Li's face turned dark instantly. What kind of thing is Tang Miaoxin? Can it be compared with her daughter?
She said in a sinister tone: "Miaoxin is also my daughter. It would be great to marry King Qin as his concubine!"
"However, her child has an awkward temperament and is not willing to get close to others. The national master gave her instructions and said that she is a lone star of evil."
"I asked her to have a tutor in Zhuangzi before, but she was very lazy and unwilling to learn."
"Otherwise, it wouldn't be the case. She just got married to the King of Qin and was ordered by the Emperor to study in the Imperial College."
All she said was that Tang Miaoxin was an unlearned vase. Apart from that face, she had nothing to do with anything she wanted.
The looks around Tang Miaoxin changed subtly, with some showing sympathy and more disdain.
Some people even took a few steps back when they heard that she was the evil star in the sky, for fear of being exposed to her evil spirit.
The wife who stirred up trouble pursed her lips and smiled: "So, although Mrs. Wanhu will give birth to daughters, all of them will be beautiful."
"But not all of her daughters are amazingly talented. There are also some who are unlearned and unskilled like Princess Qin."
There were chuckles all around, and Li's face became even more ugly.
She said to Tang Miaoxin in a cold voice: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Isn't it embarrassing enough?"
Tang Miaoxin asked the wife who stirred up trouble: "May I ask, madam, what is the crime for contempt of the royal family?"
The wife who started the trouble knew before that Tang Miaoxin was not a fuel-efficient lamp, but she felt that she must not have much knowledge since she grew up in a village.
She just wanted to instigate Tang Miaoxin to fight with Li Shi so that she could watch the joke.
It would be best to squeeze out Tangjiangxian's internal quota of crown princess and let her daughter marry Ning Zhiyuan.
At this time, Tang Miaoxin asked this question, and she felt extremely proud. As expected, Tang Miaoxin didn't even know how to punish someone for defying the royal family.
She chuckled softly: "Despising the royal family depends on the situation. The lightest one will be slapped ten times."
After she finished speaking, she waited for Tang Miaoxin to call someone to deal with Li. As long as Tang Miaoxin took action, Li would have made a big mistake today.
At the same time, rumors will spread throughout the capital that the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households is not strict in running the family, and then Tangjiangxian will never think of marrying Ning Zhiyuan.
Li's expression changed. That little bitch Tang Miaoxin wouldn't do anything to her, would she?
As expected, Tang Miaoxin summoned a chamberlain, and the wife who started the trouble was so proud that Li's hands clenched into fists.
Unexpectedly, Tang Miaoxin said to the chamberlain: "This lady just said that I am ignorant and despise the royal family. Pull me down and slap me twenty times!"
Mrs. Li and the wife who started the trouble were both stunned for a moment.
Mrs. Li immediately came to her senses and said triumphantly: "We all heard just now that Mrs. Zhang said that Princess Qin is ignorant and incompetent!"
The chamberlain was a little embarrassed. Ning Guzhou's position in the palace was a bit awkward. As his princess, Tang Miaoxin couldn't control him.
But contempt for the royal family is not a trivial matter. This matter must be pursued. He winked at a palace maid next to him.
The palace maid understood and went to report to the queen.
Mrs. Zhang did not expect that Tang Miaoxin was not instigated by her to beat Li, but wanted to beat her. She immediately stopped: "It was Mrs. Wanhu Hou who first said that Princess Qin was uneducated and unskilled!"
Li sneered: "I just said that Princess Qin doesn't like to study, but I didn't say that she is uneducated and has no skills!"
By this time, Mrs. Li finally understood one thing. No matter how much she looked down on Tang Miaoxin, she was still a serious princess.
On this occasion, if Tang Miaoxin really made a mistake, he would be punished!
Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she gave Tang Miaoxin a hateful look. Mrs. Li had never regarded her as her daughter, but she actually defended Mr. Li!
You deserve to be bullied by Mr. Li!
She gritted her teeth and said, "Princess Qin doesn't like to study. Doesn't that mean she is ignorant and incompetent?"
"I just told the truth. It's not contempt of the royal family. You can't punish me!"
Tang Miaoxin smiled: "According to your point of view, as long as I can prove that I am not ignorant, you will despise the royal family?"
Mrs. Zhang frowned and said, "That's right! Unless you can prove that you have real talent and learning, you can't punish me!"
Mrs. Li frowned and said to Tang Miaoxin in a commanding tone: "Don't embarrass yourself and spare her this time!"
She felt that Tang Miaoxin did not dare to punish her just now. It must be that Tang Miaoxin knew that her backer was Wanhu Houfu, and was showing his favor to her.
Since Tang Miaoxin showed her kindness, he had to listen to her in everything.
Tang Miaoxin said quietly: "Let her go? Do you want to confirm my reputation of being ignorant and incompetent?"
Li sneered: "It's a fact that you don't like studying, and it's a fact that you grew up in Zhuangzi. There's nothing to hide."
"You are not Jiang Xian. If you are not knowledgeable, you don't have to pretend to be fat. No one will laugh at you."
Mrs. Zhang stood aside and said, "That's right, do you still dare to compete with Tangjiang Xian? As far as I know, you don't seem to be able to read a single frame of Chinese characters, right?"
"It's okay if you don't admit it because you are uneducated, but you still want to save face. Why bother if you lose face to yourself?"
A lady beside her also echoed: "That's right, who doesn't know that you grew up in Zhuangzi, and no one taught you at all?"
"She probably thinks that because she is good-looking, everyone in the world must give in to her!"
"This is a flower viewing banquet hosted by the Queen to choose a concubine for the Crown Prince. Why is she here to join in the fun and make a splash?"
"Let's go quickly, don't embarrass yourself here!"
Tang Miaoxin's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a faint coldness in her bright peach blossom eyes.
She really just wants to be a low-key person, but there are always people forcing her to be high-profile.
She looked at Mrs. Li and said: "I was thrown into the village by my wife as soon as I was born. In the past ten years, you have never seen me. How do you know that I don't like to study?"
Mrs. Li was stunned by the question. She really didn't know much about Tang Miaoxin.
Besides being disgusted with Tang Miaoxin, how could she bother to understand her?
The queen's voice came: "I have heard before that Wanhu Houfu is very good at teaching his daughters."
"Why don't we let Miao Xin and Jiang Xian compete to see who is better?"
When the Queen spoke, no one dared to refute.
Tang Miaoxin cursed in her heart, the Queen, this old witch, is really so scheming!
It was precisely because the queen didn't like Tangjiang Xian that she planned for Emperor Cheng Ming to order the legitimate daughter of Wanhu Houfu to be married to Ning Guzhou.
It was made clear that he did not want Tangjiangxian to become the crown princess.
But Tang Jiangxian didn't know how to make Ning Zhiyuan make a promise, and that's why the matter of choosing a concubine came about.
Now let her compete with Tang Jiangxian in talent competition. No matter who wins, it will be beneficial to the queen.
Tangjiangxian wins, and Tang Miaoxin will probably have to be known as a waste and a straw bag from now on, and will be known as the incompetent Princess Qin.
If Tang Miaoxin wins, Tangjiangxian, the most talented woman in the capital, will lose her reputation and probably won't want to be a crown princess anymore.
