Song Ruozhen never expected that her gossip would involve Chu Junting. He truly deserves to be the ideal husband of a noble lady. Jiang Qinglan also hopes to marry him.

Chu Muyao hadn't expected this either, and her expression changed from speechless to utterly disgusted. "She really has a dream. Doesn't she look at herself as an ordinary woman? Let alone the Third Prince, she's not even worthy of the Second Prince!"

Song Ruozhen: "..." I wonder if Prince Che will vomit blood if he hears this.

"You know how many suitable candidates Her Majesty the Empress has chosen to propose marriage for the Prince of Chu. Although I have never met Song Ruozhen, I understand that someone who can be valued so highly by the Prince of Chu must be no ordinary person."

Everyone in the palace praised her as a rare beauty, not to mention that she was also skilled in metaphysics and her medical skills were extraordinary.

Think about it carefully... can you really compare to him?

Jiang Luxue looked serious. Ever since she entered the royal family, she had learned that many things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

His Highness the Prince of Chu is not a man who is blinded by beauty. The fact that he likes Song Ruozhen and is willing to do so many things proves that Song Ruozhen must have many qualities that other girls cannot match!

Qinglan never considers these things; she always thinks she is the best. If she doesn't change this personality, she will suffer a great loss sooner or later.

Jiang Qinglan felt embarrassed by these words and her face turned pale. She said, "The most important thing for a young lady is to be a good wife and mother and take care of everything for her husband. Why should she be a doctor?"

Not to mention metaphysical arts, which are all so mystical and nonsensical; she might as well become a nun!

Sister, you don't understand at all. Men will only be attracted to a woman like this for a while, but they will never really like her. Before long, the King of Chu will find her boring.

She might have used some despicable method to make the King of Chu fall for her, but once she's exposed, she'll be doomed!

We've seen these underhanded tactics before!

Jiang Luxue remained silent. In any case, since childhood, as long as Jiang Qinglan had made up her mind, no matter what others said, it was useless.

"I didn't know that my sister-in-law's younger sister is a fortune teller. She can even predict exactly when I will grow tired of my wife."

As soon as Chu Junting and Song Jingshen entered the shop, they heard Jiang Qinglan's arrogant words, which were full of belittling of Song Ruozhen. Naturally, their expressions darkened.

Jiang Luxue and the other woman were surprised to run into the King of Chu, and their expressions changed instantly.

"King Chu, I am truly sorry. My sister spoke nonsense for a moment. I hope you will be magnanimous and not hold it against her," Jiang Luxue said hurriedly.

Jiang Luxue quickly bowed as well, "Your Highness, I did not mean it."

"Every word you uttered was deliberately belittling and slandering me. And you still say it wasn't intentional?" Chu Junting's dark eyes gleamed with a cold light, and his voice was utterly devoid of warmth.

"I don't know what remarkable abilities Miss Jiang has to be so arrogant and make such random comments," Song Jingshen said coldly, but quickly revealed a look of realization. "However... I can understand."

Jiang Qinglan was somewhat puzzled. Why did Song Jingshen say he could understand her?

"I heard that you've recently been determined to marry into the Xiao Prince's mansion, competing with your own sister for a husband. My sister has always been abiding by etiquette, and her temperament is naturally incompatible with yours. It's understandable that you don't like her."

After all, we look down on you just as much.

The moment Song Jingshen opened his mouth, its destructive power exploded.

Jiang Qinglan was clearly surprised that Song Jingshen knew about this, and her face instantly turned red. She didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did, but it sounded very unpleasant coming from other people's mouths.

She was clearly there to help her sister secure favor with the emperor!

She wasn't competing with her sister for her brother-in-law at all. If she hadn't helped, her sister might not have been able to keep her position as a future queen!

Chu Muyao couldn't help but chuckle at Song Jingshen's sarcastic words; she knew this guy was no ordinary person.

"Sister-in-law, your fourth brother is just as you said, his information network is exceptionally good. I only had a guess because I happened to overhear him, but I didn't expect him to know it right away. That's just too amazing!"

Before anything is confirmed, the Jiang family would certainly not leak the news, and so far we haven't heard much about it, yet Song Jingshen seems to know so much about it.

"He is quite familiar with the information from various sources."

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly. Running a shop makes it easy to find out all sorts of information, but her fourth brother hadn't paid much attention to these things before.

He probably knows these things now because she is going to marry a prince, so he went out of his way to find out about the situation of each prince's mansion.

At this moment, Song Ruozhen and Chu Muyao stopped hiding and came out from behind the cabinet.

When Jiang Luxue and her sister saw that Song Ruozhen was also there, their already pale faces turned completely ashen.

This is speaking ill of the person in front of them!

It's likely that everything they said before was overheard, leaving them with absolutely no room for explanation.

Although Song Ruozhen has not yet married Chu Junting, she is undoubtedly the most popular among all the princesses!

“Miss Song, I am truly sorry for what happened today. My sister is young and envious of your marriage to the King of Chu, which is why she spoke without thinking. I will definitely teach her a lesson when I get back and never let her talk nonsense again. I hope you will not be angry.”

Next month is your wedding day with the King of Chu, and we will be sisters-in-law then, so we must get along well.

Jiang Luxue stepped forward, her face full of smiles, and spoke apologetically.

Seeing Jiang Qinglan blocking her way with no intention of apologizing, Song Ruozhen looked at Jiang Luxue in front of her with a complicated expression in her eyes.

No wonder he was able to raise a younger sister like Jiang Qinglan.

Not only did the whole family spoil her, but even she, as the older sister, was spoiled.

If she were to hold a grudge about this relationship with her sister-in-law, it would be petty of her, and it wouldn't sound good if word got back to the palace.

Sure enough, none of these women in the royal family are easy to deal with!

"Why bother taking him back to teach him a lesson?" Chu Junting said indifferently. "Drag him away and slap him twenty times!"

Yunyang immediately stepped forward, pulled Jiang Qinglan along, and prepared to leave.

When Jiang Qinglan saw that Chu Junting was about to slap her in the face, she wondered how swollen her face would be after twenty slaps.

"Sister, please save me!"

However, seeing that Jiang Qinglan wouldn't leave, Yunyang raised his hand and slapped her.

"Snapped!"

Jiang Qinglan didn't even have a chance to say her second sentence before she was stunned by a slap.

Jiang Luxue was even more astonished, but she understood Chu Junting's temper; those who offended him never had a good ending. As for asking him to show leniency...

Even if King Xiao were here right now, he wouldn't offend King Chu for Qinglan's sake.

Yunyang showed no mercy when he started, delivering twenty loud slaps.
