Chapter 215 Rong Xin Goes Crazy
Jian Yue stepped forward and bowed: "Ming Yue greets the Imperial Concubine."
Without waiting for Concubine Rong to respond, Jian Yue bowed to the Crown Princess again and said aggrievedly: "Ming Yue was invited by the Crown Princess to attend the tea party, but Princess Xin Yue came and mocked Ming Yue for being a peasant. Ming Yue was so angry that she retorted a few words, but Princess Xin Yue actually took a barbed whip to beat Ming Yue to death. If Ming Yue hadn't run fast, she would have died under her whip. Ming Yue asks Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess to be fair."
The ladies twitched their lips when they heard this.
"You bitch..." Rong Xin pointed at Jian Yue angrily.
"Xin'er!" Concubine Rong scolded Rong Xin. Although she wanted to side with her niece, she couldn't do it too obviously to give others a reason to criticize her.
The Crown Princess took a deep breath, trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and looked at Rong Xin with a cold gaze: "Princess Xinyue, let's not talk about who is right or wrong. This is a tea party, not a martial arts arena. Why did you bring a sharp weapon? Which noble mansion would allow outsiders to carry dangerous weapons? Not to mention the Eastern Palace. Has no one taught Princess Xinyue?"
This sentence was serious, and it directly involved family education. It made Concubine Rong feel ashamed.
Concubine Rong frowned and her face darkened.
Although the Crown Princess was so angry that she said this, she was the Emperor's favorite concubine after all, and she was also the Crown Princess' elder. The Crown Princess's criticism of the Rong family's education was like scolding her in the face.
Concubine Rong's tone was very bad: "Xin'er treated the whip as a toy and took it with her wherever she went. Even when she came to the palace to visit me, she brought it with her. The Crown Princess said it was a sharp weapon, which is serious."
This shows dissatisfaction with the Crown Princess's words.
Jian Yue felt contempt in her heart.
This old woman is clearly being unreasonable.
If you don't follow the rules and bring a sharp weapon to someone else's house to fight and kill, you are showing disrespect to the owner. If it were her, would she be able to endure it? I'm afraid not.
Concubine Rong was determined that even if her niece was in the wrong, she would still side with her niece. Moreover, Princess Mingyue was her son's enemy.
The Crown Princess pursed her lips tightly and said in a deep voice, "Mother, is it true that Xinyue chased Princess Mingyue with a whip?"
So, in front of everyone, I will see how you protect me.
Concubine Rong smiled wryly and said, "Xin'er has a straightforward and impulsive temper and cannot stand provoking others. Maybe someone deliberately provoked her and tricked her into making a mistake. If the Crown Princess takes it seriously, she will have to investigate this matter thoroughly."
Jian Yue Hehe, is this a blatant threat? How shameless.
"Your Highness, please investigate! There are so many eyewitnesses in the hall. I believe that everyone here will not give false testimony against their conscience. Moreover, there are many maids who serve tea and water. They also witnessed what happened." Jian Yue was neither humble nor arrogant, and was not threatened by Concubine Rong at all.
She knew Rong Xin's character and had been prepared to meet Rong Xin before coming to the tea party. Jian Yue just didn't expect Concubine Rong to come to the tea party.
Concubine Rong was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Seeing Jian Yue so confident, Concubine Rong knew it would be difficult to find any evidence against her.
The imperial concubines and young ladies present did not dare to offend the Rong family, but the servants of the Eastern Palace would not have such scruples.
"Aunt, this bitch hit me, and everyone saw it." Rong Xin thought she had caught Jian Yue's handle. She stared at Jian Yue with a vicious look. As long as her aunt ordered her to be taken away, she would let the Rong family's secret guards take her away.
Jian Yue looked calm: "Excuse me, Princess Xinyue, why did I hit you? You used a whip to whip me, a princess appointed by the emperor himself. Are you dissatisfied with the emperor appointing me as a princess, or do you want to slap someone in the face?"
Concubine Rong's face suddenly changed: "Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about? How could Xin'er be dissatisfied with the emperor's bestowal? Princess Mingyue, you are slandering the Rong family."
"Slander?" Jian Yue sneered, "I just came to the capital, and I don't know Princess Xinyue at all. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted at me to kill me. Please explain what you mean, Concubine Rong? Just because the Rong family is so powerful, can they bully anyone they want?"
"Asshole! Do you know what crime it is to slander the Rong family?" Concubine Rong was almost mad with anger.
Not only is this country bumpkin not afraid of her, he also dares to say anything. Where did this idiot come from?
"Oh, I forgot, Rong Yao is also the nephew of the Imperial Concubine, right? He spoke foul language to this princess yesterday, and even brazenly said that it would only take a flick of the finger for his Rong family to kill a peasant princess like me. A bastard dares to be so arrogant and domineering, and he can take the life of a princess at will. As expected, the Rong family can ignore the law, and their power is greater than the imperial power."
Concubine Rong was so angry that she was shaking all over. But she didn't want to lose her composure in front of so many people. The ladies always used roundabout ways to tease each other, but who would have thought that they would meet such a shameless person who played it straight.
No wonder some people say that they are willing to sacrifice their lives to bring down the emperor. Once people don’t care about their hypocritical face, their lethality can be maximized.
"Bitch! How dare you slander the imperial concubine's family..."
"Oh? When Rong Yao made his announcement yesterday, many people who were passing by heard it. The guests in the Wen Family Restaurant also heard it. I guess Rong Yao's bold words must have spread throughout the city, right?"
Concubine Rong’s eyes went dark.
This troublesome thing dares to say anything. Isn't this bringing disaster to the Rong family?
Concubine Rong felt a strong sense of powerlessness. None of her nephews and nieces were successful. If it weren't for her and her old father, the family would have fallen into decline long ago.
"Your Majesty, you are not feeling well. Do you want to go back and rest for a while?" Rong Guifei's confidant, Nanny Yu, came out to rescue her at the right time.
She had finally figured out that Princess Mingyue was a stubborn person. Arguing with her would only bring shame upon herself. If she wanted to deal with her, it would be better to do it secretly.
Concubine Rong understood immediately, holding her forehead and said, "I have a headache, Xin'er, help me go back and rest!"
Rong Xin's expression suddenly changed, and she screamed: "Headache? You, the emperor's favorite concubine, can't beat a peasant, and you want to pretend to be sick and escape. Aren't you ashamed?"
As soon as these words came out, the room was filled with silence.
The imperial concubine and the young ladies looked at Rong Xin as if they had seen a ghost.
Is Rong Xin possessed by a fierce ghost?
Concubine Rong opened her red lips slightly, too shocked to react: "You..."
"What are you talking about? You can't even beat a poor guy, you loser!" Rong Xin pushed Concubine Rong fiercely. Concubine Rong was still in shock and fell backwards without any preparation.
Nanny Yu and the personal maid Xue'er were quicker than they thought and subconsciously went to help.
pat!
Concubine Rong did not fall down, but the hairpin on her head flew out and fell to the ground and broke.
Concubine Rong was still in shock and pointed at Rong Xin: "You, you evil creature!"
Snapped!
Rong Xin was scolded and became furious, so he whipped Concubine Rong.
Ah!
Xue'er used her body to block Concubine Rong...
