Shen Qinglan took a sip of tea and didn't want to pay attention to the two chattering at all.
Cui Ru stomped her feet angrily, "What a merchant woman, she doesn't know the rules when she enters the palace! Do you understand what order is?"
"I'm afraid you are the one who doesn't understand the rules?" Shen Qinglan looked at her coldly.
"Who do you say doesn't understand the rules? You, a merchant woman, met the daughter of the Shangshu family's prostitute, and you didn't pay respects?" Chu Xiang said.
"Do I still have to pay homage to you? The servant's daughter?" Shen Qinglan said.
"That's natural!" Chu Xiang looked proud.
"Oh, are your ears all right? I am the Lord of the Township who was conferred by His Majesty personally, and I am in the fourth rank. Although the two of you are officials, you have no titles. There is no need to salute to you two, but you should salute when you see me." Shen Qinglan glanced at them with a slight smile, then glanced at the ground with squinting eyes, "What? Is your leg bad? Salute?"
"You, you are worthy of us saluting?" Cui Ru said angrily.
"That's right, so what if you're the lord of the country? Can you command others?" Chu Xiang said.
Shen Qinglan picked up the teacup again, and said, "I didn't instruct you, it was you who insisted on me saluting, that's why I had a good talk with you."
"Why are you showing off your power here? Is there a county lord sitting here? What are you?" Chu Xiang said, looking at the woman in azure brocade.
"That's right! The Anning County Lord is here, and you, a township lord, have the nerve to show off? What a joke!" Cui Ru said.
The Anning County Lord did not speak, but just drank tea and ate cakes silently. Shen Qinglan walked over, saluted her, and said, "Pingyang Township Lord, I have met the Anning County Lord."
The Anning County Lord seemed to be two years older than Shen Qinglan, she nodded and said politely: "Your Majesty, you don't need to be too polite."
Seeing this scene, Chu Xiang and Cui Ru were speechless, only to hear County Lord Anning say to Shen Qinglan again: "Mr. Xiang, you don't have to take my existence into account when dealing with such blind people."
Chu Xiang hurriedly said: "Master, we..."
"Shut up!" County Lord Anning interrupted her, "Do you understand the rules? He is a township lord, and you are just officials. You are domineering and uttering wild words in Zening Palace. How many brains do you have? "
"If you go back to the county lord, it's Shen Qinglan who was rude outside Zening Hall!" Chu Xiang argued.
"You still dare to slander? Get out of here, the county lord, and disturb my pleasure of drinking tea!" Anning County lord said.
Chu Xiang and Cui Ru didn't expect that the head of Anning County would support Shen Qinglan. Her family is obviously just a merchant, so how can the enemy benefit more from being friends with officials and family members like them?
Although they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to disobey the order of the county lord, so they had to leave with a sad face.
Seeing them leave, County Lord Anning looked at Shen Qinglan with a smile, "Don't pay attention to them, sit down!"
"Thank you, Qinglan, the county magistrate, for upholding justice."
"I just wanted to watch the fun, but I didn't expect them to mention me in an attempt to take advantage of others, so I won't spoil them! Mr. Xiang, don't be restrained, sit down quickly."
Shen Qinglan sat down as the hospitality was hard to come by.
County Lord An Ning looked at her and exclaimed: "You are really beautiful, no wonder Cousin Shu likes it!"
Shen Qinglan was surprised, "Huh?"
"Brother Shun has already told me that he has someone he likes and wants to marry as a princess, so he asked me to come over, but he is afraid that someone in the palace will bully you, so he wants me to take care of you. I don't think you are I'm weak, so I didn't want to help at first, if I took the initiative to help you speak, those people would definitely be suspicious." Anning County Master said.
"So that's it." Shen Qinglan chuckled, never expecting Zhao Shun to be so thoughtful.
"Cousin Shun has arranged everything for you. Future sister-in-law, An Ning will take care of you in the future!"
Shen Qinglan didn't know how to answer the words, so she could only respond with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, let's drink tea!"
"Thank you, magistrate."
Shen Qinglan picked up the teacup and took a sip, the Anning County Lord said: "You don't need to call me the County Lord in the future, my name is Zhao Anning, you can just call me An Ning."
At this time, the edict-delivering servant came over with the queen's order, and shouted: "Xiu Nu listens to the order."
Zhao Anning smiled and said, "Let's go, Princess."
All the beautiful girls gathered around and knelt down one after another.
The servant shook the floating dust, and said: "His Royal Highness Yizhi, Shen Qinglan, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, is a gentleman of Pingyang Township.
Shen Qinglan stood up and kowtowed again, "Thank you for your grace, Your Highness the Queen."
The servant smiled, and handed the decree to her, "Congratulations, Mr. Xiang, as for the details of the wedding, His Royal Highness King Bin will come to the door in person to discuss with the elders of your mansion."
"Thank you sir."
Shen Qinglan stood up, and the beautiful girls around her were almost dumbfounded. Even if a merchant girl was named a township monarch, she was not worthy of the county king at all!
"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Royal Highness also has rewards, which have already been delivered to your homes." After finishing speaking, the servant turned to Shen Qinglan and said, "Your Majesty, let's go back to the mansion. Your Majesty heard that you have spent tens of thousands of money, and condolences to the casualties in Kyoto The family of the soldier, Longyan Dayue, has already sent many rewards, and there is also a sealed edict, and the servant who delivered the edict will leave soon."
"Thank you for letting me know."
After the servant left, Shen Qinglan found Chu Xiang and Cui Ru staring at her viciously in a blink of an eye, and everyone started talking at this time.
"Prince Bin actually chose her to be his concubine? But what's the use of a merchant girl?"
"The Shen family is the richest man, at the head of the imperial merchants, even if they come from a bad background, they are rich!"
"That's right, but King Bin didn't choose a single concubine! This is unreasonable!"
"It's more than unreasonable. Everyone present knows that King Bin is very beautiful. Now he doesn't choose a concubine, which is also unreasonable."
"It is precisely because of her beauty that she chose Shen Qinglan."
"Sigh... this trip was in vain, His Royal Highness King Bin is the most beautiful of all the royal family members."
……
Shen Qinglan walked forward sullenly, and the discussion behind her continued uninterrupted until she left the gate of Zening Palace.
Yan'er immediately stepped forward and asked, "Miss, how are you doing? What does Your Highness the Queen say?"
"Hmm... look at this!"
Shen Qinglan took out the queen's edict, and Yan'er said excitedly: "Could it be possible that I will change my name to Wangfei in the future?"
"That's okay, whatever you call me now, you can call me whatever you want in the future." Shen Qinglan laughed.
"Let's go, I guess the decree has already been spread to the mansion, and I don't know how the ladies and gentlemen are feeling now." Yan'er said.
"I guess they must be very worried about me." Shen Qinglan sighed.
"Sisi!"
Zhao Shun's voice came, and at the moment he was standing at the main entrance of Zening Hall, walking in her direction.
