Chapter 1284: Chapter 1239: Who Dares Look Down on Her
With a swish,
Jiang Zhizhi’s face turned pale.
"No, no no no, Your Highness Prince Ning, I didn’t, I really didn’t." Her head shook like a bobblehead, and even if Jiang Zhizhi had ten times the courage, she wouldn’t dare admit to it.
The other women were also anxious to deny it, "Yes, yes, yes, we didn’t, we didn’t, Your Highness Prince Ning, don’t listen to that woman’s nonsense, we didn’t."
"Nonsense?"
Su Yunjin scoffed coldly, "Miss Jiang, whether you said those words or not, you know in your hearts! Just now, aside from you, there were quite a few maids and servants from Prince Qi Residence around, so whether you said it or not, these maids and servants heard everything clearly."
Su Yunjin was right.
Today, the Prince Qi Residence was hosting a celebration for the Little Prince’s full moon, and this was the front courtyard where guests gathered to drink tea and chat. With many guests, the Prince Qi Residence naturally arranged for servants to be on standby here, and just now, a few servants had overheard their conversation.
Jiang Zhizhi and those women were focused on denying it, thinking that as long as they didn’t admit it, Su Yunjin could do nothing to them; however, they had forgotten about the presence of the maids and servants.
Now with Su Yunjin’s statement, Prince Ning only needed to casually inquire one or two servants around to know if they had said those words.
Jiang Zhizhi and the other women trembled in fright, their faces pale; Prince Ning wasn’t a fool, what else was there not to understand?
Without even looking at the other women, Prince Ning casually asked a maid named Suisui, "You tell us, just recount what you just witnessed."
Suisui nodded.
She stepped forward and spoke truthfully, "Your Highness, I indeed heard Miss Jiang and the other young ladies here, apart from looking down on Madam Su’s status, also assumed the role of the host of Prince Qi Residence."
As soon as Suisui finished speaking,
a shudder went through the hearts of Jiang Zhizhi and the women.
It’s over!
It’s over!
This time, it’s truly over!
Prince Ning now knew the truth.
Jiang Zhizhi and the others feared nothing more than disdaining Su Yunjin, whose status was already low, and they hadn’t taken to heart their words disparaging Su Yunjin.
They were just stating the truth, after all.
Could it be that one can’t even speak the truth now?
What they now feared was that initially, they had accidentally spoken out of turn, claiming to be the hosts of the Prince Qi Residence, without giving much thought to it, purely to embarrass Su Yunjin.
They had not anticipated that their casual words would give Su Yunjin leverage over them. Now that Prince Ning was aware of this, they didn’t know how he would deal with them!
Just as Jiang Zhizhi and the women were guilt-ridden, pondering how to excuse themselves, the consort of Prince Rui suddenly appeared; she had clearly heard Suisui’s words as soon as she arrived.
"Madam Su is an honored guest invited by this palace, who dares to disdain her low status?" The sudden appearance of the consort of Prince Rui caught everyone off guard.
Especially Jiang Zhizhi and her group were stunned and rooted to the spot.
They even forgot to pay their respects to the consort of Prince Rui as usual.
Su Yunjin hadn’t expected the consort of Prince Rui to suddenly show up either, but compared to Jiang Zhizhi and her group, Su Yunjin was visibly pleased. How wonderful, the consort of Prince Rui had come at just the right time?
Now, there would be an even better show to watch.
Besides having Prince Ning’s support,
now there was another ally in the consort of Prince Rui.
