Chapter 28 How dare you hurt her!
Yuwen Jue's handsome face darkened: "Jiang Ning, don't push your luck!"
Jiang Ning raised her fair wrist, "If you don't agree to my request, I'll go and tell the Emperor Emeritus right now!"
Yuwen Jue's face was cold and stern, and he clenched his fingers in anger.
"Jiang Ning, what else can you do besides tattling?"
Jiang Ning rattled off her skills with ease: "I know so much: healing the sick, doing business and accounting, composing poems, deploying troops..."
Yuwen Jue was so angry that he laughed instead.
"Jiang Ning, it's been so many years, and you're still as arrogant as ever."
Jiang Ning smiled brightly and sweetly: "You flatter me, Your Highness is still as narrow-minded as ever, unable to tolerate even a little woman."
Yuwen Jue's face turned ashen, and he angrily flung his sleeves and mounted his horse.
After Yuwen Jue left, Jiang Yuanshan and Jiang Baoqing immediately swarmed over like flies.
The two men stared at Jiang Ning with twisted, ferocious expressions and intense jealousy.
"Jiang Ning, give me the Emperor Emeritus's Buddhist prayer beads! What right do you have to wear such precious prayer beads?"
Jiang Baoqing stared jealously and greedily at the Buddhist beads on Jiang Ning's wrist, reaching out to snatch them.
Jiang Ning dodged to the side, and in doing so, grabbed Jiang Baoqing's right hand and twisted it.
In an instant, Jiang Baoqing's wrist snapped, and she screamed in agony.
"Jiang Ning, you shameless hussy, how dare you break my hand?!"
Jiang Ning curled her lips into a cold smile, "Jiang Baoqing, if you lay a finger on me again, it won't just be a discount, it will be a complete slash!"
Seeing Jiang Ning flip her hand and play with a sharp dagger, Jiang Baoqing was immediately terrified.
When did Jiang Ning, that stupid woman, become so capable?!
Jiang Yuanshan helped Jiang Baoqing up with heartache and scolded Jiang Ning.
"Jiang Ning, how dare you hurt my daughter! When we get back to the manor, I'll break your legs!"
Jiang Ning smiled indifferently: "That depends on whether your Jiang family has the ability."
She gently toyed with the Buddhist prayer beads in her hand, looking at Jiang Yuanshan defiantly.
"Even the Emperor shows deference to the Retired Emperor's Buddhist prayer beads. How can you possibly be superior to the Emperor?"
Looking at the precious Buddhist beads, fear flashed in Jiang Yuanshan's eyes.
Jiang Baoqing was in so much pain that she almost fainted. He helped her into the carriage with a livid face.
Then, without looking back, he left.
Little Bao looked at Jiang Baoqing and asked in his babyish voice, "Mommy, how do we get back?"
Jiang Ning rubbed his little head and said with a smile, "Isn't that simple? Our status is quite extraordinary now."
After saying that, Jiang Ning waved her wrist at the guards at the palace gate.
The guards, having heard that Jiang Ning had saved the Emperor Emeritus and received a reward, hurriedly and respectfully approached.
"Princess Ling, what are your orders?"
Jiang Ning said, "Have someone prepare a carriage to take me back to the Jiang family."
She hasn't even cleaned up the mess left in the Jiang family yet.
Moreover, the Jiang family's treasury has long been depleted, and what they are using now is all her mother's dowry!
She has to get it back!
The guards immediately had a carriage brought over.
"Mom is amazing!"
Sitting in the spacious and bright carriage in the palace, Xiao Bao'er was very excited.
Jiang Ning looked at him affectionately, "Mother is very capable. Little Bao will never have to suffer again."
Xiao Bao leaned against Jiang Ning, her expression resolute.
"As long as I'm with my mother, even eating coarse food and wild vegetables won't be bitter!"
His greatest wish was to stay by his mother's side.
Looking at such a sensible and well-behaved child, Jiang Ning felt a lump in her throat. From now on, she would make sure that Xiao Bao'er would be carefree!
The carriage stopped in front of the Jiang residence, and the coachman who had brought Jiang Ning back hesitated before giving a reminder.
"Princess Ling, we have arrived at the Marquis Jiang's residence, but..."
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Ning lifted the curtain and looked at the Marquis's residence, then burst into laughter in exasperation.
The gates of the Marquis Jiang's residence are tightly shut; it seems they don't want her to go back.
