Xiao Yunzheng commented on this: "Who cares? She cries and makes a scene every day, and we are used to it. But you, why did you come all the way here? It's totally unnecessary."

Having said that, Nian Susu always believed that Wang Yuejiao was already a member of the Xiao family. If she got into trouble, the Xiao family would also be implicated, and she must not be left alone.

Besides, their marriage was arranged by His Majesty himself. How could it be so easy to divorce? Just don't ruin the reputation of the Xiao family.

General Xiao winked at Xiao Yunzheng and said angrily: "She is your sister-in-law after all, how can you talk like that!"

Xiao Yunzheng curled her lips and didn't refute, but she also didn't admit her mistake.

General Xiao explained to her: "It's because Jian Ting has stayed in Jiangnan for too long, Aunt Wang..." He stopped abruptly and looked at Nian Susu with an inexplicably guilty look in his eyes.

Nian Susu twitched his lips and complained in his heart: It seems that neither party wants to acknowledge this marriage. Even General Xiao does not regard Wang Yuejiao as his daughter-in-law, let alone others.

She pretended not to have heard anything, kept her expression calm, and waited for him to continue.

"Ahem..." General Xiao calmed down and continued, "Yue Jiao felt that Jian Ting had another woman outside, started a family in Jiangnan, and would never come back, so she wanted to divorce."

He felt embarrassed to say this.

Nian Susu sighed deeply. She already knew what was going on. Wang Yuejiao was just making excuses to get a divorce.

As an outsider, it was not right for her to interfere in other people's family affairs. Since she knew that it was Wang Yuejiao who was causing the trouble, there was no need to delve into it further. She comforted her with a few words and then went to the small garden with Xiao Yunzheng for a walk to get some fresh air.

Qingyu followed the two of them not too close but not too far away.

Enemies often meet in a narrow road. The Xiao Mansion is not big, but also not small, yet they actually met Wang Yuejiao.

Wang Yuejiao was teaching a maid from the Xiao Mansion a lesson.

The maid was kneeling on the ground with a pot of broken flowers beside her. There was a lot of mud on the hem of Wang Yuejiao's skirt. It was obvious that the maid accidentally bumped into Wang Yuejiao and got the mud on her skirt. Wang Yuejiao was furious.

"Do you know how expensive this skirt of mine is? I just made it a few days ago, and you've made it dirty today!" Wang Yuejiao pointed at the maid's nose and cursed.

The maid trembled, "Madam, please spare me, I didn't mean it, I will wash the clothes for you immediately and make sure they are as good as new!"

Wang Yuejiao was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger. She was so frustrated and furious that she said, "How can even a lowly servant go against me? I've had enough of this shabby place!"

She kicked the flowerpot and broke it into three pieces. One petal rolled along the cobblestone path to two pairs of embroidered shoes and was held by one of the pink, upturned shoes with pearls inlaid on it.

Wang Yuejiao looked up along the shoe and suddenly saw Nian Susu's face. Xiao Yunzheng beside her was glaring at her angrily.

Wang Yuejiao suddenly became timid.

"You are so arrogant! Even the General's Mansion bestowed by His Majesty is just a 'broken place' in Miss Wang's eyes. Does it have to be the Mingde Palace that can accommodate a giant Buddha like you?" Xiao Yunzheng said sarcastically.

Wang Yuejiao was so angry that her teeth were itching. Mingde Hall was the place for court meetings, and Xiao Yunxiao said that on purpose to make her feel uncomfortable.

The most important thing is that she called herself "Miss Wang", clearly denying her identity!

Although she didn't want to be the young lady of the Xiao family, she was still Xiao Jianting's legal wife in name. No matter what, as a sister-in-law, Xiao Yunzheng shouldn't speak rudely to her.

"Xiao Yunzheng, don't think that I won't hit you just because you are Xiao Jianting's sister! Humph!" Wang Yuejiao said angrily.

Xiao Yunzheng was not someone who could be easily bullied. She rolled up her sleeves and shouted at her, "Come on! Who's afraid of who?"

Nian Susu saw that something was not right and quickly put Xiao Yunzheng behind her. The next second, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

Qingyu had even pulled out a small part of the sword, and it seemed that with a single order from Nian Susu, Wang Yuejiao would be beheaded immediately.

"Qingyu, you..." Nian Susu put a finger on the back of his hand holding the hilt and pressed down. The sword was sheathed, but Qingyu quickly withdrew his hand as if it was burned by red charcoal.

Qingyu was extremely scared. If his master got to know about this, he would lose this hand.

Nian Susu waved his hand and said, "You are not needed here yet, please leave first."

Master Qingyu obeyed and retreated behind her without saying a word.

Wang Yuejiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She could still fight Xiao Yunzheng, but swords and knives are blind and she would be killed in one blow.

"Wang... Madam Xiao Shao." Nian Susu forced a smile, trying to comfort her: "I know you are full of resentment, but... the matter is done and there is no way to change it. We still have to live our lives, why don't you try to be more cheerful?"

Although Nian Susu admired Wang Yuejiao's rebellious spirit, given the current situation, marrying Xiao Jianting and then staying in peace in the Xiao Mansion as her young lady would be the best outcome.

At least Xiao Jianting didn't have that kind of intention towards her and wouldn't force her to do anything. At most, her status in the Xiao family would be lower. It was better than marrying an old man she didn't love and having to give birth to children for him!

Being rich, having a husband who is not at home, not having to have children, and not having to serve the parents-in-law, this is the ideal life for many people?

Nian Susu sighed helplessly. Wang Yuejiao still didn't experience enough, otherwise she wouldn't be dissatisfied with her current situation.

Wang Yuejiao snorted coldly and looked at her with contempt, "Nian Susu, you are very proud now, right? You must be very happy to see me living such a miserable life? Are you trying to show off to me?"

"That's right. You're going to be the Crown Princess. Of course you'll be happy to marry the person you love. You don't understand my feelings at all. What right do you have to persuade me to let it go? And what right do you have to accuse me from a high position?" Wang Yuejiao roared.

"Nervous." Nian Susu complained speechlessly and spread his hands: "Ok, I won't say anything more."

She took a few steps back, took Xiao Yunzheng's hand and was about to leave, but Wang Yuejiao didn't seem to intend to let her go. When she turned around, she rushed forward and slapped her.

Nian Susu was stunned and looked at Wang Yuejiao in disbelief with an angry face.

"No...are you sick?" Nian Susu rubbed his burning cheek.

Xiao Yunzheng was the first to react. Without saying anything, she slapped Wang Yuejiao back with even greater force than she had slapped her. Wang Yuejiao was so slapped that she turned half a circle and took two steps back.

Before Wang Yuejiao could stand firmly, she was slapped again, and this slap made her fall to the ground.

Nian Susu was stunned.

"Qingyu...you..."

Qingyu looked at Wang Yuejiao coldly, "Next time before you take action, consider your own strengths and weaknesses and whether you can afford to offend the Crown Princess."

He retreated behind Nian Susu and said with a folded hand, "Miss Nian, His Highness said that if anyone dares to touch you, I will pay them back double. Please rest assured, His Highness will help if there is any trouble."

Nian Susu smacked his lips, "It's great to have a backer."
