Chapter 44: Fighting with the Third Princess
"stop!"
The moment Jiang Yuyan saw Qin Shangyu, her heart almost jumped out.
She rushed over and squeezed into the crowd. She was shocked, happy, and scared. A myriad of emotions surged up, and her eyes instantly turned red.
Pushing the guards away, Jiang Yuyan hugged Qin Shangyu tightly.
"Shang Yu... Shang Yu..."
There was a hint of tears in her voice. Qin Shangyu froze in place, staring at her in disbelief.
The guards were stunned by this sudden change, and were actually pushed away by the woman. At this moment, they looked at each other in bewilderment.
Jiang Yuyan was trembling all over. "How are you, Shang Yu? Where are you hurt?"
Qin Shangyu seemed to be speechless, and after a while he slowly said: "It's okay... I just sprained my ankle..."
"I'll take you to see a doctor..."
Jiang Yuyan sniffed and stared at him intently. She wanted to say sorry and also wanted to say that she missed him very much.
"Who are you?!"
At this moment, an abrupt female voice sounded, breaking the atmosphere of the long-awaited reunion.
Jiang Yuyan suddenly came back to her senses, only to see a woman with a fierce look looking at them with displeasure.
Jiang Yuyan had just seen the woman's guards pulling Qin Shangyu, and she was already unhappy. She asked, "Who are you?"
"I am the only princess of this great moon, Princess Baoyue!"
Jiang Yuyan's heart sank. It turned out that this was the only princess who did not attend Xie Jingyu's wedding. She heard that she was the pearl of Dayue Kingdom and the emperor loved her like a treasure.
"What do you want to do, Princess?" Jiang Yuyan asked in a cold voice with a vigilant look in her eyes.
"But we just invited him to the princess's mansion for tea, and a lowly person dared to refuse."
Xie Siqi was shocked by the woman's appearance. She was so jealous that she even forgot about Jiang Yuyan's rudeness.
"I'm afraid that won't work. He's my fiancé. Men and women shouldn't touch each other. I'm afraid that will go against the princess's good intentions."
Jiang Yuyan stood in front of Qin Shangyu. Her words were polite, but her tone was unfriendly.
Qin Shangyu was stunned. What did she say? Fiancé?
Looking at the woman standing in front of him, the bitterness, pain, and longing in his heart for many days came to his mind at once, and his eyes became hot.
Xie Siqi was already jealous and furious, and she became even more angry when she saw the two of them.
"You dare to disobey my orders. Are you disrespecting the royal family?"
"Even if you are a princess, you can't force someone to marry you, right?!"
Jiang Yuyan argued loudly. Shang Yu was probably forced to jump off the building by them. He was filled with hatred and protected the people behind him.
When Xie Siqi heard the word "robbed", she felt as if her dignity had been trampled on. She said angrily, "I just like him, so what! Get her away and take him away!"
The guards looked at each other, then hesitated and stepped forward to take action.
Shadow One and Shadow Two quickly blocked the way, "Your Highness, Princess, Jin An! This is my wife from Prince Wu's mansion. Please show some mercy, Your Highness!"
Xie Siqi was stunned. She had heard before that her newly married aunt was a stunning beauty, but she had sneered, "How pretty can a country girl be?" She didn't expect it to be true.
But don’t say that Xie Jingyu is a young man without hereditary title, even if he is the King of Wu, he has to please her.
I couldn't help but sneer, "Aunt, you just got married, and you're hooking up with other men. If my uncle finds out, he'll probably make a scene. Don't try to snatch someone from me today."
After giving the signal with their eyes, the guards took action.
Ying Yi and Ying Er had no choice but to fight back. It was true that offending the princess would lead to bad consequences, but failing to protect the princess would also lead to death.
At this time, Jiang Yuyan was so angry that she was shaking all over. She didn't expect that the princess would be such a person!
Seeing that Ying Yiying and Er Ying were outnumbered, and another guard came forward to catch her, she gritted her teeth and shouted, "Who dares to come forward!"
She quickly picked up a sword from the ground and held it across her chest. She glanced at the passers-by who were hiding far away and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, please be my witnesses. These men tried to do something bad to me in the street. How should they be dealt with according to the Dayue Law?"
The guards' scalps tingled when they heard this. When did they want to do something bad to her? They just wanted to pull her away.
A young man who couldn't stand it stood up and said, "According to Dayue law, anyone who openly teases, humiliates, or hurts a woman will be sentenced to more than ten years in prison. If the behavior is serious, behead her in public."
"Well, if you dare to touch me, not only will I make you bleed to death on the spot, I will also sue you for bullying me in the street!" Jiang Yuyan looked at him coldly, with an aura that was inviolable.
The guards were also too terrified to move.
Xie Siqi's eyes turned red with anger, "You, you bunch of rubbish..."
After saying that, she drew her sword and chopped at Jiang Yuyan without hesitation. She hated her face.
It happened in a flash. Jiang Yuyan suddenly shouted, "Master Zheng!"
Xie Siqi was startled, and the sword had been knocked to the ground.
I saw a sturdy man flying in from the opposite window, with a smile on his lips but a sharp look in his eyes.
"Have you had enough of the show?" Jiang Yuyan asked unkindly. Just now when she glanced around, she noticed the familiar figure in the opposite window. It was Zheng Shaopu, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, whom she had met once.
Zheng Shaopu had indeed seen a good show today, but he did not expect that this woman would be so bold as to openly challenge the princess, just for a man!
He didn't know what kind of emotion was in his heart. Could there be true love among women in this world?
Being called out at this moment, he had no choice but to show up.
"Your Highness, Princess!"
Xie Siqi naturally recognized Zheng Shaopu. This man was a favorite of her father and didn't recognize any relatives. Even she herself was a little scared.
However, if a man makes a big fuss and alarms his father, he will inevitably be scolded.
"No need to be polite." Xie Siqi looked unhappy.
"Your Highness, this man has a very high reputation. Since he is someone else's fiancé, it may be inappropriate for him to go to the princess's mansion for tea. Although the princess appreciates talents, she also has to understand that this man abides by etiquette." Zheng Shaopu smiled and tried to smooth things over.
Jiang Yuyan didn't expect that Zheng Yanwang had such a smooth and sophisticated side.
Xie Siqi's expression instantly relaxed.
"Never mind. You just admire his talent and don't know how to appreciate it. Humph!"
After saying this, he waved his hand and left with his guards. However, the seeds of resentment and hatred quietly sprouted in his heart.
