Chapter 225 Talk of the Town
Thinking about her mother’s final words, Yun Qianyue couldn’t help but feel chills running down her spine. Subconsciously, she shook her head and said, “No, I don’t want to ride in a carriage with my big sister.”
Saying this, Yun Qianyue took two steps back quickly, looked at Yun Qianxue warily and said, “I don’t think I want to go, I’m not feeling well. Second sister should just go with big sister.”
After saying that, she quickly turned around and ran back inside the residence, ignoring Yun Qianxue whose face had completely darkened.
Yun Qianxue’s face was gloomy and her pupils were bloodshot. Gripping the curtains of the window carriage tightly, Yun Qianxue glared at Yun Qianyue.
‘This little bit*h dares to defy me in front of everyone? You just wait, I’ll get you for this!’
Yun Qianxue’s beautiful face became blue with anger, but Liu Shi gave her a nudge and ordered the coachman, “Alright, let’s go. Let’s go to the Chiang family’s residence.”
Slowly the carriages started to move and the convoy set out to their destination.
Without thinking too much about it, Yun Qianyu knew that Yun Qianyue, her third sister, would be suffering soon; Yun Qianxue was a vengeful person after all.
However, Yun Qianyu was happy to see them fighting each other. In the past, Yun Qianyue had also bullied her predecessor, so she had no intentions to help her.
Among the four powerful families, the Chiang family was second only to the Yan Bei royal family.
The Chiang family had produced not only a queen, but also a crown prince. As long as the crown prince ascended to the throne, the Chiang family would surely climb to the top of the four families.
Therefore, be it officials in the imperial court or businessmen in the capital, naturally everyone came to the banquet to offer their gifts.
All morning, there was a steady stream of carriages arriving in front of the Chiang family’s residence. Guests brought countless gifts and the place seemed very lively.
As soon as the carriage of the Yun family arrived, the housekeeper came out to welcome them.
Yun Lei had come with the officials of the imperial court at an earlier time. Immediately after they came out of the carriage, the housekeeper instructed servants to escort the ladies to the inner courts.
Liu Shi was brought to the Glory Crane Hall, while the young misses were taken to the Sparrow Pavilion.
In Sparrow Pavilion, many young ladies gathered together to chit chat. It was very lively in the room as most of the ladies there grouped into three of five to chat.
However, when Yun Qianxue and Yun Qianyu appeared, many people stopped talking and they all looked toward the two women that had entered the room.
These two ladies had become the talk of the town.
Firstly, it was Yun Qianyu who had made a big scene on her wedding day and later on she was appointed by the emperor to be Xiao Jiuyuan’s princess consort.
Originally everyone thought that Xiao Jiuyuan would not want such a woman, and would certainly get the emperor to retract his orders. However, nothing like that happened.
The women were somewhat disappointed when they heard this. Although they didn’t dare marry Xiao Jiuyuan, they didn’t want Yun Qianyu to marry him either. ‘How could this woman deserve to marry the handsome and powerful Li Prince?’
As for Yun Qianxue, the ladies there also ignored her, since the things that happened to her recently were not very good: on the one hand, the events that happened on Yun Qianyu’s wedding day and on the other hand, she had not only killed her own servant girls, but also killed their entire family.
They felt that getting close to such a woman would only tarnish their name.
Thus, when Yun Qianyu and Yun Qianxue appeared, the room became extremely silent.
