763: Chapter 501_2 763: Chapter 501_2 “Miss Yan, are you afraid of what our Princess might do to you at the General’s Mansion?”
The maid’s words carried a hint of provocation, guessing the Princess would threaten the other party, but she also needed to provoke a response to fulfill her mission.
Yan Weiwei did not have a good impression of that Princess, especially since she was so arrogant!
As an ordinary woman, she should have kept a low profile, yet she had already decided to adapt to this identity.
One’s origins do not determine everything.
With such favorable conditions and people who loved her so dearly, why should she endure bullying from others?
“Xiangxiang, you go back to the courtyard first, I’ll be right back,” she said.
Cai Xiangxiang shook her head vigorously: “No, I must follow Miss!”
“Hmph, our Princess isn’t going to eat anyone,” the maid muttered under her breath.
Yan Weiwei…
Your Princess might not literally eat people, but sometimes she’s even scarier than that, breaking up true lovers!
Cai Xiangxiang…
Your Princess must have malicious intentions, far scarier than a cannibal!
Yan Weiwei did not overly object to Cai Xiangxiang’s insistence on following her.
She merely took a moment to quietly ask Jiang Tang to help look after her family because she feared they wouldn’t cope well with the many things that might happen later today.
Jiang Tang, of course, noticed the little schemes of the Princess and her maid but just felt that his future brother-in-law was sometimes too easily deceived by responsibility, a bit foolish.
Jiang Tang had already been in love with Lin Dandan, and both possessed the special ability of clairvoyance.
He seemed to sense the difference between a girl and a woman, a virginal maiden and a woman.
Was that Princess here to snatch his brother-in-law this time?
Why did he feel that the Princess was not a virginal maiden?
Wasn’t it said that the Princess had not yet married?
Did her Cultivation change a woman’s body?
Jiang Tang harbored such doubts as he observed Lin Dandan and then compared her with other women nearby.
These women were all cultivators, and there was a distinction to be made before they became women.
Nor had he heard of any special relationship between Ye Tian and that Princess.
If there truly was such a special relationship, the King would not let it slide.
There would not be silence today; the situation would be used as leverage for threatening.
But was the Princess seeking out his senior sister over this matter?
On the surface, Jiang Tang accompanied several beautiful women back to their lodging in the courtyard with Yan Weiwei’s family, but in reality, he enveloped the entire General’s Mansion in his powerful Divine Sense.
Any unusual movements, even the slightest sounds and intentions, were within his knowledge.
Jiang Tang was also very curious—who could be the man of a Princess who was not a virginal maiden?
Thus, driven by curiosity, he inquired with a monkey that had followed the Third Son of the Dragon King into the Imperial Palace, seeking out this piece of Bagua gossip.
Ye Tian, ridiculed behind his back by his former junior brother, now brother-in-law, was unaware, merely sneezing during his flight to the Imperial Palace.
He rubbed his nose, thinking he shouldn’t be spoken ill of on such a good day; it must be that his girlfriend was missing him after his departure.
He needed to make a quick round trip.
Yan Weiwei and Cai Xiangxiang, led by the maid, arrived at the grand garden.
Indeed, they saw the highly esteemed Princess Long Feifeng.
“Your Highness Princess Long Feifeng, Miss Yan is here!”
“Oh, bold commoner, previously out of respect for General Ye, you did not kneel when you saw me, and now you still show no understanding,” Princess Long Feifeng said as soon as she saw Yan Weiwei and the beautiful woman beside her, jealousy fueling her angry words.
Especially upon seeing the golden jewelry on Yan Weiwei.
And the lovely visage of Cai Xiangxiang.
The beauty of these two women made her, a Princess raised in the Imperial Palace with such noble parents as the King and the Empress, feel inferior to commoner women.
Princess Long Feifeng felt that only her status was superior: her looks were not a match for commoner women, and as a beauty-conscious woman, she had an urge to mar the faces of these two women.
Yan Weiwei was not intimidated or frightened by Princess Long Feifeng’s threats, treating her with the due courtesy of a commoner.
Cai Xiangxiang did not kneel either.
They both understood that whatever they did in the presence of the Princess would be twisted and faulted!
“We have seen the Princess Long Feifeng!”
“Humph, as expected of a woman of lowly status, you don’t even understand etiquette; it seems we need to propose to the General to apply for a governess in the palace to properly teach you, the future General’s Wife.”
As Princess Long Feifeng spoke, the maidservants by her side laughed.
Yan Weiwei…!
Cai Xiangxiang…!
The maidservants beside Princess Long Feifeng saw these two women hanging their heads, allowing the Princess to scold them without daring to utter a word!
Thus, they ridiculed them in their jibber-jabber, saying the future General’s Wife and her companions were ignorant and lacked manners, clearly ordinary women unfit for high society.
Yan Weiwei…, no matter how noble her status, what of it!
Her attendants were so impolite, even suggesting a governess should educate them.
Though she bowed her head, she was sneering mockingly; she had been mentally prepared to meet with the Princess.
What else could they say besides these words?
In terms of wealth, this Princess was no match for her now.
Even though her status was noble, what of it?
She wasn’t raised on the Princess’s food and wouldn’t be in the future either.
In the Cultivation World, where strength is respected, one could only be proud if they were powerful.
Was this Princess like her?
Cai Xiangxiang, too, bowed her head, yet she was very angry—these people actually dared to disrespect her mistress, and she wanted nothing more than to slap them away.
Cai Xiangxiang had always been gentle, and it was always Yan Weiwei who defended her, but she could be fiercely protective as well, just lacking in power.
At this moment, she held back from retorting, not wishing to engage in a vulgar quarrel with the Princess and her cohort.
Cai Xiangxiang could already feel that, though there were no onlookers in the garden, many Divine Senses were watching them.
Many were spectators for entertainment, but of course, some were watching out of concern for them.
Cai Xiangxiang was curious to see if the Princess and her people had any other purpose besides hurling insults?
Perhaps it wouldn’t be as simple as just insulting them!
Princess Long Feifeng saw that her maidservants had said so much, probably enough to dry their mouths, and these two kept their heads down in silence, making it look like a one-sided show, giving the impression of bullying in the eyes of bystanders.
Verbal attack was the first agenda of her summoning them, with other purposes yet to unfold.
“Yan Weiwei, for a commoner to wear such jewelry is over the top, the necklace around your neck.
And the accessory on your forehead, the shimmering Magical Treasures you’re wearing, who gave them to you?
Could you show them to me?”
Princess Long Feifeng asked with a tone that brooked no refusal.
Yan Weiwei…, so after all the insults, you finally reveal your greedy fox tail, coveting my dowry?
Cai Xiangxiang…, how shameless can this person be?
She already tried to snatch jewelry once during the ceremony, now again?
Does the Princess really have that much face?
“Princess Long Feifeng, of course, this dowry was given by my relatives, and while I can allow you to look at it, I cannot take it off!”
Yan Weiwei raised her head, her eyes resolute, her expression not the least bit vulnerable at this moment!
“Audacious, our Princess merely wanted you to take off your jewelry for a look, what good thing hasn’t our Princess seen?”
Princess Long Feifeng said in angry agitation.
Her maidservant rebuked with words.
“Sorry, we have our customs.
Today is our mistress’s engagement day, these are all her dowry pieces; how can we let others handle them?”
Cai Xiangxiang also raised her head, the Princess’s maidservant was being disrespectful to her mistress, how could she allow this to happen?
Who can’t play the game of control!
“Presumptuous!
You, a mere common girl, dare to talk back to our Princess?”
That maidservant yelled, her hand reaching out to strike.
“You, a mere maidservant, dare to be rude to our Young General’s Wife, is this your upbringing?”
Cai Xiangxiang would not be so easily bullied, she fought back verbally and physically.
She seized the maidservant’s hand and restrained them, leaving them unable to move.
Both the maidservant and the common girl raised their hands; would the onlooking crowd take no action?
Would they let them fight here on the General’s Mansion’s turf?
“You…have some nerve!” Upon seeing her maidservant at a disadvantage, Princess Long Feifeng bellowed angrily!
