Rebirth of a Lost Nation: Princess, Please Respect Yourself

Manager Hai climbed up from the ground, baring his teeth and cursing, "How dare a foreign princess come to my Grand Tutor's Mansion and act wildly? Do you really think the Grand Tutor's Mansion is made of paper?"

"You only dare to speak because so many guards are here to give you courage. You are really a bully." Jiang Lige laughed sarcastically. "I don't know whether the Grand Tutor's Mansion is made of paper or not, but after I send you to the King of Hell today, I will definitely burn a paper brain of yours. It can be regarded as a blessing for your next life!"

The steward blushed after being exposed. "You are relying on your status as a princess to do evil things and speak vulgarly. A woman like you will never get married!"

"Excuse me, but a princess's status is always more valuable than a steward like you. A steward can still use his power to bully others, so why shouldn't I do the same? As for whether my words are nice or not, that's none of your business. If your words weren't full of shit and might disturb the Grand Tutor's happy event, I wouldn't have lowered myself to argue with you!"

Manager Hai's face turned purple after being scolded by Jiang Lige, but he didn't dare to do anything to Jiang Lige. After all, the princess in front of him was notoriously fierce and he couldn't afford to offend her!

Manager Hai kept cursing “you, you, you” for a long time before he took a step back and cursed at Jiang Lige.

"Stupid, ignorant woman...ah!"

Before Manager Hai could finish his curse, Ning Yunxiao, who was standing in front of Jiang Lige, suddenly attacked. He grabbed his outstretched finger and broke it with a backhand flick.

"You can scold Princess Zhaohua?"

Ning Yunxiao had been tolerant just now, and Jiang Lige had not expected Ning Yunxiao to stand up for him, so at this moment he was stunned like everyone else.

Gu Fan, who had been under pressure, finally straightened his back and kicked the manager in the chest.

"You can also scold my prince's wife?"

Jiang Lige, who was inexplicably called "Crown Prince's Consort", changed her previous tough attitude and glared at Gu Fan with a blush, but did not refute him seriously.

Manager Hai was so distressed that tears streamed down his face. He accused, "Princess Zhaohua came all the way to the Gu Mansion to act wildly, and I can't say anything?"

"That's hard to say." This time, Ning Yunxiao responded straightforwardly, "Don't say that the princess's scolding is justified. Even if it's not, what does it matter?"

"..."

Manager Hai is a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong. Seeing Ning Yunxiao becoming more assertive, he didn't dare to speak.

Manager Hai didn't dare to say anything back. Ning Yunxiao looked indifferent and calm, not like the person involved. The guards didn't know what to do when they saw this, and just maintained their previous posture and remained alert.

Therefore, at the main gate of the Gu Mansion, a group of people formed two groups in a posture of mutual vigilance, but no one spoke, and they confronted each other in silence.

Ning Yunxiao had some concerns, but Jiang Lige did not. He took out a post from his arms and smashed it against Manager Hai's face, specifically choosing the swollen side of his face.

"This note was specially sent to the palace by the third branch of your mansion. Since the steward Hai is illiterate, we found someone in the mansion who can read and make decisions to identify it. Your Highness is being lenient, but I am not. Today, this princess has filed a case with the palace with this note before leaving the palace. If you can't explain the injustice of this fake note, there is no need to hold your banquet!"

So tough!

At this moment, Gu Fan just wanted to kowtow to his own Crown Prince's Consort. The palace cannot be without a Crown Prince's Consort!

After Jiang Lige said this, Butler Hai had no choice but to bite the bullet and invite the master of the house.

Although Jiang Lige spoke harshly, he was actually considering that the Gu family was Ning Yunxiao's maternal family. During the waiting period, he did not really block the door of the Gu Mansion to prevent anyone from entering or leaving. Instead, he dragged Ning Yunxiao onto the carriage and waited, which was considered to give the Gu family enough face.

The Gu family didn't keep them waiting for long. After only half a cup of tea, they saw the third master Gu Yanru hurried out to greet them.

Gu Yanru must have learned what happened from the servants. He bowed to the two of them apologetically and said, "The servants in the mansion were rude and wronged the prince and the princess. I, Gu, would like to apologize on their behalf."

Ning Yunxiao had an indifferent expression, neither accepting nor rejecting.

Just saying sorry but not inviting them in, what sincerity...

It seems not enough!

Realizing this, Jiang Lige became less friendly.

"Master Gu, are you saying that the post has been verified for authenticity?"

Gu Yanru chuckled, "The note was written by my daughter Wang Xian, and it's confirmed to be correct. However, I didn't tell my family before sending it out, so this misunderstanding occurred."

"Since it's a misunderstanding, let's clarify it. It's getting late, we should go and celebrate Master Gu's birthday."

Gu Yanru's face froze when he heard this, and he said in embarrassment: "Wang Xian didn't inform the host before sending the invitation, so there are no empty seats at the banquet..."

"It's okay, just squeeze in."

After Jiang Lige finished speaking, he jumped off the carriage and walked towards Gu Mansion. Gu Yanru, who was blocked from speaking, had no choice but to step forward and block his way.

"The Crown Prince and the Princess are of noble status, so it's not appropriate for them to share a table with others. How about waiting for two days and I'll host a banquet to apologize to you two."

"In the final analysis, today's intention is to not let us enter this door!"

Jiang Lige's face darkened as he was stopped. He no longer gave Gu Yanru face and scolded him:

"According to seniority, the prince should call you Third Uncle. For the prince's sake, this princess has given you enough respect. If you don't appreciate it, don't blame me, Zhao Hua, for my harsh words!

First, Princess Zhao, Gu, is the legitimate daughter of the Gu family. As the maternal family, the Gu family has never taken care of the prince since he was a child. Even when the prince came to celebrate his grandfather's birthday, they spoke ill of him and refused him entry. This is heartless and unkind!

Secondly, even without any relatives to support him, the Crown Prince is also Mr. Gu Sanye's benefactor! When Mr. Gu was in trouble in Jingzhou, it was the Crown Prince who ran around and saved your entire family. Not only do the Gu family members not appreciate the Crown Prince's kindness, but now they want to kick their savior out of the house. This is repaying kindness with enmity and is unjust!

Thirdly, the invitations sent by the Crown Prince and me were sent by your Gu family, not something we begged for or stole. Yet, we are being treated this way. Is this the Gu family's way of entertaining guests? This is disrespectful! How dare such an unkind, unrighteous, and impolite family claim to be a clean family? It's simply a joke!"

Gu Yanru's face flushed red from Jiang Lige's scolding, but he had no way to retort, so he could only smile and say, "Please forgive me."

Jiang Lige really couldn't understand what was wrong with the Gu family. Now that things had come to this, they should have invited them in a friendly manner just for the sake of the Gu family's reputation!

Unfortunately, this family is more stubborn than a donkey and won’t listen to any words or tricks!

Jiang Lige felt that his passion had reached a critical point. Just as he was about to lose his temper, Ning Yunxiao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

"If you can't get along with your parents, you can't be a human being; if you don't obey your parents, you can't be a son. My mother was born in the Gu family, and as a son, I should be filial to her. Today is Grand Tutor Gu's birthday, which is a happy occasion. Let's put everything aside for now. But there is one thing I have to say. Yun Xiao must remind your family: there is a limit to tolerance and filial piety. It will never happen again or again."
