Chapter 407: Anger
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When they arrived at the Empress’s Palace, most of the family members had already left, leaving only a few madams to accompany the Empress. One of them was Princess Yanhe.
When Jian Qingqing saw that Princess Yanhe was not feeling guilty at all, she walked over without turning her eyes away and paid her respects to the Empress.
The Empress laughed. “I thought you were going to come to the banquet. I’ve already prepared a seat for you. Who knew that the Emperor would take it? ‘
Jian Qingqing smiled mischievously. “That’s a game between you and the Emperor, Your Majesty. You can’t blame me.”
The Empress looked at her jokingly and said, “How would I dare to blame you?
You’re Her Majesty’s favorite.”
Before Jian Qingqing could speak, Princess Yanhe’s unhappy voice sounded, “Empress, you are the Matriarch of the world, so you can blame anyone you want! She’s just a wild girl from the countryside, it’s her fortune to be liked by Your Ladyship, so how could she dare to be proud in front of you?
She had long disliked Jian Qingqing. After she had lost a lot of face and went back, she remembered how Ming Zhiyan had protected that little b*tch. She was furious and ordered people to check her identity. She did not expect that she was the Princess with a different surname who had been personally conferred by the Emperor.
This time, she was even angrier. Her heart was filled with anger from being played, and she hated Jian Qingqing even more.
However, she had never had the chance to see Jian Qingqing, so she could only
hold this grudge in her heart, and she could not take revenge.
Now, as soon as she saw Jian Qingqing, the humiliating experience immediately came to her mind, causing her to curse without thinking.
In her heart, she was disdainful of Jian Qingqing. She did not know where this country girl came from. She was just lucky to be fancied by the Emperor, but she was still a wild girl after all. Just because she was given the title of a Princess, she did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. Was she worthy of being on the same level as her?
So she did not care about the circumstances. If she rashly spoke in front of the Empress, she refused to believe that the Empress would punish her, the blood Princess of Wei, for the sake of a fake Princess.
As soon as she said this, the whole place was silent for a moment. Even the smile on the Empress’s face faded a little. however, she still was not aware of it and sat there with an arrogant face.
Jian Qingqing did not know what to say. It seemed that her father must have contributed to the inkstone’s current red color.
“Since it’s already so late, Princess Yanhe should go back,” the Empress said coldly. “I won’t keep you any longer.”
Immediately, Princess Yanhe looked at her in disbelief and asked, “Empress, you’re scolding me for a wild girl?!”
She was so angry that she forgot to pretend and directly questioned her rudely.
The Empress’s face turned completely cold as she said, “Princess Yanhe, I’m telling you, Princess Ding’an is not some wild girl. She is the Princess personally conferred by His Majesty! You are so dissatisfied with Princess Ding’an, is it because you are also dissatisfied with His Majesty?”
These words were much more serious. Princess Yanhe’s angry voice stopped abruptly. She stood in a daze on the spot and muttered, “Yanhe wouldn’t dare.”
She had shamelessly stayed here today just to wait for the Emperor to take a look at her. She wanted to regain her position in the Emperor’s heart. If she offended the Emperor like this, what would she do in the future?
At this time, her heart was shrouded in a huge panic, and she could not help but regret going against Jian Qingqing just now.
It’s all this little b*tch’s fault! She glared at Jian Qingqing fiercely.
Hmph! the Empress snorted. “If that’s the case, you can go back now. You don’t have to come to the palace anymore..”
