If Wei An really wanted to leave without caring about anything, could they kidnap him and keep him here openly
Originally, sending the post was already a form of coercion and inducement.
But no matter how much coercion or inducement was used, others could not see it. They only knew that the Marquis' Mansion sent an invitation to the Wei family and thought it was natural for Wei An to come.
Now everyone has seen the attitude of the Marquisate towards Wei An. They really did not respect this guest. Not only did they not respect him, they did not even have the basic hospitality skills.
The host ignored her and helped the visiting guests to ridicule her. Even if she wanted to leave, others would not dare to say much for the sake of the Marquis's Mansion and the Princess, but would still think it was natural.
It was they who gave Wei An the pass to leave this gambling game.
Feng Shuyuan took a deep breath and frowned, feeling that she was in a difficult situation.
Princess Yonghe upstairs also felt that she was in a dilemma. She looked at Wei An, and the murderous intent in her eyes could hardly be concealed.
Princess Yongqing laughed in her heart.
Everyone knew that Wei An was not easy to deal with, but Yonghe still couldn't keep his cool. Before the plan even started, he had to embarrass others and give them a warning.
But now he was blocked here by Wei An, and he was in a dilemma.
No matter what, she was always happy to see Princess Yonghe suffer a setback, so she just stood aside and watched the fun.
Chen Mianmian could not help it. Seeing that Feng Shuyuan still said such harsh words, it sounded like she was giving Wei An face, but in fact she was still accusing Wei An of not knowing how to behave in the right occasion, she could not help but sneer: "I thought Shuyuan, you didn't know that this was your coming-of-age ceremony! Since you have invited people, you must be sincerely inviting them, right? Since they are here, they must be sincerely wishing you the best. Why do you have to humiliate them like this? Speaking of being ignorant of etiquette..."
She paused, gritted her teeth and said, "I have no choice but to be ignorant of etiquette. An An is saying that since His Highness thinks that whatever we do is wrong, then we might as well not offend others here."
As she spoke, she pulled Wei An away.
Feng Shuyuan blushed, felt embarrassed and angry, but knew she couldn't let Wei An go. She held back her anger and pulled Chen Mianmian in front of Wei An. She patiently lowered her attitude and said, "It was my fault just now. I heard rumors outside and saw that you were not polite, so I said a few more words to Her Royal Highness the Princess, causing Her Royal Highness to misunderstand you..."
Wei An seemed to be thinking about something.
Feng Shuyuan is by no means an impulsive and irritable person. She is even different from the Fairy Rong County Lady. She is not a person who takes advantage of her favor to bully others. She thinks carefully and rationally about everything she does.
Just like now, she knew clearly that after she said these words, others would think she was talkative and could not stand being wronged, but in order to appease Princess Yonghe's anger, to give Princess Yonghe a way out, and to keep her, she could actually lower herself and do this on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony.
After hearing this, Princess Yonghe had a way out. She laughed coldly and said, "If that's the case, then I misunderstood you."
Feng Shuyuan frowned and looked at Wei An, looking condescending yet restrained: "I invited you sincerely. After the ceremony, there will be many fun things to do. If you don't come, wouldn't it be a pity?"
Everyone noticed something was wrong.
Judging from Princess Yonghe and Feng Shuyuan's attitude towards Wei An, it was clear that they disliked her to the extreme. However, when Wei An was really forced to leave by them, they seemed to be very afraid that she would leave.
Such a contradictory attitude made everyone feel surprised.
The wife of the Marquis of Ping'an was even more worried and couldn't help but say: "Princess Shouning doesn't seem to be feeling well..."
With these words from Lady Ping'an, if Wei An wanted to leave, he could easily find a reason to leave.
Princess Yonghe glanced at Feng Shuyuan lightly.
Feng Shuyuan couldn't help but let out a cry of anxiety, and while dragging Wei An upstairs, she said, "It's almost time, the guests outside may have come in..."
The opportunity was interrupted, and saying more would offend people. Lady Ping'an Marquis looked at Wei An, and seeing that he looked normal, she did not say anything more. She nodded and presided over the ceremony herself.
Preparations for Feng Shuyuan's coming-of-age ceremony had already begun half a month ago. All kinds of items were prepared, and the invited guests were either rich or noble. Knowing that the Feng family was now deeply favored by the emperor, everyone gave them face.
Even Chen Mianmian couldn't help but whisper to Wei An: "Her coming-of-age ceremony was very special."
There were also many rewards sent down from the palace, so this ceremony had to be special.
Wei An smiled, and then he heard Feng Shuyuan, who had changed her clothes and came out, laughing: "The elders have already said that we can have fun today. Without the constraints of the elders, why don't we think of something fun?"
Although there had been a confrontation between Princess Yonghe and Wei An before, after all, it was a rare opportunity to play as they pleased without the constraints of their elders, so everyone cheered in response.
Even Princess Yonghe and Princess Yongqing rarely spoke. The fact that they did not object meant that they agreed.
Everyone laughed happily and discussed what to play.
Feng Shuyuan listened with a smile for a while, then suddenly turned to look at Wei An: "They all want to play polo, but polo is a bit difficult. I wonder if the princess has ever learned it?"
Chen Mianmian frowned.
Princess Yonghe and Feng Shuyuan deliberately wanted to keep Wei An and insisted that she play polo. She was already alert and shook her head at Wei An, indicating that Wei An said no.
Wei An laughed, and shook his head awkwardly: "Not very proficient."
Not very proficient
I'm afraid I don't know how to do it, but I insist on pretending that I'm just not proficient in it.
Feng Shuyuan looked her up and down and saw that she was slender. Then she thought about the fact that she had never seen her in an occasion where she had to play polo. She already knew what she was talking about. When she heard her say this, she smiled and said, "Not very proficient? There are not many people here who can be considered proficient. Besides, it's just a game between girls. It doesn't necessarily require proficiency..."
She smiled at Wei An, raised her chin and asked her: "So will the princess play or not? I heard that Mrs. Wei was very good at playing polo, and Princess Changning was also a famous polo expert..."
He even used the method of provoking her, it seems that he really wants her to participate.
Wei An lowered his head for a moment, then raised it again in the surprised eyes of everyone, smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Okay."
