Revenge of the Sixth Young Lady

Chapter 423

Chapter 423 Pack Up Immediately and Go Back

Princess Nan’an knew about it! How could she not know that such a mess had happened? When she saw her niece come over with her head drooping, followed by Wei Yuewu who was obviously injured, the Fourth Prince who had a cold face, and her son who was also listless, she immediately made up her mind.

“Jia’nan, pack up immediately and go back to your parents!” Princess Nan’an said coldly.

“Aunt!” Prefectural Princess Jia’nan did not expect that Princess Nan’an did not intend to help her at all. Prefectural Princess Jia’nan cried out anxiously. She had come to the capital this time to celebrate the New Year. Her father had also vaguely expressed that he could materialize the marriage between her and the Fourth Prince.

Originally, Prefectural Princess Jia’nan believed that with her status and the Fourth Prince’s affection toward her, it would only be a matter of time before their relationship happened. However, not only did she fail to accomplish anything here, but she also was ordered to go back in such a sorry state. How could she be willing?

“Hurry up and leave!” Princess Nan’an, who used to dote on her, had no intention of standing up for her today and ordered coldly.

Prefectural Princess Jia’nan still wanted to argue, but she was stared at by Princess Nan’an callously. She could only leave the room with tears in her eyes. However, when she walked past Wei Yuewu, she gritted her teeth and glared at Wei Yuewu before leaving with her maid.

“Madam Dowager, Jia’nan grew up in the capital and saved the Fourth Prince when she was a child. The relationship between her and Fourth Prince is good. In the palace, the Empress and Zhaoyi Tu liked her, but we didn’t expect that she would actually be fooled to do such a thing! How could she, who has just arrived at Prince Nan’an Mansion, know such a strange spot? I hope you can forgive her, Madam Dowager!”

Princess Nan’an sighed as she turned to Madam Dowager and smiled bitterly.

These words were very meaningful, but they also showed that Prefectural Princess Jia’nan was actually made use of by others.

“They are all children who don’t understand things. How can they play around with this kind of thing?” Madam Dowager coughed softly, looking as if what happened was not a big deal.

Wei Yuewu sat there with her head down. Under her long eyelashes, her eyes were calm. She did not seem to care about what Madam Dowager said, but in fact, her eyes were cold. She was not seriously injured, but if she had fallen for the trick, she would have been half-dead. That poisonous snake was real…

It seemed that Princess Nan’an was not the only one who knew about this matter. Even Madam Dowager understood it. Therefore, she wanted to suppress this matter together and cover up for Wei Fengyao. No matter what, Wei Fengyao was a legitimate daughter of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, and now she was Prince Nan’an Mansion’s Heiress-apparent. However, even if Wei Fengyao had the protection of Princess Nan’an and Madam Dowager, she could not get away…

Princess Nan’an had chased away her own niece. Of course, she would not fall into a disadvantageous position just like that. After all, the matter of Wei Fengyao was also a matter of the two families. It was something that would embarrass both families.

However, the matter of Prefectural Princess Jia’nan was Prince Nan’an Mansion’s matter. Since Princess Nan’an had chased away her own niece, how could the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang be acquitted completely?

“Third Miss, you were the one who brought the Fourth Prince and Ruoming over. I wonder who told you that Jia’nan and the Sixth Young Lady were arguing?” Sure enough, in the next moment, Princess Nan’an’s face turned cold. She heavily put down the teacup in her hand before looking at Wei Yuejiao and asking harshly.

An originally good plan had ended up like this. It was indeed because of Wei Fengyao, but if Wei Yuejiao had not invited the Fourth Prince over, the matter would not have blown up. Jia’nan would not have been seen framing Wei Yuewu by the Fourth Prince. If she stayed any longer, it would only disgust the Fourth Prince.

Princess Nan’an’s family had intended to marry Prefectural Princess Jia’nan to the Fourth Prince. But this was not a matter of one or two days. Now that the Fourth Prince saw this side of Prefectural Princess Jia’nan, Princess Nan’an was furious. Wei Fengyao was considered someone under her mansion, but what about this Third Miss Wei?

She should be under the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, right?

Ever since Wei Yuejiao noticed that Wei Yuewu had only suffered some superficial injuries, she had been filled with resentment. She secretly hated Wei Yuewu for being so lucky. Not only was Wei Yuewu fine, but she also even made people see that Prefectural Princess Jia’nan wanted to harm her.

Now when Wei Yuejiao followed everyone over, she could only droop her head weakly. She did not have much spirit in her.

In her heart, Wei Yuejiao secretly thought that it was such a pity that Wei Yuewu was able to escape even though it was such a meticulous plan from Eldest Sister. Everything happened in Prince Nan’an Mansion and Prefectural Princess Jia’nan was even involved!

After returning, she would definitely tell Concubine Dong to be more careful!

Speaking of which, Wei Fengyao was too stupid. How could she let Wei Yuewu escape like this! If it had been in the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, and things had already come to this, it was impossible for Wei Yuejiao to let Wei Yuewu escape unscathed…

Just as Wei Yuejiao was thinking about it, she suddenly heard Princess Nan’an mentioning her. She subconsciously let out an “ah” sound and looked up to meet Princess Nan’an’s cold eyes. Only then did she realize what was going on.

“I… I was here to see Eldest Sister.”

“If you were going to find Fengyao, why did you bring her over here?” Princess Nan’an did not plan to let Wei Yuejiao off the hook today and continued to ask.

“It’s… It’s a maid who came to report that Sixth Younger Sister and Prefectural Princess Jia’nan were fighting. Eldest Sister asked me to invite the heir-apparent over to persuade them. Coincidentally, the Fourth Prince was also here!” This was what Wei Fengyao had taught Wei Yuejiao before. In fact, these words did sound reasonable.

Prefectural Princess Jia’nan was Wen Ruoming’s cousin sister. If she really fought with someone in the Prince Nan’an Mansion, it would be reasonable for Wen Ruoming to go and check it out.

But the problem was that at this time, Princess Nan’an was full of anger and had no place to vent it. Hearing Wei Yuejiao’s words, she sneered. “Third Miss, you are really good at talking. Even if Jia’nan had a dispute with Sixth Miss Wei, you as a young lady of the inner courtyard did not report the matter to me but instead went to the front yard to inform Ruoming. Anyone not in the know might think that you were closer to Ruoming than me.”

These words made Wei Yuejiao blush, but she could not say a word to refute.

A young lady of an aristocratic family being more familiar with a stranger man—the meaning of this was enough to make Wei Yuejiao ashamed.

“Princess, it should be that Yuejiao doesn’t know better. Now that Prefectural Princess Jia’nan was implicated to be punished, I really feel bad. Yuejiao, hurry up and give Princess a bow.”

Madam Dowager coughed and scolded in a low voice.

These words sounded like a reprimand, and it faintly indicated that Wei Yuejiao and Prefectural Princess Jia’nan were tied together on the same boat.

If it was not a good idea for Wei Yuejiao to call Wen Ruoming over, then what Prefectural Princess Jia’nan did was even worse. Her viciousness was really outrageous!

“Yes… Princess… It was me who didn’t think too much in a hurry. I caused Prefectural Princess Jia’nan to suffer. I… When I go back, I am willing to be grounded.” Wei Yuejiao lowered her head, gritted her teeth, and apologized in shame.

People had to lower themselves when they were under someone else’s eaves. Of course, there was a limit to how much Wei Yuejiao lowered herself. Therefore, she only said that she would be grounded but she did not mention for how long.

“Princess, calm down. Speaking of Yuejiao, sigh…” Madam Dowager stood up and spoke up for Wei Yuejiao. No matter what, she was the one who sent people to invite Wei Yuejiao here. Wei Yuewu had already met with an accident. If Wei Yuejiao got into trouble too, Madam Dowager would not be able to explain it to Wei Luowen when she returned to the mansion.

“Madam Dowager, forget it. She is just a child. Speaking of which, the Third Miss is Fifth Young Lady’s elder sister. And Fifth Young Lady is a well-behaved and lovable lady,” Princess said slowly.

“Hmm…” Madam Dowager hesitated for a moment. Her face was a little gloomy, but in the end, she gritted her teeth and glared at Wei Yuejiao in anger. “Princess, everything will be up to your orders!”

Wei Yuewu saw all of this. A trace of imperceptible depth flashed through her eyes. It seemed that Madam Dowager and Princess had been discussing something before and had not reached an agreement. Now, because of Wei Yuejiao’s interference, Madam Dowager had no choice but to give in. This concession made Madam Dowager very frustrated and aggrieved.

Or rather, this had harmed the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang’s interests.

To be able to harm Marquis Hua Yang’s interests, and to be related to what had happened today, could it be that Prince Nan’an Mansion had prepared to take another concubine at the same time that Wei Qiuju entered the mansion? What Madam Dowager cared about most was not Wei Qiuju’s happiness, but who would the next Heir-apparent of Prince Nan’an be.

If there was another high-ranking concubine, it would be hard to say who would become the next heir-apparent in the future…

“Sixth Young Lady, how are your injuries?” Princess Nan’an was very satisfied with Madam Dowager’s concession. A faint smile appeared on her face, and she no longer talked about Wei Yuejiao.

“Thank you, Princess. I’m fine!” At this time, Wei Yuewu had already recovered. Her watery eyes were slightly raised, and her eyes were calm as she responded.

If not for the fact that her clothes were still a little messy and her face was too pale, it would have been hard to tell that she had almost died from a snakebite just now. For her to be able to recover so quickly, even Princess Nan’an could not help but look at her a few more times and secretly praised her in her heart.

How many people could compare with her in terms of bearing and temperament?

“Do you want us to invite a few more imperial doctors to treat you?” Princess Nan’an asked kindly.

“No need. The imperial doctor just now has already applied medicine for me. The injury on my hand is not serious. It’s just that Prefectural Princess Jia’nan pushed me slightly heavily.” Wei Yuewu quietly downplayed the matter.

Although everyone knew that Prefectural Princess Jia’nan was up to no good, since the matter had been suppressed, Wei Yuewu obediently brushed aside the matter.

Sure enough, after Wei Yuewu’s understated words, Princess Nan’an’s impression of Wei Yuewu became better and better. The smile on her face also became a bit more sincere. She was thinking to say a few more words of concern, and she would reward Wei Yuewu with some accessories later as compensation, which meant this matter was considered over.

After a period of time, Princess Nan’an would ask Jia’nan to come back to the capital. Since the Crown Prince was in the midst of choosing a consort, the Fourth Prince’s matter would have to be pushed behind after the Crown Prince had chosen a consort. At that time, the matter would be whitewashed. Moreover, she was the one who drove Jia’nan away, so it could be considered a heavy punishment. With a few soft words now, the Fourth Prince’s matter would be considered over.

Speaking of which, the matters she discussed with Madam Dowager were all handled according to what she intended. It was just that Jia’nan alone was aggrieved. As for the rest, Prince Nan’an Mansion did not suffer any losses.

After thinking about this, Princess Nan’an took a liking to Wei Yuewu more and more. With Jia’nan’s status, if she married the Fourth Prince, she would have the identity of Princess Consort. Although Wei Yuewu’s status was noble, it was still inferior to Jia’nan. If the Fourth Prince liked her, he could marry her as well. One would be the princess and the other secondary concubine. It could be considered a good ending!

Suddenly, a young maid hurriedly ran in and arrived in front of Princess Nan’an. She knelt down and reported, “Princess, Marquis Hua Yang sent someone to pick up Sixth Miss Wei!”
