Xiao Tang saw that utterly disdainful tone and found it amusing.
She smiled slightly but didn't react.
Di Ningyue never expected that she would actually be laughing, and couldn't help but say to the palace maid beside her, "Look, she's still grinning like an idiot, isn't she stupid?"
The palace maids even nodded in agreement without thinking.
Everyone knows that this princess is completely unworthy of her position.
If it weren't for her marriage and the regent's awakening, she wouldn't have gotten such a great deal.
Looking back now, it really felt like a windfall.
Xiao Tang pursed her red lips and stepped closer to the two women, mistress and servant.
Di Ningyue immediately became alert, nocked an arrow, and aimed it directly at Xiao Tang's nose.
Di Yanjue was still reeling from the pain of being thrown over the shoulder. Seeing Xiao Tang being harassed by Di Ningyue, he didn't want to step in to help.
Why should he help such an ungrateful woman?
Just as Di Yanjue was waiting to watch the show, he suddenly heard Di Ningyue let out a high-pitched and piercing scream.
A woman's loud voice echoed through the Imperial Garden, like a lingering female ghost pleading for justice.
Di Yanjue noticed that direction.
It turned out that Xiao Tang had somehow snatched the arrow that Di Ningyue had aimed at her and turned it around to aim at Di Ningyue's throat.
"Princess, I think it would be quite nice if this arrow pierced your neck, wouldn't it?"
"Princess, think about it. The flowers blooming on the ground from this blood, and then I'll twist you into a beautiful pose and place you in the Imperial Garden for the world to see. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
"Wouldn't this be befitting of a princess?"
Xiao Tang spoke the most wicked words in the gentlest tone.
Even her bright almond-shaped eyes gleamed with an extremely wicked light.
Even a lowly palace maid knew she wasn't joking!
Di Ningyue was so nervous that she didn't even dare to swallow a single drop of saliva.
For a moment, my breath caught in my throat.
Xiao Tang tilted her head and smiled.
He had an innocent and naive look on his face, as if he didn't know anything about the world.
Why is Your Highness silent?
"You, you, you! How dare you threaten this princess?" The girl finally mustered some courage and glanced at Di Yanjue. "Fifth brother, come and help me!"
Since he's my cousin, why are you just sitting there watching the show?
Xiao Tang immediately felt bored and said, "Alright, what help are you talking about? Hurry up and apologize to your aunt, and I'll forgive you for being young, ignorant, naughty, and unruly. Hurry up!"
"Apologize? Why should I?" Di Ningyue felt aggrieved.
She's lived a life of luxury; when was she ever warned to apologize?
"Oh? You don't want to? Then I'll just have to do it this way..."
Just as Xiao Tang was about to tighten her grip on the arrow's fletching, it was about to pierce Di Ningyue's neck.
A young girl's skin is naturally thin, and a sharp arrow could easily cut through her delicate, fair skin.
Only one inch!
It's only a short distance of one inch!
Di Ningyue was so nervous that she could hardly breathe. She apologized, "Okay, okay, I apologize. I didn't mean it. Please forgive me, Ninth Imperial Aunt."
Xiao Tang tossed away the arrow with a hint of satisfaction.
One stomp and it's broken.
A snapping sound rang out, as if striking Di Ningyue's heart heavily.
Di Yanjue was also taken aback by Xiao Tang's imposing manner.
this……
The woman who appeared so weak and spineless in front of the Regent turned around to be extremely fierce.
Seeing that the threat was over, Di Ningyue seized the opportunity and immediately scolded, "Xiao Tang! How dare you threaten me! I'll tell my father right now, so you'll know—"
Before he could finish speaking, a series of footsteps approached.
Xiao Tang, with her sharp eyes, spotted the villain in his brocade robes approaching.
"Waaaaah, my lord husband~~ Princess Huaiyu is bullying me!"
