After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister’s Treasure

480 The woman he liked was quick-witted

Ruan Songling was stunned, so she stopped going down the stairs and continued to watch.

Then, she saw Liang Yulin’s face reveal a gentleness she had never seen before, and he took the initiative to tease that married woman.

The man she had seen had always been gentle and elegant, but also cold and distant.

However, how could he treat another woman like this? How could he?

Her gaze followed the two of them and noticed that Liang Yulin treated the woman very differently.

The way he looked at her was even more abnormal, as if there was a bit of lingering affection.

She couldn’t accept this.

She only came back to her senses after the two of them disappeared from her sight.

Then, she got someone to investigate.

Only then did she know that the woman was Shi Qingluo’s mother-in-law, Kong Yuelan, a divorced woman with three children.

She also found out that Prince Yi had been hunted down not long ago and that it was Mdm Kong who had saved him.

No wonder Prince Yi treated Mdm Kong so differently.

But Ruan Songling couldn’t accept that Liang Yulin, who had been single for so many years, would fall for another woman.

She had always felt that not only was Liang Yulin the only special existence in her heart, but she should also be his first blush of love.

That was why she was jealous of Mdm Kong.

She had come today on purpose to pick a fight, and at the same time, to see what ability this divorced vixen had to attract Liang Yulin.

Looking at Mdm Kong’s appearance, although she wasn’t bad, she was just like so-so.

She wasn’t some outstanding beauty, so how Liang Yulin took a liking to her?

The more she looked at Mdm Kong, the more she disliked her. With a cold face, she said, “I did not ask you to rise, how can you rise by yourself? You really have no manners.”

As soon as Mother Xiao entered the room, she could feel that Prince Jin’s princess consort didn’t like her very much.

She even had some hostility towards her.

If this happened in the past, she would definitely be nervous, afraid, and helpless to be lectured by a princess consort.

But now, her son and daughter-in-law had given her confidence.

Her daughter-in-law had said that if anyone wanted to slap her in the face, she should slap them back without worrying about the consequences.

Because of this, Mother Xiao said indifferently, “I greeted the princess, but you deliberately didn’t let me rise. Isn’t this rude?”

Ruan Songling didn’t expect Mdm Kong to be so bold and dare to talk back like this.

“How courageous you, a village woman, dared to do this and even rebutted.”

Then, she ordered, “Someone come and slap her mouth and let her know what is respect!”

She thought that Mdm Kong was also an idiot.

As soon as she came, she let her catch her weakness and found an excuse to get someone to slap her to vent her anger.

Mother Xiao raised her eyebrows. “Prince Jin’s princess consort, you’re so powerful. Although you came from somewhere far at the northern border, the news shouldn’t be so outdated, right?

“Although I’m just a village woman, I’m also Nanxi County Lord conferred by the emperor personally, and I’ve also done no wrong. I’m not someone you can casually ask a maidservant to slap me.”

Not long after she had been conferred the title of a country lord, she had been summoned by the empress into the palace to meet her.

The empress was the one who was truly dignified and graceful.

She was very polite to her, unlike Prince Jin’s princess consort who acted as if she had the most powerful status in the world and to regard everyone as beneath one’s notice.

As expected, she was able to raise a daughter like Princess Zhen. The princess consort, as her mother, was really annoying.

Ruan Songling’s face turned green from the rebuttal.

When she investigated Mdm Kong’s background previously, she had indeed known that the emperor had conferred the title of a county lord on her.

However, she didn’t take it to heart.

She only felt that it was easy to deal with such a village woman.

Who would have thought that she would be so bold to talk back to him again and again?

“I’m a princess consort and is of a higher rank than you. If I want to slap you, then I will slap you. If you are not convinced, you have to endure it for me.”

She coldly glanced at the maidservant she had brought. “What are you still standing there for? Go and slap her.”

The servant girl immediately walked forward and raised her hand to slap Mother Xiao’s face.

However, before she could slap her face, she grabbed her arm.

Mother Xiao looked at Ruan Songling coldly. “This is not Northern City where you live, princess consort. It’s not a place where you can be arrogant and domineering.

“If I’m wrong, then it’s the empress who will teach me a lesson. It’s not your turn.”

Prince Jin’s princess consort was really a bully, but she wasn’t afraid of her.

When the empress was mentioned, Ruan Songling’s face turned cold.

She had originally thought that Prince Jin would become the emperor, so she looked down on the empress, who was once the crown princess. She wouldn’t make her look good when they met.

Who would have thought that in the end, the crown prince would ascend the throne, and the woman she looked down on would become the empress.

In addition, Secondary Consort Hua’s face was very similar to the empress’.

It was rumored that the person Prince Jin liked was actually the empress.

He had always been thinking about her, so he found Secondary Consort Hua to be her substitute.

This made her even more unhappy.

Prince Jin clearly only loved her in his heart.

That was why she was especially against the empress and felt even more disgusted.

Towards a substitute like Secondary Consort Hua, she would often find fault with her.

At this moment, she felt even more revolted against Mdm Kong.

She ordered the guards who had followed her, “Mdm Kong has offended her superiors. Bring her away.”

Now that she was going against her, she would see how she would deal with this vixen when she brought her back.

The guards were already used to the princess consort’s temperament, so they went forward to capture Mother Xiao without hesitation.

Mother Xiao wasn’t one who would allow others to bully her.

Her daughter-in-law said that if she met someone of a higher status who went overboard, it was best to use public opinion and other favorable factors to restrain others so that they could not do anything to her.

It was best to let everyone stand on their side and ruin that person’s reputation first.

She suddenly remembered that her daughter-in-law had once brought her to the Wu family to see how Old Lady Xiao had tarnished the Wu family’s reputation.

Hence, before the guards could get close, she ran out of the door without hesitation.

She even reached out and pinched her own arm, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain. Then, she quickly ran out of the county government office.

“Prince Jin’s princess consort is going to kill me!” She shouted as soon as she ran out.

Xiao Hanzheng and Liang Yulin, who had been standing outside and preparing to go in to help, were stunned.

Xiao Hanzheng quickly realized that his mother’s trick must have been taught by his wife.

He stopped in his tracks and turned around to chase after her.

Liang Yulin hadn’t expected Mdm Kong to suddenly retaliate like this.

In this way, not only could it arouse the public’s anger, Prince Jin’s princess consort would no longer be able to catch her and beat her, but it would also ruin the princess consort’s reputation.

Let others know how arrogant and unreasonable Prince Jin’s princess consort was, and stand by her side to put pressure on Prince Jin’s princess consort.

Otherwise, based on her status, it would be difficult for her to fight back against Prince Jin’s princess consort.

The woman he liked was quick-witted.

He also quickly chased after her.

As expected, when Mother Xiao shouted, the people near and in the county government ran over.

“Old Madam, what’s the matter?” The bailiffs couldn’t help but ask.

The commoners also recognized Mother Xiao and knew that she was the county magistrate’s mother.

They also had a good impression of Mother Xiao.

She had brought her daughter to the county town to give out porridge several times and helped the widowed elderly and orphans.

Mother Xiao’s eyes were red as she said weakly, “Prince Jin’s princess consort was angry that her daughter was bitten by our big goose and my daughter-in-law wasn’t here, so she came to me for revenge.”

Then, she wiped her tears. “Not only did she ask the servant girl to slap me, but she also asked the guards to arrest me and kill me.”
