Chapter 77 A Good Hand of Cards Played Badly



Yinlang was tall, and the main hall was packed with people, so people didn't notice Jiang Ranli's arrival at first. But after the Tenth Prince shouted, everyone looked over, and the entire main hall became extremely quiet.

Seeing this, Jiang Ranli couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart. The Tenth Prince was simply a disaster to her.

If he hadn't shouted that he was looking for her all over the capital, she wouldn't have been noticed by that group of digital legions. Now, if he hadn't shouted that, everyone in the room wouldn't be looking at her like a monkey like they are now.

Yinzhen sat upright in his seat, his cold eyes looking at the burly woman beside the Ninth Prince along with everyone else, his big hands clenched into fists.

"Tenth brother, I haven't congratulated fourth brother yet. I'll drink with you later."

Yinzhen glanced at the Tenth Prince and gestured to Jiang Ranli to come forward with him.

The Tenth Prince already knew that his behavior just now was a bit rude, so he just smiled awkwardly and said nothing else.

Jiang Ranli followed Yin'er and first bowed to the prince who was sitting in the main seat, and then congratulated today's protagonist Yinzhen.

"Fourth brother, congratulations on having another prince," Yinzhen said.

"Congratulations, Fourth Master," Jiang Ranli then spoke to congratulate him.

However, when he heard her voice, Yinzhen's eyes suddenly narrowed, and after a long time he said, "Thank you, ninth brother and concubine."

According to etiquette, after congratulating the host, Jiang Ranli, as a female member of the family, could go to the side hall to join the other female members of the family. However, just as she was about to bow and take her leave, she heard the voice of the prince in the main seat.

"I've heard that my ninth brother's concubine is extraordinary. After seeing her today, I find that she is indeed worthy of her reputation."

Hearing the mocking voice, Jiang Ranli's eyebrows twitched slightly.

If he wanted to say that he was ugly, he could have just said it directly. Why did he have to beat around the bush? No matter what, his royal father had personally granted him a marriage, so he had to look at the other person's feelings for the better. He couldn't mock himself in such an occasion. With his IQ, it was no wonder he couldn't achieve anything great.

The biological mother of Crown Prince Yinreng was Empress Renxiao Hesheli. It is said that Emperor Kangxi loved that woman very much, so as soon as her child was born, he was named Crown Prince and raised by Emperor Kangxi himself. This honor was unique in the entire Qing Dynasty.

Thinking of the historical records about Crown Prince Yinreng, Jiang Ranli felt that he was definitely a representative figure of 'playing a good hand badly'. Although his brothers were all eyeing him covetously, if his IQ was even a little higher, he would not have ended up like that.

A subtle glint of anger flashed across Yin'er's eyes. The prince's words seemed to be mocking Jiang Ranli's rough appearance, but in fact he was mocking him.

The hall was already a little quiet due to Jiang Ranli's arrival. After the prince said this, the entire main hall became even more silent, and a strong sense of danger condensed in the air.

"Prince, this concubine of your ninth brother was arranged by the Emperor himself. I think he was impressed by her extraordinary qualities."

When the atmosphere in the main hall was about to condense, a voice like the spring breeze and flowing water was heard. The voice was smiling and as gentle as jade. Just listening to it made people feel like they were in the spring breeze.

Jiang Ranli glanced at the Eighth Prince secretly, feeling very grateful to him. The Crown Prince's status was second only to the Crown Prince, and everyone present in the main hall were princes, royal relatives, but no one dared to refute his words. Only the Eighth Prince spoke up.

Although he knew that the Eighth Prince spoke not to help him but for Yinzhen's face, that sentence actually conveyed a message to the prince that his marriage was granted by Emperor Kangxi himself, and mocking him was equivalent to questioning Emperor Kangxi's decision.
