Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 158

Chapter 158 Shu Ya’s Face Was Disfigured
The wine drew an extremely beautiful arc in the air and finally landed on the painting made by Yun Xiao. Because the entire painting had just been finished, it had not yet been framed and the ink had not yet completely dried out. The moment it touched the water, it fainted on the paper.

County Lord Hui Ning pounced in Yun Xiao’s direction. Yun Xiao frowned slightly. At the corner of her eyes, she saw Lan Shuya behind her. A bright light flashed in her eyes. Just as County Lord Hui Ning was about to come into contact with her, Yunxiao took a step to the left and County Lord Hui Ning pounced in Lan Shuya’s direction.

Lan Shuya was caught off guard and couldn’t dodge, so she was suppressed by the county princess of Hui Ning.

A shrill scream rang out, and everyone’s gaze was focused on this side.

After a moment of chaos, everyone saw Lan Shuya and county princess Hui Ning twisting together, and Lan Shuya was suppressed beneath county princess Hui Ning.

Their clothes were messy and their hair in a bun was messy. Everyone could only see two figures together.

County Lord Hui Ning’s original plan was to arrive by Yun Xiao’s side, Pushing Yun Xiao down, Nothing will happen to her, However, just as she was about to reach Yun Xiao, someone pushed her behind her and she couldn’t help but fall in front of her. She thought that Yun Xiao in front of her, even if she made a fool of herself, would pull Yun Xiao to make a fool of herself together with her. However, she didn’t expect that the person she had crushed now would be Lan Shuya.

Looking at Lan Shuya’s beautiful face, her mind immediately buzzed. This face was too harmful to her. It was the face that could be Zhou Jingyan’s beloved imperial concubine in the future. Thinking of this, a crazy thought popped up in her heart. She wanted to destroy this face!

Thinking of this, county princess Huining felt that all her thoughts were like this. She struggled to get up, and her hand accidentally touched Lan Shuya’s face. Just as she was about to retract her hand, county princess Huining changed her mind at this critical moment.

He put his hand on Lan Shuya’s face and pinched her face. A bloody scar appeared on Lan Shuya’s face with his sharp fingernails. When he left Lan Shuya’s cheek, there was still a trace of blood on his fingernails.

When Lan Shuya saw the madness in county princess Huining’s eyes, His entire face changed, With a frightened expression, There was a faint fear in his eyes. However, she was still furious. She quickly reacted and used her hand to push county princess Huining. However, she did not expect her movements to be fast. County princess Huining’s movements were also fast, and she actually increased her strength. When she felt the pain on her face, the corner of Lan Shuya’s eyes saw the blood on county princess Huining’s fingernails and immediately screamed.

A mournful voice echoed in the air above the main hall. Many people couldn’t help but wrinkle their eyes.

Zhou Jingyan looked at the scene in front of him and a trace of disgust arose in his heart. However, this banquet was hosted by him, so he naturally had to act as the host. He anxiously said, “Someone, hurry up and help county princess and Miss Lan up.”

When Yun Xiao heard Lan Shuya’s scream, she knew that something extraordinary must have happened. At that time, County Lord Hui Ning’s hair dropped down and landed on Lan Shuya’s face, blocking everyone’s line of sight.

When she saw the bloodstains on County Lord Hui Ning’s fingernails, her gaze flickered slightly. Her gaze landed on County Lord Hui Ning, her gaze filled with disbelief.

But when he remembered that county princess Hui Ning actually dared to take his own life, if he only wanted to disfigure Lan Shuya, it would naturally be a very simple matter.

Moreover, in her previous life, Lan Shuya had always relied on her beautiful face to win Zhou Jingyan’s favor in the harem. As Zhou Jingyan’s first pet imperial concubine, county princess Hui Ning would naturally hate her.

Thinking of this, Yun Xiao sighed. Seeing that Chun Lan was going to help county princess Hui Ning and Lan Shuya, Yun Xiao immediately pulled Chun Lan’s sleeve. It was better for her people not to interfere in this matter. Otherwise, county princess Hui Ning and Lan Shuya would definitely slander her, and she did not want to go to this sewage.

Of course, because at this moment, Yun Xiao’s heart had once again defined county princess Hui Ning as an extremely crazy woman!

No matter what, Yun Xiao’s gaze had already lost the joy of being bought for the first time by a hundred gold coins. Her gaze was faint, and a strange look flashed through her heart. She looked at Xiao Yuqi, who was standing at the side, and saw Xiao Yuqi and her maidservant standing there motionlessly. Obviously, she had no intention of asking for help.

Not long after, Lan Shuya and County Lord Hui Ning’s maidservant finally separated the two of them. Everyone saw that there was a bloody mark on Lan Shuya’s elegant face. This mark directly extended from under her eyes to her nose. This mark caused everyone to gasp.

Naturally, Lan Shuya also knew about her disfigured appearance. She covered her cheeks in horror and tears of pain poured down her cheeks. Normally, many young masters of aristocratic families would have to pity and comfort her. However, when they saw her ruined face, they could only sigh in their hearts.

Of course, the saddest thing for Lan Shu right now was that she was disfigured in front of the nobles in the capital.

She had always relied on this face of hers, but she didn’t expect it to be destroyed just like that by County Lord Hui Ning. When she thought of this, she looked at Hui Ning with deep hatred. If everyone wasn’t looking at her, she would have definitely pounced on her by now.

Zhou Jingyan blinked his eyes and immediately said, “Someone, hurry up and preach to the imperial physician.”

Someone immediately trotted down.

The bloody scar on Lan Shuya’s face was now covered by her handkerchief. Everyone could only see a beautiful woman who was overwhelming, tearing herself up. Everyone’s hearts couldn’t help but rise when they saw her.

Seeing this, Yun Xiao walked forward and whispered, “Cousin, are you alright?”

When Lan Shuya heard this voice, she immediately looked at Yun Xiao. Her eyes flickered with pleading, “Cousin, help me!” Before Yun Xiao could speak, Lan Shuya had already pointed at County Lord Hui Ning and cried. Her voice was filled with unconcealable grief and hatred, “It’s her! County Lord Hui Ning purposely cut my face.”

She had no idea when she had offended county princess Hui Ning. County princess Hui Ning could actually make such a vicious move! Thinking about how he would no longer have Qingcheng’s appearance in the future, the hatred in his heart could already burn Qianyun Ju up.

Yun Xiao was stunned. Although everyone was still sitting in their respective seats in the banquet hall, after listening to Lan Shuya’s words, her expression was completely wrong. She frowned and said, “Cousin, is what you said true?”

County Lord Hui Ning tidied up his clothes after being helped up by the maidservant. Hearing this, he said calmly, “Miss Lan, how can such a crime be framed at will?” I just stumbled and you fell down. How can I say that I purposely scratched your face? “I can’t afford such a crime. How could you taint the reputation of my daughter’s family like this?” Her face was ashen, and her expression was angry. It was as if she was truly complaining about her injustice. However, the unconcealable smile in her eyes revealed her intentions at this moment.

Lan Shuya was even angrier. “Who said I couldn’t prove it? There’s blood on your fingernails. Everyone here can see you scratch my face. Do you dare to show everyone your hands?” Lan Shuya’s words were outrageous, but now she could no longer care about these things.

“Why wouldn’t I dare?” When County Lord Huining finished speaking, he stretched out his hand. His white hand was as delicate as snow, small and round. He flipped back and forth in front of everyone but didn’t see the blood stains that Lan Shuya had said. “Miss Lan, are you going to apologize for slandering me now?”

Lan Shuya was stunned. How could this be? It was clearly the county princess of Hui Ning who had sliced his face.

Yun Xiao also frowned slightly, but did not say anything.

Zhou Jingyan observed and said loudly, “Something happened at the banquet today. Everyone should rest for a while and let Miss Lan and County Lord Hui Ning go back and change their clothes first.”

Although everyone was still curious, since the Third Prince said this, it was naturally not easy for them to refuse.

Yun Xiao helped Lan Shuya walk out, and county princess Huining also walked out. Zhou Jingyan also followed.

After those figures disappeared, Xiao Yuqi looked at the painting scroll beside her. She saw that glass of wine spilled on the canvas, dyed the lower left corner of the red plum blossom, and the corner of her mouth slightly raised. This painting that made Yun Xiao famous had finally been destroyed. She must thank county princess Hui Ning one day.

At this moment, Xiao Yuqi felt an inquiring gaze looking at her. Her expression stiffened slightly. She turned around and looked in the direction of her line of sight. She whispered, “This painting was destroyed just like that. What a pity. I wonder if Young Master Rong still wants to offer a million gold taels to buy this painting?”

Everyone looked at the painting in unison. Sure enough, a corner of it had been destroyed. The ethereal feeling had disappeared. Everyone couldn’t help but sigh. However, they still wanted to know if Rong Jin would buy such a dirty painting.

After all, before the transaction could be completed, the item had been destroyed. He had room for regret. Such a dirty painting was no longer worth much.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Rong Jin did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he smiled faintly. His gaze was dark and there was no intention of reneging. Instead, he said softly with a faint expectation, “As long as Fourth Young Lady is willing to sell, I am naturally willing to buy it.”

Once these words were spoken, everyone in the main hall was in an uproar. A million gold taels was not a small amount! Everyone was wondering if Rong Jin had been kicked in the head by the donkey, or else why would he say such a thing?

When she walked out of the banquet hall, Lan Shuya suddenly stopped. She looked at the county princess of Hui Ning who was following her and said angrily, “You did it on purpose!” At that time, she clearly saw county princess Hui Ning deliberately scratching her face with her hand.

County princess Hui Ning wasn’t angry when she criticized her. She saw Zhou Jingyan and Zhou Jingchen walk out from the corner of her eyes. She smiled and said, “Miss Lan, don’t talk nonsense. I just accidentally fell and hit you. I didn’t do anything to your cheek. If you really want to apologize for bringing you down, then I’ll apologize.”

Lan Shuya’s brows furrowed when she heard this very disingenuous words. She originally wanted to continue, but when she saw Yun Xiao’s figure behind her, her expression sank.

Yun Xiao naturally saw the two figures following behind her and nodded lightly, “Third Prince, can I borrow a room from you?”

Naturally, Qiaolan, take them to change clothes, Zhou Jingyan said to Li Qiaolan, who was following behind him.

Although Li Qiaolan was unwilling, when she saw Zhou Jingyan’s expression, she gently replied, “Yes.”

Not long after, Li Qiaolan brought them into a different courtyard. Just as Yun Xiao was about to enter the house with Lan Shuya, she heard Li Qiaolan whisper, “Fourth Miss, Miss Lan and the county princess go in to change clothes. Why don’t we sit down and talk first?”

Yun Xiao’s leg that was about to enter the room suddenly stopped. She turned to look at Li Qiaolan and narrowed her eyes slightly. She didn’t feel that she had anything to say to Li Qiaolan. She kept guessing in her heart what Li Qiaolan was going to do.

County princess Hui Ning and Lan Shuya were also concerned about this matter. County princess Hui Ning unconsciously sized up Li Qiaolan and Lan Shuya. Finally, she snorted coldly and entered the room. She closed the door and immediately instructed the maidservant beside her, “Ban Xia, go and see what Mrs. Li and Yun Xiao are talking about.”

A loud sound of the door closing rang out. Lan Shuya also came back to her senses and sized up the two of them. She couldn’t help but wonder in her heart, how could the wife of the Third Prince’s Mansion know Yun Xiao? However, she didn’t want to ask more about this. She just smiled and said, “Cousin, I’ll go change myself. You can talk to Mrs. Li.” She had heard that the Third Prince was very fond of this lady.

Since other people had left, if she didn’t go, she wouldn’t be able to explain. Yun Xiao smiled and said, “Alright, Madam Li, please.” She wanted to see what Li Qiaolan could say.

After she finished speaking, Li Qiaolan walked towards the pavilion not far away, as if she was the master of the mansion.
