Chapter 552: Strange
Translator: Lordbluefire
Shen Ruojing hadn’t expected Princess Consort Luo to act so irrationally. Without much time to think, she quickly grabbed Song Chen’s arm and followed behind Princess Consort Luo.
While keeping a moderate distance, Shen Ruojing heard Princess Consort Luo’s butler ask. “Your Highness, what is this?”
Princess Consort Luo smiled. “I was worrying about how to win the King back from that little wench. Now I have a reason, don’t I? I happened to find out about Princess Consort Ji and Yan Zihan’s affair. It’s only reasonable to immediately inform His Majesty the King to protect the palace’s reputation, right?”
The butler immediately agreed. “You’re right, and this way you hit two birds with one stone, bringing down both the Yan family and Princess Consort Ji!” Princess Consort Luo sneered. “I’ve long since disliked Ji Nina. Who does she think she is, acting like a victim every day? A mere commoner like her actually dares to call herself a princess consort alongside me? How shameless! ‘Moreover, once Yan Zihan’s affair is exposed, that old hag, Yan Rushuang, from the Yan family will also be humiliated! Even though her family won’t be punished now, she won’t be able to hold power in the harem after such a scandal. And with Yan Zihan causing such a mess, the Queen Dowager will be furious toward Yan Rushuang. That old hag will have no face to fight for the position of princess again!
“1n a short time, I can not only counterattack the Shen woman but also suppress two princess consorts. That’s three birds with one stone!”
Princess Consort Luo was delighted. “The position of the Queen will definitely be mine!”
Shen Ruojing followed, listening to her words.
Song Chen’s voice came to her ear. “Jingjing, it’s your first day here. But one princess consort is going to fall, and another will be suppressed. This is happening too fast!”
Shen Ruojing also felt that things had developed beyond her expectations.
Before coming, she knew there were three princess consorts in the palace. Her original plan was to see if they were all kind and easy-going, and if they were, she would persuade their families to let them return home.
If they were all difficult to deal with, she would help her mother suppress them and make sure they never rose again.
When she first arrived at the palace and saw the three princesses’ personalities, Shen Ruojing thought Yan Rushuang was outwardly gentle and generous, but deep down, she was calculating. As for Princess Consort Ji, she was a transparent figure, low in status but clear-headed. Princess Consort Luo, however , was arrogant and domineering, and her flamboyant personality would sooner or later cause her to suffer.
However, Shen Ruojing had never expected that this domineering person would actually help her get rid of two princesses.
Shen Ruojing pursed her lips and said, “I thought the Princess Consort Luo would be the first one to be dealt with.’
Thinking this, she followed Princess Consort Luo to the front of Jing Zhen’s palace.
Within the palace, there were many halls, and Jing Zhen naturally resided in the largest and most central one. The villa had a tall outer wall that ordinary people couldn’t enter.
At this moment, Princess Consort Luo went straight to the gate and had someone knock on it.
The door was knocked, and soon someone came to open it.
The servants were alerted and walked toward the main hall. They then heard the crisp call of Princess Consort Luo from outside the door. “Your Majesty, I have important things to tell you! Please come out immediately!”
Someone immediately relayed this message to the main hall where Jing Zhen
It was already half past midnight, and Jing Zhen and Shen Qianhui were already asleep.
Hearing the knocking, he lazily said, “Let her go back. Whatever she has to say can wait until tomorrow. Don’t wake up my wife.”
Nanny Rong went out with a smile. “Princess Consort Luo, if you have something to say, please come back tomorrow. King Jing and Princess Consort Shen are already asleep.”
However, Princess Consort Luo made a fuss. “Isn’t your Princess Consort Shen feeling unwell? How can she sleep with His Majesty? This is absurd! She’s spoiled! I don’t care, go back and tell them that I have important things to say.”
Nanny Rong returned to the main hall and asked Jing Zhen again.
Jing Zhen noticed that Shen Qianhui, who was in his arms, was starting to move, apparently about to be awakened by the noise. Hence, he immediately got up, put on his clothes, and walked out with an angry face. He continued to speak to Nanny Rong outside the door, “Go and send her away.”
Just as Shen Ruojing and Song Chen entered the door, they heard his words. Shen Ruojing then spoke, “Father, just listen to her. She really has something important.’
Jing Zhen was slightly stunned and looked at her.
He impatiently walked toward the gate and said, “Fine, I’ll listen. If it’s not important and she disturbed my wife’ s sleep because of this, she will have to be punished!”
Shen Ruojing also followed Jing Zhen to the door, wanting to watch the show.
After taking a few steps, she noticed Song Chen was following her. She then raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
Song Chen said, “Jing Jing, I have a bad feeling about this.”
Shen Ruojingwas silent. “So do I, but I don’t know what’s wrong.”
The two were talking when they saw Jing Zhen standing at the door with an angry face. He stared at Princess Consort Luo and said, ‘You better have something important to say! Otherwise, if you wake up Princess Consort Shen, you’ll be in trouble!”
As soon as he said this, Princess Consort Luo’s face darkened. ‘Your Majesty, you’re too biased. I really have something important to report!”
Jing Zhen. “Say it!’
Princess Consort Luo took a deep breath, about to speak when her face suddenly changed and her eyes widened in shock.
Jing Zhen frowned. “Speak!’
He took a step forward and pushed Princess Consort Luo slightly, but to his surprise, she fell straight back!
‘Bang!”
Princess Consort Luo fell to the ground.
After that, chaos erupted at the entrance!
The entrance was instantly filled with chaos!
Screams and exclamations were mixed together. Upon hearing the noise, Shen
Ruojing and Song Chen rushed out. Shen Ruojing then looked at Princess Consort Luo, who had fallen to the ground, and immediately checked her pulse, only to find out that..
Princess Consort Luo had died from a severed heart meridian!
Shen Ruojing’s pupils were slightly constricted.
She then heard a young maid beside Princess Consort Luo shouting loudly.. ‘Princess Consort Luo was angered to death! Princess Consort Luo was angered to death by Princess Consort Shen!”
After saying that, Princess Consort Luo turned around and walked out the door.
Only Princess Consort Ji was left in the room, sobbing. She bit her lips and rushed out of the room.
Shen Ruojing was hiding by the window where the light was dim. She saw
Princess Consort Ji kneeling and hugging Princess Consort Luo’s thigh, but Princess Consort Luo got her followers to push Princess Consort Ji away and slap her. ‘ ‘Who do you think you are?!
Princess Consort Luo pointed at her and scolded, “You’re not even fit to be my servant! I was just showing you some favor. Haha, you being alive doesn’t benefit me. It’s better to use you for some gain!”
Princess Consort Luo then left with her guards and maids.
As for Princess Consort Ji, she collapsed on the ground, crying and trembling, seemingly terrified.
