Chapter 553 Jinchuan, do you doubt me?
Princess Huayang's face suddenly darkened, and she said with disgust, "Who the hell is Song Huai'en? How dare he talk about divorce with Yan Qing?"
Song Yanxi said, "The divorce was what my mother requested."
The courtyard fell silent for a moment.
Princess Huayang snorted coldly, not knowing what she was thinking of. "I thought she was going to die in that tiny Yongchuan Marquisate."
Seeing that she didn't seem angry, Song Yanxi continued, "Marquis Yongchuan loves his daughter Song Baozhu the most. After what happened today, he will definitely not let it go."
"Just him?" Princess Huayang sneered. "His own daughter committed such a shameful act in my courtyard. I'd like to ask him how he raised her."
She raised her eyes to glance at Song Yanxi and said meaningfully, "It's really rare that you don't have even a trace of that shameless villain Song Huai'en.
Well, you guys can leave now, I'm tired."
Princess Huayang turned to leave when she heard Mo Jinchuan suddenly ask, "Aunt, don't you have anything to say about that Hundred Butterfly Clothes?"
Mo Lingxuan suppressed his laughter and scolded, "Xiaowu, how can you talk to your aunt like that?"
Princess Huayang's face darkened, and she asked in a cold voice, "Jinchuan, are you doubting me?"
Mo Jinchuan: "My nephew doesn't dare."
"Don't dare? I think you are very brave!"
"Aunt, calm down."
"You should also shut up. Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking."
Princess Huayang gave Mo Lingxuan a look, and he couldn't laugh anymore.
He shrugged and said innocently, "Xiaowu has upset my aunt. Why is my aunt angry at her nephew?"
Princess Huayang: "As an elder brother, you don't know how to discipline your younger brother. Isn't it right for me to scold you?"
Mo Lingxuan: “…”
Too lazy to listen to his provocation, Princess Huayang called out directly to the outside: "Qingque!"
Qingque came in quickly, holding the same Hundred Butterfly Dress that Song Baozhu had just been wearing.
Whether it was the embroidery on the clothes or the stains, it was certain that it was the same one as before.
She walked straight to Song Yanxi and said respectfully, "Princess, this dress was originally prepared by my prince to be given to you.
There were so many people watching just now that I had no choice but to say that. I hope the princess will not misunderstand His Highness."
Princess Huayang scolded coldly, "Stop talking!"
Qingque lowered his eyes and handed the tray forward, "Please check it, Princess."
Song Yanxi politely declined, "No need, there's nothing wrong with this dress."
Since the princess dared to let Qingque present it, she must be absolutely sure.
Furthermore, she didn't think it was the dress that was the problem.
When she was talking with Princess Ning just now, she carefully recalled the fragrance on her dress, which was a precious spice.
It is famous for its rich and long-lasting fragrance.
Because it was too precious, only the concubines in the palace were qualified to use it. And because its fragrance was too strong and conspicuous, it was mostly used on the dresses of the favorite concubines.
The only drawback is that its fragrance is too strong. When the wind blows, you can smell this sweet fragrance that seems to drown you from a long distance away.
The Prince of Changle was probably attracted by this smell.
But how could a foreigner like him enter Princess Huayang's backyard?
Just as she was thinking, Song Yanxi heard Mo Jinchuan ask what she was thinking.
Princess Huayang said with a sullen face, "Yuque, drag the people on duty today to me."
Soon, two trembling guards were thrown in front of everyone.
Qingque threw a purse on the ground and asked coldly, "Are you going to say it yourself, or should I say it for you?"
Upon hearing this, the two guards broke out in a sweat.
The two of them looked at each other, and before they could say anything, one of them was kicked in the shoulder by Qingque and flew out.
The man fell heavily to the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fainted with his eyelids rolling up.
Seeing this, the other man kowtowed and said tremblingly, "Your Highness, this money was given to me by the Marquis of Changle to buy me some wine."
Yunque asked, "Why would the prince give you money for no reason?"
The guard glanced at Song Yanxi secretly and said hurriedly, "The prince said that he has admired Princess Yong'an for a long time. He learned that Princess Yong'an is about to get married and wanted to see her from afar."
"What the hell is the backyard? How dare you let him in like that?"
"Aunt Yunque, please allow me to report this. The Marquis of Changle's son swore to heaven and cursed the Marquis of Changle. We have no choice but to believe him."
"Since you believe everything the prince says, has he ever told you the consequences of betraying His Highness?"
As soon as Yunque said this, the guard collapsed to the ground, his face ashen as death, and he shouted, "Your Highness, please spare my life."
Princess Huayang said sullenly, "Tie him up and hand him over to the Marquis of Yongchuan when he arrives."
After what happened today, Song Huai'en will definitely not let it go.
But on one side is the Princess's Mansion, and on the other side is the Changle Marquis' Mansion. If he really calculates it, he may not get any benefit.
But if we just expose the truth like this without giving him an explanation, even a clay figure will have some temper, and it will be of no benefit to the princess's mansion if it gets out.
Therefore, someone has to bear Song Huai'en's anger.
The guard also knew that the two of them would not escape death, and hurriedly looked at Song Yanxi and said, "Princess, we two brothers only thought that the Changle Marquis's son was infatuated, but we didn't expect him to be so lustful and bold."
He wanted to say something else, but Yun Que raised his hand and the guards immediately dragged the two of them away.
Princess Huayang looked at Song Yanxi and said with an apologetic look in her eyes, "Today's incident was entirely due to my failure to control my subordinates, which gave that daring and perverted scoundrel the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Don't worry, I will go to the palace later and make sure the Marquis of Changle gives your sister an explanation."
Glancing at Song Yanxi's slightly frowned expression, Mo Jinchuan spoke even faster, "Aunt, you don't know that Song Baozhu has been raised outside the Marquis's residence since she was young and doesn't have a proper identity.
Naturally, I can't call myself a sister to Yan Xi."
Princess Huayang glanced at him and said quietly, "I haven't said anything yet, and you're already protecting me?"
She sighed softly, as if feeling helpless yet relieved, and said, "After all these years, there is finally someone who can hold your heart."
As she spoke, she reached out and took Song Yanxi's hand, and took off a red jade bracelet, and said kindly, "It's rare that you two are so connected, and I'm very happy to see it.
You have fair skin, so this red jade is perfect for you."
Upon hearing this, Song Yanxi hurriedly took it off, "Your Highness, this thing is too valuable, I cannot accept it."
Princess Huayang held her hand, smiling gently, and said, "I originally prepared this bracelet for my future daughter-in-law. Giving it to you today is the best way to put it to good use."
After these words were spoken, Song Yanxi could no longer hold back.
Before she could say anything else, Mo Lingxuan said in a sour tone, "Aunt, this is too partial. The niece-in-law who hasn't married yet is rewarded, but does that mean the one who has already married is worthless?"
