All Chapters of The Crowned Lady: Chapter 231 - Chapter 240

Mrs. Gu asked everyone to return to their seats and told maidservants to replace the dishes on the table with hot ones. Wei Changying pulled Shen Cangning, saying with a smile, "Your hearing is so good. I thought as it is very noisy at the banquet, there is also music, and you looked so bored, leaning your head on the table, you might not be able to hear what Wei Changjuan was saying!"Shen Cangning pursed her lips, saying, "My third sister-in-law, you didn't see it. Wei Changjuan looked at me for a while first. Seeing that I didn't pay much attention to what you asked, she came to you. I guess she must have thought that as I wasn't keen on responding to your questions, we must have a poor relationship. So, she deliberately came to sow discord between us, hoping that if I listened to it, I would cause trouble for you!"Surprised, Wei Changying said, "Was it like that? I didn't notice that at all." Although Shen Cangning had helped her, Wei Changjuan was her

After finishing Su Yuli's wedding banquet and returned to Grand Preceptor's mansion, Madam Su, who heard about the conflict during the banquet, summoned Wei Changying and Shen Cangning to inquire. After asking, she frowned and said, "Madam Duanmu herself has never been heard of doing anything bad. How could she teach her daughter so badly?"She then said, "Old Madam Song is not in the capital now. I think Madam Duanmu is blindly doting on her young daughter so that she lacks the proper teaching."Although Madam Su affirmed that her daughter-in-law and daughter were not responsible, Wei Changying still felt disgraceful. When Wei Changying was about to speak, Shen Cangning, who had been playing with a colored sash when she replied before, said, "My mother is right. How can Madam Duanmu be stricter than you? Almost everyone will praise me when I go out!"On hearing this, Madam Su immediately goggled and said, "How dare you talk about it? Let me as

Queen Dowager Run and the Queen Run who had heard what had happened came over quickly. They finally persuaded the two princesses to part from each other, thinking that these three sisters from the royal family shouldn't visit Infanta Chengxian together. As Princess Qingxin's knees were injured, the Queen Run advised her to go to the room at the back to apply some medication to them and wait for the imperial doctor to come and take a look at her injuries.Princess Qingxin had never been treated horribly like this! She cried and howled, keeping saying that she would go back to the palace to ask her father and mother to give Princess Anji a death sentence.Princess Anji put her hands on her hips, sneering and saying, "Go and tell them. I have never heard of an older sister being executed because she disciplined her younger sister for insulting her elders. If I had been afraid of death, nobody would have shown any respect to Doujin Palace over the years! I tell

That person was a little shorter than Wei Changjuan. She had bright eyes, white teeth, and beautiful features. And she wore a colorful dress and a simple hairpin ring. She was Princess Anji.Wei Changying was surprised: Princess Anji was a headache for the royal women in the capital, and everyone decided to keep a respectful distance from her. She had only met her three times including this time. Why did Princess Anji help Wei Changying solve the dilemma of Princess Qingxin today and follow her to fight against Wei Changjuan?She mused, bowed to her, and did not ask the reason. She greeted, "I..."Princess Anji obviously did not have the patience to go around in circles. She waved her hand to stop her words, glancing at the person who had been kicked to the ground by her. After seeing who kicked her, Wei Changjuan immediately covered her skirt and was so scared that she did not dare to even get up. Princess Anji said bluntly, "Today, you were e

At this moment Wei Changying was being taken by Princess Anji to an open area by the lake in the garden. Within a few paces, there was a lone weeping willow that had been standing there for many years and the rest of the place was simply empty.A warm breeze was coming from the lake, carrying a hint of lotus fragrance. The water was clear and the lake was vast, cooling the summer heat. There was a gentle sound of cicadas overhead. Probably, some had been removed recently.The two of them sat down on the grass under the willow. Princess Anji took a folding fan out of her sleeve and fanned herself casually, smiling, "This is a nice place. It’s shady and cool. It’s a good place to talk. There is no need to worry about being overheard."Princess Qingxin had gotten Wei Changying into trouble today and Wei Changying had asked Wei Changjuan to come out. Guessing what time it was, Wei Changying thought that by now Infanta Chengxian probably would have
