Chapter 441 Bi Yue's Revelation
"Oh, tell me in detail." Xiao Siyue's eyes lit up. This meant the Fourth Princess was going to get a beating. That was great.
Compared to Xiao Siyue's happiness and the curiosity of others, the Fourth Princess was really anxious.
"Biyue, shut up! How dare you falsely accuse me, the princess? Are you tired of living?"
"Heh, didn't the princess already kill me once? I'm just a worthless life, I don't care about it anymore." Biyue sneered.
"Biyue, who do you think would believe what you say? I have no grudge against Princess Zhaoning, why would I let you hurt her? Don't try to smear me."
"Why? Because you are jealous of Princess Zhaoning, so you want to ruin her reputation and make her suffer a terrible death."
"What a joke! I am a princess with an unparalleled status. Why would I be jealous of a mere county princess?" The Fourth Princess wished she could rip out Biyue's tongue to shut her up.
"Of course you're jealous, because you're in love with General Lu and want to marry him, but General Lu only has Princess Zhaoning in his heart, so you want to ruin Princess Zhaoning."
Upon hearing this, everyone stared in shock at the Fourth Princess and Xiao Siyue. So that's how it is; no wonder.
The second princess also understood. She said that the two had never met before, so why would Xuan Yuanqing have such great hostility towards Princess Zhaoning and even want her dead? When did she fall in love with General Lu?
"So the Fourth Princess is in love with General Lu?"
"Ah, General Lu actually has feelings for Princess Zhaoning? When did this happen? How come I didn't know?" One of the young ladies felt her heart break. That was General Lu! What woman wouldn't want to marry him?
He actually found someone he liked.
"Oh, you didn't know that? I've heard about it for a long time."
"you know?"
"Yes, I heard from my cousin that the Lu family is already preparing to propose marriage."
"what?"
"It's true. I even met General Lu and Princess Zhaoning once when I went out. General Lu was very good to Princess Zhaoning."
"Does the Fourth Princess truly love General Lu?"
"It could be true. Think about it, who is General Lu?"
“That’s true. If that’s the case, it’s quite possible that it was because of General Lu that the Fourth Princess harmed Princess Zhaoning.”
"This is terrible. It's a good thing General Lu doesn't have feelings for me, otherwise I would be the one who has so much to say today."
"You really have a vivid imagination. You think General Lu would take a fancy to you?"
"Sigh, the Fourth Princess is too ruthless."
The crowd was abuzz with discussion, their gazes toward the Fourth Princess filled with disdain.
The Fourth Princess felt extremely embarrassed being stared at by so many people; why did they have the right to look at her like that?
"Biyue, you're talking nonsense! I'll tear your mouth apart!" In her haste, the Fourth Princess lunged at Biyue, but was stopped by Shi Qing.
"Get away from me, you bitch!" The Fourth Princess tore at Shi Qing.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the second princess rushed forward and grabbed the fourth princess's arm tightly, fearing that the other princess would do something rash if she let go.
Immediately afterward, she leaned down slightly and brought her lips close to her ear: "Qing'er, calm down quickly! Don't forget your status! Do you really want to throw a tantrum in front of so many people? If word gets out, won't everyone laugh at our royal family!"
The Fourth Princess was already angry, but upon hearing this, she subconsciously looked in the direction where Xiao Siyue was.
With just one glance, he noticed the faint smile in Xiao Siyue's eyes.
In an instant, an unnamed fire rose from the bottom of my heart—what a despicable person, how dare she openly mock me like this!
Yes, I am a princess! How can I lose my dignity and face because of a moment of anger? Thinking of this, the fourth princess took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, and tried to calm herself down.
“Biyue, considering that you once served me, I am magnanimous and will let it go for now. But I must make this clear: I have never had the slightest affection for General Lu! From ancient times to the present, marriage has always followed the traditional rules of parental consent and matchmaker’s words.”
As the Fourth Princess spoke, her eyes darted around, and she raised her chin to glance at Xiao Siyue before continuing, "For a princess like myself, of noble birth, my marriage naturally requires the Emperor and Empress to personally oversee and manage it. How could I possibly engage in such clandestine exchanges as some shameless individuals? That would be utterly ridiculous!"
Oh, is this a call to action? Xiao Siyue found it somewhat amusing.
"Hehe, Fourth Princess, you've probably forgotten what happened before. You knew perfectly well that General Lu and Princess Zhaoning were in love and about to get married, but you still wanted the Empress Dowager to grant you the marriage. The Empress Dowager refused, and you even angered her. Haha, Fourth Princess, do you regret it? From now on, no one will support you anymore, and you can no longer be arrogant."
"Oh, right, you later had Consort De plead with His Majesty, but His Majesty refused. You still didn't give up and secretly left the palace to go to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion to threaten General Lu, but you returned empty-handed. So you hated Princess Zhaoning. Knowing that the Second Princess was holding a banquet this time, you came here specifically to pick a fight with Princess Zhaoning."
Seeing the Fourth Princess's ugly face and cold expression, Biyue continued, "In the pavilion, you threatened Princess Zhaoning, trying to make her give up General Lu. When Princess Zhaoning refused, you came up with this despicable method to ruin her."
"But in the end, heaven has eyes. Princess Zhaoning didn't fall for your trick at all, and all your plans failed at the last minute. Hahaha... It's understandable that General Lu doesn't think much of you. Someone as ruthless and arrogant as you is not worthy of someone as high up as General Lu."
Upon hearing this, everyone finally understood. However, what Biyue said was quite right. Someone like the Fourth Princess was indeed not worthy of General Lu. It was the Empress Dowager and His Majesty who had good judgment; otherwise, it would have been like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung.
"You lowly servant girl, how dare you slander me as my maid!" The Fourth Princess felt unsteady on her feet; everything she had done had been exposed by that wretched girl, Biyue.
"Haha, whether it's true or false, everyone here will judge for themselves. Why is the princess in such a hurry? I haven't finished speaking yet." Biyue smiled smugly.
"Shut up, Biyun! What are you standing there for? Tell this lowly servant to shut up!" The Fourth Princess flung away the Second Princess who was holding her.
“Princess, this servant…” Biyun was startled by Biyue’s words. As the princess’s personal maid, she naturally knew about these things, but she never expected that Biyue would tell her everything in detail.
