Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 464: Don’t worry, I’m not jealous

Concubine Xian’s people were beaten to a horrifying state.

“Ouch, ouch, what happened here…” Ding Wujin sighed, “Somebody come here, get these messy people out. What have they done to the East Palace, clean it up immediately.”

Concubine Xian’s people were swept out like trash.

As for Concubine Xian, she was still unconscious on the ground.

Her cheeks were swollen, and blood was still dripping from her nose.

Had it not been for Li Hongyuan’s intervention, Jiang Ning would have severed her nose herself.

Li Hongyuan had always known that Jiang Ning, despite her mild appearance, was rebellious and cruel at heart, not the gentle bunny she appeared to be.

But he discovered that he had vastly underestimated this woman’s audacity.

Right in the East Palace, she publicly pinned down Concubine Xian and tried to cut off her nose.

It wasn’t just a threat, she really meant to cut it off.

“Wujin,” he first ordered the eunuch, “Send someone to send Concubine Xian back to Prosperity Palace and call for the Imperial Physician for treatment.” Jiang Ning listened in silence.

Li Hongyuan pulled her back into the room. Seeing the anger dissipated from her eyes, he said, “I know you acted out because Concubine Xian was overbearing, stirring up trouble here first.”

Jiang Ning glanced at him, “Then why did you stop me?”

“Even if you started the fight???? but why did you have to cut off her nose?

Regardless, she is Emperor Father’s woman. If Emperor Father explodes with anger, we won’t have the strength to resist.” Li Hongyuan calmly analysed for her.

“You cut off Ms. Ma’s ears, why can’t I cut off Concubine Xian’s nose? If we don’t teach these despicable people a lesson, they’ll never learn their lesson.” “Now you’re talking back?” Li Hongyuan remarked irritably, “Can these two be comparable? Emperor Father is not callous. Even if he doesn’t love these old concubines, he still has feelings for them. Concubine Xian is not of low status, how would Emperor Father save face if you humiliate her like this? Especially since Concubine Xian has the backing of her natal family.”

“It’s just a fight between women, no need to make it a big deal…”

“Which woman usually cuts off someone’s nose in a fight?”

“She still has her nose, doesn’t she? I assure you, Concubine Xian only has a slight skin injury.” Jiang Ning laughed, “Why did you come back so soon?”

“Don’t change the subject.” Li Hongyuan stared at her, “Why were you so angry today?”

“Oh, I forgot to tell Your Highness, Concubine Xian made your precious daughter cry. When she tried to kick Wenzan, Li Yuanyuan protected him and got hurt instead.”

Li Hongyuan was silent for a moment and then said, “Next time you want to do something, be more discreet. At least they cannot get any evidence or excuse. Otherwise, it’s like self-defeating, pointless.”

“Although your words make sense, that is your way of doing things. I prefer a public face-slapping. It’s more satisfying that way.”

Li Hongyuan stood up, “I’ll go check on Lingzi and Wenzan.”

“Go ahead, Li Yuanyuan is also here, go together.”

Li Hongyuan’s steps faltered.

Jiang Ning rested her chin on her hand and chuckled, “Don’t worry, I won’t get jealous.”

Li Hongyuan calmly said, “I guess soon Emperor Father will summon you, I’ll accompany you. You’ve offended Concubine Xian badly today, be careful she may act desperately.”

“Rest assured.”

“You,” Li Hongyuan paused, “don’t think that because you have the support of your maternal family, and the protection of Gucheng, you can act recklessly. Unless you have no one you care about, otherwise you need to be more cautious.”

Jiang Ning laughed, “I don’t think I’ve caused trouble for anyone.”
