Chapter 657: Being Princess Jin is Not That Easy

Xianglan smiled faintly and said, "Princess Shihan, you may not know that any woman who marries into the royal family must be taught the rules and regulations by the palace's etiquette nanny three months before her wedding.

After all, the royal family is special, and as a princess, the responsibilities on your shoulders are even greater."

Zhuang Shihan muttered, "Marrying someone is so troublesome. There are so many messed up rules to learn."

Xianglan smiled politely and explained, "Princess Shihan, don't worry, this is a rule unique to the royal family.

You are going to marry into the general's mansion and become his wife, so you don't need to learn."

Her attitude was polite and her tone could even be described as gentle, but it sounded harsh to Zhuang Shihan's ears.

What's wrong with marrying into the general's mansion?

Even though Lin Tingfeng is not as good as Mo Jinchuan now, if he is given some more time, with her assistance, it is only a matter of time before he is granted a title of nobility and appointed as prime minister.

At that time, the best outcome for Mo Jinchuan, a prince who failed in his fight for the throne, would be life imprisonment in the palace.

As his princess consort, Song Yanxi naturally followed his lead and was placed under house arrest with him until her death.

What are they so proud of!

And this lowly maidservant, relying on the fact that she serves the Queen, thinks she is superior to others and looks down on others.

She is just a servant, who does she think she is?

Zhuang Shihan became increasingly angry as she thought about it. She gritted her teeth and asked, "So you're saying that Song Yanxi has to learn the rules of the palace for a full three months?"

Chun Xing said, "With Princess Yong'an's intelligence, I don't think it will take more than three months."

Understanding her words, Zhuang Shihan suppressed a smile and asked, "If she can't learn, will she be detained in the palace forever?"

Chun Xing looked at Song Yanxi embarrassedly and said nothing.

Zhuang Shihan had already gotten the answer from her expression.

She looked at Song Yanxi and said with a mocking look in her eyes, "The door of the palace is really not that easy to enter."

Song Yanxi smiled faintly in response, "The General's Mansion doesn't have so many complicated rules. I think Princess Shihan will feel more at ease if she marries there."

Zhuang Shihan's eyelids twitched, and she forced a smile and said, "I'll lend you my good wishes."

Glancing at Mo Jinchuan beside her, she said quietly, "His Royal Highness Prince Jin likes you so much just for him, so I think you will definitely learn the rules well.

After all, being Princess Jin isn't that easy."

When Zhuang Shihan thought of the bloodless torture methods used by the old women in the palace, she almost laughed out loud with joy.

Finally, there is someone who can help her treat Song Yanxi.

Zhuang Shihan raised the corners of her mouth and said sincerely, "I'll be waiting for you outside the palace. Once you've learned the rules, let me see what a dignified Princess Jin looks like."

As she said this, she turned around and was about to leave, but Dehai stopped her.

"Princess, wait a minute."

De Hai looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground with a sullen face and said, "The princess hasn't told me yet why she brought this poison with her when she came to the palace to seek an audience with His Majesty."

Zhuang Shihan blurted out, "What poison? This is just medicine that makes people itch. It's not poisonous at all."

As soon as she finished speaking, she wanted to bite off her tongue.

Damn it, I spoke the truth out loud in a moment of haste.

Seeing the murderous intent in Dehai's eyes, Zhuang Shihan hurriedly explained, "I carry this medicine with me for self-protection. I have absolutely no intention of harming Your Majesty."

Knowing that if she couldn't explain it clearly, there would be endless trouble, she gritted her teeth and said, "Someone has been following me recently, and I had no choice but to bring it with me for self-defense."

She looked at Song Yanxi and said anxiously, "Since you know about itching powder, you must know that it won't kill people. At most, it will just make people's skin itchy for a few days."

Hearing her speak so lightly, Song Yanxi knew that today was definitely not the first time she used this kind of medicine to teach someone a lesson.

Even, take pleasure in it.

As for what would happen to the Chinese medicine people, she didn't care at all.

Thinking about her attitude just now, Song Yanxi asked coldly: "Princess Shihan has no intention of harming anyone, so what did she want to do by taking out the medicine just now?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Zhuang Shihan.

Yes, it was normal for her to carry medicine powder for self-defense, but how would she have the chance to use it at the heavily guarded palace gate?

No matter how arrogant a person is, he would never dare to follow her here.

She took out the medicine, who was she going to use it on?

Commander Liang's face suddenly darkened, and his fists at his sides clenched with a crackling sound.

Zhuang Shihan felt her scalp tingle when she heard the noise, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Eunuch De, you saw it with your own eyes, what their attitudes were.

You are so indifferent and don't even take me seriously."

As she was speaking, she suddenly had an idea and said with a cold face: "After all, I am also a princess appointed by His Majesty himself. They are so arrogant, do they still have His Majesty in their eyes?"

Commander Liang's face darkened even further. Just as he was about to explain, De Hai asked in a cold voice, "Princess Shihan, please tell me why they don't take you seriously?"

He forced a smile and said quietly, "Princess, please explain it clearly to me so that I can report back to His Majesty."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Shihan's heart skipped a beat.

What does this old guy mean by suddenly bringing up Emperor Xuande? Could it be that he wants to stand up for these imperial guards?

What? After serving Emperor Xuande for so long, do you think you are a big shot too?

He is just a eunuch, not even a man, but he thinks he is a big shot when he speaks.

It's just funny.

Zhuang Shihan couldn't help but sneer, and said with contempt, "Eunuch De clearly saw it with his own eyes, so why is he pretending to be ignorant?"

De Hai said with a forced smile, "My Lord, your words have really confused this old servant."

He looked at Commander Liang and asked coldly, "Commander Liang, how did you disrespect Princess Shihan just now?"

Commander Liang said with a cold face: "Liang is upright and has never done anything wrong."

Zhuang Shihan frowned and said, "Why are you pretending? Just before Eunuch De came, you were not like this now."

Commander Liang asked in return, "Princess, please tell me, what exactly did I do just now?"

He was just pretending to be deaf and dumb and ignored Zhuang Shihan's almost rude requests. It was not a mistake at all.

If he had to be wrong, it would be a real violation of the rules if he served him according to what Zhuang Shihan said.

It would be a real joke for the Right Commander of the Imperial Guard to allow her to order him around like a servant just because he was afraid of power.

How could Zhuang Shihan not know this?

She glared at Commander Liang, her face flushed red.

De Hai knew what was going on as soon as he saw her expression. He asked with a serious face, "Princess Shi Han, don't you know what to say?"

Zhuang Shihan gritted her teeth, a little angrily saying, "He's disrespectful to me, so why shouldn't I teach him a lesson?"

"Of course not."

Two voices sounded at the same time.

Mo Jinchuan said with a sullen face, "The Imperial Guards are directly under the control of the Emperor, and are not under the jurisdiction of anyone else.

Even if there is a mistake, the emperor has full authority to deal with it.

Even I, the king, have no right to teach you a lesson."

Facing Zhuang Shihan's ugly eyes, he curled the corners of his lips and asked sarcastically, "Who gave Princess Shihan the qualifications to teach my father a lesson?"
