Chapter 598 Scared to death? Let's deal with Jiang Shisan Niang!

As Jiang Shisan Niang spoke, she became utterly smug, hands on her hips, wishing she could laugh out loud a few more times.

Maid: "Miss, our hard times are finally coming to an end."

"It's a good thing you made a deal with the master. That vile woman who harmed the madam won't have a good life from now on!"

"I never expected that the master would agree to help you with this marriage."

Jiang Shisan Niang: "Uncle isn't actually that pedantic."

"So when I mentioned to him that I was willing to go to the Yue Prince's mansion as a concubine, he immediately agreed."

“In Nan’an City today, the Prince of Yue is a rising star and a favorite of His Majesty.”

"Only after I marry into the Jiang family can I help them and allow them to return to their former glory."

"So, this is a win-win situation. He will naturally agree."

Maid: "I've heard that quite a few noble ladies are now eager to go to the Prince of Yue's mansion."

"Fortunately, the master has some connections with Eunuch Ji, who serves His Majesty. As long as Eunuch Ji mentions your name to His Majesty, you will definitely be on the list when His Majesty bestows a marriage upon Prince Yue!"

Jiang Shisan Niang: "My uncle said that the Princess Consort of Yue... ah, that merchant woman Nangong Qingluo, her background is really too low-class, yet she holds the title of Princess Consort of Yue."

"Therefore, even if it is shameful, one should not abandon one's wife who has shared hardship. His Highness the King of Yue is a man of deep affection and righteousness and would not do such a thing as divorcing his wife."

"And since His Majesty values ​​the Prince of Yue so highly, how could he bear to see the Prince of Yue with only such a despicable wife's family behind him?"

"I heard that His Majesty has recently instructed the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the marriage of the Prince of Yue."

"Isn't this just about finding him some noble ladies from prestigious families?"

"It's not just my uncle and his family; all the prominent families who have heard the rumors are speculating about this."

"So what if Nangong Qingluo is skilled at making money?"

“Once we noble ladies enter the manor, she won’t be able to bully us at all.”

"Moreover, a mother's status rises with her son's."

"She's been married to Prince Yue for so long, and there's still no sign of pregnancy. What use is a woman if she can't even have a child?"

"Sooner or later, His Highness will also tire of me!"

"If she could pass away sooner, depressed and unhappy, making way for us truly noble ladies from prominent families, wouldn't that be the day we finally get our chance to shine?"

The master and servant were enjoying the good days to come.

I'm afraid Jiang Shisan Niang already understands how she will fight to the death with Li Qingluo, the mistress of the mansion, when she enters the mansion in the future.

However, at that moment, Li Qingluo's voice suddenly rang out from the side.

"There's no need to wait until I'm gone, feeling depressed and unhappy."

"How about I make room for you right now?"

"You, Princess Yue, will take charge of this."

What do you think?

The appearance of Li Qingluo startled Jiang Shisan Niang into letting out a scream.

"ah--"

Que'er darted forward and knocked out the maidservant next to Jiang Shisan Niang with a single punch.

Then he clenched his fist and walked towards Jiang Shisan Niang.

"I advise you to stop making all that noise."

"Otherwise, I'll knock you out, strip you naked, and throw you out into the street."

"Let the world see what the eldest daughter of the Jiang family really looks like!"

"You're eyeing someone else's husband and even their position as his legal wife. You have quite the nerve."

Jiang Shisan Niang's face was whiter than paper.

I just can't figure out how Nangong Qingluo and her maid ended up in my room!

However, she really didn't dare to shout anymore.

Watching Que'er kick her personal maid aside, she could only suppress her tears and shrink into the corner of the bed in humiliation.

"What...what exactly do you want to do?"

"Nangong Qingluo, I advise you not to push your luck too far!"

"You all need to leave now, and I can pretend nothing happened."

"Otherwise, I will punish you for trespassing into the Jiang family and for harming the future concubine of the Yue King's mansion because of your jealousy and malice..."

I just couldn't say that word.

Li Qingluo, who was already sitting calmly across from her drinking tea, finished speaking for her: "What? A concubine?"

She couldn't help but laugh.

"You are the second person I have ever seen in my life who is so eager to become someone else's concubine."

"The first one has already died without a trace because of this foolish idea."

"Do you also want to experience the same fate?"

Jiang Shisan Niang, with tears in her eyes, seemed unfazed by her bluff.

"Do you think you can possess His Highness the King of Yue forever?"

"Peace and tranquility in the inner quarters, and the continuation of the family line—these are all things you, as the mistress of the house, should consider for the Prince!"

"You can't have children yourself, so what? Are you not allowed to have more beautiful women around Your Highness to help the royal family continue its lineage?"

"Furthermore, you're just a merchant's wife; you can offer His Highness nothing but money. It's already a favor that His Highness has granted you the position of principal wife. You'd better be magnanimous and let us noble ladies help uphold the prestige of your Yue Prince's mansion—"

Li Qingluo: "Slap him in the face."

Upon hearing this, Que'er excitedly stepped forward, grabbed Jiang Shisan Niang, and slapped her across the face.

"Ah—" Jiang Shisan Niang screamed in agony.

If it weren't for her wanting to say these smug things to her personal maid in her room, she wouldn't have sent everyone away from the vicinity of her courtyard.

That's why no one heard her screams at this moment.

They had reached a point of utter despair, where no one could help them.

Sparrow slapped her three times in a row.

The blow caused Jiang Shisan Niang's mouth to bleed and her teeth to loosen.

Jiang Shisan Niang still wanted to resist.

The sparrow's strength pressed down on her, making it impossible for her to get up at all.

"You still want to become His Highness's concubine?"

"You?"

"You call yourself a lady from a prestigious family? Bah, you shameless bastard!"

"Would our prince possibly take a liking to you?"

"You think you can suppress our girls?"

"Why don't you look in the mirror? What kind of face do you have!"

"Our girl's looks alone put you to the winds!"

"They look down on my young lady's money-making methods. Our Highness, and the entire Nangong Manor, are all supported by my young lady!"

"Oh no, it's my princess."

"Let me tell you, our princess is not only good at making money, but she is also skilled in swordsmanship and archery."

"Anyone who dares to approach her will be slashed—"

With a fierce expression, Que'er slashed Jiang Shisan Niang's neck.

Jiang Shisan Niang shuddered.

A warm sensation instantly spread beneath him.

Sparrow rolled her eyes.

"You're scared to death by just a few words? You think you can take the throne as the princess?"

"Don't even dream about it!"

You are nothing.

Que'er patted Jiang Shisan Niang's face, then got up with a look of disgust and returned to Li Qingluo's side.

"Girl, your hand hurts from hitting me."

Li Qingluo: "I'll blow on it for you later."

The sparrow then smiled happily and proudly.

Li Qingluo looked at Jiang Shisan Niang, and then slowly got up and walked over.

"Here's a piece of advice for you."

“Unless he harbors ulterior motives, no one dares to covet my people, Nangong Qingluo…”

The unspoken words were enough for Jiang Shisan Niang to imagine.

However, how could she accept this?

She finally seized the opportunity.

I finally managed to plan this for myself!

So even though she was trembling with fear, she still retorted timidly, "You...you think you can stop him from having other women around him for the rest of his life?"

"Do you think you can defy the imperial decree and disregard His Majesty's holy order?"

"You only know how to threaten a poor, lonely woman like me... If you have the guts, then kill me!"

"Otherwise, you absolutely cannot stop me from entering the Yue King's Mansion!"

Li Qingluo: "Isn't it just because you're attracted to His Highness's face?"

"Is your Wu Lang still waiting for you?"

As soon as Li Qingluo finished speaking, a look of overwhelming fear truly appeared in Jiang Shisan Niang's eyes.

"You, you—"

Li Qingluo: "How would I know about your Wu Lang?"

Li Qingluo gave a soft hum.

"You were exposed the day your father went mad."

“You don’t care about your own father, but when my husband appears, your eyes light up like a hungry wolf.”

“Of course I investigated you a long time ago.”

“You lost your mother when you were young, so you lived with your maternal grandparents for a period of time.”

"He then went to the country with his maternal aunt and stayed there for another year."

"It was in that village that there lived a young man named Wu, who was exceptionally handsome and talented."

“Even after you returned to the Jiang family, the two of you still kept in touch.”

"It is only natural for people to fall deeply in love when they first experience romantic feelings."

"But no matter how well this matter is kept secret, the truth will eventually come out."

"Your incriminating evidence has fallen into the hands of your stepmother, who killed your mother and was later made your father's official wife. In order to escape, you plotted to kill Wu Lang yourself."

"Yes or no, Jiang Shisan Niang?"

"Just like how you colluded with the traitor Zongzheng Wuxie to put the drug in your father's courtyard, causing him to go mad and kill people on your grandmother's birthday banquet—"

"Jiang Shisan Niang, your methods are indeed ruthless; even I admire them to some extent."

“If you do not desire my husband, I will continue to turn a blind eye and will not interfere in your life.”

"But now, you shouldn't have messed with me."

"Bring him in!"

As soon as Li Qing finished speaking, Sha San, who had been waiting outside, immediately grabbed a hooded man and brought him in.

When the black cloth was lifted, Jiang Shisan Niang saw a familiar yet terrifying face.

"Wu Lang—?"

"No, it must be fake!"

“Wu Lang is dead. I saw his body with my own eyes.”

"This person, this person is not Wu Lang at all!"

However, it was not His Highness the King of Yue.

Because he's a head shorter than me.

But he looks exactly like Wu Lang!

Whether it's her height or the mole on her profile.

Wu Lang stared at Jiang Shisan Niang with a deep gaze and called out, "Shisan Niang..."

"It's me."

"Did you really think I was dead?"

"I've come back to find you."

“Thirteenth Sister, if I hadn’t protected you back then, you would have been pushed into the river and drowned by your own cousin long ago.”

"Later, I took the beating for you."

"I've saved your life so many times. How could you bear to kill me?"

"Thirteenth Mother..."

Wu Lang staggered toward Thirteen Sister.

In her terror, Jiang Shisan Niang covered her head and began to scream.

This time, her scream was finally heard by the rest of the Jiang family.

When the others rushed over, only Jiang Shisan Niang and her maid lying by the bed were in the room.

Jiang Shisan Niang, in broad daylight, somehow saw something and found a puddle of urine beneath her...

The stench was so bad that everyone held their noses.

All that could be heard was Jiang Shisan Niang muttering repeatedly, "It was my fault..."

"I was really wrong..."

"Please let me go, please let me go..."
