Secondary Consort Sun said angrily,”Who are you? How dare you shout in front of this Secondary Consort…”
She was also in so much pain that her eyes went crazy. She looked at the two palace maids in front of her and waved her hand without even moving. “You fools, I told you to go and get a doctor. Why are you still surrounding me?!”
The palace maid covered her face and did not dare to refute.
“This servant is here to take care of the secondary consort…The Crown Princess had already sent for a doctor.”
“Then, why hasn’t he come after so long? It hurts so much. Crown Princess, you’re deliberately trying to burn me to death. When I see the Crown Prince later, I will definitely not ask him to spare you.”
Secondary Consort Sun’s face was perfectly fine, not even a drop of water was on it. Half a pot of hot water was poured on her body. It was hateful that these people were all gathered around to watch the show, but not a single one of them extended a helping hand. They were filled with anger and vented it on the Crown Princess Consort.
In the Eastern Palace, the Crown Princess was the official. She was in charge of the Eastern Palace’s inner residence, but the Secondary Consort Sun was domineering and arrogant. Her slim waist and plump buttocks were the Crown Prince’s favorite, and she ran amok in the Eastern Palace.
Supposedly, it was not the turn of Secondary Consort Sun to come out at this kind of occasion, but the Crown Prince indulged her, and the Crown Princess could do nothing about it.
With Secondary Consort Sun clamoring, everyone immediately knew what was going on. Other than the He family standing up for the Crown Princess, everyone else only watched from the sidelines.
The crown prince consort only indifferently ordered people to carry Secondary Consort Sun back to her room and change her clothes first.
“You’re just too good-natured, that’s why she’s so arrogant.”Jiang Xia Princess Yang shi was a twenty-five or twenty-six year old round-faced woman. She looked beautiful and gentle, but her personality was a little fierce.
Back when Jiang Xia King followed Emperor Yu Heng, his entire family, including his son and his wife, had been killed by the deposed emperor. The one he was marrying now was a second wife. The moment she married into the family, she gave birth to two children in a year and three children in two years. All of them were brats. Jiang Xia King doted on her so much that she was not like him. In the royal family, she was also someone who dared to say and do things.
She came out of the room and slowly watched the whole scene.
The crown prince consort lowered her eyes and smiled. The crown prince wasn’t someone who knew what was going on. If she continued to cause trouble, was she afraid that the eastern palace would fall slower?
“The Crown Princess is virtuous.” Mother Xie didn’t stick to the pot and was only responsible for praising. She had nothing to do with other people’s rotten peaches.
Only Xiao Baoxin looked on coldly, Sun Ceifei was going to be deposed.
He was just pouring a pot of hot water on his body. He was not in a hurry to untie his clothes and pour water on his body. Instead, he had been arguing with his family for so long. Even if the doctor came, he would still have to scar it.
Just a secondary consort serving others with her beauty, leaving a scar on her body was basically equivalent to being crippled.
The Crown Princess’s unhurried posture, not even caring about her own sprained ankle, just wearing a few bloody marks on her face, was deliberately dragging down the Secondary Consort Sun, but she might not be a truly virtuous person. However, it was none of her business.
Xiao Baoxin had Xie Xie protecting him, so he didn’t even complain.
Walking up to the fourth floor, Mrs. Yuan was afraid that there would be people who would rush in recklessly, so she immediately stood in front of Xiao Baoxin to protect him. Xie Wan also followed suit and stood to the side. Xiao Ning also reacted when she saw it. Xiao Baoxin had a body, so he also stepped forward.
Therefore, the Xie family’s door gods blocked Xiao Baoxin from the back. Fortunately, she was a little tall and could still be seen by others. Otherwise, when they looked for her, they would think that she had hit and run.
Xiao Baoxin was so touched.
Especially her mother-in-law, who held her hand while blocking her. Her heart was filled with anger. Whoever dared to come forward to find trouble, she was prepared to fight back.
What could she say? Her mother was a well-organized person. She had already prepared a draft in her heart for how she would scold others!
Some sharp-eyed people could not help but smack their lips when they saw this. This was like marrying an ancestor and getting pregnant with a father.
Which of the women in the room was not capable of giving birth and raising children? Did they have to be so delicate? She wasn’t afraid that the hair oil on her head would suffocate her living ancestor.
The He family’s head followed the crown prince consort into the Heaven Room. When the others saw that there was no fighting, the gongs and drums outside were tight and the sound was earth-shattering. The people’s shouts had also started. The dragon boat race had clearly begun, so they all returned to their rooms.
The Ruyi Pavilion had placed bets in the past, and they were not short of money. They wanted to take a chance and earn a sum of money from it.
In the end, because of this incident, the bets had already been sealed before they could even place all their bets. The Xie family definitely did not place any more bets. A few of them wanted to ask around and know their enemy, but in the end, they did not place any bets after such a delay.
The manager of the Ruyi Restaurant shook his head and sighed. He couldn’t afford to get into trouble. Prince Jiang Xia was backing him up. With this incident, they had lost several thousand taels of silver.
Although it was a small fight, it was enough for ordinary people to live a carefree life.

After the Xie family entered the yellow room, no one was in the mood to watch the boat race. Their room was diagonally facing the Emperor’s viewing platform. The dragon boat had already set off. If they wanted to watch, they could only lean on the window and look far away. They could not see the noon and noon.
“I’ve caused trouble for the Xie family.” Xiao Baoxin wanted to be lenient and take the initiative.
Even though she didn’t think it was her fault, she still had to say what she needed to say and show the attitude she needed.
Mother Xie smiled and did not take it seriously. Instead, she held her hand and smiled.
“Don’t say that. You’re still Grandmother’s savior. If it wasn’t for you, that teacup would have smashed into my head. If it didn’t kill me, I would have been scared to death…Fortunately, I have you by my side. Otherwise, 1 would have been in trouble. Why did you react so quickly?”
The more Mother Xie looked at her, the more she liked her.” 1’11 have to bring you around often in the future. You’re much more useful than these sons and daughters-in-law. You can save lives at critical moments.””
Madam Yuan said,”Mother is right. 1 didn’t even react to what was going on when I heard the higher-ups shouting…” Baoxin, are you scared? Did you stretch it anywhere?”
He almost touched Xiao Baoxin’s stomach to confirm it.
“It’s alright, Mother.” Xiao Baoxin shook his head.
“Since it’s fine, Mother should see if we should go to the Crown Princess ‘side to take a look.”Mrs. Yuan stood up. It seemed like she was planning to do it personally.
Madam Wang did not feel good in her heart. It did not matter if she had brought Xie Wan to learn how to take charge of the family these few days. She would have to marry out sooner or later, but the Xie family was still in Madam Wang’s hands. What did she mean by going past her? Was Madam Yuan trying to stand up for her pregnant daughter-in-law and snatch the food first?
She was a little obsessed now, thinking about conspiracy theories.
Just as she was about to get up, she heard Mother Xie’s words and called Madam Yuan over.
Twelfth Aunt Wang saw that her aunt’s butt was half raised, but before she could make a sound, it was already stuck out. She smiled and covered it up,”To be honest, I still don’t know who threw the teacup. Was it intentional or unintentional? They were not mountain villagers, so they should know that the guests who came to the Ruyi Pavilion today were all distinguished guests.. Why did they throw a teacup? How angry were they?”
