900 Wife and Concubine (5)

With the round-faced girl as a contrast, when the young girl walked in, everyone was stunned.

She was wearing a dress with a lotus and butterflies embroidered on it. It was not gorgeous, but it was not simple either. She only had a phoenix-shaped gem on her head, but it made her look noble.

This young girl had crescent eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a small and straight nose, a red mouth, and an extremely delicate face. She looked like a very gentle person, but with her chin slightly raised and her back straight, she walked over with a faint smile. Every step she took made people's hearts tremble. They couldn't help but look up at her, as if she was a royal.

Today, Princess Consort Rui and Fourth Miss Lu were both wearing purple dresses. Fourth Miss Lu's purple was light, and Princess Consort Rui's purple was dark. Young girls looked gentle and lively in light purple, but in dark purple, they looked old and unfashionable. However, today, Shen Miao's purple dress seemed to be tailor-made for her. She had a graceful beauty that was unparalleled. In comparison, Fourth Miss Lu's dress was like the one worn by the performer in a brothel.

Lu Wan'er had always been used to being the center of attention. She did not expect someone to steal her thunder today. What was more, it was Shen Miao, who had snatched her position as the princess consort.

Madam Lu's eyes flashed and she smiled. Princess Consort, you're finally here. The madams are all waiting for you.

Shen Miao smiled and said unhurriedly, I didn't expect the madams to come so early. The invitation said that the banquet would start at nine o'clock. His Highness Prince Rui asked me to stay for breakfast. It's all His Highness's fault. I should be able to make it in time if I left at seven.

Madam Lu's heart skipped a beat. She did not expect Shen Miao to say it so openly. As expected, as soon as she said that, the surrounding madams looked at her differently.

Shen Miao was an outsider after all. Although those madams were always biased towards the Lu family, they still found it ridiculous that the Lu family would use such a childish trick. Madam Lu also felt a little regretful. She originally just wanted to invite Shen Miao over and intimidate her, but she couldn't stop Lu Wan'er from tampering with the invitation. When Shen Miao said that on the invitation, it was said that the banquet would start at nine, everyone present knew very well what the Lu family was up to and they found it funny.

If Shen Miao told Prince Rui about this later, how could a smart person like Prince Rui not understand? If he was unhappy with the Lu family because of this, the loss would be greater than the gain.

Lu Wan'er couldn't stand Shen Miao doing well. She sized up Shen Miao and said, Princess Consort Rui, why did you come in without asking the servant to inform us?

It was indeed considered rude to come in without asking the servant to inform the madam of the mansion in advance. Shen Miao looked at Lu Wan'er and smiled. That's exactly what I am going to say. It's really a little dangerous for you to leave the door wide open. She smiled gently. So I asked my guards to watch the door for you to prevent strange people from sneaking in.
