Turning the corner, the tender yellow flower bushes were a mess, and the girl on them had hazy eyebrows and disheveled hair, her eyes looking as if they were covered by a layer of mist.
Hearing footsteps, she struggled to lift her head, stretched out her hands, and smiled lewdly: "Crown Prince, is that you? I knew you couldn't bear to part with Ali. Ali will serve you well."
Her delicate voice was even more alluring than that of the girls in brothels, leaving the ladies speechless for a moment.
Upon seeing Song Tangli in the flower bushes, Xuesong and Chen Shu almost fainted. Chen Shu raised his voice: "Why aren't you helping Miss Song up?"
Song Tangxue stopped her: "No, this flower has a strong medicinal effect, and it can be contagious if it comes into contact with the skin."
The maids who had intended to take action abandoned their plans and simply paced around the perimeter of the flowerbed.
Song Tangli was already confused. She reached out to grab the nearest maid: "Go and call the Crown Prince. He will definitely come. Ah Li is looking forward to going to Wushan with the Crown Prince, um..."
The maid was so frightened that she jumped back. Hearing such lewd words, everyone turned their heads and observed Princess Tingyu's expression with displeasure.
Princess Tingyu was also at a loss. This person was truly shameless. Although the Seven Stars Alignment was a potent medicine, those with a strong will could endure it.
Song Tangxue slowly curled a smile that was barely perceptible. Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. This was all Song Tangli's own doing.
"I heard the commotion from afar, so I've come to see what's going on." A young man in a blue brocade robe walked over from a distance, followed by a group of guards.
The only person who can come and go freely in Emerald Manor is the owner of Emerald Manor, the Empress Dowager's nephew, Feng Emerald.
As Feng Feicui approached, she saw the woman in the flower bushes spewing filthy language, her body writhing incessantly, her hair completely disheveled, hot, damp bangs plastered to her forehead—a truly pathetic sight.
Hearing the man's voice, Song Tangli pounced like a hungry tiger, grabbing Feng Feicui's leg: "Young master, please have mercy on me, I'm willing to serve you like a slave, ah..."
Song Tangli was tormented by lust, and her face gently rubbed against Feng Feicui's trouser leg.
Feng Feicui was a reckless person, and she looked at that face with great interest.
Song Tangxue didn't want to make a big fuss. When Feng Feicui appeared, she asked Haitang to inform Li Zhaoxian. She wanted to show Li Zhaoxian what kind of woman she doted on was.
Feng Feicui smiled wickedly: "It's a pity that I don't like anything that comes to me. I only like the strong ones."
"Especially someone like you, I just feel disgusted. You've dirtied my clothes. Someone, knock him out!"
The guards behind her obeyed and knocked Song Tangli unconscious. Feng Feicui disgustedly pulled out her trouser leg and patted it off, as if afraid of getting something dirty on it.
Upon hearing that Song Tangli was in trouble, Li Zhaoxian would undoubtedly rush over without stopping. Song Tangxue, not wanting to see him, turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they turned the corner, a figure in green grabbed them and pulled them into a dark place.
Behind them was an artificial hill with a babbling brook. Feng Feicui raised her chin and looked her up and down: "So this is the person he has his eye on."
He spoke in a sullen tone, but made no further moves.
Song Tangxue's face darkened as she looked at this rumored troublemaker, wondering who he was referring to with this nonsensical remark.
Footsteps came from behind her, and Song Tangxue frowned, trying to break free.
Feng Feicui's gaze met the man's, her eyes paused slightly, and she released his hand, not because she was threatened.
The man looked at his hand as if it were a severed hand.
Song Tangxue turned around and looked back; in an instant, all was silent.
The person standing next to the artificial hill is Xie Qianzhong.
Xie Qianzhong...
These three words were silently repeated in my mind, like a hammer pounding hard on my heart.
Yes, the person nominally in charge of this Emerald Villa is Feng Emerald, but it is actually Xie Qianzhong's property.
Xie Qianzhong frowned, glanced at Feng Feicui, and Feng Feicui raised her hands to prove her innocence.
"It's not good for you to disappear for too long. Go back to the front yard first," Xie Qianzhong said calmly to Song Tangxue as he turned around.
Song Tangxue knew he was doing this for her own good, but she couldn't bear to miss this opportunity to meet him, so she took a step forward in a daze.
Xie Qianzhong's eyes were fixed on her, but he did not stop her actions.
In the end, because Feng Feicui was present, Song Tangxue did nothing and turned to leave.
My heart and brows are burning with passion.
Some people feel lighter just by saying his name.
Upon arriving at the front courtyard, Li Zhaoxian's carriage was indeed already there. Li Zhaoxian alighted from the carriage, and Song Tangxue, as the nominal Crown Princess, led everyone in paying their respects.
Li Zhaoxian gave her a cold look: "Every time your sister is with you, nothing good ever comes of it. Why can't you protect her?"
Song Tangxue snorted and looked up at Li Zhaoxian without flinching: "Is she still a child? Or is she disabled and unable to move, or a mentally challenged child who can't speak and needs me to take care of her?"
Li Zhaoxian was furious. How could she curse Ah Li like that? She was a vicious woman with a heart of stone.
His fingers cracked in his palms, and all eyes were on him, making him afraid to move. Otherwise, he would definitely make Song Tangxue pay the price today.
Li Zhaoxian rubbed his temples, took a deep breath to suppress his anger, and asked in a cold voice, "Where is Ali? I'll take her to see the imperial physician first."
Upon hearing that something had happened to Ali, Li Zhaoxian rushed over after grabbing a physician from the Imperial Hospital. The physician was waiting in the carriage behind him.
Song Tangli, supported by her maid, changed her clothes in the side room and arrived late.
Upon seeing Li Zhaoxian, Song Tangli seemed to lose all her strength and was about to fall to the ground. Li Zhaoxian caught her with heartache and held her in his arms, saying, "Don't be afraid, A-Li, I'm here."
Song Tangli's tears fell uncontrollably, and she timidly hid in Li Zhaoxian's arms. Li Zhaoxian picked up Song Tangli and was about to leave.
Song Tangxue did not stop her.
Chen Shu watched as Song Tangxue gritted her teeth and rushed to Li Zhaoxian's side, then knelt down with a thud, tears streaming down her face: "Your Highness, you must do justice for Miss Song!"
Song Tangxue watched her with great interest, wondering what kind of trouble this trio would cause this time.
Chen Shu's heart pounded with anxiety, and his gaze toward Song Tangxue was filled with recklessness. Since he had already offended Song Tangxue, he might as well go all the way.
In case the Crown Prince is enraged, punishing Song Tangxue would allow him to avoid Song Tangxue's retaliation.
Li Zhaoxian stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed intently on Chen Shu: "Who upset Ali?"
Chen Shu took a deep breath and recounted the events of the meal like spilling beans: "Miss Song deliberately bought a painting to compete with Ali, causing Ali to lose. In the second round, she deliberately set difficult questions for Ali, making Ali lose face..."
Li Zhaoxian's gaze lingered on Song Tangxue, inch by inch.
The ladies around were utterly astonished by this ability to turn the tables; they couldn't believe someone could do something like this.
