You are not fit to be this prince's pawn!
Dou Quan was just about to depart when he heard a woman's shouts from outside.
What the hell?
"What's wrong?" Jing Yi asked.
Dou Quan craned his neck to look and saw Ji Muqing rush into the courtyard, dressed in a bright red wedding gown, her hair disheveled.
"Your Highness, it's the Princess Consort."
Jing Yi's brows furrowed fiercely when he heard this, revealing a look of disgust.
It was as if he had eaten a bag of sh * t!
The moment Ji Muqing stepped in, Chen Xiang followed closely behind.
Unlike the former, the latter was striding forward gracefully.
Ji Muqing rushed into the room and glared at the calm Jing Yi with bloodshot eyes.
She questioned loudly, "You've clearly married me, why are you treating me like this?"
Jing Yi glanced at her. "Treating you like this? How has this prince treated you? "
Playing dumb!
"Yesterday was our wedding night, but you left me alone in the bridal chamber, alone in an empty room. Such humiliation …" She sniffled, her eyes turning sour as a few drops of tears fell from her eyes.
"Princess Consort, this prince had important matters to attend to yesterday, so I wasn't able to consummate my marriage with you. It's this prince's fault, but now that you're the Princess Consort, your words and actions should be restrained. It's fine if you haven't changed out of your clothes, but how are you behaving like a Princess Consort?"
A false accusation!
Jing Yi was the best!
Ji Muqing's body trembled when she heard this. Only now did she realize that she was in a sorry state, like a shrew.
She was instantly rendered speechless, and even paced backwards.
In contrast, Chen Xiang, who was standing behind her, was dressed neatly and had a dignified appearance, exuding a noble aura. The two of them were on completely different channels.
One was the Animal Channel.
The other was the Food Channel.
Chen Xiang's delicate face was full of grievance. She stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, this concubine already told Younger Sister that Your Highness was busy with important matters and couldn't go over. However, Younger Sister wouldn't listen and insisted on coming over. No one could stop her."
What?
"Little Sister, we have plenty of time in the future. There's no need to worry about what happened last night. If you rush over so rashly, everyone in the estate will know about it. You'll be the one in the wrong. You'll lose more than you gain."
"Get lost."
Ji Muqing shoved her harshly.
Chen Xiang staggered a few steps back and lowered her eyes aggrievedly. "What's wrong with Little Sister? I'm just trying to persuade you. Why do you have to get physical with me? "
"Don't think that I don't know how much you're gloating in my heart."
"You and I are sisters from now on. Why do you say that?" Chen Xiang held back her tears as she gracefully walked to Jing Yi's side and sat down. She took the opportunity to grab his arm and said uncomfortably, "Your Highness, this concubine knows that Younger Sister was alone in the bridal chamber last night and must be feeling unwell, so I wanted to go talk to her. Who would have thought that Younger Sister would think that this concubine was deliberately mocking her? She's innocent!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Muqing retorted, "Don't put on an act here."
"I really want to care about you, sister."
"Enough." Jing Yi interrupted the two of them. Annoyance surfaced in his eyes as he looked at Ji Muqing, who was standing in front of him. "Your Highness, this prince had important matters to attend to last night and drank a little too much, so I didn't go to the bridal chamber. Please don't take it to heart, Princess. We still have a lot of time to spend together in the future. Just take it that this prince was negligent last night and didn't consider for Your Highness's sake.
He had a headache.
Ji Muqing's anger subsided a little when she heard that Jing Yi's tone and attitude were quite good.
She pursed her lips and looked tearfully at the 'adulterous couple' in front of her. Her heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.
She forcefully swallowed her anger and said, "This concubine was rash. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
As she spoke, she didn't forget to glare fiercely at Chen Xiang.
However, Chen Xiang was fearless and even responded with a smug smile.
Jing Yi waved his hand. "Your Highness didn't do it on purpose. Just pay more attention to your words and actions in the future."
"Then this concubine will take her leave."
Ji Muqing flicked her sleeves and left in a huff.
Behind her, Chen Xiang's crisp laughter could be heard.
She snuggled up to Jing Yi's side and massaged his shoulders. "Your Highness, if the Ji brothers hear about your cold treatment of her, will there be trouble?"
He sneered. "This is Prince Yi's estate. It's easy to get news in, but difficult to get it out."
"This woman really doesn't have any manners. You're a prince and she's just a consort. She's so arrogant just because she has the support of her two brothers."
"She has someone backing her up, but you don't. So, you'd better not cause any trouble that will annoy this prince. Otherwise, this Prince won't let you off. "Jing Yi pinched her cheeks.
Chen Xiang smiled shyly and hurriedly said, "This concubine has been by Your Highness's side for so many years. Don't you know what kind of person this concubine is? How could I possibly annoy Your Highness? "
"It's precisely because this prince knows what kind of person you are that I want to believe that you went to the consort's place early in the morning just to mock her."
"Is this concubine doing this because I'm worried that Your Highness will forget the kindness of the old after getting the new's smile?" She lowered her willowy eyebrows and sobbed.
Jing Rong held her hand. "What nonsense are you talking about? She's just a chess piece in this prince's hands. If it weren't for the Ji brothers' influence, this prince wouldn't even spare her a glance. "
"What about me?"
Jing Yi looked at her from the corner of his eyes and smirked wickedly. He pinched her chin. "You're not fit to be this prince's chess piece."
Chen Xiang smiled and held the hand that was pinching her chin. "This concubine would like to be your chess piece. Who knows, I might even be able to help Your Highness ascend the throne earlier."
Hah!
Jing Yi forcefully shook her chin off.
"I already said you're not fit."
She wasn't annoyed. Her gaze shifted and she noticed something on the table. She curiously reached out to grab it while asking, "Your Highness, what is this?"
Before her fingertips could touch it, Jing Yi blocked her hand.
That originally evil face turned serious. "This prince told you before that there are some things you can't touch or ask about. Have you forgotten?"
Chen Xiang shuddered and hurriedly said, "This concubine hasn't forgotten."
"Alright, this prince still has matters to attend to. You can leave first."
His face changed faster than flipping the pages of a book!
Chen Xiang was very obedient. She wasn't as thickheaded as Ji Muqing. She knew when to advance and when to retreat. She could also read Jing Yi's mind.
Thus, she propped herself up and bowed.
"Then this concubine will take her leave."
Before she left, Jing Yi suddenly reminded her, "You can play, but don't go overboard."
In other words, she could mess with Ji Muqing, but she couldn't make a big fuss.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. This concubine knows what to do."
