Runan Palace
"Bitch!"
The man's angry shouts came from the study, followed by the sound of porcelain falling to the floor.
"Your Majesty..." The princess walked into the room cautiously, looking timid, "Please be careful..."
King Runan's eyes were bloodshot, and there was a fierce look in his eyes. He looked at the mess on the ground and gritted his teeth and said, "Fang Xu... I will not be a human being until I kill you!"
When the princess saw the man getting angry, she shrank her neck and whispered, "She's just a woman. No matter how hard she tries, she can still fall to the sky. Why should the prince bother with her too much?"
"Just a woman?" King Runan sneered, his eyes falling on her, "You have never been in contact with her, yet you dare to despise her like this. If you face her another day, you will definitely fall behind."
"You don't know her nature." King Runan's right eyelid kept twitching, and he said solemnly, "That bitch is used to pretending, and she doesn't know which of her words is true and which is false. When she encounters a soft persimmon, she will His true nature has been exposed, and when he encounters a tough situation, he keeps a low profile, pretends to be obedient, and plays dirty tricks behind his back."
The princess paused for a moment and said half-believingly, "How could there be such a cunning and cunning person in the world?"
King Runan sat on the chair, lowered his head and pinched the bridge of his nose, and whispered, "Prepare some gifts, go to the door of Yongcheng Houfu, apologize to Mrs. Liu, and write a letter admitting your mistake, and hang it in Dongshi .”
The princess was stunned and asked, "Why...why is this?"
King Runan paused, as if he felt guilty, "Today I was defeated by Fang Xu. With so many people watching, I, as a man, cannot bow my head and admit my mistakes."
The princess came back to her senses, her eyes full of confusion, "So... the prince pushed me out?"
King Runan straightened his expression and said confidently, "You are a woman and my princess, so you should do something for your husband."
The princess opened her mouth, remained silent for a long time, and then whispered, "I understand."
"I'm just asking you to apologize and admit your mistake. Who can you show your sorrow for?" King Runan glanced at her and said in an unhappy tone, "It's just a case-by-case discussion. Go ahead and bow your head and apologize. I'm not asking you to kneel down. Nine knocks.”
The princess felt aggrieved, but she didn't dare to say a word.
She was married high and was accustomed to being cowardly. Her temper was tempered and she no longer had any temper.
"Your Majesty."
The atmosphere in the room was tense. The butler ran into the room with a nervous look on his face and said, "General Cen is here to visit."
King Runan's expression softened a little, and he waved his hand, "Please come in."
After finishing speaking, he looked back at the princess and said coldly, "Why don't you go and write a confession admitting your mistake?"
The princess pursed her lips and replied softly, "Yes."
After a while, the housekeeper came back and welcomed Cen Zhenjiang into the house with a smile.
"Your Majesty..."
The smile on Cen Zhenjiang's face froze, his eyes fell on the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and he whispered, "What happened?"
"You still have the nerve to say that?" King Runan looked at him coldly and said in a bad tone, "Did you know that Shen Ji and Fang Xu all sued me to the government?"
"Is this happening?"
Cen Zhenjiang pretended to be shocked, stepped forward quickly, and asked in a deep voice, "How did the prince escape?"
"Stop pretending to me." King Runan sneered, his eyes growing colder, "How could you not hear about this? I won't cause trouble for you, so why bother?"
Cen Zhenjiang looked embarrassed and smiled awkwardly, "I can't hide anything from the prince."
King Runan gritted his teeth, with hatred on his face, and said in a deep voice, "They joined forces. The woman caused me to lose face, and the man caused me to lose my business. I am afraid that even the emperor will criticize me."
King Runan was so angry that he slammed the tea cup on his hand to the ground, "What two scourges!"
Cen Zhenjiang sighed, trying to arouse King Runan's anger inside and outside his words, "The two of them cooperated skillfully and used the emperor to suppress you. Even if Magistrate Liu wanted to protect you, he had to follow their wishes." .”
King Runan sneered, his eyes full of dissatisfaction, "When we take over that mountain, who will be sitting on it? Isn't it up to us to decide?"
Seeing that he took the bait, Cen Zhenjiang suppressed the joy in his heart and followed his words and said, "What the prince said is true. Everything from now on will have to rely on you."
King Runan raised the corners of his lips and whispered, "Now that things have happened, I have suffered heavy losses and lost the heart of the king. I can only fight against the odds and put all my thoughts on that mountain."
Cen Zhenjiang nodded and whispered, "Your Majesty must send more manpower to speed up the digging of the mountain so that we can complete our great project as soon as possible."
King Runan snorted lightly, "I know it well."

Yongcheng Houfu
Yunyuan
Zhutao stood at the back, stroking the eyebrows and makeup of the woman in front of the bronze mirror, and asked with a smile, "Miss, you are dressed grandly today, but you have an appointment with Mr. Lien?"
"I heard that the plum blossoms beside Qinxin Lake are really beautiful. I went with him to have a look." Xie Wanzhou said softly with a smile on her face, straightening the jade hairpin on her bun.
"My servant is very happy to see that the young lady and Mr. Lian have a good relationship." Zhu Tao smoothed the wrinkles on her clothes and whispered, "Miss..."
"Miss."
The sudden sound startled both of them. Xie Wanzhou trembled and quickly looked back.
There was a woman standing next to the originally empty tea table. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was dressed in black and the lower half of her face was covered tightly.
Seeing the person coming, Zhutao took a long breath, kept patting his heart, and said angrily, "Hongye, how many times have I told you, don't pop out every now and then, it's very scary!"
Hongye's expression did not change, his eyes were still cold, and his voice did not fluctuate at all, "I am here to protect the young lady on the order of the Crown Prince's wife. If anything unusual happens, I will naturally show up."
Xie Wanzhou sighed softly, smiled helplessly, and his eyes fell on her, "You came out suddenly, but what did you notice?"
Hongye nodded slowly, like a machine, "There is someone outside the side door. Sometimes he stops and sometimes wanders. He must be someone with good kung fu. I didn't hear the sound of his heels hitting the ground. I guess he is very good at light kung fu."
Xie Wanzhou paused, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "If someone competes with you, who is stronger or weaker?"
Hongye was puzzled, tilted his head, and said coldly, "My subordinate can be sent by the Crown Prince's wife to protect the young lady. Naturally, he is extraordinary."
"Ordinary people are not worthy to be compared with my subordinates."
Hearing this, Xie Wanzhou's mental arithmetic dropped, and he smiled gently, "In that case, there is nothing to be afraid of."
"I have known that person's thoughts in advance, and with Lian Yan and Hong Ye here, who can hurt me?" Break the troops."
Seeing the young lady like this, Zhutao couldn't help but shudder.
That man was really unlucky. It was not a good day to choose, but he chose today when even the young master was here.
It seems... there is something good to watch.
