Noticing the gazes from the people around her, Jiang Ranli couldn't help but glance at Emperor Kangxi, thinking that Emperor Kangxi had made her suffer. On such a day of celebration as New Year's Eve, she was being stared at with eyes as harsh as knives.
"Sister-in-law Anjia, I heard that your Frost and Snow Courtyard has been a big hit in the capital since it opened. It's no problem for it to make a fortune every day," the Third Prince said to Jiang Ran with a meaningful look.
His voice was not loud enough for Emperor Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, Concubine Yi, Concubine De and others who were sitting in the main seat to hear, but the other princes and their wives heard it clearly.
Guo Luoluo, Abahai and Jiang Ranli had a very good relationship. They were angry for Jiang Ranli at this time, but everyone else looked at Jiang Ranli with contempt.
Doing business has always been ranked last, and women doing business is even less accepted and favored by the world. Moreover, Frost and Snow Courtyard is a brothel, so people look down on Jiang Ranli even more.
Listening to the provocative words of the Third Prince, Jiang Ranli smiled, looked up and said, "It seems that the Third Master often goes to Frost and Snow Courtyard, otherwise how would he know that my Frost and Snow Courtyard is stunning. I would like to thank the Third Master for supporting Frost and Snow Courtyard."
The Third Prince originally wanted to embarrass Jiang Ranli, but he didn't expect that Jiang Ranli didn't care about his ridicule at all and directly fought back, which made him furious.
"An Jia, my master never goes to those messy places. If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful..."
"My third sister-in-law is so arrogant that she threatened her in front of me."
Just as the Third Lady Dong'e Qingyin was about to speak, Yinzhen interrupted her. His dark eyes swept over her, making her dare not utter another word.
The Tenth Prince on the side laughed when he saw this, "Third sister-in-law, I'm not trying to refute you, but do you know whether Third Brother has been to those places? I saw Third Brother in Frost and Snow Courtyard a few days ago. By the way, Third Brother even asked for a discount by claiming to be Ninth Brother."
In the past, many people didn’t know what a discount meant, but since Jiang Ranli and Jiang Fan’s business grew bigger and bigger, people all knew what was going on.
After hearing what the Tenth Prince said, Dong E Qingyin's face turned the color of liver, and then blue and white, looking extremely embarrassed and angry.
The Third Prince was even more ashamed. The looks from the people around him made him not know how to respond. He had just been mocking Jiang Ranli about Frost and Snow Courtyard, but the next second he was humiliated. There was nothing more embarrassing than this.
"Oh, Third Brother, what's going on? You say you look down on those places, but secretly you go there more frequently than anyone else. Moreover, Third Brother, you are a prince, but you have to give a discount when paying money by mentioning Ninth Brother's name." Abahai and the Tenth Prince together sought justice for Jiang Ranli.
Her words made the people around her look at the Third Prince, which made things even more strange.
Seeing this, Dong E. Qingyin trembled a few times and said, "Sister Abahai, speaking of it, since the Tenth Master was able to meet the Third Master, he must have been to that kind of place many times."
Hearing this, Abahai nodded gracefully, "Yes, I didn't say that my master never goes to that kind of place. After all, my master never asks for discounts when he goes there. Unlike my third brother, he is so simple and frugal. He is a role model among all the masters."
Abahai smiled all the time while speaking, but her words made Dong E Qingyin and the Third Prince so angry that they almost vomited blood.
Emperor Kangxi did not notice what was happening between them, but the Crown Prince beside him did. He looked at everyone at the table with a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
