Chapter 253 Beauty is a Trouble
Princess Duanyang looked at the Left Prime Minister's wife with displeasure, "You should also shut up. Regardless of who was telling the truth, the Dugong's wife is a first-rank state guardian. Her status is noble, and she is not something you can casually discuss!"
No matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone pretended to be meek and said yes on the surface!
Princess Duanyang looked at them again, then threw her handkerchief with a bad look on her face, turned around and left with her people.
Madam Rongchang followed behind the others, looking at her sister with an unhappy expression. "Didn't I tell you to stay close to me once you enter the palace? Don't run around or talk nonsense. The palace is full of important people, and a careless move could lead to disaster. Did you ignore my words and go off to quarrel with others?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Zihan immediately became angry and said, "Eldest sister, what are you talking about? I went to argue with someone because they were so audacious as to mock the Du Gong's wife, and I was so angry that I just argued with them for a few words."
Seeing this, Madam Rongchang frowned and stared at her, saying, "You haven't even met the Dugong's wife, why are you so angry about her?"
Ji Zihan smiled smugly. "Although I've never met the Dugong's wife, Her Royal Highness the Princess and the others are familiar with her. I just heard that the Princess likes her very much, and that Second Young Master Xie and Sister Xu also care about her very much. So, if I hear someone saying something bad about her, it's natural for me to stand up!"
Madam Rongchang frowned even deeper. "So what you did just now was actually just to show it to the princess and the others?"
Ji Zihan's face fell in displeasure. "Eldest sister, how can you say that? I was angry to begin with. She's the wife of Governor Ning. She was even granted the first rank yesterday. Her status is so noble. If someone says something bad about her, I should help her vent her anger!"
Mrs. Rongchang looked even more displeased when she heard this. In the final analysis, it was just because of the other party's status that she wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with him!
Looking at the smug look on her face, Madam Rongchang couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Does she think her methods are so clever?
He didn't see Princess Duanyang and the others, and he didn't have any intention of getting close to her afterwards. He even wanted to step on the wife of the governor to curry favor with him, but he didn't even think about whether she would appreciate it!
My sister is really ambitious, but unfortunately she doesn't use her ambitions in the right way at all. She is becoming more and more disappointed!
On the other side, the ladies saw Princess Duanyang leave in displeasure. Someone frowned in surprise and said, "I've never heard that Princess Duanyang is so familiar with that Xiao family member before. It's unexpected that she would scold us because of this person!"
The Left Prime Minister's wife said with a bad look, "You were slow in getting the news. The reason the Prince Consort divorced Princess Duanyang was because of the advice given by Mrs. Xiao. This shows how close their relationship was."
Xu Shilang's wife said coldly, "It's because of this woman again. The last time Governor Ning killed several officials, it was also because of this person!"
Madam Cai also chimed in, "This Xiao family has truly harmed countless people. I heard that the son-in-law and his son have been sentenced to death, and the rest of their family has been exiled three thousand miles away."
"I've also heard that this matter implicates Lord Lin of the Imperial Censorate. I wonder how the Ningdu Guild plans to deal with him?"
"I heard from my husband that it wasn't just him. Every official who came to the palace to file a complaint that day was implicated. No one can escape."
The Left Prime Minister's wife said gloomily, "The life and death of so many officials all depended on one woman. Beauty is truly a disaster!"
All the women nodded in agreement upon hearing this, and they truly disliked the Governor's wife to the extreme.
At this moment, a loud voice rang out, "Governor Ning, his wife is here!"
In the imperial garden, everyone heard the sound and looked up almost at the same time.
I saw a magnificent and huge imperial carriage slowly approaching. The huge carriage had thirty-six people on it, and was surrounded by two rows of embroidered guards in black brocade robes embroidered with red blood lotuses. In front of the carriage were beautiful palace maids holding large fans with sparrow feathers to shade the sun, as well as various fruits, incense balls, and precious mirrors.
The grand procession came, no less impressive than that of the emperor.
The faces of many officials were extremely ugly at this moment!
Just in front of the imperial carriage, Xiao Lezi said to everyone with a smile, "Master Du and his wife have arrived, why don't you all bow?"
No matter how ugly the faces of the people in the garden were, no matter whether they were willing or not, they could only shout "Long live the Governor" in unison and bow down.
After everyone lowered their heads, Ning Cuo's unbridled voice finally rang out from the imperial carriage. However, he didn't ask anyone to stand up. Instead, he said to the person next to him, "Madam, I will help you up!"
When everyone heard this, their faces became even gloomier.
The rest couldn't help but look up secretly!
I saw Governor Ning coming down first. He was wearing a dark red official robe that was dazzling and bright. His strange and beautiful face was even more gorgeous and weird, not to mention his sinister and strange aura.
Such a man, at this moment, smiled dotingly and raised his hand, gently holding a slender and white hand with brightly painted nails, and slowly walked down from the imperial carriage!
Seeing the slender, snow-white hand with gorgeous fingertips, everyone's eyes were involuntarily drawn to look over.
I saw a woman in a black long skirt slowly approaching. The skirt was as black as the starry night, so low-key, but when she wore it, it attracted people's attention more than anything else.
I saw a jade-like woman, with skin as cold and white as snow, seductive red lips, long black hair like a waterfall half tied up, waving a black beauty fan, her whole body lazy, her face was breathtakingly beautiful.
The woman was fanning herself elegantly with a maid's round fan, standing lazily beside the strangely beautiful man in red clothes. She looked like a black rose blooming from the deep red hell in a land stained with blood.
The man's boundless cunning and cruelty did not leave the slightest trace of blood on the woman, but instead made her look even more unscrupulous and beautiful!
Ning Cuo held the girl's hand, and then he swept his charming eyes over the crowd, and said lazily with his red lips, "Everyone get up!"
Everyone stood up one by one after hearing this, but many of them looked a little dazed.
The wife of the governor in front of me is so beautiful that it makes people dizzy!
Many women had even uglier expressions at this moment, especially the group led by the Left Prime Minister's wife. They had just scolded this woman for being a disaster, but they didn't expect that their words would come true!
Xiao Tu's beautiful eyes swept over everyone in the room, and her eyes suddenly bent down with a smile. It turned out that this place was more interesting than outside!
Look at the people in this yard, at least seven out of ten have ill intentions towards them. This is simply too good to be true!
