Chapter 739 First Arrival at the Liang Prince's Mansion
"Wu Yue'er, I was too busy to talk to you for the moment, how dare you say such a thing?"
Prince Yang's face turned ashen. "Let me tell you, if you have any grievances, come at me, not Meng Qin!"
He already knew that Wu Yue'er was no pushover, but he never expected that she would collude with the Fourth Princess Consort so quickly. He was afraid that she would cause him a lot of trouble in the future, both openly and secretly!
Wu Yue'er was furious and said righteously, "It was her own fault for being blind and doing something wrong, and her apology wasn't sincere enough."
Even if she's about to marry you, you're not married yet, are you?
"What's wrong with Princess Liang making her kneel down and apologize? I think you simply don't respect your sister-in-law at all!"
Qi Qingyi had no idea what to do at this moment. She just wanted to calm things down. The prince had a bad temper, and if she made a scene in front of him, she would definitely be scolded, which was not the result she wanted.
However, listening to Wu Yue'er's words, she felt that what she said made sense.
She did nothing wrong. Just because Meng Qin has Prince Yang protecting her doesn't mean she should be inferior to him.
“Prince Yang, we are all family. There’s really no need to make things so ugly. If you insist on taking this to the Prince of Liang or even the palace, it will certainly not benefit me, but will it benefit you?”
Qi Qingyi looked at Prince Yang, she didn't believe that Prince Yang wasn't worried at all!
Prince Yang's heart sank. He really hadn't paid much attention to this fourth princess over the years!
"In that case, let's go to the Liang Prince's residence and ask him first!"
Chu Junting strode in and stood beside Prince Yang.
"Third Imperial Brother?" Prince Yang was slightly surprised to see Chu Junting, but then his heart settled down.
Qi Qingyi's expression changed slightly. She hadn't expected that one problem would arise after another. The troubles of Prince Yang and Meng Qin hadn't been resolved yet, and now Prince Chu had arrived!
"King of Chu, what are you trying to do?"
Chu Junting's lips curled into a cold smile. "You don't think you can just let bygones be bygones about the matter of Princess Liang bullying my Princess, do you?"
Qi Qingyi's expression changed slightly. She did want to cause trouble for Song Ruozhen, but this woman was notoriously difficult to deal with, and she had not succeeded at all. Did the King of Chu also want to hold a grudge against her?
"This is the second time you've deliberately made things difficult for my queen. You're taking advantage of the Qi family's special status to look down on both the Meng and Song families."
I initially thought that the first disagreement would be fine, but now it's happened again and again. If I don't step in now, it might never end.
Chu Junting's eyes were contemptuous, and his voice was calm and nonchalant. "In that case, let's make things clear today to avoid any further complications."
"Eighth Brother, let's go to the Liang Prince's Mansion."
Chu Junting ignored Qi Qingyi and led his wife out the door.
Upon hearing this, Prince Yang's eyes lit up with a sense of shrewdness, and he immediately took Meng Qin with him and followed.
Yun Nianchu also wanted to join in the fun, but she knew that royal family affairs were not something to be watched casually. It wouldn't be good if she caused trouble for her husband.
She'll ask Ruozhen and Mengqin about it tomorrow. It's not as exciting as seeing it with her own eyes, but as long as she knows what happens next, that's fine.
Prince Liang's Mansion.
Soon, Song Ruozhen and her party arrived at the Liang Prince's Mansion.
Qi Qingyi and Wu Yue'er's carriage followed closely behind. Seeing that they really had no intention of stopping, Qi Qingyi clenched her fists and hated them all in her heart!
"I never expected that Song Ruozhen would complain about such a trivial matter as a quarrel. I'm afraid she's said a lot of bad things about me to the King of Chu!"
Otherwise, I wouldn't have had much interaction with the King of Chu, and he wouldn't have treated me like this out of respect for the prince!
Thinking of how the King of Chu and the King of Yang protected their wives, Wu Yue'er was furious. She hadn't noticed that the two of them had such similarities before.
This is quite different from his brothers. Could it be that all men in the Chu You Dynasty are like this, wholeheartedly protecting their wives?
"Princess Consort Liang, what do you have to worry about? They have the Prince of Chu and the Prince of Yang protecting them, and you have the Prince of Liang in the same way, so how could you possibly lose to them?"
Hearing this, Qi Qingyi was not so optimistic. Others may not know, but she knew it in her heart.
Not everyone is like the King of Chu. Song Ruozhen is usually unrestrained, and she can tell that her confidence is not feigned.
Even if the King of Chu didn't say anything, he was already her strongest support when he stood beside her!
Her husband was a cold and aloof man. Even though they had been married for so long and he treated her very well, she always felt that there was an invisible barrier between them, as if she had never been able to reach his heart.
That's precisely why she doesn't have the same confidence as Song Ruozhen!
Inside the mansion.
"Your Highness, the Prince of Chu, the Princess of Chu, the Prince of Yang, and Miss Meng have arrived," the guard reported.
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Liang frowned immediately. "What are they doing here at my Prince of Liang's residence?"
"Your Highness, it seems that the Princess Consort was causing trouble for Princess Chu and Miss Meng outside, and the two princes happened to see it, so they came together to ask you for an explanation."
The guard looked embarrassed; he had just received the news.
"Miss Meng, is this the Princess Consort of Yang whom the Eighth Prince is about to welcome into the family?"
The guard nodded. "That's right."
Prince Yang first instructed the people outside, "Send someone to pour tea, and tell them that I am not feeling well and need some time to tidy up."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After the man left, Prince Yang said, "Explain yourself clearly, what exactly happened?"
"It is said that Miss Meng is about to get married, so the Princess of Chu was picking out a gift for her at a jewelry shop today, and happened to run into the Princess and Princess Qi Yue."
Princess Qi Yue and the Princess Consort of Chu already had a grudge against each other, and the Princess Consort had also had conflicts with the Princess Consort of Chu before, so they immediately started arguing after meeting.
As the guard spoke, he glanced at his master's expression and said, "The princess insisted that Miss Meng kneel down and apologize, but Miss Meng refused, and that's how this happened..."
Since arriving at the Liang Prince's Mansion, Song Ruozhen had been observing the place closely. The decor was very understated and elegant, without being ostentatious.
“You are the Princess Consort of Liang, and this is your residence. You should act like the master of the house. What are you afraid of? Do you think they can eat you?”
Wu Yue'er encouraged Qi Qingyi. She didn't understand why Qi Qingyi, who had been so proud before, had suddenly changed her attitude after returning. But she felt that it shouldn't be like this!
"What is Your Highness doing now?" Qi Qingyi asked the steward beside her.
"Your Highness, the Prince has heard the whole story and is on his way."
Qi Qingyi quickly asked, "How does Your Highness seem to be in a good mood?"
"Your Highness, you shouldn't have caused this trouble," the butler said calmly.
