The Devious First Daughter

Chapter 124. Devastating Failure

Ning Xueyan avoided her quietly, smiled, and stepped aside. "Please go first, princess."

"It's not a big deal. Since we are now members of the prince's mansion, we should naturally call each other sister, and there is no need to show so much courtesy. During the time you left, I was afraid that you would go the wrong way and especially asked Her Highness the Empress to look for you." Commandery Princess Xianyun, who seemed to be in a good mood, showed that she did not care about what happened last night at all and deliberately talked to her with a friendly attitude. Her eyes and brows were relaxed, and her manner was dignified and generous.

"Thank you, princess." Ning Xueyan nodded meekly. Knowing that Commandery Princess Xianyun had something to tell her, she walked side by side with Commandery Princess Xianyun sensibly.

Seeing her coming in with her sensibly, Commandery Princess Xianyun showed a slight satisfaction on her face. "Fifth Young Lady Ning seems to have a little good vision. Although I, the princess, did not get a good result last night, she, the consort, was also defeated by a concubine. Since she bit the corner of her lips so deeply, she must have had so much hatred; otherwise, she would not have bitten herself so hard.

"It's good she has anger!"

For Commandery Princess Xianyun, she had made up her mind to deal with this concubine before being married into the mansion. "In the prince's mansion of mine, I will not allow other women to have a higher position than mine, so I can never let this woman live.

"Although I can't let her live, I can't say it myself. Now it's good because there is this consort who has 'anger'. No matter what happens, I can make her my scapegoat. I can completely take her as my tool. Since she could even show up in front of others calmly today, I know she is not easy to deal with.

"That's just what I want. Let the favored concubine confront Ning Xueyan. I'll only need to add fuel to the flame on the side."

The two entered the mansion with their own minds, but Ao Chenyi did not leave. Instead, he stayed at the mansion gate, with his hands clasped behind his back, waiting there coldly. He looked calm and had luxuries in his elegance, but the look in his eyes was a little cold.

The two, who did not expect that he had not left, had to take one step forward to respectively salute him and say "prince".

Ao Chenyi's narrowed eyes fell on Commandery Princess Xianyun's face, making her heart shudder involuntarily. Instantly, she remembered the words of this morning and bowed her head hurriedly.

"You may stop caring about the affairs of the Fragrance Garden." Ao Chenyi lowered his eyes coldly and looked at Commandery Princess Xianyun, but the corners of his eyes were raised slightly.

Commandery Princess Xianyun only felt that she had anger in her chest, which she wanted to let out but could not. "I am the princess of the prince's mansion, but on the first night of my wedding, I could only watch a concubine blatantly challenge my authority and take Ao Chenyi away, leaving me, such a princess, to stay alone in the wedding chamber.

"This is a living example of slapping me in the face.

"How could a woman from a humble background have a higher position than mine?

"Now Ao Chenyi is even telling me not to care about the affairs of that courtyard."

"Prince, the Fragrance Garden is part of the inner courtyard of the prince's mansion, so why don't you let me manage it? Sister Ning and I have just been married into the prince's mansion, and we are not clear about so many things in it, but some things can perhaps be related to the Fragrance Garden. If something is related to it, do you want me and Sister Ning to care about it or not, prince?"
