Wan Jinlan brought up the past again, and everyone remembered the things that Wang Minghui wanted to be forgotten.
Everyone felt awkward, thinking Wan Jinlan was asserting his sovereignty.
Wang Minghui once coveted the King of Qi, but made a fool of himself and failed to achieve his wish.
As a result, Wan Jinlan was granted marriage to the King of Qi. It was heard that this decree was personally requested by the King of Qi who was far away in Yangzhou.
Wan Jinlan is not showing off her marriage today, but she knows how to step on Wang Minghui so that she will feel pain and restrain herself.
Wang Minghui is very concerned about her reputation. She always behaves in a dignified manner when she is outside and always protects the dignity of her family. If you want her to restrain herself, you can only touch her sore spot.
Wang Minghui felt a little ashamed, and she also felt that all the ladies present were ganging up on her. Then she remembered how she had been abandoned by her clan, and for a moment she almost cried, her heart aching.
Seeing tears in her eyes, Wan Jinlan suddenly felt that he had gone too far.
When Wan Jinlan was wondering whether to pour Wang Minghui a glass of fruit wine to ease the atmosphere, she heard her say, "I'm going to change my clothes."
Changing clothes at this time naturally meant going to the toilet. However, everyone present knew that Wang Minghui could no longer stay there and was just looking for an excuse to leave.
In fact, Wang Minghui's reaction was completely excessive.
She never thought that even though her reputation was tarnished, she could still be married to Prince Duan as his principal wife, which was a blessing that many people present could not ask for.
That was the position of a princess, and Prince Duan was still known as a gentleman in the capital. What virtue and ability did Wang Minghui have?
Many people feel jealous, but they have to laugh at her as much as they can while they can, right?
Wan Qiuyu bit her lip and said, "Third sister, fourth sister, today's incident was caused by me. I will go and apologize to Miss Wang."
Without waiting for everyone's reaction, she lifted her skirt and followed Wang Minghui.
Wan Jinyu's face darkened.
Wang Minghui was almost crying because she asked for it. But Wan Jinlan was clearly trying to help her, and now she was going to apologize to Wang Minghui. What kind of person is this?
"Sister Wan, it seems that your half-sister doesn't appreciate your kindness." Chen Yueru chuckled.
Just as there are people who dislike Wang Minghui, there are also people who dislike Wan Jinlan.
Wan Jinlan said leisurely, "Second sister has been away from home for many years, and this is her first time attending a banquet. It's inevitable that she wants to be considerate of everything. I can understand her."
Seeing that she was speaking frankly, everyone thought that it was indeed true, so they stopped harassing Wan Jinlan.
Although Wan Jinlan said that, she was not sure in her heart. Wang Minghui was Xiao Minghuan's future princess, and Wan Qiuyu had stopped Xiao Minghuan at the mansion before. She suspected that Wan Qiuyu had other motives.
Just as Wang Minghui and Wan Qiuyu left, Princess Anyang and the Eighth Princess arrived.
The eighth princess is young and has the same mother as the sixth prince. Both are born to Concubine Lai, but they have not yet been given a title.
After everyone paid their respects, Wan Jinlan was stopped by Princess Anyang. However, she was still thinking about Wan Qiuyu and was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she found an excuse to take Princess Anyang away from here.
On the other side, Wan Qiuyu followed the crying Wang Minghui all the way to the waterside pavilion in the front yard of the palace.
Wang Minghui picked up a small stone and threw it into the water in a depressed mood.
Wan Qiuyu saw that the maid from the palace was some distance away from here, and saw that the people who should catch up had caught up, so he approached Wang Minghui.
"I really sympathize with you. You are the Empress's niece, yet you are going to marry Prince Duan as his consort. You will be alone in the palace, without any support from your family, and Prince Duan will not like you. I can only imagine the end of your life."
Wan Qiuyu knew best how to anger a woman, and his tone was full of gloating and condescending pity.
But she spoke softly, careful not to be heard by the maidservant nearby.
Wang Minghui turned around and saw that it was her. She was so angry that she slapped her.
"You, a person of unknown identity, dare to laugh at me? Who gave you the courage?"
Wan Qiuyu was not angry even after being beaten. He covered his face and acted pitiful, but his words were very rude, continuing to irritate Wang Minghui.
"I'm only stating the truth. I heard you were once devoted to the Prince of Qi, but the future Princess of Qi was my third sister. And your future husband also once had feelings for my third sister. I truly pity you. How could you be inferior to my third sister in every way? It's a shame you have the reputation of being a talented woman in Kyoto, but you're truly a pathetic creature who no one likes."
Wang Minghui had just been offended by Wan Jinlan. Wan Qiuyu kept talking about Wan Jinlan, and she was so angry that her eyes turned red.
If there were someone here, she might be able to bear it, but this place is remote and everyone is at the banquet, so she can't care about so many things.
Then, Wan Qiuyu was slapped down by Wang Minghui and fell into the lake.
This was the scene that Wan Jinlan, Princess Anyang and others saw when they arrived here.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Minghuan, who followed Wan Qiuyu, jumped into the lake without hesitation and pulled the struggling Wan Qiuyu out of the water.
It can be said that Wan Qiuyu and Xiao Minghuan have a tacit understanding in some aspects.
The old lady was determined to marry Wan Qiuyu to another place as soon as possible, and Wan Qiuyu had no say in her own marriage.
Even if Xiao Minghuan wanted to take someone into the mansion as a concubine, the mansion might not agree.
Therefore, when Wan Qiuyu decided to use Wang Minghui's hand to fall into the water, Xiao Minghuan knew that today was an opportunity.
The two hit it off without any discussion.
Wan Qiuyu was soaked all over and choked on a lot of water. Her hair dripped down and stuck to her cheeks. She snuggled tightly in Xiao Ming's arms.
"Ms. Wang, I just came here to apologize for what happened earlier. Why are you doing this?"
Wan Jinlan saw scattered guests gathering in this area and knew that even if Wan Qiuyu came down from Xiao Ming's arms, it would be useless. It would be better for him to continue holding her so that more people would not see the scene of her clothes clinging to her body.
Xiao Minghuan looked at Wang Minghui with disappointment, "I didn't expect you to be such a person in private, slapping people and pushing them into the water at will."
"I wanted to ask you about your living preferences today, so I followed you here, but I didn't expect..."
Xiao Minghuan shook his head in disappointment.
Today he also reported to the Queen about her plan for his marriage.
The queen could use her niece to take his place as the principal wife, or he could dislike Wang Minghui and use her to damage the reputation of the queen's family.
Wang Minghui stood there, unable to argue.
She had clearly just slapped her, so how could that bitch fall into the water?
Thinking about this bitch's words and her inconsistency, how could he not know that she had fallen into Wan Qiuyu's trap!
She did it on purpose! This bitch wanted to use her to get into the palace!
Even if Wang Minghui was unhappy about being abandoned by the family, she knew that since the marriage was a foregone conclusion, she would definitely live under the control of Prince Duan in the future.
Before she even entered the palace, she had already incurred the dislike of Prince Duan. How could she live her life like this?
This time, Wang Minghui was really angry and cried.
