Seeing her like this, Lu Youyou couldn't help but ask, "Sister Xihan, do you have a crush on someone?"

Kong Xihan shook her head helplessly. It was better not to bring up the unrequited love. She was almost seventeen years old. How could the Kong family not be anxious? The marriage proposal had been brought up many times, but she had always found excuses to refuse. Fortunately, her parents were open-minded and did not force her. She wanted to wait a little longer. Maybe one day, the person in her heart would...

Lu Youyou sighed slightly, "Sister Xihan is luckier than me, you have a family that loves you."

Her father didn't give her the right to refuse the marriage with the Duke of Zhenguo.

Bai Chuxiao didn't know what to say, she could only pat her hands to comfort her. Marriage has always been a difficult issue since ancient times. She and Chu Tianze had never met before they were granted marriage, but fortunately, she was lucky...

Kong Xihan smiled bitterly, "I don't know how long I can hold on, after all, I'm really not young anymore."

Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows. She couldn't control Lu Youyou's affairs, but Sister Xihan seemed to be able to help them. What should she do?

The three of them walked side by side into the back hall. There were already many female relatives sitting in the hall. Zhang Miaoke, who was dressed extremely elegantly, sat at the top, while the wives of the Duke of Zhenguo and the Princess of Xiang sat at the bottom.

Bai Chuxiao was a little surprised that Zhang Miaoke didn't make a scene, but sat there talking to the guests with a virtuous look on her face, which made her look at her with a new eye.

Lu Youyou and Kong Xihan both bowed politely, while Bai Chuxiao nodded slightly and called out, "Princess Qi."

Zhang Miaoke saw her coming in, his expression became a little cold, "You are a guest, please sit down."

As soon as the voice fell, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said with a smile, "Youyou, come to my side quickly."

Bai Chuxiao didn't care, and she and Kong Xihan found a seat next to Princess Xiang and sat down.

Everyone was a little surprised. Why was Mrs. Wei so kind to the girl from the Lu family?

Lu Youyou had no choice but to step forward. Madam Wei held her hand and explained to everyone, "Youyou will be my daughter-in-law in the future."

"It turns out that Prince Wei is getting married."

"Congratulations, Madam Wei"

Everyone in the hall complimented her. Bai Chuxiao and Kong Xihan looked at each other and said, "I hope Youyou will have a good life in the future."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo glanced at Bai Chuxiao and the others, then patted Lu Youyou's hand and said, "Youyou, not everyone can be your friend, you know."

Lu Youyou looked unhappy. She hadn't even married yet, and now she had to control her making friends. "What does this mean, aunt?"

Is she referring to Princess Changning? Everyone is looking at the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo with interest to see what she will say next.

As expected, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo sneered again, "Not only did a lady from a noble family run to the military camp, but she also forbade her husband to take a concubine. How shameless! You must never associate with such a person. Do you understand?"

Lu Youyou lowered her head and did not reply. She gave Bai Chuxiao an apologetic look. She did not expect that Madam Wei would use her as an excuse to speak ill of Bai Chuxiao.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Mrs. Wei's words were clearly directed at Bai Chuxiao. She was really bold. This princess was always ready to kill.

Zhang Miaoke looked like she was enjoying the show. She would not say anything to stop it. She just wanted to see Bai Chuxiao being laughed at.

Kong Xihan looked unhappy, "Madam Wei, what do you mean?"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo raised her chin and said, "Who do you think you are to come and question me?"

After saying that, he looked at Bai Chuxiao again and said with a smile, "Princess Changning is so ashamed that she can't speak?"

Bai Chuxiao drank a sip of tea calmly, raised her eyes and smiled, "Oh? Why should this princess be ashamed?"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo snorted coldly, "As a woman, it is wrong not to respect women's teachings, not observe women's virtues, and not stay at home."

Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "Your Majesty has named me a princess, which is enough to show that there is no problem for me to go to the military camp. Could it be that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo is dissatisfied with Your Majesty?"

Madam Wei's face froze. "What a far-fetched argument! Then how do you explain your threat to forbid the Prince of Yan to take a concubine? This is not something a lady from a noble family would do. Do you understand the Three Obediences and Four Virtues?"

Bai Chuxiao looked at her and smiled, "Madam Zhenguo, are you speaking up for the Prince of Yan? The Prince of Yan and the nobles in the palace have no objections, so what qualifications do you have to make irresponsible comments? You just mentioned the 'Three Obediences and Four Virtues', so I would like to ask you, Madam, what are the four virtues?"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said disdainfully, "Of course it's a woman's virtue, a woman's words, a woman's work, and a woman's appearance."

Bai Chuxiao spoke again, "What is woman's words?"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo snorted coldly, "Choose your words carefully, don't say bad words, speak only when necessary, and don't be mean to others. This is what women say." She is the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo after all. How could she not know the rules of women's boudoirs? She wanted to see what tricks Bai Chuxiao was going to play.

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo just came up and humiliated this princess. Is it okay for a lady to speak ill of this princess?"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo froze, and then snorted, "Princess Changning is really sharp-tongued."

Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "It's not as good as Madam Wei's long tongue."

Isn't this just calling Madam Wei a gossip? Everyone lowered their heads and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.

Princess Xiang didn't care and burst out laughing. The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo looked a little angry, but she was the princess after all, so she didn't dare to scold him.

But she was too embarrassed to stay any longer, so she twisted her handkerchief and left angrily with Lu Youyou.

Regarding the behavior of the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, Bai Chuxiao only wanted to say lightly, "Psycho!"

The hall fell silent for a moment, and Ling Xiang beside him suddenly asked with a smile, "How is the princess these days?"

Bai Chuxiao nodded. Princess Lingxiang was indeed well-mannered. She didn't talk much and always had a smile on her face. However, she had made many suggestions for the Tianxiang Tower, and Prince Xiang seemed to trust her. She was not simple...

"Princess Xiang, are you used to it?" Bai Chuxiao also started to greet him.

"His Royal Highness Prince Xiang treats Ling Xiang very well"

After saying that, he added, "We are going back to our fiefdom soon. I guess we won't be able to see the princess for a long time."

Surprise flashed in Bai Chuxiao's eyes. Did she miss something in the past few days? Why did the news come one after another? Would King Xiang be willing to return to his fiefdom?

Ling Xiang did not shy away from what she said, and Zhang Miaoke at the top of the table could not help but look over. You know, Chu Tianling might want to stay in the capital for a few more days after all this.

"Fifth sister-in-law, are you so anxious?"

Ling Xiang said nonchalantly, "I will go back sooner or later. I also want to go and take a look."

Bai Chuxiao concealed her doubts and asked calmly, "When do you leave?"

Ling Xiang smiled and said, "After Bei Yan left..."

Bai Chuxiao chuckled, "Then I wish you, Princess Xiang, a safe journey in advance."
