Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
With Yu Yunxi’s order, no matter how unwilling Qian Qing was, Qian Qing could only follow Luo Xiuran.
After leaving Ning Courtyard, Yu Yunxi ran into Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiaoxiao, who was all dressed up, held Madam Shang’s hand affectionately. The mother and daughter were clearly in a good mood, certain that something had happened to Yu Yunxi last night. Alas, when they looked up, they saw a smiling face.
“Ah, ghost!” Yu Xiaoxiao screamed, stumbling a few steps back. She lost her balance and fell heavily to the ground. She pulled Madam Shang with her as she fell, and as a result, Madam Shang fell as well.
“Ouch!” Madam Shang cried out in pain.
The mother and daughter looked extremely miserable and disheveled at this moment. The hairpins on their heads were knocked askew when they fell, causing their hair to be messy. Their clothes were also wrinkled.
Upon seeing this, the maidservants behind the duo hurried over and quickly helped them up.
Yu Yunxi slowly walked over and looked down at them as she said lightly,
“Aunt, Sister Xiaoxiao, why are you so excited to see me? You even performed like a monkey for me.”
Yu Xiaoxiao and Madam Shang’s faces flushed red with anger. However, they were more flustered than angry at this moment.
‘In the past, the servants either went crazy or took their lives. Why is Yu Yunxi completely fine? What kind of monster is she?’
Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, “Oh, that’s right. Sister Xiaoxiao, why did you scream, ‘Ghost’, earlier? Did you think I was a ghost? Or did you do too many wicked things so you’re afraid of being haunted by the people you harmed?”
Madam Shang regained her composure at this moment. She quickly held Yu Xiaoxiao’s hand and pretended to be calm as she said, “It’s nothing. Yunxi, you must have heard wrongly.”
“Really? Did I hear wrongly?”
Yu Yunxi chuckled. Her clear eyes seemed to be able to see through people’s thoughts, making Madam Shang feel wary.
‘Why is this little b*tch harder to deal with than Changning back then?’
“I heard that the Empress Dowager and the Empress have already arrived at the city gates. Aunt, Sister, I’m leaving first, ” Yu Yunxi said lightly before she turned away.
Yu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth as she looked at Yu Yunxi’s back. She grabbed Madam Shang’s arm and said indignantly, “Mother, didn’t you say that something would definitely happen to this b*tch last night? Why is she fine? In fact, she looks even better than before!”
One of the things Yu Xiaoxiao hated most about Yu Yunxi was Yu Yunxi’s appearance. Yu Yunxi was clearly a little older than her, but Yu Yunxi’s face was delicate. Even without makeup, Yu Yunxi looked beautiful.
“What kind of monster is she? Perhaps the ghost in her courtyard has gotten tired so it didn’t cause any trouble last night? Forget it, I’ll ignore this matter for the time being. Let’s go to the Temple of Eternal Peace first to pray for blessings. There’ll be many little sl*ts present today. We have to keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t seduce the Crown Prince,” Madam Shang said solemnly.
Yu Xiaoxiao instantly sobered up when she heard these words.
‘That’s right. The Crown Prince is more important. Those sl*ts always use this kind of event to seduce the Crown Prince! I can’t allow them to succeed!’ Yu Xiaoxiao held her mother’s hand and said urgently, “Mother, let’s go!”
At this moment, three figures walked over. They were Kang Qingping, Kang Qingxin, and Kang Qingrui. All of them looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and Madam Shang timidly at this moment.
After a brief moment, Kang Qingping whispered, “Second Aunt, Grandmother wants the three of us to follow you and Sister Xiaoxiao.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaoxiao said shrilly, “What? The three of you village girls want to follow us to the Temple of Eternal Peace? Who do you think you
Based on Yu Xiaoxiao’s attitude, it was not surprising that she disliked and looked down on the three Kang sisters.
‘Who do they think they are? They came from the countryside, and they’re just orphans, but they dare to address me as ‘Sister’?’
Kang Qingping lowered her head, looking aggrieved as she said, “But Grandmother told us to follow you.”
“Oh, so you want to follow us just because Grandmother told you to follow us?
If Grandmother wants you to die, will you die?” Yu Xiaoxiao asked aggressively. It was as though she was venting her anger toward Yu Yunxi on them.
Seeing that Yu Xiaoxiao was about to say something even more unpleasant,
Madam Shang stopped Yu Xiaoxiao and said unhurriedly, “That’s enough, Xiaoxiao. Since your grandmother wants them to follow us, then let them follow us. After all, with the three of them, you’ll have an additional three servants to serve you, right?”
Needless to say, Madam Shang also looked down on the three Kang sisters. However, she still had to take Old Madam Zhou into consideration. After all, her husband was foolishly filial to Old Madam Zhou. If she did not bring the three women to the Temple of Eternal Peace today, it would be troublesome if Old Madam Zhou complained to her husband.
‘Since these b*tches want to follow us, I’ll let them follow us as maids. It’s a good opportunity to show them their place and let them know the difference between our statuses. They should know not to covet things that don’t belong to them!’
Meanwhile, Yu Xiaoxiao felt that her mother had a point so she no longer rejected the three Kang sisters. She said arrogantly, “What are you standing there for? Follow me.
The three Kang sisters quickly followed behind the mother and daughter.
Kang Qingxin and Kang Qingrui looked at how beautiful Yu Xiaoxiao’s clothes were and thought about how she humiliated them earlier. They were naturally extremely angry and discussed among themselves in low voices.
“Why is she so arrogant? If it weren’t for the fact that her uncle is the King of Zhenbei, would she be able to become a Commandery Princess?”
“That’s right. If our mother was a man, we can also become a Commandery Princess!”
Kang Qingxin and Kang Qingrui were clearly resentful and jealous.
At this moment, Kang Qingping turned around and said reproachfully in a low voice, “That’s enough. Stop talking nonsense and follow them.”
“Yes, Sister.”
Kang Qingrui and Kang Qingxin were afraid of their eldest sister. Upon hearing her words, they quickly lowered their heads.
While Kang Qingrui and Kang Qingxin walked ahead, Kang Qingping suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the magnificent King of Zhenbei’s Residence for a moment. Her eyes glinted with a hint of viciousness as she muttered under her breath, “That’s right. Even a fool like Yu Xiaoxiao can become the Crown Prince’s side consort. Why can’t I? I’ve learned many things since I was young. Why should I marry someone from an unknown family?” When Yu Xiaoxiao arrived outside of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence, she learned that Yu Yunxi and Yu Shuangshuang had already set off. Not only that, but she also learned that the Eastern Palace had sent a carriage over to pick Yu Yunxi up. However, after Yu Yunxi rejected it, the carriage from the Eastern Palace left.
Yu Xiaoxiao stomped her feet angrily, and her expression was extremely hideous as she said, “I’m clearly the Crown Prince’s side consort! I haven’t even arrived yet, how dare they leave?! Are the servants from the Eastern Palace blind?”
