Xie Yunsheng is a "Snow White" who can talk to animals, but unfortunately, she was framed and exiled to suffer among the common people shortly after her birth.
On a rainy night when s...
Chapter 176 Sigh, she's even learned to sow discord among the wolves.
The girls had never seen anything like this before, and they immediately started biting their handkerchiefs and crying.
Zijuan had just lost her composure, but now that she's calmed down a bit, she's not so nervous anymore, because she knows that Zhuifeng has been protecting her from the shadows all along.
If the wolf pack dares to take a step forward, Zhui Feng will jump out in the next second.
Sheng Sheng naturally knew this as well. These wolves must have just gone through a fierce battle and then come here. Their physical strength was definitely not as good as when they were at their peak. Sheng Sheng had confidence in Zhui Feng. These wolves definitely couldn't beat him.
Moreover, even without Chasing Wind, Old Cat had already gone to call for reinforcements. She had plenty of ways to stall for time until the Imperial Guards arrived.
Therefore, the youngest one was actually the calmest.
Sheng Sheng didn't want Zhui Feng's identity to be exposed to these young ladies. After all, Zhui Feng was Xie Yun Chuan's secret guard, and Sheng Sheng didn't want everyone to know that she had such a secret guard by her side unless absolutely necessary.
The wolf king stared at Sheng Sheng without moving, then took a few steps forward. The little girls were immediately startled and screamed softly as they backed away, stepping into the water.
The wolf king showed no sign of stopping. Li Manyan, with a heroic expression as if she were facing death, was about to pounce when Sheng Sheng grabbed her, pulled her back, and stepped forward herself.
Li Manyan was even more frightened: "Princess! Danger!"
With a calm smile, he posed the probing question: "How's your little wolf cub doing?"
Li Manyan was stunned, confused. In her panic, she still tried to shield Sheng Sheng behind her again: "Princess, please step back!"
Sheng Sheng ignored Li Manyan's words and simply pulled her hand. Her small hand was soft and warm. For a moment, Li Manyan had a strange feeling that such a small hand, not even half the size of her own palm, was so strong.
Sheng Sheng watched as the wolf king, who was clearly suppressing his anger, instantly became incredibly ruthless after hearing her words, his gaze filled with hatred. He clearly understood how things had unfolded.
Sheng Sheng regained her composure and reassured the group of beautiful women behind her: "Don't be afraid, everyone. With Sheng Sheng here, you'll all be fine."
Tongzhen's voice was gentle and soft. Although it came from the mouth of a five-year-old child, everyone knew that a five-year-old child was no match for so many fierce wolves. But for some reason, everyone felt that there was an unusually strong light emanating from Tongzhen, which calmed their emotions.
Zijuan was already less afraid because Zhuifeng was protecting her in secret, and now seeing her princess's calm demeanor, she also calmed down.
Zijuan said, "Yes, everyone, don't be afraid. Our princess's guards have already run back to the hunting grounds to call for reinforcements. They'll be here to rescue us soon!"
Li Manyan also forced herself to calm down, suppressing her worries, and joined in comforting the others.
Perhaps it was the princess's identity that was so intimidating, because after such comforting words, the sobbing little girls indeed stopped crying.
Crying won't help at this point; you'll still get eaten. It's better to calm down and think of a solution; there might still be a glimmer of hope.
Sheng Sheng was very pleased and praised the girls repeatedly. The teenage girls were a little embarrassed by her praise.
Li Manyan calmed down. Although she was inexplicably comforted by Shengsheng, as the oldest among them, how could she let a child like Shengsheng stand in front of her?
A subject dies for his lord. Although she is not a subject and Sheng Sheng is not the lord, she is the daughter of a court official and Sheng Sheng is a princess. The principle is the same!
"Princess, please step back! Be careful that wolf doesn't hurt you! If anything happens to you, how am I supposed to explain it to His Majesty, Consort Rong, and the Second Prince?"
Others echoed her sentiments; though they were afraid, they weren't so cowardly as to need a child to shield them.
Sheng Sheng was quite touched, which shows that these beautiful women are not only good-looking but also kind-hearted; they are all very good people.
It seems that the only way to intimidate them is through the simplest and most direct method!
With a wave of her hand, she came right away, saying righteously, "Alright, alright, I am a princess, and you are all subjects of the Great Yu. How can I, as a princess of a country, stand by and watch my people suffer when they are in trouble!"
Everyone was stunned, and moved to tears again.
Seeing that these people had inexplicably gone from being afraid of him to ignoring him, the wolf king was furious. He roared, "You damned human, how dare you deceive me! Not only did you prevent us from capturing that white tiger mother and cub, but you also..."
The wolf king gritted his teeth, unable to utter a single word for a long time, seemingly furious.
Seeing that he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, Sheng Sheng took pity on him and kindly helped him finish the sentence.
Sheng Sheng blinked, tilted her head, and asked, "What are you trying to say? Did Sheng Sheng cause any trouble for your little wolf cubs?"
The wolf king howled, clearly not expecting her to be so arrogant, knowing why he had come and still provoking him like this.
"You conspired with the White Tiger to attack the wolf pack, causing my wife and children to be seriously injured and die, and even two of my children's bodies were never found! If it weren't for you, my brothers wouldn't have been besieged by the White Tiger and suffered such heavy losses!"
"Wait, wait, wait."
Sheng Sheng was unhappy when she heard this. Why were all sorts of accusations being pinned on her?
"First of all, your wife and children got hurt because you were too confident and didn't even leave a single wolf to protect them. Secondly, what did I lie to you about? Okay, I admit I exaggerated a little in some places, but it wasn't all bragging. You all see clearly what I'm capable of, don't you?"
Back then, a casual wave of the hand could make a leaf fall, and with another wave, the leaf would grow back.
Where have wolves ever seen someone who can communicate with animals without any barriers? And looking at her demeanor, how could they not be completely intimidated?
Coupled with Sheng Sheng's deliberately mysterious demeanor at the time, and the wolf king's cautious and suspicious nature, he immediately believed it and even imagined a series of problems.
Looking back now, she really didn't say anything else, nor did she say anything specific; it was all something the wolf king came up with himself.
The wolf pack only thought their analysis was correct because of Sheng Sheng's performance; in reality, it was all just Sheng Sheng's misleading information!
“I didn’t nod or shake my head. How would I know what you’re thinking? I’m just stating the facts. You don’t even leave a guard at home, which is definitely risky.”
The wolf king was furious, yet he also felt that there was some truth to it.
The two wolves beside the wolf king were also stunned.
Hmm...that seems to make sense?
Wait a minute, that doesn't make sense either. Have they been tricked?
