Chapter 60 High Nickel Punishes the Crown Princess
Crown Princess Chen Daiqiong walked out of Fengzao Palace covered in dust and dirt and went to the Imperial Hospital to get the "calming tea".
Chen Daiyu also walked out of Fengzao Palace dejectedly and followed closely behind, complaining all the way:
"The queen is so blind that she favors Fu Yuzheng. Obviously, you are her biological daughter-in-law, much closer to her than Fu Yuzheng."
Fu Yuzheng is at best just a niece-in-law.
Princess Chen Daiqiong angrily rebuked her sister: "Okay, stop complaining in the palace, lest the walls have ears. If the Queen's people hear it, you will be in big trouble."
Although Chen Daiyu was dissatisfied, she still listened to her sister's words, shut her mouth, and cursed Fu Yuzheng's ancestors in her heart...
~
Fengzao Palace.
After the Crown Princess left, Empress Gao pulled Fu Yuzheng to sit next to her again, patted her hands and said, "I didn't take good care of you today. I'm afraid my daughter will blame me as her aunt."
Gao Ni was Empress Gao's nephew, so there was nothing wrong with calling him "Ni'er".
However, when these words reached the ears of Lady Lin, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, she found them extremely harsh.
In terms of kinship, Gao Ni was a bastard, not even comparable to her legitimate son Gao Yan. But whenever Empress Gao mentioned Gao Ni, she always affectionately called him "this palace's Ni'er", while when it came to Gao Yan, she only called him "Yan'er", missing the three words "this palace's".
Even though there are only three missing words, the difference in closeness is obvious.
Obviously, when she was young, Empress Gao preferred Gao Yan, who was born of a legitimate wife! Now, with the rise of Gao Ni and the reuse of Emperor Jingde, Empress Gao also began to favor Gao Ni.
Lady Lin, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, was almost mad to death just thinking about these things.
What was even more difficult for her to accept was that Fu Yuzheng, who was sitting beside Empress Gao in such glory, was once the fiancée of her son Gao Yan.
——The favored one changed his owner, and even his fiancée changed his owner, which made Lin feel extremely upset.
Not long after, Crown Princess Chen Daiqiong brought back the "soothing tea" from the Imperial Hospital. After the maid prepared it, she planned to pretend to serve it to Fu Yuzheng in front of Empress Gao.
However, when she entered the main hall, she found that Fu Yuzheng had left.
The maidservant pointed to the courtyard and said, "Crown Princess, Miss Fu San has gone to the pavilion to enjoy the flowers."
Upon hearing this, Crown Princess Chen Daiqiong turned around and walked out of the main hall. After coming to the long corridor, she casually threw the "calming tea" to the little palace maid.
She rolled her eyes at Fu Yuzheng in the pavilion and said in a hateful voice, "Let me, the Crown Princess, serve tea to Fu Yuzheng. Humph, is she worthy of that?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that the palace maid beside her had a horrified expression.
Chen Daiqiong frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
The maid pointed behind her, and Chen Daiqiong turned around and saw Gao Ni's tall and mighty figure standing behind her, staring at her with sinister eyes, as if a killing god had come to take her life. Chen Daiqiong panicked and clenched the handkerchief in her hand even tighter.
However, she quickly remembered her status - the high and mighty Crown Princess, the daughter of the Prime Minister. Why should she be afraid of the Jinyiwei Commander? She forced herself to calm down.
Gao Ni stared at her for a moment, then suddenly gave a wicked smile: "I heard that the Crown Princess was punished? It seems that the Queen is too merciful and the punishment was too light—"
The ending sound rises and is long.
Although the tone was clearly very inappropriate, Crown Princess Chen Daiqiong broke out in a cold sweat.
She didn't dare to hold on any longer, so she took the tray from the palace maid, walked down the corridor, and went towards Fu Yuzheng in the pavilion.
In the pavilion, Fu Yuzheng was chatting and laughing with sisters Cui Jiaojiao and Cui Yingying, when she suddenly heard a voice, "Miss Fu San is here, it took me so long to find her." Fu Yuzheng turned around and saw that it was the Crown Princess who came with tea.
Fu Yuzheng asked knowingly, "What's this, Crown Princess?"
Chen Daiqiong's heart choked, but she caught a glimpse of Gao Ni staring at her from the corner of her eye, so she could only bite the bullet and explain in public: "This is the calming tea I just brought back, and I brought it here to apologize to Miss Fu."
Fu Yuzheng pretended to be enlightened: "Oh, I apologize, the Crown Princess still remembers it. It's just a small matter, I have a broad mind and have forgotten it all long ago."
Chen Daiqiong: ???
Is this a satire on her narrow-mindedness?
The noble ladies on the side all tried to hold back their laughter.
They all heard the strong sarcasm in Fu Yuzheng's words.
Especially Cui Jiaojiao (the girl whose ruby was stolen by Liu Qing'er), she burst into laughter, and then quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, her face turning red.
Although Fu Yuzheng said that, her actions were unambiguous. She took the apology tea offered by the Crown Princess and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, she looked at the Crown Princess seriously and said word by word: "This tastes... so good!"
After saying that, she threw the empty cups back onto the tray with a "bang". The cups spun several circles on the tray before coming to a stop.
Finally, Fu Yuzheng clapped her hands and smiled at Chen Daiqiong: "My Lady Crown Princess, I forgive you. Thank you very much for the tea you specially prepared for me."
Chen Daiqiong forced out an awkward laugh and left the stage with a slightly tense face. As soon as she walked down the pavilion, she heard Cui Jiaojiao in the pavilion burst into laughter.
It is obvious who is being mocked.
Chen Daiqiong was so angry that she wanted to turn around and teach Cui Jiaojiao a lesson, but when her eyes fell on Gao Ni who refused to leave the corridor, she immediately became timid.
In the pavilion, Fu Yuzheng saw Cui Jiaojiao laughing so hard that tears came out, so she considerately handed her handkerchief to her and gently wiped away her tears.
As for this girl Cui Jiaojiao, although Fu Yuzheng didn't like her in her previous life, she thought she was too extravagant and dressed tacky like a nouveau riche every day.
But in this life, because of stealing the ruby, Cui Jiaojiao got rid of Liu Qing'er, and later Cui Jiaojiao caused Fu Yuyao to have a miscarriage. These two things made Fu Yuzheng begin to feel that Cui Jiaojiao's temper was very similar to hers.
In addition, among so many noble ladies just now, only Cui Jiaojiao dared to laugh loudly at the Crown Princess. This courage and boldness made Fu Yuzheng look at her with admiration.
Just like that, the two began to get along well!
"Hey, how is the marriage between your sister Cui Yingying and Gao Yan going? Did it fall through?" Fu Yuzheng asked, sitting on the vermilion railing of the pavilion, gently touching Cui Jiaojiao's shoulder with her shoulder.
Cui Jiaojiao pursed her lips and said, "Don't mention it. My sister's marriage proposal fell through, but the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo fell in love with me and insisted on marrying me!"
"Ah?" Fu Yuzheng was shocked. Could this be possible?
But everything seems to make sense.
Her elder sister Cui Yingying was too weak in character. From her quarrel with Fu Yuyao in the study of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion last time, it could be seen that she was not someone who could suppress a concubine.
Gao Yan's favoritism towards Fu Yuyao continued from his previous life to this one. If he married a wife who couldn't keep her composure, there would be chaos in his backyard.
However, Cui Jiaojiao was different. She caused Fu Yuyao to have a miscarriage with just one move, leaving her with no ability to fight back. How could Lady Lin, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, not like such a daughter-in-law? !
If Fu Yuzheng were the mother-in-law, she would also choose a daughter-in-law like Cui Jiaojiao, who is brave, resourceful, and able to keep the situation under control!
However, betrothing Cui Jiaojiao to Gao Yan would be a huge loss for Cui Jiaojiao.
Fu Yuzheng asked with sympathy, "Are you really planning to get engaged to Gao Yan?"
"Who cares about Gao Yan? Look at that dirty concubine from a brothel beside him. Only a fool would marry him!" Cui Jiaojiao snorted. "You really pushed me to the limit. Don't blame me for doing anything bad."
Fu Yuzheng smiled and asked, "What are you going to do?
Cui Jiaojiao raised her chin and said, "If the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. We will see what happens then!" She looked heroic and fearless.
Fu Yuzheng smiled and nodded: "If I can help you by then, please tell me and I will do my best to help you!"
"A word is settled!"
"A word is settled!"
The two girls, who equally looked down on Gao Yan, high-fived each other and formed an alliance.
In the corridor, Gao Ni watched Fu Yuzheng for a full quarter of an hour. Seeing her chatting and laughing with Cui Jiaojiao, smiling so brightly, he turned around and left Fengzao Palace with peace of mind, and went straight to the East Palace to find the prince.
The journey was smooth and no one dared to stop it.
Gao Ni pushed open the study door and sat down in the armchair in front of the desk, with his legs spread out, looking like a boss who was about to come and serve him.
Prince:......
Staff: ...
At this time, the crown prince and several of his staff were discussing disaster relief in the south. Seeing Gao Ni coming, the crown prince waved his hand to dismiss them, then smiled at Gao Ni and said, "What brings Commander Gao here?"
Even though they are cousins, Gao Ni and the prince are not close on weekdays.
To be honest, Gao Ni was a close confidant of Emperor Jingde, but not the crown prince. Therefore, the crown prince always tried to win over Gao Ni.
Gao Ni smiled, and he stretched out two fingers and tapped the desk rhythmically, making a sound. After tapping for a long while, he slowly spoke:
"Such a big thing happened in Fengzao Palace, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't know anything about it?"
The prince was stunned, obviously knowing nothing.
Gao Ni continued, "I will touch anyone who dares to touch my woman, Gao Ni, except her parents. I hope Your Highness the Crown Prince will be mentally prepared."
After saying that, Gao Ni stood up and left without even a basic bow, and walked away without looking back.
The prince was left standing there in a daze, looking confused.
After coming to his senses, the prince immediately ordered the eunuch beside him to find out what had happened.
Soon, the eunuch returned and said:
"The Crown Princess was venting her anger on her family, and she deliberately scratched Miss Fu's wrist and sleeve with her armor, intending to frame Miss Fu for misbehaving in front of the palace, and wanted to punish her according to the palace rules."
The prince was almost angry to death.
He said that Gao Ni usually behaved in a ridiculous way, but no matter how unrestrained he was, he would still restrain himself in front of him, the crown prince. Unlike today, he came and went in a hurry and even skipped the basic greetings.
It turned out that the Crown Princess offended the fiancée!
The prince frowned fiercely and said, "Where is the Crown Princess? Call Lone Horse over!"
The young eunuch shrank his neck, thinking that the Crown Princess was already unfavored, and would probably become even less favored in the future.
