-------------
Yan Yao Yao carefully scrutinizing the stunning woman in front of her, relief can be seen at her face but instantly replace by a magnanimous expression.
It's better that this face was given to that "bastard prince", another beauty is eliminated in obtaining her beloved general, but her gaze suddenly stunned upon looking at her wrist.
The thing that gave her shock, is the bracelet that lightly peeking at her silver robes. Worn by her fair hand, the jade in red gave an inexplicably charm, that slowly enticing her heart to snatch. Jealousy and envy is evident at her eyes, if not for her personal servant, she will arrogantly ask for the jade. She believes that only her, is suitable to wear exquisite treasures.
Su Qian Meng deliberately teasing the spoiled princess, she can see how her bracelet draw her attention. She can only smirk at the successful provocation, such an immature brat, exposing her inner thoughts for everyone to see.
" this imperial princess is wondering whose commoner is dare to enter the imperial palace?" She overbearingly ask
The girl in front of her only naively smile not understanding the insult at her voice, she elegantly bow " this commoner is Su Qian Meng, qie have only recently entered the Duan Wangfu"
Lin Mama respectfully bow but her voice is monotone " Greetings 3rd Princess, this servant was personally asked by Duan Wangye to accompany duan wangfei "
Yan Yao Yao, only focus her attention at the silver robed woman and never care at the servant by her side, never in her wildest dream to think that 2nd brother will let Lin Mama served the unfavor wife. Afterall, Lin Mama is one of the closest aides of the late empress, no one in the palace ,even her concubine mother dare to make things difficult for this old servant
She remembered her scolding
" mistreat anyone but make an exemption to that old lady, "
"Why mother?, you are the most favored consort. Fuhuang dotes on me the most "
Her consort mother gently caress her face " Yao-er, there are things that are not what it seems in the surface. Don't cross her path, its better for you to avoid meeting her"
Remembering the time when she deliberately punish Lin Mama, in the next day she was food poisoned and her mother cryingly pleaded to never do the same again, even her doting fuhuang did not visit her.
She developed some trauma upon meeting this old lady but for today, she harden her heart, she cannot let the little commoner see her weakness.
She arrogantly lift her chin " this imperial princess be forgiven jie jie's poor eyesight for not knowing the new acquire meimei is the one in front of me ".
Lin Mama coldly look at the attitude of this brat princess, but Su Qian Meng held her hand and gently squeeze it.
" imperial princess must not blame oneself, it was not imperial princess fault to be blind and be ignorant of the news. Title is just an empty word, this commoner only fortune is to be wedded to Duan Wangye, being a part of imperial household brings joy to this commoner soul. Even the heavenly emperor personally bestow this commoner to Duan Wangye referring me as a talented, benevolent and a woman worthy for his highness " she humbly answered there is no haughtiness in her voice.
Her behavior is a deep contrast to the bratty princess, even the servants that are carefully listening cannot help but to shake their heads.
Yan yao yao tightly grip her silk handkerchief, "mei mei is truly live up to the expectation of fuhuang, imperial household must create a harmonious relationship to one another, forgo the formalities you can call me jie jie ". She said through her gritted teeth.
Su Qian Meng appeared to be in joy but instantly replaced by sorrow, her doe eyes sadly look at the floor " this commoner doesn't dare, imperial princess body is like a heavenly jade, carefully treasured inside the imperial palace, this lowly one cannot freely act according to imperial princess request and this commoner is worried if what would the other noble lady might think to the imperial princess " she nervously answered while playing her beautiful fingers.
Yan Yao Yao, can't help but twitch her eyebrows. This woman is truly shameless, proclaiming herself as an esteem woman personally pick by fuhuang, blocking any insult. "Mei mei is joking, who would dare to talk behind jie jie' back and to the imperial relationship with
mei mei "
She immediately lift her stunning face, tears are threatening to fall making her doe eyes glimmer.
" Then mei mei will not hold one self, mei mei will not hesitate to share our sister relationship, jie jie can punish them if someone make fun of our harmonious relationship. Mei mei is truly grateful for heaven's mercy. " her voice is so sweet and her smile is like a child recently given her favorite candy, but people were failed to see the cunning glint in her eyes.
Yan Yao Yao almost vomited blood, her irritation slowly creeping out. She was almost ready to attack this woman. But a light chuckle made her to restore her calmness, she knew very well the owner of the voice
Her elegant face restored and lovingly call " 4th brother ". An elegant man steadily approach them.
Yan Xiao Mo return her smile and direct his gaze at the little fox in front of him, he have heard everything, especially the way she played to his 3rd sister. He have known that from the start the 3rd princess was not her opponent.
Yan Yao Yao took the chance and spoiledly complain to her brother " 3rd brother have not heard but this princess is persuading for sister in law to call me jie jie and forgo the formalities between us but, " she helplessly sigh
She pitifully look at Su Qian Meng " mei mei seems to like calling herself a commoner, jie jie heart ache for her after all she is now a part of the imperial household."
Su qian meng can see how the brat princess elegantly wipe her crocodile tears! Being a part of imperial household is very complicated, she can be a successful drama actress in the 21st century. What a two - faced brat, using a white lotus facade to earn pity?, Su Qian Meng mockingly look at her poor performance.
Yan Xiao Mo, already knew this act of his spoiled sister. Able to manipulate the words from mouth is a technique she learned from their mother. He can only support what his sister started.
" you are now Duan Wangfei, a part of an imperial household, sister in law must not forget the gap between the imperial descendants to the common
people " the 4th prince indifferently reprimanding her. His gentle and scholarly aura was instantly vanish.
The servants can only sympathize to the Duan Wangfei, they have heard how much she suffered in her maiden household and now being scolded by her husband family.
They expect for her to cry or to hide behind Lin Mama but she confusedly look straight at Yan Xiao Mo, her doe eyes doesn't held any guilt but only a bottomless abyss.
" your majesty, As what I have said Duan Wamgfei for me is only a title given to me upon marrying to Duan Wangfu. This lowly one will never be ashamed to call one self as a commoner. I have witness their suffering and humiliation yet they are the one who should be treated as the most important part of our society."
" Every noble household needs lowly servants to clean, to feed them and do their dirty works, without them how will our dynasty works? " she innocently ask
" Even the imperial princess golden shoes were made with intricate details but how many sleepless nights of common women were spend in a single shoe, every rare materials were exchange of their pitiful life, they hunt the ingredients of every delicacy we eat without caring for their own safety. This lowly one is happy beyond anything upon receiving the blessing of being a part of imperial household but-" she gently smile
" having a noble birth is no different from being a commoner, this lowly one grew up interacting with the lowly servants to my maiden household and never have a chance to feel the privilege of being a di daughter. I have seen their suffering, tears and
grievance ".
She never forget to put dirty water and put all the blame to that disgusting father of her.
" imperial princess must have heard wrong, but meimei love to call you jie jie but mei mei only want assurance not to stain jie jie name to noble women ".
Yan Xiao Mo can't help but to praise his sister in law, her eloquent tongue, smartly turn the situation in her favor. He can proudly admit his defeat to this cunning fox, its a pity this woman belongs to that "demon prince "
Su qian Meng goal is turn the table in her side, but never to expect that after this event, her name and her words will be spread from all corners of the kingdom, gaining the heart of all commoners and pledge to support her, but this will be known in the near future.
Their conversation was clearly heard by the two impressive men. One man with a mask covering half of his face genuinely smiled no longer hiding his feelings even his eyes gently soften.
Jiang Mo Chen instantly stopped to his step. In front of him is also Yan Hong Tian looking to the direction of people. But what truly catch his attention is the familiar voice of a female. He can see her fragile and small back yet full of determination. Her words are one of the things that can only affects him. But why it is always her back that he is seeing, as if she is someone he can't catch up. He bitterly shake his head and reminding himself that she already caught the attention of his good friend.
A woman who greatly value the commoner and sympathize to their life is fitted to be by his side. He can only happily look at his friend who have a doting look at his wife. He can't explain the small pain in his heart, he gently shake his head and ignore the sorrow that he felt.
-------------------
Yan yao yao could no longer endure her rage, while everyone around her are still in daze upon the words they heard from "the bastard wife".
Without caring to her appearance, her pale and sickly face was instantly replaced like a mad woman, she no longer hid her hostility she cannot wait to tear that despicable enchanting face and cut her poisonous tongue.
" your not going to help your wangfei?, the third princess face is not looking good " General Jiang anxiously ask the second prince
Yan Hong Tian only coldly smile
" a woman without a backbone doesn't deserve this prince recognition, my destined path is full of thorns and conspiracy. If this simple scheme and a petty woman can easily defeat her, then she no longer need to stay beside this prince ".
Jiang Mo Chen chuckles, his friend said it with indifferent face, however they knew the second prince very well. He was a kind of man who would never hesitate to abandon and ignore people he doesn't care especially women.
But, Su Qian Meng spend her first day in Duan Wangfu unscratched, he let the personal attendant of his dicease mother to accompany her and more importantly he intentionally cut his conversation with the emperor to follow his wife. If Su Qian Meng is not special, then he really don't know what to think. He would rather spend his time thinking of strategies in war than to guess his friend inner mind.
"Slap"
They can see the woman in silver robe fell with her left cheek shade in red, Lin Mama instantly coax the wangfei, she cannot help but to blame oneself, being immersed with her brilliant words toward the common people left her in daze and made her reaction late.
Su Qian Meng hid her swelling cheek and forcing herself to stop her sob, her body trembling. People can see drops of tears in white jade, they cannot help but to pity the woman and held a disdain to the third princess.
Every word that came out from the lips of Duan Wangfei immediately touch their numb hearts. Every slaves experience the unfair treatment of the world and they can only bitterly endure it, however a 15 year-old girl can see the truth behind their obedient face.
Unknown to everyone, Su Qian Meng have her signature "victory smile".
Su Qian Meng planned to provoke this spoiled princess and reveal her wretched face. She slowly put out the laxative poison hidden in her beautiful trimmed nails.
Flashback
Mu Jin slowly approach her mistress "mistress these are the sachets with flower fragrance you ask for nubi to buy"
Su qian Meng lightly smiled, the things she ask for Mu Jin are ingredients to prepare a powerful laxative but she order to hide its existence since she knew there are spies who are silently monitoring her actions.
The imperial palace is a dangerous place coated in gold, even though she came from a modern world she is fond of discovering histories buried from a thousand years ago. Her simple hobby became her support to live peacefully in this era.
Afterall, no soldier will go to war without his armor and weapons.
-----------
Lin Mama gently help the wangfei to stand but her expressionless face have a killing aura.
Yan Yao Yao instantly came back to herself, her rage made her to act against "that bastard wife" but she don't regret her action.
She arrogantly lift her chin, ignorant to the hostility of everyone around her. Even the fourth prince can only helplessly shake his head, he knows his third sister is done.
Su Qian Meng raise her small and exquisite face full of tears that can gain any man protection, such a delicate and innocent face only meant to smile and not to feel wrong.
There is no grievance that can be seen nor humiliation, instead she hastily hold the third princess hand but was only to be rejected right away.
"Don't think you can easily touch this princess jade hands. After humiliating the royal family and defending the slaves, you don't have the qualification. Apologize to this princess!" Yan Yao Yao said with full of disgust, her fury truly blind her and forgot the ettequites that the Shu Guifei taught her.
Lin Mama is ready to retaliate but Su Qian Meng shake her head.
" Third princess, this wangfei never have the intention to humiliate the royal family and only stated the things that I have seen with my own eyes. I never apologize to things I have never done. It was a pity this wangfei good intention is not appreciated. " Her voice is soft yet it carries authority that even the third princess felt unknown fear.
