Chapter 114 Slapping the Unfilial Daughter
Princess Ruyang was so angry when she heard this that she almost vomited blood.
She never imagined that this daughter, whom she had held in the palm of her hand and doted on since childhood, would not care about her pain at all when she was most sad and desperate.
Instead of standing up to protect her, he kept saying that he was going against her.
He even accused her of wrongdoing with a look of resentment on his face.
As if she was the one who did something wrong.
In a rage, Princess Ruyang suddenly raised her arm and pretended to slap Princess Rong'an!
Seeing this, Princess Rong'an subconsciously took half a step back.
Pause...
Seeing that Princess Ruyang's hand stopped in mid-air, he knew that she was reluctant to hit him.
He then stretched his neck and stretched his head forward.
Strongly object!
"If you want to hit me, just beat me to death! Anyway, I can't agree to your divorce from my father.
How can I, a princess, have a mother who is an abandoned woman?
This is absolutely ridiculous!"
Before he finished speaking.
Jiang Wanning decisively slapped the disobedient and unfilial girl hard on the face!
“I think you’re ridiculous!
As expected, the little ungrateful girl is the offspring of an ungrateful old man. Both the father and the daughter are bad people with rotten hearts and roots. For their own selfish reasons, they even spoke ill of their mother and scolded her mother in public. What a filial daughter!
Fortunately, the princess dotes on you and loves you, and protects you like a treasure. This is how you repay her for giving birth to you.
Humph, giving birth to a rebellious girl like you is really worse than giving birth to a barbecued pork!"
In an instant, Princess Rong'an felt a sharp pain in her cheek, and her entire face was almost twisted to the side, with even a strand of hair on her head scattered.
She was certain that her mother would not take action, so she came so close.
Who would have thought that the bitch Jiang would be so violent?
When she came to her senses, she turned around and looked at Jiang Wanning with annoyance.
"This is a matter of our palace, what does it have to do with you?! My mother couldn't bear to hit me, and you actually dared to hit me in front of His Majesty?!
Your Majesty, this evil woman's behavior clearly shows that she does not take you seriously!
You must punish her severely!"
Jiang Wanning sneered, how could he let her have any chance to talk nonsense?
Before she could finish her words, he retorted.
"What are you yelling about? Everyone knows that His Majesty governs the world with loyalty and filial piety, and that loyalty and filial piety are what he values most. As a child, you are disrespecting your mother in public!
This lady is teaching you a lesson in accordance with God's will. Why don't you kneel down and admit your mistake?!"
"you……"
Princess Rong'an thought she was sharp-tongued, but she had never won an argument with Jiang.
She couldn't say anything back and her face turned pale with anger.
He could only turn to Princess Ruyang and said angrily.
"Mother, listen to what she said...Are you just going to let her bully me like this?"
Princess Ruyang turned sideways, her heart already sank.
If it were in the past, if she saw her daughter being beaten, she would definitely not be able to swallow this anger and would rush up to fight to the death.
But now, she just felt discouraged.
Faced with his daughter's crying, he didn't feel as distressed as before. He even felt that Jiang's slap was very satisfying!
She only hated herself for not being hard enough and not being able to be so cruel.
"Madam Hou is right. I spoiled you all the time. That's why you're so disrespectful and don't know the difference between respect and inferiority!"
Princess Rong'an was stunned again.
This was probably the first time he saw his mother not protecting him, but instead speaking for Jiang, the person she hated the most. He suddenly felt extremely wronged.
"Mother, did you ask that Jiang to cast a spell on you? Why are you still arguing for her?
Aren't you hurting the child's feelings by saying this?
Didn't you teach me that as a family we should be of one mind and work together to face the outside world?"
Princess Ruyang laughed at herself and sighed sadly.
"Yes, a family should be united in their purpose, but are you and I united? If I must divorce your father, are you willing to come with me?!"
"this……"
Princess Rong'an bit her lower lip lightly, looking embarrassed.
When Prince Ruyang heard her keep saying "divorce", he felt ashamed and could not help but snort coldly.
"If you leave with her, I will just pretend that I don't have a daughter like you, and there will no longer be a Princess Rong'an in the Ruyang Palace!"
Upon hearing this, Princess Rong'an's face suddenly changed and she hurriedly grabbed Prince Ruyang's arm.
He shook his head repeatedly and pleaded.
"Father, it's Mother who's gone mad. I've never thought of being separated from you... Please don't abandon me!"
Seeing her reaction like this, Princess Ruyang's face turned even paler.
Suddenly I understood why the Marquis' wife had cut off all ties with those three rebellious sons.
Unfilial children have more than just a lack of conscience.
It's just stupid.
I can’t even fish it out!
Prince Ruyang could say such words to threaten her, which obviously showed that he did not take her as his daughter seriously.
But she still begged this cold-blooded father, thinking that she would gain something good if she stayed with him.
"Ling'er, you are no longer the prince's only daughter. If you had a conflict with your brothers and sisters, who would the prince protect? Even so, would you still stay in the palace and refuse to leave?"
Princess Rong'an thought she was just trying to convince herself and refused to listen to a word she said.
He said unhappily.
"That's better than following you... If I stay in the palace, I'm at least still a princess. If I go with you, I'll be nothing!"
“Bang!”
Princess Ruyang finally gave up completely and raised her hand to give her the last slap of maternal love!
"Since that's the case, I hope you won't regret it in the future!"
Princess Rong'an covered her cheeks with tears in her eyes.
I feel more and more that she is hopeless.
"Mother, if you insist on breaking up with Father, I'm afraid you'll be the one who regrets it in the future... You'll be the one!"
With his daughter's support, Prince Ruyang felt much more proud.
Then he sneered.
"I am a prince, how can I divorce you? If this gets out, where will the face of my royal family be? Humph, if you really want to leave, I won't stop you.
However, for this king... there is no divorce, only divorce!"
Jiang Wanning didn't like to hear this.
Although she didn't have a good impression of Princess Ruyang, Prince Ruyang's arrogant face was obviously even more disgusting.
She sneered and retorted.
"When you deceived the princess and had affairs outside, didn't you ever imagine this would happen? Back then, you didn't care about the royal family's reputation, and now you're using this to make a fuss... I guess the royal family's reputation is just a cover for you."
The emperor was already troubled by the quarrels between the couple.
Hearing this, his face darkened again and he couldn't help but interrupt.
"Madam Hou, that's a bit harsh."
Jiang Wanning immediately turned around with a nagging expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, honest advice is unpleasant to the ear! I am saying this for your own good..."
emperor:"……"
I thank you.
Naturally, he also felt that Prince Ruyang was a piece of shit.
He took advantage of everything, only to be left with a mess for me to clean up.
Day after day, I can’t even finish reviewing all the memorials, and I still have to take care of these trivial matters. It’s so annoying.
Seeing that the emperor refused to give in, Princess Ruyang's eyes were filled with tears and she was filled with grief and anger!
She was once the most glorious among all the ladies in the capital, and she always held her chin high wherever she went.
If I were divorced from the palace now, I would probably be looked down upon and despised by others.
It was her fault, so she accepted it.
But it was clearly not her fault, but she was asked to take the blame. How could she swallow this?
She looked up at the emperor and said angrily.
"I ask nothing but Your Majesty to leave me with dignity. Otherwise, I would rather die in the palace than go out and be humiliated!"
The emperor's eyes were slightly cold, but he didn't buy it.
"You are threatening me with death?"
The atmosphere seems wrong.
Jiang Wanning quickly tugged at Princess Ruyang's sleeve and reminded her.
"Don't be impulsive, learn from my Zhizhi..."
Seriously, you can’t even copy homework.
This dog emperor is not a good person to begin with, so why would he care about her life or death?
If she was really killed in the palace, there would be no evidence... Her family members were fooled by Prince Ruyang with just a few words and still worked for him.
It’s guaranteed to be a loss!
Princess Ruyang then turned around and said immediately.
"I dare not... I simply do not wish to bear the unwarranted accusation. I hope Your Majesty will have mercy. If Your Majesty can grant me a divorce, I will offer my entire dowry as a token of gratitude!"
The emperor's eyes lit up slightly.
Oh no...
The dowry of Princess Ruyang was famously generous in those days, and Prince Ruyang was in a high position, so the number of people who came to curry favor with him would only increase over the years.
I think the property in the dowry has made her very rich now.
Not to mention anything else, just looking at the way Princess Ruyang and Princess Rong'an are dressed, you can tell that they are not just rich.
Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but feel restless.
Why do I feel like... there's suddenly a good way to make a fortune?
Although this method can no longer be described as unconventional, it is even a bit weird.
But you can’t help it, it makes money quickly!
Seeing that the emperor was a little hesitant, but refused to agree for the sake of face, Jiang Wanning immediately took out his trump card of bargaining.
He persuaded Princess Ruyang.
"Oh, there's no need for that. The price is too high...
In fact, it’s no big deal if we don’t get a divorce.
Even if the prince has a new love, your mountain of dowry will be enough to provide you with food and clothing for the rest of your life."
“Ahem!”
The emperor coughed twice, signaling her not to meddle in other people's business.
Princess Ruyang said immediately.
"My mind is made up. Madam Hou, you don't need to persuade me anymore... Your Majesty, please agree to my request!"
After saying this, he leaned over and bowed deeply to the emperor.
How could the emperor let the duck he had caught fly away, so he waved his hand reluctantly.
Act impatient.
"Alright, alright...it's become such a mess, I won't force you to stay. I'll allow you to divorce!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, alas—"
King Ruyang slapped his thigh, but it was too late to stop him.
After all, the emperor's words are golden, and now that he has spoken, he will not take them back.
He had no choice but to give up.
Seeing the emperor's eyebrows slightly raised, as if he had gotten a bargain, Jiang Wanning couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Just be greedy, try harder and grab more!
Anyway, in the end it all belongs to Qingqing.
…
Three days later.
Princess Ruyang counted her dowry and sold her private property overnight, completing the divorce at the speed of light. Prince Ruyang was so angry that he cursed for a long time at the door of his mansion.
Upon hearing the news, Song Zhizhi sat at the table and spat out a mouthful of melon seed shells.
He spat.
"Bah! He still has the nerve to scold me. He was happier than anyone else when he was holding his son, but now he's acting like a victim."
Jiang Wanning curled his lips and sneered.
"Naturally, he doesn't feel he's done anything wrong. He only resents his wife for her shortsightedness and lack of tolerance... But he's probably acting this way to impress His Majesty, so he can let down his guard."
Song Zhizhi put down the fruit plate in her hand and lowered her voice.
"Mother said...he's going to take action?"
Jiang Wanning took a dried longan from her fruit bowl and crushed it with a snap.
"Your Majesty is naturally suspicious. Now that you've noticed his rebellious intentions, you'll naturally try every possible means to weaken his power... The longer we delay, the more unfavorable the situation will become. Prince Ruyang has been planning this for so many years, how can he be willing to give up? He must take a risk.
It's just right, we can add some fuel to the fire and make it burn brighter!"
Song Zhizhi thought of Bai Wushuang who had been locked up in the backyard.
The fire that Prince Ruyang started burned her body and half of her face, but she saved her life.
Now I can get out of bed and walk around.
She didn't understand why her mother wanted to keep Bai Wushuang in the mansion.
It was not until the scandal of Prince Ruyang spread that her mother took Bai Wushuang out and let her witness with her own eyes the scene of Prince Ruyang welcoming Yao Niang and several children into the palace. She was so angry that she almost broke the window frame of the carriage.
After coming back, Bai Wushuang said nothing.
Taking a blueprint given by his mother, he left the Marquis' Mansion at night.
By now, he must have arrived at the palace.
…
Prince Ruyang's Palace.
Bai Wushuang fainted outside the side door and was hurriedly carried into the mansion.
When she woke up, Prince Ruyang was pacing back and forth in the room anxiously. When he heard her cough, he immediately hurried forward.
"Shuang'er, you're awake..."
Bai Wushuang immediately turned her head, covered her burned cheek, and said tremblingly.
"Your Highness...don't come over here! Don't look at my face...I must be extremely ugly now..."
Seeing her like this, Prince Ruyang's eyes narrowed slightly.
He changed his tone to a softer one and held her in his arms.
"I'm sorry for you. That day...Eunuch Yang was present, and Jiang was so aggressive. I had no choice but to do what I wanted. Please don't blame me."
Bai Wushuang shook her head slightly, looking like a lovesick person.
"I don't blame the prince, it's just a pity that the child is gone..."
Prince Ruyang immediately hugged her tighter.
The tone was distressing.
"Don't think too much. As long as you take good care of yourself, we will have another child. I promised you, and that will never change."
"But I'm so ugly now, won't the prince dislike me?"
"How could that be? Shuang'er will always be the most beautiful in my heart..."
Bai Wushuang used to feel happy when she heard these sweet words, but now she just wants to vomit.
But she had to hold it in.
After saying this, Prince Ruyang coaxed her for a long time.
Then he tried to explore.
"The concierge asked earlier, 'Do you have anything to give to the king?'"
Bai Wushuang went with the flow, leaned in his arms, and replied weakly.
"It's the defense map of the capital you requested, Your Highness. I didn't dare to carry it with me, so I found a place to hide it.
Your Majesty, you must be careful of Marquis Pingyang.
Jiang's ghost talk that day made him suspicious of you.
He asked someone to heal me just to get information from me.
In order to gain his trust, I pretended to be accommodating and hated you to the core, and told him that you were planning a rebellion.
Marquis Pingyang planned to take advantage of your trick and took out a fake defense map, wanting to use me to give it to you, so as to trick you into sending troops and capture you in one fell swoop!
However, he probably didn't expect that I also stole the real defense map.
Hidden in..."
…
Marquis' Mansion.
After hearing Jiang Wanning's plan, Lu Yao was confused. For the first time, he felt that his brain was not enough.
"So, which side is Bai Wushuang on now?"
Chen Yan quickly understood what was going on.
I deeply believe that my wife and I are in perfect sync and understand each other immediately.
"What Madam asked Bai Wushuang to deliver was, of course, the real defense map.
In this way, even if Prince Ruyang had some doubts about her, as long as he sent someone to check and verify the truth, most of his concerns would be dispelled.
Moreover, anyone who gets a hold of such a deployment map would be unable to remain silent."
As he spoke, Shen Yan turned to look at Jiang Wanning and asked for credit.
"Ma'am, what do you think... of my analysis?"
Jiang Wanning nodded.
"Not bad, you got the point."
Chen Yan: Oh my, I’m so happy to be praised by my wife.
On the edge.
Lu Yao still felt uneasy, with an expression as if he was facing a great enemy.
"But, isn't this too risky? What if Prince Ruyang doesn't fall for it..."
Jiang Wanning waved his hand and soothed.
"It's okay. Your Majesty is the target that Prince Ruyang wants to shoot. The worst that can happen is that the Marquis won't be able to save him in time, and he will die early... It won't have much of an impact on us."
Lu Yao: That seems to be the case.
Now I feel relieved!
