Coming Kingly Son-in-Law: Don't Provoke the First Daughter - Chapter 17

Chapter 17 One More Trick
While speaking, Ye nudged nearby Jiang Min secretly. Then Jiang Min said drily, “Yes, I will continue doting on you.”

But Gu Qiang just shook her head and stared at Ye compellingly, “Mother, what does my father think about it?”

Before Ye answered, she kneeled down before Changning and bowed heavily,

“Princess, my father hasn’t returned. It’s unfilial to prepare for marriage without the permission of both my parents. Besides, my elder brother hasn’t married. If I marry before him, I will be thought disrespectful for him. Princess, please help me out. Though I’m a girl, I don’t want to be a person unfilial to my parents and disrespectful for my siblings!”

What she said was powerful, but Changning looked at Gu Qiang with complicated eyes. Gu Qiang’s remark seemed to bring her back to the past. Back then, though she was a princess, her Mother only loved her brother and hardly cared for her. Later, her Father ordered her to marry. She was discontented with it, so she kneeled down before her Mother and implored her Mother to speak for her.

It was a pity that her Mother refused.

Finally, she was forced to marry out of the palace.

The princess didn’t respond, so Gu Qiang was still on her knees and didn’t intend to rise.

More and more people below cast their eyes over here. Even Old Lady Gu, who was resting in Felicity Hall because she didn’t feel well, sent someone to ask what’s going on.

Ye’s face became more and more awful. Jiang Min thought Gu Qiang didn’t want to marry her son, so in a fit of rage, she sneered and said,

“How sharp your tongue is! The Glory Mansion is willing to accept you only because I cherish the sibling relationship between your late mother and me! Otherwise, do you think you’re qualified to marry my son?”

Such an invalid girl dared to look down upon her son. After cursing Gu Qiang, Jiang Min still felt angry. She stretched out her hands and planned to slap Gu Qiang, “Bah! A shameless bitch!”

“My Lady!”

Ting Feng shouted in surprise while intending to rush over to protect Gu Qiang subconsciously. But someone was faster than her. Changning’s lady-in-waiting went forward expressionlessly and grabbed Jiang Min’s wrists.

Changning looked at Jiang Min coldly and nodded slightly. Then her lady-in-waiting took the hint, used more strength and twisted Jiang Min’s hands. Jiang Min cried immediately, “You…”

“Audacious!”

The lady-in-waiting was not swayed and still looked solemn. Meanwhile, she didn’t loosen her grip, “You dare to misbehave in the presence of Princess. Madam Song, do you want to enter the Imperial Clan Court?”

The Imperial Clan Court?

Jiang Min was shocked. Before she came to her sense, pale-faced Ye had kneeled down with Song Yu who was also dead scared, “Princess! Please forgive her, Princess!”

But Changning ignored them and just waved. Then Gu Qiang was lifted up. She wanted to salute, but Changning stopped her, “Don’t bother…I’ve been clear about your thoughts.”

Then she glanced at the three women on their knees and sneered, “I haven’t heard that marriage can be proposed without parents’ permission. Ye, you are the second wife. It’s reasonable that you don’t know decencies. But you’ve made a fool of yourself. Though I’m only an idle princess, I feel shocked to see that.”

“I…I…I don’t have enough knowledge and experience.”

With no time to consider other things, Ye bowed and apologied repeatedly, “Princess, please punish me!”

“Punishment is unnecessary.”

Changning flicked her nail cover, smiled coldly and rose while saying, “I’ll ask my Queen Sister-in-law to grant you a senior maid. Remember to learn courtesies from her.”

Ye’s nails were inserted into her own palms, but she still bowed heavily, “Yes. Thank you, Princess!”

About that thing, Changning had figured out how to deal with it, so she couldn’t stay here any longer patiently. After glancing at Gu Qiang to comfort her, she went back hurriedly with her servants.

After the princess left, other madams began to say goodbye after witnessing such a messy spring feast. Ye had to force a smile and see all of them off, pretending that she hadn’t seen their expressions.

When others all left except Jiang Min and her indignant children, Ye removed her artificial smile and stared at Qingshui House with sinister eyes for a long time.

“Bitch!”

Jiang Min’s arms had bruises and hurt severely. But she still cursed Gu Qiang through clenched teeth, “She is really the daughter of the short-lived woman! Bitch! Bitch! I will revenge myself on her one day!”

“The day will come soon.”

Ye said slowly. Her eyes looked like a snake showing its poison fangs. She stared at Qingshui House that could be seen clearly through the window, “It depends on if you want her to be your daughter-in-law.”
