After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Liu Yunxiang stood in the middle of the hall. Amidst these insults, she straightened her back without bending a little.

"Ms. Liu, we don't respect you by saying 'Princess', it's because your virtue is not worthy of your place!" Mrs. Dingyuan Hou waved her hand, and others stopped pointing at Liu Yunxiang and scolding her.

"Qing Yue was born in the Chang Bo Mansion, one of the eight noble families. She is both talented and beautiful, gentle and virtuous. In the past few years, His Highness Seventh Prince has been away from the capital. She has abided by her duties and supported the entire palace. Now that His Highness Seventh Prince has returned to the mansion, she thought that all the hardships will be rewarded. But you showed up unexpectedly and occupied the princess's position, which is no different from a dove occupying a magpie's nest. If you were sensible, you should have entered the palace yourself and asked for permission to return the princess's position to Qing Yue."

"Exactly, Qingyue is better born than you, has more virtues than you, and is more suitable to be a princess." Others also agreed.

"Mr. Liu." The eldest princess looked at Liu Yunxiang, took a deep breath and said, "What do you think?"

Liu Yunxiang snorted, "No matter how I look at it, of course I take it as a joke."

"You really have no repentance at all!"

"Am I wrong? Why should I change it?"

The eldest princess snorted coldly, "Concubine Yuan was forced to take poison by you..."

"As I said, she put the poison pill into her mouth herself. Maybe she thought it tasted good, so she took a few mouthfuls of it, but the taste probably wasn't right, so she spit it out again. If that's the case, the dog would have gone crazy and hit the wall on its own. Now, why should we blame the dog owner?"

"you!"

"My position as princess was conferred by the emperor. If you really have the ability, you should go into the palace and make trouble. Now you want me to go into the palace and tell the emperor to give the position of princess to Yuan Qingyue. What do you think? One by one. Are you crazy?"

This sentence left everyone here speechless. Those who did not scold and were thin-skinned may collapse after being scolded for so long, and then they would be so stupid as to give up the princess's seat. But not Liu Yunxiang. They scolded them. No matter what they scolded, she just treated them like dogs barking.

"We don't insist that you give up your position as princess, but we just hope that you will be a virtuous mistress. This will also be good for the Zhenbei Palace." Mrs. Dingyuan Hou said.

Liu Yunxiang laughed, made some fooling around, and tried to make amends for himself.

"Qingyue, please stretch out your hand and let the ladies see it."

Yuan Qingyue shook her head timidly, "Auntie, let's forget it."

"The eldest princess will make the decision for you, so what are you afraid of?"

Yuan Qingyue glanced at Liu Yunxiang, as if he was afraid of her, shrank back, hesitated for a while, and then stretched out his hand. The hand she stretched out was the scalded hand. The back of the hand was swollen like a steamed bun. There were many water spirit seeds on it, and it was a little broken, revealing red flesh oozing with blood. It looked like it was seriously injured.

It's been two or three days and she hasn't dealt with it yet.

"We said you forced her to take poison, but you don't admit it. Then the injuries on her hands are real. You can't deny it, right?"

Liu Yunxiang chuckled, "She did hurt herself."

"She's not crazy, why did she burn herself?"

"To show you."

"You, you are still making excuses!"

Liu Yunxiang shrugged, "I don't need to quibble with you."

Yuan Qingyue cried and shook her head, "Auntie, the princess must not have done it on purpose. Qingyue's parents died, and she received the care of her aunt, the eldest princess, and all the aunts. She is very grateful. I won't mention it anymore, so as not to disturb the palace. Restless.”

"Qing Yue, you are too weak, that's why you are bullied like this." Mrs. Dingyuan Hou turned green with anger. She looked at Liu Yunxiang again, "You are the Princess of Zhenbei. Although we are angry, we are also I really don’t dare to do anything to you.”

The old lady of Dingyuan Marquis asked her maid to bring a cup of hot tea. She brought it to Liu Yunxiang, "I am respected by everyone. I think I am a bit thin. I will personally deliver this cup of tea to you, Princess. Please give me your respect again." Give it to Qing Yue, think of it as an apology to her, and forget about it. From now on, you can be nice and gentle, so as not to cause trouble to His Highness."

Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes. This old lady of Dingyuanhou relied on her old age to show off her old age. She was a junior after all, so it was hard not to accept this cup of tea. But if Jing Yuan Qingyue had a main room serving tea to the side room, wouldn't she become a joke in the whole city?

Liu Yunxiang thought for a moment, took the tea from Mrs. Dingyuanhou with a smile, but raised his head and drank it himself.

"Since the old lady has apologized to me on behalf of the Yuan family, I will naturally give the old lady some face. Let this be settled."

The old lady stared at Liu Yunxiang with deep eyes, her face turned green. She waved and asked the maid to bring a pot of hot tea.

"Princess, you must be thirsty. I'll pour you a cup of tea myself."

With that said, Mrs. Dingyuanhou raised the teapot and poured water into the teacup in Liu Yunxiang's hand.

Liu Yunxiang had to accept it even if he didn't want to, but the old man deliberately tilted the spout of the pot and poured the hot tea onto the back of Liu Yunxiang's hand. She dropped the cup in pain and quickly hid her hand back.

"Oh, I'm old and my eyes are dim, but did I burn the princess?"

This old man actually had something to say, "The princess is so proud that I personally poured you tea, but you actually threw the cup away. You are really arrogant and domineering."

Everyone else was laughing, as if they were watching a good show and knew that she would only suffer the consequences of being mute.

Liu Yunxiang looked stern and waved his hand, knocking over the teapot in Mrs. Dingyuanhou's hand. The teapot turned half a circle, the lid fell off, and all the hot tea inside spilled onto the back of Mrs. Dingyuanhou's hand.

"Ah!" she screamed.

The others were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly gathered around. Looking at the old lady's hand, they immediately became red and swollen, and then a lot of water sprang up.

This is a whole pot of hot water!

After the eldest princess was shocked, she pointed at Liu Yunxiang and said, "You, you are so brave, you still don't kneel down and kowtow to the old lady to apologize!"

"You are too arrogant and domineering, eldest princess, we cannot let her off lightly today!"

"Even if the palace asks, it's her fault!"

"Exactly, King Zhenbei can't protect her!"

The crowd surrounded Liu Yunxiang, but Liu Yunxiang was alone, and Zijin was blocked at the entrance of the courtyard.

Murong Lingyi stepped forward and took advantage of the chaos to kick Liu Yunxiang in the back of her legs, causing her to stagger and almost kneel on the ground.

"Let's teach her the rules today and see if she dares to be so arrogant in the future!" Murong Lingyi said, reaching out and pinching Liu Yunxiang's arm.

Liu Yunxiang was really angry and turned around to scratch Murong Lingyi. Murong Lingyi also took action, and the two of them fought together.

The others seemed to be trying to break up the fight, but many of them secretly twisted and pinched Liu Yunxiang. After a while, Liu Yunxiang's clothes were in a mess, his hair was scattered, and every part of his body hurt. He was in such a miserable state.

The eldest princess supported Mrs. Dingyuan Hou and stood aside with cold eyes, while Yuan Qingyue wiped away her tears and smiled at the same time.

At this time, a young man ran over. Seeing this scene, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly ran to the eldest princess and said, "Eldest Princess, the seventh prince has come to the house."

The eldest princess rolled her eyes and said, "Let him wait. I will go see him later."

"But, His Highness Seventh has already broken in, we can't stop him!"

"This seventh child has always been so stupid!"

The eldest princess glanced at Liu Yunxiang, who was under siege, and said, "You guys stop him first."

After all this beating, this grievance must be put out. If Zhenbei Palace gains a firm foothold in the future, there will be no such opportunity.

The boy said anxiously: "His Majesty the Seventh Highness held a torch and said that he would burn down our eldest princess's mansion if he did not send the Seventh Princess out intact!"

"what!"
