Chapter 1768 Chaos in the Palace
Chapter 1768 Chaos in the Palace
The Crown Prince looked at the Fifth Princess.
The Fifth Princess's eyes were now clear and her expression was earnest.
It sounds like she really is worried about her uncle who is still outside.
I genuinely want to help.
However, the Crown Prince, seeing the Fifth Princess in this state, still refused her.
"Xiao Wu, go back to Consort Yu's side. She probably needs you. This door must not be opened; that's what my uncle just told me," the Crown Prince said.
The Fifth Princess moved her lips, but finally nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll listen to my uncle."
After saying that, she retreated to Consort Yu's side.
Consort Yu immediately grabbed her arm, snuggled closer to her, and whispered, "Why are you still going to the Crown Prince's side? How can the Crown Prince listen to you?"
"It's alright, I was just worried about my uncle." The Fifth Princess gently patted her arm, and it was clear that Consort Yu's heart calmed down after she came over.
The Empress Dowager and Consort Shu, who were standing nearby, both glanced at the Fifth Princess.
They didn't say anything, but the Sixth Princess couldn't help but speak sarcastically.
"You're such a flatterer, you're everywhere."
The Fifth Princess also went there a while ago regarding the BMW incident at Qiumo Lake.
The Sixth Princess didn't go that time. Although the incident at the lake later frightened everyone, and the Sixth Princess was secretly glad she hadn't gone, that was another matter. Her father didn't take her, and she felt that she was no longer favored.
The sixth princess felt that she had been really unlucky these past two years.
She used to be very favored. Whatever she wanted, wherever she wanted to go, her father would never refuse her, and she was always the first person he thought of. The Sixth Princess was really uncomfortable with the Fifth Princess appearing now and taking her place.
How wonderful it would be if the Fifth Princess could just continue living a secluded life like before.
"Sixth sister, what are you saying? Aren't you worried about your uncle, or your brother the crown prince?" The fifth princess looked at the sixth princess and smiled slightly at her.
The Fifth Princess saw this smile as provocative.
The Sixth Princess didn't know why, but looking at the Fifth Princess's appearance, a surge of anger suddenly rushed to the top of her head. She felt that the Fifth Princess's smile was not only provocative, but also mocking and malicious.
"You're trying to slander me!"
The sixth princess suddenly stood up and rushed towards the fifth princess, while simultaneously reaching out and scratching the fifth princess's face hard.
"Hey!"
Consort Yu was shocked to see this and instinctively reached out to pull the Fifth Princess into her arms, trying to protect her.
The Sixth Princess scratched Consort Yu's head hard, pulling her hair down and scratching her neck with her fingernails.
Consort Yu hissed in pain.
But the Sixth Princess was still relentless. Seeing that she had failed to catch the Fifth Princess, she grabbed Consort Yu's hair and screamed, "Get out of my way!"
After pulling Consort Yu away, she reached out again and scratched the Fifth Princess's face.
Wasn't it said that the Fifth Princess resembled the Emperor in his youth? Seeing the Fifth Princess reminded the Emperor of his youthful good looks, which is why he liked her. Well then, she'll ruin that face and see how the Fifth Princess tries to win favor with such a face.
She used to be the one who received the Emperor's favor, along with her mother, her second brother, and her own father, but now it feels like that favor has been taken away from her.
During this time, the sixth princess also felt that she had had enough.
"little six!"
The crown prince turned around, saw what was happening, and immediately shouted, "Stop!"
"Crown Prince, you also want to protect her?"
As the Sixth Princess reached out to scratch, she saw the Fifth Princess, who was being protected by Consort Yu, raise her head and then smirk at her, revealing an even more malicious and mocking smile.
Her blood rushed to the top of her head.
How could they withstand such provocation?
"She's a little bitch!"
The sixth princess's eyes reddened, and she suddenly scratched at the fifth princess again.
In that instant, she also noticed something was wrong—
Because the Fifth Princess neither dodged nor avoided it.
The sixth princess scratched her hard.
But at the last moment, the Fifth Princess slightly turned her head, so the Sixth Princess ended up scratching her face and neck.
The skin was scratched open, and beads of blood seeped out.
The Crown Prince had already grabbed the Sixth Princess's wrist, but because he was originally by the door and was still several steps away, he was already a step too late.
At that moment, the fifth princess looked up at him.
The two bloodstains were very obvious.
Even for an ordinary girl, having two bloody scratches like these is bad enough, as she might be disfigured.
Moreover, she was a royal princess?
When the Crown Prince saw the bloodstains on the Fifth Princess's face and neck, his expression changed slightly.
Even the Empress Dowager exclaimed in surprise, repeatedly saying, "Why are they fighting? What if they get disfigured?"
Seeing this, Consort Shu quickly stood up, grabbed the Sixth Princess's other hand, pinched her, and scolded, "What's wrong with you? Who taught you to hit your Fifth Sister like that? Even if the two sisters have some quarrels, and you have grievances, you can talk about it later. Quickly apologize to your Fifth Sister!"
After saying that, she said to the Fifth Princess, "Little Fifth, your Sixth Sister is childish and has a quick temper. She's been spoiled by me all this time, so don't take it to heart. I'll make sure she apologizes to you properly. When we get back to the palace, I'll have someone get you Snow Lotus White Jade Ointment. I promise you won't have any scars on your face."
Consort Shu immediately defined the incident as a minor quarrel between the two sisters. She even claimed that the Sixth Princess had suffered some injustice and lost her temper, which led to the physical altercation.
She planned to settle the matter with a bottle of Snow Lotus White Jade Cream.
The Fifth Princess lowered her eyes, concealing the fierceness within them.
That's how she truly expressed her grievances silently. Even the Empress Dowager couldn't bear to watch.
"What's wrong with Xiao Liu! Don't you even know what's going on? Stop fooling around! No matter what, you shouldn't have hit him! What will you do if Xiao Wu's face is disfigured!"
She glanced at Consort Yu again.
Moreover, it's true that the Sixth Princess just grabbed Consort Yu's hair...
This is definitely not something a princess could do.
The Sixth Princess had calmed down a bit by this time. She looked at Consort Yu, whose hair was disheveled, and then at the Fifth Princess, who had her head down. Suddenly, she felt very flustered.
"me......"
She suddenly looked at the Crown Prince, "Brother Crown Prince, I don't know what happened to me just now..."
She really didn't intend to harm the Fifth Princess and Consort Yu, but just now, for some reason, she suddenly felt a surge of anger and acted recklessly.
She suddenly pointed at the Fifth Princess, "She provoked me first!"
"Sixth Prince!" Consort Shu was also annoyed. What was wrong with this child? He should have shown some weakness at this time.
If she continues to say that, the Fifth Princess will only seize on her weakness and refuse to let go.
Sure enough, after the Sixth Princess uttered those words, Consort Yu brushed her disheveled hair aside, looked at the Sixth Princess with a wronged expression, and said, "Sixth Princess, our Fifth Princess didn't say anything."
The Crown Prince frowned. "Sixth Prince, apologize!"
