Chapter 27 The Upbringing of a Noblewoman

Yan Li led Nanny An through the courtyard gate, walked through the garden, and walked towards the lakeside flower hall. The four Nannies who were blocking the door watched helplessly but did not dare to stop them.

Although Yan Li arrived quite early, there were obviously several women from aristocratic families in the flower hall who arrived earlier than her. Everyone was drinking tea and chatting, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed and harmonious.

When Yan Li walked onto the veranda, the noble ladies who had already sat down in the flower hall stood up one after another and saluted Yan Li in a scattered manner, "See Princess Nanyang."

Everyone saluted perfunctorily, and their unwilling attitude could be seen at a glance.

Yan Li did not care, walked over and found a place to sit down casually, and her voice was as cold as snow: "No need to be polite, sit down."

The women following her found a seat and sat down without saying a word.

"Princess Nanyang is so lucky." A girl in yellow said sarcastically, "She is an orphan and is named a princess. Looking at the world, there is no one like her before and after. Princess Nanyang is truly the first one."

The girl in a cherry red dress sitting next to her said maliciously, "Congratulations to Princess Nanyang for being favored by the emperor. Even the concubines and the princesses in the harem are outshined."

Yan Li looked up at the two girls who were talking and said indifferently, "What are your names?"

The noble ladies present should be of high status, but Yan Li had always lived in seclusion and did not know these women. Of course, they were not familiar with Yan Li either. Under normal circumstances, with their family background and status, they would not even have any intersection with a cousin.

If she had not been named a princess and had a relationship with the Ninth Prince, Gu Anxian would still not have taken the initiative to post an invitation.

When she asked this question, the girl in yellow and the girl in cherry red dress were both stunned: "You..."

"I asked you what your names are." Yan Li frowned, "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

The girl in yellow was furious: "How dare you scold me?"

The woman sitting in the main seat was Gu Anxian, who said lightly: "One of them is Princess Mu Yun of Prince Xian's Mansion, and the other is Miss Li of the Minister of Personnel's Mansion. I wonder if Princess Nanyang has any advice?"

"No advice." Yan Li said indifferently, "I just want to know where such uneducated women come from. Remember to avoid them when you pass by her mansion in the future."

When these words came out, the women present were all stunned. Obviously, they didn't expect her to be so bold as to scold Princess Mu Yun for being uneducated?

Mu Yun was so angry that her face turned blue. She stood up suddenly: "Yan Li, you are so brave!"

Gu Anxian frowned and looked at Yan Li's stunning face calmly. Before today, she had never known that the cousin of the Jiang family was such a beautiful girl. She was so beautiful that people wanted to scratch her face.

"I'm really brave." Yan Li raised her eyebrows slightly, "Not only am I brave, but I'm also lucky. After all, an orphan girl can fly up to the high ground. Don't you think it's angry?"

"How shameless!" Mu Yun gritted his teeth and sneered, "It's a pity that fake is fake. Even if you fly up to the high ground, it's still fake."

"That's right, you dare to be complacent after getting the title of a fake princess. I really don't know where Miss Yan gets her sense of superiority."

"Miss Yan should have some self-knowledge." A woman in apricot clothes next to her spoke with a look of contempt and disdain, "We don't care about you being named a princess. After all, it is the grace of the emperor, but as a cousin of the Taifu Mansion, you dare to covet the Ninth Prince without knowing your own limitations. Don't you think it's ridiculous? Have you looked in the mirror? Do you know that you are not even worthy of washing the feet of the Ninth Prince?"

An Ma's face was angry, and she was about to scold, but she heard Yan Li sneer coldly.

"Not even worthy of washing feet?" Yan Li raised an eyebrow, "So, you have washed the feet of the Ninth Prince?"

"You——"

"Or do you particularly like to wash people's feet?" Yan Li sneered coldly, "It seems that you were born as a foot-washing maid, no wonder you speak so harshly."

"You!" The girl in apricot clothes slammed the table and stood up, her face almost twisted with anger, "Yan Li, you dare to insult me?!"

"It's obviously you who humiliated yourself, don't throw dirty water on me." Yan Li's attitude was indifferent, and he didn't buy her tricks at all, "But your love of washing feet is your business, it has nothing to do with me, don't think that everyone is the same as you."

She kept saying "love to wash feet", which only made the girl in apricot clothes lose her composure, and her expression was almost distorted: "Shut up! You shut up!"

Gu Anxian listened to Yan Li's ruthless counterattack, frowned and said: "Why is Princess Nanyang so vulgar?"

"Vulgar?" Yan Li smiled faintly, his expression was always calm, "Miss Gu means If someone scolds you, you will not fight back, but will smile and thank the other person for scolding you? "

"I..."

"Then if I call you a foot-washing maid, will you thank me for thinking so highly of you?"

Gu Anxian's face quickly flushed: "Yan Li."

"Please introduce the women here to me, Miss Gu." Yan Li looked calm, and her tone revealed a natural demeanor, "I don't go out often, and I don't know anyone here. Facing so much malice, I don't know what to call when I fight back."

"As an orphan of the Jiang family, you are naturally not qualified to know us." The apricot-dressed woman sneered coldly, "If the emperor didn't feel sorry for you and made you a princess, do you think you are qualified to be here?"

Yan Li turned his head: "Madame An."

Madame An knelt: "Your Highness the Princess."

Yan Li calmly ordered: "This girl has been disrespectful to me again and again, you go and teach her the rules."

"yes."

Aunt An walked up to the woman in apricot clothes, raised her hand and slapped her face: "Kneel down! Apologize to Her Highness the Princess."

The woman in apricot clothes was stunned by the slap and covered her face in disbelief: "You...you dare to hit me? How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am?"

The other women also changed their expressions and looked at Yan Li involuntarily.

"No matter who you are, if you dare to despise the imperial power, you should be taught a lesson." Yan Li said with a cold expression, "If you are not convinced, you can go to the palace and file a complaint."

Gu Anxian reminded coldly: "She is Mu Ya, the princess of Prince Yu's Mansion."

Yan Li raised his eyebrows: "Who is better, the princess or the princess?"

"Of course it's the princess." Aunt An looked at the woman in apricot clothes coldly, "Please ask the princess to go over and apologize to Princess Nanyang."

"Absolutely impossible!" Mu Ya looked at Yan Li fiercely, her voice full of vicious curses, "Yan Li, just wait for me, I will definitely let you die without a burial place!"

After saying this, she turned and left: "Let's go!"

Several maids hurriedly followed her and disappeared in a short while.
