Chapter 356: Feeling a Bit Guilty

The princess had already avoided the topic several times in the morning. Seeing that Lady Huguo was still insisting on bringing it up, she made up her mind, "Yes, Yu'er will be twenty in October."

"A few days ago, my mother wrote to me from the capital, saying that she had found a marriage for Yu'er."

"My Lord and I are very satisfied. After Yu'er's birthday, it's time to arrange his marriage."

"What!" Lady Huguo couldn't control her emotions for a while and blurted out.

Shen Qingluan, who was beside her, had been paying attention to the princess's words. She was holding a teacup in her hand. When she heard this, her hand trembled and the teacup fell to the ground.

The ground was paved with bluestone slabs. The teacup fell with a crisp "clang" sound, and the noble ladies around looked over.

Shen Qingluan knew that this was in public. She didn't want to lose face in front of everyone, and tried her best to cover up her gaffe, but this was too unexpected for her. No matter how hard she tried, the muscles on her face could not be controlled, and her whole face looked very hideous.

The princess glanced at the Lady Protector of the Country, then at Shen Qingluan, feeling somewhat guilty.

Lady Protector of the Country's hands were still trembling slightly, and her chest was also rising and falling, but her voice had calmed down, "I wonder which girl the Lady of Duke Qin has taken a fancy to?"

The princess smiled, "This is still under discussion. For the sake of the girl's reputation, it is not easy to reveal it now. We will know in the future."

Lady Protector of the Country was very angry when she heard this.

This princess has been hanging on her family, dragging her Qingluan to an old age, and now she is actually going to hire another noblewoman from the capital. How can she not be annoyed?

She endured and endured, and finally couldn't help whispering: "Lady Princess, you didn't say that last time. Last time you said Qingluan was very good, if you could marry her home as a daughter-in-law, it would be great-"

The princess laughed dryly twice, "Haha, it's just a joke, Lady Protector of the Country, don't take it seriously."

Fuck you!

Lady Protector of the Country really wanted to grab the teacup next to her and throw it at the princess' face.

The princess suddenly rubbed her temples, "Oh, I got up early today and have a headache."

"Madame Xu, go and ask someone to prepare a sedan chair. I have to go back and rest."

Madame Xu quickly ordered the maid to go out.

The princess stood up, looking weak and helpless, "Then I will go back to the mansion first. Excuse me."

Madam Huguo couldn't even get up to see her off. She stared at the princess' back and watched her walk out of the flower hall.

Shen Qingluan was even more unbearable than Madam Huguo. She didn't know whether she should cry or smash everything to pieces.

Years of wishes were shattered in one day. Few people can bear this blow.

Seeing that the princess had already reached the door of the flower hall, Shen Qingluan didn't know where she got the courage from. She stood up suddenly and walked towards the door quickly.

The ladies in the flower hall were a little confused. The princess suddenly left the table. Madam Huguo and Miss Shen's faces changed drastically. There must be something wrong here.

There have been rumors that Miss Shen is going to be the Crown Prince's consort. Could it be that something went wrong with this marriage?

Everyone had their own guesses, but no one dared to say them. The atmosphere in the flower hall was heavy for a while.

Xiao Xuan sat on the side of the male guests, watching the princess leave, and then saw Shen Qingluan follow her out with a ferocious look on her face. The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up. It seemed that his time was coming.

Shen Qingluan caught up with the princess and suddenly blocked her in front of her, saying with a distorted face: "Princess, I don't know what's wrong with Qingluan that she doesn't meet the princess's eyes?"
