Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 171
Chapter 171 The Theatre Had a Face-To-Face Battle
Yin Xun asked, “Ju An, who is playing the zither outside?”
“Your Highness, it’s Princess Fu playing the zither.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Fu Mingyue sing, “Zhi Bigang, I, Ma Xuanhuang, will not be wounded forever. Zhi Bigang, I, Ma Yi. I, servant, Yun He Yu!”
Bai Junzhuo blinked. Was Fu Yunyue bullying her for not reading enough classical Chinese? He didn’t understand a single word!
“Let her go back to her room and play. This king is going to rest. Don’t disturb me.”
“Yes.”
After Ju An withdrew, Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but ask, “What is she singing? Is it a bad thing?”
“Yes.”
Bai Jun waved his hand and said, “What bad thing? Tell me, I want to know!”
“I’ve said that if she keeps her peace, my Ninth Prince’s Mansion will not lack a single idle person. If she still has unrealistic fantasies, it would be better to expel her as soon as possible.”
Bai Junzhuo roughly guessed that this song should express Fu Mingyue’s lonely and empty feelings. He sighed and said, “If only she could realize the awkwardness of her identity and volunteer to leave the palace.”
Yin Xun seemed as if he hadn’t heard of it, so he raised the hair on Bai Jun’s forehead and said, “It’s getting late. It’s time to rest.”
Bai Junzhuo immediately thought of what happened last night and blushed, “I’ve had a backache all day today.”
Yin Xun picked her up horizontally and walked straight into the inner room. He smiled and said, “It’s good to get used to it.”
*
The next day, Bai Junzhuo fell asleep again. When he opened his eyes, Yin Xun was no longer beside him.
After getting up to wash up and eat, Fu Yunyue actually ran over like yesterday, her face still full of enthusiasm.
It was really strange. Yin Xun treated her so coldly last night. If it was an ordinary person, he would definitely attribute this to Bai Junzhuo. She actually had a face that didn’t care.
If this person wasn’t really crazy, then the city would be too deep.
She happily ran over and said, “Little sister, the Zheng Jia Temple Opera House is going to sing” Peacock Flies Southeast “today. The opera house’s performers are the best in Chang’an. I haven’t been to Chang’an for such a long time. Little sister, accompany me!”
Just as Bai Junzhuo was about to say no, he heard her say, “Today’s play is really good. I heard that many madams and young ladies of noble families have already booked seats. It took me a lot of effort to buy two tickets. My sister is bored anyway. Why don’t you go out with me and get to know more people?”
Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment and nodded.
After arriving, she discovered that Fu Yunyue was indeed not lying. The layout of the theatre building of the Zhengjia Temple was exquisite, gorgeous and elegant. Judging from her bearing and clothes, she could tell that she was a woman from a high society.
Just as Bai Junzhuo sat down, two middle-aged women came over to greet Fu Yunyue. They noticed Bai Junzhuo and asked, “Which family’s young miss is this? I haven’t seen her before.”
Bai Junzhuo smiled. Just as he was about to speak, Fu Yunyue rushed to introduce him, “This is Jun Zhuo’s younger sister, who married into Ninth King’s Mansion with me. Sister, this is the wife of Mr. Shi Cao’s family, and this is the wife of Mr. Jin’s family.”
“So you are Bai Junzhuo?” The woman from the Jin Family raised her head slightly and said to Bai Junzhuo with an arrogant expression, “We’ve all heard of Lord Bai’s reputation. The good medical skills you learn are different. Once a sparrow turns into a phoenix, a commoner woman can also marry into the palace as a princess.”
Bai Junzhuo immediately understood that this person should have been a young lady of a noble family before she married the Golden Division. These people never put her above the top and did not put her in their eyes. Moreover, she and Fu Yunyue had married into the palace together. Even though they were both consort titles, in the eyes of outsiders, Fu Yunyue was still more powerful. Therefore, while deliberately belittling Bai Junzhuo, they also secretly flattered Fu Yunyue.
Fu Yunyue did not say anything, as if she could not hear the ridicule in their words.
Such a person, Bai Junzhuo, was too lazy to be friends with them. He smiled faintly and ignored them. He turned around and looked around. Perhaps he could see an acquaintance.
Seeing Bai Junzhuo’s unwillingness to respond to them, the two madams were instantly a little angry. Just as they were about to explode, they saw someone walking over from the left side of the table. They sat down beside Bai Junzhuo without asking.
Fu Yunyue was slightly stunned, and then she said angrily, “Shui Lingyu, this is my position!”
Shui Lingyu turned to look at her and smiled, “You guys are really going to the theatre? Aren’t you here to humiliate people? I like to hear your bitter ridicule the most. If you can’t hear me clearly from afar, then come and listen.”
“How could I ridicule others?” Fu Yunyue glared at her, “Get out of the way.”
“How can we compare to Princess Shui when it comes to being mean? Everyone who came from Xuchang knows that Princess Shui is famous throughout the city for her poisonous mouth. She can’t even get married when she is in her twenties. Only the little village maids from the countryside have never heard of your name and are willing to sit with you.”
Bai Junzhuo was very helpless. She had already endured it for a while, and Madam Shi Cao was still chasing after her to curse. She thought that Bai Junzhuo was really easy to bully if she didn’t give her some face.
Bai Junzhuo took a bite of the pastries on the table and said, “Yes, time is running out. Princess Shui should forget about Prince Jin Nan and find someone to marry. Otherwise, when someone like Old Pearl Yellow runs into the theater every day, she will be jealous to see someone younger and prettier than him and chase after him to scold him.”
Shui Fei Yu was a little surprised. She looked at Bai Jun Zhuo and then smiled, “This princess is different from some people. Some people think that they are really noble because they are other people’s lackeys. To put it bluntly, they are not just a fourth or fifth grade official lady who has not even been an official for three generations. She has married a husband who is also a fourth or fifth grade official. Haha, this noble princess does not dare to watch.”
“Who are you talking about!” Madam Shi Cao angrily pointed at Shui Fei Yu and scolded, “If you have the ability, say it again!”
“This imperial daughter is talking about you, how about it?” Shui Lingyu looked at her calmly, “If you are old, you should not show yourself. No matter how much powder you put on your face, you can see a man glancing at you. Why, are you angry? Madam Shi Cao is so cool and angry, she shouldn’t be angry.”
Bai Junzhuo couldn’t hold back any longer and laughed out loud.
Seeing her mock them, Madam Jin pointed at Bai Junzhuo and said, “You poor girl, what right do you have to laugh at us!”
Bai Junzhuo really didn’t know how he had been rumored to be a poor girl from the countryside. Although no one in her family had ever been an official, she was still one of the largest families in Luoyang City.
Without bothering to explain to them, Bai Junzhuo played with the snacks in his hand and silently said, “I suddenly remembered that the Empress Dowager took me as her adopted daughter at the birthday banquet. It seems that she made me a princess. I am the daughter of the Empress Dowager’s family. Madam Jin is so rich, she actually calls the royal family a poor family?”
The two of them did not know that Bai Junzhuo had been adopted by the Empress Dowager. They looked at each other with horror on their faces. He looked at Fu Yunyue again and finally felt relieved.
The foster daughter was still a foster daughter. She was not as close as Fu Yunyue’s true bloodline with the Empress Dowager. With Fu Yunyue’s support and under Lord Fu’s command, they did not need to fear the Ninth Prince and could still do whatever they wished.
As she spoke, the play had already begun. Fu Yunyue hurriedly comforted the two women and said, “Sisters, don’t be angry. Let’s sit down and watch the play.”
The two madams sat at the same table as them. Fu Yunyue sat beside Bai Junzhuo and patted her hand. “Sister, don’t take it to heart. They just spoke straightforwardly and didn’t look down on her.”
Bai Junzhuo quietly pulled back his hand and said with a smile, “Big sister is too thoughtful. Why would I be angry?”
Fu Yunyue smiled relieved, “It’s good that you’re not angry. Watch the play.”
After watching for a while, Shui Lingyu leaned back and muttered in a low voice, “Why is it not noisy anymore? It’s boring.”
She spoke in a low voice. Only Bai Junzhuo could hear her. She smiled helplessly. This girl was truly afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
Just as she finished speaking, the Madam Jin suddenly stood up and pointed at Bai Junzhuo fiercely, “Why did you kick me?”
Of course, Bai Junzhuo would not take the initiative to provoke her. It was probably Shui Lingyu who provoked her, so he lowered his head and looked at her feet. Seeing her crossing her legs, it was impossible for him to kick her.
Madam Shi Cao sat beside her and kicked her inconveniently. In that case, this Madam Jin was either making trouble for herself or was kicked by Fu Yunyue.
Bai Junzhuo completely ignored her and said indifferently, “Sit down. You’re blocking my show.”
Madam Shi Cao didn’t want to sit down obediently. She lifted her teacup and splashed it at Bai Junzhuo. Bai Junzhuo didn’t dodge and was splashed all over.
Everyone around cast their gazes at them. Bai Junzhuo was extremely unhappy, but this place was filled with high officials and nobles, so he still couldn’t act out openly.
Fu Yunyue hurriedly advised, “Stop messing around. Madam Shi Cao, you shouldn’t be like this. Even if your sister kicks you, you shouldn’t spill water all over your sister’s body! Your clothes are wet, and there is a clothing shop next door. Sister, hurry up and buy some clothes to change into.”
Looking at what she said, how dignified and serious she was. When outsiders heard this, they knew that she, Bai Junzhuo, had taken the initiative to stir up trouble.
Bai Junzhuo immediately looked weak and helpless. He said to Madam Shi Cao, “Madam misunderstood. Where did I kick Madam? It was clearly a stray dog rubbing Madam.”
Madam Shi Cao was speechless. Bai Junzhuo stood up and held her hand and said, “Madam, don’t be angry. If you really think I did it, I will admit it. I won’t even reply to you if you hit me and scold me. As long as you don’t cause trouble for me in the future.”
“You” Madam Shi Cao’s face turned red from holding back, unable to utter a single word.
“Alright, alright. This may be a real misunderstanding. Sister, hurry up and change your clothes. It’s not good to be frozen in such a cold weather.” Fu Yunyue continued to act as a peacemaker.
Bai Junzhuo nodded his head. With a wronged expression, he let go of Madam Shi Cao’s hand and walked out.
Shui Fei Yu looked at Bai Jun Zhuo’s leaving figure and saw that she secretly put a small bottle into the small bag that she carried with her. She then looked at the few people here, but no one noticed her small action.
Madam Shi Cao was comforted by Fu Yunyue and sat down. She angrily picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. Madam Jin hurriedly picked up the plate and said, “Eat some snacks and calm down. Don’t argue with this kind of little girl.”
Madam Shi Cao reached out and took a bite of the pastry on the plate. She wanted to say that Bai Jun was not burning it, but she actually let out an unpleasant sound like a broken bronze gong with a foul stench.
The few of them looked at each other. What was going on?
