Chapter 240 Zhao Ning is wronged
The angry woman was completely irrational, and Zhao Ning had been smooth sailing since childhood. When he was little, he went out to play and even sneaked out.
But those cousins, uncles, and other relatives were all very nervous. Wherever she went, the place was cleared out, not even pedestrians could see her, so naturally it wouldn't affect anything.
Even if she was willful and insisted on walking, the aunts, uncles, and maids who were beside her would coax her along the way. When she got tired, they would give her a step down and then happily welcome her to the carriage.
So, in Zhao Ning's eyes, today was no different from the past. She didn't take her mother's words to heart at all. She wanted to leave on her own, and no matter how the King of Ning tried to coax her, she would not compromise!
After all, she was a pampered young lady. Even though the official road was flat, Zhao Ning could not stop her from deliberately walking to the side.
She accidentally sprained her ankle, and the pain was so severe that tears came to her eyes.
The mother was startled and hurried forward to support Zhao Ning. She ordered her followers to bring a stool and lay a blanket on it before letting Zhao Ning sit on it.
"Oh, my lady, what should I do now?"
Feeling distressed, the mother turned back to look at Prince Ning.
But Prince Ning didn't even get off his horse. He stopped by the roadside and watched everything coldly. After Zhao Ning sat down, he gave orders in a cold voice.
"A Song, you take a team to escort County Lady Zhao Ning and make sure she returns to the Princess's residence safely."
After saying this, he was about to ride away.
My mother was extremely surprised and quickly stepped forward to stop him: "Your Highness Prince Ning, the Princess has handed the County Lady over to you. You must send her back to the Princess's Mansion. How can you..."
Prince Ning raised his brows and said in a cold voice, "I have official business to attend to. How can I accompany the county lady in such a riot? My people will not make any mistakes in their work. They will certainly follow the princess's orders and escort the county lady back safely."
Before he finished speaking, the horses had already gone far away, raising a cloud of dust.
The people behind also followed, leaving only Asong and eight others guarding aside.
My mother didn't come back to her senses for a long time. The eldest princess's intention was not just to ask His Royal Highness Prince Ning to send the person back, but to create an opportunity for the two of them to be alone.
This opportunity was not created, and the conflict between the two seemed...
Zhao Ning had never suffered such an injustice before, and her sprained ankle was swollen and painful, so she couldn't help but cry out "wow".
The mother had no choice but to return to the county lady and try to persuade her kindly.
"County Lady, I'll have you loaded onto the carriage and return home first, okay?"
Zhao Ning refused: "My feet are swollen and hurt so much!"
My mother continued, "Then shall I send someone to the clinic to get a doctor to take a look at you?"
Zhao Ning was furious and refused to listen to anyone else. He angrily said, "Does anyone have the right to look at my feet?"
Mom was very helpless.
Ah Song thought for a moment and stepped forward, saying, "It's not wrong for the county lady to cherish her reputation, but the guards at the palace are specially trained and will never speak carelessly. Why don't you send a doctor over later? Then, put on your veil and say it was just an ordinary merchant girl who was injured."
"Who do you think you are? How dare you order this county lady to do things?"
Zhao Ning stood up suddenly.
Although she was unruly and willful, she was not a domineering person. However, she was very unhappy today, and her disgust for Prince Ning had reached its peak. Asong was Prince Ning's man, and Zhao Ning naturally hated him to the extreme, so there was no way she would listen to him.
"Get out of here!"
Asong touched his nose, but he didn't bother with this unruly little girl. He stepped aside and stopped talking.
But Zhao Ning's movement made her swollen ankle hurt even more. Her tears welled up and she leaned on her mother and sobbed.
A group of maids were worried and anxiously trying to persuade him, while the servants of Prince Ning's mansion were watching closely and doing their duties.
"Hey...is this...someone from the Princess's Mansion?"
A voice was heard outside, and Zhao Ning stopped crying. She hurriedly tried to wipe her tears, but she was crying so hard that before she finished wiping her tears, the little bully who was at odds with her came up to her.
"Who was it I thought? It turned out to be the county lady!"
Feng Zizhou walked up nonchalantly, and when he saw Zhao Ning crying, he immediately started mocking her.
"You're already an adult, yet you're still crying here, hahaha."
"Feng Zizhou!" Zhao Ning's face turned red with anger, and he really wanted to punch this guy.
"Why call me grandpa?" Feng Zizhou blurted out the words without even thinking about whether it was appropriate or not.
Asong half opened his mouth, thinking that since she was indeed someone that the emperor loved, it didn't matter if she was not careful with her words.
No one in the world, not even the county lady's grandfather, would dare to be so proud and shout in front of the county lady. After all, the county lady is the daughter of the eldest princess and the granddaughter of the late emperor!
Zhao Ning was furious: "You're looking for death!"
Feng Zizhou put his hands on his hips and laughed heartily: "Zhao Ning, what are you doing out here in the wilderness? Are you here to herd sheep? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, the princess actually let you out?"
Everyone knows that Zhao Ning is the eldest princess's only child, and she was raised in the palm of her hand and pampered.
Zhao Ning was already feeling aggrieved and angry, and now someone was looking for death. How could she not be reluctant to vent her anger? She immediately drew her long whip from her waist and swung it at Feng Zizhou.
She has only mediocre kung fu skills, and Feng Zizhou is not a playboy who knows nothing. He is not as good as others, but better than others. How could he be beaten?
So when he saw Zhao Ning about to swing at him, Feng Zizhou pretended not to notice and jumped back to avoid it at the critical moment.
But even if he didn't dodge, Zhao Ning couldn't hit her at all. The moment he swung the whip, his mother screamed, and before she could say anything to dissuade him, Zhao Ning fell to the ground in pain.
No matter how hard she tried to control herself, the pain in her feet came flooding back, and she couldn't stop crying.
This hurts too much.
"County Lady, is the County Lady okay?" Mom hurried forward, but couldn't help turning back and saying to Feng Zizhou, "Young Master, why would you bother provoking our County Lady at this time? The County Lady can't move forward if she's injured."
Originally, even if she was the county lord's aunt, she couldn't speak to Feng Zizhou like that.
But she was really too angry, and at the same time she also knew that Feng Zizhou was just like her county lady, all talk and no action.
Even if he was angry with his servants, he would just yell at them and scold them. He would basically not use violence, let alone take their lives.
"Ah?" Feng Zizhou was confused and hurried forward to ask with concern, "Zhao Ning is injured."
Although Zhao Ning was crying, it was because of the pain she couldn't help but feel, and she was still filled with anger. Hearing Feng Zizhou's gentle question, she didn't know why, but all the grievances in her heart came flooding back.
Her mother refused to follow her wishes and cancel the engagement. Prince Ning was not a normal person at all. How could she live in such a cold and icy state? The little sisters around her didn't know how to laugh at her behind her back.
Now Feng Zizhou also comes to bully her.
Why is she so pitiful?
"Wow, wow, wow..."
