Chapter 11 The Crown Prince's Concubine's Counterattack 11

He received 50 taels of gold, equivalent to taels of silver, and His Majesty sent a young eunuch holding the imperial edict and carrying a large box to deliver it to Prince Jing's Mansion in a grand manner.

Everyone in Prince Jing's Mansion knelt in front of the mansion, expressing their gratitude for the emperor's grace. They learned that Liu Tinghe was conferred the title of First-Rank Lady of Xingguo by His Majesty, and her father was conferred the title of Marquis of Xingguo, and that he had also rewarded her with 50,000 taels of gold. Boxes of treasures flowed into Tinghe Pavilion like water, and it was not only the common people who were envious.

There was also the princess in the mansion and the cousin Liu Piaopiao who was pregnant. Seeing that Liu Tinghe was so glorious and still had a title in front of His Majesty, and the title of First-Rank Lady was even higher than that of the princess of a different surname who had no real power, the princess was so angry that she bit her teeth and Liu Piaopiao also crushed the entire handkerchief.

The flowing rewards entered Liu Tinghe's bedroom. After giving some silver to Xuanzhi's father-in-law, he politely sent the palace servants away, and Tinghe quickly returned to Tinghe Pavilion.

She found the gold particularly dazzling. With the money, she could buy many treasures in the system mall.

But just as he was about to rush into the system, he paused. If he did good deeds and presented treasures to His Majesty, he would receive so many rewards and titles. Otherwise, how about doing more good deeds and getting more money from His Majesty the Emperor?

As I thought about this, the knocking on the door continued.

Ting He held his forehead with his hand as if in pain, but still opened the door, walked out, quickly closed the door, and stood at the door of the bedroom to receive the guests.

The princess acted like a mother-in-law and came in with her niece Liu Piaopiao. Just as they were about to push the door open, Ting He immediately stopped them.

Ting He spoke directly:

"Your daughter-in-law pays respects to your mother. Is there anything important that you are here for? Your Majesty's imperial decree, your daughter-in-law has not yet been able to pay respects in time, so as not to blaspheme Your Majesty. Your daughter-in-law is preparing to kneel down and pay respects after bathing and changing clothes. I wonder what your mother wants to see you about? Is it important to pay respects to your majesty's imperial decree?"

These words left the princess speechless, so she had to use her mother-in-law's name to suppress him:

"No matter how important the imperial edict is, His Majesty is not here, and he can't see it. I am your mother-in-law and the mistress of Prince Jing's Mansion. How dare you argue with me? I want to see if you have become arrogant after being rewarded by His Majesty. You, a hen that doesn't lay eggs, dare to talk back. I think you have lost your sense of justice and don't know the laws of our Prince Jing's Mansion."

After saying that, she was about to call on the servants behind her to control Tinghe forcefully. Tinghe was not a soft persimmon either. When the servant pounced on her, she raised her foot slightly and kicked him. The servant fell against the wall with blood spitting out of his mouth, and fell to the ground with a thud, leaving a big hole.

Liu Piaopiao, who was pregnant for several months, staggered back a few steps in fear and was supported by the maid in time. The princess was furious. Although a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, she thought she had already controlled Liu Tinghe and the previous few times were just accidents. So after she envied the rewards, she couldn't wait to rush in, intending to get the gold, cloth and jewelry.

The princess fearlessly called upon the servants to come forward again. After seeing her young lady's skills, Haitang, who had a keen eye, sneaked out without worry to get help. She went straight to the prince's study.

Ting He had his first chance to fight in real combat, and he quickly defeated a bunch of servants. The princess and Liu Piaopiao were horrified and became even more angry.

The princess was determined that Ting He would not dare to attack her, so she pulled Liu Piaopiao and opened the door. Looking at the boxes of gold and imperial jewelry that had not yet been stored, she became jealous and crossed-eyed. No one cared about anyone else and she started to touch the gold and jewelry and pull them into her arms.

Ting He looked at the figure approaching from afar outside, curled her lips into a smile, but did not stop it, but continued to pull with the servant.

Soon the prince arrived and saw a group of people lying in the yard. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that in the open bedroom, his princess and her pregnant cousin were rudely trying to put the things given by the emperor into their arms.

He was exhausted, rushed forward with bloodshot eyes, and roared:

"Stop, what are you doing? How dare you steal the gift from the emperor? Don't you think you can't die quickly enough?"

When the princess heard the prince's voice, she shuddered with fright, and the gold ingots and jewelry in her arms fell to the ground. She raised her head with her pupils shrinking slightly, threw the things to the ground, stood up quickly, ran over and nodded to the prince, saying:

"Why is the prince here? I just came to see my daughter-in-law and did not do anything inappropriate to her."

Liu Piaopiao curled her lips and reluctantly threw the jewelry in her hand to the ground. She stood beside the princess, bowed her head to the prince, and stopped talking.

The prince turned to Tinghe and said:

"Daughter-in-law, are you okay? Your mother is confused and doesn't understand moral principles. She did something unreasonable. I hope you can consider that she didn't succeed and stop arguing with your mother."

Ting He sneered when he heard this, and just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by the princess's loud voice. The princess stiffened her neck and said:

"Your Majesty, that bitch is just a hen that can't lay eggs. She got so much gold and treasures from Your Majesty for nothing. She must have used the name of our Jingwang Mansion to do things. Your Majesty is also confused. It would be fine if he didn't reward our palace, but how could he reward such a bitch who can't give birth to a child? Besides, I am her mother-in-law. What's wrong with me taking a few things from her..."

There was a loud snap, shaking the earth.

Just listen to the princess' loud voice continuously output:

"Ah~ Prince, you hit me? You actually hit me? Did I say something wrong? What did I do wrong? Why do you hit me? I am your first wife, how could you hit me?"

The princess cried heartbreakingly and screamed unreasonably. The prince felt a little regretful after beating her, but this woman was too hateful. He said:

"Shut up, His Majesty, do you think you can make up this story? Do you know that the things His Majesty bestowed upon us belong to Ting He alone and have nothing to do with our Jingwang Mansion? If you use the things bestowed by His Majesty privately, you will be beheaded. Do you want His Majesty to convict you of greed and disrespect? Do you want our entire Jingwang Mansion to be buried with you?"

The princess was speechless after hearing this. Her anger subsided a little. She murmured in disbelief:

"How is that possible? I didn't take anything. His Majesty can't sentence me to death. I just can't accept why Liu Qinghe can get the reward from His Majesty, but we in Prince Jing's Mansion can't. I'm her mother-in-law. No matter what the imperial gift is, according to the rules, she should give it to me to enjoy."

The prince sneered, looking at her with contempt and disgust, he said: "Humph, according to the rules, the first-rank Xingguo wife is of higher rank than you, a princess of a different surname who has no rank or power. According to the rules, shouldn't you bow to Tinghe?"

The princess stared with hatred in her eyes, and she roared in disbelief:

"Impossible, what first-rank lady? I won't listen, I won't accept it. Why does Liu Tinghe have such a good fate to marry into the palace? Why can she get rewards from His Majesty even though she can't have children? I don't accept it. I'm the princess, I'm her mother-in-law, why does she put herself above me and put my face down? I'm the princess, I'm her mother-in-law, everything she has should belong to me. This bitch, why is she so rich and why is she so lucky... wuwuwu... I don't accept it..."
