When the banquet started, it was Qingle's turn to offer gifts first. The servant girl recited it several times, but Qingle was still nowhere to be seen.
A lot of ladies started to talk about it, and I don't know who started to spread the word. Princess Qingle was sneaky and met a man, but was bumped into by a servant girl.
Princess Jinshu's expression darkened when she heard the words, and she glanced at the servant girl. The servant girl understood, and Princess Jinshu's face turned black with anger, this wicked girl!
"No way, how could the princess be such a person?"
"Knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart, who knows what the princess looks like in private?"
"This..." The lady took a look at the old lady's face, hesitated to speak, and then told the story of bidding with the eldest prince for the Narcissus girl that day, which surprised all the ladies.
Princess Jinshu looked even more annoyed, "Go and invite the girl."
This refers to Liu Qingwu, it's a pity that such a great opportunity to show her face was given to a stepdaughter for nothing.
"yes!"
After a while, the servant girl came over with an even uglier face, and her steps were a little hurried.
Princess Jinshu sipped softly: "What's going on? What does it look like in a panic!"
The servant girl winked at Princess Jinshu, but before Princess Jinshu spoke, the old lady was a little worried, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
The old lady's words attracted the attention of many people, and they all looked over.
Princess Jinshu only thought that something happened to Qingle, and said in a low voice, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
The servant girl's face turned pale, and she hesitated, Princess Jin Shu's brows tightened, "Hurry up and say it!"
"Yes...it's Miss Wu."
"What?" Princess Jinshu stood up abruptly, "What's going on, what's wrong with Wu'er?"
The maid faltered and blushed, Princess Jin Shu was in a hurry, and immediately a lady behind her said, "Princess, why don't you go and have a look together?"
Without saying a word, Princess Jin Shu took her maid to Liu Qingwu's yard.
The outside was surrounded by maids and women, all of them blushed and poked their heads inside curiously. When they saw Princess Jinshu, they immediately backed away.
"Hmm... well, go ahead."
There was silence in the yard for a while, and suddenly there was such a strange sound in the yard, the faces of the ladies changed at that moment, it was simply too much to do such a shameless thing in broad daylight.
"Where's Miss Nine?" The old lady was concerned about Concubine Xiao, so she turned her head and asked.
"Grandmother, why is everyone in this yard?" Concubine Xiao asked suspiciously, and stepped forward to wrap her arms around the old lady's arm, "Whose yard is this?"
"It's Miss Liu." Xiao Shu whispered.
Concubine Xiao understood, "The princess in front prepared a show, why did everyone come here?"
Princess Jinshu had a gloomy expression, and reluctantly explained.
"This is a misunderstanding, Wu'er is not feeling well, maybe she is taking medicine..."
All the wives sneered, but they didn't expose it. It's rare that Princess Jinshu dotes on such a daughter like this. She couldn't help but see that Princess Jinshu's expression also changed slightly.
"Maybe it's a misunderstanding, let's go first, the princess hasn't prepared a show yet?"
"Yes, yes, let's go."
Two ladies were smoothing things out with a smile, and were about to leave, Xiao Concubine silently checked the number in her heart.
"Ah! Help!"
Suddenly a scream pierced the sky above the entire courtyard, Princess Jin Shu paused slightly, her face was a little stiff.
A few ladies had already run in, and when the door was opened, a man came out with disheveled clothes and a flustered expression.
As soon as he walked out, he immediately froze.
"Princess... Princess?" Seeing Princess Jin Shu's gloomy expression, the man's legs suddenly softened.
"Ah, Sister Liu, how could there be a man from Zhonghua?" Xiao Concubine looked puzzled, and the old lady's face became more serious, covering Xiao Concubine's eyes.
"You are not allowed to read it, and after reading it, you will be punished to copy the scriptures a hundred times. Hurry up, take Miss Jiu out, so you don't have to dirty your eyes."
Concubine Xiao stuck out her tongue and was dragged away by the servant girl. The noble ladies listened and hurried out after her.
Liu Qingwu in the room was stunned, the bruises all over her body made her mind blank, what happened just now played back in her mind, both shocked and angry.
"Little...Miss?" Caiju rubbed his head, the pain was unbearable.
Liu Qingwu's expression changed, she knew that Princess Jinshu was outside, and her heart was beating violently.
Liu Qingwu gave Caiju some instructions in a low voice, and Caiju's eyes widened with panic.
"Miss? This..."
Liu Qingwu took a deep breath, "It's okay, at most I'll be punished. If you don't admit it, and something happened to me, my mother will definitely blame you. At that time, it will either be sold or killed. It's up to you to choose."
Liu Qingwu coaxed and threatened, so Caiju gritted her teeth and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I will obey Miss."
Liu Qingwu smiled, "Don't worry, I will definitely plead with my mother."
After saying that, Liu Qingwu touched the vase with the corner of her eye, picked it up, and knocked it on her head without hesitation, blood was all over the corner of her eyebrows.
"Miss!" Caiju almost exclaimed, and Liu Qingwu fell down as soon as her body softened.
Outside the door, in front of so many people, Princess Jinshu couldn't hide anything for Liu Qingwu. She took a deep breath and said to the servant girl, "Go and see!"
"yes!"
The servant girl pushed the door and entered, and stood at the door in shock, "Princess, Miss Wu is injured!"
When Princess Jinshu heard this, she hurried forward, only to find Liu Qingwu lying in a pool of blood, and Caiju standing aside trembling, her clothes disheveled.
Princess Jinshu let out a sigh of relief, and the people behind quickly put their heads in to have a look.
"It turned out that it wasn't Miss Liu, but a servant girl who was having an affair. Miss Liu found out and injured Miss Liu!"
"It's unreasonable!" Princess Jin Shu was so angry that she was about to get angry, her eyes were full of coldness.
"Princess... No, not a slave girl." Caiju shook her body, trembling, how did she turn into this scene so well, shouldn't she go to Princess Qingle
"Mother." Liu Qingwu just woke up, covering her head, and a maid hurriedly supported Liu Qingwu.
Princess Jinshu felt very distressed, and hurriedly said, "Quick, hurry up and invite the imperial physician!"
"Mother, it's my daughter who interrupted my mother's birthday party."
Liu Qingwu's face was pale, and she was sobbing, her frailty and slenderness aroused pity.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Princess Jinshu cast a coquettish look at Liu Qingwu, her eyes were full of distress, she suddenly turned her eyes, and looked at Caiju fiercely.
"Say! What the hell is going on here?"
Caiju was stunned for a moment, then knelt down as soon as her legs softened, "I know I was wrong, I am guilty..."
Princess Jin Shu's chest heaved up and down angrily.
The man was stunned when he heard that, he obviously slept with Liu Qingwu, why did he change into a chrysanthemum in the blink of an eye
The man's thoughts turned very quickly. A tryst with Caiju would be nothing more than a meal. If Liu Qingwu bites back, he might lose his life. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to agree.
"Princess, please forgive me. I was confused for a while, and Caiju couldn't help it..."
