“Fourteenth Brother, she is Fourth Brother’s concubine. How can you speak to her like that? It’s extremely rude.” The Eighth Prince’s face darkened, though he didn’t want to admit it.
Fourteen glanced at her disdainfully, turned his hands behind his back, and said sarcastically, "Little sister-in-law, openly chatting and laughing with another man, shameless and utterly lacking in feminine virtue..."
"fourteen."
"Shut up!"
The two men, Ba and Jiu, suddenly changed color, shouted angrily, and stopped him from continuing.
Fourteen bit his tongue in frustration. He wanted to vent his mother's anger and put down Tong Xiaosao's arrogance. But his scolding had also dragged Eighth Brother and Ninth Brother into the mess, implying that they were having an affair.
Oh no! He glanced around. The servants were far away and probably hadn't heard anything. Fourteenth Prince was sweating bullets.
The eighth and ninth brothers looked extremely grim, and the fourteenth brother, knowing he was in the wrong, quickly bowed and apologized.
Nan Yi was furious. She had only exchanged a few words with the Eighth and Ninth Princes. How could she be so shameless? To hell with womanly virtue!
She pushed aside the Eighth and Ninth Princes, walked a few steps to the Fourteenth Prince, and punched him hard on the bridge of his nose.
"You, you dare hit me?" Fourteen rubbed his nose in disbelief.
Nan raised an eyebrow and said, "I'll hit you. I hate it when people cheat on me. As for wifely virtue, go tell your wife that." She raised her hand and threw another punch.
Shisi pointed at her and hissed, "You're still hitting me? Don't think I don't hit women. If you hit me again, don't blame me for fighting back."
"Fight back! If you don't fight back, you're not a man, you're a coward!" Nan Yi cursed.
"You, you forced me to do this! I am the fourteenth prince of the Qing Dynasty, how can I be a coward?" The fourteenth prince said with a stern face, turning to the myna bird beside him, "You can prove it, she forced me to do this."
The Eighth Prince wanted to persuade him, but the Ninth Prince stopped him, saying, "Don't worry about it. The Fourteenth Prince just needs to be taught a lesson. Nan Yi won't suffer any losses, don't worry."
He was still furious. How could he say such a thing? He's brainless. He's trying to get him and his myna bird killed.
It would be best to let Nan Yi give him a good beating to wake him up.
"When I saw Nan Yi today, she looked much better. A while ago, she looked like she could be blown away by the wind. I heard that Fourth Brother dotes on Nian Shi. Recently, Hong Hui is not doing well, and Fourth Brother is taking care of Fourth Sister-in-law. I wonder what kind of miserable life Nan Yi is living in Fourth Brother's mansion."
Ninth Prince's eyes unconsciously revealed his heartache. He raised his hand to his chest and whispered, "Eighth Brother, if she's doing well, I'm sad; if she's not doing well, I'm even sadder."
He let out a sigh of frustration and muttered to himself, "I wonder how much I owed her in my past life that I have to suffer like this in this one."
Nan Yi is the insurmountable obstacle he can never overcome in this life.
The Eighth Prince felt bitter. He clenched his fists and stared at the two men who were fighting fiercely.
"Let's go see Honghui and Fourth Sister-in-law together tomorrow. Father has been very worried these past few days, and the Imperial Hospital has been scolded quite a bit."
After all, he is the only legitimate son of the fourth brother, so it is normal for the Emperor to be worried.
“Alright, I reckon that’s why Consort De summoned Nan to the palace,” said the Ninth Prince.
After a while, "Pfft~" Ninth Prince pointed at the two of them and suddenly burst into laughter, unable to catch his breath, "Eighth Brother, Fourteenth Prince is in trouble."
Ba'a curved her lips into a smile, a hint of amusement creeping into her eyes.
Fourteenth was ultimately inexperienced in combat. Although he was skilled in martial arts, he was still lacking compared to Nan Yi.
Nan Yi lifted him down, twisted his arm, and slapped Fourteenth Prince repeatedly on the back of the head, cursing, "I told you not to talk nonsense, I told you not to be so foul-mouthed, womanly virtue, to hell with womanly virtue, do you still dare to be arrogant? Hmm, you look down on women, and you can't even beat a woman, shameful, Fourteenth Prince, ptooey, you're just a coward, a coward who only knows how to talk tough."
Fourteen was furious and ashamed, but he couldn't beat Nan Yi. Stubborn as he was, he didn't utter a sound and let her hit him. But in his heart, he was thinking that he would get his revenge sooner or later.
The Eighth Prince couldn't stand it anymore and pulled Nan Yi away, saying, "Alright, the Fourteenth Prince knows he was wrong, let him go."
“He knows he’s wrong, but look at him, he doesn’t look like he knows he’s wrong at all.” Nan shook his hand, saying that praising someone is hard work.
Fourteenth brother touched his face, lowered his eyebrows and looked down. His expression was very unpleasant, probably because he felt ashamed and dared not face his two older brothers directly.
He's a grown man, and he can't even beat a woman. How will he ever have the face to go out and face the world again?
Seeing the Fourteenth Prince's sullen expression, the Ninth Prince suppressed a laugh and patted the Fourteenth Prince's shoulder, "Don't be embarrassed. The Tenth Prince was also flattered by her, but he lost even more miserably than you. Be content."
"Ninth Brother, are you sure you're not rubbing salt into your brother's wounds?" Fourteenth Brother said in a low voice, clearly dissatisfied.
"Haha~~ No way, I'm just sincerely praising you," the Ninth Prince said with a smile.
Fourteen turned and glared at his two older brothers, then turned and left in a huff. Knowing that Sister-in-law Tong was skilled in martial arts, they didn't even warn him beforehand, watching him embarrass himself. It was too unkind of them as brothers.
Nan clapped his hands. "Hmph, let's see if he still dares to be arrogant."
The Ninth Prince was speechless and said, "You're the arrogant one. You even hit a prince. The Fourteenth Prince is favored by Father Emperor and is also Consort De's darling. Be careful he reports you and you'll be in deep trouble."
"Really? He lost a fight and he has the nerve to complain?" Nan Yi said disdainfully.
The Ninth Prince thought for a moment, then shook his head decisively, "He wouldn't do anything shameful."
"You only dared to approach Fourteenth Brother because you knew his personality perfectly, right?" Eighth Prince asked with a smile.
Nan Yi replied, "Of course, I'm not stupid." This guy has a good foundation, and his martial arts style is powerful and aggressive. He will surpass her in the future.
He was skilled in martial arts, but he lost because of his weakness in strength, which was congenital and could not be changed.
After she had gone fourteen, the Ninth Prince urged her, "Don't you still need to go to the palace to pay your respects? There's not enough time, or Mother De will be angry if you're late. Hurry up and go to the palace."
"Oh, that kid's gone crazy. I'll take my leave now, we'll talk another day." Nan Yi climbed onto the carriage and ordered Xiao Shunzi to hurry up.
