Chapter 498: Beaten
Liu Yunxiang stood in the middle of the hall. Amidst these insults, she straightened her back without bending down a bit.
"Ms. Liu, if we don't respect you by saying 'Princess', it's because your virtue is not worthy of your position!" Mrs. Dingyuan Hou waved her hand, so that others stopped pointing at Liu Yunxiang and scolded her.
"Qing Yue was born in the Chang Bo Mansion, one of the eight aristocratic families. She is both talented and beautiful, gentle and virtuous. In the past few years, His Highness Seventh Prince has been away from the capital. She has abided by her duties and supported the entire palace. Now that His Highness Seventh Prince has returned to the mansion, she thought that all the hardships will be rewarded.
But you showed up unexpectedly and occupied the princess's position, which is no different from a dove occupying a magpie's nest. If you were sensible, you should have entered the palace yourself and asked for permission to return the princess's position to Qing Yue."
"Exactly, Qing Yue is of better background and more virtuous than you, so she is more suitable to be a princess." Others also agreed.
"Mr. Liu." The eldest princess looked at Liu Yunxiang, took a deep breath and said, "What do you think?"
Liu Yunxiang snorted, "What do I think? Of course I take it as a joke."
"You really have no repentance at all!"
"Am I wrong? Why should I change it?"
The eldest princess snorted coldly, "Concubine Yuan was forced to take poison by you..."
"As I said, she put the poison pill into her mouth herself. Maybe she thought it tasted good, so she took a few mouthfuls of it, but the taste probably wasn't right, so she spit it out again. If you say so, the dog would have gone crazy and hit the wall on its own.
Now, why should we blame the dog owner?"
"you!"
"My position as princess was conferred by the emperor. If you really have the ability, you should go into the palace to make trouble. Now you want me to go into the palace and tell the emperor to give the position of princess to Yuan Qingyue. What do you think? Everyone
Are you crazy?"
This sentence made everyone here speechless. Those who do not scold and are thin-skinned may collapse after being scolded for so long, and then be so stupid that they give up the princess's seat. But she, Liu Yunxiang, is not the one.
, they scolded them, no matter what they scolded, she just thought it was a dog barking.
"We don't insist that you give up your position as princess, but we just hope that you will be a virtuous mistress. This will also be good for the Zhenbei Palace." Mrs. Dingyuan Hou said.
Liu Yunxiang laughed, made a fool of himself, and tried to make amends for himself.
"Qingyue, please stretch out your hand and let the ladies see it."
Yuan Qingyue shook her head timidly, "Auntie, let's forget it."
"The eldest princess will make the decision for you, so what are you afraid of?"
Yuan Qingyue glanced at Liu Yunxiang, as if she was very afraid of her, she shrank back, hesitated for a while, and then stretched out her hand. The hand she stretched out was the burned hand, and the back of her hand was swollen like a steamed bun.
, there were a lot of water spirits on it, and some were broken, revealing red flesh oozing with blood, and it looked like it was seriously injured.
It's been two or three days and she hasn't dealt with it yet.
"We said you forced her to take poison, but you don't admit it. Then the injuries on her hands are real. You can't deny it, right?"
Liu Yunxiang chuckled, "She did hurt herself."
"She's not crazy, why did she burn herself?"
"To show you."
"You, you are still making excuses!"
Liu Yunxiang shrugged, "I don't need to quibble with you."
Yuan Qingyue cried and shook her head, "Auntie, the princess must not have done it on purpose. Qingyue's parents died, and she received the care of her aunt, the eldest princess, and all the aunts. She is very grateful. I won't mention it anymore to avoid disturbing the palace.
Restless."
"Qing Yue, you are too weak, that's why you are being bullied like this." Mrs. Dingyuan Hou turned green with anger. She looked at Liu Yunxiang again, "You are the Princess of Zhenbei. Although we are angry, we are still angry.
I really don’t dare to do anything to you.”
The old lady of Dingyuan Marquis asked her maid to bring a cup of hot tea. She brought it to Liu Yunxiang, "I am respected by everyone. I think I am a bit thin. I will personally deliver this cup of tea to you, Princess. Please give me your respect again."
Give it to Qing Yue, think of it as an apology to her, and forget about it. From now on, you can be nice and gentle, so as not to cause trouble to His Highness."
Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes. This old lady of Dingyuanhou is relying on her old age to show off her old age. She is a junior after all, and it is hard not to accept this cup of tea. But if Jing Yuan Qingyue, a main room serves tea to the side room, she will become a joke in the whole city.
Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment, took the tea from Mrs. Dingyuanhou with a smile, but raised his head and drank it himself.
"Since the old lady has apologized to me on behalf of the Yuan family, I will naturally give the old lady some face. Let this be settled."
The old lady stared at Liu Yunxiang with deep eyes, her face turned green, she waved her hand and asked the maid to bring a pot of hot tea.
"You must be thirsty, Princess. I'll pour you a cup of tea myself."
With that said, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou raised the teapot and poured water into the teacup in Liu Yunxiang's hand.
Liu Yunxiang had to accept it even if he didn't want to, but the old man deliberately tilted the spout of the pot and poured the hot tea onto the back of Liu Yunxiang's hand. She dropped the cup in pain and hurriedly hid her hand back.
"Oh, I'm old and my eyesight is dim, but did I burn the princess?"
This old man actually had something to say, "The princess is so proud that I personally poured you tea, but you actually threw the cup away. You are really arrogant and domineering."
Everyone else was laughing, as if they were watching a good show and knew that she would only suffer the consequences of being mute.
Liu Yunxiang looked stern and waved his hand, knocking over the teapot in Mrs. Dingyuanhou's hand. The teapot turned half a circle, the lid fell off, and all the hot tea inside spilled onto the back of Mrs. Dingyuanhou's hand.
"Ah!" she screamed.
The others were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly gathered around. Looking at the old lady's hand, they immediately became red and swollen, and then a lot of phlegm broke out.
This is a whole pot of hot water!
After the eldest princess was shocked, she pointed at Liu Yunxiang and said, "You, you are so brave, you still don't kneel down and kowtow to the old lady to apologize!"
"You are too arrogant and domineering, eldest princess, we cannot let her off lightly today!"
"Even if the palace asks, it's her fault!"
"Exactly, even the King of Zhenbei can't protect her!"
The crowd surrounded Liu Yunxiang, but Liu Yunxiang was alone, and Zijin was blocked at the entrance of the courtyard.
Murong Lingyi stepped forward and took advantage of the chaos to kick Liu Yunxiang in the back of her legs, causing her to stagger and almost kneel on the ground.
"Let's teach her the rules today and see if she dares to be so arrogant in the future!" Murong Lingyi said, reaching out and pinching Liu Yunxiang's arm.
Liu Yunxiang was really angry, so he turned around and scratched Murong Lingyi. Murong Lingyi also took action, and the two of them hit each other.
The others seemed to be trying to stop the fight, but many of them secretly twisted and pinched Liu Yunxiang, and they all surrounded Liu Yunxiang. After a while, Liu Yunxiang's clothes were messed up, his hair was scattered, and every part of his body hurt. He was in such a miserable state.
The eldest princess supported Madam Dingyuanhou and stood aside, watching coldly, while Yuan Qingyue wiped away tears and smiled at the same time.
At this time, a young boy ran over. Seeing this scene, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly ran to the eldest princess and said, "Eldest Princess, the seventh prince has come to the house."
The eldest princess rolled her eyes and said, "Let him wait. I will go see him later."
"But, His Highness Seventh has already broken in, we can't stop him!"
"This seventh child has always been so stupid!"
The eldest princess glanced at Liu Yunxiang, who was under siege, and said, "You guys stop him first."
After all this beating, this grievance must be dealt with. If Zhenbei Palace gains a firm foothold in the future, there will be no such opportunity.
The boy said anxiously: "His Majesty the Seventh Highness held a torch and said that he would burn down our eldest princess's mansion if he did not send the Seventh Princess out intact!"
