The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1846: Chapter 1846: There’s a Snake (3)

Du Juan withdrew to the back without a trace.

”You...”

”The Empress Dowager’s favor towards you is a grace, and usually, everyone tolerates you as a gesture towards the Empress Dowager. But if you think that allows you to do as you please, this Princess of Pingning County does not mind going to the Empress Dowager or the Emperor to reason things out.” Jiang Fangfei glanced at Zuo Qingqing and Shen Jiayin, ”Some people would do well not to stir up trouble, or else, who knows what the consequences might be.”

Shen Jiayin’s expression stiffened for a moment, and her hands clenched within her sleeves. She didn’t understand. Her grandfather was the Minister of Revenue, one of the most favored ministers by the Emperor, and she had known this Princess of Pingning County for a while. Why was she so protective of Yang Ruxin, whom she had just met? Despite her attempts to ingratiate herself, it seemed like the Princess remained indifferent towards her. She couldn’t help but cast a glance at Yang Ruxin, a flash of hatred crossing her eyes. It was all because of this woman...

But Zuo Qingqing could only shrink her neck. She didn’t have the confidence to face off against Jiang Fangfei, especially after witnessing even Wang Zhengzheng being angered.

In fact, Wang Zhengzheng was astonished because Jiang Fangfei had always been polite to her, sometimes even ignoring her excesses. Thus, she never regarded the Princess as significant, let alone the young Qi Zizi. Yet now, Jiang Fangfei actually turned against her for Yang Ruxin?

Yang Ruxin also didn’t expect Jiang Fangfei to turn against her circle. She felt grateful. Perhaps Jiang Fangfei’s kindness had an ulterior motive, but who interacts without some purpose? Even parents consider which child can provide them a better future in their nurturing.

As long as the motive isn’t vile, she’s willing to accept it.

After finishing her words, Jiang Fangfei turned and pulled Yang Ruxin and Hen Ziyue away.

Yang Ruxin looked back at the group behind and gave a mysterious smile.

”Sister Ruxin, wait. In the future, I’ll avenge you,” Qi Zizi, who hadn’t run far, witnessed the scene just now and said seriously. If only she wasn’t chewing on a sweetsugar tuck as she spoke, it might have been more convincing. But her puffed cheeks were quite comical.

”Okay.” Yang Ruxin nodded.

But at this moment, a piercing scream came from behind: ”Snake...”

Jiang Fangfei and the others hurriedly halted and turned back to see chaos, several girls and a palace maid jumping and screaming in panic.

One even fainted directly.

”How could there be a snake in the Imperial Garden?” Jiang Fangfei frowned but still immediately ordered people to assist.

However, the eunuchs searched with sticks for a long time without finding a trace of a snake.

”There definitely was!” Wang Zhengzheng cried out, ”It crawled onto my leg earlier, so cold...”

”Yes, I saw it too.” Zuo Qingqing also clung to her maid, crying rivers of tears. ”That green snake hissed at me...”

Only Shen Jiayin stood to the side with a pale face, visibly trembling, but stubbornly holding herself up.

The one who fainted was Wei Ran, the granddaughter of Wei Shicheng from the Court of Judicial.

This Wei Shicheng was the younger brother of the Old Master of the Longfeng Embroidery Store’s Wei Family.

Like Zuo Qingqing, Wei Ran was a follower of Shen Jiayin, but as she was born a concubine’s daughter, she didn’t have Zuo Qingqing’s brazenness.
