The reborn beauty is pregnant again and again

Chapter 489: The Scheming Black Lotus Daughter Vs the Noble and Arrogant Prince 16

The other noble ladies all knew about the lawsuit between the two. Wang was deeply loved by the Duke of Zhenguo, and she was still favored after more than 20 years of marriage. Moreover, the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion was thriving, so she couldn't afford to offend him.

On the other side, Prince Gong is the emperor's younger brother. He lost a leg for the emperor's ascension to the throne. The emperor loves this younger brother very much. Prince Gong is prominent and powerful, so the emperor cannot afford to offend him.

So when Princess Gong attacked Wang at this moment, those eloquent ladies seemed to have lost their hearing. No beauty dared to speak for Wang.

Wang was extremely annoyed with Princess Gong.

For example, at today's flower banquet, she did not invite Princess Gong at all, but she came uninvited, and every time she came, she caused trouble for herself.

The inner garden suddenly fell into deathly silence.

Just when Wang Shi put on a solemn and elegant face and was unwilling to pay any more attention to Princess Gong, Jiang Nanqiu, who was standing beside her, suddenly said, "The flower banquet is just a name. Mother specially sent invitations to invite all the ladies to the banquet, firstly to strengthen the relationship between each other, and secondly to let the ladies go out of the house to relax."

Her voice is clear and beautiful, and when it floats into our ears it seems to have the magical power to soothe people's hearts.

"I just married into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. My mother never restricts me from going anywhere. The scenery of this inner garden is both clear and elegant. Every time I pass by this place, I feel my mind is open."

Jiang Nanqiu, with the courage of a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger, interrupted the Chinese words of Princess Gong and insisted on speaking for Wang.

Princess Cai of Prince Gong glared at Jiang Nanqiu, feeling very unhappy. She concentrated for a moment and said, "Yes, you are a concubine's daughter, so naturally you have never seen any good things."

However, among the noble ladies present there were one or two who were born as concubines. They changed their appearance after getting married because their husbands worked hard for them.

Princess Gong was busy bullying Jiang Nanqiu, but she didn't want to offend these two noble ladies secretly.

"Princess, what you said is biased. I have visited many gardens of aristocratic families in the capital, but none of them can compare to the transcendent and unworldly mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo." The wife of Censor Sun smiled and tried to smooth things over for Jiang.

Princess Gong glared at Madam Sun and was about to make some more sarcastic remarks about Wang, but suddenly she remembered that her purpose of coming to the Zhenguo Mansion today was not just to argue. A smile appeared on her lips, "What garden? I came to the Zhenguo Mansion today to see Miss Rong. I heard that the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion fell in love with Miss Rong, and on the wedding night he left his wife and went to Miss Rong's yard. Madam Zhenguo Mansion, I would like to ask you, how can a daughter of a traitor, a fallen woman, have such a talent?"

Princess Gong knew best that words were a deadly weapon. Because she married Prince Gong, a half-dead old man, she was often ridiculed and mocked by people in the capital.

Her life was not going well, so she developed a tremendous hatred towards Jing Deshan and Wang Shide. Now, she was trapped in this hatred and couldn't extricate herself.

This little gossip about the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion had already spread throughout the capital. Many ladies secretly ridiculed Jiang Nanqiu, the legal wife, and at the same time they lamented that even though Rong Menghan had fallen into the mud, she still had the ability to win Jing Anzhi's heart.

Wang had also heard some of these rumors when she was at a banquet outside, and after returning home, she became ill and recovered a little. Now, Princess Gong brought it up again.

This matter was related to Jiang Nanqiu. Even though she was ridiculed by Princess Gong, she could only lower her head in shame and dared not say anything. Wang pinched the corner of her handkerchief and said, "When Anzhi got the girl back from the Jiaofang Bureau, he had already obtained the emperor's approval. The ladies also know that Anzhi was just a person who cared about the old relationship. He treated Miss Rong as his sister, and that's why he placed her in the Zhenguo Mansion."

This kind of rhetoric was just to whitewash the situation. The ladies all followed Wang's words and praised Jing Anzhi. However, Princess Gong said, "How can you ignore your delicate wife on your wedding night and take care of your sister who has no relatives or friends? Is your daughter-in-law an ugly woman?"

It would be inappropriate to continue talking like this. Princess Qixia and Zhuan County Lady spoke up for Wang and Jiang Nanqiu, "We all came to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion today to enjoy the scenery. Why do we keep talking about the Rong family? This is the emperor's taboo. It would be inappropriate to continue like this."

Since the two princesses had spoken, even Princess Gong had no choice but to give them face.

For a while, the quarrel between the women died down, and Wang also recovered some of her spirits. She smiled and talked with the ladies she knew about the several apricot trees in the inner garden.

"The Duke knows that I love apricot blossoms, so a few days ago he specially invited the master from Huichun Hall to plant an apricot tree for me in the inner garden." Wang's face was full of coquettishness and pride. She spoke to a woman she was familiar with, but her eyes were glancing at the Princess of Prince Gong.

When Princess Gong heard this, the sadness buried in her heart was aroused.

It was obvious that she and Jing Deshan were the ones who knew each other first, but Wang intervened and ruined her good marriage, causing her to now only be able to serve an old man who is about to step half into the coffin.

Princess Gong was so angry that she jumped up and was unwilling to stay in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. "I am in poor health, so I will go back to the palace first."

The battle was about to end with the victory of the royal family. But when Princess Gong was about to stand up, she saw a moon-white figure appear on the narrow path leading to the inner garden. The figure was graceful and her eyes were clear and beautiful. It was Rong Menghan.

Jiang Nanqiu, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was thin, and her silk dress could not hide her graceful figure. She walked towards the crowd on the bluestone tiles, looking graceful and charming, with every step she took.

Princess Gong immediately came back to her senses from her previous decadence. She looked at Wang with a proud look and said sarcastically, "It seems that Miss Rong, the daughter of a guilty minister, is living a very comfortable life in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."

Wang Shi naturally saw it too. Because Rong Menghan's status was too high to be accepted in a high-class place, Wang Shi would never allow her to appear at any banquet in the mansion.

The same thing happened at today's flower banquet. She was about to win, but she didn't expect Rong Menghan to come. Her appearance simply trampled on the reputation of the Zhenguo Mansion and the Wang family.

Wang's face suddenly turned pale. Jiang Nanqiu, who was standing beside her, quickly supported her and winked at Rong Mama.

They didn't know what Rong Menghan was thinking, and she came in front of the public without caring about her dignity. It can be seen that she is really shameless, only caring about her own honor and disgrace, and not caring about the reputation of the Zhenguo Mansion at all.
