Chang Ning was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot whose face showed "picking trouble". She moved slightly, as it was easy to get tired if she sat for a long time while pregnant.

Li Si'er, however, refused to give in. She seemed to have no scruples and was not good at speaking. She loved to pull down women of high status. She felt extremely happy when she saw them bowing their heads and being subservient to her because of her favor and the power of Duke Cheng'en.

What noble lady?

What noble and famous family?

Aren’t they all kneeling under Li Si’er’s skirt?

Sister-in-law Su Jia was a little uneasy. She really didn't expect Li Si'er to come, nor did she expect Changning to come.

You know, before, she couldn't invite either of these two Buddhas! If she could get one, she would be so happy, okay?

Who knew that today, by such a coincidence, the two of them would come together? There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Both of them are unwilling to suffer losses, which made her sweat on her back.

"Madam Li, how about we go to the flower hall in front to listen to an opera? We have invited a new troupe today."

Li Si'er ignored her and didn't take her seriously. He came here just for Changning.

She just wanted to avenge that post.

This is the first time someone has rejected her post!

Seeing Chang Ning being calm and indifferent, not paying any attention to her, Li Si'er gritted her teeth and snorted coldly: "What, Concubine Chun is so noble that even her aunt doesn't recognize her?"

"Aunt?" Chang Ning raised his eyebrows and turned to ask his second sister-in-law, "Second sister-in-law, our aunt is here? Didn't we just burn incense for her the other day? Didn't we burn enough paper money?"

Everyone was shocked, and then they remembered that Mrs. Chun's maternal uncle was the Socho Luo clan, and his wife had indeed passed away two years ago, but the man was infatuated and never remarried.

This time, there will be some fun to watch.

Li Si'er was the first to start the trouble, not giving face to Concubine Chun, and even tried to use her status as an elder to pressure others. As a result, her real aunt is gone. Do you still have the nerve to take advantage of a dead person?

Li Si'er's face was indeed pale and blue. She had never suffered such a big setback before. She said in a somewhat aggressive tone: "Why, can't Longkodo be called uncle by the Fourth Prince's concubine? Can't I be called aunt?"

Chang Ning raised his eyes at this time, as if he had just discovered someone here, gave her a straight look, looked her up and down, and sneered: "Who are you?"

"I..." Li Si'er held back his anger and uttered a few words through his teeth.

"I am Longkodo's wife."

"Nonsense! Come on, use a big stick to beat this liar who is swindling and pretending to be powerful! Any cat or dog can use the sign of Cheng'en Mansion! Longkodo's wife is obviously Hesheli, who do you think you are? Are you trying to fool me?"

Changning immediately raised his eyebrows and shouted harshly. Several servants nearby wanted to obey his orders and step forward to pull Li Si'er out.

Li Si'er became anxious, shook off the servant's hand, and cursed: "You are blind, Hesheli is such a coward, I am Longkodo's real wife! If you don't believe me, go ask him!"

Changning immediately threw the teacup in his hand away. With a "bang", the room fell silent.

Li Si'er also stopped throwing tantrums.

"Is Hesheli a coward? You'd better be careful with your words." Changning's tone was faint, but it made people feel a chill for some reason.

"You should know that the mother's family of the current crown prince is Hesheli! Empress Xiaochengren is Hesheli! How dare you slander the entire Hesheli family? You disrespect the crown prince and the emperor, and don't distinguish between superiors and subordinates. I think all of your nine clans, Li Si'er, are there any itchy necks, and you want to scratch them with a machete?"

After hearing Changning's words, who among the people present would not be afraid?

If he is given such a high hat, he will be skinned alive. In my heart, I secretly cursed Li Si'er for being too arrogant.

Li Si'er was a little flustered, but still resisted the pressure and refuted: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I slander the prince and Empress Xiaochengren? I didn't mean to be unequal. This Hesheli family is not the same as the prince's mother's family!"

Changning rolled his eyes and said, "I don't care whether you are a person of the same kind or not. I have already put a high hat on you. If you continue to act arrogantly, I will wipe out your entire clan."

"Everyone present here is a witness. I'm sure no one will forget what you just said with such confidence and force. I think I'd better go and see the emperor in person." Changning's few words scared everyone so much that their legs went limp.

Oh my god, what kind of trouble have they gotten themselves into?

Although Li Si'er was a little flustered, she still did not repent. She was just a concubine, how could she have the opportunity to see the emperor? Moreover, even if she could see the emperor, Longkodo could not?

Longkodo is the emperor’s cousin and brother-in-law!

Seeing her eyes rolling around, Chang Ning knew that she was holding back her fart, so he asked calmly, "Do you know why everyone calls me Concubine Chun?"

Li Si'er looked up at her and saw that she was sitting upright in the seat, calm and composed, with an air of demeanor that she could never imitate.

An unknown lady on the other side continued, "That's because the emperor was seriously ill, and Mrs. Chun's third brother was loyal and brave. He offered medicine in times of crisis and saved the emperor, which earned him honor for the whole family."

Hearing this, Li Si'er suddenly understood. She wanted to tell him that compared with a senior official of the imperial court who saved his life, what was the woman of his brother-in-law?

This was the first time for her. She was used to being arrogant with Longkodo's support. No one dared to give her face, so she became more and more courageous. She would visit every family to show off her power and take control of the ladies present. This was the first time she had the idea of ​​backing down.

But she couldn't open her mouth to apologize.

Chang Ning was not willing to pamper her, and was too lazy to give her time. He rubbed his waist, turned around and said to his second sister-in-law: "Second sister-in-law, I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back first. I have to go to the palace in the afternoon."

Upon hearing these words, Li Si'er's nature of seeking profit and avoiding harm finally awakened.

She was originally a dancer of lowly status. After being pampered for a few days, she became lawless, but she still remembered how to be servile.

Then, Changning saw her slightly adjusting the golden hairpin on her head, smiling: "Mrs. Chun, you are a royal descendant, of noble status, how can you care about such a small matter? How about I go back and sort out the gift list?"

Changning almost laughed. She was blatantly offering bribes, wasn't she? No wonder she was heard to be asking for money and property everywhere under the banner of Cheng En Gong. When someone came to her house to offer bribes, she accepted them all and even interfered in the affairs of the court. Longkodo let her do whatever she wanted.

How could Changning possibly covet her wealth? She exudes the air of a nouveau riche. The gold is so dazzling that she would feel dizzy if she looked at it for even a second.

"You should go back. There's no need for a gift list. People in the Fucha family are not that short-sighted."

Li Si'er didn't lose her temper after being scolded by her. After all, she was a dancer and her emotions changed very quickly.
