Chapter 256: Ping Zhongshan (VI)



Following the princess' introduction, everyone looked over.

Wei Li stood tall and straight, and behaved very modestly and politely. "My name is Wei Li, nice to meet you all."

I have to say.

The sons of the Wei family are all good-looking, with delicate and handsome features, broad and high foreheads, long and thick eyebrows. In addition, they have been exercising recently, so their skin is a healthy wheat color.

Judging from his appearance alone, he is handsome and worthy of being a man raised in a noble family.

It was hard to look at the other girl too closely, I just glanced at her and she seemed a bit dark...

After all, she was a noble lady from a big family, so people didn't dare to talk to her and just complimented Wei Li.

Wei Xiyin pretended to be weak, as if she was about to faint. She held a handkerchief in her hand and wiped the sweat off her face with her orchid fingers. "Cousin, how long are you going to talk? Why is Zhongshan Kingdom so shabby? Look, there's nothing but dirt all around, and the city gate is not even as big as our fortress..."

The girl's tone of voice was slightly different from before, as if she was pinching her throat to speak.

Commonly known as the clip sound.

When Qin Shan heard such a pretentious voice, his jawline tensed and he pinched his thigh hard.

One of the soldiers behind him couldn't hold it in any longer, so he quickly took off the bamboo hat on his head and covered his face with it, hiding inside the hat and grinning silently.

Wei Li paused for a moment, took a deep breath, tried to maintain his composure, and faced everyone with a smile.

"My sister is ignorant, I hope you can forgive me."

General Chen and Xing Shi waved their hands repeatedly, "It's no problem, it's no problem."

Wei Xiyin, however, didn't give him any face at all. She turned to look at Princess Zhongshan and said bluntly, "Princess, do you have any ice at home? It's so hot, and my cousins ​​and I are kind enough to send you back. I don't agree with the shabby place you live in. After all, I've never lived in a palace..."

The princess was silent for a moment, then replied kindly, "Madam Wei wants to live in the palace, then she can."

General Chen\u0026Xing Shi: “…” Before even entering the city gate, you’ve even chosen a place to live?

The corner of Mr. Hu's mouth twitched slightly. The last time he saw such a stubborn young lady was when she was from my aunt's family...

Can you just live in the palace whenever you want?

That is His Highness's residence, and outsiders have never been accommodated in the palace before.

The original plan was to settle the Wei family's people in the city's mansion according to convention. Now that the princess has agreed in front of everyone, will His Highness still stop them outside the palace?

The princess has just returned, and even if it is just a superficial effort, His Highness would find it difficult to refute her words.

Wei Xiyin seemed completely oblivious, suddenly becoming the center of attention. When she heard the princess agree, she turned around and ordered the troops behind her, "What are you standing there for! Why don't you raise your gifts and follow the princess!"

He hummed, "Be careful. If you bump into my things, I'll let Grandpa punish you when we get home."

Everyone: “…”

"Yes." Several guards quickly adjusted their expressions, put their hats back on, and came to the front pushing several carts piled high with luggage.

The cart was filled with items used by the women, covered with cloth, with only a small corner visible from below. Judging from the shape and outline, the top part, turned upside down, looked like a bathtub...

Wei Xiyin turned around and saw everyone staring at her in amazement. She instantly turned into a delicate flower again, stepped forward and pulled Wei Li's sleeve, saying pitifully, "Cousin, can we go in? It's so hot outside, I'm about to faint."

Seeing that Wei Li's face had turned purple, she quickly pinched his arm hard.

Wei Li felt pain and responded subconsciously: "Okay, go in and rest immediately."

Mr. Hu remained silent.

He originally just came out to welcome the princess back to the palace, but now a large group of people followed him. His Highness will definitely be angry and blame him for not doing his job well.

But this is the princess's savior, and I can't embarrass her in front of everyone.

Helplessly, he had to lead the way, and a group of people accompanied the princess into the city.

Wei Xiyin followed Wei Li in small steps. She caught a glimpse of Chu Yu hiding among the troops at some point.

When they came out, they were all wearing bamboo hats on their heads. Looking back at first glance, they saw all heads wearing exactly the same hats, and it was impossible to tell where Chu Yu was.

Why is he hiding?

Wei Xiyin looked thoughtfully at the Mr. Hu in front of her. Could it be that they knew each other?

When you reach the palace gate.

According to the rules, one must be searched when entering the palace, and these followers of the Wei family are definitely not allowed to follow in, so they can only be placed outside the palace.

Who would have thought.

As soon as Mr. Hu said the word "body search", Mrs. Wei started making a fuss again.

"What?!" Wei Xiyin's voice suddenly rose. "Is this how you in Zhongshan treat your princess's savior?!"

"When I was in Kyoto, no one dared to search me when I went to the palace to pay my respects. Why do you have the right to search me?"

Wei Xiyin looked down on everyone present with equal disdain. "My gifts are all made of top-quality items. How can you servants just look at them and see them? If one or two are lost, I can't even afford to compensate you even if I sell you all."

Mr. Hu looked unhappy, but he was unwilling to argue with a young lady.

He bowed to Wei Li and said, "This is the rule. I hope you can persuade your sister and not make things difficult for us."

Wei Xiyin was not happy when she heard this. "If you have the guts, just tell me what you mean by looking for my cousin. What? Do you dare to look down on me?"

Upon hearing this, the guard behind him took off his hat again and covered his face with it.

General Chen and Xing Shi finally saw their actions and thought that these soldiers were feeling embarrassed.

Indeed, having such a tyrannical master would make everyone feel embarrassed.

Xing Shi thought of the prince in the palace and felt deeply moved.

Mr. Hu's face turned from red to white, and from white to blue.

Wei Li looked embarrassed. "Sir, please don't blame me. I can't help it. My cousin has been spoiled by her family. I hope everyone can bear with her."

Wei Xiyin refused to give in and kept making a fuss at the palace gate. She pointed at and cursed at any guard who dared to approach her.

Thinking of her noble family background from the Qinghe Wei clan and the fact that she was the princess's savior, the soldier felt embarrassed.

Finally, it was the princess who spoke up, "The luggage Madam Wei brought are all women's belongings, and it's really not appropriate for the soldiers to search. Some of it is also my luggage, so let it be."

As she spoke, she stared at the soldiers at the palace gate and ordered, "Let them pass quickly."

The two soldiers did not move, but looked at Mr. Hu hesitantly.

The princess's expression suddenly turned cold. "What? Are my words useless now?"

Xiang Qi and other followers behind him immediately drew their swords and glared at the guards, "How dare you disobey the princess's orders? Are you planning a rebellion?"

The soldier shuddered with fear and said, "I dare not."

The guards blocking the palace gate immediately stepped aside and let them pass.

Wei Xiyin raised her chin and pointed at the five soldiers who were to transport the gifts, including Qin Shan.

"My cousin and I can't be without people to serve us, so it's just the five of you."

The original plan was to have Chu Yu.

Wei Xiyin suddenly changed her mind.
