Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty
Chapter 145 - 145: Loyal Maid Who Died Because of Beauty (15)

"Oh, what news is it?" Chu Ning asked knowingly.

Of course, Chu Ning had long known what they were talking about. She liked watching the fun the most, and thus she was willing to pretend that she did not know anything and even asked Li Xin to repeat everything again in public to give another hard slap to Yi Yan's face with words.

Chu Ning will never forget the third prince's concubine selection that she was present for that year. Just because of Yi Yan's presence, she (Chu Ning) almost missed the chance to become the main wife of the third prince himself!

Yi Yan is just that hateful of a person!

But since she, Chu Ning, was now given the chance to hit Yi Yan's face this time, how could she (Chu Ning) actually let such a chance slip by? She would never let this go, and she was happy to see just how much Yi Yan would suffer!

"Madam, we were actually just talking about Sister Yi Yan's dowry maid," Li Xin started. "Sister Yi Yan had sent her dowry maid to the third prince's bed, and this same dowry maid had somehow gotten the third prince's favor, and thus she was carried out to the front yard and even stayed overnight and has not come out yet from the front yard by now."

This was a treatment that even she had never enjoyed before, Li Xin thought sourly. This move actually hurt the enemy by one thousand and hurt herself by eight hundred. But as long as she could see Yi Yan's uncomfortable face, she would feel much more at ease, and she even felt that the damage she received was actually worth it to see just how much Yi Yan was suffering inside.

Since Li Xin could think of it, other people could also naturally think of it too. But who could tell that it was Yi Yan's dowry maid who had done such a thing? Compared to them, the most uncomfortable person right now would naturally be Yi Yan herself, so everything was just fine.

"It turns out that this was the case," Chu Ning replied as she shifted her eyes to Yi Yan below. "Yi Yan, look at what you have done. In order to fight for the third prince's favor, you had actually done such a despicable thing."

Chu Ning had naturally said this on purpose. Of course, she knew that Yi Yan truly liked Lu Heng, and it was impossible for such a person to send her own dowry maid to climb the third prince's bed. But she, Chu Ning, just wanted to charge Yi Yan with this kind of crime so that others would think that it was actually Yi Yan who took the initiative to push her own dowry maid to solidify and strengthen the third prince's favor for her.

"No, this is not the case. I—" Yi Yan wanted to explain, but how could Chu Ning let her have the chance to do so?

And thus, Chu Ning quickly cut off Yi Yan's words and continued, "All right, I will kindly forget about your mistake this time. But the next time you do this again, I, the main wife, will not be so soft-hearted as to forgive you for the second time. If all the sisters in the backyard actually do things the same way as you do, then everything will be messed up chaotically. Do you hear me?"

"Yes," Yi Yan answered as she lowered her head. She felt wronged for being accused of something that she did not do. "This concubine understands, Madam."

"Madam, do not worry. We dare not do such a thing at all," Li Xin said with a gloating smile.

"That is right," Bai Fen echoed alongside Li Xin's words. "We have not had a close relationship with the third prince since we were young, unlike Sister Yi Yan, so we do not dare to do anything wrong like this at all."

When Chu Ning heard the two people's words, she smiled in her heart. In Chu Ning's mind, Li Xin and Bai Fen were only stupid people, so they could just say whatever they wanted as long as it benefited Chu Ning herself.

Chu Ning only smiled indulgently at the two to show her generosity and virtuousness to everyone inside the room. She was just that kind.

"However, so far, this has not changed the fact that the dowry maid named Yue Ran has no name and no title, so staying in the third prince's front yard will not have a good effect on her after all," Chu Ning said. "Since this is your maid, Yi Yan, then you can go and persuade the third prince about it yourself. And when the time comes to arrange where she will go, she can just stay in your courtyard with you. As for her title, naturally, it will be decided by the third prince himself, something that you have to persuade the third prince about. For now, she should quickly move out of the front yard and first into your courtyard, Yi Yan."

There was a short silence. And in that silence, Yi Yan was gritting her teeth hatefully as she stared at the ground with burning anger in her eyes. This was just too much!

Everything was just too much!

Seeing that Yi Yan did not object to her words, Chu Ning continued with a complacent tone, "It just so happens that you and your dowry maid had grown up together, so it was just right for you two sisters to serve the third prince together. You will be happy about this whenever you think about it, right, Yi Yan?"

"Pfft..." Li Xin made a brief sound out of her mouth to express her contempt for Yi Yan before muffling her own laughter.

Right now, Yi Yan only wished that she could tear up the false kindness on Chu Ning's face for daring to ridicule and make fun of herself like this! But she still had to hold back her anger and (reluctantly) agree to Chu Ning's face following the rules of etiquette.

"Thank you, Madam," Yi Yan replied back to Chu Ning.

Li Xin, by Chu Ning's side, looked extremely happy. This was probably the happiest day that she had ever experienced after entering the third prince's palace after so long.

"Okay, this is enough," Chu Ning said. "Let us stop here for today."

Following Chu Ning's words, everyone stood up from their seats and politely bid their farewells.

After saying a few polite words, Yi Yan quickly left this place and immediately returned to her own courtyard without stopping. She tried hard to ignore the ridicule and laughter of everyone else behind her who was blatantly staring at her defeated back.

…

Yi Yan picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground. The glass shards and the hot tea were scattered everywhere.

Accompanying her actions were her non-stop cursing and scoldings.

"Vixen, they are all shrews! Curse Yue Ran for letting me suffer such humiliation today!" Yi Yan yelled. "Then there are also Chu Ning, Li Xin, and Bai Fen, who are not good things! Die! All of them should die! How could they dare to laugh at me? Curse them all! Die!" She panted and gritted her teeth hard before continuing in an eerie tone, "All of you, wait for me. One day, I will make you regret it!"

Watching from the side was A Luo, Yi Yan's first-class maid, who looked worried.

A Luo carefully comforted Yi Yan by the side as she said, "Madam, please calm yourself. Do not get so angry, or it may hurt your precious body."

Yi Yan sneered as she said, "Oh, do I not even have the right to get angry now?"

"No, Madam," A Luo quickly replied. "This was not what this servant had meant." She lowered her eyes a little before changing the subject smoothly when Yi Yan's mentality was much more sensitive and had already weakened. "Madam, are you going to persuade the prince to give Yue Ran a title?"

"That is impossible!" Yi Yan responded angrily. "Does she deserve it? I will definitely make Yue Ran pay the price of betrayal!"

When A Luo met Yi Yan's resentful eyes at this moment, her pupils quaked and her body trembled a little. A Luo was a little scared by Yi Yan's maddened eyes at this moment and did not dare to say anything at all.

It was also at this time that an idea, a plan, flashed in Yi Yan's mind.

"Since Yue Ran said before that she does not like the third prince at all, then she does not need to thank me so much for fulfilling her wish," Yi Yan said, talking to herself. After saying so, she turned her head a little to the side and called out, "A Luo, come here."

Very quickly, A Luo came close to Yi Yan and listened to the plan that Yi Yan had whispered into her ear. Yi Yan repeated the plan twice before she asked, "Do you remember it now?"

A Luo looked at Yi Yan in disbelief. She never expected that Yi Yan would want to completely destroy and eliminate Yue Ran without giving her any way out!

Looking into A Luo's timid eyes, Yi Yan said threateningly, "Be careful. You have to understand that only this way can Yue Ran not threaten my status."

"Yes," A Luo replied in a very soft tone of voice.
