After a house full of cannon fodder read my voice, the whole family went crazy.

"No matter how bad this prince is, he is still a member of the imperial family and is recognized by his ancestors as a Jade Spy."

The Ninth Prince spoke calmly.

Although she is not as tall as Princess Minglai, her shoulders and back are straight and she is calm and measured.

Just a retort made Princess Minglai's momentum overwhelming.

"How presumptuous! In terms of seniority, I am your imperial sister. In terms of status, I am the direct descendant of a noble concubine!"

"I don't know how much more noble you are than a bastard like you, whose biological mother is unknown and who is just fostered under the Queen's lap."

"How dare you ridicule me? Do you think your life is too long?"

After scolding him for a few times, she still couldn't get over her anger, so she raised her hand and was about to slap the Ninth Prince in the face.

But she moved too much, and when she was about to rush in front of the Ninth Prince, she casually pushed Wu Qingyun who was diagonally in front of him.

Qiao Jingyue was not far away. He stepped forward and held Wu Qingyun's elbow in time.

"Are you OK?"

he asked quietly.

Just as Wu Qingyun was about to answer, Qiao Jingchen patted Qiao Jingyue on the shoulder, passed him and directly stopped Princess Minglai.

"Your Royal Highness, please consider your identity and royal dignity before the public."

Mrs. Qiao also came over. Although there was dissatisfaction in her eyes, she still said with a smile: "Your Highness, today is my granddaughter's first birthday party. It is also a good day."

"Don't hurt each other's harmony just because of some misunderstanding."

But Princess Minglai was used to being domineering, so she was stopped by Qiao Jingchen and said those words again.

At this moment, I just feel that my face is dull.

Looking at the surrounding ministers and ladies, they were gathered together in twos and threes, whispering.

It felt like he was mocking her for being put down by the Qiao family and destroying the princess' prestige.

He snorted coldly and raised his chin high.

"When I come to your house, this princess is looking down upon your Qiao family. But who is that bastard? He actually dares to come to your house before me, and is even arranged to sit in the front hall."

"Is this showing contempt for me and slapping me in the face?"

"For what happened recently, either he will kneel down and beg me for mercy, or you, the Qiao family, will give me an explanation. Otherwise, I will treat you as colluding and want to be my enemy!"

Mrs. Qiao's face darkened, and she could no longer hide her displeasure.

After all, she also has royal blood flowing through her body.

Her mother was the late emperor's aunt, and she and the late emperor were cousins.

In terms of seniority, Princess Minglai still calls her cousin.

However, Princess Minglai was deeply loved by the imperial concubine, and the emperor condoned her domineering behavior. The courtiers and dignitaries below also kept a respectful distance from her and did not dare to provoke her.

But that doesn't mean Mrs. Qiao doesn't have the pride of being a member of the royal family.

"Princess Minglai, this is the Qiao Mansion. Even if His Majesty comes in person, he treats my Qiao family with great courtesy."

"Is it possible that you are more noble than His Majesty, so you don't take us seriously?"

Princess Minglai snorted coldly: "Are you using my father to oppress me? Mrs. Qiao, are you also an ignorant person?"

"Which sentence I just said is wrong?"

"Your Highness, this is just a misunderstanding. Let's end it here."

Qiao Zhongtian came over and stood in front of his mother and wife.

He was tripped up by something just now and came a little late.

But what happened was relayed by the servants, and they even saw a scene where Princess Minglai was disrespectful to Mrs. Qiao.

As the prime minister, he just wanted to put things to rest and didn't want to get into the details.

But obviously, Princess Minglai didn't accept this trick at all.

"The prime minister said it was a misunderstanding, it was a misunderstanding. Then the princess said it was not a misunderstanding. Is it possible that I have to give in to you?"

"My father probably doesn't know about the Qiao family's great prestige."

The implication of her words made Qiao's family members change their minds at the same time.

Qiao Wanshu even cursed: [Damn! Is this damn woman trying to stir up trouble in front of the emperor? If he said these words to the emperor with embarrassment, would he still be able to enjoy the good fruits of the Qiao family? 】

This is also the concern of everyone in the Qiao family.

Princess Minglai obviously grasped this weakness, and a look of triumph suddenly appeared on her face.

"The princess of a country acted domineeringly at the first birthday banquet held by her subordinates. I have never heard of such a thing happening under the emperors of my dynasty."

With solemn and solemn words, General Chen finally arrived belatedly.

The armor on his body was fierce, and the sword on his waist was cold and gleaming.

As soon as he appeared, everyone in the audience was shocked.

"Shu'er is my favorite granddaughter, and I will never allow anyone to spoil her birthday party."

"Even if you are a noble princess, I still have to go to His Majesty to ask where this truth comes from!"

Old General Chen walked quickly and stopped in front of the Qiao family.

He turned around and looked at Princess Minglai, the contempt in his eyes undisguised.

"Old General Chen, what's that look in your eyes? Are you despising what I say and do?"

Princess Minglai screamed angrily.

"I am a royal nobleman, with golden branches and jade leaves. I am my father's most beloved princess!"

"You dare to be so disrespectful to me. Could it be that... you want to protect that bitch?"

Her eyes suddenly turned to the Ninth Prince and she smiled coldly.

"Is it possible that you also listened to the rumors and thought that he was the person that my father valued, so you wanted to bet on him?"

General Chen laughed loudly.

"Since Her Royal Highness knows that it is a rumor, will she still believe it and cast doubt on Mansion Qiao?"

"Everyone in the world doesn't know that the Qiao family has never formed a party for personal gain, and has never formed an alliance with anyone."

"Are your words and deeds now to accuse the Qiao family of forming a clique for personal gain?"

"Then you might as well go to the interview with this general now and explain this matter clearly!"

The old general's killing intent was awe-inspiring, and even if he didn't unleash all of his aura, it was not something a princess like Ming Lai, who was raised in a deep palace, could bear.

Although her back was still straight, her whole body was trembling.

Just now, she was just so angry that the Ninth Prince made her lose her mind for a moment.

Now that I calmed down, I was shocked to realize that I had gotten into two troubles at once.

Qiao Xiang and Old General Chen were equivalent to the two-horse carriage in the court.

If she was really forced to go to the Ninth Prince because of her few words, wouldn't she have done that boy a big favor?

After figuring this out, her rationality gradually returned.

He found a way to make up for himself: "Humph, I don't bother to talk to you anymore. Anyway, I am here for the banquet, but I have also remembered everything I have experienced today!"

"You all take care of yourself!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked away in a hurry.

Qiao Wanshu looked at Old General Chen with starry eyes.

This was the first time she had seen a real general show his power, and it was indeed completely different from what was shown on TV.

That majesty, that momentum!

She was mentally slapping Old General Chen's rainbow fart when she heard Qiao Jinghan suddenly exclaim.

"Grandpa, why is there blood on your body, but where are you injured?"
