Chapter 359

The facts were exactly as Princess Consort of Qi had anticipated.

After Aunt Qiu came over, she whispered a few words to Consort Qi in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Consort Qi almost changed her expression.

In the end, still afraid that others would notice something amiss, she struggled to control her expression.

However, the handkerchief clenched in her sleeve still betrayed Consort Qi's true emotions.

She still wore a faint smile on her face, but when whispering to Aunt Qiu she gritted her teeth and said, "In a moment I will have Meng Ce Fei come over, properly comfort the person, investigate what needs to be investigated, and silence what needs to be silenced."

For Aunt Qiu, handling such unexpected situations at the banquet came naturally and smoothly.

Upon hearing the consort's words, she promptly responded and quickly went to handle it.

The noble ladies were still listening to the performance.

It's normal for occasional mishaps to occur at the banquet.

Every household has its own schemes and thoughts.

But whether they understand or not, they might end up scheming at someone else's banquet.

The Qi mansion places special importance on the newly arrived young county lady, so everyone understands that unless it's an urgent matter, there's no need to scheme now, lest they be held accountable by the Qi mansion later.

Of course, there are always a few muddle-headed people who think they can profit from the chaos and avoid blame from the Qi mansion.

Aunt Qiu quickly asked Meng Ce Fei to step out for a quiet word.

After they had moved far enough away from the crowd, even the sound of the opera had lowered considerably, Aunt Qiu then carefully explained the situation: 'The Second Miss of the Su household had drunk a little too much, got alcohol on her clothes, and wanted to go back to the rear courtyard to change, but she didn't expect to run into Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren on the way; after a brief chat, perhaps unable to hold her liquor, she couldn't stand upright, so Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren helped her back to the rear courtyard.'

'While they were changing clothes, they almost bumped into the eldest son of the Jin Yang Hou Fu, but the servants reacted quickly and stopped him in time, and with Princess Shunyang also present, they managed to avoid embarrassment.'

'Right now the Second Miss of Su feels wronged, with no one to comfort her; the Princess Consort thought to have the consort's daughter temporarily go and soothe her, so the little miss won't get stuck in her thoughts and become despondent.'

……

Since she was speaking about someone from their own household, Aunt Qiu's words were not exactly polite.

Meng Ce Fei listened and was quite surprised.

But after thinking again, Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren……

That actually doesn't seem all that surprising.

After all, some people lack brains and also lack any spine.

Despite being frequently bullied by her natal family, she still ends up willing to sacrifice herself for them, scheming against others.

Meng Ce Fei doesn't believe it; the eldest son of the Jin Yang Hou Fu really almost went to the wrong place.

Who knows, they might have planned it all along.

Otherwise, how could one explain that Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren, who usually isn't very familiar with them, would take the initiative to approach? Moreover, they are quite good at picking people—they chose a young lady from the Da Zhang Gong Zhu Fu.

After hearing this, Meng Ce Fei made up her mind and gestured to Aunt Qiu: 'I'll go take a look now; you go help the Princess Consort with her affairs.'

Aunt Qiu quickly bowed and said: 'Thank you for your trouble, Meng Ce Fei.'

Meng Ce Fei waved her hand indifferently and quickly led her people to the rear courtyard.

Looking at the situation, this matter seems off.

Why would the eldest son of the Jin Yang Hou Fu be walking properly toward the ladies' quarters in the rear courtyard? At this moment, Sui Sui was being held by Prince Qi, walking toward the rear courtyard as well, also coming to deal with this matter.

Aunt Qiu made two preparations: on one side she reported to the Princess Consort here, and on the other she also told Sui Si the situation.

Xu Mingxian, after all, is a male guest who mistakenly entered the rear courtyard; someone needs to come over and persuade him to leave.

It is said he drank quite a bit and is feeling dazed.

The servants could barely stop him.

Sui Si was uneasy; after hearing the news, he found an opportunity to tell Prince Qi.

Prince Qi heard it and his face darkened on the spot.

Prince Qing saw his expression and guessed something was up, whispering a few words in his ear.

Prince Qi also didn't hide it from this brother; he simply explained the situation. Prince Qing listened, thought it over, and then tentatively asked: '……When we go back, should we……'

Prince Qing made a gesture of tidying up under the table.

Prince Qi heard it, his brow twitched, and he nodded without changing expression: 'Then it will be troublesome.'

Prince Qing shook his head indifferently.

Sui Sui didn't understand the situation; she looked left and right but still didn't get it.

Prince Qi was uneasy; after thinking it over, he still decided to get up and go have a look.

He knew that if this matter were reported to the Princess Consort, the other side would naturally handle it.

But Xu Mingxian had rushed into the rear courtyard……

Damn it.

What does he think the Qi Wang Fu is? I heard he even got drunk and caused a scene?

What is he trying to do? Ruin his little banquet? The Jin Yang Hou Fu is indeed born to clash with our Qi Wang Fu! Damn it! If it weren't that taking action would affect the banquet, Prince Qi would love to draw his sword and take care of the person right now.

Afraid of frightening Sui Sui, Prince Qi suppressed his anger, held the child, and hurried toward the rear courtyard.

Feng Xuanrui and Feng Xuanbin wanted to follow, but Prince Qing stopped them.

Uncle Prince Qing is still fierce; the two brothers glanced left and right, not daring to say more.

Feng Xuanze and Feng Xuan Yu asked their teacher for leave and returned last night.

Now that Prince Qi is away, Feng Xuanze is bringing a few younger brothers along, smiling as he socializes, also soothing everyone's emotions.

Seeing the elegant and composed Feng Xuanze, many people couldn't help feeling jealous.

The foolish Prince Qi actually managed to produce a good son!

It truly makes people grit their teeth with envy! The envied Prince Qi is now holding Sui Sui and heading to the rear courtyard.

Originally Prince Qi did not want to bring the child over, fearing it would sully the child's eyes.

As a result, when he turned around, Sui Sui suddenly said, "There's a bad person."

Prince Qi wasn't sure whether that bad person was referring to Xu Mingxian.

After thinking it over, Prince Qi decided to hold the person and come over.

He just watched from afar, letting Sui Si handle the matter.

When Prince Qi arrived, Meng Ce Fei was already handling the matter.

Xu Mingxian had indeed drunk too much and was dazed, but only he himself knew whether he was conscious.

When Meng Ce Fei came over, he was still drunk and acting crazy.

Don't be fooled by Meng Ce Fei's usual soft-spoken manner; her temperament is also Gentleness.

When handling these matters, she showed no mercy whatsoever; she merely gave a glance to the aunt behind her, and the other party immediately signaled people to step forward—several sturdy servant women swiftly covered Xu Mingxian's mouth and dragged him away.

The servant women were stout and strong; someone like Xu Mingxian, weakened by drink and lust, could not possibly resist them.

Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren looked at the situation, wanting to step forward out of concern, but Meng Ce Fei smiled and walked over, saying, "It's the Wangfu's oversight that let a male guest barge into the rear courtyard, disturbing the lady—Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren, are you still alright?"

Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren wanted to say it wasn't necessary, that she hadn't been frightened.

Just meeting Meng Ce Fei's smiling face, Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren lowered her head slightly, flustered, and gently shook it: "I'm fine."

Wanting to explain for her Natal family's nephew, she just couldn't get the words out.

Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Thus we will output: Xiefuren despondently thought……

This time returning to the mansion, if her mother learned of her nephew's grievances, this anger would likely be taken out on her again.

Mother, she would be disappointed in her again.

Second watch.
