Chapter 169: Vicious Female Supporting Character vs. Childless Emperor 13
Ji Yunhuan was far away and couldn't hear clearly what they said. He could only hear Xia Mengyao's angry roar, which was full of energy and completely different from the delicate Shangguan Ruoxue.
Long Haochang will definitely protect Shangguan Ruoxue, and Xia Mengyao has completely hated Shangguan Ruoxue. She is too familiar with this plot, as she was like this in her previous life.
No matter how Long Haochang humiliated her or rejected her, she was deeply in love with Long Haochang and firmly believed that as long as she defeated Shangguan Ruoxue, Long Haochang would like her.
Obviously it was Long Haochang who humiliated her, but she vented all her anger on another woman.
Long Haochang said that he only loved Shangguan Ruoxue, but he had a lot of female confidantes around him, including the top prostitute in the brothel, chivalrous women in the martial arts world, and talented women in the capital. They all admired him, and in the end, they were all taken into his harem.
Judging from the date, Long Haochang will soon take action against Marquis Zhongyong, and the fate of Marquis Zhongyong's mansion may be even more tragic than that of the Prime Minister's mansion.
Xia Mengyao eventually entered the palace, but she was only a low-ranking official lady. After severely "punishing" her, Long Haochang let her die miserably in the harem.
Seeing that the young lady looked unhappy, Qiao Yue thought that the young lady was still thinking about the Crown Prince, so she comforted her: "Young lady, don't be discouraged. There is still a long time to come. You will definitely become the Crown Princess!"
Ji Yunhuan flicked Qiao Yue's forehead and said in dissatisfaction: "Pooh, pooh, pooh! Don't say such unlucky words anymore. You will be in bad luck if you get close to Long Haochang. Whoever wants to be the Crown Princess can be the Crown Princess. I don't care!"
Qiao Yue touched her red forehead and became more and more confused about the young lady's thoughts.
Could it be that the young lady has been hit hard for too long and is she really going to let go of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
In the past, when the young lady was very angry with His Highness, she would also say out of spite that she didn't like His Highness. I don't know whether it was true or not this time.
"What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and catch up!"
Ji Yunhuan quickly found a piece of grass with a wide view, a gentle breeze, and most importantly, far away from people, which was very suitable for flying a kite.
The kite, which was one meter tall, quickly flew into the sky. Ji Yunhuan ran wildly on the grass, pulling the string. He was sweating all over and felt refreshed. All the unhappiness he had just felt was blown away by the wind.
"Xizi! Come and help me hold the string. I need to take a rest."
Long Lin could only jump out of the cat's nest and hold the coil with his mouth. As he ran, he felt something was wrong. The kite was too big. No matter how hard he tried, his body floated up involuntarily.
Ji Yunhuan was amused by the flustered Xizi and laughed out loud. Long Lin was so anxious that he meowed and loosened the coil in his mouth as soon as he meowed, and the kite flew away in an instant.
Ji Yunhuan hurriedly chased the kite, and just as he was about to grab the coil, the wind direction suddenly changed.
The big kite crossed the stream and flew all the way towards the hillside. Coincidentally, Long Haochang was in that direction. Wherever Long Haochang went, there was a group of people following him, making him very conspicuous.
Ji Yunhuan frowned, as if no matter how she tried to avoid it, there would always be an invisible force pushing her towards Long Haochang.
Qiao Yue chased in the direction where the kite fell and shouted, "Don't worry, young lady. I will go and pick up the kite right away."
Ji Yunhuan didn't want to meet Long Haochang. Before making all preparations, the wisest choice was to stay away from Long Haochang.
"Qiao Yue, come back! I'm tired. Let's go back to Daxiangguo Temple. After we see mother, we'll set off for home."
Qiao Yue naturally listened to the young lady and quickly picked up the scattered things on the ground.
Long Lin jumped into his cat bed very consciously. It would be good to go back to Daxiangguo Temple so that he could meet the abbot.
Ji Yunhuan pushed Xizi away quickly. In the huge back mountain, she didn't know why, but halfway through the journey, she ran into Long Haochang and his group.
Long Haochang threw the kite in front of Ji Yunhuan and said angrily, "It's you! You have such a vicious heart. It's not enough to send Xue'er to the family temple, you even want to disfigure her!"
Shangguan Ruoxue had a thin scratch on the right side of her face. She covered her face with one hand and pulled Long Haochang's sleeve with the other, begging:
"Brother Haochang, don't be angry. I believe my sister didn't do it on purpose. Let's go quickly. If the master knows that I sneaked out, he will definitely punish me."
Long Haochang caressed Shangguan Ruoxue's tear-stained cheek lovingly, feeling extremely distressed, "Xue'er, don't be afraid. I will never let you suffer any injustice while I am here. If the Prime Minister's Mansion cannot accommodate you, I will take you back to the Crown Prince's Mansion."
Shangguan Ruoxue cried and shook her head, "No! I have no status and no position. If I go back with His Highness, wouldn't it be a tarnishing of His Highness's reputation? How can His Highness's glory be tarnished by Xue'er?"
Long Haochang sighed, his heart of pity growing stronger, "Even though I am the crown prince, I cannot help myself sometimes. Don't worry, when the time is right, I will definitely give you a status."
The two of them pulled each other and expressed their feelings to each other, like a pair of star-crossed lovebirds.
More and more people gathered together, and the small peach blossom forest became very lively. There were also noble ladies who were sighing about the prince's deep love and loyalty.
Ji Yunhuan just found it funny. If Long Haochang was really in love with Shangguan Ruoxue, he should ask the emperor to grant her marriage and give her the position of Crown Princess. Why drag it on and give other women more ideas?
"Instead of crying here, you might as well find a doctor quickly. If the doctor doesn't come, Miss Shangguan's wound will heal."
Long Haochang was furious. He looked down upon Ji Yunhuan and said sternly, "I was wondering why I didn't see you today. It turns out you were hiding here to hurt people. You wanted to run away after you hurt them. Do you think you can get away?"
"Prime Minister Ji is a man of high moral character, how could he raise a daughter as vicious as you? In my opinion, Xue'er is more like a legitimate daughter raised in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and you are at most a country woman who is not worthy of being in public!"
The noble ladies around suddenly became particularly righteous. They rushed to scold Ji Yunhuan for being vicious and praised Shangguan Ruoxue for her noble character, as if they were not the ones who despised Shangguan Ruoxue for her humble background.
Everyone was waiting to see Ji Yunhuan make a fool of herself, waiting to see her fly into a rage and behave in an ugly manner.
Ji Yunhuan was very calm, her eyes were clear, her manners were dignified, and she did not lose her composure at all. "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is of noble status, and you casually accused me of a crime. What basis does Your Highness have to believe that I intentionally hurt someone?"
Long Haochang stepped hard on the kite on the ground, "Here is the evidence! How dare you say this kite is not yours? In the entire back mountain, you are the only one who disregards decency and runs around with a kite, clearly looking for an opportunity to take action."
Ji Yunhuan argued, "It was just an accident. How could I have let the kite scratch Miss Shangguan's face at such a long distance? If I could call the wind and rain and control the wind direction, wouldn't I be a god?"
Long Lin jumped out of the nest and meowed at the prince a few times. He testified that it was really just an accident.
Although the prince did not understand what he said, he believed that the prince he chose was definitely not a brainless person.
Long Haochang glanced at the cat on the ground with disdain and sneered, "It's really an ugly person raising an ugly cat. I'm too lazy to waste my words with you. No matter how you argue, it's you who harmed Xue'er."
"You must apologize to Xue'er today, and then have the Prime Minister's Mansion send a sedan chair with eight bearers to take Xue'er back home and treat her as the legitimate daughter. If you can get along well with her, I will forgive you for Xue'er's plea for you."
