Je suis née beauté, et je suis suprême

Chapitre 322

“That’s not what I meant.” Chou Qian spoke without any inflection, his tone as if he were discussing something external.

Whether it is or not is not important.

"I'm leaving."

"Where to?" Chouqian stared straight at me, and the quick-witted man certainly understood what I meant.

"have no idea."

"Will you bring Ao Ao and Qian Qian?"

"No." I can't take it with me.

"If you want, I can..."

I patted him to stop him from saying anything more: "Chouqian, they are human beings. It's no use packing them up for me."

"I know."

I know you have the ability to make the impossible possible, but I don't need it, and thank you for not killing or kidnapping me.

"Go back and cook. You can play by yourself." I shouldered the shovel and headed towards the Hexuan Palace...

Let the gaze behind flow into an unseen sea.

...

"Oh! Isn't this Sister Hefei? What brings you out dressed like this today?"

I glanced at the young hen blocking my way and her long tail, then ignored her and kept walking.

"What, does my sister think she can look down on everyone just because she's favored?"

"You're sick: Why isn't Consort Sun staying at home? What's she doing out here? Just because your sister has given birth to the eldest prince, does she think she's the Empress Dowager of the Western Palace?!"

Sun Xiaoxiao giggled, and the more affected her laughter was, the more affected it became.

I shook my head, determined not to let her laugh me off.

"My younger sister is never as carefree as my older sister. She's living the high life right now."

"There's nothing I can do, I'm just naturally likable."

"You!" Sun Xiaoxiao suppressed her resentment and smiled, "Sister, the Emperor belongs to everyone. It would be better if you didn't try to monopolize him."

I laughed back and said, "It's not that I'm hogging him, it's that he's hogging me. If you're so capable, let him hogging you." I'd save myself the trouble of going through the formalities.

Sun Xiaoxiao sneered: "What goes around comes around. Who knows, maybe the Emperor will get tired of your face one day."

"What's the rush? He's not tired of you yet. You should enjoy his exclusive favor while he's still in the mood. Hehe, don't you think so, little sister? It's better than some people who have never been favored in their entire lives."

Someone glared at me, her teeth chattering, her good ladylike manners slowly crumbling away.

I brushed a strand of hair from my chest, pretending not to see it.

"Consort He, don't forget your place."

"Thank you for reminding me, sister. This princess remembers her noble birth."

"You are no longer a princess; you are now just an imperial concubine."

"Oh, Your Highness, sigh, look at my memory, I always remember that I am the princess of the most powerful country, and I have long forgotten the trivial matters of other countries. Thank you for your trouble, sister. But I am still an imperial concubine, and it is good that I have not been reduced to a mere concubine, don't you think, sister?"

"Don't be too arrogant. This is Dongqing, the royal family's territory. You are not the one in power in the harem."

"Is my sister reminding me to ask for the Phoenix Seal?" I've heard that thing is very valuable, and having it to play with won't lower my standards.

Sun Xiaoxiao glared at me resentfully and blurted out, "What do you have to be proud of! You have no support behind you and no hope ahead! You're just a princess sent here for a political marriage! A princess abandoned by the west wind!"

I took a deep breath: It seems I'm going to become everyone's scapegoat. I told you that being favored by the emperor isn't a good thing. Look, a bunch of people don't like me. If I leave, those two little guys will be skinned alive.

I looked at her with annoyance: "It's all because you are too weak, so this princess has no choice but to marry down. If you become rich and powerful someday, this princess would be happy to marry up. I just don't know if I, the abandoned princess, will be able to wait until that day."

"Xi Lingjin, you should die!"

"What did you say?" My hearing is occasionally impaired, probably a lingering effect of an illness.

"You should die!"

"Speak louder, and come closer to me."

You deserve to die!

I'll grant your wish. I gave her a hard shove, and she screamed as she slid into the pond.

I leaned on my shovel, watching the churning lake and the girl kneeling on the ground, too afraid to utter a sound:

"So, is it fun?"

"Help! Help! -- Help!"

Her personal maidservant sneaked out of my sight.

I watched her disappear, bewildered: Why didn't you even say goodbye? I didn't say you couldn't go, but this makes me very unhappy.
