Chapter 620 Little Bitch
Mrs. Fu knew that the old lady favored this girl, so she gave her a lot of silks and satins. Seeing that Fu Jinrou was quite sensible, she also gave her some jewelry.
Although it was partly to please Madam Fu, the one who benefited was Fu Jinrou, wasn't it?
The Fu family usually allows Fu Jinrou to enter and leave the main courtyard freely. Everything she eats, uses, and wears is exquisite. It is no exaggeration to say that she is raised as a girl in the family. Even the illegitimate girl in the family could not compare to her before she got married.
But Fu Jinrou is different. She has a gentle face but a dark heart.
It was obvious that she had taken her to the banquet at the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion with good intentions that day, and Qiaoqing took care of her in every way, praising her to everyone she met. But this evil-hearted woman went to the old lady's side after returning home, which resulted in her being scolded as soon as she returned home that day.
Whenever she thought of the day when Old Madam Fu called her over and blamed her and Qiaoqing for not bringing Fu Jinrou with her, knowing that she was not familiar with those ladies but still not introducing them to them, she felt embarrassed and even fell ill because of it.
Mrs. Fu wanted to tear the little bitch's face off.
If she hadn't happened to run into Fu Laiqing after being scolded by the old lady that day, her son would have heard her scolding Fu Jinrou.
Fu Laiqing repeatedly told her that Fu Jinrou was now being raised in the Fu family and her honor and disgrace were now one with the Fu family. It would be embarrassing for her to harm the Fu family, and even if she wanted to teach her a lesson, she couldn't do it so openly.
How could Mrs. Fu bear to play tricks on her?
Seeing Princess Huan teaching this little bitch a lesson, Madam Fu was very happy, but there was still a look of anger on her face.
"Princess, be careful with your words. Although Jinrou has just arrived in the capital and has been with us for a short time, she is gentle and well-behaved. The Fu family is not located in a remote and poor place."
"Although she violated the rules by entering the palace today, she was also filial to the Empress Dowager. Her mother also sent a message to the palace before she entered. Your words are really too much."
Qian Qiyue couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Fu who was speaking righteously, and felt that her words were a little strange.
If you say that Madam Fu stood up for Fu Jinrou, she did not refute a single word that Princess Huan said to Fu Jinrou. But if you say that she did not stand up for her, she was accusing Princess Huan of inappropriate words in every sentence. Moreover, since the Fu family had already sent the news to the palace earlier, how could Fu Jinrou not know about it?
If she knew that Madam Fu had already reported to the palace on her behalf, mentioning her entering the palace to tend to the sick, why would she only dare to shed tears and not speak back when Princess Huan scolded her just now?
Qian Qiyue couldn't help but look at Mrs. Fu a few more times, but before she had time to think about the strange feeling in her heart, she felt a heaviness in her palm.
She turned around and looked at Fu Jinrou, who was crying pitifully, and sneered in her heart, but snorted coldly on her face:
"Princess Huan is busy preparing for your son's wedding and having a grandson. How can she have the time to care about who Tang Ning and I make friends with?"
"But what you said about birds of a feather flocking together is quite true. A girl like Tang Ning, who is so beautiful, kind, gentle and lovely, would naturally make friends with a lovely girl like me."
"It's Mr. Xie, the young master. The first one is the courtesan Liu Niang, and the second one is a bunch of playboys."
"As the old saying goes, like father, like son. Since the princess is so bored, she should advise Mr. Xie more, lest your unborn grandson learn from his father and waste the immense wealth of Prince Huan's mansion."
Qian Qiyue didn't mention Fu Jinrou at all, but her words were very poisonous.
It seemed that he was scolding Princess Huan and her son, but he was scolding Prince Huan as well.
Like father, like son. The youngest son of Prince Huan is a playboy who likes to fight cocks and walk dogs. How can Prince Huan be a good person?
Rong Yue and Tang Ning both felt as if they were seeing Gu Helian, and the corners of the mouths of the other people around them twitched slightly. However, Princess Huan was furious and her face was full of anger.
"Qian Qiyue, how dare you insult my prince?!"
Qian Qiyue said innocently, "Please don't make a fuss. I respect Prince Huan very much. I also like Hengting Pavilion very much. I go there every now and then to take care of Prince Huan's business."
"Princess, when will you change your self-righteous nature? I clearly told you to restrain Young Master Xie so that he can have a bright future and the Prince Huan's family can have many descendants. How could you wrongly accuse me?"
"you!"
Princess Huan was completely defeated by Qian Qiyue in argument, and she was so angry that she waved her hand and wanted to hit her in the face.
Rong Yue quickly grabbed Princess Huan's hand. The smile on her face disappeared and her eyes became cold.
"Princess Huan, this is Shoukang Palace."
Princess Huan was furious: "This bitch humiliated my prince and insulted the palace..."
Tang Ning said calmly, "Sister Qian was just joking with us. It was the princess who took the initiative to bring up the topic. She was just repeating what you said before."
"You think she is insulting the palace, so the princess was just using Miss Fu to indirectly insult the Fu family and me?"
Princess Huan's expression changed: "Of course not!"
Tang Ning tilted his head: "If it's not, then why are you so angry?"
Princess Huan: “…”
She was so angry that her face was twitching, and she was stuck in a dilemma because of Tang Ning's words.
Tang Ning was obviously a little shorter than her, had a small bun like an unmarried girl, and looked young and immature. But when she stood there and looked up at Princess Huan, she was like a strong bow or a sharp sword. Although the string had not been drawn out of the sheath, the indifference in her black eyes made people's hearts suffocate.
Prince Ji's concubines and the others were vaguely stunned by this scene. Even Fu Jinrou stopped crying and looked up at Tang Ning, as if she saw the frosty and indifferent man on the corridor of the Fu family that day.
The charcoal fire in the stove crackled and the curtain outside was lifted.
"Ladies..."
The palace maid from Shoukang Palace who came in from outside didn't expect to see this scene. Seeing Rong Yue holding Princess Huan's hand and the two of them facing each other in a tense situation, she paused.
"Princess Huan, Madam Rong, what are you doing?"
Rong Yue let go of Princess Huan's hand and smiled at the visitor: "Nothing, I was just joking with Princess Huan."
Princess Huan stumbled to her feet, her wrist, hidden by her sleeve, aching terribly. But she met the palace attendant's gaze and managed a smile: "I was just joking with Madam Rong."
The palace maid looked puzzled.
Prince Ji's concubine quickly tried to smooth things over: "We were just chatting for a while, they were just joking, but why did my aunt come here?"
Seeing that everyone in the palace was so secretive, the palace maid, though somewhat suspicious, did not ask any further questions. She simply said, "The Empress Dowager has just woken up and knows that the princesses and wives have entered the palace. She sent this servant to come and call you over."
"Very good."
Prince Ji's concubine was happy. She had thought that if the Queen Mother didn't wake up, they would have to stay here forever. Now that she saw that the Queen Mother had woken up, she hurriedly said, "Let's go over there now."
