Xu Jiaowei glanced at the person running over, her willow brows furrowed slightly, but she bowed out of courtesy: "Princess."
Zhu Dongfeng hadn’t expected Princess Changhuan to appear suddenly and was taken aback, quickly bowing his head to greet: "Princess."
Father Zhu had instructed him to enter the palace to see Princess Changhuan, but Yin Shen did not allow it.
He stated that Princess Changhuan was frightened and needed so quiet ti to recuperate.
Naturally, Zhu Dongfeng did not get to see Princess Changhuan.
Unexpectedly, they t at this mont...
Princess Changhuan rely glanced at Zhu Dongfeng before quickly averting her gaze.
"What are you doing!" Princess Changhuan pointed to the person held down by Xu Jiaowei’s maid: "Release her."
Xu Jiaowei sneered quickly, and the atmosphere suddenly stiffened: "Princess, what’s wrong with disciplining soone who collided with ?"
Xu Jiaowei’s tone held little respect for Princess Changhuan.
Both born as daughters of great families, these two never got along since childhood.
Princess Changhuan was furious: "What did she do to you? For years you’ve been cruel; you haven’t changed!"
Xu Jiaowei stood up herself: "Princess, if you’re here to preach, spare . It’s not the princess’s place to manage what I do."
Although Princess Changhuan outranked her, Xu Jiaowei wasn’t very afraid of her because of Prince Jinan.
Even if sothing happens, at most it would be a few words of reprimand or so confinent.
With her father to protect her, Your Majesty wouldn’t really punish her heavily.
Therefore, to Xu Jiaowei, Princess Changhuan was just bluster, appearing fierce but utterly ineffective.
"You..."
Princess Changhuan was so angry her chest heaved, her small face turning red.
Princess Changhuan gathered her anger and shouted: "Release her, by the order of this Princess!"
Princess Changhuan used a commanding tone.
Xu Jiaowei said, "Princess, she dirtied my clothes, shouldn’t I punish her?"
Princess Changhuan looked at her angrily: "You want to strip her on the street; you would ruin her life."
The girl did bump into her first, and Xu Jiaowei might receive no intervention if she smacked her twice to vent.
But she intended to strip the girl in front of so many people.
Xu Jiaowei’s actions were extrely cruel.
She simply didn’t want the girl to continue living.
Xu Jiaowei showed no concern: "Heh, just a re commoner, Princess, why lower your status?"
Princess Changhuan felt she had no common ground with Xu Jiaowei and moved to push away Xu Jiaowei’s two maids.
The two maids dared not fight Princess Changhuan.
Princess Changhuan supported the girl upright, not speaking soft words, only stiffly asking: "Are you okay?"
The girl’s face was pale, shaking her head: "No... no..."
"Let’s go."
Princess Changhuan signaled her to leave quickly.
The girl was sowhat frightened.
Xu Jiaowei snorted coquettishly, not seeming very angry, but her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of sinister light.
The girl swallowed her saliva, her survival instinct prompting her to quickly leave this place of trouble.
Xu Jiaowei curled her lips in a smile: "Princess, I haven’t had a good chat since returning, care for a talk?"
"No ti." Princess Changhuan turned to leave.
Xu Jiaowei reached out to block her: "Princess, we haven’t seen each other for a long ti."
"I don’t want to see you." Princess Changhuan glared at her: "Move aside!"
Xu Jiaowei was sowhat asured; despite everything, Princess Changhuan outranked her. She did not dare to truly prevent her from leaving.
However, as Princess Changhuan left, Xu Jiaowei suddenly reached out towards her shoulder.
Seeing the hand almost fall on Princess Changhuan’s shoulder, Xu Jiaowei’s wrist suddenly chilled, followed by a snapping sound.
Xu Jiaowei’s scream arose.
Princess Changhuan was startled, turning to see Xu Jiaowei in an awkward position, her face changing drastically.
"Sister!" Princess Changhuan’s eyes lit up.
Xu Jiaowei felt her hand was about to break, body twisted in a strange posture.
The girl gripping Xu Jiaowei showed a cold indifference in her exquisitely beautiful features, one hand behind her back, the other casually pressing Xu Jiaowei’s wrist, embodying elegance.
"Who... who are you!" Xu Jiaowei roared, attempting to shake her hand free.
Unfortunately, the grip was so strong that apart from pain, there was no other response.
"Lord Zhu, what are you doing! Get her off!" Xu Jiaowei yelled at soone nearby.
Within a few seconds, Zhu Dongfeng regained composure and promptly stepped forward.
Chuzheng was faster, twisting Xu Jiaowei’s wrist in another direction, a glimr flashed in Princess Changhuan’s eyes.
Princess Changhuan frowned, looking at Xu Jiaowei’s hand.
Zhu Dongfeng paused.
In Xu Jiaowei’s palm, a thin silver needle glistened, invisible without careful observation.
Princess Changhuan’s eyes widened, looking at Xu Jiaowei in shock.
Had that hit her shoulder earlier, this needle would have pierced her flesh?
Xu Jiaowei wanted to discard the needle, but her fingers wouldn’t obey.
Now exposed, Xu Jiaowei’s face darkened, furiously glaring at the one who ruined her plan.
Had she not suddenly appeared and grabbed her, none of this would have happened.
Facing Xu Jiaowei’s lethal glare, Chuzheng emotionlessly extracted the silver needle.
The needle seed coated with poison, its sheen abnormal.
Chuzheng handed the needle to Princess Changhuan: "There might be sothing on this, have soone inspect it."
Princess Changhuan was trembling with rage, her eyes glaring at Xu Jiaowei: "Xu Jiaowei, you’re incredible!"
Regardless of what the needle was, attempting to harm her as a princess caught red-handed, Xu Jiaowei wouldn’t escape easily this ti.
-
Princess Changhuan intended to bring Xu Jiaowei into the palace to deal with the matter, inviting Chuzheng as a witness, being an involved party.
Of course, Princess Changhuan planned to complain to the Emperor.
Although the Emperor has been indulgent and reluctant to see ministers, as of late,
He wouldn’t ignore a request from his daughter.
Princess Changhuan started with a crying complaint, startling even Chuzheng.
She felt... Princess Changhuan wasn’t supposed to act this way, right?
Why the sudden change?
[Little Sister, cry when you need to. Rember, a crying child gets candy.] King’s Account online guidance.
Chuzheng’s heart was quite indifferent: I don’t care for candy.
[...] If you say so, there’s nothing I can do.
Princess Changhuan promptly called for the Imperial Physician to inspect the silver needle.
Xu Jiaowei initially panicked but quickly cald down, firmly claiming it was just a joke, and the needle carried no poison.
Sure enough, the Imperial Physician soon provided results.
The needle contained a substance that causes itchiness for two hours, with no toxicity.
