Chapter 470: Chapter 470: How to Spend the Second Half of Life

Ms. Ma looked at her strangely, feeling a little apprehensive. She frowned and said, “Your apology is your business, what does it have to do with me? Or are you here today to gloat over me, to flaunt your new position as the high and mighty Princess Consort?”

“I don’t need to flaunt that.”

“You!” A flash of cold light appeared in Ms. Ma’s eyes, clearly angered.

But the two brothers Jiang Qi and Jiang Yu standing behind her were watching her intently, preventing her from acting recklessly. She spat out, “I’m not interested in what’s going on between you and Concubine Xian, it has nothing to do with me!”

“Of course, it has to do with you. I need to bring her good daughter-in-law with me. After all, Concubine Xian has told me not to interfere with her son’s life. Words alone won’t be enough, if I bring you with me and tell her personally, she’ll believe it. Such an apology is sincere.”

“I don’t want to get involved in your affairs, I won’t go!” Ms. Ma stepped back. “Besides, she was referring to her son, why don’t you take the Prince of Huai with you?”

“Isn’t Prince of Huai your husband? Aren’t husband and wife like birds of a feather, flying their own ways at the first sign of trouble?”

“There’s no need for you to mock me. When Prince Yu was in trouble, you didn’t stand by him. As his legitimate wife, you were less than his concubines. You have the nerve to lecture me.” Ms. Ma sneered.

Jiang Ning chuckled, “That’s true. If Li Hongyuan turned out to be like your husband, the Prince of Huai, I would divorce him in a minute. Spend the rest of my life like a widow with a paralyzed man, how would I live then?”

Those words struck a nerve in Ms. Ma.

“You were once crippled yourself, Prince Yu married you, you lack gratitude, and now you’re talking like this. Aren’t you afraid he’ll hear it?”

“Even if he were here, I’d say the same thing. After all, I’m not as hypocritical as you, or as good at bottling up my feelings. You clearly despise the Prince of Huai, yet you pretend to be virtuous and dutiful, staying by his side to serve him.”

Her revealing these emotions so blatantly, every word hitting where it hurts, how could Ms. Ma not be furious?

She reached out to grab Jiang Ning.

Jiang Qi and Jiang Yu were ready to defend her, but before they could move, a shadow blurred past. Gucheng, quick as lightning, had slapped Ms. Ma across the face, sending her flying, just as she reached out her hand.

Ms. Ma flew sideways into some bushes.

The servants from Prince Huai’s mansion scurried over to help her up.

Ms. Ma was in a sorry state, and there was a touch of fear in her eyes when she looked at Gucheng.

This silent young man in black had been following Jiang Ning without drawing attention to himself.

But this same person was so fast, so powerful.

Was he human or ghost?

After slapping Ms. Ma, Gucheng returned to Jiang Ning’s side, reverting to his usual silent manner.

Jiang Qi and Jiang Yu exchanged glances and snickered.

They’d forgotten that Seventh Miss had Gucheng by her side.

Gucheng was a trusted guard of their father’s, now assigned to Jiang Ning as her personal protector. He could handle almost anything short of an army.

While Ms. Ma was angered, she dared not make another scene.

“Jiang Ning, what are you trying to do?” she asked, suppressing her resentment word by word.

“I told you, I’m taking you to the palace to see Concubine Xian. Meeting your own mother-in-law shouldn’t be such a big deal, should it? She’s not going to eat you.” Jiang Ning laughed.

“Who knows what you’re up to? Are you willing to apologize to Concubine Xian?”

“You do seem to know me quite well..” Jiang Ning turned to Jiang Yu and said, “Eighth Son, didn’t our Changsheng just contract rabies?”
