"Is that so? That's truly my misfortune! Being favored by the princess has brought so much trouble, and I almost got beaten up. I'll have to be more careful from now on! Who knows, I might die any day now!"
Seeing that she had given in, Lin Yuxin didn't care, even though she figured even a dog wouldn't believe what she said! But she still made a sarcastic remark.
Then he put away the sword in his hand, hung it on his waist, and left it hanging there conspicuously.
As the princess listened to Lin Yuxin's words, she could barely suppress the metallic taste of blood in her throat.
Isn't what she's saying implying that if she dies, it's all the Prince Gong's mansion's doing? That vile woman!!!
"Alright, everyone, step back. Sorry for making a scene earlier. Now, let's play some games or come up with some entertainment to liven things up and keep us entertained!"
The princess took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, before waving her hand to dismiss the servants. Then she explained to the ladies around her, who had various expressions on their faces.
The ladies were all very perceptive; seeing that the matter was finally over, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief and put on smiles, saying:
"Hehe, yes, Your Highness is right. We're being so boring. Let's play some games to cheer ourselves up! Don't let such rude people ruin our mood!"
"That's right, why don't we let these girls perform a talent?"
The first to speak was the Prime Minister's wife. She looked somewhat plump, but she was very shrewd. She had been watching the drama unfold for quite a while, observing the feud between the Princess Consort and the Princess of Pingning.
He waited until they finished making a scene before coming out to play the good guy and break the tense atmosphere, but his words were deliberately meant to put Lin Yuxin down.
She had heard from her husband that he had suffered several losses at the hands of Princess Pingning, and that his own son had been imprisoned by her and was still not out.
Right now, she most hopes that Lin Yuxin, that bitch, will come to bad luck.
As soon as Madam Hou spoke, the other ladies chimed in, offering suggestions one after another, showing no signs of being frightened during the tense standoff.
After hearing Madam Hou's words, the princess glanced at her intentionally, a knowing look flashing across her face. Did she have a grudge against that vile woman, Lin Yuxin? If they did, then their goals were the same! She could use her!
Lin Yuxin watched as these ladies resumed their forced smiles, and she was quite impressed. She had witnessed firsthand the art of changing faces among the women of the capital.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Lin Yuxin assumed it was none of her business and pulled Zhao Hanyue back to sit down as if she hadn't heard anything.
Few people would dare to offend the princess at this time and come over to talk to Lin Yuxin and her daughter.
Although the matter has been temporarily resolved, it's clear to everyone that the princess is still angry, making it even less likely for them to be on good terms with Lin Yuxin and her group.
Zhao Hanyue and the other woman were happy to have some peace and quiet. She didn't say anything, and she did whatever Xin Xin asked her to do!
Xin Xin did all this for her sake, she can't let Xin Xin down!
After they were both seated, Zhao Hanyue leaned closer and whispered to Lin Yuxin:
"Xin Xin, what if the princess picks another fight? Shall we go back?"
It wasn't that she was afraid, but if they really clashed with Prince Gong's Mansion, they wouldn't come out on top either. She was afraid that Xin Xin would suffer.
"It's alright. Even if you want to leave now, they won't let you. They won't stop until they get what's coming to me!"
Lin Yuxin shook her head and said to Zhao Hanyue.
"But…!"
Zhao Hanyue became even more worried after hearing this! It would be fine if they were prepared, but what if they accidentally fell into a trap?
"Mother, we'll face whatever comes our way. You can't hide from it. We have to confront it head-on. Just wait, it won't be long!"
Lin Yuxin patted Zhao Hanyue's hand and whispered,
She didn't want to lie to Zhao Hanyue. She came today not only to see Princess Shuhe make a fool of herself, but also because since they had invited her, they must have made some preparations. Judging from how much Shuhe hated her, she would definitely do something ruthless.
She didn't want to leave any potential problems behind, as they might stab you in the back one day. She came here this time to put out this time bomb, Shuhe, right away!
Moreover, judging from Shuhe's appearance just now, she should be pregnant. Counting the time, it's been about a month since she came back and something happened. I just don't know if the people in Prince Gong's Mansion know.
Seeing that her daughter showed no fear, Zhao Hanyue didn't ask any more questions.
As long as her own daughter is doing well, that's good enough. However, she still whispered a few words to the old woman behind her.
The old woman nodded and quietly left.
Lin Yuxin saw it but didn't say anything! Since finding someone would put Zhao Hanyue at ease, let her do it!
The ladies in front have already decided on their performance talents, and two young ladies have already begun their performances.
Lin Yuxin rested her chin on her hand, watching the woman dancing in the garden with a serious expression.
[Hmm! Women in ancient times were truly beautiful inside and out, and incredibly graceful! Look at their figures, their eyes, their every gesture—if I were a man, I'd be absolutely smitten!!]
Lin Yuxin was practically drooling!
Zhao Hanyue: ...?
So she was sitting here cautiously, looking around warily, afraid that the princess would cause some trouble again, while her daughter was actually looking at pretty girls??
If her daughter hadn't been engaged, she would have thought her daughter was attracted to women!
Zhao Hanyue couldn't help but glare at her daughter. She deserved to be so scared, while the other girl was perfectly fine!
After the first performance, the second one began; the second lady was playing the guzheng.
If the first one is gentle and graceful, the second one is very pretty, but her every move exudes the demeanor of a well-bred lady.
