Yuan Xuemei was still cursing with her back to the main gate.
Ye Xinxin was about to get angry, but when she saw Shangguan Yu coming, she immediately pretended to be aggrieved.
"Ms. Yuan, Xinxin doesn't know what she did to make you so angry and insist on asking about her background."
"Xinxin knows that her background is not as prominent as Miss Yuan's."
"But no matter what, Xinxin has never offended you. Why would you bully her like this?"
"As for the invitation you mentioned, ever since His Highness and Xinxin became engaged at the Qiqiao Lantern Festival, His Highness has allowed Xinxin to come anytime."
"Xinxin really didn't know that His Highness actually invited Miss Yuan here today."
"If she had known, Xinxin would definitely not have chosen to come at this time."
"It was indeed Xinxin's fault for making Miss Yuan angry. Xinxin apologizes to you first."
Hearing Ye Xinxin's answer, Shangguan Yu nodded with satisfaction, and at the same time stopped to observe the performance of the two.
When Ye Xinxin saw that he did not come in, but instead stopped in an invisible place in the corridor, she knew his intention.
She calmed herself down and spoke to Yuan Xuemei in a confident and relaxed manner.
However, she knew that Yuan Xuemei had a hot temper, so every word she said touched on Yuan Xuemei's sore spot.
Sure enough, Yuan Xuemei, who was already very angry when she saw her, suddenly became irritable after hearing what she said.
"Ye Xinxin, you are so shameless."
"Go ask those aristocratic families, which young lady would go to a man's house without an invitation?"
"You grew up in the General's Mansion, yet you don't even understand this little bit of propriety and honor."
"I really don't know if it's because Madam Ye didn't teach you well, or if you're just like your poor parents in your bones and can't learn no matter how hard you try."
"Stop talking nonsense here. If you know what's good for you, leave Prince Yu's Mansion immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xinxin immediately pretended to be a weak little white flower.
"Ms. Yuan, how can you be so overbearing? I'm looking for..."
"Pa", before Ye Xinxin could finish her words, a loud slap came directly at her.
"What are you looking for? I think you just don't understand what people are saying. Come on, you're looking for a fight."
Ye Xinxin never expected that Yuan Xuemei would actually start fighting as soon as she said so.
Ye Xiaoxiao, who was standing in the yard pretending to trim flowers and plants, sighed inwardly after hearing the slap.
The tigers in the zoo are all fake tigers, but Yuan Xuemei is a real tiger!
Ye Xiaoxiao was originally a little bored listening to the two people's bland conversation, but now, she suddenly became energetic.
Ye Xinxin saw that she was beaten, and Shangguan Yu didn't even show any intention of coming in to stop it. Now her false grievance suddenly turned into real grievance.
"Miss Yuan, what are you doing?"
"We have no grudges against each other. First you insulted my reputation, and now you're even attacking me directly. Could this be the etiquette of a noble family you mentioned?"
"Don't even mention that Your Highness and I are in love. Even if we are not, you and I are both guests of the palace. What right do you have to hit me?"
Yuan Xuemei didn't care about all this. Seeing Ye Xinxin being beaten but still insisting on staying here, she became even angrier.
"Ye Xinxin, who do you think you are? You're just a poor thief, and you dare to teach me a lesson."
"It's already this late and you're still trying to flatter yourself. I'm really giving you face."
Yuan Xuemei was about to take action again, but Ye Xinxin was on guard at this moment and would not let her succeed.
Seeing that Shangguan Yu had not come in yet, Ye Xinxin could not just stand there and get beaten, so she had no choice but to start fighting with Yuan Xuemei.
Yuan Xuemei brought two maids, while Ye Xinxin only brought Qiuping.
In addition, she always hoped that Shangguan Yu would come to help her, and she was obviously at a disadvantage.
"Snap, snap, snap"
Ye Xinxin was slapped several more times. Ye Xinxin was so beaten so hard that she slapped Yuan Xuemei in return.
Yuan Xuemei was used to being spoiled and had never suffered such injustice.
"You two, hold one down each. How dare you hit me? I'm going to beat her so hard that her mother won't even recognize her."
The maids around Yuan Xuemei were all specially prepared for her by her father, and they were no match for Qiu Ping and Ye Xinxin.
Yuan Xuemei was about to hit Ye Xinxin again, but she was held down by the maid and had no chance to fight back.
Seeing that Yuan Xuemei's slap was about to fall again, Shangguan Yu shouted coldly.
"Stop, Miss Yuan, why are you so angry that you're causing a scene in my palace?"
Yuan Xuemei was startled by the sudden shouting. It took her a long time to remember why she came here.
She slowly stopped, signaled the maid to let go with her eyes, and then looked at Shangguan Yu.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. Ye Xinxin has gone too far."
"She scolded people just because they said hello to her."
"She came here at the invitation of the prince, but she keeps saying that she and the prince have secretly agreed to spend their lives together."
"I couldn't bear to see her slandering the prince's reputation, so I couldn't help but argue with her."
"Who would have thought she would just slap him in the face."
"I've never suffered such injustice since I was a child. I couldn't bear it anymore, so I resorted to violence."
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for them!"
Ye Xinxin was very angry when she heard Yuan Xuemei's words of putting the blame on her. Just as she was about to refute, Yuan Xuemei continued to speak.
"Your Highness, without the three letters and six engagements, and without the personal decree of His Majesty granting the marriage, how dare she slander your reputation like this?"
