Chapter 15 Revenge is Coming
first to take the stage was Jiang Shufei's niece, Jiang Zhiyi. On the surface, she lived up to her name and appeared to be a gentle and understanding young lady. She gracefully and calmly played a pie..."Fu'er, where did I go wrong Why are you being so distant with me" Liang Wang naturally wouldn't let her leave like that. In a moment of panic, he grabbed Xiao Yu Fu's wrist.
"Your Highness, Prince Liang, please control yourself!" Someone had already approached. Xiao Yufu was afraid of being seen and misunderstood, so she quickly shook him off and tightly grasped Xiao Yuge's arm.
Xiao Yuge's heart was filled with cold laughter. At this time last life, she had almost been punished by King Liang and the noble concubine for her impudence when trying to stop him from meeting Xiao Yufu. This life, she would just be a spectator.
As they walked by, several noble ladies passing by glanced at them and whispered to each other in hushed tones.
Miss Xiao, relying on her beauty, has been flirting with the Crown Prince while also dangling the King of Liang.
"That's right, looking so gentle and frail, but the means are really something..."
Xiao Yu Fu listened, clenching her handkerchief in her hand, yet powerless to do anything about it.
"F'er..." Qian Li Ye was still about to go forward and pester Xiao Yu Fu.
"Ye'er!" At this time, a cold voice came from the side of Xian Fei.
"Greetings, Noble Consort Xian!" Xiao Yuge and Xiao Yufei hurriedly bowed.
"Mother," Qian Liye timidly retreated to the side of the Noble Consort.
The noble concubine's stern eyes swept across Xiao Yufu: "Ye'er, don't forget your identity. Don't get too close to just anyone. Miss Ye has been waiting for you over there for a long time, go now!" She always favored the daughter of Duke Ye as her ideal granddaughter-in-law.
"Yes! Mother!" Qian Liye, although reluctant, dared not disobey his mother, so he could only reluctantly leave.
After Qianliye left, the noble consort glared coldly at Xiao Yufu and warned, "Miss Xiao is just an adopted daughter of the Xiangfu. Without the Xiangfu, you are nothing. So don't covet what doesn't belong to you. In the future, stay away from this palace's son! Remember, before status and power, beauty and talent are worthless!" After speaking, she turned and left.
Xiao Yu Fu bit her lip lightly, trembling hands clutching tightly: "Why Why should she have to suffer such grievances!"
Xiao Yu's song took in her expression with his eyes, a sneer curling his lips inwardly: This is already unbearable It's just the beginning!
On the other side, Ning Hua saw that Xiao Yu Fu had not only won the favor of the prince but also Liang Wang was vying for her attention. Envy burned in her heart. Just as she was feeling distressed, the little bee beside her kept buzzing and flitting about incessantly. She impatiently waved her sleeve: “Scram! Even you little creatures dare to bully me, this county princess How despicable!”
"Miss, perhaps you accidentally got some honey on yourself earlier, so those bees have been buzzing around you. This servant will wipe it off for you!" The maidservant Xiaorobo said as she took a handkerchief and wiped the honey off Ning Hua's sleeve.
"Honey" Ning Hua glanced at those annoying bees, then at the two stunning sisters over there, a slow smile crept up the corner of her lips. She had come up with a brilliant plan!
"Little Carrot, go tell them, I want a big bowl of honey!"
"A whole bowl My Lady, what are you going to do with so much honey" Little Carrot seemed not to understand.
"Just go if they call you, why ask so many questions" Ninghua glared at her.
"Alright, my lady!" Little Carrot scurried away.
Ninghua glanced at the two sisters, Xiao Yuge, a slight upturn of her red lips: "You'll see later!" She picked up a handful of small stones from the ground and squatted down beside them, ready for anything.
"Miss Ning, what are you doing squatting here" Zhang's sisters and Wang's younger sister walked over, following Ninghua's gaze and immediately understood: "Oh, Miss Ning is going to make trouble!" It wasn't uncommon for Ninghua and the Xiao sisters to be at odds. Every time they met, it was either a fight or a big scene, which was quite entertaining.
"Today, you're lucky to be here and watch the show with this princess!" Ning Hua said triumphantly, even imagining how embarrassed the Xiao sisters would be later.
"Miss, everything has been arranged." Shortly after, Little Turnip came back.
"Well done! Upon returning to the manor, you shall be richly rewarded!" Ning Hua hurriedly gathered the stones at her feet.
Two maids walked towards Xiao Yuge carrying something in their hands. They didn't seem out of the ordinary, but Xiao Yuge still had a bad feeling. She also noticed someone hiding discreetly nearby, seemingly waiting for something to happen. She sniffed the air. Honey She couldn't help but frown slightly, then a barely perceptible smile appeared on her lips: How naive!
Just as the two maids approached Xiao Yuge and her companions, they seemed to slip on their feet. In reality, Ninghua had secretly thrown a few pebbles under their feet to trip them up. The two maids tumbled backward, sending the contents of their hands splashing towards Xiao Yuge and her group!
"Sister, be careful!" Xiao Yuge pretended to protect her sister. Seemingly panicked, she flicked her wrist in a sudden motion. The liquid that was originally being splashed at them immediately changed direction, as if it had eyes, and was splashed towards the person hiding on the side!
"Ah!" Suddenly, a cry of alarm came from behind the flowers.
Soon after, a swarm of bees, drawn by the scent, flew towards the noblewomen, causing them to scream and run for cover in terror. Luckily, NingHua had anticipated this, covering her head with her cloak, narrowly escaping the bee attack.
Looking at the unharmed sisters of the Xiao family, Ning Hua was so angry that she stomped her feet: "Hmph! They're just lucky!" After saying that, she glared resentfully and turned away. The sisters of the Zhang family and the Wang family were pitiable. Just because they were curious for a moment, they were chased by bees and stung all over their heads. They were probably scared out of their wits.
Xiao Yu Ge looked at them running away in a disheveled and defeated manner, feeling very pleased. This little trickery, wanting to play her, was truly naive!
In her past life, when that honey was splashed on her and Xiao Yufu, she instinctively shielded Xiao Yufu, so in the end, she was stung until she looked like a pig's head. This life, she had martial arts, to deal with these petty tricks, already more than enough. Although she just used internal energy and it pulled at the wounds on her body, making them hurt now, at least she fought back beautifully, this pain was worth it.
"Looking at these children, in the bloom of youth, this palace finds itself reminiscing about when we first entered the palace. Back then, we were just like them, innocent and carefree..." The Empress seemed oblivious to what was happening afar. She gazed at those noble ladies frolicking amongst the flowers, her heart filled with a multitude of emotions.
"Indeed, this age, like a blossoming flower, is truly wonderful. In the blink of an eye, twenty years have passed." Even Shufei beside her couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
The Empress happened to see Xiao Yuge and her companions passing by, so she called out to her: “Yuge, the Crown Prince is still in the imperial study discussing matters of state with His Majesty. This palace has already informed him, and he will come over later to accompany you. Would you like to come with this palace to the pavilion over there”
"I am willing!" Xiao Yuge was worried that she couldn't get rid of Xiao Yufei, who always pretended to be her close sister. The Empress's words were a great help to her.ittle trick is still too tender in front of me." Xiao Yu Ge clapped his hands and stood up, but before he could stand firm, he felt a dizzy spell coming over him, his body swayed, and he almost fell.“...
