HCB Chapter 657: Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
Chapter 657: Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
Leng Rongyue's light words sent Jiang Ruofu to the brink of a rampage.
The four people in green, blue and purple burst out laughing on the spot.
The maids and servants around Jiang Ruofu suddenly opened their eyes wide and looked at Leng Rongyue in horror.
Jiang Ruofu finally stopped looking up and pointing her nose at Leng Rongyue.
"You...you...you...what did you say?
How dare you... How dare you...
How dare you say that this lady...
Say this lady..."
Jiang Ruofu was shocked and angry. She raised her trembling hands and pointed at Leng Rongyue angrily, her lips trembling with anger.
Jiang Ruofu has always been mysteriously confident about her appearance.
All I hear on weekdays are compliments about her appearance...
How often do you not praise the maids and servants around you dozens of times a day?
Who among my close friends doesn’t say that I’m as beautiful as a fairy?
When the wives of officials in the capital saw me, they would all praise me for my beauty and talent!
But today...
Today, someone actually knew my identity and dared to mock me in person...
Mocking myself...big nostrils! Ugly?
Are your nostrils big?
Ugly?
Jiang Ruofu was almost angry to death!
She gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, and ordered, "Someone, smash this bitch's mouth!"
"Yes, miss!"
It was the little maid who responded first.
She rolled up her sleeves and walked quickly towards Leng Rongyue.
But before she could make the next move, the man in green moved forward instantly and waved his hand. There was a crisp "pa" sound, and a slap landed steadily and accurately on the face of the little maid.
It's hard to say how much strength Qing Yi has in her hands...
The little maid was whipped so hard that she spun around twice and fell into the half-man-high weeds on the roadside... She disappeared...
"what!"
Jiang Ruofu screamed in shock and stood there with her mouth wide open, unable to utter another word!
Leng Rongyue still stood there calmly and indifferently, as if nothing had just happened.
There was a brief silence on the mountain path.
For a moment, the only sound that could be heard was the breeze blowing through the woods.
After a long while, Jiang Ruofu finally came back to his senses...
She pointed at Leng Rongyue and the others with a ferocious look on her face and shouted, "How dare you!
Bold!
You are so brave!
You actually... actually dared to attack our people in the Second Assistant Mansion, you are seeking death!
Someone come!
Give them to me..."
"Miss, calm down!"
At this moment, a woman carrying a food box behind Jiang Ruofu suddenly spoke up, interrupting what Jiang Ruofu was about to say.
This old woman has been staring at Leng Rongyue for quite a long time!
At this moment, she spoke to stop the furious Jiang Ruofu, took a step forward, and whispered in Jiang Ruofu's ear: "Miss, I see this woman in front of me... seems to be... seems to be..."
"What does it look like?"
Jiang Ruofu was already very angry when she was interrupted by a servant.
Now hearing me speaking hesitantly, he becomes even more impatient!
The old woman looked at Leng Rongyue carefully for a few more times, and then lowered her voice and said, "If...if this servant is not mistaken, she is...she is the one...the one who was married to His Royal Highness Prince Yu by the Emperor...Leng Rongyue!"
"what?
Jiang Ruofu's eyes widened again...
“Is it her?
You...you didn't admit your mistake?"
Jiang Ruofu suddenly turned her head and stared at the elegant woman in front of her.
"pretty close!"
The mother-in-law nodded.
"That day, Shuntian Prefecture opened a court to try the case of Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian who murdered his wife and stole her property. Madam... Madam, didn't you send me to watch the trial?
It was there that I saw the true face of Miss Leng!
But...but the person in front of me is wearing a veil, so I can't be 100% sure.
But, just based on those eyes;
Just look at the look in those eyes...
pretty close!"
Jiang Ruofu was stunned by the words of the old woman.
It was as if someone had cast a spell upon him. He stared at the woman in front of him but was unable to utter a word.
Although I couldn't speak, my mind was in turmoil at this moment!
The woman in front of you who was married to His Royal Highness Prince Yu by the Emperor is this one?
Is she the Leng Rongyue who is engaged to His Royal Highness Prince Yu?
Yes, my grandfather told me that Leng Rongyue was the granddaughter of Duke Anguo.
During these three days, she followed her maternal grandfather, Duke Anguo's family, in chanting scriptures and worshipping Buddha in Qingguo Temple, praying for the soul of her mother who died early.
After coming here, I wanted to see with my own eyes how miserable Leng Rongyue, who had become the "daughter of a guilty minister", was now!
But the morning classes at Qingguo Temple are too early!
I was already very tired from rushing up the mountain yesterday;
Because he was about to see his long-cherished Highness Prince Yu, he was so excited that after arriving here, he did not rest for a moment, but searched everywhere inside and outside the temple for the figure of Prince Yu.
By the time I returned disappointed, washed up and went to bed, it was already late at night.
How could I possibly get up and do morning lessons when I just went to bed in the late night?
By the time I woke up, the morning class was already over.
Afterwards, when Duke Anguo and his family were chanting scriptures with Master Wuchen, he could not get close at all.
Therefore, he was unable to see what Leng Rongyue, the daughter of the traitor, looked like.
Unexpectedly, we met on this mountain path.
It’s true... Enemies always meet in a narrow road!
