Xu Zhihuai's slap was full of power.
Her palms were burning and her fingers were trembling slightly. It's a pity that she can only give her this slap, Wei Li will not give her a second chance.
Sure enough, Wei Li's eyes changed, and the aura around him suddenly rose with murderous intent.
Zhu Weizhen was stunned at first, and then said: "Wei Li, don't do anything stupid!"
She was shocked by Xu Zhihuai's boldness, but she would not condone Wei Li's arrogance. If he dared to be disrespectful to Xu Zhihuai in front of her, he would be in big trouble today.
Xu Zhihuai still stood there, watching Wei Li chuckle and press his tongue against his cheek, with an expression that showed no pain or itch.
Yes, this little pain is nothing to him.
Wei Li spoke in a low voice: "It's been a long time since I last saw you. Your Majesty, I have gained a lot of strength and courage."
Xu Zhihuai smiled contemptuously: "This slap is for An'er. When you use a kitten to hurt An'er's heart, are you targeting Her Royal Highness the Princess or me?"
She asked with a cold voice, "Wei Li, why do people like you still live in the world?"
Wei Li laughed angrily: "Without people like me living in the world, how could I have such a peaceful life?"
He deliberately lowered his tone and took half a step towards Xu Zhihuai: "Your Majesty must have stayed in the palace for too long and forgotten the past."
He was threatening her, an honest threat.
Xu Zhihuai was not angered by his words, nor did she show any fear on her face. She opened her eyes wide and said in a more serious tone: "Wei Li, you are so pathetic. You have the ability to kill, but you have no ability to be a human being!"
It was a waste to wear this human skin for so many years.
Wei Li counterattacked coldly: "Your Majesty, you'd better keep your word, don't go back on your word, and resort to those despicable methods of the past. You can do whatever you want with a hook of your fingers."
His eyes were contemptuous and he spoke every word.
Zhu Weizhen couldn't listen anymore and felt that something was wrong with these two people.
Wei Li will go crazy, but he will not go crazy anytime and anywhere.
Xu Zhihuai is even more thoughtful. She has always tried hard to avoid getting involved with Wei Li, but today she has the courage to argue and resist him?
"Wei Li, you are an official of the imperial court, you should know how to do things properly."
Zhu Weizhen emphasized his tone, but Wei Li disagreed.
His eyes were always locked on Xu Zhihuai's body. He had not seen her covered in thorns for a long time.
Very fresh and interesting.
Zhu Weizhen came over and continued to say to Wei Li in a commanding tone: "You must admit your mistake today! If you can't control your subordinates, you are incompetent."
She gave Xu Zhihuai enough face and hoped that she would give up as soon as she got the chance. She also took Wei Li out and reminded him to find a "scapegoat" to settle the matter.
However, Zhu Weizhen overestimated Xu Zhihuai's cleverness and underestimated Wei Li's madness. Neither of them is ready to let the other go, even if they bring out all the shady past events, they will die together.
"Wei Li, how many more harm do you have to do before you are satisfied? Even if you kill everyone in the world, you will not become the prince! You will never be as good as him, and you will never be able to replace him."
Xu Zhihuai quietly said these words.
The expressions of Zhu Weizhen and Wei Li changed accordingly.
Zhu Weizhen's eyes widened slightly, shocked and surprised.
"Xu Zhihuai!"
He squeezed out her name through his teeth.
"Don't call me by my name, you don't deserve it."
There was silence in Xu Zhihuai's dark and translucent eyes, and his tone was unhurried: "You don't care about anything. Do you think everyone owes you, and the prince also owes you? You trampled and insulted me again and again, and you broke into pieces. I gave it to the prince. I didn’t understand why before? I understand now. Because you are ashamed of yourself and you can’t find the flaws in the prince, so you want to use me to disgust him and everyone. Look at what you have done. , look at how selfish you are, like a cowardly child with low self-esteem."
Like boiling water poured down from the head,
Wei Li suddenly blushed and became angry. He couldn't help but want to take action, but Zhu Weizhen would not give him a chance. The guards outside the palace stood ready and used countless sharp swords to warn: "Master Marquis, in front of the princess palace, please Respect yourself!"
It is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, let alone a real sword fight.
Wei Li's eyes were bloodshot with anger. He gasped and put down his hands, his large sleeves hiding his angry fists.
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Zhu Weizhen had to order Wei Li in a cold and ruthless tone: "If you dare to continue making trouble, I will kill you today!"
"Oh, I obey!"
Wei Li was extremely angry, with scarlet eyes, a strange smile, and a face full of madness.
He took a deep breath and glared at Xu Zhihuai with a dark look in his eyes, which made people shudder.
Wei Li left.
Zhu Weizhen looked at Xu Zhihuai, who was silent and silent, with a trace of anger flashing across his bright eyes: "Why do you want to make him angry? You are no match for him!"
Xu Zhihuai said calmly: "I can bear it no matter how he bullies me. But I can't bear it when he reaches out to An'er."
Zhu Weizhen sighed heavily: "He is a madman."
Xu Zhihuai lowered his eyes and asked: "Your Highness, as the saying goes, raising a tiger brings danger. Aren't you worried at all? A person like Wei Li is not worthy of being a pillar of the court. The more the prince relies on him, the more unbridled he will be. Sooner or later, he will be completely Losing your sanity as a human subject."
Having said that, she has nothing to be taboo about anymore.
Zhu Weizhen said sternly: "I know better than you who he is! I won't let that happen, absolutely not!"
Xu Zhihuai did not refute: "I just want to advise His Highness to be careful. He will never show his true face in front of His Highness, but I have seen it. I have seen the viciousness and filth under that human skin."
Zhu Weizhen hesitated to speak, looking at Xu Zhihuai with particularly complicated eyes.
She pondered for a long time and then said: "You were too impulsive today and lost your rules. In the next three months, I want you to be grounded and reflect, and you are not allowed to step out of the palace gate."
She seemed to be punishing her, but in fact she was reminding her not to leave the palace without permission recently, lest Wei Li's spy in the palace might secretly cause harm.
Xu Zhihuai nodded in agreement.
When she returned to the palace, she immediately looked at An'er.
In order to make her happy, Mu Xiuwan made her a cloth cat doll that looked similar to a kitten.
Zhu Qingruo was very happy. She held the doll and showed it to Xu Zhihuai: "Mother, my kitten is back."
Xu Zhihuai knelt down, opened his hands, held his daughter tightly in his arms, greedily smelled the faint fragrance on her body, then raised his eyes to look at Mu Xiuwan, and said thank you.
Mu Xiuwan said hurriedly: "Sister, you are too polite. As long as An'er is happy."
Xu Zhihuai blinked his eyes slightly, his long eyelashes cast a faint shadow, covering up his full melancholy, and murmured to himself: "Yes, as long as An'er is happy."
