everyone working together, we can finish this quickly."Zhang Er's sister-in-law heard this and nodded enviously.“Your son is truly a good boy. Not to mention that just the other day, when collecting t...The Third Princess immediately turned cold, angrily saying, "Just when I was finally relaxing a bit, some idiot comes to cause trouble!"
The prince glanced at Jia Yin, who was sipping tea with her head bowed, his face a mixture of embarrassment and anger.
Now the Emperor has only a few consorts left, and even those who remain are quite old.
Nearly every young woman he encountered in the palace became one of his wives or concubines.
Needless to say, this is someone who has found out his whereabouts and followed him to try to win favor.
The woman in the crimson dress didn't know she had been seen through, and was still acting dramatically.
She was playing happily, and occasionally turned her head as if she had suddenly noticed the crowd. Her expression showed a mixture of surprise and shyness, and then she quickly walked over, bowing slightly while saying something in a sweet voice.
"Your Highness, Prince and Princess are well. Peipei was momentarily engrossed in play and disturbed everyone's enjoyment. I hope Your Highness will forgive her."
The Third Princess hated people who spoke lies with their eyes open, and immediately retorted.
"We three brought so many maids and eunuchs, over a dozen people in all, you walk straight over and didn't see any of them "
"Are your eyes just for decoration! You came here to vie for attention so openly, putting on this act, thinking we're fools"
"The princess was furious, I truly did not see." The woman in red blushed at being scolded and quickly knelt down, but a pair of peach blossom eyes looked pitifully at the prince.
Unfortunately, the Crown Prince kept his head bowed, sipping tea, and didn't receive her distress signal.
As for Jia Yin, she simply lowered her head and fiddled with her purse, treating herself as invisible and certainly not daring to speak.
The Third Princess is getting married tomorrow. Although she constantly complains about the palace being a prison, she's actually anxious about her future life. This makes her feel a little bit attached to the place where she grew up.
She originally wanted to have a good look at the scenery with her best friend, chat and relax.
As a result, she endured when she suddenly encountered the prince.
Although their time together was short, the Crown Prince also took good care of her.
This woman is so manipulative, she doesn't deserve to take up her precious last moments before her wedding!
She went all out with her "wicked" behavior!
"What is this, Pepe You said you wandered into here by mistake, didn't you" The Third Princess took a sip of her juice and continued to ask.
"Then let me ask you, where did you come from Such a vast Imperial Garden, is there anything still missing"
"That princess should really have a good talk with the eunuch chief who guards this garden, or else beware that any stray cat or dog might just waltz in here willy-nilly."
The woman in red heard the third princess comparing her to a cat and a dog, so angry that she gnashed her teeth.
Had it not been for the prince, she wouldn't have come to endure this humiliation.
But she dared not say anything, could only vaguely respond, "I entered from the garden gate. At that time, there was no one, and I..."
"Caiyun, inquire about what happened before we arrived. We clearly instructed the eunuch guarding the garden to stop all unauthorized personnel! Not only did he fail to do so, but he also neglected his duty, truly outrageous!"
With a wave of her hand, the third princess sent Caiyun dashing to the garden gate. Then, before the red-clad woman could react in alarm, she dragged the gatekeeper eunuch back with her.
The gatekeeper was so terrified that when he got closer, he plopped to his knees.
"Your Highness, it was my fault. I've been guarding the door all along. When Consort Fu came over, I clearly said that you, the Crown Prince, and the County Princess were here and she couldn't disturb you. However..."
"But Fu Cui's maidservant forcefully shoved a silver ingot into this servant's hand and let me in! It was all because this servant was greedy, it was all this servant's fault. I beg the Princess to forgive me."
The Third Princess glanced at the Crown Prince, seeing that he still seemed detached and uninvolved. She became even more impolite.
"Come here, take this greedy servant down and give him twenty lashes. He only has eyes for silver and no regard for his master's belongings! Let this be a lesson to him!"
Immediately, an eunuch stepped forward and pulled the person away.
Perhaps to please the master, the eunuch chose the execution site not far away.
Even though he was beaten and castrated, he still screamed loudly. Everyone could hear his cries clearly.
Fu Pepe's face was as white as paper, looking weak and frail like a willow branch in the wind. She seemed about to faint from weakness.
The third princess rolled her eyes and began to settle the score with her.
“Imperial Consort Fu, how else do you plan to justify yourself You clearly knew we were here and deliberately came to cause trouble. And then you pretended not to know anything! This is a clear case of knowing wrong and doing wrong!”
"What do you want to be punished for!"
Fu Peipei's tears fell like raindrops, and she hated the third princess with all her heart.
Even though she's about to get married, she's still acting like a queen in the palace.
When she becomes favored later and gives birth to a grandson, she must avenge today's grievance!
She crawled forward two steps, then suddenly rushed up and hugged the prince's calf, crying so hard she couldn't speak.
"Oh, Your Highness, it's been several days since I entered the palace, and I haven't had the chance to see your noble presence. My heart ached with worry, so I impulsively came in."
"Sob sob, this servant knows she was wrong. Please forgive this servant once, Your Highness, would you"
She tilted her head back, tears streaming down her cheeks, which only added to her poignant beauty.
Unfortunately, the prince's heart was as hard as iron. He retracted his leg to avoid her tugging and said calmly, "Someone has already arranged your schedules. Just wait patiently, and you will have the opportunity to meet with this Prince."
If everyone else were like you, with no rules and acting on their own whims, wouldn't this prince be bothered every day
"Withdraw and reflect in seclusion for a month. Thoroughly consider your mistakes today."
Fu Peipei was immediately anxious. Of the thirteen girls who entered the palace, each one desperately wanted to seize the Prince's attention and give birth to a grandson as soon as possible.
If she were locked up for a month, by the time she came out, she would probably be miles away.
"No, no, Your Highness, please forgive me this once."
Fu Pepe still wanted to hug the prince's leg, but she was stopped by Feng, the steward.
In a moment of desperation, she changed direction and rushed straight towards Jia Yin.
"Your Highness Consort Kangle, please plead on my behalf! I... I know Lady Wen, Lady Wen is my mother!"
Jiayin was holding her teacup when she was suddenly startled and knocked over. The tea splashed all over half of her skirt.
Luckily it was summer, the tea was only lukewarm, otherwise she would have been scalded.
She frowned, just about to speak, when Fu Peipei was kicked to the ground by the prince!
"Presumptuous!" The Crown Prince roared, quickly scanning Jia Yin's wet skirt with a grim expression. His voice was icy cold as he said, "Drag her down and slap her twenty times! She is to be confined for half a year!"
"No, Your Highness, you can't treat me like this! My father is the Marquis of Dingbei!" Fu Peipei was frantic, changing her tune and quickly bringing up her biological father's title.
Jiayin was still puzzled, wondering how Mrs. Wen could have a daughter so tall.
But upon hearing the three words "Dingbei Marquis," she suddenly realized.
This Pei Pei is the daughter of that scumbag, Duke Dingbei. It’s said that even when Lady Wen was still Mrs. Duke Dingbei, she might have been Pei Pei's mistress.
She immediately lost interest. Like father, like daughter. The daughter of a scumbag will be manipulative!
It's not surprising that Fu PeiPei came today to vie for attention.
Of course, this outcome was also deserved.
But, it's a pity that this onlooker ended up being caught in the crossfire and ruined a nice dress.ly burst into laughter.She declined verbally, but her fingers quickly inserted the hairpin into her hair bun.Then, under the envious and regretful gazes of many women, she led the peddler towards the...
