My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 596

Chapter 596: The Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law’s First Meeting

Her red lips were flippant and lithe, and although she had already turned 25, she still dressed up prettily like a 15 or 16-year-old young lady. However, it didn’t look too inharmonious.

The group of royal concubines, consorts, and princesses also simultaneously stood up to give their salutes. Other than Her Majesty the Queen, and those with a comparable respectable and honorable status who didn’t need to be apprehensive of Noble Consort Zheng, none of the other people present dared to be negligent before her.

“You can rise!” Noble Consort Zheng brushed aside the jade tassels grazing her cheeks, and she wore an irreverent smile on her lips as she gave a semi-salute to Her Majesty the Queen, who was sitting in the chief seat. “Greetings to Your Majesty.”

Queen Zhao merely cast her an indifferent glance before nodding.

Just as Noble Consort Zheng’s butt was about to sit down on the first seat below the chief seat, Queen Zhao curled her lips sardonically as she coldly stated, “Sister Zheng, you’re sitting in the wrong place. That over there, is the crown prince consort’s seat.”

Noble Consort Zheng’s smile immediately stiffened on her charming face.

“Cough.” One of the two middle-aged consorts sitting below the place of honor had choked on her tea in laughter.

Although the two were over 40 years old, they were still well-preserved. Even though they couldn’t be considered that young and pretty anymore, at least they still retained their charm and grace. Of these two people, one was the eldest prince Mo Jiao’s mother consort, Consort Cheng, while the other was second prince Mo Lu’s mother consort, Consort Liu.

The person who choked in laughter was Her Highness Consort Cheng, causing Noble Consort Zheng to glare fiercely in her direction.

On the other hand, Consort Liu pretended to dab at her mouth with her handkerchief and didn’t make a sound, but the smile at the corner of her mouth couldn’t be wiped away.

“Sister Zheng, come sit over here.” A 20-something-year-old royal concubine said smilingly in a soft and low voice as she pointed to the seat above Consort Cheng.

Noble Consort Zheng subsequently glared fiercely at her too and sneered, “Her Majesty the Queen’s daughter-in-law that was ordained out of the blue is giving quite the attitude! She’s still not here yet at this time?”

Just as she finished speaking, a eunuch announced from outside Brilliant Sun Hall, “The crown prince and crown prince consort are here.”

The noble daughters and patrician families’ young ladies immediately revealed expectant gazes as they turned to look anxiously at the hall’s open main door.

On the other hand, Noble Consort Zheng couldn’t stay composed anymore as she stared at the seat underneath her half-stooping butt. If looks could split that seat in two, she would’ve long done so.

This d*mned old woman didn’t say this was the crown prince consort’s seat earlier and just had to wait until she was bending over to sit down to say it. It was embarrassing to death!

Standing before the seat, Noble Consort Zheng felt that it was quite discomfiting to walk away now, so she just didn’t sit and gazed coldly at the golden couple that stepped through the doorway while holding hands.

While walking over, the two people had attracted who knows how many people’s attention.

The crown prince and crown prince consort walked in while holding hands in crimson formal attire, looking very spectacular and well-matched. The man was handsome and as upright as bamboo, similar to unworldly fine jade, while the girl had icy and celestial looks resembling the cold moon. No one could find fault with these two people’s appearances, to the extent that a phrase couldn’t help but jump out of everyone’s minds when they witnessed this scene.

A match made in heaven!

As if sitting on a carpet of needles, Mu Qianqian felt like there were 17 or 18 needles stabbing into her butt, and she shifted, unable to sit still. Meanwhile, her pair of vicious eyes stared straight at the red-clothed little lady that walked past her table.

So hateful!

This was her? The lowly wench that popped out of the blue and snatched her position of crown prince consort!

Mu Qianqian completely didn’t realize that she had once seen Qiao Mu at the Qin Estate. Qiao Mu was still in disguise at that time, so compared to her current appearance, it was naturally the difference between heaven and earth.
