The Evil Emperor's Favorite: The Sickly and Poisonous Concubine Goes Crazy

Jiang Mansion.

The two Jiang sisters were still mocking and blaming Jiang Heling. Jiang Heling's face had turned red and tears were welling up in her eyes.

Suddenly the housekeeper's excited voice was heard.

"Princess Xuyang is here!"

Jiang Heling thought she had heard wrongly. Why would Princess Xuyang come?

But she still stood up and prepared to go out to greet them, but as soon as she stood up, she was blocked behind by Miss Jiang Da and Miss Jiang Er.

"Why is Princess Xuyang coming to the Jiang Mansion?" Madam Jiang hurriedly walked in front, her expression surprised but also a little flustered. The eldest and second young ladies Jiang behind her hurriedly adjusted each other's clothes, fearing that they had been impolite in some way.

The three of them had no idea that today was Jiang Heling's birthday party.

"Meet Princess Xuyang!"

Mu Xi was wearing a scarlet brocade skirt with dark patterns. Her facial features were deep and delicate, and her whole body was luxurious and elegant. She entered the Jiang family with Su Jingning.

"Please stand up, Madam Jiang. There's no need to be so polite." Mu Xixu helped Madam Jiang up with a smile on his face.

"I didn't know the princess was coming. Please forgive me for any impoliteness I may have shown." Mrs. Jiang had a gentle expression and was very good at speaking.

Mu Xi smiled and said, "I am sorry for disturbing you."

"These are my two daughters, the eldest daughter Jiang Xuejin and the second daughter Jiang Xueyao."

The two of them immediately smiled like flowers and saluted towards Mu Xi, with fawning eyes that made people feel uncomfortable.

Mu Xi nodded politely to the two of them and looked behind them.

"I heard that today is Miss Jiang's birthday party, why don't I see her?" She had seen Miss Jiang's third daughter, Jiang Heling, at the palace banquet, and she remembered her because she was very beautiful.

The smiles on Mrs. Jiang and the two young ladies of the Jiang family paused for a moment.

"I greet Princess Xuyang! Thank you for condescending to host my birthday party."

Jiang Heling finally got time to come out from behind the others. Jiang Heling was known as the most beautiful woman in the capital. She wore a simple moon-white brocade dress that outlined her figure perfectly. Her skin was white and flawless, her eyebrows were as black as ink, her beautiful peach blossom eyes were gentle and charming, her nose was exquisite and small, her mouth was cherry-like, and she was gentle and graceful like a lady from a noble family.

Mu Xi's schedule changed suddenly and she didn't prepare any gifts. She took off a bracelet from her hand and handed it to Jiang Heling.

"I came here in a hurry and didn't have time to prepare any gifts. This will be your birthday gift."

Jiang Heling was flattered and did not dare to take her bracelet:

"The princess's arrival is already the biggest surprise for me. I cannot accept this gift."

Mu Xi glanced at the two sisters of the Su family who were looking at Jiang Heling with jealousy. He smiled at Jiang Heling, stuffed the bracelet into her hand, and said jokingly:

"If you don't accept it, I will be embarrassed to attend your birthday party."

"Thank you, Princess. Please come in." Jiang Heling had no choice but to accept the bracelet and turned sideways to invite Mu Xi in.

"Miss Su Er, Luo Shu, please come in." She smiled at the two people beside her.

Jiang Heling was touched when she saw Su Luoshu. She heard that Su Luoting and Su Luowan went to Jiangnan, so she thought that Su Luoshu would not come alone. Unexpectedly, she still came. She didn't have many friends on weekdays, but the sisters of the Su family were the only ones willing to play with her.

She looked at the girl who had been standing beside Princess Xuyang without saying anything. She was the legitimate daughter of the Su family. Although she didn't say anything, her cool and elegant temperament, like a quiet orchid in a dark valley, made it impossible to ignore her.

She had no friendship with Princess Xuyang. The reason why Princess Xuyang suddenly attended her birthday party today must be because of Miss Su Er.

Because of the arrival of Princess Xuyang, many people suddenly came to the Jiang family, including many noble ladies and gentlemen from aristocratic families. Madam Jiang and the two girls from the Jiang family did their best to take care of the guests, hoping to win the favor of some gentleman.

Because there were so many people, Su Jingning and the others found a quiet pavilion to talk. Qi Nanfeng came over as soon as he saw them and stayed beside Mu Xi without moving. Mu Xi didn't bother to pay attention to him and kept talking to Su Jingning.

There were also many people who wanted to approach Su Jingning and the others and talk to Princess Xuyang, but the guards behind the princess were so fierce and scary that no one dared to approach them.

"They are all here to attend your birthday party, don't you go and entertain them?" Su Luoshu asked Jiang Heling, who had been sitting next to them with a lack of interest.

Su Jingning and Mu Xi also looked at her.

Jiang Heling glanced at the bustling scene behind him and shook his head.

"I didn't want to host this birthday party in the first place. It's just that my elder and second sisters felt bored these days, so they just wanted to have some fun in my name. They're having a great time now, and I don't want to get involved."

Su Luoshu felt a little distressed when he saw her. Jiang Heling's mother died early, and now Mrs. Jiang is the successor. She doesn't treat her well, and her father doesn't dote on her. She is also soft-hearted and is always bullied by her two sisters at home, but she is obviously the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family.

She held Jiang Heling's hand and squeezed it, then looked at her with a comforting expression.

Jiang Heling smiled at Su Luoshu: "It's okay, if it weren't for them, I wouldn't have seen you."

Su Jingning looked at Jiang Heling, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes.

Such a good girl had such a tragic ending in her previous life. In her previous life, Jiang Heling finally married Prince Chen, but in order to get help from Nanyue, Prince Chen gave Jiang Heling, who had just given birth to a child, to the lustful King of Nanyue.

Unable to bear the humiliation, Jiang Heling committed suicide on the way to Nanyue. Later, her brother Jiang Hechuan joined the camp of Prince Ling in order to avenge her. With the help of Prince Ling, he personally killed Prince Chen and cut him into pieces.

"Miss Jiang San!"

"I was wondering why I didn't see you. Turns out you were hiding here and having fun!" Shen Zhiyi walked towards them with his head held high.

"Zhijian has visited Princess Xuyang!" Seeing Mu Xi was there too, he bowed to her.

Mu Xi was talking to Su Jingning when he was interrupted by Shen Zhiyi. The smile on his face faded a little.

"Get up." Mu Xi looked indifferent.

Shen Zhiyi looked at Su Jingning. As expected, she had hooked up with Princess Xuyang. Princess Xuyang must have been deceived by her. She didn't know that Su Jingning was a sinister, cruel and scheming person.

"The princess is precious and elegant, how can you be worthy of being with her?" Shen Zhiyi looked at Su Jingning with contempt.

Su Jingning had expected her to pick a fight, so he ignored her with a cold look. But Mu Xi heard her speak so impolitely and shouted:

"Shen Zhiyi, what do you mean?"

Shen Zhiyi smiled at Mu Xi, and saw the hatred in Su Jingning's eyes:

"Princess, you know that I injured my hand a few days ago, and I will never be able to play the zither again in this life! It was all Su Jingning's fault. This woman has a vicious mind. Princess, you'd better stay away from her and don't be deceived by her."

Mu Xi is very good at judging people. Su Jingning is the person she fell in love with at first sight. She looks delicate and weak, so naturally she would not believe Shen Zhiyi's lies.

"It's not your turn to tell me who I'm friends with."

"Miss Shen's words just now seem a little wrong. I heard that it was Miss Shen who spoke rudely first and stole someone's love at Yunmiao Pavilion. Then she whipped Miss Su Er. Your hand was injured. Did you fall because you didn't stand firmly when the whip was swung, or did Miss Su Er treat your hand injury out of kindness? I heard that if it wasn't for Miss Su Er, you wouldn't have been able to save your hand."

Jiang Heling's gentle voice came out from the side, speaking for Su Jingning. Her voice was gentle but very firm in defending Su Jingning.

Today is her birthday party, and the arrival of Second Miss Su has saved her from trouble. She cannot let Second Miss Su suffer any grievances in the Jiang family.

Jiang Heling is the most beautiful woman in the capital. She is prettier than Shen Zhiyi, but her personality is not as likable as her two sisters. She heard that Jiang Heling was going to hold a birthday party, so she deliberately arranged her poetry tea party to coincide with her birthday party, in order to make her look embarrassed.

Now that Jiang Heling spoke for Su Jingning, he felt even more disgusted with Jiang Heling.

"Oh, so you can speak for others. I thought you would just hide in the corner and dare not say a word! What benefits did Su Jingning give you that make you defend her like this?" Shen Zhiyi's words were sarcastic and harsh.

Su Jingning frowned upon hearing this. It seemed that breaking one of her hands had not taught her a lesson.
