Cen Xi's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but let out a profound exclamation: "Damn!"
At the same time, Jun Xiaoqiao couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn!"
When Zhu Yanniang saw the two of them say "Damn" in unison, she also said "Damn" with a blank look on her face. Although she didn't understand what it meant, she strangely felt that she should agree with them.
"What do you mean? What are you relying on? You vixen! I'm going back to the palace right now and have my brother send troops to wipe you out."
The brain-dead sixth princess screamed hysterically, then got up angrily and prepared to return to the palace.
"Wait! Did I say you could leave?"
Cen Xi was never a good person, and besides, he disliked being provoked the most. She thought that after she made things clear, this silly princess would face reality and return to the palace in tears, but this is how it turned out.
In the end, she still had to bear the reputation of being a vixen. What a pity!
What do you want?
Yan Yuyan glared at Cen Xi with resentment.
"Of course I'll give you a good beating. You think you can just pick a fight and walk away? No way. Qingyi, go and call the steward of the manor."
Cen Xi forced himself to smile at Yan Yuyan, then gave instructions to the woman in green beside him.
"Yes, miss, I'll go right away."
Qingyi clearly disliked this unreasonable princess, so she agreed without hesitation.
"How dare you hit the princess! I will have my brother exterminate your entire family!"
Seeing that the other party might be serious, Yan Yuyan quickly got up and tried to escape.
"I hate people who bully others by taking advantage of their power. Go away and don't say another word."
Before Cen Xi could even make a move, Zhu Yanniang couldn't stand it anymore and directly pressed Yan Yuyan's pressure points, instantly rendering the hot-tempered princess unable to move.
Before long, Qingyi summoned the steward of the Prime Minister's residence. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw this scene, and immediately sweat poured down his forehead.
"Are you the steward of this household?"
Cen Xi asked with a smile despite her pale lips.
"Yes! What are your orders, young lady?"
The butler replied under pressure.
“Beat up this woman who called me a vixen, and teach all the dogs she brought a lesson until I’m satisfied.”
Cen Xi smiled gently and said to the butler.
"You...you actually dared to have people from the Prime Minister's residence beat me? Are you out of your mind?!"
Yan Yuyan couldn't believe that this woman was even crazier than her.
"Yes, I dare to do it. Someone once told me that once I come to the capital, I can walk sideways. Today I will verify the truth of that statement. Why isn't the steward making his move yet?"
Cen Xi raised his lips in a defiant manner, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the Sixth Princess Yan Yuyan and the steward.
The butler closed his eyes and made his final decision:
"Someone, do as this young lady wishes."
"You...you insolent servant, how dare you hit the princess!"
Yan Yuyan stared wide-eyed in disbelief, but before she could finish speaking, the nanny from the Prime Minister's residence attacked her.
Suddenly, the courtyard was filled with wails. The Sixth Princess was being slapped and had her hair pulled. A nanny took out a tube of silver needles and kept poking her body. Cen Xi and Jun Xiaoqiao felt like they were watching an ancient palace intrigue performance.
Isn't this Rong Momo bullying Ziwei?
"Hey, is there a lake in this manor?"
Cen Xi raised an eyebrow as she watched all this, then suddenly asked the housekeeper casually.
"have!"
The butler replied.
"Then take them to the lake and let them drink some lake water, especially this princess. Give her a good wash to prevent her from uttering any more foul words. If the steward is worried about her, he can wait until his prime minister returns before speaking to him. If he wants to marry this sixth princess, I will leave immediately."
Cen Xi glanced indifferently at the butler's eyes, which dared not look at her, and gave her instructions.
"You're being too harsh, young lady. That's not what I meant. I'll get on it right away."
The housekeeper was speechless and could only do as Cen Xi asked.
“Cen Xi, aren’t you going a bit too far? What if the emperor wants to kill him? The princess has lost royal dignity by being insulted like this. Aren’t you afraid of him? You’ll have a hard time in the future.”
Seeing the drama escalating, Jun Xiaoqiao moved closer to Cen Xi and offered a reminder.
"What, you're afraid he'll bully you the whole way, so you're speaking up for him?"
Cen Xi raised an eyebrow and looked at Jun Xiaoqiao.
"You really don't love Shen Jinchen?"
Jun Xiaoqiao asked with some surprise, not thinking that Cen Xi didn't have feelings for him.
"Ah, didn't he say he'd let me do whatever I want? I'm just testing it out. Don't worry, with our abilities, even if the emperor wanted to kill someone, he couldn't."
Cen Xi spoke casually.
"Okay! I was overthinking it."
Jun Xiaoqiao remained silent.
“Exactly, I think Cen Xi did the right thing. You didn’t want to come here in the first place, but since they’re forcing you, you have to pay the price.”
Zhu Yanniang strongly agreed with Cen Xi's approach. Since they had gone to such lengths to bring them all here, they should bear the weight of what they could not bear.
If you can't even protect someone from something this small, how can you talk about love?
"Aaaaaah! Waaaaah!"
In a short while, Yan Yuyan had been tortured beyond recognition. Cen Xiyuan, observing these people, finally felt somewhat satisfied, and then said to the woman in green beside him:
"Have the steward drive the Sixth Princess out of the manor."
"Have you two seen enough?"
"Cen Xi, I only truly realize how wicked you are today. I have to admire your ability to ruin someone like that. The royal princess is practically naked, I'm afraid she'll never be able to get married. What if the emperor puts her in the Prime Minister's residence as a concubine for Shen Jinchen?"
Jun Xiaoqiao looked at the group of disheveled people, especially the Sixth Princess Yan Yuyan, and clicked her tongue in amazement.
"That would be the best. If that's the case, Shen Jinchen will never be able to marry me for the rest of his life. From then on, I can go wherever I want, and he won't be able to stop me anymore."
Cen Xi smiled lightly, not caring about the consequences. If things turned out as Jun Xiaoqiao predicted, she would be relieved.
"You really don't like him, and you don't care that he's involved with other women?"
Jun Xiaoqiao felt that she was increasingly unable to understand Cen Xi.
"Actually, I like her physically, and I'm also a little tempted emotionally, but these feelings are far less important than his feat of kidnapping me back to Beijing. So, from now on, we can only be enemies."
Cen Xi made a summary, but there was another layer of meaning in her heart that she did not want to reveal to everyone.
She suspected that their previous predictions about the grand banquet for the noble lady were inaccurate, and that she might be the last person to restrain Shen Jinchen, perhaps even forced to draw her sword against him in the end.
So why bother with deep feelings? All she cares about is being reborn into a better family in the next life. To be honest, she feels a little sorry for Shen Jinchen. Why is he so blind to fall for her?
Jun Xiaoqiao pouted and sighed, "Only you would be so vindictive. If I could meet such a handsome and domineering man, I would definitely be conquered by him long ago. Cen Xi, you have no conscience. In Shangyang City, he saved your life."
