Chapter 96 Envy and Anger

Princess Pingning felt very unhappy when she heard that Duke Qi was being friendly with him again. She glared at Duke Qi coldly and said:

"Would I be so angry if it were the two boys from the Guangsheng family? Your Qi Yuanruo wants to bring the three girls from the Sheng family over too!"

Princess Pingning grew up in the palace and has a clear understanding of these inner affairs.
  Some women will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, and they will climb up when they seize the opportunity.

The family status of the Sheng family and Duke Qi's family were too far apart. She didn't want to give the Sheng family any thoughts or opportunities.
  If there hadn't been a scholar Zhuang in the Sheng family who was related to Qi Heng's imperial examination, she would never have agreed to the Qi family's interaction with the Sheng family!

Duke Qi's personality is not that delicate, and he doesn't think that much. Hearing this, he smiled and said without knowing why:

"Then bring it together, it will be lively and lively when there are more people!
  Speaking of which, Heng'er has never brought a classmate to our house as a guest. We shouldn't be too harsh on him. I think it doesn't hurt to agree once or twice! "

Princess Pingning was so angry at Duke Qi's words that she almost turned blue. She turned around and glared at Duke Qi coldly and cursed:
  "Did you drink too much? What is the family background of the Sheng family?
  A little Seungnao! What qualifications does his girl have to be on the lintel of our Qi family?
  If there is one, there will be two, and if there are two, there will be three. By then, all the daughters of cats and dogs can come to join our family.
  Think about it! Can this hole be opened? "

Only then did Duke Qi know what Princess Pingning was thinking. It turned out that he was afraid of sending a misunderstanding to the Sheng family, so he simply closed the door.
  However, Qi Guogong himself felt that Princess Pingning was making a fuss, and it was just a normal social interaction.

How could there be so many scruples?

Thinking that the fate of myself and my son Qi Heng were tightly controlled and had no chance to come into contact with this wonderful world,

Duke Guo of Qi couldn't help but murmured a little,
  "Well...it's said that the Sheng family and the Xu family are also relatives!

The old lady from the Sheng family is the direct aunt of the boy from the Xu family. I heard that the boy from the Xu family even came to visit her in person! "

The meaning is obvious. Xu Wenhui is so powerful and even visited her old lady in person. You are disgusted by this!

Princess Pingning also paused slightly when she heard Qi Guogong talking about the Xu family.
  She is smarter than Duke Qi and understands the Qi family’s situation best.
  It looks glamorous, but actually has no real power.
  That is to say, she just managed to maintain her dignity by relying on her relationship with the officials and the queen.

She yearns for and envies families like the Xu family who hold real power.

But immediately thinking about the Wang family's affairs, Princess Pingning understood a truth and immediately retorted:

"Isn't the Wang family also related? Wasn't it beaten by the Xu family?

Therefore, this kind of crooked relative is of no use. It must be married to the main family! "Speaking of this, Princess Pingning said with a little regret:
  "I have met that eldest girl from the Xu family. She is top-notch in appearance and conduct. It's a pity that she married into the Yongchang uncle's house. Otherwise, she could give it some thought!"

When the Duke of Qi heard Princess Pingning talking about Xu Wanrong, he hesitated to speak.

Because he clearly remembered that when the Xu family wanted to choose a son-in-law for Xu Wanrong, Princess Pingning didn't comment like this!

At that time, she said that although Xu Wanrong was good, her parents and brothers were both unbearable, and such a woman could not be considered a good match!
  Princess Pingning also saw Qi Guogong's expression and thought of her disparaging words about Xu Wanrong. She felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but raise her voice and said:
  "Now and then, who would have thought that the Xu family would still be here today? Didn't you agree with me at the beginning?" "That's right, that's right, the Liang family took advantage!"

Princess Pingning snorted coldly and was about to respond when she suddenly saw Qi Heng walking over from a distance.
  He immediately regained his calm expression!
  Duke Guo of Qi also sat a little more upright. After all, his son was here, and he still had to maintain the dignity of his old father.

However, when Princess Pingning was not paying attention, he shook his head slightly and winked at Qi Heng, indicating that Qi Heng was asking him to do something, but his wife did not agree!
  After Qi Heng saluted, he stood up and saw his father's eyes, his face darkened slightly.
  Looking a little depressed,

It had been several days, but his mother still didn't agree. He was a little embarrassed to go to the Sheng family to study again.

When he thought of the "disappointed" look in sister Minglan's eyes, Qi Heng gritted his teeth and raised his head to look directly at his mother, Princess Pingning.
  "Mother, please agree to your child's request. If you don't have faith, you won't be established. If your child has already promised to his classmates, you can't break your promise. Otherwise, how can your child have the appearance of reading the book of sages!"

Princess Pingning had been strong all her life, how could she give in to her son just because of a few words?
  Moreover, she was envious of the Xu family at this time when Xu Wenhui shone brightly.

This son of my own is so naive. He doesn't want to take the imperial examination. Instead, he begs himself for a few girls.

After two comparisons, even though she had always liked this son, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"I asked you to go to the Sheng family to read the books of sages. Am I just asking you to learn how to disobey your parents?
  I've said it several times! Women from the Sheng family are not allowed to come as guests.
  Why do you keep mentioning it again and again? Tell me, what is your purpose?
  Could it be that you have a crush on a girl from the Sheng family, so you want to bring her over for us to see? "

Princess Pingning was just talking about it, but she didn't expect Qi Heng to hear it.
  His face showed hesitation,

Princess Pingning was so discerning that she immediately noticed something was wrong and asked sternly:
  "Do you really have a crush on a girl from the Sheng family?"

Qi Heng originally thought about confessing to his mother so as to pave the way for the future, but seeing that my mother was so angry, he didn't dare to add fuel to the fire.
  I thought I could only wait until the time came, so I quickly shook my head in denial.

"No, mother misunderstood. I just heard that several classmates from the Sheng family are going to visit the Xu family of Yongyi Marquis Mansion in a few days.

Thinking that I have been studying in the Sheng family for many years, but I have never invited them to come here, which is somewhat rude, so I want to facilitate this matter, and have no other plans! "

Princess Pingning is arrogant and very confident. She does not believe what Qi Heng said, but rather what she sees with her own eyes.
  When I think about the possibility of my precious son being seduced by a daughter of the Sheng family's family background,

Princess Pingning was so angry that she slapped the table, stood up and said angrily:

"What a prosperous family. I, the Duke of Qi's family, have been humiliating themselves by interacting with their humble family.

They are so shameless and want to get in touch with me and deceive my son. It is really unreasonable! "

Princess Pingning would naturally not suspect that her precious son had fallen in love with a girl from the Sheng family. She immediately recognized that the girl from the Sheng family had used charming tricks to seduce her son!
