Chapter 352 The Cowardly Prince
Chapter 352 The Cowardly Prince
Today, she had to prove that she was domineering and arrogant. Otherwise, how could she be worthy of Ji Qingqing's false accusation?
Seeing that Ji Yuntang refused to let go, Ji Qingqing became anxious because she was afraid that if the quarrel continued it would be detrimental to Luo Jingshen!
"Sister, everyone makes mistakes sometimes. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't mean this at all. You over-interpreted and misunderstood. Why do you have to be so aggressive?"
Just as Ji Qingqing finished her words, a slap came from the sky, stunning her!
As soon as she reacted, she saw Ji Yuntang raised his right hand and slapped her hard in the face again.
"Snapped!"
The force was so great that her cheeks swelled instantly.
Ji Qingqing covered her face with her hands, her eyes red, and stared at Ji Yuntang in disbelief.
"You, you dare to hit me?"
"Why not?" Ji Yuntang raised his lips coldly, "This princess is arrogant and domineering. Those who disobey me will not have a good end. Isn't that what you said?"
"You just said that I am not good at understanding and you are aggressive. I am very unhappy after hearing that. I can only give you two slaps to make you remember today's shame."
"If you disobey me again, I will slap you in the face."
Ji Qingqing: "..."
Ji Qingqing: "!!!"
She remembered that these were what she had just said to Luo Jingshen, and now Ji Yuntang actually returned them to her intact?
Ji Qingqing felt that she was insulted. She was so aggrieved that she threw herself into Luo Jingshen's arms and burst into tears.
"Your Highness, please help me. My sister beat me in front of so many people. How can I live in the future?"
Luo Qianxue had been sitting down and watching the show. Now, when she saw Ji Qingqing and Ji Yuntang getting into a conflict, she suddenly felt that her chance to step forward had come!
Luo Qianxue immediately stood up and urged: "Miss Ji is right, Princess Ye is too arrogant!"
"If she dares to hit the Crown Princess today, she will hit the Crown Prince tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow she will hit my father. If this continues, our Dongchen Kingdom will be in chaos!"
Luo Qianxue was very excited. God knew how much she hated Luo Jingshen and Ji Yuntang.
Now that she had the chance to see the two of them fighting each other, Luo Qianxue started to make trouble with all her might.
"Princess Ye is a bully who takes advantage of her power. I am her sister-in-law, but I have been beaten by her many times. She doesn't even take us, the children of the royal family, seriously."
After she finished speaking, she shouted at Luo Jingshen again, "Second brother, your future crown princess is being bullied, don't you do anything about it?"
"If you do nothing today, how will the people view you as the crown prince in the future?"
"Enough!" Luo Jingshen roared, turned his head and stared at Ji Yuntang with bloodshot eyes, gritting his teeth and said:
"Princess Ye, it is not your turn to bully my people. I now order you to apologize to Miss Ji immediately!"
Ji Yuntang sneered, "If you want me to apologize, no problem."
"As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince apologizes to me first, I will apologize to Ji Qingqing. After all, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who said the wrong thing first."
"How about it? Is this a good deal?"
Luo Jingshen: "..."
Luo Jingshen: "!!!"
She is so brave!
How dare you ask him to apologize?
He angrily said: "I am not wrong, why should I apologize to you!"
Ji Yuntang spread his hands indifferently.
"Oh, then if that's the case, then this princess is not wrong either, and there's no need to apologize to Miss Ji Er!"
She never thought that Luo Jingshen would be so disgraced as to apologize to her.
So when beating Ji Qingqing, Ji Yuntang used almost all of his strength and showed no mercy at all.
Luo Feizhou, who was watching the fun, also started to speak: "I think what the Third Princess did was right. Not to mention that the Imperial Decree of the Emperor's marriage has not yet come down, Miss Ji is not yet the Crown Princess."
"From what she just said, on the surface she was saying that Young Master Jiang voluntarily gave up the competition, but in fact she was telling everyone that he was forced by Princess Ye, and she also portrayed Princess Ye as a shrew in the market."
"They are not real sisters, they are clearly enemies."
Ji Yuntang looked at Luo Feizhou in surprise. She knew very well that the other party said this deliberately to make things difficult for Luo Jingshen.
But she had to say, these words sounded particularly good coming out of his mouth. For the first time, she felt that Luo Feizhou had done something human.
Luo Jingshen even wanted to tear Luo Feizhou to pieces at this moment!
But he understood that what the other party said made sense.
The title of Crown Princess was just a verbal promise from him. If he wanted to confirm Ji Qingqing's identity, the only way was for Emperor Jingyang to issue an imperial decree, and then he would marry Ji Qingqing and put her name in the royal jade book, so that she would be the real Crown Princess.
Ji Qingqing at present is at most the second lady of the Yongning Marquis’ Mansion.
Luo Jingshen knew that he couldn't pursue the matter any further. If he did, he wouldn't get any benefit at all. So he patiently said to Ji Qingqing:
"Qingqing, let's just treat today's incident as a misunderstanding. Let's not bother about it anymore!"
"After today's competition is over, I will send someone to give you a bottle of the best jade face cream. Apply it on your face first. In two days, I will ask my father to grant us marriage."
Ji Qingqing's crying suddenly stopped, and she felt her heart sink.
Luo Jingshen said this because he wanted her to keep quiet and not pursue the matter any further!
So, the beating she received today was in vain?
Ji Qingqing had always wanted to marry the prince, thinking that the prince's status was superior to that of other princes and ministers, and her status and position would also rise accordingly, surpassing Ji Yuntang.
But now, for the first time, she felt that the prince could be so cowardly.
He didn't even have the courage to refute Luo Feizhou, so he could only let her swallow her grievances and keep the peace.
Ji Qingqing would be lying if she said she wasn't disappointed, but she couldn't show it on her face. She could only pretend to be obedient and cater to him.
"I will obey your Highness the Crown Prince."
Luo Jingshen was very satisfied with her ability to understand the current situation. He liked Ji Qingqing's obedient appearance.
In this way, she can use Ji Qingqing to control the entire Yongning Marquis Mansion.
Luo Jingshen gently touched Ji Qingqing's head, asked her maid to come over, and helped Ji Qingqing to the guest room inside to rest.
When Ji Qingqing was helped down by Cui Liu, her face changed immediately. She picked up the celadon vase on the table and was about to smash it, but was stopped in time by Cui Liu.
"Second Miss, you absolutely cannot do that. This belongs to Qianqiu Tower. If it is broken, it will be the end of us!"
Ji Qingqing said disdainfully: "Do you think I can't afford to pay for a broken vase?"
Having said that, she still put down the vase in her hand and smashed the aromatherapy ball on the cabinet instead.
Cui Liu had just placed the vase when she saw Ji Qingqing holding an aromatherapy ball in her hand and preparing to smash it. She was so scared that she almost lost her soul!
