Ning Yanran was stunned, she didn't expect Shen Luoxi to ridicule her like this.
Her face flushed, and her sharp nails dug deeply into her palms. The stinging pain barely allowed her to restrain the anger in her heart.
"I am indeed not as good as my sister..." She gritted her teeth and said, "It's just that my sister is so extravagant. I don't know how she will be discussed if word gets out."
"My sister also cares about my sister's reputation. If she feels that she talks too much, just shut up."
Her eyes were slightly red, and she didn't know that she thought Shen Luoxi had bullied her.
Shen Luoxi watched her acting with interest, but Xiao Yueze, who was standing behind her, had a dark face.
"The princess went out to treat your illness today. The adults thanked the princess and gave her some gifts. The concubine has never encountered such a thing, so she will naturally feel that the princess is extravagant and wasteful."
"Even if the princess is serious about it, the concubine is just a concubine. She dares to say something wrong about the princess. She should be dealt with according to the family law."
Xiao Yueze looked at Ning Yanran coldly, frightening her so much that she couldn't help shaking her body.
Ning Yanran delicately raised her handkerchief to cover her face, "My sister's guard is so unruly. When I was talking to my sister, he dared to interrupt me and my sister. I should discipline my sister well."
Shen Luoxi sneered and looked at her as if he was watching a joke.
"Did he make a mistake?"
"Sister, it's true that I haven't seen much of the world. My guard gave me a few words of advice. Why is there no rules?"
Ning Yanran was stunned, and Shen Luoxi continued: "Tomorrow I will ask someone to hire a tutor for my sister to teach her well, so that she will not have to face the prince."
After that, she took Xiao Yueze and Xue Yu across Ning Yanran.
Ning Yanran clenched her hands into fists, and her pretty face turned ferocious.
The maid next to her was shivering and hiding aside, not daring to speak.
Ning Yanran took a deep breath, turned around and strode back to the yard.
As soon as the maid closed the courtyard door, she was slapped hard on the face.
"Did I tell you to close the door? Open it!"
The maid's eyes were red and she hurriedly opened the door again, fearing that she would be slapped again if it was too late.
But when she turned her head, the next slap fell on the other half of her face.
She was beaten until she fell to the ground, and then she heard Ning Yanran curse: "When I was humiliated by that guard just now, why didn't you say anything like a dead man!"
"Are you laughing at me like that guard because I haven't seen the world? You bitch! You deserve to die just like that guard!"
The maid knelt down in front of her in panic and explained tremblingly: "This slave does not..."
Ning Yanran looked at her fiercely, raised her foot and kicked her in the stomach hard.
"It's all because you didn't speak up for me that I was humiliated by that despicable guard!"
The strength on her feet became stronger every time, and even when the maid begged for mercy, she turned a deaf ear.
This kind of torture did not stop until Ning Yanran was tired. She walked to the stone bench and sat down. The maid in the courtyard hurriedly stepped forward to put the dying maid down, so that Ning Yanran would not be unhappy.
Ning Yanran was a little calmer, but her brows and eyes were still filled with resentment.
She didn't understand why Shen Luoxi didn't die in the palace! Why can Shen Luoxi come back alive?
If Shen Luoxi died, the position of the head wife would definitely belong to her. How could she still be so angry?
Ning Yanran became angrier and angrier as she thought about it, and at the same time she was slightly worried.
Today's Shen Luoxi is so powerful, both in talent and appearance, far surpassing her.
It's not that she can't see how much Cang Yunxuan attaches great importance to Shen Luoxi...
Ning Yanran lowered her face and called the maid, "Where is the prince?"
"The prince hasn't come back yet." The maid came back.
Ning Yanran frowned, "What I want to know is where the prince has gone. I don't want you to answer that he hasn't come back."
The maid trembled and said, "Concubine, please forgive me, I will go and inquire about it now!"
She trotted out of the yard and almost bumped into Cang Yunxuan.
"See you, my lord!"
When Ning Yanran heard this, she did not stand up to greet him, but turned her head to the side.
Cang Yunxuan ignored the hurried-looking maid. He strode to Ning Yanran's side and then noticed Ning Yanran's weirdness.
"Yanran, what's wrong?"
He gently held Ning Yanran's shoulders, but Ning Yanran still didn't turn to look at him.
Cang Yunxuan frowned slightly and used some strength to turn Ning Yanran's head towards her, and then she saw a pair of eyes red from crying.
He wiped away Ning Yanran's tears distressedly and asked softly: "What happened? If you are wronged, just tell me and I will make the decision for you."
Ning Yanran threw herself into his arms and said in a choked voice: "I, I just miss the prince so much..."
Cang Yunxuan patted her back gently, "You said you were not wronged, but you burst into tears. Did the princess reprimand you?"
Ning Yanran raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes, "No matter how my sister scolds me, it is appropriate. After all, in my eyes, I am just a slave who has no place on the stage..."
"Your Majesty, please don't blame your sister. As long as I can stay by your side, I will be satisfied."
When Cang Yunxuan heard what she said, he hugged her much harder, "Yanran, it's great to have you by my side."
Ning Yanran raised her head from his arms and said, "Your Majesty and your sister often go in and out together recently. Will Your Majesty fall in love with your sister and stop being a concubine?"
"I am not as beautiful as my sister, and I don't have the same medical skills as my sister..."
Before she could finish her words, the tears that had just stopped flowed down again.
Cang Yunxuan chuckled and said, "Do you think I am someone who values appearance?"
Ning Yanran shook her head obediently, "It's just that my sister is really beautiful, and I feel ashamed to be her beauty."
"Fool, I have never seen her appearance. Even if she is an immortal, it has nothing to do with me."
Ning Yanran's eyes flashed and she sighed softly, "I naturally believe what the prince said, but... the guard next to my sister is really mean in what he says..."
Cang Yunxuan frowned, "What did he say?"
"I really can't say anything..." Ning Yanran said with red eyes.
"If you don't tell me, how can I make the decision for you?"
Ning Yanran hesitated for a moment before speaking: "My sister's bodyguard said that I have no rules and I should teach me a lesson according to the family law."
"But I just said a few words to my sister, and the guard was so disrespectful. I'm afraid that in the future he will not even look down on the prince."
Cang Yunxuan's face darkened, Ning Yanran observed calmly, and then added, "I don't know if these words were taught by my sister..."
"Why do you need the princess to teach you these words?"
Xiao Yueze stood in the yard at some point and looked at Ning Yanran coldly.
Ning Yanran was so frightened that she hid in Cang Yunxuan's arms and heard him say coldly, "The concubine does one thing in front of her and another behind her back. Even if she is white in front of the prince, she can be called black."
