Chapter 343 The Pearl of the Zhenbei King

"The officer is here!"

Xie Yuheng pulled Pei Xueyi out and introduced her loudly, "This is the Minister of Justice and the new Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice—Pei Xueyi, Lord Pei!"

At once, everyone looked over.

Many people recognized Pei Xueyi and greeted him, "Hello, Master Pei!"

"Master Pei, you should also come out to see the lantern festival!"

…

Pei Xueyi had an expressionless face and stared at Xie Yuheng coldly.

Xie Yuheng winked at him repeatedly.

This matter concerns His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we can’t make a big deal out of it and let it spread to the palace!

"Little girl, you want to report it to the police, right?"

Xie Yuheng waved his arm and said, "Come, take them all away!"

The maidservant was confused and tried to help her mistress up.

"Miss, please stop crying. Let's report him to the police!"

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Xiao Tangyue lifted up Duan Baozhu's other arm and said teasingly, "Master Pei will make the decision for you!"

"Wow...Okay." Duan Baozhu followed them with tears in her eyes, feeling aggrieved.

Avoid crowds.

They opened a large private room in a nearby teahouse.

Xiao Tangyue asked someone to buy clean clothes and asked Duan Baozhu to change her wet skirt and tidy it up before coming out to meet people.

During this time, Xiao Yundan also changed into new clothes.

All packed up,

Everyone took their seats.

Xie Yuheng took the initiative to ask: "Little girl, who are you from?"

Duan Baozhu was still wiping her tears when the maid jumped out first and said proudly and arrogantly: "My young lady is the apple of the eye of the King of Zhenbei!"

What?

The daughter of King Zhenbei!

Everyone in the room's expressions changed.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yundan looked at Duan Baozhu in astonishment and surprise: "Are you the King of Zhenbei, the one who requested the title of Princess?"

"Well, how did you know that?"

Duan Baozhu's voice was tearful, and she stared at Xiao Yundan with her red and swollen eyes, looking very aggrieved and disgusted with him.

Xiao Yundan's expression became complicated.

The Zhenbei King's family, young and old, are loyal to their father, and are feared throughout the northwest, with countless achievements!

After the old King of Zhenbei abdicated to recuperate, the new King of Zhenbei, Duan Hanshan, made great contributions in resisting foreign enemies as soon as he took office, and his father summoned him to the capital to be rewarded.

Unexpectedly, the Prince of Zhenbei did not want the reward himself, but asked for the title of Princess for his daughter.

Everyone in the court, civil and military officials, was shocked!

The King of Zhenbei is simply a daughter slave!

My father, the emperor, and my mother, the empress, agreed, and they just waited for an auspicious day to be chosen before sending the imperial edict and generous gifts to the Prince of Zhenbei's Palace.

Unexpectedly...

Xiao Yundan coughed awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."

"What's the point of you saying you didn't mean it now?"

Duan Baozhu felt wronged and extremely angry.

She pouted and complained, "Do you know that my skirt with the crabapple and golden butterflies embroidered with hundreds of flowers is my favorite one!"

"My hairpins and step-shakes were bought for me by my father at Golden Butterfly, but they're all lost..."

Duan Baozhu touched her bald head, tears falling like raindrops, and she cried sadly again.

She is so unlucky!

Xiao Yundan was annoyed: "Then you slapped me too."

Everyone: “Ah!!!”

Duan Baozhu is so brave!

He even dared to hit the crown prince!

Then I heard Duan Baozhu crying, "I can't swim, and you almost killed me... Woo woo!"

Everyone: “Hey——”

This cannot be blamed on Duan Baozhu.

Duan Baozhu seemed to be made of water, shedding endless tears, and her crying made people feel helpless.

Xiao Yundan knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his head and said, "I'll triple the price of the dress and jewelry. No! I'll pay you tenfold! Stop crying, okay?"

"I don't want you to pay me!"

Duan Baozhu's red eyes are like a rabbit's. When she glares at people, she looks cute and coquettish, without any killing power.

Xiao Yundan had a headache, "Then what do you want?"

“I, I…”

Duan Baozhu looked hesitant.

"Bang--"

The door was knocked open and King Zhenbei rushed over after hearing the news.

He rushed in angrily, and was immediately heartbroken when he saw Duan Baozhu.

"Zhuzhu!"

"My darling Zhuzhu, you scared me to death!"

King Zhenbei rushed over and hugged his daughter, touched her face, and wiped her tears. The iron man's eyes were red.

He pinched his throat and coaxed his daughter: "Zhuzhu, don't be afraid! Daddy will take care of it for you!"

"Who knocked you into the lake?"

"Dad skinned him!"

Xiao Yundan: "It's me."

"Good boy! You're brave!" King Zhenbei raised his fist and turned around to look for someone when he heard the sound.

He looked for people from left to right, wondering in his heart... Dali Temple Minister Pei Xueyi, Zhongshu Ling Xie Yuheng, Dingguo Hou General Yan Chen, why are they here?

Continue watching... Two young men are peeling melon seeds for the girl in the middle.

They seemed to be here just to join in the fun.

"Huh?"

King Zhenbei fixed his gaze on Xiao Tangyue's face, "She looks familiar."

"Uncle Duan, it's me! Yueyaer!"

Xiao Tangyue introduced herself with a smile.

When she was a child, she met her mother in the northwest, and she was the Prince of Zhenbei.

Prince Zhenbei suddenly realized and immediately put on a smile and clasped his fists: "It turned out to be the little princess! I haven't seen you for many years, you have grown up!"

"Little Princess, this is my precious daughter Zhuzhu. You didn't get to see her because she was ill that year."

"Zhuzhu, come and meet Her Royal Highness the Princess..."

The King of Zhenbei embraced his petite and lovely daughter and introduced people one by one.

Duan Baozhu was stunned.

There were still tears hanging on her eyelashes as she stared blankly at Xiao Tangyue. Is this the princess?

That princess used to call me brother...

"My poor Zhuzhu, she was so frightened that she couldn't speak."

The King of Zhenbei was a tough guy with a soft heart. He touched his daughter's face lovingly and apologized to Xiao Tangyue: "Your Highness, please forgive me. Please allow me to take care of my family affairs first!"

"Don't be afraid, Zhuzhu. Daddy has already sent people to surround this place. He can't escape!"

King Zhenbei thought that the last person must be the murderer who hurt his precious daughter!

He rubbed his hands together, and with a gloomy and ferocious expression, he finally turned around...

Facing Xiao Yundan's young and handsome face, the King of Zhenbei was in a trance for a moment, "Regent... Your Majesty? No! Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

The father and son look so much alike.

King Zhenbei's head was a little confused, and he turned around in a circle, "Zhuzhu, where is the person who bullied you?"

"It's me."

Xiao Yundan stood up and bowed, "Prince Zhenbei, please forgive me. I didn't mean to knock your daughter into the lake. I am willing to make amends until the princess is satisfied."

"I dare not! I dare not! Your Highness the Crown Prince is too polite..."

King Zhenbei subconsciously clasped his fists in return, but only reacted halfway through his words.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the bastard who bullied our precious daughter!

King Zhenbei's face turned ugly in an instant.

He is very angry!

But he was also wary and hesitant.

"Daddy." Duan Baozhu pulled the hand of the King of Zhenbei and cried softly, "My daughter wants to go home. Can we go home?"

"Zhuzhu..."

"Dad, I feel dizzy." Upon hearing this, King Zhenbei immediately ignored everything and rushed out with Duan Baozhu in his arms, feeling distressed and anxious.

Xiao Yundan was stunned. Just leaving like that?

Not going to settle accounts with him anymore?

Xiao Tangyue ate the melon seeds with a "crunch crunch" sound and said happily, "Brother, look how scared you are! Don't pack up and go back to the northwest overnight!"

"Yueyaer, are you embarrassed to laugh at me?"

Xiao Yundan glared at her with a gloomy expression, "I'll settle the score with you when I come back!"

After saying that, Xiao Yundan immediately chased after him...
