The Devious First-Daughter

Chapter 328 Scheming, a Show by the County Princess Yuanyun

Even if she stood there and did not leave, the two people were already headed straight for her.

Walking in front of her was the slender and graceful County Princess Yuanyun, who had been sitting beside Commandery Princess Mingya. Although she seldom spoke, she gazed at Ning Xueyan frequently. Although she had a curious look when she stared at Ning Xueyan, her slightly raised lips and mocking expression showed her disgust and disdain toward Ning Xueyan.

The reason why County Princess Yuanyun disliked Ning Xueyan so much was because Ning Xueyan was Prince Yi’s favorite concubine. The news had secretly spread from the palace that she would be one of the two co-consorts of Prince Yi. Speaking of Prince Yi, County Princess Yuanyun used to be “scared.”

That was what most people thought. Hearing that she was going to marry the bloodthirsty demon king, she paled on the spot. The Great Elder Princess, who came to deliver the news, told her not to be afraid. Men like Prince Yi would be so fierce to outsiders, but treated his women kindly.

It was said that now he had a concubine whom he doted on solely. He even killed the beauty sent from the palace for her. If such a woman could win his heart, there was nothing she could not do.

Then she talked about Ao Chenyi’s appearance. Compared with the Princely Heir of Commandery Prince Min, Ao Chenyi was no less good looking. In terms of facial features, they were about the same. Wen Xueran was a startling gender-neutral beauty, while Ao Chenyi was a masculine beauty.

The reason why few people liked him was that his presence was so incredible. His momentum suppressed people even before they could even see his face. How would they dare to raise their eyes to judge whether he was handsome or not?

After hearing the Great Elder Princess’s words, County Princess Yuanyun spent a whole night thinking carefully. She immediately changed from sorrow to joy. Although she was a co-consort, she felt she was as pretty as Commandery Princess Xianyun. With her talent and delicacy, she might be the only one who would be favored. Thus, she prepared her dowry happily.

It was said that not only Prince Yi, but his favorite concubine would also be attending the banquet. The County Princess Yuanyun immediately agreed after receiving the invitation card. This mysterious favorite concubine had nothing to do with her, before but now it mattered to her. Especially when she saw this enchanting favorite concubine daring to speak without showing any respect, she immediately came to pick on her.

She was a plaything and dared to be so presumptuous. So, she must let her know who the master at Prince Yi’s Manor was.

At this time, when she turned around and saw Ning Xueyan standing at the side, her face suddenly turned cold.

“How dare you eavesdrop on my conversation with the County Princess?” The maid behind her saw her face and immediately stepped forward. She raised her hand and swiped at Ning Xueyan’s face, cursing fiercely.

She wanted to deal her a head-on blow at their first encounter.

Ning Xueyan took two steps back to avoid the maid’s hand and said coldly, “County Princess, does this road belong to your family? If you take it, why can’t I?”

“How dare you talk to the County Princess like this? Kneel!” The maid did not manage to slap Ning Xueyan. Seeing that Ning Xueyan dared to talk back and her master’s face turning pale, she immediately came over and tried to force Ning Xueyan to kneel.

“A maid dares to speak on behalf of her master. I don’t know whether you treat your master as your master or not.” Ning Xueyan sneered and stepped back a few steps, with a smile on her face.

Since she was here to cause trouble, Ning Xueyan was not afraid of trouble.

The maid was about to drag Ning Xueyan to force her to kneel. After listening to what she said, she dared not make a decision on her own. She turned around and said timidly, “County Princess.”

She knew her own family business. The County Princess looked delicate and was a well-known, talented woman. But if someone offended her, she would definitely deal with him or her severely. Therefore, she dared not make her own decision this time.

“Are you the plaything from Prince Yi’s Manor?” The County Princess sized Ning Xueyan up arrogantly, and sneered.

She deliberately said “a plaything” to make Ning Xueyan aware of her status.
