My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 2536

2536 Shamed
Shi Yongqian was stunned. She was practically doubting whether the crown prince consort was speaking to her?

The crown prince consort actually spoke to her, the second young lady of the Shi Clan, with such a chilly tone of voice?

“You lack knowledge of etiquette!” Qiao Mu ordered coldly, “Caixiu, teach her!”

Caixiu immediately stepped forward and curtsied to demonstrate. “Greetings to the crown prince consort.”

The young crown prince consort nodded and gestured for Caixiu to rise. She turned to the dumbstruck Shi Yongqian. “Where are your manners!? Do it again.”

Everyone: …

The Kang Prince Consort silently stomached her laughter. She held her handkerchief to her mouth and chuckled, “Second Young Lady Shi, the crown prince consort is speaking to you. Why are you not giving a response? Truly a bit lacking in manners.”

Shi Yongqian’s pretty face was flushed red from shame. She just goggled at the crown prince consort in disbelief.

The young crown prince consort had face slapped her on the left, and then on the right, in front of all these noble ladies and madams with mandates!

Shi Yongqian stood stiffly in front of the little stoic without moving.

In contrast, most of the people inside the main hall were quietly watching the drama. They were now discussing in low whispers.

Most of the people who could sit with the Kang Prince Consort in this main hall were either madams of high status with court mandates, or those whose husbands’ clans were influential powers in the capital.

These women were mostly slick and sly. This Second Young Lady Shi had incurred the young crown prince consort’s ire for some reason and was now being targeted. They didn’t intend to pull aggro by talking.

Besides, this Shi Clan was ranked last out of the six great patrician families, but they were very high-profile. They curried favors with people of power and influence, having unclear relationships with the imperial court. That was not very agreeable.

Not only did they rush to marry off their eldest daughter, Shi Yongyan, to the Zheng Prince as consort, they even used the Zheng Prince’s reputation on multiple occasions to secretly silence some defiant court officials. It was truly unknown why this clan could claim so much influence.

When Shi Yongqian saw that no one was speaking up for her, and that the Zheng Prince Consort standing beside her also seemed to be dumbstruck, she couldn’t help biting her lip aggrievedly. She curtsied and said, “How might this humble one have offended the crown prince consort for you to treat me this way?”

The young crown prince consort did not respond and merely looked icily at this woman.

This woman had been so high-spirited and aloft in her previous life, yet she was showing such a piteous and harmless look right now.

Such an act!

If she didn’t thoroughly know this woman’s temperament, she really would’ve been tricked!

They were meeting several years earlier in this lifetime. Shi Yongqian was just a 17-year-old girl right now. She truly was much less experienced compared to her ruthless and tyrannical MO from the previous life.

Qiao Mu pressed her lips together tightly. She swept over Shi Yongqian’s restless expression and turned around to help the Kang Prince Consort sit. She also took her seat beside the prince consort.

What a rude and domineering crown prince consort!

Even though she had just returned to the capital, she was picking fights and causing trouble everywhere!

The emperor hadn’t acknowledged her identity, yet that woman dared to so brazenly put on airs and punish her?

She truly wanted to see when this menacing woman would fall from her crown prince consort pedestal.

If there was that day…
Shi Yongqian gnashed her teeth. That was the day she would seek revenge and bring eternal doom to this woman.

“Young Lady Shi, you are gnashing your teeth. Might you be cursing this crown prince consort?”
