Chapter 100 If You Can Unlock the Nine Links, I Will Apologize

"What? This princess doesn't even like you!"

Fu Ping looked at Su Xin and angrily scolded her. He originally wanted to make Su Yue drink the pot, but why was her sister so stupid and rushed to block it for Su Yue?

What a brainless idiot!

After being scolded by Fu Ping, Su Xin didn't know what to say for a moment, and the situation became awkward.

"My Lady, Miss Su wants to be released, but you won't help her? Or have you already set your sights on Su Yue?

For something this difficult to solve, you chose Yue'er. People who don't know would think you dislike her. ”

Seeing that Fuping had no intention of letting Su Xin solve the problem, Chen Wanwan started to act sarcastic.

Chu Ziyi, who was standing by, heard that his fiancée dared to speak to the princess in such a sarcastic tone, so he hurriedly approached Wanwan, pulled her with his hand, and signaled her to be careful with her words.

Chen Wanwan glanced at Chu Ziyi and said in a voice that the two of them could hear: "Brother Ziyi, I know what's going on."

Li Yan saw the intimate interaction between the two and her beautiful eyes became gloomy.

"Hahaha... Miss Chen is wrong. This princess just thinks that Miss Su is smart and can help me. Since Miss Su wants to solve the problem, let her do it. However..."

When Fuping heard what Chen Wanwan said, he naturally knew that Chen Wanwan was on Su Yue's side.

She dared to target Su Yue obviously because she knew that Prime Minister Su did not love Su Yue that much, otherwise he would not have abandoned her in the countryside for five years.

But Chen Wanwan is different. She is the apple of the Taiwei's eye. It is not a wise move to offend Chen Wanwan.

"Princess, but what?" Su Xin was also anxious. She just wanted to show her intelligence to the two princes, but she didn't expect that there was a set time limit.

"But if you don't untie it within a cup of tea, I will write the word 'stupid' on your face, and I order you not to wipe it off all night long!"

Princess Fuping rolled her eyes and made such a request. After all, even if she was a concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, any more severe punishment would not be justified.

Princess Fuping was very satisfied with this kind of punishment which was neither painful nor irritating but extremely humiliating.

It is also said that the eldest daughter of the Su family is very arrogant and proud, and relies on her beautiful appearance. She has already reached the age of 15, but she is not satisfied with any of the families that have been looked for for her, which is why she has not yet married.

Seeing that she was following Shangguan Nanfeng, she probably had feelings for him. She was just a concubine's daughter, but she actually coveted the position of the prince's consort. She didn't mind humiliating her.

"This..." At this moment, Su Xin hated herself for speaking too quickly and now she was in such an difficult situation.

The only option now is to burn our boats and see if we can untie the nine rings.

"Here, this is it. It'll take a cup of tea." Princess Fuping took the Nine Rings from the stall owner and threw it into Su Xin's arms.

When the stall owner saw that the troublesome girl was pointing her finger at someone else, he was naturally happy to hand over the Nine Rings.

"Then I'll try it." Su Xin took the nine-ring chain, gritted her teeth secretly, time was urgent, and her fingers moved up and down quickly.

The people present watched Su Xin untie the ring, and there was a glimmer of interest in everyone's eyes.

Su Xin was seen fumbling with the nine rings that were fastened to the handle and the copper rod. She was about to take off the first one, but the second one followed closely behind.

He wanted to solve the second one, and then the third one came. It was one thing after another and there was no way to solve them. Su Xin went from being dismissive at the beginning to being so nervous now that sweat broke out on his forehead.

A cup of tea passed in the blink of an eye, and Su Xin hadn't even solved one ring, let alone nine.

"The time is up. If you don't untie it, you will be punished."

Fuping looked at Su Xin with an expression that said, "I know you can't solve it."

"Princess, can you not give up this punishment?"

Su Xin's tone was pleading. She usually cared the most about her face. This time, she dressed up carefully for a date with the Second Prince. This really made the word "stupid" look on her face. How could she have the face to see people?

"Oh, once this princess has spoken, it is hard to go back on my words. How dare you, a mere concubine, try to influence my thoughts?"

Fu Ping's face darkened. How could anyone dare to look down upon his position as a princess? Even this concubine's daughter dared to negotiate with him?

When Li Yan, who was standing next to her, heard the word "concubine's daughter", her face turned grim. In her life, she hated being mentioned as a concubine's daughter the most. This identity was an obstacle for her to become powerful!

"Princess, that's not true. I was thinking that my sister is much smarter than me. She predicted the cold a while ago and helped the emperor relieve his worries. With such a smart mind, she will definitely be able to solve the Nine Links."

When Su Xin heard what Princess Fuping said, she knew that she was doomed to be embarrassed today, but she was unwilling to accept it. Even if she was embarrassed, she would drag Su Yue with her!

Besides, he was not blind and could see the hostility of Princess Fuping towards Su Yue. His proposal would definitely win the princess's favor.

"What you said does make some sense."

Princess Fuping looked at Su Xin with her beautiful eyes. Su Xin was not stupid at all. She liked what Su Xin said very much.

"Are you mentally ill? You can't untie the knot yourself, so you drag your sister into the water?" Chen Wanwan was so angry when she heard what Su Xin said that she started to curse.

"Wanwan!" Chu Ziyi heard Chen Wanwan swearing and spoke out to stop her, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

His fiancée is good in every way except that she has a bad temper, especially when it comes to not touching her own people.

It was obvious that Chen Wanwan had completely regarded Su Yue as a sister from another family.

"Miss Wanwan is just anxious for a moment, Brother Ziyi, don't worry too much."

Li Yan waited until now, and finally saw Chen Wanwan get angry. He immediately walked forward and tried to comfort Chu Ziyi.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you call Ziyi brother like me?"

When Chen Wanwan saw Li Yan approaching her fiancé, she became even angrier and started cursing.

Li Yan's eyes turned red when he was scolded, and he lowered his head, looking like he had done something wrong, which made people feel particularly pity for him.

“Wanwan! Can you stop throwing a tantrum? Apologize to Miss Li!” Chu Ziyi’s tone turned bad when he saw his fiancée scolding others and making them cry.

"You..." Chen Wanwan was about to say something, but Su Yue interrupted her and walked straight to Li Yan, saying with some admiration:

"Ms. Li Yan, huh? I heard from the servants that you won the first prize in the last poetry competition. If nothing unexpected happened last time, maybe the smart Miss Li can stand out again!"

"Miss Su, you are too kind. I am just a little luckier."

When Li Yan heard Su Yue mention that he was the first in the last poetry competition, he raised his head, with an unstoppable pride in his tone.

"Ms. Li, you are so smart. This nine-ring chain is no piece of cake for you."

Su Yue directly expressed her thoughts, which made Li Yan stunned.

"Yes, if you can untie the Nine Rings, I will apologize to you. However, in my opinion, you are a concubine's daughter, so you probably don't have the ability to get my apology."

Chen Wanwan knew that Su Yue was trying to help her out, so she spoke loudly to Li Yan.

She specifically mentioned the word "bastard daughter" because Yue'er had told her before that Li Yan hated being called a concubine's daughter the most.

She just wanted to irritate Li Yan!

"Miss Chen, do you keep your word?"

When Li Yan heard Chen Wanwan talking about "bastard" all the time, her expression didn't look good, but she still tried hard to maintain her weak image.
