Luo Shuiyou's eyes reddened as she was scolded, and she lowered her head in dejection and sadness.
"Is Yang An'an here? You good-for-nothing, I'm going to find her myself!"
Nancy raised her head and strode forward. Sure enough, she entered the hall and immediately saw the girl surrounded by people in the middle of the crowd. She then waved her sleeve and stepped forward with her head held high.
"This must be Miss Yang, who has recently risen to fame? I heard you took your mother's surname. I wonder who your father is?"
The sharp female voice shattered the harmonious atmosphere of the entire hall. Instead of the flattery and respect that most people showed when they saw Tong Su, there was even a hint of sarcasm and disgust. The people around her changed their expressions, turned around, and frowned.
"Why is she a princess consort?"
"She came alone? I heard that her relationship with Prince Ross hasn't been very good lately."
"Why is she treating Miss Yang like this? She doesn't seem like someone the royal family is vying for, but rather like... her enemy?"
"The title of Princess Consort is just a figurehead, so it's not surprising that she doesn't care about current affairs. But to give Miss Yang such a hard time in this situation, isn't that just plain brainless?!"
A murmur rippled through the crowd as they parted to reveal a stunningly beautiful woman at the far end.
Tong Su's lips curved slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes.
Princess Consort.
Nancy Milne.
"I heard that Miss Yang has a good relationship with the Crown Prince? It's just a pity, there are so many people who want to marry into the royal family. Looks and education don't matter, a clean background is the most important thing! Don't you think so?"
Nancy walked in with a sneer, her malice undisguised, causing those around her to frown.
The Princess Consort's words—
The smell of gunpowder is really strong!
"I heard that Miss Yang comes from planet E976-INE86? A remote place without even a name, the people must be very chaotic. Miss Yang also only has a mother and no father, and she was pregnant out of wedlock. Her background... Oh dear, I shouldn't have brought this up. Please don't be angry, Miss Yang."
The princess deliberately let out a startled cry, feigning apology, but her smile was defiant; there was not a trace of genuine remorse.
Her words made the expressions of those around her even more unpleasant.
What does it mean to say that the local customs are very chaotic?
What does it mean to have a child out of wedlock when there is only a mother and no father?
Isn't this practically pointing a finger at Miss Yang's nose and calling her a bastard with an unknown father?!
The old professor from the research institute, quick-tempered, couldn't hold back any longer and shouted, "Princess Consort, watch your words!"
Nancy said, "Yes, yes, it was my fault for not speaking properly. Oh dear, I just don't know how to talk. Even if it's the truth, it shouldn't be said so casually, right? Miss Yang, I apologize to you. Please don't mind."
This apology is even more disgusting!
Faced with such an insult, anyone would probably be so angry that they would jump up and start a fight on the spot.
The crowd was also filled with righteous indignation, and they were just waiting for Tong Su to speak so that they could chime in and help her denounce Nancy.
but.
Tong Su did not get angry.
She even smiled faintly and nodded, her voice soft and her manners impeccable.
However, what she said made Nancy's face turn deathly pale!
"Yes, getting pregnant before marriage isn't something to be proud of. It's only slightly better than being a mistress and driving the wife's entire family to their deaths, right? Do you think I'm right, Princess?"
"Well?"
"The mistress..."
A low gasp rose from the crowd. Although the matter concerning the prince's family hadn't escalated into a major scandal, everyone who needed to know about it now knew.
This is exactly what Miss Yang did – she really hit the Princess Consort's sore spot!
