The princess's frustration was palpable, yet she couldn't do anything to Yunzhi. Just as she was about to let her go, Princess Langhua spoke up again, saying, "Mother, what are you waiting for? Quickly arrest that vile woman Yunzhi! She ruined me; I'll make her wish she were dead!"
"Who are you calling a slut?" Yunzhi stepped forward and slapped the other woman across the face before saying, "Princess Langhua, you know perfectly well who is harming whom. Since you insist on bringing this up, I have no choice but to prove my innocence."
"First, let's talk about this man. Surely I didn't bring her into the manor? You know, when I entered the manor, it was Fang Mama, the Princess's personal maid, who personally greeted me and escorted me to you. Secondly, this is my first time in the Princess's manor. I don't even know where the pavilion is, let alone have the ability to prepare such fine things."
When talking about good things, Yunzhi's gaze fell on the incense burner in the pavilion, where the incense was still burning.
Once you investigate, you can find out where this thing came from and who made it.
"Thirdly, I was feeling unwell while admiring the flowers, but the princess personally escorted me to this pavilion and later brought people over. If I hadn't been somewhat sensible, I would be the one who is utterly disgraced today."
"Therefore, I would like to ask, when did I offend the princess to want to harm me like this? In any case, I am now considered a member of the royal family, and also your elder. What are you really thinking, trying to harm me like this? This makes me wonder if you are pretending to harm me, but actually want to harm the Regent?"
Upon hearing this, both Princess Langhua and the Eldest Princess changed their expressions. Especially the Eldest Princess; although everyone knew that the Emperor and the Regent were at odds, now that Yunzhi had encountered trouble in her residence, people wouldn't think she wanted to harm Yunzhi, but rather that the Emperor wanted to harm Yunzhi.
First he bestowed a marriage upon someone, then he harmed them; the emperor's image in the public eye was...
The eldest princess dared not think any further.
The emperor's prestige was already lower than that of the regent, and if this happened, the emperor's prestige would certainly suffer a significant drop.
Princess Langhua wasn't stupid; she finally realized the seriousness of the situation. She couldn't help but regret listening to her friends' urging and attacking Yunzhi.
Now look what happened. Yunzhi is fine, but Yunzhi not only lost face in public, but also ruined her reputation and got slapped.
The more Princess Langhua thought about it, the more she regretted it. She turned to the eldest princess and called out, "Mother!"
"Guards, take the princess away and make her reflect on her actions." The princess glared at her daughter and ordered her to be taken away.
Once everyone was alone, the eldest princess looked Yunzhi up and down and said coldly, "No wonder the Regent didn't mind that you were a second wife and wanted to marry you. Putting everything else aside, your words alone are quite formidable."
"Thank you for your praise, Princess. I have many more strengths than you think. If I can really marry the Regent, then we have a long future ahead of us, and you will see it someday."
"You?" The princess's face darkened. She was being sarcastic, mocking Yunzhi, but Yunzhi actually admitted it.
What does "there's plenty of time" mean? What does she want to do?
Yunzhi didn't care what the princess thought; once the matter was resolved, she prepared to leave.
But who knew that some people just love to court disaster and don't want her to leave?
