CHAPTER 1145: CHAPTER 1124: ENRAGED

Manbao blinked, "What does it have to do with me? You are the ones fighting, not me."

Anyway, she wouldn’t fight with Commandery Princess Yunfeng, especially since this is at her grandmother’s house. It’s one thing to hit someone else’s granddaughter in their own house, and another when their status is higher than hers; she isn’t foolish.

Princess Changyu seriously looked at Manbao and said to Mingda, "I thought she was a bit silly, but it turns out that she’s actually clever, and bold too."

Mingda pursed his lips and smiled. If she weren’t bold, she wouldn’t have dared to take her cup and drink the wine for her. If not bold, she also wouldn’t have dared to smoothly take over Princess Changyu’s conversation, proposing tea instead of wine, outmaneuvering Li Yunfeng.

Li Yunfeng, isolated by the three of them, became even angrier and walked faster.

The three found a relatively spacious area in the garden and began to stand and wait.

Commandery Princess Yunfeng glared fiercely at Princess Changyu, who glared back just as fiercely.

When the Fifth Prince and Sixth Prince arrived with Yin Huo and Bai Erlang, they saw the two women glaring at each other like in a cockfight, while Manbao was discussing the flowers in the flowerbed with Mingda.

"There’s a flower here particularly fragrant," Mingda said, "It’s originally a wildflower; my mother liked its fragrance very much, so she had it planted here in the garden. It’s called Hosta."

Manbao said, "It has a pretty name."

Keke: "Not bad, I suggest the host records this."

Manbao, with sparkling eyes, looked at Mingda and asked, "Could you give me one?"

Mingda was stunned for a moment then smiled, "Of course, you can. If you like it, I’ll have the gardener dig up a couple for you."

Manbao’s eyes gleamed with delight and she proudly thought to Keke, "What else do you want? Note it down, and I’ll ask her for them later."

The system then began to ring incessantly, and all that was left in Manbao’s mind was Keke’s voice, "Reporting to the host, detecting plants fifty steps away to the left rear..."

Manbao’s eyes suddenly became empty, seeing her in a daze, Mingda reached out and touched her, "What’s wrong?"

Manbao shook her head blankly, "Nothing..." It’s just that she hadn’t expected there to be so many rare things here. Previously when she entered the palace, Keke didn’t make a single sound.

Hearing that in her mind Keke had already reported up to eight hundred sixty-seven steps away, she quickly stopped it mentally, "Okay, I got it. You’re not going to scan the entire flora and fauna of the palace, are you?"

Keke responded, "Correct."

Manbao then worriedly said, "The palace is only so big, why are there so many things here I haven’t recorded?"

After searching through the encyclopedia, Keke came up with an answer, "Because this is the concentration of your entire country’s wealth."

The Fifth Prince and the others came over, looked around at the four of them and asked, "What are you guys doing?"

Bai Erlang and Yin Huo came over to Manbao’s side after saluting them, Yin Huo just looked concerningly at Manbao, while Bai Erlang directly asked, "Are you alright?"

Manbao shook her head, "What could be wrong with me?"

Princess Changyu invited the Fifth Prince to bear witness for them, glanced at Li Yunfeng and said, "Everyone’s here voluntarily, don’t go crying and tattling to the Empress Dowager if you lose."

Li Yunfeng sneered, "Who will tattle is still undecided."

The Fifth Prince felt a headache coming on and asked, "Why do you want to fight? Today is the Empress Dowager’s birthday."

Princess Changyu immediately shifted the blame, pointing at Commandery Princess Yunfeng and said, "Ask her!"

Li Yunfeng was taken aback for a moment, then rolled her eyes, and instinctively looked towards Zhou Man, pointing at her and said, "She instigated it."

Manbao, who was eating melon seeds, instantly widened her eyes and pointed at herself looking at Li Yunfeng.

The Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince turned to look at Zhou Man, seeing her reaction and helplessly said to Li Yunfeng, "Yunfeng, she’s just a physician, why do you have to make it difficult for her?"

Li Yunfeng sneered, "You also said she’s just a physician, yet you and your siblings still made things difficult for my father because of her? My father is still your dear uncle."

Mingda’s smiling face fell, and with a stern face, he said, "So no matter whether this fight happens or not, cousin, do you have to involve her?"

Li Yunfeng then looked at Zhou Man with a smirk, slightly tilting her chin and said, "What will you do then?"

The Fifth Prince saw her bypass them and directly confront Zhou Man, feeling somewhat helpless.

This cousin of theirs, he didn’t know what she was thinking; on one hand, she looked down on Zhou Man, yet on the other, she demeaned herself by quibbling with her.

Manbao was also stunned for a moment, and after a long thought, she shook her head and said, "What can I do, you’re the Empress Dowager’s granddaughter. If you insist on framing me, what can I really do?"

She turned her head to Mingda and said, "Is it still possible for me to leave the palace now?"

Princess Changyu was furious and stepped forward, "Li Yunfeng, do you have no shame, we are still here."

Li Yunfeng glanced at her and said, "Do you want to defend a mere commoner in front of our great-grandmother?"

Princess Changyu and the Fifth and Sixth Princes remained silent, but Mingda stepped forward and said, "Right is right, wrong is wrong, cousin, how can you invert black and white?"

Li Yunfeng, having anticipated this, sneered, "Then tell me, will our great-grandmother believe you or me? Or even if she does believe you, do you think she would not punish Zhou Man?"

Mingda also got angry.

Yin Huo furrowed his brows.

Bai Erlang was so livid he burst out, speaking to Manbao, "I have never seen such a shameless person in my life, truly the daughter of the Prince of Yizhou."

As soon as these words came out, not only did Li Yunfeng react, but even the Fifth Prince and the others widened their eyes looking at Bai Erlang.

Li Yunfeng screamed in anger, pointing at Bai Erlang and furiously asked, "What do you mean by that? Say it again!"

Bai Erlang said, "I’ll say it again, I’m not afraid of you, I said you are shameless, just like your father!"

Li Yunfeng, enraged, raised her hand to slap, but Manbao quickly grabbed it, seriously saying, "Commandery Princess Yunfeng, you heard wrong, there’s no one here but me!"

Li Yunfeng hadn’t yet grasped the meaning of her words, struggled a bit to free her hand, only to realize that Manbao, who was younger and shorter than her, was surprisingly strong and she couldn’t break free.

Manbao had already turned her head to Mingda and Princess Changyu, "Princess, you say, isn’t it just the four of us here?"

Princess Changyu hadn’t caught on yet, but Mingda had already nodded vigorously, with a smile saying, "Yes, only the four of us."

Manbao then faced Li Yunfeng and addressed the Fifth and Sixth Princes, "Please, Your Highnesses, go elsewhere to admire the flowers; it’s as if you were never here."

It was only then that the Fifth Prince caught on, and Li Yunfeng also realized what was happening, she screamed in anger, "Zhou Man, how dare you deceive me!"

Manbao stared at her, gripping her hand forcibly, a fierce look in her eyes, she dragged Li Yunfeng close, staring into her eyes and pronounced each word distinctly, "Actually, there’s nothing wrong with those words, you and your father are indeed shameless."
