Chapter 862: Chapter 862: Phoenix Overseeing the Rivers and Mountains (4)
“Your Highness, these were left behind by the Third Highness.” Mu Mian ca in from outside, placing the things that Ning Yao left in order on the table beside Chuzheng.
“Throw them out,” Chuzheng said.
“Your Highness…” Mu Mian was puzzled, “Weren’t you and the Third Highness on good terms?”
Good?
Ning Yao was constantly around the original character.
On the surface, she solved problems for her, but in reality?
This little crow sister often set traps for her.
The original character was arrogant, but not a villain.
Whenever trouble occurred, it usually just annoyed people without causing significant harm.
But every ti after the original character left, Ning Yao would secretly bully those people in her na.
This led people to believe it was done by the original character, hating her to the core.
These were things Ning Yao had told her personally when the original character was on her deathbed.
The original character wanted revenge against no one but Ning Yao and her Empress mother.
If not for Ning Yao and the Empress, the original wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Wen Wu did try to advise her many tis.
But the original was ensnared in Ning Yao’s fabricated tale of ‘You are the Grand Imperial Princess, mother loves you the most, the world will be yours one day’ and didn’t heed Wen Wu’s words at all.
“That was before.” Chuzheng’s tone was indifferent, “Do as I say.”
The right now is no longer the from before.
The little crow sister still wants to fool ? No way!
Mu Mian muttered softly, “Yes, Your Highness. I understand.”
She snuck a glance at the person on the Empress Dowager’s Chair.
Your Highness has been… very strange lately.
Before, Your Highness was full of ideas and outgoing.
Not to say that the current Your Highness isn’t outgoing.
But there’s no expression on her face, her gaze is cold, and her whole deanor screams ‘Stay away from , don’t bother .’
Chuzheng fished out twenty taels of silver for Mu Mian, “Go buy so food.”
Mu Mian turned and quickly took it.
“Your Highness, what would you like, the Royal Kitchen…”
“Buy it outside,” Chuzheng decisively said, “Go.”
Mu Mian didn’t dare provoke Chuzheng, agreed, took the Palace Plaque, and left the palace to buy food.
–
[Congratulations, Miss, for completing the task. Twenty taels reward has been credited.] Glory Number sighed, [Miss is amazing.]
Chuzheng: “…”
Chuzheng ate the snacks Mu Mian brought back from outside.
After pondering for a mont, she began to coax Glory Number, “Don’t send tasks so often.”
[Why?]
“I’m injured and need to rest well. Shopping is physically exhausting and will worsen my injuries.”
[But your task is to be a spendthrift,] Glory Number said, [I can’t avoid sending them.]
“Send fewer tasks if you can. Do you want to see drop dead from exhaustion?”
Glory Number was silent for a while.
[All right, all right.]
–
Though Glory Number promised well, the next day Chuzheng received another shopping task.
[Sorry, sorry, Miss, I can’t avoid sending them.] Glory Number felt very aggrieved.
Chuzheng: “…”
Chuzheng was so angry that she kicked the table.
[…] Glory Number trembled with fear.
Why is Miss so fierce?
Whimper.
“Your Highness, you’re up…” Mu Mian was surprised Chuzheng got up so early today, “Where are you going, Your Highness?”
Chuzheng stord out, “Leaving the palace.”
“Ah?” Mu Mian quickly followed her, “So early, Your Highness, do you have sothing to do?”
It’s a big deal!
“Nothing.” Just going to squander so money.
Chuzheng strode out of Ziwei Palace.
There were people guarding outside the palace. Chuzheng had been recovering from the shock these past few days and hadn’t gone out, only hearing Mu Mian ntion it.
Seeing today, she was surprised by how many people there were.
Are they protecting or monitoring ?
Chuzheng wasn’t intimidated.
If you want to watch, go ahead and watch.
What difference will it make, what can they do to her?
An invincible life doesn’t require backing down.
Chuzheng swaggered out of the palace, and this news promptly reached the Empress’s ears, with Ning Yao and Wen Wu also receiving the news.
–
Chuzheng left the palace quite early, and the streets were still a bit deserted, but the shops were open.
Chuzheng took Mu Mian on a tour, buying a bunch of random things.
Mu Mian had soone send the items back to the palace first.
“Your Highness, why are we buying all this?”
“To squander.”
“?”
Is this a new hobby of Your Highness?
Mu Mian didn’t dare question, she could only follow Chuzheng.
Chuzheng hadn’t eaten when she ca out in the morning. After shopping for these things, it was almost noon.
Chuzheng planned to find a place to eat first.
As Chuzheng stepped in, a voice rang out just behind her.
“Isn’t this the Grand Imperial Princess?”
The restaurant instantly fell silent, as if soone had pressed a pause button.
A dozen pairs of eyes fixed intently on Chuzheng.
Chuzheng stood at the entrance.
The scene was a bit eerie.
Why are they looking at like that…
Chuzheng deliberated, “Have you never seen the Grand Imperial Princess?”
The people in the restaurant didn’t dare move.
The Grand Imperial Princess had died and co back to life, word of this had already spread outside.
In the past, this princess had done many outrageous things, and no one felt sorry when she died.
But…
She was alive again!
They hadn’t seen a Grand Imperial Princess die and co back to life before.
It was terrifying!
“Your Highness, let’s go upstairs.” Mu Mian was very perceptive.
After Chuzheng and Mu Mian went up, the breath of air below resud.
“Did you see that, it’s really the Grand Imperial Princess.”
“She really is still alive.”
“Do you think, how can soone be dead and co back to life? Isn’t this the kind of bizarre occurrence you read about in storybooks?”
“Everyone outside says she’s possessed by a ghost!”
“No way…”
“I feel like it’s creepy here.”
“Let’s go quickly, I don’t dare stay here any longer.”
–
Chuzheng sat by the window on the second floor, propping her chin up as she asked Mu Mian.
“Are they afraid of ?”
“Your Highness, there’s a rumor outside saying you’re…”
Mu Mian didn’t dare say it.
Chuzheng finished for her, “Possessed by a ghost?”
Mu Mian: “…” That wasn’t who said it.
Chuzheng: “There’s no such good ghost.”
Mu Mian: “??”
The shopkeeper was also quite scared, trembling as he served the table.
Chuzheng couldn’t be bothered to speak with him, adhered to the spendthrift principle of asking for the most expensive dishes, and told him to bring up all their signature dishes.
The shopkeeper: “…”
The shopkeeper obviously couldn’t say no, so he hurriedly went down to prepare.
Perhaps fearing to upset Chuzheng, the food ca up very quickly.
Mu Mian served on the side while Chuzheng ate slowly, occasionally glancing downstairs.
“Hey, Miss Lin, you can’t go up…”
The shopkeeper’s voice ca from the stairs.
“Why can’t I go up?” The girl’s voice followed closely, “Are you opening a restaurant or not, blocking custors? Do you still want to be in business? Move aside!”
“Miss Lin, you can’t go up!” The shopkeeper’s voice was anxious, “You… ouch…”
The noise was too loud.
Chuzheng looked toward the source of the sound.
A woman ca up from downstairs with a group, her eyes directly fixed on Chuzheng as she strode over.
“Isn’t this our Grand Imperial Princess.” Miss Lin’s tone was sarcastic, “I thought it was soone else.”
Chuzheng: “!!”
Coming for ?
I just want to have a al.
Is it really necessary!
