Chapter 292 Targeting
Chapter 292 Targeting
Zheng Sisi also took the opportunity to leave and was seen by the Grand Princess. She called out, "Princess Anping, please stay."
Zheng Sisi had no choice but to stay with her sisters. She also wanted to see what the Grand Princess would say. After all, she was the one who offended Princess Jiaoyang, and she believed that the news had already been passed on to the Grand Princess.
The eldest princess took a few steps closer, looked at Zheng Sisi for a moment, and then said, "I heard that it was the method you mentioned that helped the Third Prince save the young master of the Gu family."
This was seen by everyone, and Zheng Sisi did not deny it: "Replying to the Grand Princess, yes."
The Grand Princess asked again: "Where did Princess Anping learn this method? I have never heard of it in Great Viet."
Zheng Sisi frowned. What did the Grand Princess mean? Did she want to accuse herself of being a spy for another country when Dai Viet didn't have a method of attacking her?
Zheng Sisi said calmly: "This method was taught by my master. He knows everything about astronomy and geography. Besides, the territory of Great Vietnam is huge, so it is understandable that the Grand Princess doesn't know some things."
You accuse me of a crime, and I say you are an ignorant woman and I will make you die of anger.
The eldest princess was indeed confused. "What an ignorant girl, and so sharp-tongued. I just want to thank Princess Anping for helping me today, and saving the princess's mansion from some trouble."
Zheng Sisi replied, "It's a trivial matter. The Grand Princess doesn't need to worry about it. Besides, it was the Third Prince who did the work. If the Grand Princess must express gratitude, she should thank the Third Prince."
The Grand Princess raised her chin and said, "I will naturally go to thank Zhen'er. I would also like to remind Princess Anping that a divorced woman should not show off in public, so as not to embarrass herself."
Zheng Sisi was so angry that she laughed. The three little sisters standing next to her also looked unhappy. Rose and Lily clenched their fists. If the eldest princess said anything unpleasant again, they would not be able to help but hit her.
Zheng Sisi smiled and said, "I didn't expect the Grand Princess to be a two-faced person. It seems that I came to your Grand Princess's Mansion because you issued an invitation. Now you say that I am ostentatious and embarrassing. Don't you think you are ridiculous? Also, I am divorced, so what? I live my own life and didn't eat the food in your Princess's Mansion. Oh, no, I ate it today, but I gave gifts. How should this be counted? And based on my understanding of the laws and decrees of the Dai Viet Dynasty, in order to increase the population of Dai Viet, the emperor and court officials all encourage divorced women and widows to remarry. Could it be that the Grand Princess is dissatisfied with the emperor and the court's decrees and is taking it out on me."
The Grand Princess didn't expect Zheng Sisi to accuse her of such a big crime with just a few words. If it got out, the emperor and the court officials would stare at her, and the censors would also make up stories about her. The Grand Princess was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. Today, she was hosting a banquet, and she couldn't do anything to this girl. She had to take the loss.
A maid came over, bowed to the Grand Princess and said, "Grand Princess, it's time for lunch. The kitchen has prepared the food. May I ask if you would like to start the meal?"
The maid arrived at the right time, giving the Grand Princess a way out. The Grand Princess said, "Go and inform the distinguished guests that the feast can begin."
The maid took the order and went to inform people everywhere.
The Grand Princess said to Zheng Sisi and the others, "Princess Anping, I was joking just now. I heard that Princess Anping is different from others, so I came here to test her. It is indeed true. It is time for dinner. Please go to the banquet hall to eat. There will be some exchanges with the male guests later. Ladies, please seize the opportunity!"
Zheng Zhimin, Li Ziyan, and He Qianqian said at the same time: "Thank you, Princess Grand Princess, for your reminder."
The eldest princess raised her hand, made a gesture of invitation, and then took the lead to leave.
Zheng Sisi and others followed, but they didn't walk too fast, and there was a long distance between them.
When no one else could hear the voices of the few people, Zheng Zhimin said worriedly: "Sister Sisi, what should we do? The eldest princess and Princess Jiaoyang seem to be targeting you. You should sit with me next to the eldest aunt later. It will be safer."
He Qianqian and Li Ziyan also nodded in agreement.
Zheng Sisi shook her head: "It's okay. I haven't offended them, so why are they targeting me?"
