Noble Lady

then.

After the Crown Prince left, the Ninth Princess smashed a celadon teacup, a set of wine utensils, a two-handled vase, and several exquisite glass fruit plates, and paced around the room with an angry face.

"This Chen Mingxuan is really ungrateful. It's his honor that this princess has taken a liking to him!"

"He's so good, he actually fell in love with the daughter of a warrior. What's so good about a daughter raised by a rough man who wields swords and guns? She's as stupid as a pig. I just set up a trap and she was fooled. How can such a person compare to me?"

"The princess is a daughter of heaven, a daughter of a noble family. Why compare herself to the daughter of a warrior? How can she possibly be worthy? The entire general's mansion combined is not as valuable as one of the princess' fingers."

Aunt Qi, who was serving beside him, comforted him.

The Ninth Princess snorted, but continued to scold dissatisfiedly, "And the Crown Prince? He's only registered under the Queen's name, not the legitimate son who crawled out of the Queen's womb. What qualifications does he have to lecture me?"

"If he were truly as virtuous and kind as he pretends to be, why would he need to go around courting and winning over knowledgeable people?"

"Princess, be careful what you say!"

Aunt Qi quickly covered her mouth.

The Ninth Princess glared at Aunt Qi angrily, "Mmmmmm..." What are you trying to do, you bold servant?!

"My princess, you must not even think these words in your own chambers. The Crown Prince is the Crown Prince, the heir apparent to the throne, the future ruler. Princess, you must understand this."

……

Xue Chenyu didn't know what was happening in the palace.

After thinking about many things in the car and resting for a while, I returned to the He family.

When I came back, I learned that Ji Minrou had made a fuss again after lunch and was driven out by Dongyue and Yumei.

If she didn't know what was good for her and walked slower, she would probably get beaten.

This matter has to start from Ji Minrou's visit to He Ruyi.

Ji Minrou had met Liu in the morning, and they also agreed not to give Chunhua as a dowry to He Ruyi.

After lunch, Ji Minrou went to see He Ruyi and told her about the matter of accompanying the maid.

After saying this, she emphasized, "This is what my aunt wants, and I have also fought for it on your behalf."

"I understand. Thank you, cousin."

Although He Ruyi didn't like Ji Minrou's affair with her brother, seeing that she was going to help arrange the wedding, she didn't care as long as she could get married on time.

He Ruyi was naturally happy that Chunhua didn't go with her, because she had long since stopped wanting this girl.

Chunhua is such a big and strong girl, stupid and not smart. If you tell her anything to do, you have to explain it to her in detail, otherwise she will have no idea where to go.

Although Qiuyue came into the mansion later and had been with her for less than a year, she was quite smart and would give her advice.

If it weren't for her idea, she wouldn't be able to climb up the Cui family's ladder now.

But she would not tell anyone else about this. This kind of thing would be between her and Qiuyue.

Oh, Chunhua does know something, but her stupid brain only knows to go east if she is told to, and go to the western suburbs without any thought at all. This kind of person is useless and boring to have around.

"Then mother, please tell me who will be my dowry. There should be at least two maids in the dowry. If you only bring one, it will be ridiculous to tell others."

"Of course, your aunt has thought of everything you can think of. I have also thought of it for you. Your aunt means that He Jixiang will be your dowry."

He Ruyi's expression suddenly changed, "No, I don't agree!"

A sharp voice came out, like a chicken with its neck strangled.

"Cousin, why did mother let that lowly concubine's daughter be my dowry? We have other girls in the family. This concubine's daughter was born to a concubine who is not worthy of being seen in public. Bringing her away will only bring shame to our family."

Ji Minrou had long guessed that she would object, but she didn't expect such a big reaction.

However, she still controlled her temper and patiently advised, "Aunt has thought of all that you said, but what she meant is that although He Jixiang is a concubine's daughter, she is still a member of the He family."

"And you know she's timid and has been manipulated since she was a child. Plus, she's quite pretty. Even if she goes to the Cui family, she won't dare go west if you tell her to. She won't dare disobey you at all. Isn't she better than any other girl?"

He Ruyi thought about it and felt that it made sense.

The maids in the mansion are indeed not as pretty as He Jixiang.

She looked timid, but she did have some seductive qualities. Even if she couldn't control them, she still had her mother, who would ensure that He Jixiang would never escape from their clutches in his life.

They talked for a while before Ji Minrou left contentedly and went to Furongju.

Ji Minrou thought that now that she had the jurisdiction, she could act as she pleased in Furongju.

She only brought a small piece of grass with her and went to Furongju, saying that she wanted to meet Xue Chenyu.

Yumei opened the door for her and invited her in for tea.

Dong Yue had no patience to look at her. She kept saying she was innocent and had no choice but to go to the He family. But secretly, she had been involved with He Minzhi for a long time. She felt that even one look at her was dirty.

Unexpectedly, Ji Minrou said after a few words that she wanted to take He Jixiang away.

Dong Yue sneered: "The fourth lady was left behind by our daughter to recuperate. It was you who forced someone to stab her neck with a hairpin. Miss Ji, have you forgotten so quickly?"

Ji Minrou had done that kind of thing but didn't feel guilty. Instead, she said nonchalantly, "I've already told my cousin that it was all a misunderstanding. How could I be so cruel as to force my fourth sister to commit suicide?"

"I don't care whether there are misunderstandings between you cousins, but the fourth girl was left behind by my daughter. You are just a cousin temporarily staying in the He family. You have no right to control my daughter."

Dongyue was sarcastic and didn't give her any face at all.

"You!" Ji Minrou's face turned red with anger.

"Could it be that Xue Chenyu still wants to control the girls of the He family? Although she is the fourth sister's sister-in-law, the fourth sister still has her legitimate mother and eldest legitimate brother above her. How can she have the final say?"

"Just because you say you can't control something means you can't control it. Don't take it as an excuse. Use your little ability on Lord He. It won't work on us."

Yumei's disdainful look almost made Ji Minrou faint.

"You, what do you mean by that?" This little girl couldn't possibly know anything, right?

Xiaocao tugged at her arm embarrassedly and said, "Let's go. Don't talk about it here."

The result was a fierce look from Ji Minrou, "Why, you want to stand on their side too?"

Xiaocao knew best how shameless she was. There was no point in saying anything, but she didn't want to be embarrassed, so she simply lowered her head and kept silent.

"Why, my cousin, you are such a smart person, but you can't understand what a little maid like me says? You know what you do very well. Don't think that everyone is like you." She is eager to be someone's maid.

Dong Yue: "Yes, the Fourth Miss is a good girl, don't think of mistreating her. It's not your turn to make the decision here, leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Dongyue and Yumei started swinging their fists while talking.

Ji Minrou was still unconvinced and thought that she was a big deal just because she was the housekeeper. However, Xiaocao was a perceptive person. When it came to this, she dragged the person away regardless of the consequences.

As Ji Minrou was being dragged, she said harshly, "Just wait, there will be such a good time."

Yumei pouted at Ji Minrou's back, "If you have the guts, don't leave. I'll beat you to a pulp."
