The Ninth Princess was furious!
She turned to seek justice from Emperor Ying Qian, but he was nowhere to be found, and then... she was scolded by the Empress.
"Your elder brother’s health is worsening, and your father has always favored the Fifth Prince. The Eastern Palace is struggling. Duke Shun Mansion is flourishing; who doesn’t want their support? Changyi, you must not cause more trouble!"
"If you disrupt the affairs of the Eastern Palace, see how I punish you!"
The Ninth Princess, Ying Changyi, had no choice but to accept her fate.
But the matter wasn’t settled.
Due to Xiao Huaian’s ’unintentional’ ntion and slip of the tongue, the Capital was abuzz with rumors that the Ninth Princess was spoiled and arrogant.
For instance, not giving face to General Wei, who had just returned from the battlefield and was still recuperating from injuries, by demanding Wei Zhao personally execute Fu ng over a small rabbit.
Moreover, Wei Zhao was disheartened, but the princess was noble, so he dared not disobey. But he couldn’t bear it, how could he bring himself to do it?
Such gossip made everyone half believe, half doubt.
The next day, however, Wei Zhao, bearing his injury,
Well, it wasn’t a very serious injury.
But after consuming an elixir crafted by Elder Ge, he felt particularly weak, panting heavily after just a few steps.
He entered Jinluan Hall during the morning court session, in front of civil and military officials.
Everyone was surprised by his arrival, but even more shocked and concerned about his injury.
Even Emperor Ying Qian was sowhat caught off guard.
Without warning, Wei Zhao fell to his knees with a thud.
"I am guilty."
"Please, Your Majesty, punish ."
Emperor Ying Qian glanced at Mr. Tu.
Mr. Tu understood imdiately and hurriedly stepped forward.
"General Wei, please rise. You are a hero of Da Jin. His Majesty cherishes you and has exempted you from morning court so you can rest at ho."
Wei Zhao did not rise.
"No."
"I offended the Ninth Princess, and I am truly terrified."
"Fu ng should never have angered the Ninth Princess. But it has followed for years, and I can’t bear to part with it. I find it unbearably shaful, hence my plea for forgiveness."
"I beg the Royal Family to spare its life, and if punishnt is due, let it fall upon ."
Wei Zhao loyally declared, "Anyway, I am already injured, and it wouldn’t matter if it worsened."
Wei Zhao convincingly spat blood, weakly saying, "I won’t die."
Indeed.
At that mont, he was truly infuriating.
Alright.
Nurous veteran ministers, led by the Grand Tutor, were outraged.
What’s wrong with eating a rabbit!
Fu ng is a fierce animal, how can you expect it to be vegetarian?
The princess should reflect; how did her rabbit end up wandering in front of Fu ng ti and again?
If it was offered up, would it not eat?
Court officials, led by the Fifth Prince Ying Yin, also criticized the princess, even suspecting the Ninth Princess had done it on purpose, just to give Duke Shun Mansion a hard ti.
After all, the Ninth Princess has a history of repeatedly troubling Duchess Shun before.
The Capital thrived on the excitent.
With soone backing Fu ng, it beca even more... unrestrained.
Yet it was displeased for not seeing Wei Zhao when it wanted to.
It began to hold a grudge, wanting to vent its anger on Wei Zhao.
But in doing so, it repeatedly got the short end of the stick with Yu Tingwan.
This human simply didn’t take it seriously!
This frustrated it imnsely.
Yu Tingwan said calmly to Rong Di, "Don’t let it cause trouble again."
With the White Tiger being so unruly, what if it tornted that child?
If it’s going to raise trouble, let it bother the one from the He Family who’s always crying.
After all... Yu Tingwan wasn’t a good person either.
Hearing this, Rong Di realized his cover was blown.
He was troubled, "Madam, it... it doesn’t listen to ."
However, he declared,
"I will try my best."
Yu Tingwan frowned, displeased with the address.
Just as she was about to ask Rong Di to change it, Fu ng approached, provoking, opening its bloody mouth to intimidate.
Being such a massive creature, Yu Tingwan instinctively retreated a few steps.
Fu ng was very proud.
This is how it should be!
It arrogantly raised its head.
Rong Di was quite troubled.
He felt that Yu Tingwan would be bullied to death in the future.
Rong Di felt at a loss.
On one hand was the tiger raised by the general himself.
On the other was the girl the general cared about.
"This..."
"It’s just playing with you."
Yu Tingwan: "Ha."
Rong Di: ...
The laughter seed sowhat perfunctory, even a tad sarcastic.
The girl was expressionless.
"It sure is fun to death."
Rong Di: ...
No wonder... no wonder Elder Ge said this pair was well-matched, both had temper and temperant.
He also ntioned that the general, ignoring those gentle and tender girls, insisted on finding soone even more troubleso than himself.
Elder Ge finally added.
Saying that there would be no peace in the Wei Family in the future, Fu ng’s obstinate days were numbered, because there was soone even more stubborn than it.
The first two, Rong Di agreed, but the last part he really didn’t believe.
A frail girl, who couldn’t hide fast enough when she saw the beast, could she really dominate it?
Was it possible Fu ng, with its irritable temperant, would just obey Yu Tingwan?
The girl had sothing on her mind, eager to return and discuss with Wei Zhao.
She was truly dissatisfied with the beheading of the He Family, which was too lenient.
One slash and the neck and head are separated. The pain only lasts a mont.
Too easy for them.
She wanted He Hong to suffer a thousand tis worse than Lady Xiao.
The girl had no ans, but Wei Zhao did.
The girl couldn’t enter the prison, but the Wei Family Army could.
She wasn’t familiar with Rong Di, and with Fu ng...
Well, she didn’t want to be familiar with Fu ng.
She turned and left.
Rong Di was at a loss, so he coaxed Fu ng back.
"Ancestor, Shunzi has already roasted the rabbit for you, let’s return. It won’t taste good if it’s cold."
Who wants to eat rabbit, it’s not the one raised by the Ninth Princess. Fu ng wasn’t interested.
Yet its excessive energy made it very restless.
It suddenly bolted to the entrance of a nearby shop, startling the people inside into shrieking.
Fu Hu tilted its head, finding these people inexplicable, then leisurely strolled back.
It suddenly barged into the courtyard of a nearby residence, helping dig a hole, scaring them into not daring to co out of their house.
But Fu ng went looking.
Because it brazenly wanted to ask for wages.
Rong Di couldn’t stop it, really couldn’t.
He could only apologize all the way, making ands as he went.
At this point, Fu ng strutted towards the left side of the street.
There was a fruit stall there.
The audacious Fu ng raised its paw, pointing at the most expensive fruits to the terrified vendor sitting on the ground.
The vendor only wished to quickly send off this great Buddha, hurriedly offering them with both hands.
But Fu ng was dissatisfied, very tough.
It also wanted that basket beside it!
Otherwise, what would it use to carry them?
"Roar!"
Then... thud.
Its head got smacked once.
Yu Tingwan didn’t even know when she had returned, stern-faced: "Can’t you keep quiet."
Fu ng: !!
Not painful, but very bewildering.
Truly, its brain couldn’t keep up, even incredulous.
Rong Di: ???
He was dumbfounded.
He really wanted to ask, do you know what you’re doing?
Yu Tingwan knew.
She was very clear-headed.
Gazing at the smoky and chaotic street wrought by Fu ng and the panicked crowd.
The girl looked deeply.
"Behave, or I’ll deal with you and your master together."
For letting the tiger beco this unruly!
And not controlling it!
Fu ng’s eyes widened.
Could there really be... such a thing?
