Upon hearing Rong Ning's words, the Prime Minister's wife quickly bowed and replied, "Your Highness is too kind. You are making me feel unworthy of such compliments!"
At this moment, what can those present say?
From the moment the emperor forcibly placed the princess into the Prime Minister's residence, the Prime Minister's wife knew that her days ahead would be filled with unease.
Unexpectedly, the second wife was so thoughtless that she actually went up to provoke the princess, making her unhappy.
Thinking of this, the Prime Minister's wife couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Rong Ning, however, paid no attention to the strange atmosphere and kept muttering to herself, occasionally throwing out a few strange questions that left everyone scratching their heads.
Faced with this situation, the Prime Minister's wife, though feeling utterly helpless, could only force herself to stay focused and deal with it seriously.
Fortunately, she was worldly-wise and could answer every question Rong Ning posed perfectly, without any flaws.
After chatting for a long time, Rong Ning got bored.
As the matriarch of a large clan, she had seen more intricacies than Rong Ning had ever tasted salt, and could deftly deflect even the most difficult questions.
That's pointless!
Thinking this, his gaze fell on Xie Xiyue, who had been waiting by his side.
Her mother was punished by the Prime Minister's wife, but she was still allowed to stay and serve him, which shows that the girl was very popular with the Prime Minister's wife.
Finding nothing interesting with the Prime Minister's wife, Rong Ning turned her attention to her, her eyes sweeping over her before she slowly said, "Miss Xiyue, I don't need you to accompany me. Do you think that's unfair?"
Xie Xiyue, caught off guard by being called out, quickly replied, "Your Highness, Your Highness is of the highest rank and status. Only someone of your status, like my elder sister, would be assigned to accompany you. I dare not have any other thoughts."
The Prime Minister's wife breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Your Highness, both Xizhu and Xiyue are the finest girls in the manor. If Your Highness likes them, they can accompany you. But if Your Highness does not, there is nothing we can do!"
Wow... that's a pretty tough statement!
It seems that Rong Ning has been causing trouble all along, bringing out the temper of the Prime Minister's wife.
Rong Ning wanted to see if the Prime Minister's wife would explode on the spot if she stirred things up again. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Prime Minister's wife misunderstands. In fact, I do not dislike Miss Xiyue, but I dislike Miss Xiyue's mother."
Moreover, I also thought that the Prime Minister's Mansion only allowed Young Master Xie and Xizhu to contact me, and dared not provoke Miss Xiyue again.
"I am also afraid of tarnishing Miss Xiyue's reputation."
This statement is inexplicable and nonsensical.
But from the time she entered the manor yesterday until now, she has only had real contact with these two people. Ignoring the fact that Rong Ning herself likes peace and quiet, it is clear that the Prime Minister's manor is deliberately distancing itself from her for the sake of the reputation of the women in the manor.
This is blatantly unreasonable.
Rong Ning knew…
The Prime Minister's wife also knew... she knew this princess was difficult to deal with, but she never expected that she would start causing trouble on the second day after entering the mansion.
