Chapter 1081 - 903 Prelude to the Turmoil at the Banquet_2
For a moment, the tense atmosphere spread, and the scene was utterly silent!Everyone couldn’t help but hold their breath, their eyes fixed on the person speaking in the crowd!
"Who is speaking?"
Just as everyone was holding their breath and unsure of what to do in the tense situation, Princess Lianchun’s calm and measured voice suddenly rang out!
Everyone clutched their handkerchiefs tightly, glancing from Princess Lianchun on the left to the woman who had spoken in the crowd on the right!
With a single sentence, Princess Lianchun’s attention was successfully captured, and Xie Yingying felt that her performance today was quite satisfactory!
With a bit more effort, she might just achieve her heart’s desire.
"This humble daughter is Xie Yingying, the eldest daughter of the Xie Family of Wuliuxiang, greeting the Princess!"
Xie Yingying, meeting Princess Lianchun’s inquisitive gaze, gracefully emerged from the crowd, took a few steps forward to stand before Princess Lianchun, and bowed with elegance, her posture impeccable in manner!
"Wuliuxiang?
What kind of place is that?"
Princess Lianchun was not seated in the main position at that moment but was seated below Lady Ji, who was presently staring frostily at Xie Yingying!
Xie Yingying’s hand, hidden in her sleeve, was sweating from the cold sweat that Lady Ji’s stare had brought on, making her palms damp!
"It is said that during the former dynasty, Wuliuxiang was also a very famous place. It was the residence of the clan of a great family.
But unfortunately, with the change of dynasties, the Xie Family of Wuliuxiang did not produce any talents, and thus it declined!
So, it’s normal for Princess Lianchun not to know of it!"
Lady Ji’s words were quite clever, first diminishing the Xie Family to dust, then affectionately using Princess Lianchun’s name without honorifics, making their relationship seem sweet!
As expected, hearing Lady Ji call her by her name, rather than always elevating her as if she were a deity as before, Princess Lianchun was quite pleased!
Who wouldn’t want to be close to Lady Ji?
Especially since Ji Youyuan and the little girl in her arms had once saved her life!
Protecting her family, guarding this land!
"So, a girl from a declining family, is she?
I was wondering which properly raised lady would so insolently open her mouth and speak without sense?"
As soon as Princess Lianchun spoke, everyone couldn’t help but take a breath of cold air, and Xie Old Madam felt a jolt in her heart, almost choking on blood rising in her throat.
Because she could clearly feel the unabashed stares from everyone around her!
Their eyes and mouths were filled with mockery and amusement!
"Old Madam, the young mistress has offended the Princess!"
The nanny beside Xie Old Madam was frightened, hurriedly crouching down and softly reminding her in her ear.
"I know, I shouldn’t have brought this jinx along!
Now it’s done, we’ve offended Princess Lianchun, and our Xie Family will surely suffer consequences from now on!"
Hearing this from Xie Old Madam, the nanny couldn’t help but panic entirely.
"What should we do now? The young mistress has already created such a huge mess.
Even if we were to pull her away now, it wouldn’t work, Old Madam, you have to think of a way to resolve this issue!
If not, who knows when disaster will befall our Xie Family!"
The nanny urgently whispered in Xie Old Madam’s ear.
"I know that she will inevitably bring a great disaster upon our Xie Family, but she is in front of the Princess now, bearing the Princess’s wrath, I barely have time to avoid it, let alone rush headlong into the line of fire!"
Xie Old Madam secretly gritted her teeth, having lived for most of her life, half a foot in the grave, she dared not step forward, yet yearned to move forward!
"But even so, we have to come up with a way!
If the young mistress continues like this, it will undoubtedly bring calamity to the Xie Family!"
All honor or failure is collectively shared; her servant’s life was also at stake!
"Let’s not rush, let’s see what happens first!"
Xie Old Madam dared not move forward, keeping her ears up, all her attention focused on Princess Lianchun and Xie Yingying.
At this moment, Xie Yingying also wished to die, but more than that, she wanted Li Suisui to die, because she always felt that if it weren’t for Li Suisui, she might have become the Empress by now.
A child from the common folk, becoming the Great Han’s Princess!
Becoming the Princess would have been fine, but why did she have to stand up for Xie Pan’Er?
