Chapter 4408 Oiran (96)
The princess has been ill for half a month, and there is no way to attend the birthday of the prince. Everyone knows this.
Regarding the matter of Concubine Meng's housekeeper in the Prince's Mansion, in fact, many people heard the rumors and thought it was just a joke.
The emperor knew about this, and he felt very speechless at the time. The prince was getting more and more confused.
Taking advantage of the fact that today was Tang Wenpan's birthday, the emperor of course had to arrange for someone to send something over, so he asked people to choose two more items, which were specially given to the Crown Princess.
As for that Concubine Meng, I'm sorry, but I can't see this person in his eyes.
If it wasn't for two people who couldn't handle it, how could that person stay in the capital. It was also thanks to Jingshan that he didn't care, so it wasn't that difficult to do.
In fact, many people will not attend in person, especially those clan princes and eldest princesses who are higher than the prince, unless they are very close to the prince.
Most of the time, arrange for someone to deliver the gift, and send two words of blessing and it's over.
Some came over for a face-to-face, took a sip of wine, and left.
Tang Guo didn't receive the invitation from the Prince's Mansion. It stands to reason that everyone in the royal family will receive it. After all, this is a courtesy.
If the princess is in charge of this matter, no matter what, the person who should send the invitation will send it.
However, the person who did this was Meng Shiyin. She privately believed that their relationship with Tang Guo was not good, and they had nothing to do with each other.
Whether it's Tang Wenpan or she, they still have a bit of a holiday with Tang Guo. How could it be possible to invite an enemy over for a birthday? Even if you invite, the other party may not come, so why bother yourself.
There are so many invitations, and the servants in the house may not all know it.
But Tang Guo still sent someone to deliver things, not to give the prince a birthday present, but to hear that the prince was ill and had been bedridden for half a month.
For such a big event, of course, I have to ask someone to send something to express my condolences.
When they arrived at the gate of the Prince's Mansion and were asked about the invitation, Tang Guo's people were already prepared and only said: "Invitation? I ordered to visit the Crown Princess. I heard that the Crown Princess was in bed for half a month and was very ill. Do you still need an invitation to see the Crown Princess?"
This man had a weird expression, and after what he had to say, everyone around him heard it clearly.
So, Princess Jingshan, did you not receive the invitation?
Immediately, countless people's impression of Meng Shiyin was even worse. With such a big name as Princess Jingshan, who does not dare to send invitations to a big event? Whether people come or not, invitations must be sent.
You don't send her if the others have given it away. It's a coincidence. They heard that the Crown Princess was ill, and they arranged for someone to come and visit.
When the housekeeper saw this, his heart skipped a beat. Isn't there an invitation from Princess Jingshan? He remembered that on the list he gave to Concubine Meng, there was Princess Jingshan, and it was listed in the front, so the big words should not be overlooked, right?
No matter what everyone thought, the person arranged by Tang Guo was personally brought in by the housekeeper to visit the Crown Princess and sent the gift to the other party before leaving.
The seats held by Meng Shiyin were not bad, everything was good.
But it also gives people a feeling that life in the Prince's Mansion seems to be very luxurious. It costs a lot of silver taels for such a large space, right?
But at the birthday banquet, there were small mistakes from time to time, although it was innocuous, it still made people think that Meng Shiyin was not good.
Especially before, they had attended the prince's birthday banquet, which was hosted by the prince's concubine at that time, and it was not comparable to Meng Shiyin.
What embarrassed Meng Shiyin was that the emperor gave things to the prince and his concubine. When he came to the palace, the father-in-law also specifically asked the crown princess's condition on behalf of the emperor, but he didn't even look at her side concubine.
Even if you don't take the initiative to look at other people's expressions, you can feel their ridicule, which makes Meng Shiyin feel extremely uncomfortable.
