Chapter 1137: Climbing and biting
"Chunmei, Miss Yan is not feeling well. Help her down and ask the coachman to take her back to the capital!" Madam Song, the sister-in-law of Concubine Shu, whispered.
Chunmei, the maidservant beside her, bowed quickly and agreed.
Then, he walked to Song Xiangyan and whispered, "Miss Yan, you are not feeling well. Madam has ordered you to return to the capital to recuperate."
Song Xiangyan: "..."
Like falling into an ice cellar.
Song Xiangyan's face was pale and her head was buzzing.
She knew that if she was sent back like this, not only would her parents not forgive her, but she would also have no place in the circle of ladies in the capital.
No! She can't give up like this!
Sister Hui once hinted that she could introduce the second prince to her.
That's why she was so hostile to Princess Ford.
Song Xiangyan's mind was in a mess. In panic, she grabbed Xuanyuan Hui's arm and said anxiously, "Sister Hui, please talk to my aunt for me..."
Xuanyuan Hui frowned and said, "Sister Yan, it would be better for you to go back for now, so as not to displease the Concubine Shu."
Xuanyuan Hui may not care about Madam Song, but he cannot ignore Concubine Shu.
It was obvious that Concubine Shu was dissatisfied with Song Xiangyan.
After hearing Xuanyuan Hui's words, Song Xiangyan's voice suddenly became sharp.
"I won't leave! Sister Hui, you can't just ignore me. You said you could help me! You were the one who said Princess Fude was arrogant, conceited, and ignorant. She's just a country girl, but she's so delusional that she wants to steal the limelight from all the ladies in the capital. She's totally ignorant of the world..."
Before Song Xiangyan finished speaking, Xuanyuan Hui's face turned into one of shock and anger.
He glanced at the person next to him and almost went crazy.
Is this idiot trying to kill himself?
Xuanyuan Hui raised his hand and slapped Song Xiangyan with a "pa!"
"Shut up! You're talking nonsense! When did I ever say anything like that?" Xuanyuan Hui's gentle and generous image vanished completely, and she shouted with a red face, "I think you've gone crazy!"
Song Xiangyan covered her face, completely stunned.
This sudden change naturally attracted everyone's attention.
The Empress Dowager's face darkened.
"What's going on?" asked the Queen Mother in a dignified voice.
Although she didn't hear clearly what Song Xiangyan said just now, someone heard it clearly.
A palace maid came over, bowed to the Empress Dowager and said, "In reply to the Empress Dowager, Miss Song said..."
The palace maid repeated Song Xiangyan's words.
Xuanyuan Hui broke out in a cold sweat, and Princess Rong was both shocked and angry.
"Her Majesty, the Queen Mother, you can see clearly that this girl from the Song family must have gone insane!" Princess Rong stepped forward and said anxiously, "Hui'er has always been kind and gentle. I treated her like my own sister, but she turned against me and slandered me like this. She is truly heartless and worse than pigs and dogs!"
Xuanyuan Hui's eyes reddened, and she knelt down before the Empress Dowager, her voice choking with sobs as she said, "Please, Empress Dowager, help me. I didn't even know Princess Fude before, so how could I slander her?"
Xuanyuan Hui said this with a look of grievance on her face, and continued, "A few days ago, the Rong Palace held a banquet and specially invited Princess Fude to be a guest. The entire Rong Palace was full of goodwill towards Princess Fude."
"My grandmother even gave Princess Ford her treasured jewelry. Her eyes were filled with love and respect for her. She treated her like her own granddaughter."
"I have always respected Grandmother. Even if I were blind, I would never slander anyone Grandmother likes. Furthermore, I have been taught since childhood not to speak ill of others behind their backs. So, how could I possibly do something like speak ill of Princess Fude behind her back?"
Xuanyuan Hui burst into tears when she finished speaking.
"Hmmmm... Please, Queen Mother, help me and give me justice."
After saying this, he kowtowed deeply to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager looked at Song Xiangyan.
Song Xiangyan's legs had already gone weak and she knelt down.
Madam Song glared at Song Xiangyan fiercely, and said angrily, "What's going on? Why don't you report it to the Empress Dowager?"
The Empress Dowager will obviously protect the little girl from the Su family.
Between the Empress Dowager and Prince Rong's Mansion, Mrs. Song simply chose the Empress Dowager.
Even if we offend Prince Rong's Mansion, there is nothing we can do.
Song Xiangyan was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat, and her mind became clearer.
So, with a panicked look on her face, she stammered, "Your Majesty, please understand. I dare not speak nonsense. Every word I say is true."
Princess Rong's face was as gloomy as water, and she said viciously, "How dare you! You dare to quibble in front of the Queen Mother? You deserve to die!"
After saying this, he looked at the Empress Dowager, bowed, and said, "Empress Dowager, if such a stubborn and liar is not severely punished, it will really harm morals and corrupt those kind-hearted girls."
Princess Rong's few words were enough to sentence Song Xiangyan to death.
Not to mention marrying into a wealthy family in the future, a girl with a bad reputation might even lose her life.
Song Xiangyan is not stupid either. She used to target Tang Bao so hard just to please Xuanyuan Min.
Now, Xuanyuan Min was frightened and had not recovered yet, so he did not go with the spring hunt. Song Xiangyan became Xuanyuan Hui's follower.
Xuanyuan Hui had never targeted Tang Bao before, but Tang Bao got the golden lotus, which stole Xuanyuan Hui's limelight and naturally aroused Xuanyuan Hui's hostility.
Song Xiangyan naturally knew this, so she continued to target Tang Bao.
"Your Highness, I am innocent!" Song Xiangyan kowtowed heavily and said in fear, "I have never thought of targeting Princess Fude before. It was the old princess of the Rong Palace who wanted to marry Xuanyuan Min into the Su family. Xuanyuan Min was not happy about it and disliked the Su family's low status. So she deliberately targeted Princess Fude at the banquet and wanted to ruin this marriage..."
Before Song Xiangyan finished speaking, Princess Huaning's expression turned cold.
He glanced coldly at Princess Rong and her daughter.
She actually despises the low social status of her future husband's family. How despicable!
Although Song Xiangyan did not specify who in the Su family the old princess wanted Xuanyuan Min to marry, everyone knew that the phrase "marrying into the Su family" must refer to Su Laowu.
The Empress Dowager was also very unhappy.
For no other reason, Xuanyuan Min actually despised the Su family, which made the Empress Dowager very unhappy.
The fifth son of the Su family is the prince consort chosen by her granddaughter, and the little girl of the Su family, Fu Ya, is the one she loves as her granddaughter.
In such a family, a little legitimate daughter of Prince Rong's Mansion actually dared to target Fu Ya again and again just because of disgust.
What’s the matter? Are you bullying me because Fu Ya is young and soft-tempered?
The Empress Dowager was angry, and it naturally showed.
"I didn't know that Fu Ya was being bullied again and again right under my nose!" said the Queen Mother in a cold voice.
The aura of someone who had long been in a superior position burst out from him instantly.
She is no longer the old lady with kind eyes, devoted to worshipping Buddha and covered in sandalwood.
