Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 41 The Palace Banquet Disturbance ([-])

Princess Zhaohui snorted, and said: "She dares, but this Xie Wanqing didn't know what kind of medicine she took wrongly, and she learned to compliment others, it's inexplicable!"

The third princess frowned after hearing this, and asked, "Isn't that right? Did that arrogant Xie Wanqing compliment the fifth sister?"

"Yeah, you're being polite to me, as if you've never had a fight with me before!" Princess Zhaohui was also puzzled.

The third princess said: "It's mostly pretending, thinking that she will marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince soon, I'm afraid the princess will make things difficult for her in the future!"

"If she becomes the Crown Princess, how can I make things difficult for her?" Princess Zhaohui is smart now, even with the backing of Concubine De, she dare not blatantly make things difficult for the Crown Princess.

But Xie Wanqing is not yet the Crown Princess, that's why she dared to quarrel with her.

"That's weird, why don't we try her?" The third princess is the one who likes to provoke, but she doesn't have any good intentions.

Princess Zhaohui asked: "How to try?"

The third princess clung to Zhaohui's ear, murmured a few words, and then Princess Zhaohui nodded repeatedly, saying: "This method is good. If she doesn't have an attack, then she can only consider herself unlucky. If she does, hehe...then Just pretending to be a cabbage once for nothing, and you will be ashamed!"

Princess Zhaohui is also restless, she is happy to have trouble with Xie Wanqing!
The two idle and boring princesses hit it off and were ready to play tricks on Xie Wanqing.

Xie Wanqing was idling there and panicked when she heard Princess Zhaohui yell and began to reprimand her maidservant.

"Tell me what you're going to do. Where's the princess' Dongzhu? How can such a big Dongzhu disappear?"

The people around were all attracted by Princess Zhaohui's voice, knowing that this princess has never been an easy-going, just wanting to see a good show.

The servant girl knelt on the ground and said in awe and fear: "Princess, I really don't know where Dongzhu has gone. She was still there just now, but she disappeared in a blink of an eye!"

"You said you were still there just now, when was it just now?" The third princess pretended to be a good person, and seemed to want to excuse the maidservant.

The maid seemed to be thinking hard, and then said: "The princess was still there before she went to talk to Miss Xie, and I didn't pay attention after I came back!"

After hearing this, Xie Wanqing knew that Princess Zhaohui was holding back something bad. Dongzhu must have been secretly hidden by the princess beside her, but she would never be on her body, because she didn't find anyone approaching her.

Xie Wanqing thought about it carefully, and suddenly saw that the exploited longan on her desk had a perfectly round pearl inside.

What a Princess Zhaohui, she is really clever in her tactics, misleading, but planted just right.

If she took out this Dongzhu now, she wouldn't be able to tell. Everyone would only take it out because she thought she was guilty, and they wouldn't think she didn't steal anything.

If you don't take it out, Princess Zhaohui will definitely expose her when she comes later.

On such an occasion, if she were to be slandered as someone who stole the princess's belongings, it would be extremely ugly. From then on, she would never even think about gaining a foothold in the royal family!

Although she didn't want to marry the prince, she shouldn't be the one who sacrificed her reputation.

Xie Wanqing narrowed her eyes slightly, everyone's eyes had already turned to her because of the servant girl's words, and her small movements now would be discovered by others.

Xie Wanqing didn't care, picked up a longan casually, put it in her mouth, and ate it slowly.

But he had already taken the opportunity to take Dongzhu into his palm.

Sure enough, Princess Zhaohui came over, looked around pretendingly, and then asked: "Xie Wanqing, have you seen the East Pearl in my palace? It's inlaid on my earring, and it's exactly the same as this one!"

Princess Zhaohui took off the pendant from her other ear and showed it to Xie Wanqing.

Xie Wanqing shook her head and said, "I've never seen it before!"

Princess Zhaohui frowned, glanced at Sheng Longyan's plate, but couldn't find Dongzhu, so she frowned even tighter. Could it be that Xie Wanqing discovered it in advance and threw it elsewhere?
Impossible, she just let someone put it in not long ago, Xie Wanqing is not such a careful person!
Princess Zhaohui frowned, and said displeasedly: "Xie Wanqing, if you take it, just return it to me. Although Dongzhu is expensive, as the prime minister's daughter, haven't you seen anything good?"

The third princess stepped forward and persuaded: "Fifth sister, don't embarrass Miss Xie, she may not be the one who took it!"

"I went to look for something else just now. After I left her, I went to talk to you. Could it be that you took it?" Zhaohui asked.

The third princess hurriedly waved her hands and said, "How is that possible? What do I want that thing for?"

"That's right. I've searched for it several times, but I still can't find it. Someone must be hiding it!" Zhaohui deliberately glanced at Xie Wanqing, just to tell people that Xie Wanqing is the thief!
Xie Wanqing didn't care, and continued to eat longan, as if she didn't realize that she was the focus of everyone.

It was the first time Princess Zhaohui saw someone so calm, she almost called her name and said she was a thief, why was Xie Wanqing so calm?
Princess Zhaohui shouted: "Xie Wanqing, did you see it?"

Xie Wanqing glanced at Princess Zhaohui coolly, and said, "If you go back to the princess, my servant didn't see it!"

Then he lowered his head again, picked up a fruit and put it in his mouth, seeming to enjoy it quite a bit.

Now the audience is even more excited, Princess Zhaohui and Xie Wanqing have been feuding for a long time, everyone knows it!

So this time, whether it was Princess Zhaohui deliberately framed, or Xie Wanqing really took something, they were all happy to watch a good show!
"Then let Ben Gong search, and if you find it, what should you say?" Princess Zhaohui actually proposed this method.

Xie Wanqing frowned slightly, and asked: "Princess, although a courtier's daughter is not as noble as a princess, this body search is not something you can do casually!"

"You don't dare to let Ben Gong search, it means you have a guilty conscience, that is, you stole Ben Gong's Dongzhu!" Princess Zhaohui said confidently.

Xie Wanqing smiled, and took off a hairpin flower from her head, with a pearl on it, Xie Wanqing said: "Princess, do you recognize this one?"

No matter how ignorant Princess Zhaohui was, she knew that this was an extremely rare Donghai night pearl. Although the particles were not big, it was hundreds of times better than her own Dongzhu.

Anything on Xie Wanqing's body is a hundred times more expensive than that Dongzhu, so how could she be greedy for an Dongzhu?

Everyone naturally understood what Xie Wanqing meant, and Xie Wanqing would not be greedy for petty gains and steal the princess's things!
But Princess Zhaohui said disapprovingly: "It's not necessarily because you stole my beads because you haven't seen any good ones, I'm afraid it's because you want to make things difficult for Bengong and want Bengong to wear only one earring, making people laugh!"

Xie Wanqing sighed helplessly, and asked: "My daughter was wronged, and my daughter respects the princess in her heart, how dare she make things difficult for her?"

"You... have you ever respected me?" Princess Zhaohui blushed angrily, this Xie Wanqing was too cheeky, everyone knew that they were at odds, yet she dared to say that she respected her!
