"You bitch!"
The eldest princess kicked Jiang Xue hard in the stomach. In her anger, the kick was fast and fierce, sending Jiang Xue flying several feet away, crashing into the artificial hill and knocking her unconscious.
"ah--"
Yu Shu screamed in fright, her face turned ashen, and she collapsed to the ground, trembling all over.
The ladies and young women all looked terrified, and the old women and maids beside them hurriedly covered their mouths, afraid that their screams would anger the princess.
The young men were terrified, dropping their fans to the ground. Some even covered their faces with their sleeves, not daring to make a sound, let alone plead for Jiang Xue.
Even Kou, Jiang Xue's top follower, was so frightened that he huddled up in a ball, covering his face with his hands, unable to bear watching what was happening.
After kicking Jiang Xue to the ground, the princess stood up, angrily pointing at Yu Shu, and said through gritted teeth, "Guards! Drag this lowly servant away and beat her to death!"
Before Yu Shu could react and beg for mercy, she had already been gagged by two old women and dragged away.
The eldest princess, still furious, glared at the fifth prince, "She is your concubine..."
The Fifth Prince's face was ashen. He coldly ordered, "Guards—lock Concubine Jiang in the Buddhist hall. She is not to leave without my permission!"
These words shocked everyone, and a chill ran through them.
The Fifth Prince is truly decisive!
With just this one casual remark, Jiang Xue was not only stripped of her title as a concubine, but also placed under house arrest in the Buddhist hall.
You know, that was his most beloved concubine!
Jiang Jiaojiao coldly observed everything that was happening before her eyes, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart: Heh, in her previous life, the Fifth Prince doted on Jiang Xue, and was a complete infatuated lover. He even misled the other princes' vigilance because of this deep affection, and even His Majesty favored him.
The eldest princess clearly hadn't expected the fifth prince to be so resolute. She stared at him with a dark expression and gritted her teeth, saying, "Fine, I'll give you some face today."
"Pfft—"
Suddenly a loud bang was heard, followed by a stench that filled the air.
Everyone covered their mouths and noses, their faces showing disgust.
The eldest princess turned pale, clutching her stomach and bending over, glaring angrily at Jiang Jiaojiao: "What did you feed me?!"
Seeing this, Jiang Jiaojiao calmly shrugged, spread her hands, and replied with a smile, "The poison in your body must have a source, right? Look—the changing room is over there."
After saying that, Jiang Jiaojiao "kindly" pointed out a direction to the princess.
"You—you wait!"
The eldest princess gritted her teeth, uttered a harsh remark, and slunk away.
Everyone gasped, staring at Jiang Jiaojiao in horror.
She...she actually dared to tease the long-faced princess?
The crowd's gaze shifted from Jiang Jiaojiao to the Seventh Prince beside her. The previously intense stares instantly diminished by half. If they were to enter the Seventh Prince's residence and try to make a living under the wing of Jiang Jiaojiao, the Seventh Prince's consort, it would probably be... rather difficult.
then……
In addition to being stupid and brainless, Jiang Jiaojiao also gained the reputation of being a shrew.
As soon as the eldest princess left, the royal guards followed her.
The crowd scattered like birds and beasts in an instant. They didn't even have time to say goodbye to the Fifth Prince before they hurriedly ran away, fearing that they would be implicated in the Fifth Prince's harem and lose their lives.
Most of those invited by Jiang Xue today are from humble families. The most prominent is the eldest son of the Minister of Revenue, followed by the General's Mansion and the Seventh Prince. They all came because Jiang Jiaojiao insisted on attending the invitation in a disheveled state, and they were worried that Jiaojiao would be bullied.
Unexpectedly, not only was Jiao Jiao unharmed, but she also turned the Fifth Prince's harem upside down. Within a day, the prince's wife and concubines were all gone, leaving only the royal concubine trembling with fear, supported by her nanny.
Because the Fifth Prince's expression was really too ugly...
"Today's garden party was truly wonderful!"
Jiang Jiaojiao looked at the Fifth Prince with a mocking smile, took a step forward, took Yuan Bao'er's arm, and said enthusiastically, "Come on, I'll treat you to hot pot at the Red Mansion, hehe, to celebrate your rebirth!"
That's great! The little crybaby is back!
Delicious food and beautiful women, here they come!
Jiang Jiaojiao smiled, her eyes crinkling like the bright moon in the sky, her beauty breathtaking and shimmering with a bright light that made everything around her pale in comparison.
That exquisite smile was deeply imprinted in Li Yan's eyes, leaving him completely captivated.
At that moment, he seemed to see a sky full of dazzling fireworks, like a mesmerized child, his gaze fixed on Jiang Jiaojiao's figure.
Luo Shier's eyes lit up, and she immediately squeezed past Li Yan, excitedly taking Jiang Jiaojiao's other arm and saying with anticipation, "Let's go, let's go too! I've never eaten there before. I heard that the hot pot at Honglou is amazing, and it's so popular that you have to wait in line for days!"
On the other side, the Thirteenth Young Master stood there silently, his eyes unconsciously drifting towards Yuan Bao'er. He scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and muttered in a low voice, "I've never eaten it either."
"Then let's go together, it's on me! I'll make sure you leave satisfied!"
Jiang Jiaojiao agreed without hesitation, then waved her hand gracefully and strode forward surrounded by the crowd.
However, after taking only two steps, she suddenly stopped, turned around abruptly, grabbed Li Yan who was standing there in a daze, and said coquettishly, "What are you standing there for? Aren't you hungry? Come on, come on!"
Li Yan's hands felt as if they were enveloped by a soft cloud. His dim eyes sparkled, and the corners of his mouth turned up. His eyes and heart were filled only with the person in front of him, as beautiful as a summer flower.
I'm hungry.
The word "gently" is as tender as a pool of spring water.
Everyone was amazed, feeling that the Seventh Prince was becoming increasingly handsome, even surpassing Pan An in looks.
Jin Yuwan saw the two holding hands and smiled like an aunt.
She glanced at the Fifth Prince, who was stiffly instructing the servants to see the guests out, and patted Yuan Bao'er's hand, saying, "That ingrate is a dog that can't change its nature. He used to pretend to be weak and hurt Jiao Jiao at home, but after following the Fifth Prince, he's become even worse. He even faked a pregnancy to compete for the prince's favor and dared to kill people!"
Jin Yuwan couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. If Jiaojiao hadn't exposed her true colors and sent her away, she didn't know how she would have schemed against Jiaojiao.
The thought of Yuan Bao'er shielding Jiao Jiao from disaster made Jin Yuwan feel even more guilty. "I'm so sorry for raising such a heartless ingrate who almost killed you."
"In the future... I will definitely introduce you to someone better than the Fifth Prince. He is blind and deceitful, he doesn't deserve you!"
Yuan Bao'er chuckled, but felt no sadness at the thought of separation.
She linked her arm with Jiaojiao's, "Yes! He doesn't deserve her!"
Men will only affect her appetite.
Jiang Jiaojiao hesitated, thinking of the heartless Yuan family, "Why don't you come with us to Yiren Mansion for a few days?"
Yuan Bao'er narrowed her eyes slightly, "No need, I want to go back to the Yuan family and take back what belongs to me."
A flame burned in her heart.
Now that she's back, we should... take revenge for our wrongs and settle our scores!
