Chapter 737 Why should I kneel?
As Wu Yue'er finished speaking, Song Ruozhen and the other two turned their gazes and saw that arrogant face.
Wu Yue'er continued to chatter on. She had previously inquired with Princess Liang and found that, apart from Princess Chu Muyao, Song Ruozhen did not have any friends of higher status.
Moreover, judging from the attire of these two people, they are indeed daughters of noble families, but unless they are members of the royal family, they are just ants that can be easily crushed in front of them!
Qi Qingyi snapped out of her daze after Wu Yue'er's reminder.
Song Ruozhen has a powerful background and is indeed not easy to mess with, but it wouldn't be difficult for us to bully the people around her first!
Since they dared to humiliate her like this today, neither of them will escape this calamity!
"Meng Qin, you must give this princess an explanation today, or you won't be leaving this shop!"
"What explanation do I need to give you? I've already apologized, but you're still being so unreasonable. That's just deliberately picking a fight!"
Meng Qin's eyes were full of disgust. She said that Ruozhen had such a good personality, and as long as the other party was not too extreme, they would not be irreconcilable.
After seeing this today, I finally understand. It would be strange if I could get along with someone like this!
It's fortunate that the Prince of Liang is in poor health, so the Princess Consort rarely appears in public; otherwise, she would surely be among the most troublesome figures in the capital.
"Is that an apology? It's not sincere at all. Even if you want to be Song Ruozhen's lackey and perform well in front of her, you should consider your own worth and see if I'm someone you can afford to mess with!"
Qi Qingyi's eyes were fierce. Although General Meng's family had a high status in the capital, it was still slightly inferior to her maternal family. Moreover, she was the Princess Consort of Liang, while Meng Qin was just a young lady from a noble family. What did she have to compare with her?
"It's true that a dog's mouth cannot spit out ivory!"
Song Ruozhen's expression turned cold. It was obvious that since they couldn't cause her any trouble, they started causing trouble for her friends.
I'm afraid if we don't resolve this matter today, there's no guarantee that this woman won't continue to make things difficult for Nianchu and the others when we get back.
"Song Ruozhen, Meng Qin stepped on my foot, so what's wrong with me asking her to apologize? You're not going to stop me from doing that, are you?"
A smug glint flashed in Qi Qingyi's eyes. "This is none of your business. If you try to interfere, even if you take it to the Prince, you will still be in the wrong."
Wu Yue'er nodded, "As a princess, you must let these people know your status. How dare they, daughters of noble families, easily offend you?"
"Meng Qin, you must kneel down and apologize to me!" Qi Qingyi said condescendingly.
If this woman were to kneel before him, it would be tantamount to severely humiliating Song Ruozhen.
When Yun Nianchu saw Qi Qingyi going so far, she couldn't help but say, "Is this woman sick? Did you hit a nerve with one sentence? How could she become like this?"
"That's just the kind of person she is. Even if you give her a nice look, she won't think it's because you're kind. She'll only think it's because she's of high status and extraordinary!"
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Song Ruozhen's eyes. It seemed that Qi Qingyi had been living too comfortably lately, which was why she could keep coming to cause trouble for her.
Since that's the case, let's keep this woman busy and troublesome, then she won't have the mind to cause trouble!
"What do we do now?" Yun Nianchu asked anxiously.
Song Ruozhen's lips curled slightly, "What's there to be afraid of? A hero will come to the rescue!"
Yun Nianchu was slightly taken aback, but then she noticed a figure rushing towards her from a distance and immediately understood.
"You want me to kneel before you? Keep dreaming! Impossible!" Meng Qin said bluntly.
How dare you speak to me like that!
Incredulity flashed in Qi Qingyi's eyes. It was one thing for Song Ruozhen to be arrogant in front of her, but what right did Meng Qin have to be so arrogant in front of her!
"It was clearly you who deliberately picked a fight. Although my Meng family is just an ordinary general's mansion, we are not people who can be bullied."
"If you're so capable, then go and ask the Emperor for an imperial edict to confiscate our General Meng's mansion!"
Meng Qin's face turned ashen. All the achievements of the Meng family were earned by their family members through real battles on the battlefield!
It's just a small matter now, and she doesn't believe that Princess Liang would dare to make a scene in the palace. Even if she did, the Meng family wouldn't be afraid!
Qi Qingyi's eyes widened; she hadn't expected Meng Qin to be such a tough nut to crack!
Seeing that Qi Qingyi's expression had changed and that she seemed less confident than before, Wu Yue'er couldn't help but feel disgusted. Wasn't she supposed to be a high and mighty princess? How come she couldn't even discipline a young lady from a noble family!
If this were in their Qi Yue Dynasty, and a mere young lady from a noble family dared to speak like that in front of her, she would have had her dragged away and beaten to death long ago!
"I see you've bought so many jewelry items, you must be getting married soon, right?"
Wu Yue'er glanced at Meng Qin, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes, "With looks like yours, what kind of good family can you marry into?"
“Naturally, it’s a good family you can’t marry into,” Meng Qin said meaningfully.
Wu Yue'er frowned slightly. Could she not marry into a good family?
She pondered for a moment, thinking that the first person she saw after arriving in the Chu You Dynasty was the King of Chu, but unfortunately the King of Chu had no idea what it meant to cherish a beautiful woman.
Forget about making him fall in love with me, I don't even have a chance to have any contact with him!
Thinking back to when she came in, she saw that Song Ruozhen had bought a lot of jewelry for this woman, and those things all looked quite valuable. An unbelievable thought instantly flashed through her mind—
"Are you perhaps the new concubine of the King of Chu?"
As the mistress of the house, it is only right for Song Ruozhen to choose some gifts for the concubine who is about to enter the household!
However, she really didn't expect that Song Ruozhen would be so arrogant in front of her, and actually help the King of Chu take a concubine behind his back!
Could it be that she was worried that her marriage would affect her position as princess, and that the prince would be unhappy about it, so she arranged for him to take a concubine?
She said, "How could a man possibly marry only one woman in his entire life?"
However, after Wu Yue'er said these words, there seemed to be a moment of silence around them.
Qi Qingyi was stunned, subconsciously feeling that it was impossible. Unless Song Ruozhen was crazy, how could she let her good sister become a concubine for the prince?
What a magnanimous heart it must take to do this!
Besides... given Meng Qin's personality, she probably wouldn't accept becoming someone's concubine!
Song Ruozhen and Meng Qin exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh. This woman must be out of her mind, otherwise how could she come up with such a bizarre idea?
"You're the concubine!" Meng Qin said with disgust. She would never stoop to being someone's concubine!
Seeing that the reactions of the others were genuine, Wu Yue'er became even more puzzled. What did this woman mean by what she said earlier?
"Never mind all that, kneel down and apologize!" Wu Yue'er felt humiliated and spoke even more fiercely.
However, a voice filled with anger suddenly came from outside the door.
Why should she kneel down and apologize?
