Chapter 891: Victory Without Bloodshed

Liu Zhiheng was also not polite. The jade gourds cost five taels of silver each, and the gold fruits cost one tael of silver each. Those who wanted to buy them had to place orders in advance, and the...The girl in the crimson cloak blinked her big eyes and suddenly remembered that one of her companions had a cousin who was eighteen but still unmarried. She gasped in surprise.

The girl in the azure cloak nodded slightly, her voice a low whisper: "In Kyoto, there are countless noblewomen with such thoughts."

After sharing their secret, the two of them felt even closer. They leaned against each other and chatted quietly.

Soon, it was their turn to enter the palace with their own imperial grandmother.

Jia Yin sat listlessly in her place, allowing others to look at her, and she in turn scrutinized those around her.

Unfortunately, the court ladies who could enter the palace without queuing had very important statuses. This also meant that most of them were not young.

Jia Yin really wasn't interested, just staring blankly with the same group of old ladies and middle-aged women.

But the banquet hall was divided in two, with a screen separating the male guests on one side from the female guests on the other. Jia Yin wanted to see her adoptive father and her biological father, but she couldn't.

She rummaged in her cloak for a while and pulled out a travelogue to pass the time.

Before she went out, she slung a small, flat bag over her shoulder for easy access from the spatial dimension.

This travelogue describes the customs and people of the southwest desert, which Jia Yin finds very interesting.

Just as she was thinking about letting Lao Hei and the others take a walk later, the owner of the next table finally arrived.

She glanced over and saw two girls around her age. They looked pretty good, dressed well too, so she took the book and decided to chat with them for a bit.

After all, a palace banquet can be so dull without company, it's really unbearable.

She hadn't even settled into her seat, putting on her most charming smile, when the two little girls scrutinized her with narrowed eyes. In the end, they looked at her with disgust and envy all over their faces...

Jiayin was stunned, not understanding what was wrong.

Luckily, the two little girls weren't too cunning and took the initiative to clear Jia Yin's doubts.

The girl in the crimson cloak muttered softly, "What's the point of putting on a show Even going to a palace banquet requires reading, huh. Does she want everyone to know how well-read she is"

The girl in the azure cloak also scoffed, "Yes, but who doesn't know she was born into peasant stock Read all the books you want, adorn yourself with as many jewels as you like, it won't change a thing about that earthy stench clinging to her."

"Oh, sister, don't say that. There must be a good reason why she did this, maybe she wants to make someone completely smitten with her. Don't ruin her chances!"

The little girl in the crimson cloak, perhaps thinking that Jiayin hadn't spoken because she was afraid of them, raised her voice even higher.

Shui Ling and Shui Yun, seeing their master reading, shouldered the responsibility of keeping watch in all directions.

At first, they didn't pay attention to the two noble ladies. Later, when they discovered that the latter were actually mocking their own master, they became truly angry.

In an instant, both of their minds flashed through at least a dozen ways to die, wishing they could choose the most miserable one for these two "talkative donkeys"!

But before they could speak, Jia Yin pulled at their sleeves and主動ly walked up to the two noble ladies, smiling sweetly as she asked, "Who are you two from"

"Are you causing trouble outside Are you sure your family can handle it"

For example, if I settle accounts with you properly now, will your families make you kowtow to me at the Sùjīn Beach later

"If that's the case, then you'll be in a difficult position, and you'll regret being so talkative now. There will be no way to make amends!"

The two noblewomen didn't expect Jia Yin to confront them directly.

After all, they had done this to others before, and without exception, those little girls would either endure it, pretend not to hear, or run away crying.

Thinking again about Jia Yin's identity, and Li's family and the Marquis's protection, they were a little panicked.

But to admit this, they were unwilling, and their faces became even more difficult.

Therefore, the noblewoman in the crimson cloak retorted with a stiff neck, "Lady, even if your status is higher, you can't falsely accuse us like this!

“We were just chatting casually, not mentioning anyone by name. If the County Princess insists on taking it personally, there’s nothing we can do!”

"Well, you certainly have a way with words!" Jia Yin laughed, giving a thumbs-up. "It seems like you two are quite skilled at this sort of thing, huh You've clearly practiced your evasive tactics."

The noblewoman in the azure cloak glanced around and saw that many people were looking at her. She felt confident and said, "Your Highness has misunderstood. We are all strictly disciplined since childhood and have never done anything disrespectful."

"What's all this about yin and yang, strange energies We don't understand such things. Only those lowborn women would resort to such despicable tactics!"

Jia Yin was really amused, she didn't check the calendar today before going out, and she actually ran into a closed-mouth person.

Having nothing to do, she got the idea of disciplining the children.

She pulled her chair closer, edging herself further towards the two ladies.

To outsiders, the three young girls seemed to get along very well.

"Just now, I heard you say that I'm from the mud and have a rustic smell"

Jia Yin laughed and asked, not allowing the two noble ladies to argue further, "In fact, you're not wrong. I do have a rustic smell."

"What's wrong with soil It's Mother Earth! I don't see anything bad about it!"

"It's better than smelling of copper all over and having a heart full of filth and darkness!"

The two young ladies' eyes widened in astonishment, and they were about to get angry.

Jia Yin pressed their hands down and smiled even more cheerfully, "Actually, everything in this world has a taste, it's just that you don't know it. I'll give you some popular science today."

For example, the greens you eat every day are so green because they're watered with manure and water every day. They grow big and lush thanks to that smelly watering.

"You ate vegetables, you are actually eating feces!"

And you eat fruit, which needs to be watered with manure, not to mention that you occasionally bury dead cats and dogs under the trees.

Because the fur, internal organs of cats and dogs after rotting are all nutrients, which will make fruits grow better.

"Likewise, when you eat fruit, it's as if you're eating... dead cats and rotten dogs!

"

And let's talk about your three meals a day. You didn't prepare them yourself, did you Who cooked them, then, a chef

"I hope you haven't offended the chef, or he might spit in your food while cooking, or not wash his hands after using the toilet... Ugh!"

Jia Yin shook her head and tutted as she spoke, even fanning the air in front of her nose, looking as if she found the two girls nauseatingly disgusting.

Two young ladies tried countless times to interrupt Jia Yin's eloquent speech, but Jia Yin was quick-witted and wouldn't give them a chance!

Both of them listened from beginning to end, endured and endured, they really couldn't stand it anymore, so they turned their heads and vomited.

"Ugh...don't say it!"

"Please stop talking! Ugh..."

At this time, almost all the guests who had been invited to the banquet had arrived.

Because it was a palace banquet, no one dared to be presumptuous. Everyone spoke in hushed tones.

The two noble ladies suddenly vomited and were immediately surrounded by curious stares from everyone.

Even if the two noble maidens' grandmothers immediately sent their nannies to inquire and made excuses that the two had been caught in a wind on the road, everyone's expression was still very strange.

Woman, retching...

These two words together make people wonder if something good is about to happen.

Luckily, these two young ladies are still young and people wouldn't take them seriously. However, they have definitely lost face...

And Jia Yin had already retreated to her seat, holding a hand warmer and quietly yawning.

Shui Ling and Shui Yun were even trying their best to hold back their laughter, pinching each other's thighs secretly.

No bloodshed, the young mistress is still amazing!

Before the two noblewomen could report to their grandmother, a sudden commotion broke out at the palace gate.

The Emperor, in a brilliant yellow dragon robe, had already entered with the Empress Dowager...
