Chapter 118 I Can’t Bear to See a Beauty Being Wronged
Ning Xi felt good when she saw the other party being so polite.
"Yue Xiuzhu is the daughter of your stepmother, and your stepmother is extremely kind-hearted. She treats you and your biological sister Yue Mingzhu better than her biological daughter. However, I heard that this was just an act."
"Over the years, the Yue family has only heard about the proud daughter Yue Xiuzhu, but few people have mentioned the real eldest daughter of the Yue family, Yue Mingzhu. Your biological sister is so unknown that it seems like she doesn't exist."
"My stepmother also wanted to deliberately raise her to be useless, so I couldn't help but sympathize with you when I saw that a beauty like you was not only deceived by your stepmother's kind face and hypocritical heart, but also had to compensate for the cost of your willfulness to your unreasonable sister."
Ning Xi looked at Yue Zheng with pity, "I always hate seeing beautiful women being wronged."
"..." Everyone twitched their mouths. After saying so much emotionally, the last sentence was the key.
Yue Zheng had the urge to laugh. This young prince Ning was so funny. He actually slapped his stepmother in the face so openly. He even accepted being called a "beauty".
The gentle and beautiful woman sitting behind him looked up at Ning Xi, with a hint of inquiry and affection in her eyes.
"Ahem, thank you for your concern, young prince. Xiuzhu's matter is related to the face of our Yue family. Anyway, I hope that Xiao Wang will bear with me!" Yue Zheng did not refute Ning Xi's words, and changing the topic was regarded as acquiescence.
If it weren't for his grandfather's protection and his own success, the position of young master would have been replaced long ago.
A flash of light flashed in Ning Xi's eyes. It seemed that the Yue family was really not that harmonious. This was a good thing for her cousin. Yue Zheng might be able to win over him.
"Haha, I have always been very tolerant of beauties."
Ning Xi smiled heartily and said with a ruffian smile: "Tonight you host a banquet for me at Fu Zhaozhai, and then prepare three pieces of spiritual jade. Naturally, I will not go to the Yue family to pursue anything."
Yue Zheng's thoughts changed and he said, "Okay, then I'll ask the young prince to reward you!"
Concubine Yue's always calm and gentle face darkened, and she couldn't help but say: "Little Prince Ning, you can eat whatever you want, but don't talk nonsense. My sister-in-law doesn't treat Zheng'er and Mingzhu like you said. Like."
"Concubine Yue is not that Madam Yue, so how do you know that this king is lying?"
"There is no fire without fire, and I have long realized that people's hearts are separated from each other. Moreover, I just said that I just heard about it, and I did not think that the imperial concubine's sister-in-law is that kind of person. How come the imperial concubine is so eager to come out and explain that she feels like she is trying to deceive others. !" Ning Xi shouted back directly.
"You, you are so presumptuous!" Concubine Yue Gui was also angry. She looked at Yue Zheng and saw that his expression changed.
Ning Xi suddenly looked aggrievedly at the emperor who had been silent and had a calm expression, and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, have I offended the imperial concubine? Will she want to punish me?"
"..." Concubine Yue simply wanted to tear Ning Xi's mouth apart.
"You know you're afraid now?" The emperor rolled his eyes at Ning Xi angrily, "Didn't you say it with great enthusiasm just now?"
"I know I was wrong, and I will never tell the truth again!" Ning Xi seemed to understand, lowering his head like a child who had done something wrong.
"..." The people present twitched their mouths. Prince Ning was just blinded by this. It is estimated that rumors about the kind-faced and hypocritical mistress of the Yue family will soon start to spread in Kyoto.
The emperor smiled helplessly and said: "Who told you not to tell the truth in the future, but you must learn what to say on any occasion and don't lose your sense of proportion again."
"Yes, I understand!" Ning Xi touched her neck as if embarrassed.
Jing Ruofeng turned his head and said to Concubine Yue: "How can a child count if he is ignorant? Concubine, don't take it to heart."
