Chapter 681: Fish, Shrimp, Shrimp, Shrimp
The royal study was in an uproar, but Xiao Baoxin, who had been brought to the next room by the Emperor, had heard most of it.
It was just that the more they argued, the fiercer they became. One by one, they fought for words, making it impossible for people to hear the numbers.
“Are you hungry? Drink more water?”
“Are you scared? Is your stomach okay?”
Lu Dalang and Xi Silang busied themselves around the pregnant woman. Other than the palace maids who had brought them a few cups of tea, there was nothing else. Pregnant women were prone to hunger, and she was originally prepared to have dinner at the elegant house before she had a conflict with the Prince of Huaiyang. However, she was diverted into the palace by that one interruption.
The palace was not a place to entertain people. It did not matter if you were full or hungry.
Emperor Yong Ping called a few people over and ignored them. Huaiyang Wang Wen, Ning County Head, and Yuan Chen were in the middle, clearly divided.
As for King Huaiyang’s residence, although they were also witnesses, or even parties involved, their status was not high enough. Moreover, there were many people who fought. They were all sent back to the residence by King Huaiyang.
The Huaiyang Princess was also knocked into during the dispute. She was knocked into a daze, her hair was messy, and her makeup was smudged.
Her temper became even worse when she was locked up in the palace and shared a room with Yuan Chen.
As for the relationship between the Prince of Huaiyang and Yuan Chen, although ” everyone in Jiankang knows about it,” she really didn’t know. No one had offended her in front of her and said such nonsense. Who knew if she knew? Even if she knew, she came from a small family and married into the Prince of Huaiyang with her beauty. What could she do? She had to accept it.
If it wasn’t for the lack of confidence, he wouldn’t have allowed those girls in the prince’s mansion to fight for his favor with all sorts of tricks.
However, no matter what, she was still a woman. What was Yuan Chen doing?
The Huai Yang Princess was about to vomit. She had never seen it before and did not know that it could be played like this. Her prince really had no taboos and did not reject anyone.
Yuan Chen had always been talented and famous. Although he was later covered in scandals and his reputation was ruined, since the Prince of Huaiyang invited him to take up a post in the residence, she took it that she admired Yuan Chen’s talent. Even when they usually went in and out together, she treated the Prince of Huaiyang with courtesy.
In the end, it was actually like this?!
What was the difference between her and those girls in the Imperial Residence?
Shi Ning County Head was sobbing. He didn’t even look at Yuan Chen. He was staring at the ground. He didn’t know what was going through his mind. He probably didn’t admit it, but he knew what was going on. Otherwise, he would rather ruin his reputation than marry Yuan Chen. After such a big incident, how could he be as quiet as a chicken and just sit there?
” You…” The Huaiyang Princess Consort gritted her teeth. Looking at Yuan Chen’s face that was covered in makeup, she could not help but get angry. You also call him a little boy? “Get out!”
Yuan Chen and Shi Ning County Master were stunned.
Others might not know, but they knew that this Consort Wen did not have a prominent background and had always felt inferior among the nobles in Jiankang City. She was also overly gentle in her actions and wished that those women in the Prince’s mansion could ride on her head and shit.
Huaiyang Wang said east, she did not dare to go west; She would never go east when asked to go west.
No one would have expected that he would suddenly rise up in such an occasion. Even the servants of the Prince’s mansion wouldn’t speak so arrogantly, right?
“Wangfei, the emperor wants us to-”
“Who’s with you and us? Disgusting! Does the emperor know about your relationship with the king?”The Princess of Huaiyang rarely got angry, but now she was extremely angry. She was trembling as she said those harsh words, and her eyes and nose were red.”Hurry up and get out. Don’t be an eyesore in front of me.”
“Wangfei, Xiao Baoxin and the others are in the outer room.”Shi Ning County Master subconsciously spoke up for Yuan Chen.
It was awkward for them to sit together, but would it not be awkward if they chased Yuan Chen out?
However, the Huai Yang Princess was in a fit of anger and would not listen to the advice of the Ning County Lord,”You, you’re actually speaking up for him?”
Shi Ning County Master’s eyes reddened, and tears rolled down his cheeks.
“Did the Eleventh King force you?”She did not believe it herself.
It wasn’t that he hadn’t seen Yuan Chen’s performance in front of the Prince of Huaiyang. He was in high spirits, chatting and laughing, and sometimes even dancing with joy. In the past, she thought that Yuan Chen was full of knowledge and talent, and that he was valued by the King of Huaiyang.
Now he finally knew that these two were purely fish and shrimp and shrimp, turtles and tortoises!
Could it be that Princess Kang Le had refused to agree to this marriage no matter what? Even when she was saved by Yuan Chen from falling into the water, she did not compromise at all and would rather her reputation be destroyed? If she hadn’t risked her life to marry him back then, her mother wouldn’t have admitted defeat.
After they got married, Princess Kang Le did not change her attitude towards Yuan Chen, which even caused her to be dissatisfied.
When Shi Ning County Master thought of this, he wished he could strangle himself to death. It would have been better if he had fallen into the water from the boat and drowned. He wouldn’t have to worry so much.
“Hachi, you say… I’ll believe you if you say it.”
“Both of you, get out. Stop being so clingy in front of me! “Since the King of Huaiyang’s Consort had already torn her face to pieces, she did not leave any face for the other party.
“Get lost!”
He picked up the teacup beside him and smashed it at the feet of the Shi Ning County Head.”Get lost!”
Shi Ning County Master’s face turned red and he couldn’t stay any longer. He covered his face and left.
However, this was the Imperial Palace, not any other place. If you ran around randomly, you would be arrested as the Assassin King. The emperor told you to stay in this room, and you dare to barge in?
Other than the inner room, there was only the outer room. Xiao Baoxin and his group had already occupied it.
Shi Ning County Master pushed open the door and was stopped by a palace maid.”County Lord, you should stay inside obediently and not wander around. Otherwise, if the emperor asks for punishment, it will be hard for us to explain.”
The Ning County Lord didn’t know whether to enter or leave. The palace maid had already closed the door behind her.
Yuan Chen then followed Shi Ning County Lord out of the inner room with a gloomy face. The King of Huaiyang’s Princess had fallen out with him and had rebounded. He couldn’t show it off in the palace. If he really made a fuss, the King of Huaiyang’s Princess could afford to lose face because of her lowly background, but he, Yuan Chen, and Yuan Balang, couldn’t afford to lose face.
Moreover, he knew the situation and was afraid that he would not leave a good impression on the emperor.
Xiao Baoxin and his group were on the same side as Shi Ning County Head and Yuan Chen. They didn’t care about each other. No one wanted to make a big fuss, but no one wanted to ease the tension. Yuan Chen and his wife stood at the door, their backs almost leaning against the door.
Occasionally, there would be a sudden loud roar in the royal study, and the sound of quarreling could be heard.
Xiao Baoxin looked up at Yuan Chen and said,” “If you keep staring at me, I’ll dig your eyeballs out.”His tone was firm.
Lu Dalang, who was sitting at the side, could not help but tremble. What a terrifying wife. No wonder Xie Xian was said to be afraid of his wife like a tiger. This was reasonable. Regardless of whether Yuan Chen believed it or not, he believed it.
