Chapter 79 Qin Changzai is so powerful!
Chapter 79 Qin Changzai is so powerful!
Everyone's eyes turned in the same direction.
The beautiful woman had slender, willow-leaf eyebrows, delicately arched peach blossom eyes, fair skin, and red lips. She walked gracefully toward the crowd.
She wore a pomegranate-red silk dress, and her forehead was adorned with a dazzling jewel, which made her eyes even more radiant.
Her hair was styled in a high bun, black as clouds, and she wore a jade bracelet on her fair wrist.
Qin Jiuwei was already extremely beautiful, and this elaborate attire brought out her beauty even more completely.
Her gaze swept lightly over the crowd.
Several noble ladies blushed unconsciously when she gave them that look.
She was so beautiful that even women would find it hard to resist her gaze.
Not to mention those stinky men...
Qin Jiuwei felt the gazes of the crowd, some admiring, some envious, and some jealous.
She smiled slightly. Knowing that things would turn out this way, she had made a point of dressing up nicely today.
Being Xie Yanli's wife is a conspicuous presence wherever she goes, so she might as well dress up nicely.
Let some people get rid of those inappropriate thoughts as soon as possible.
Xie Jing turned his gaze and saw his mother's somewhat smug and happy expression, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
My mother is really something; sometimes she acts just like a little child.
No, he seems to be just a child...
The banquet had not yet started, and there were no restrictions at this time.
Qin Jiuwei led Xie Jing to a pavilion to sit and rest, waiting for the Princess.
She came to the autumn banquet today for the sake of the eldest princess.
As Qin Jiuwei's departing figure was seen, everyone's eyes widened, and they looked at each other.
The young master Xie's wife is so beautiful?!
But how come they've never seen such a beautiful noblewoman in the capital before?
"I know, because Qin Jiuwei was born out of wedlock, so she has never attended a banquet."
"A concubine's daughter?! How can someone with such a background be worthy of Prince Xie?"
A noblewoman curled her lip, "Does it even matter whether someone's status is worthy of her, given how she looks?"
The women couldn't help but sigh, realizing that they were probably destined to never meet Prince Xie in this lifetime.
The noble ladies arrived first, followed by the imperial concubines one after another.
As soon as Qin Le'an arrived at the Imperial Garden, his eyes searched through the crowd.
They quickly found Qin Jiuwei sitting in the pavilion, along with the little boy beside her.
Qin Le'an naturally recognized Xie Jing; she would recognize this little bastard even if he were reduced to ashes.
In my past life, this brat was the most annoying one. He seemed gentle on the surface, but was actually invulnerable.
I thought he would be the easiest to control, but it turned out that he was the one who secretly tripped me up a lot.
But now she actually saw this brat smiling at Qin Jiu.
Why is it that even though they were both involved in a marriage swap, Qin Jiuwei is still living such a good life?!
Why is it that she has a miserable life, while Qin Jiuwei has a completely different one?
Qin Le'an clenched his right fist tightly, his face flushed red, and strode towards Qin Jiuwei.
"Qin Jiuwei!" A familiar, domineering voice rang out from behind.
Qin Jiuwei turned around and, sure enough, saw Qin Le'an walking up to her with an arrogant expression.
She slightly raised her chin, her eyes and brows full of disdain, "You've come to see me, so why don't you bow to me!"
She entered the palace for this very day: to become the emperor's woman and thus be above Qin Jiuwei.
No matter how powerful Xie Yanli is, he is still a subject! A subject's wife is inferior to the emperor's woman!
And when she becomes empress, she will be the most honored woman in the world!
After saying that, she stared at Qin Jiuwei with a defiant look in her eyes, a smug smirk playing on her lips.
Xie Jing watched from the side, his eyes narrowing dangerously.
Looking for death.
Qin Jiuwei realized that Qin Le'an was deliberately causing trouble.
No matter how badly Qin Le'an's life was in the palace, she was still an imperial concubine, the emperor's woman.
She wasn't someone who couldn't handle something like this, so she gave her a slight curtsy and said, "Consort Qin."
Seeing that Qin Jiuwei merely curtsied, Qin Le'an's eyebrows immediately furrowed. How could that be enough?!
It was not insulting to Qin Jiuwei at all.
Her face darkened, and she shouted in a shrill voice, "Qin Jiuwei, do you not know the rules? Your greeting to me is so perfunctory, you simply don't respect me at all!"
Qin Le'an narrowed his eyes and said, word by word, "I want you to kneel down and kowtow to me!"
Xie Jing's gaze swept coldly over her, his fist clenched tightly in his sleeve.
Seeing this, Qin Jiuwei reached out and gently patted Xie Jing's shoulder, signaling him not to rush.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs all lowered their heads.
The noble ladies who had originally gathered to watch the show were also taken aback by how things had turned out, and they looked at each other in bewilderment.
The atmosphere instantly became so heavy it seemed like water could drip from it.
Immediately afterward, Qin Jiuwei raised her head, her gaze calm: "What if I don't kneel? What does Consort Qin intend to do?"
Qin Jiuwei's voice was soft, but each word was clear, revealing an air of neither arrogance nor servility.
"You said you wouldn't kneel, right?"
Qin Le'an's eyes widened in fury as he shouted angrily at the eunuchs beside him, "You bunch of dog slaves, what are you standing there for? Go and pin her to the ground, kneel down, and kowtow to me!"
"Today, I will teach her a good lesson about palace etiquette!"
The eunuchs were all from Qin Le'an's palace, so naturally they all listened to her.
But she is the wife of Prince Xie...
Xie Shizi's position in the court was so high that it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was second only to the emperor and above ten thousand others.
If they offend Lady Xie today, they will not be able to bear the consequences if Prince Xie offends them in the future.
The eunuchs looked at each other, none of them daring to step forward.
Seeing the eunuchs cowering and standing still, Qin Le'an's face, already flushed with anger, turned a deep purplish-red.
She yelled in a shrill voice, "You useless dogs! Have I been feeding you all this time for nothing? Get up and get out of here!"
A sharp voice pierced the air, and the eunuchs, their faces full of sorrow, were forced to slowly rise by the stern shouts.
Sweat beaded on their foreheads, but they had no choice but to grit their teeth and walk toward Qin Jiuwei.
"Let's see who dares to touch me." A cold glint flashed in Qin Jiuwei's eyes, and her back straightened ramrod straight.
Her voice was clear and resonant, carrying an undeniable authority.
At this shout, the eunuchs' feet, which they had just raised, froze in mid-air.
"Qin Jiuwei, how dare you!" Qin Le'an roared, his voice rising.
If she still can't trample Qin Jiuwei underfoot after the marriage exchange, then her initial choice was simply a joke!
"This is the imperial palace, not a marquis's residence! Do you really think you're still a young mistress here?"
Qin Le'an's face was contorted, and his voice was filled with resentment and unwillingness.
No sooner had she finished speaking than a haughty, arrogant female voice suddenly rang out.
"Qin Changzai, you have quite the air of authority."
Qin Le'an's spine stiffened instantly upon hearing that familiar voice.
Finished!
