Chapter 363 Insult
"How are things going?" Guo Guoban leaned against the railing, looking at the girls who were gathered in groups of three or four by the lotus pond and whispering, his eyes moving.

"Just as the princess expected, Miss Yu...is indeed not someone who is easy to get along with."

"I knew she wouldn't obey. What about now?"

"There's already a commotion in the front chamber. With the eight maids arranged in advance, it will be safe." The maid replied with her head down, "But isn't this a bit..."

"After all, there are quite a few young masters gathered in the front yard now, many of whom are here for the poetry gathering."

Guo Guoyan smiled and said, "What's the matter? I'm not trying to harm her. That face-changing water is not poison, nor is it something that can harm people. I'm just asking her to wash her face and remove her makeup. What's there to resist?"

"Look at these girls present. Which one of them didn't come to see me with a clean face? I just like to talk to the plain girls. What's wrong with that? I'm not forcing them to die. I'm not doing anything out of line. Why do you have to do this?"

The princess couldn't help but chuckle when she said this, "Look at the girl from Wang Hanlin's family. If she hadn't put on makeup before, I wouldn't have known that she has such an obvious scar on her left cheek. It really makes me laugh to death."

"The things in Yuyanfang are really useful. They can even cover up such ugly scars. I will buy some to try later."

The head maid Chun'e hung her right arm and smiled, flattering, "Oh, who can be as beautiful as our princess? Why does the princess need those concealers? Those fake faces of theirs all have to be made up before they can go out to meet people. Without all the makeup and rouge, who can still meet people?"

Guo Guo felt so comfortable being photographed that he couldn't help but chuckle, "You said, Yu Linlang looks so ordinary, even with makeup on, she looks like an ordinary person, totally unattractive. What would she look like without makeup?"

Chun'e laughed along, "What else can it be? It will definitely be uglier and more unbearable to be seen in public."

Guo Guo covered his mouth and laughed, "Well, what you said really hits my point. Her complexion after putting on makeup is plain, and after taking off her makeup, she must be gray and unrefined, not worthy of being in a formal room."

"That's right." Chun'e kept praising her master and belittling others. "She is originally a girl from a rural farm. No matter how beautifully she dresses, she still looks rustic. Now that her true appearance is exposed, she will definitely be even more unsightly."

Guo Guo smiled and said, "This makeup remover is the only good product of Zhuyantai. Just a few drops can reveal a person's true appearance. The rest of the makeup is still far inferior to Yuyanfang."

"That's right." Chun'e followed her master's lead and praised her. "The makeup creams from Yuyanfang are said to be made of pure natural plant extracts. You can just wash them off with water. Unlike the makeup powders and rouge from other shops, the shopkeeper of Yuyanfang said that many of the other shops' rouges contain something... lead. In short, you have to use makeup remover to wash them off after applying makeup, otherwise they won't come off clean."

"Speaking of Yuyanfang, when can I get the bottle of snow pear cream that I ordered last time?"

Qiulan, the maid who had spoken first, noticed that the topic had shifted to another place, so she lowered her head and calmly reminded, "Princess, if today's incident gets out, it won't sound good if it gets out."

"What do you know?" Chun'e rolled her eyes at her. "The princess was just in a good mood, playing a harmless little joke on these people. Ha, there was no beating or scolding, what could be a big deal? Can't you even play a joke?"

"Princess, His Royal Highness the Third Prince and His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, Prince Pingkang, the Marquis Xuanping's son, the Duke of Lu's son, Prince Lu Shuo and the others are all here..." Qiulan lowered her head silently and reminded again.

Princess Guo coughed lightly and raised her hand to smooth her hair. "Oh, quite a few people came to this small poetry gathering."

"The queen has been in a bad mood recently. If the princess makes a big fuss about this, I'm afraid it will end badly."

Chun'e rolled her eyes at her and said, "You are the only one who is nosy."

"Yeah, it would be bad to scare people to death." Guo Guo stood up with a smile, "Let's go and see what's going on. We can't just kill him like this. We have to leave it for later." She turned around and saw Chu Lanyi, Yiruo and others hurriedly coming around from under the corridor, apparently heading towards the front pavilion.

"Where is Lan Yi?" Princess Guo hurriedly chased after her and called out.

Chu Lanyi walked away quickly without paying any attention to her.

Upon seeing this, Yiruo quickly turned around and bowed gracefully to the princess, then followed Chu Lanyi and left with big strides.

"Hey, Yiruo." Guoguo was anxious. She lifted her skirt and chased after her for a few steps. She turned around and scolded Chun'e, "What's going on? Who is so blind that made my Lanyi unhappy again?"

Chun'e replied tremblingly, "No, Princess, he was fine just now. When I ordered people to serve the wine, Master Lanyi was still smiling."

She thought for a moment and whispered, "However, the young masters from Fengyue Tower have all been invited. Could it be that they are not getting along with the cold-faced young master from Jinghong Pavilion, so..."

Princess Guo stamped her feet and said, "Oh, go and take a look."

As soon as Guo Guo left, the atmosphere by the pool became a little better. Many girls gathered in groups of three or four, and kept glancing at Wang Manqing, the daughter of Wang Hanlin.

Wang Manqing's personal maid was so angry that her eyes turned red and she cried silently, "Girl, this princess is too bullying."

Who would just come up and ask someone to wash their face and wipe their hands, and call it beauty water, but it turned out to be makeup water, which washed away the concealer on the lady's face and exposed her scars.

Can a princess bully others like this?
What kind of princess is she? The common women in the countryside are more knowledgeable and knowledgeable about the ways of the world than her.

Wang Manqing was not angry. She smiled and politely declined the veil that Liu Yiru handed over. "Thank you, Miss Liu. I don't need it."

Her eyes were calm and her mood was very stable. "I have a scar on my face. Everyone in the circle of noble ladies in Beijing knows about it. I am still worried about getting married at such an old age. Everyone also knows that this is not a secret that cannot be told."

"Princess, if she wants to watch, let her watch. If she wants to laugh, she can laugh. I won't lose any meat."

She narrated the story so calmly and confidently that the other girls felt the same way and sympathized with her silently.

When they came in, like Miss Wang, they were rudely asked by the princess's servants to wash their faces and hands.

They are all pretty girls like flowers. Even without lipstick and makeup, most of them look plain and simple, not as miserable as Miss Wang, who has scars exposed after taking off her makeup.

If Miss Wang cried, others would inevitably look down on her. The more aloof and proud she was, the more resentful many girls became.

Could the princess be so uncivilized as to insult the daughter of a court official?

Simply ridiculous!
A princess of the royal family actually did such a disrespectful and immoral thing. If it weren't for her status as a princess, everyone would have left long ago and would not have stayed at the lotus viewing banquet to suffer humiliation.

Liu Yiru smiled slightly, "The princess is in a hurry. I'm afraid she's going to the front yard to make things difficult for others again. Let's go over and take a look. If we can, we'll help."
