Oh, it has been so many years since anyone has put on airs in front of her. The last person who was so arrogant was her sister who became a noble concubine. She thought that she could show off in front of her just because she became an imperial concubine, but she ended up being beaten badly by her.

Not to mention that the other party is not the Crown Princess, even if she is, Liu Qingyun would not be afraid.

"Your wife is so arrogant, it makes me a little curious. Well, I ate too much just now, so I'll go meet your wife and digest the food."

Huizhi gestured: "Madam, please come this way."

The two went to the Rose Garden.

The yard is full of flowers and is neatly arranged, showing signs of careful care.

But although it is beautiful, it lacks some of its natural charm.

Huizhi kept observing Liu Qingyun's expression.

The lady likes to take care of flowers and plants on weekdays. Every female member who has entered her yard is amazed by her gardening skills.

Is this woman simply ignorant of what is good, or has she seen better ones?

"My wife had nothing to do, so she just chatted with me casually."

Huizhi said with a smile.

Liu Qingyun said calmly: "I can see that it is indeed quite casual."

Huizhi: “…”

Liu Qingyun thought that her mother's yard was beautiful, while other people's yards could only be called vegetable gardens.

Huizhi led Liu Qingyun into the house.

Dou Qingyi sat upright in the main seat.

Liu Qingyun recognized her as the woman he had almost bumped into just now: "You're the one who asked me to serve you tea in the middle of the night?"

Dou Qingyi wore a lake blue corseted silk dress embroidered with transparent gauze, which outlined her graceful figure.

Her hair accessories look simple, but in fact each one has a great origin, especially the oriental pearl embellishing her forehead, which was awarded to her by the queen.

When the two met just now, she was not wearing this outfit.

It’s a pity that Liu Qingyun didn’t notice it at all.

Huizhi secretly looked at Liu Qingyun again. What was wrong with this woman? The lady's outfit was so good that even the ladies in the palace would be envious.

Dou Qingyi put the teacup in her hand on the table and said gently, "Sister, you are being too polite."

Liu Qingyun stretched out her hand: "No, I'm not your sister."

Dou Qingyi said graciously, "Huizhi, please take a seat."

What a great gesture of bestowing a seat! The hierarchy is determined with just one sentence.

Huizhi brought a stool.

The stool was shorter than Dou Qingyi's chair. Once she sat down, she was a head shorter than Dou Qingyi.

Even though Liu Qingyun had never eaten pork, she had seen a pig walk, so she would not fall for such tricks.

"If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have a fart, hurry up!"

Huizhi said, "This is the prince's residence, please be careful with your words and actions, madam."

Liu Qingyun sneered: "You also know that this is the Prince's Mansion. Does the Prince's Mansion have the rules for servants to lecture their masters?"

Huizhi choked.

Dou Qingyi said gently, "Sister, you have just arrived and you don't have a personal maid. Tomorrow I will have someone go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to record your identity and ask them to send a few useful palace maids over."

These words clearly meant that Liu Qingyun had not yet made his way and could not be considered the master of the mansion.

Liu Qingyun had never intended to be the master of the Prince's Mansion, so he was not angered at all: "It's okay, I'm leaving."

Dou Qingyi picked up the teacup and asked softly, "May I ask when and where did I meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Liu Qingyun asked back: "How do you know that the prince and I met by chance?"

Dou Qingyi paused while drinking her tea and asked calmly, "Sister, I don't recognize you. I haven't seen you in the Imperial City before."

Liu Qingyun said meaningfully: "From what you said, you have been in the Imperial City for more than three to five months. Otherwise, how could you think that you have seen all the women in the Imperial City?"

Liu Qingyun is stubborn about some things, but most of the time he is very smart.

Dou Qingyi said calmly, "I am the prince's woman, and I have met many ladies from noble families. Please don't misunderstand me. I wanted to invite you to have tea today, but I didn't expect to make you angry. I was not thoughtful enough. It's getting late, I'll ask Huizhi to take you back to the courtyard."

Having just gotten some useful information out of him, Liu Qingyun didn’t want to leave yet.

Her eyes moved, and she pointed at the teacup on the opposite table and said, "You are right. You came to the palace before me. According to the rules, I should call you sister, lest His Majesty blames me in the future. It would be fine if I get scolded, but it would be bad if it implicated my son. Okay, I'll serve you some tea."

Huizhi suspected that she had heard it wrong.

Is this woman's attitude changing a little too quickly?

Liu Qingyun glared at her: "What are you standing there for? Pass the tea to me? Are you going to let me serve tea to your wife?"

Huizhi looked at Dou Qingyi.

Dou Qingyi nodded slightly.

Huizhi walked forward, poured a cup of tea, put it on the saucer and handed it to Liu Qingyun.

Liu Qingyun walked up to Dou Qingyi with tea in hand.

Just when everyone thought she had finally recognized her identity and was about to bow to Dou Qingyi, her hand slipped.

The boiling hot tea was poured towards Dou Qingyi.

What Dou Qingyi cares about most is her face, and she will never allow any mistakes to happen to her face.

She instinctively grabbed the tray at hand and used her backhand to block the teacup that Liu Qingyun was throwing at her.

When he blocked the splash, it was Liu Qingyun who was splashed.

Liu Qingyun moved his wrist flexibly and actually collected the spilled tea back into his own teacup without a drop left.

She spun around like a blooming snow lotus, and when she returned to the center of the main hall, she had in her hand a jade bottle that she had taken from Dou Qingyi's sleeve.

Liu Qingyun took a look and said, "Hey, Gu Ping, you are from Miaojiang."

Dou Qingyi's expression changed.

At this moment, a servant outside the courtyard cried out, "Your Highness!"

Huizhi hurriedly reached out to grab the bottle of Gu, and took the opportunity to knock over Liu Qingyun's teacup.

"How could you...how could you throw tea on my wife?"

When Lu Zhaoyan entered the room, he happened to hear Huizhi's righteous accusation.

He looked at the broken porcelain on the ground and subconsciously looked at Liu Qingyun.

Dou Qingyi clenched her handkerchief tightly.

Huizhi knelt down and said, "Your Highness! You have to make the decision for Madam——"

"You're sneaking at me, right?"

Liu Qingyun gritted her teeth and smiled, walked quickly to Dou Qingyi, picked up the tea on the table, and splashed it on her face mercilessly.

Then, she turned to look at Lu Zhaoyan, "Okay, now you can make the decision for your woman!"

A cold light flashed in Lu Zhaoyan's eyes.

But it was not directed at Liu Qingyun.

Dou Qingyi stood up in embarrassment: "Huizhi! Stop talking nonsense!"

Lu Zhaoyan took Liu Qingyun's wrist, said only one sentence: "You will be beaten to death", and took Liu Qingyun away.

Dou Qingyi slumped down in the chair in a daze.

Even if she gave birth to a son for him, would he still care so much about that woman?

Huizhi crawled to Dou Qingyi's feet and cried, "Madam, please save me. I don't want to die."

Dou Qingyi said sternly, "You are confused! His Highness is such an intelligent person. Do you think you can hide this clumsy trick from him? He hates it most when others play tricks on him. You are courting death and almost got me involved - someone, drag him away!"
