Chapter 261 Eliminating Harm for the People
"Speaking of my butterfly flower, I just told you ladies that it's made of silver with gold, not pure gold. Its price is only one thousandth of pure gold jewelry, so how can it be considered luxurious?! The headpiece on your head, made entirely of pure gold with pearls bigger than your eyeballs, is truly luxurious! Your Majesty, have you listened to your words? You call yourself a role model for women, but you're such a role model, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?!"
The ladies all nodded and said to the Crown Princess, "That's indeed the case."
The wife of the Marquis of Nanyan even stepped forward and said, "Crown Princess, that's indeed the case. I was saying that the money saved here should be donated to the Wuya Academy. Now the Prince of Han is running a girls' school and has invited me to be the supervisor."
"Ah! Really? I'll donate some silver too. Can I go?" Princess Ting came again. She was everywhere.
"Let's go!" The old princess could no longer stand, so she said to her daughter-in-law.
"Wait." Feng Aoqing took another step forward.
An Ke stretched out her hand again, and the two men had no choice but to retreat. It seemed safer to stand with the Crown Princess.
"Now that we've talked about taking the blame, let's talk about being humiliated!"
Both the old princess and Princess Duan became panicked.
"You were insulted after being taught a lesson by your elders. My people were beaten, but I didn't say you insulted me!" The old princess is the one with the toughest mouth in her body.
"You are not my elder," Feng Aoqing sneered. "You are the old princess of Tianyao, and I am Lord Zhaojing Fenghua. You keep saying that I am having an affair, as if you were under my bed. You speak so truthfully. What else can this be but an insult?!"
"According to the gentleman's agreement between the two countries, I need to report this matter to your king, and he and my Emperor Zhaojing will decide together." Feng Aoqing said heavily.
The Crown Princess took a deep breath and said to Feng Aoqing, "Lord Fenghua, the old princess is old and is also concerned about these children below. Please understand."
"From now on, please be careful with your words, old princess. I have a soft temper and you can say whatever you want. But if you meet someone with a strong temper, I will just hang myself with a three-foot white silk silk. Then you will not feel comfortable." Feng Aoqing shrugged lightly at her.
The old princess's face turned pale.
Feng Aoqing was not wrong in her guess. This old man must have killed many people, so he was so scary.
"Prince Yu is also a victim. When I return, I will definitely tell him about the humiliation I suffered today and ask him how I should deal with it in the future. If it really doesn't work out, I will just leave Tianyao. As for the Queen's illness and the illnesses of the other wives of the princes, I will be powerless to help."
You can't afford to offend the queen, so it depends on whether you can afford to offend all the princes' wives and King Yu.
When they are loving mothers and filial sons, I am afraid that you will not benefit at all.
The old princess' legs trembled and she hurriedly supported her daughter-in-law.
Feng Aoqing bowed to Zhou Jirou again and said, "Crown Princess, I don't think Tianyao is very welcoming to me. I will not attend this banquet. Thank you for your invitation."
"Feng Huajun!"
Zhou Jirou still wanted to stay, but Feng Aoqing had already led his people away without looking back.
"Now that we've invited people to a banquet and ended up irritating them, we can forget about our future." Some lady said.
"That's right, we can't save money even if we want to!"
"Frugal! Frugal! We don't have pearls as big as our eyeballs to wear on our heads, so how can we not be frugal?"
"That's right."
"Since Lord Fenghua has promised me that I can go to play with her anytime, I will go tomorrow. I want the material, the pearl flowers, and I want to go to the academy as well. I will go tomorrow to make her happy." Princess Ting made up her mind.
"The princess is right. You should go and explore first."
......
The old princess and the Rui princess were both humiliated. They received the queen's order yesterday and wanted to teach Feng Aoqing a lesson today, but they didn't expect to be taught a lesson by her.
I had thought of a lot of insulting words to say to her yesterday, but today I couldn't even say a few words. The thought of it makes me even angrier.
I was so out of breath that I almost fainted.
The old princess covered her head and pretended to faint, wanting to fall down. When she went to see the queen again the next day, she said that this girl must not be kept. She was so angry that she fell ill.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to fall, Princess Cong caught her.
"Please stand still! This is the Prince's Mansion." Chang Huaizhen said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
The two men knew very well what kind of person the prince was, so they shuddered and stood up straight again.
"Okay, let's stop talking, pack up, and go into the palace for dinner!" suggested the Crown Princess.
Everyone answered "yes" and followed her into the hall to have dinner.
The old princess and Princess Duan were too embarrassed to eat anymore, so they were helped back to Prince Duan's mansion.
Seeing that the two hadn't arrived, a lady complained, "Last time, my master and I went to a banquet, and because I wore the same color dress as her, I was kicked out and didn't even get to eat. It's so satisfying to see her being punished today!"
"I ran into her at the corner of the corridor and I gave way. But she actually said that I didn't step back and wait for her to pass before coming up, and she stood there and scolded me for a whole hour." Someone then exposed the old princess's evil deeds.
"What's that, you two? I have a brother from a branch family who owns a good piece of land. Princess Duan's brother took a fancy to it. Can you guess how much silver it sold for?"
"How many?"
The lady who said this raised two fingers.
"Two hundred taels?" That sounds okay.
The lady sneered, "Hmph, two taels."
Everyone exclaimed.
"You're so wicked you're always relying on your seniority. You're so corrupt, yet you still have the nerve to talk to us about luxury and frugality."
"that is!"
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked, saying that Feng Aoqing was getting rid of a threat to the people this time, and they thought she would be able to be quiet for a while.
When Feng Aoqing returned to Lanfengju, Han Lang was sitting on the doorstep, chewing a pear.
Seeing her come back, he handed her a pear and said with a smile: "Eat a pear first! The meal will be ready soon, and it will be all your favorite dishes."
Feng Aoqing sat next to him and ate the pear.
"How do you know I didn't get any rice?"
"Of course I don't know that. How can I have the nerve to stay there and eat after killing so many people?"
"You know, did they send someone to keep an eye on me, or did they already have someone in the Prince's Mansion?"
Han Lang smiled but did not answer.
"Pack up, we'll leave in two days." Han Lang turned his head and looked at her.
This silver jacket doesn't make her look very good today.
Feng Aoqing shook her head.
"What? Life is hard again, why are you reluctant to leave? Don't worry, my business has been dealt with, only your business is left." Han Lang thought she was worried that her business was not finished.
"No, because I just agreed yesterday to help your fifth brother treat his leg. If I want to leave, I have to wait until his leg is almost healed. I estimate it will take at least one month and at most three months." Feng Aoqing told Han Lang the truth.
"You mean, my fifth brother's leg can be cured?"
Feng Aoqing nodded in confirmation.
