Lin Chujiu's goal of showing off affection was so obvious. To prevent herself from being stipulated again, Princess Fushou Zhang changed the topic, took out the attitude of a host of the banquet, and invited everyone inside.
At this time, there was still no meal, the banquet was not yet officially started. Everyone sat around Lin Chujiu. The Crown Prince wanted to say something, but he saw Princess Fushou Zhang squinted her eyes at him. The Crown Prince immediately closed his mouth, but it can be seen on his face that he was uncomfortable. Then, he sat on the left side of Lin Chujiu.
Lin Chujiu took advantage of her title, so even if he was the Crown Prince, he can't tell her to get up. Who let Lin Chujiu become Xiao Wangfei and his imperial aunt? Even if she was young, she was his senior whether he like it or not.
Among these group of people, Lin Furen and Lin Wanting, naturally, has the lowest status. Their identity as the Prime Minister's wife and second miss was enough to be looked upon in the capital, but it was nothing compared to the group of princes and princesses.
However, Princess Fushou Zhang didn't let them sit by rank. She let Lin Wanting sat next to the Crown Prince. She even said: "Everyone sits casually, we are all family, so you don't need to pay attention to false rituals here."
Xiao Zian originally planned to get up and gave his position to Lin Chujiu. However, after hearing this, he sat down spontaneously, and then poured Lin Chujiu a tea: "Imperial Aunt, please… …"
Lin Chujiu picked up the teacup, but before she could thank Xiao Zian, she heard Princess Fushou Zhang complain: "Zian, you really care about Chujiu. You don't let your imperial aunt thirsty."
No matter how people listen to this, it sounds ambiguous!
Everyone turned their eyes slightly and looked at Xiao Zian and Lin Chujiu. Both Lin Furen and Lin Wanting didn't dare to make an opinion because of their identities, but the Crown Prince despised them. On the contrary, Prince Wen relied on his straightforward nature and asked carefully. : "Zian, do you have a good relationship with imperial aunt?"
*Clang* Lin Chujiu put down her teacup with a cold face, while Xiao Zian had emotionless look in the face. His heart was a bit sour, but he said indifferently: "Imperial Brother Wen, imperial uncle, and imperial aunt saved my life."
"Oh…" Prince Wen nodded his head and cleverly stopped.
Prince Wen was a grown-up man so he didn't think too much. However, Princess Fushou Zhang was different… …
As an expert in love affairs, she doesn't believe that she was wrong. Xiao Zian's eyes looked different when he looked at Lin Chujiu. Even if he doesn't look at her as a lover, it wasn't also like respect to an elder or a benefactor.
Seeing Xiao Zian's real intention was exposed, Princess Fushou Zhang ambiguously said: "Zian you have the heart. Chujiu saved you a long time ago, but you still remember it. I never saw you being considerate like this before. When Tianyao left the capital, I notice that you become so considerate to Chujiu."
"Be careful with your words, Eldest Imperial Aunt." Xiao Zian's face slightly became tight and sullen.
Princess Fushou Zhang was not afraid, so she pretended to be surprised: "Why? Am I wrong? You have been very close to Chujiu recently. Zian, as your aunt, I advise you, although Chujiu is your aunt, you should be aware of the difference between men and women. You should pay attention to your actions. If an outsider sees you like this, they might think differently."
Xiao Zian's face drastically changed. He was about to say something, but he heard Lin Chujiu said: "Eldest Princess, you think too much. Prince Zian lives in the palace, while I live in Xiao Wangfu. How can I get close to him? Besides, although I'm young, I am his elder. Eldest Princess, you mustn't say this thing later, other people might think that you're saying that wangye is too old to be worthy of me."
"I'm not… …" When Princess Fushou Zhang's words were distorted by Lin Chujiu, she wanted to explain immediately, but Lin Chujiu said after pausing a bit: "Speaking of being intimate, the Crown Prince is very intimate to the eldest princess. I remember that shortly after the Crown Prince spent a night to the eldest princess's mansion, you also spent a night in his highness's palace, right? In other words, the eldest princess and the crown prince is so close to that you live together."
What Lin Chujiu said were facts, and it's a pretty common thing at an ordinary time. However, at this moment, especially when she said the last sentence, Prince Wen almost choke when he heard those words.
Live together?
These words… … can easily be misunderstood.
Prince Wen didn't dare to speak, but he looked at the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince didn't think that there was a problem with it, but he felt uncomfortable when Prince Wen stared at him. On the other hand, Princess Fushou Zhang took advantage of it: "The Crown Prince is my nephew. What's wrong with me living in his palace?"
"Nothing, but the benevolent sees benevolence, the wise sees wisdom. Oh, there is one more thing— the whore sees lasciviousness." After she said the last sentence, Lin Chujiu laughed at her own words.
*Cough cough cough* The Crown Prince was choked. His face turned red from coughing. Lin Wanting, who sat beside him, hurriedly handed him water: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
"No, it's nothing serious." The Crown Prince took a sip of water and calmed down.
Lin Wanting sat down neatly and looked at Lin Chujiu with eyes full of blame, but didn't say anything.
Lin Chujiu didn't pay attention to her. She just took a glance at her.
Princess Fushou Zhang also asked the Crown Prince a few words with concern, and when she determined that the Crown Prince was fine, she glared at Lin Chujiu fiercely. Seeing her not sorry at all, she angrily said: "You dare to say such dirty words, are you not afraid to stain people's ears?"
Princess Fushou Zhang said out loud without feeling guilt or embarrassment.
Lin Chujiu looked at Princess Fushou Zhang with a smile and said lightly: "The words are created for people to speak. Some people speak good words and some are dirty words, right? It's only a joke, so why the eldest princess take it seriously?"
Lin Chujiu was sitting upright, her hands were folded in front of her lower abdomen, looking all dignified.
Princess Wen watched silently, then turned his head, pretending that he didn't hear anything. However, Xiao Zian was very supportive: "What Imperial Aunt said is right. The word is used to speak. Just like a knife, some people use it to save people, some use it to kill. The fault does not lie to the knife itself, but to the people who use it."
Xiao Zian spoke lightly, but there was a smile on his lips. He then looked at Princess Fushou Zhang with no emotion. Seeing Princess Fushou Zhang out of breath in anger, but she didn't dare to make a sound. He found it more interesting.
After eating many losses, the Crown Prince's face looked very ugly. Seeing Lin Furen sitting near him, he gave her a look, indicating her to talk to Lin Chujiu, but… …
As soon as Lin Furen saw the looked in the Crown Prince's eyes, she hurriedly swept her eyes away and acted like she didn't see anything.
She was willing to do anything to get an opportunity to preach Lin Chujiu, so that she will lose a face, but… …
