Chapter 1354: Belittling This Princess Consort’s Status
Unexpectedly, Madam Wang glared at her, her expression arrogant, and said, "How should I, the Princess Consort, act? Do I need a little cheap person like you to teach me? You’re not qualified. Get away from me."
In her anger, Madam Wang reverted to her ruthlessness from her days in the brothel.
Indeed, a brothel is a place that devours people. If you’re not ruthless, you’ll be crushed underfoot, unable to rise for eternity. Madam Wang had been in such places since her youth and had suffered all sorts of hardships until she encountered The Emperor, and life improved slightly. However, she merely sold her life for others; her family remained under The Emperor’s control. Many matters were beyond her control. Having finally risen to the position of Princess Consort, she naturally cherished it dearly. Although she still couldn’t escape The Emperor’s control, the title of Princess Consort satisfied her vanity.
Indeed, after years in the brothel, she had always been looked down upon by others.
Having finally climbed up, that feeling was something others couldn’t comprehend.
Being publicly scolded by Madam Wang and losing face, Lady Li was somewhat angry, her hands clenched into fists, nails digging into the flesh without feeling pain: "You..."
Lady Li’s intentions were clear to Xuexue. She was offering her goodwill. As the saying goes, more friends mean more paths. Since she was offering goodwill, Xuexue couldn’t disrespect her.
Xuexue gently pulled the furious Lady Li from in front of her and spoke to Madam Wang, "We’re all the Prince’s women, why must the Princess Consort be so aggressive?"
"Humph! ’We’re all the Prince’s women’—in an instant, you elevate your status. Let me make it clear: the Prince’s women come in many types. You all belong to the dispensable kind, mere tools to warm the Prince’s bed. As for me, I’m different; I’m the Prince’s main wife. No matter how many women the Prince changes, he won’t replace me—his Main Consort. Besides, The Emperor bestowed the marriage personally, so even if the Prince doesn’t care about me, he can’t ignore The Emperor. Therefore, don’t mix me with you guys; you don’t have the qualifications."
After speaking, she burst into an ear-piercing laughter.
Her smug expression made all the women present want to strangle her to death.
