Ms. Ma looked at Jiang Ning with suspicion.
Jiang Ning laughed and said, âPrincess Consort, youâve been living with the Crown Prince for so many years. You should know better than anyone what kind of person he is. Do I really need to remind you whether or not heâd do such a thing?â
Ms. Ma hesitated.
Of course, she knew what kind of person Li Jixian was.
He wasnât lustful, but he was alarmingly stubborn. Once he set his eyes on something or someone he wanted, he would stop at nothing to obtain it.
Jiang Ning continued, âPrincess Consort, how do you think your appearance compares to mine?â
Ms. Maâs face darkened.
Did they even need to compare?
Anyone with eyes could see it.
Jiang Ning inherited her mother Lin Ziziâs beauty, who was the number one beauty in Changâan City, and was only fifteen or sixteen years old.
And her?
She was moderately attractive when she was young. After years of managing household affairs and giving birth to and raising children, she had aged considerably.
What could she compare to Jiang Ning with?
Jiang Ning leisurely said, âNot only that, but Iâm also good at having children. I gave birth to boy and girl twins. If I were with the Crown Prince, I would definitely have a boy. As for your son⦠it could be uncertain, you know.â
Ms. Maâs expression changed completely.
âSo, are you sure you want to push such a great beauty as myself towards your husband?â Jiang Ning asked soulfully, âWith me around, he wouldnât even spare you a glance in the future. Even your sons and daughters would lose their value like worthless grass.â
Clap, clap, clap.
Li Jixian clapped his hands and laughed, âImpressive, truly impressive. Princess Consort of Yu, instigating discord so openly like this is really something to admire.â
Jiang Ning laughed, âDoes it matter what kind of method is used, as long as it works?â
âThatâs true.â
âMy lord, perhaps we should forget it.â Ms. Ma suddenly spoke up, âAfter all, she is Prime Minister Jiangâs daughter and the Princess Consort of Yu. If anything goes wrong, it could be a big deal.â
Li Jixian shook his head, âCanât you tell sheâs trying to sow discord?â
âI know. Butâ¦â Ms. Ma hesitated, âSomeone like her, your highness really shouldnât touch her. It could lead to trouble.â
It was clear that Jiang Ning had hit her sore spot.
She didnât care about the Crown Prince having more women; she cared about the stability of her own position and the future of her son.
Even if Jiang Ning might threaten all of this, she could never tolerate it.
Li Jixianâs face turned cold, âI knew you were stupid, but I didnât think you were this stupid. Get out! No one is allowed to enter and disturb me without my order!â
Ms. Ma didnât move.
âDidnât you understand what I said?â Li Jixianâs anger was barely concealed.
âYour Highness, please let Princess Consort of Yu go.â Ms. Ma persisted.
âYou lowly wretch, how dare you defy me!â Li Jixian slapped her forcefully.
Ms. Maâs head was jerked to the side.
She covered her face, her body trembling slightly, and gritted her teeth, âIf you donât let her go immediately, I wonât care even if it causes a ruckus. If youâre not afraid of the Emperor finding out, then go ahead!â
âYou dare to threaten me?â Li Jixian slapped her again, âYou shameless whore, do you really think I wonât deal with you?â
Ms. Ma turned her head and shouted, âSomeone!â
Li Jixianâs face changed instantly, not expecting her to really make a scene. In his desperation, he struck her neck, knocking her unconscious.
Ms. Ma collapsed to the ground.
Li Jixian closed the door and turned to Jiang Ning, âI have to say, Iâve underestimated you.â
