Mind Reading: Who understands? The emperor finally has a princess.

Chapter 197 If You Can’t Speak, Don’t Speak

"What Madam Wei said, Chihiro also envies such women. Just now, seeing the Second Young Lady stand up so bravely, Chihiro admires her very much."

Madam Wei: "Hey, as long as you like it, silly girl. You will meet someone you like too, girl from the Yun family."

But after a while, the second young lady of the Lin family came back.

I have been feeling depressed since I came back.

Lin Shiyin comforted her: "Why, were you rejected?"

Lin Shiyi: "Sister, he said he has someone he likes? That's impossible. I've checked, and he just arrived in Beijing not long ago. How is that possible?"

Lin Shiyin: "If that's the case, then your destiny hasn't arrived yet."

Lin Shiyi: "What a pity! I actually like people like him."

Yun Qianxun quietly observed that the second young lady of the Lin family did not seem very happy to have returned.

She subconsciously looked at Zhang Qianhe, but she didn't expect that Zhang Qianhe was also looking at her.

She turned her head subconsciously.

I felt a little nervous.

Mrs. Zhang is right next to him, so he must be looking at his own mother!

The wife of the Grand Tutor: "Madam Zhang, your mother was also my good friend back then. I even held you in my arms when you were born!"

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her eyes became moist.

Madam Zhang subconsciously asked, "Madam Taishi, what does my mother look like?"

The Grand Tutor's wife said, "She is very beautiful, very talented, and has a beautiful handwriting. She was the most talented woman in the capital back then. She fell in love with your father at first sight. They were so loving, I envy her so much."

The Grand Tutor once promised his wife that they would be together for the rest of their lives, but he married several concubines.

But the Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy did not have one, and he still has only one wife.

Even though his wife became blind in one eye and went crazy because of missing their daughter, he still loved her as before.

At that time, who among the ladies in the capital did not envy the wives of the Grand Secretaries of the Hanlin Academy?

"So what? It's not a short life. If she hadn't lost the child back then, this wouldn't have happened. Lord Jun still doesn't even have a successor."

Mrs. Taiwei: "Mrs. Niu, if you can't speak, don't speak."

Mrs. Niu is the wife of the Minister of Rites, Lord Niu. She is a hot-tempered person and no one likes to associate with her.

Madam Niu: "I'm not wrong. For a lost girl, she made Lord Jun have no descendants. I don't know how she can be a mistress!"

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she clenched her fists in guilt.

If my mother had been able to forget me back then, perhaps I could have lived the rest of my life...

The general was so angry that he slammed the table!

"Don't think we don't know what happened back then. You're just pursuing Lord Jun, but Lord Jun wouldn't like someone like you. Stop being so sentimental."

When her thoughts were exposed, Mrs. Niu immediately started cursing.

"Madam Taiwei, what nonsense are you talking about? I am the wife of the Minister of Rites, how could I like Jun Jiuling? A man like him deserves to be a widow with his first wife!" After saying this, Madam Niu looked at Madam Zhang.

"And you, even if your son is the top scholar, so what? I heard that you were bought by the Zhang family as a child bride. Who knows if you are clean or not? With a mother like you, this top scholar probably wouldn't have much face to serve as an official in the court."

After Mrs. Niu said this, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Mrs. Zhang was shaking with anger.

Yun Qianxun was completely speechless. How could a noble lady in the capital be so violent and unreasonable?

Yun Qianxun: "You are the wife of the Minister of Rites, how can you speak so harshly? The Jun family's plight is enough to make anyone cry, how can you be so heartless? Besides, Aunt Zhang's situation was her own fault, what has it to do with her? The traffickers and buyers don't see you standing up for justice, but are instead aiding and abetting the evil. You are unworthy of being a mother. Your husband is the Minister of Rites, and you are also a woman of high rank. You eat the emperor's salary and should share the worries of the people, but what have you done? People like you are truly a disgrace! My Yun family will not associate with people like you!"

The Grand Marshal's wife clapped her hands: "Well done, the Yun family girl said it well!"

The wife of the Grand Tutor: "Madam Niu, don't you see what kind of occasion this is? There are some things you should say, and some things you shouldn't say!"

How could Mrs. Niu tolerate being scolded like that by a little girl?

"How dare you contradict me? This is the capital. The Empress Dowager is my cousin. Your Yun family is just a group of scholars who have just arrived in the capital. How dare you shout at me like this? You are just like the mother of this number one scholar. You are not worthy of being on the stage!"

Yun Qianxun didn't expect that there was a Queen Mother behind Mrs. Niu!

Yun Qianxun felt that he had caused a big trouble for the Yun family.

But she felt she was right.

So she stood up and looked at Madam Zhang: "Madam, I don't want to sit at the same table with this person. Why don't you come with me to the empty table next to me?"

Mrs. Zhang looked at everyone and nodded.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the wife of the Grand Marshal and the wife of the Grand Tutor also stood up.

Seeing this, the Prime Minister's wife, Madam Wei and others also stood up.

Mrs. Taiwei: "I don't think I'm worthy of sitting at the same table with Madam Niu!"

The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of civil and military officials.

The general was a fiercely protective wife-loving man, and he hurried over: "Madam, what happened? Why are you so angry?"

The Grand Marshal's wife said: "Some people think that they are superior because they have the support of the Queen Mother. We are not worthy of sitting at the same table with them."

At this time, the Prime Minister, Lord Wei, Lord Jun and others came over.

Hearing this, the Prime Minister asked, "Madam, please sit down!"

The Prime Minister did not let his wife move and asked Xier to sit down directly.

Then the Prime Minister looked at Madam Niu and said, "I didn't know there were so many levels to a banquet!"

The Grand Tutor also came over: "Why? The Imperial Tutor's wife is not worthy?"

Mrs. Niu suddenly became nervous. After all, these people were veterans of three dynasties. Mrs. Niu looked at her husband, the Minister of Rites, for help.

Lord Niu came over and said, "Grand Marshal, Grand Tutor, Prime Minister, there must be some misunderstanding here."

Yun Qianxun: "Misunderstanding? The misunderstanding is that the wife of the Minister of Rites publicly mocked the wife of the top scholar for being a child bride? Madam Niu didn't suffer any hardship, so her words can't hurt me, right?"

Upon hearing this, Jun Jiuling exploded!

"It's a joke! I never thought the Niu family would be so arrogant, treating people's suffering as a joke. The pain I've felt over the years of losing my daughter is nothing in Madam Niu's eyes."

Seeing Jun Jiuling angry, Madam Niu said anxiously, "Master Jun, that's not what I meant. I just feel sorry for you because the Jun family has not even had an heir over the years."

Jun Jiuling snorted coldly: "This is my descendant!"

Jun Jiuling came over and took Mrs. Zhang's hand.

He patted the back of her hand and signaled her not to be afraid.

"As long as I'm here, no one will bully my daughter!"

Then Jun Jiuling turned to Lord Niu and said, "Lord Niu, your family members no longer need to go to the Imperial College. I am not worthy of teaching you. I believe that scholars all over the world will no longer associate with your family."

Lord Niu said in a panic, "Lord Jun, this girl is just talking nonsense. Madam didn't mean that. Besides, the Queen Mother is here today, and it's the little princess's full moon banquet. Don't ruin the atmosphere."

After the Yun family's father and son learned what had happened, they felt that their sister had done a good thing.

Yun Qianhe was the first to speak out: "We, the scholars of Jiangnan, support Master Jun. Lord Niu's actions should be condemned by us scholars as a warning to others!"
