The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

At this time, a group of Jiang family members, led by Jiang Zhixu and Qin, hurried to the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. When they saw Jiang Wantang, they were stunned for a moment.

Among them, the one who reacted most obviously was Prime Minister Jiang Zhixu.

The Prime Minister, who was always as calm as a mountain, staggered forward a few steps, then took a few steps back, and almost lost his balance.

His sharp eyes were first filled with fear, then instantly became a bit sinister, and his hands under his wide sleeves were clenched into fists.

Jiang Wantang noticed all his emotional changes. In her previous life, he had reacted in the same way when she returned home.

At that time, she didn't take it seriously.

Now it seems that the way he looks at me is not right...

She saw hatred in those complicated eyes.

That's right, hatred.

Jiang Zhixu looked at his daughter with a complicated expression.

After not seeing her for ten years, her appearance had changed just as he had expected. She was exactly the same as the familiar face in his memory, or even more so.

It was a face that appeared countless times in his dreams at midnight.

Especially those watery peach blossom eyes. When they looked at him, the shadow reflected in them was like an evil ghost coming to take his life.

Perhaps, he shouldn't have been soft-hearted and shown mercy back then...

The father and daughter looked at each other, neither of them spoke.

Qin took a few steps forward and asked doubtfully, "Are you... Tang'er?"

"Yes."

Jiang Wantang withdrew his gaze and looked indifferently at Qin, who was dressed in gorgeous purple clothes and looked elegant and noble.

Qin's appearance was not outstanding, but she had a delicate and pretty look, and with proper maintenance, the years had not left many traces on her face.

Qin enthusiastically stepped forward and tried to shake Jiang Wantang's hand, but the latter calmly took a step back, avoiding her touch.

Jiang Wantang bowed and said calmly, "Tang'er, greetings to father and mother."

Qin Shi seemed unaware of this and still enthusiastically reached out her hand to help her up, her eyes full of love: "Tang'er, get up quickly. You're glad to be back. We're all family, so there's no need to be so polite."

"Let me see you," she said, carefully examining Jiang Wantang from head to toe. Tears welled in her eyes, and her voice choked with emotion. "My dear child, I've finally got you back."

"Yes, Second Miss, Madam has been thinking about you every day these years. She always has trouble sleeping and cries whenever she mentions you. The Prime Minister does the same." Nanny Li said loudly behind her.

As soon as she said this, Qin took out her handkerchief and wiped the seemingly inconspicuous tears from the corners of her eyes. She looked like a loving mother, which was very touching.

Jiang Wantang sneered inwardly, her eyes as pure as water as she spoke innocently, "Is that so? If you're reluctant to let go, then why did Mom and Dad send Tang'er to the mountain village in the first place?"

"Why have you never visited Tang'er in the past ten years?"

"I thought Mom and Dad had long forgotten Tang'er."

The beauty's eyes were red, and she looked weak yet tough, which made me feel pity for her.

One can't help but feel compassion.

Oh my god, are there really parents in this world who abandon their own daughter to raise her on a farm in the mountains and ignore her for ten years?!

The onlookers were in an uproar.

"How cruel! After all, he's your own flesh and blood. Not only did you send him to a farm in the mountains, but you didn't even bother to care for him for ten years!"

"I can't believe it! Prime Minister Jiang and his wife are usually so gentle and kind, but their hearts are actually so cold and hard!"

"Yes, look at this. Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion is dressed in gorgeous clothes. Even the maids are dressed much more luxuriously than this Second Young Lady..."

"I've always heard that Prime Minister Jiang favors the eldest daughter, born to his first wife. Now it seems that he's more than partial, he's downright biased. They're both his own flesh and blood, yet he's inviting guests and throwing a grand banquet to celebrate the eldest daughter's birthday, yet he's completely indifferent to his other daughter, who's been abandoned in the wilds. It's truly eye-opening!"

"Prime Minister Jiang has acted so cold-bloodedly that I will definitely report him to the court. He is a beast in human form. It's better not to attend the banquet today. Humph!" An old minister with a white beard said this and left in a huff.

"Yes, yes, it's so cruel!"

"..."

Everyone around was pointing fingers at the Prime Minister and his wife, and even the entire Prime Minister's Mansion.

Jiang Zhixu's clenched fists creaked, but he could only hold back and not lose his temper.

Jiang Wantang's seemingly light words were undoubtedly a slap in his face and the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion in front of everyone.

Qin kept explaining to everyone that Jiang Wantang was weak and sickly when he was young and difficult to raise, so the master insisted that he should be sent to the mountains to be raised until he was sixteen years old before he could return home.

But no one present was a fool, and Jiang Wantang's miserable appearance had already made people have a preconceived notion.

Therefore, no matter what she said, not many people believed her.

"enough!"

"Since you're back, come into the mansion first. What's the point of making so much noise outside?" Jiang Zhixu shouted at Qin with a gloomy face.

Jiang Wantang laughed. This was a veiled criticism, blaming her for being ignorant!

Afterwards, Jiang Zhixu had to suppress his anger and go to invite all the guests back to the banquet to drink.

Jiang Wantang's sudden appearance caught them off guard.

Qin knew that Jiang Zhixu was very unhappy at the moment. In a hurry, she glared at Li Ma who was standing beside her and blamed her for her incompetence.

Nanny Li was trembling with fear.

"Tang'er, you must have been tired after the long journey. Let's go into the mansion first." Qin turned around and said to Jiang Wantang with a smile.

The latter nodded obediently: "Okay."

Although Qin still smiled when she treated Jiang Wantang, there was a bit of stiffness and reluctance in her expression.

After the banquet started, Jiang Wanfu, dressed up in her best, arrived late.

She had originally planned to be the finale today and dazzle everyone.

"The young lady is here!"

Following a loud shout from the servant, Jiang Wanfu walked gracefully into the banquet hall.

She was wearing a fiery red chiffon dress, with gorgeous makeup and a hair full of glittering pearls and jade. She looked extremely luxurious, like a proud and priceless golden peacock.

This formed a sharp contrast with Jiang Wantang, who was dressed in plain white, without any makeup or any hairpins or accessories.

Just by comparing the two of them, the gap is very obvious.

The former's gorgeousness becomes a foil and becomes vulgar.

The latter, on the other hand, is made to appear even more holy and unattainable, like a fairy in the clouds who is untainted by the world and is unique and independent.

As soon as she appeared, the beauty that Jiang Wanfu, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, had been proud of for more than ten years was instantly reduced to a foil and she was completely defeated.

Jiang Wanfu walked forward with her head held high as usual at a banquet, and the smile on her lips widened as she looked at the full house of guests.

She has a bright, generous, and stunningly beautiful demeanor.

She thought to herself: As expected, many young men from aristocratic families have come. When I show off my charm, they will all fall at the feet of me, the most beautiful woman in the capital.

Unfortunately, I am the white moonlight that you can’t have!

However, when she was about to reach the main seat in the hall, the surroundings were still quiet.

There were no cheers and admiration that she was used to.

When she lowered her eyes, she found that all the envy, jealousy, praise and admiration in the past were gone.

When Jiang Wanfu looked at the place where those gazes were directed, her pupils shrank sharply.

The immense anger and unwillingness burned her heart, bringing unspeakable heat and pain. Her hands clenched tightly under her wide sleeves, and her long nails dug into her palms, oozing blood.

It’s Jiang Wantang!

The bitch Jiang Wantang is back!
