C15 Married Face-smacking

"Impossible, Xu Zhaoning, you must be talking nonsense." Xu Yanran was unwilling to believe Xu Zhaoning's words no matter what. From her point of view, the Crown Prince already had deep feelings for her.

Crown Princess's position must also be hers.

"Second Sister, why are you so agitated? Isn't it better for His Highness the Crown Prince to show that he doesn't have any relationship with you in public? Otherwise, if the outside world were to find out that you don't know anything about me and the Crown Prince's engagement period, then who would dare to marry you in the future?"

Xu Zhaoning looked at Xu Yanran with a beaming smile. She looked like a big sister who knew her best. However, the words that came out of her mouth caused Xu Yanran's face to instantly turn pale.

There was no girl that did not care about her own reputation, Xu Zhaoning's words were obviously accusing her of being shameless. Xu Yanran stared at Xu Zhaoning with red eyes, her lips trembling, and twisted the handkerchief in her hands into pieces with her ten fingers.

"Xu Zhaoning, shut up!" Just when Xu Zhaoning thought that Xu Yanran would pounce on her and bite her, the sinister voice of Mrs Xu rang out.

"As the direct descendant of my Loyalty Duke's Mansion, I don't have any men I want to marry. But for you, without Crown Princess's name, you're even inferior to my Hou Mansion's servant girl."

Mrs Xu did not conceal her disgust towards Xu Zhaoning at all. In her opinion, even if Xu Yanran could not marry the crown prince, she could still marry into the royal family.

Xu Zhaoning allowed Mrs Xu's disgusted gaze to fall on her body. She twirled her hair and lowered her head without saying a word.

Seeing that Xu Zhaoning did not say anything, Mrs Xu thought she had intimidated her and her tone became high, "From today onwards, you will still be living in that old Shao Court. You will be a second rate girl like Yue Yin.

"Grandmother is wise!" Seeing that Mrs Xu didn't even dare to fart, Xu Yanran was overjoyed. She screamed at the top of her lungs, "Xu Zhaoning, you heard Grandmother's words. Grandmother has the final say. Get the hell out of here!"

"Heh, so this Loyalty Duke's Mansion was actually decided by a woman." Xu Zhaoning's voice sounded ethereal and pleasant to the ears, but Xu Chengke's expression darkened as he looked in Xu Yanran's direction reproachfully.

However, before he could explain, he heard the butler rushing over, "Old Duke, Master Hou, an imperial decree has come."

"Hurry up and set up the case," Xu Renyu was the first to react. He instructed Uncle Bai to set the case on fire before he strode out. He had only taken two steps when he turned around to look at Xu Zhaoning.

"Grandfather, how could someone like Xu Zhaoning know the meaning of His Majesty's words?" Xu Yanran chuckled. At the same time, she cast a mocking glance in Xu Zhaoning's direction.

Xu Renyu was slightly stunned, as if he agreed to Xu Yanran's words, and then led Xu Chengke out with large strides.

"Grandmother, Mother, I think that the imperial edict was meant to give us the entire Loyalty Duke's Mansion. Let's go listen to it together." Xu Yanran held Mrs Xu in one hand and Lin Loong in the other. Their gazes followed Xu Renyu and his son out of the courtyard.

"Girl, since you're always so curious, why don't you come along?" Mrs Xu reprimanded Xu Yanran as she pointed at her forehead. After that, she allowed her to support her as she walked out. When she passed by Xu Zhaoning, she even let out a loud snort.

Xu Zhaoning, who was treated as an outsider, rubbed her nose and thought to herself, "When that big family goes from being happy to being scared, it must be very fun, right?"

In the front yard of Loyalty Duke's Mansion, when Xu Renyu saw that the person who came to announce the decree was actually the big shot next to the emperor, he immediately quickened his pace and excitedly called out, "Eunuch Shun."

"Old Duke, congratulations." That Eunuch Shun had a lot of respect for Xu Renyu. He threw his horsetail whisk towards Xu Renyu and made a comeback. The congratulations in his mouth were extremely festive.

"I wonder where this happiness comes from?" Xu Chengke wasn't as calm as his father. When he heard that the king's favorite people had come to congratulate him, he immediately took two steps forward in joy and crossed over his father to stand directly in front of Eunuch Shun.

Eunuch Shun's mouth twitched as he retreated two steps back without leaving a trace. As before, he replied with a smile: "Of course, congratulations to the Hou Mansion and the royal family for getting even happier."

Just then, Xu Yanran walked into the front yard. Upon hearing this, her eyebrows shot up in happiness, and she pulled on Mrs Xu's hand, exclaiming happily, "Grandmother, did you hear that? "I've been bestowed the title of Crown Prince. I'm soon going to marry into the Eastern Palace. It was that slut Xu Zhaoning who couldn't bear to see me and purposely slandered me previously."

"My daughter is amazing!" Lin Loong was even happier than Xu Yanran. Her well-maintained face was bright red as she ran towards Xu Chengke in a hurry, "Master Hou, did you hear that? Our daughter is going to be Crown Princess. "

"Then I'm the crown prince's father-in-law." Xu Chengke was delighted, looking so excited that he almost wanted to feast on the 300 tables.

"Tsk tsk tsk, shamelessness is indeed contagious."

Xu Zhaoning had her hands on her chest as she leaned against the pillar, hiding in the shadows. She was already astonished by Xu Chengke and his wife's shamelessness.

Seeing Eunuch Shun's face that was like a palette, the only one awake at the scene was Xu Zhaoning and Xu Renyu. He glared fiercely at his son and daughter-in-law before stepping forward and respectfully asking Eunuch Shun, "Eunuch …"

Eunuch Shun glanced at him meaningfully, then looked up to find Xu Zhaoning, "Where's Eldest Miss Xu?"

"Xu Zhaoning? The Emperor bestowed a marriage upon me and the crown prince, so why is Xu Zhaoning present? " Xu Yanran woke up from her beautiful dream and glared at Eunuch Shun in dissatisfaction.

"It seems that Second Sister doesn't care about what I just said." Xu Zhaoningwei walked forward with her head lowered. She looked at Xu Yanran with pity in her eyes before respectfully kneeling in front of Eunuch Shun.

"According to the heavens, this is the Emperor's edict. There are girls in the Xu Family, and their names are Zhaoning, gentle, elegant, dignified, and courteous. They are a good match, and they are bestowed with the title of Duke Si Jingyu … "

"What!?" "How, how could this be!" Xu Yanran was dumbfounded. She couldn't believe that Eunuch Shun's congratulation was directed at Xu Zhaoning.

Eunuch Shun glanced at Xu Yanran in disdain. Then, he kept the imperial edict and walked in front of Xu Zhaoning, respectfully saying, "Empress Dowager has an order. Eldest Miss Xu can leave the pavilion according to the royal princess' rules."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your love. Zhaoning will not return this favor. She will definitely be at peace with the Crown Prince, and the Empress will not have to worry about that." After receiving the imperial edict from Eunuch Shun, Xu Zhaoning replied obediently. Eunuch Shun nodded, obviously very pleased with Xu Zhaoning.

Seeing Eunuch Shun smile at Xu Zhaoning in satisfaction, Xu Yanran shouted, "What about me?!"

"Second Miss Xu should read more when she's free," Eunuch Shun said meaningfully. He was warned by the emperor and the empress dowager this time. Right now, other than the fact that this young miss Xu Family was a little timid, there was nothing else that was inappropriate.

As for this Second Miss Xu Family, it was really hard for her to explain it all. It was fortunate that the crown prince gave up on their relationship in front of the empress dowager, otherwise …

Eunuch Shun revealed some thoughts on the surface, but Xu Renyu thought something was wrong and went up to lead the way for Eunuch Shun. "Please come over here uncle-master. I got some good tea leaves a few days ago …"

"Xu Zhaoning, you knew about this a long time ago, right? You dumped the crown prince and climbed onto Prefecture Prince Si, yet you acted like nothing has happened on purpose, you crafty and insidious woman. "

Xu Yanran's current anger made her completely mad. Eunuch Shun's profound words were like a resounding slap on her face, causing her to sink into a state of extreme unease.

"So what if I did it on purpose? There's one thing you're right about. I was the one who dumped the crown prince, so what can you do to me? "

Xu Zhaoning chuckled. She approached Xu Yanran and lowered her voice as she spoke.

Xu Yanran, who had already gone berserk, seemed to have gone berserk. The hairpin in her hand shone with a strange light under the sunlight.

"Xu Zhaoning, I'll kill you!"
