Chapter 15 The Uneasy Little Princess
Ridiculing, Yun Shuangwan became more and more satisfied: "It seems that you haven't reached the point where you can say serious things in your heart."
Chu Lingyue never took anyone seriously. When faced with her repeated provocations, he only treated her as a clown and replied with a slight smile:
"Isn't Miss Yun known as 'Empress Yun' in Prince Jing's Mansion? How come after so many years, the matter of paying homage to Concubine Gu is still in the hands of an outsider? You think you have a deep relationship with the prince, how come you don't
Can’t even be compared to outsiders?”
Her words were piercing Yunsong Wan Lung's tube, and a clear and charming voice came out from somewhere: "They say that my aunt is arrogant and has no rules at all. When I saw her today, it turned out to be true. It shows that my uncle has a really good character."
Chu Lingyue turned around, and what she saw was a pretty little man with a head full of gold ornaments, a silk dress, a silver snake whip around his waist, and cloud clogs on his feet. He exuded wealth from head to toe.
This is Chu Beibei, Princess of Annan.
With just a brief glance at her, Chu Lingyue knew what Chu Banshi wanted to do for her.
King Annan and the current emperor had the same mother, and the two brothers had been very good since childhood. Although the emperor was a tyrant, with King Annan here, he held 80% of the real power.
Chu Banshi had obviously been the most favored person in Xi Zhao since he was a child, but he chose to hide his strength in front of everyone, which proved that he and the emperor were not the same person.
The anniversary of his biological mother's death was chosen by Princess Annan for so many years...
Therefore, the man wanted to use his own hands to push Princess Annan away so that she could better guard against the emperor.
Thinking about it, Chu Lingyue laughed slowly, "Your uncle has a really good character, otherwise I wouldn't have full authority to manage this palace."
After saying that, she glanced at the big guys who had been brought in for worship and looked serious for a second:
"The princess knows the rules, but she brought these things in without my permission. Who taught you to come here uninvited? Is it okay for others to be so disrespectful to the master when they come to your Annan Palace?"
Because Chu Beibei organized the worship ceremony for Concubine Gu every year, what she said in Prince Jing's Mansion was the same as the imperial edict. No one had ever dared to criticize her like this. Unexpectedly, she was scolded by Chu Lingyue in public just for showing off her power.
She puffed her mouth and immediately looked aggrieved:
"Auntie is so arrogant. My uncle has authorized me to enter Prince Jing's Mansion at will, and my father and the emperor's uncle have given me permission to take care of Concubine Gu. If you are really dissatisfied, you can go into the palace to discuss it. There is no need to hold me here.
Make Xing'er."
"Why are you anxious? I will naturally explain this matter to the emperor, so you can go out now and send someone to ask me if I can let you in?"
Chu Lingyue said coldly, turning sideways to a group of young men who were looking at each other, she added: "Help the princess throw out these messy things, and replace everything needed with new ones. Prince Jing's Mansion is not short of money, so there is no need to make do with the old ones. By then,
I can just take a look at the list and the purchased items."
After finishing speaking, she glared at Chu Beibei, who was dumbfounded, and then turned her attention to Yun Shuangwan, who seemed to be mute, "You are the first person in our house who knows the rules, so let the princess who also knows the rules live with you.
alright."
"You must fast, refrain from eating, and purify your mind before and after the worship ceremony. From today on, I will instruct the kitchen to prepare lighter vegetarian dishes for you. I hope you can worship the Buddha and chant sutras with peace of mind."
When Chu Lingyue said these words, Wanwan's pupils were shaken.
This woman is a tough girl, there is nothing she can't do!
"Sister Princess Princess arranged it very well, but it's a pity that I don't have any free space there. Why don't you let the princess live with Concubine Tang?" she asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, Chu Lingyue replied with a smile: "No."
She refused simply without any reason.
Chu Beibei was busy fuming, and she could never imagine what would greet her.
——There was only one plain porridge all day long, and the richest dish that went with it was a small plate of boiled peanuts.
"Don't you want to live anymore? Even this princess dares to stop you! If you don't get out of here, be careful and I will ask my father to kill you!"
Qiu Ri, who insisted on stopping Chu Beibei, bowed calmly: "Princess, please calm down, grandma said that in order for Concubine Gu's ceremony to be held successfully, you cannot leave the room until the scriptures are copied, especially you."
"Fart! I never had so many bullshit rules when I was in charge every year! Your master is deliberately trying to make things difficult for me! Let me out! I want to confront her in person!"
Chu Beibei yelled, but Qiu Ri ignored him and turned around and left. In a rage, she could only vent her anger on Yun Sangwan: "Aren't you my uncle's sweetheart? You don't have any say in this house? It's useless.
Stupid thing!"
Na Yun Shuangwan was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Hearing what she said, his face turned dark on the spot: "Princess, don't use me as a punching bag. If you hadn't contradicted her, I wouldn't have been burdened by you to the point where I couldn't even fill my stomach. It's really unlucky.
"
Qiu Ri, who was hiding in the dark and heard their words clearly, immediately relayed the original words to his master when he returned.
What Chu Lingyue wanted was their dog-eat-dog effect. To get this result, he only ordered: "First of all, fasting must be fasting. Tell the kitchen that there is no need to send food to Beiyuan tomorrow."
Chu Beibei, who had been hungry for two whole days, took the initiative to come to see him with a stack of copied scriptures on the morning of the third day after entering Prince Jing's Mansion.
She never expected that Chu Lingyue would only show up at noon. By then, she was already dizzy and weak from hunger.
She thought she would have the opportunity to accuse Chu Banshi in front of her, but unexpectedly Chu Beibei didn't even see the couple in the next two days.
That evening, Chu Lingyue finally appeared in the ancestral hall.
She had been busy with land deeds and shops for two days. Although she did not show any signs of fatigue, there was a layer of frost on her face and she did not look very kind.
In the past two days, there was no one in the house to suppress her. Chu Beibei also transferred people from the Annan Palace to escort her. Using chicken feathers as arrows was a great sight.
Seeing Chu Lingyue pointing out the placement of the glass lamp to the servant, her scar healed and she forgot about the pain, so she came up and ridiculed:
"Tomorrow is the anniversary of Concubine Gu's death. Although this matter was entrusted to me, Auntie shouldn't have showed up until now. It seems that there is no one like you in Prince Jing's Mansion. People who don't know would think that you are a special
Take a break."
As she said that, she automatically ignored the cold light in Chu Lingyue's eyes as she pointed at the glass cup and scolded the servant: "This is a ghost weapon, who told you to put it like this? Is it okay if you don't understand after all these years?"
Just before returning home, one of the people kept in the shop ran away. Because the poison was not buried in advance, the tracking poison could only be searched all over the capital. Chu Lingyue was annoyed that she could not find this person for a while, but she still bumped into him.
Go to Chu Beibei to commit suicide in a fancy way.
At this moment, the way she looked at her was like looking at a corpse.
"Then how do you want to put it?" Suppressing her anger, Chu Lingyue picked up the glass cup, "You tell me, I will put it myself."
Unexpectedly, Chu Beibei curled her lips, took the thing and smashed it to pieces with a look of disgust on her face: "That's all, people say that Auntie is very poisonous. If you touch this thing, it must be unclean, so it's better not to leave it.
"
After saying this, she crossed her arms and became even more provocative: "In my opinion, all the sacrifices in this room should be replaced. After all, who can guarantee that poisonous insects and other things will not get stuck on them through the air? How about Auntie
Why don't you mind the work here? If something goes wrong, I really can't explain it to my uncle."
Secretly clenching his fist, Chu Lingyue narrowed his eyes slightly.
This damn girl is really tired of living.
Seeing that she remained silent, Chu Beibei thought that she had gained momentum and became unstoppable: "Auntie, don't worry about it, after all, I am doing this for my uncle's good."
The old slave of Prince Annan's Palace on the side also chimed in when he saw this: "Yes, our princess is the emperor's pistachio. Whatever she does is reasonable. Princess Jing, don't be petty."
"Heh." Chu Lingyue sneered.
All the servants in Prince Jing's Mansion immediately realized that something was wrong and stopped what they were doing. Only Chu Beibei, Prince Annan's Mansion and others were still cheerful and didn't know what to say.
Without any warning, Chu Lingyue pulled off the golden hairpin from the head of the person in front of him with one hand, and grabbed the spiritual tablet with the other hand. With a quick hand, the spiritual tablet that had been engraved with the name "Annan King" was returned to its original position shortly after.
Chu Beibei was shocked and was about to shout something when she was suppressed by a vicious look, "The county magistrate is so decent in his affairs. Don't always use your power in other people's family affairs. I don't think you are too young."
Now that I'm young, it's time to show my filial piety to my elders. I don't mind lending this ancestral hall to your Annan Palace for now."
After saying this, she broke off the golden hairpin and smashed it hard on the face of the old slave who had just spoken to her, "Come here, tie up this bitch slave and make it a sacrifice for Concubine Gu tomorrow."
"yes!"
"Chu Lingyue, don't act like this! She is the nanny of my princess! Don't think that just because you are my uncle's concubine, you can do whatever you want! I have been pampered by the emperor since I was a child. How can my uncle not rely on me for anything?!"
Chu Beibei yelled in a panic, trying to use her status and favor to dominate others, but unexpectedly she was attacked by Chu Lingyue the next second: "I have the final say in Prince Jing's Mansion now, you have great ability and you can do it in my sect."
number."
"You!" Chu Beibei, who had been deflated for many times, watched helplessly as her wet nurse was tied up, and she turned into a clay Bodhisattva. She was so horrified that she couldn't help but murmured: "You are truly worthy of being Yu Yin's daughter!"
"Yu Yin is domineering and does all sorts of evil things in the capital! If she knew that her daughter could inherit his mantle after so many years of his death, she would probably be smiling!"
These words were like a thunderclap that exploded in Chu Lingyue's mind.
Without hesitation, she slapped her down. She looked at Chu Beibei's swollen and bleeding mouth and said coldly:
"I don't know if my mother is domineering or not, but I am indeed a domineering and lawless person. You'd better pack your things and get out of Prince Jing's Mansion as soon as possible. If you dare to provoke me again in the future, you won't get more than these slaps."
Chu Lingyue didn't pay attention to when Chu Beibei left Prince Jing's Mansion.
Now her mind was filled with one question.
