Chapter 154 Princess: Start to fight!

“Hehehe.”

Chu Qinghui laughed.

"Oh my, look at our little sister's eloquence."

"Sister, I haven't said anything yet, and you're already trying to shut me up."

"My little sister is the daughter of the empress, so her life is of course extremely important, much more precious than ours."

"As your elder sister, I just want to remind you that since I know you are the princess of Da Chu, you should pay more attention to your reputation. You represent not only yourself, but also the reputation of Da Chu."

"If something happens in the future..."

Chu Jiayi spoke directly, "Eighth sister, do you mean that if there is anything that really concerns the reputation of the Great Chu in the future, Eighth sister would rather lose her own life than save the reputation of the Great Chu?"

"For example, if someone comes to our Great Chu to seek marriage in the future, for the sake of Great Chu's reputation, will Eighth Sister be willing to agree?"

[Oh my god, I never thought my little princess could be so full of energy]

[It feels so good to be so confrontational]

[The key is to hit the weak spot of others at once]

[Look at the complexion of the Eighth Princess. She could open a dyeing room now.]

[It feels so good, so good, please continue]

Chu Jiayi smiled slightly. Yaoyao praised me again.

Since Yaoyao asked me to continue, how could I let her down?

"Eighth sister, you haven't answered me yet."

Chu Qinghui: ...

I never thought that Chu Jiayi, who used to be as timid as a little lamb, would be so good at talking.

The most important thing is how she answers this question?

If he answered yes, there was no guarantee that Chu Jiayi would turn around and talk to the Emperor and Empress and arrange a marriage for him.

If you answer that you don't want to, wouldn't that be shooting yourself in the face?

No matter how you answer this, it's really wrong.

"Haha, my sister is really good at making things difficult for me. Since you don't want others to tell you about what happened last night, then I won't tell you."

"But there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. If the news gets out, don't blame me for telling you."

What Chu Jiayi wants is that Chu Qinghui won't speak casually in the future.

As for the news getting out, she knew from the beginning that it would definitely get out.

"Since we're talking about what happened last night, let me express my opinion."

"First of all, last night, the eldest brother of the Jiang family brought me back. On the one hand, he was worried about my injury, and on the other hand, it was also my initiative to ask for it."

"Originally, the eldest brother of the Jiang family was considering my reputation and planned to come back to find someone first, and then bring me back to the house."

Jiang Yuansong: ...

No, after the little princess was bitten last night, she broke out in cold sweats and couldn’t even speak. How could the little princess take the initiative to ask for it?

However, Jiang Yuansong soon realized that the little princess was putting all the blame on herself.

If Jiang Yuansong took the initiative, even if he saved the little princess' life, if the remarks were unfavorable to the princess, the emperor and empress would inevitably blame Jiang Yuansong.

But if the little princess had brought it up on her own initiative, then who would have an excuse to blame him?

Jiang Yuansong was so moved that he wanted to stand up and tell the truth.

He is a grown man and he has done what he should do. He should bear all the consequences instead of letting a little girl take the responsibility.

However……

Chu Jiayi glared at him and Jiang Yuansong didn't dare to move.

Chu Jiayi then smiled slightly and continued speaking.

"I am asking for my own life, but I am also not disregarding the dignity of the Chu State."

"We all know that in the past decade or so, there have been frequent wars in the Great Chu. The civil war has just ended, and there are bitter battles on the border. I don't know how many families have been displaced, and how many rich people have lost their husbands and sons."

"Now that my father is encouraging us to rest and recuperate, if Great Chu wants to prosper again, it must have a larger population."

"Then you must never have the harsh thoughts about women that you had in the past."

"Now, as the princess of Da Chu, I have to tell everyone that rumors are nothing compared to life, and we should not even encourage the spread of such rumors."

"Even if you've been married before, you can still get a divorce, remarry, and pursue your own happiness again."

"So I'm not afraid of what happened last night being spread out. Even if it's spread, how can I, a princess of the Great Chu, be afraid of what others say about me?"

"If my work can help more women escape from their shackles, it will be a great merit for me."

Although Chu Jiayi said this with a smile, it made the Eighth Princess Chu Qinghui break out in a cold sweat.

It's just a hug from a man, why did you exaggerate it to such an extent?

Now, after what he said, it seemed as if she was a hero of the Great Chu.

She is worthy of being the Queen's daughter, she is very good at talking and winning people's hearts.

Chu Qinghui grumbled in her heart but didn't dare to show it on her face.

I even thought about spreading the news to the whole palace, but now I have changed my mind.

If she continued to spread the news, wouldn't she be helping Chu Jiayi gain fame?

He would never do something that would not benefit himself but would benefit Chu Jiayi.

There was silence in the dining hall for a moment.

Sudden……

"Snap, snap, snap."

There was a round of applause.

But it was Chu Wuxun who was clapping.

"Yes, Jiayi's words are very much in line with my opinion."

"After experiencing war, the most important thing for the Chu State is to recuperate. I have heard any remarks that go against this national policy..."

Chu Wuxun's gaze returned to everyone and finally stopped on the eighth princess, Chu Qinghui.

He didn't continue the conversation, but his meaning was fully conveyed.

Chu Qinghui: ...

She hasn't done anything yet, why are everyone targeting him?

Oh, she is so pitiful.

No one paid any attention to poor Chu Qinghui.

After saying these words, Chu Jiayi quickly left, saying that she was not feeling well and needed to rest.

The others also dispersed.

Today this is the stage for the two princesses to fight, and they are just tools.

Now that the protagonists are gone, why are they still here?

It was the three siblings of the Jiang family who walked last.

Jiang Yueyao moved closer to her eldest brother and chuckled.

"Wow, brother, I didn't expect the princess to be so righteous."

"Do you think the princess is super nice right now?"

Jiang Yuansong nodded consciously, then shook his head.

"The princess is a very nice person, but what I admire more is her ideas."

"It is a blessing for our Great Chu to have such a princess."

Jiang Yueyao nodded.

Well, people nowadays always like to take the content of the conversation to a level that she can't even imagine.

She, Jiang Yueyao, is just an ordinary person.

I care more about my eldest brother's lifelong happiness.

then……

"So, big brother also thinks that having a princess is a blessing for you?"

Jiang Yuansong: ...
