The Princess Consort and the Princess Consort of Wei were certainly not on good terms.
Jiang Ning didn’t care about them at all, but they still hypocritically maintained a superficial harmony.
Princess Consort’s words were clearly a veiled mockery of the ugliness of the Princess Consort of Wei.
Objectively speaking, the Princess Consort of Wei wasn’t ugly; it’s just that when she stood among the graceful, or dazzling wives, she seemed a bit ordinary.
Princess Consort of Wei sneered, “Princess Consort, you’d better worry about yourself. I heard the Crown Prince has taken in two more concubines, all of them as beautiful as goddesses.”
That hit a nerve.
Ms. Ma immediately pulled a long face and said, “Those women are just playthings, what’s the use of mere beauty? In just two or three years, when men grow tired of them, they’ll be cast aside. I am the legal wife, and I have a son by my side, what do I have to be afraid of?”
These words were mocking Princess Consort of Wei for not giving birth to a son for Prince of Wei.
Princess Consort of Wei had a stifled feeling in her heart.
She angrily threw the spoon into the pot.
Jiang Ning, holding her hand warmer, listened to their open and veiled sniping with great interest.
Of course, she wouldn’t help them, even if she didn’t have to do it herself.
If it wasn’t for the fact that this was food for ordinary people, she would have already tampered with the porridge, poisoning these two despicable women.
“Princess Consort, our porridge is gone, but they won’t leave,” Dongxie approached and whispered softly.
“Let them wait. We’ll go back to our mansion to eat porridge. Xiaoman, come here.”
Xiaoman quickly jumped over and pushed her wheelchair, leaving the scene with her servants under the gaze of the crowd.
The commoners who were lining up to catch a glimpse of her beauty had no choice but to join the queues at the other wives’ stations when they saw her leave.
Princess Consort snorted, “This Princess Consort of Yu just left like that? Doesn’t she see the commoners eagerly waiting? There are even many children here, and yet she has the heart to leave.”
However, Jiang Ning had not gone far and heard this.
She turned back and said, “Since you’re such a saintly figure, Princess Consort, why not take all these commoners home to feed and clothe them? Look at yourself, decked in gold and silver, enjoying luxurious life. Now look at those poor people who can’t afford food or accessories. Can you bear it?”
Princess Consort’s face turned green in an instant.
Jiang Ning raised her voice and said to the queueing commoners, “You all heard it. After all, I’m a heartless person. But our Princess Consort here, she’s truly a living bodhisattva. If you have any difficulties, go to her for help, and she’ll definitely satisfy you all.”
Although most people wouldn’t believe her words, there were always some who would in a large crowd.
Sure enough, there were those who loved to stir things up and immediately swarmed around the Princess Consort of Wei.
Princess Consort’s face turned pale with fright, “What… what are you doing?”
“Your Highness, I have an eighty-year-old mother at home who is very sick, and I lack twenty taels of silver for her treatment. Can you help?”
“Lady, my family’s farmland has been occupied for several acres, and we haven’t heard anything about the lawsuit. You are a noble person, please help us hurry up those officials in the Yamen… ”
“Your Highness, I want to marry a wife… ”
Princess Consort’s head buzzed, “What does your marriage have to do with me?”
“I have taken a liking to one of the maids by your side… ”
“How dare you!” the Crown Prince’s personal maid’s pretty face flushed red, “Someone come! Drive these ruffians away!”
Only then did the Imperial Guards come forward to disperse the surrounding commoners.
Jiang Ning smiled playfully, “It seems that Princess Consort isn’t as kind- hearted as people think.”
