"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. What are you doing? But have I offended you in any way that you have come to me personally to question me?"
Shen Ruoyan pretended to be confused. Princess Shun had just apologized several times at her door, and the servants had reported it clearly, but she pretended to be completely unaware.
Seeing that everyone around was looking at him, he quickly scolded: "Why are you so unspiritual? The princess is here, why don't you invite her in?"
No one is allowed to enter the Marquis' Mansion without a visiting card.
The princess is of noble status, so special cases are naturally handled specially.
The servants did invite her into the mansion to wait, but Princess Shun refused.
She came here this time to perform a sincere apology in front of outsiders. The more people who saw it, the better. If she went inside the Marquis' Mansion, no matter how well she performed, no one would support her!
So, the princess smiled and said, "It's because I don't want to bother them. I don't blame them."
Today, the princess was portraying a considerate, magnanimous, and gentle persona. Seeing the crowds gathering, she would have had her subordinates chase these lowly people away. They were so humble that even a glance from them was a blessing from their ancestors!
But now she was smiling in a good-tempered manner. If Shen Ruoyan didn't know what kind of person she was, she would have been fooled.
Being able to sit on the position of princess, it seems that she has some brains.
At least, it looks pretty good.
"It is an honor for our entire mansion that the princess has come. How can it be considered a nuisance?" Shen Ruoyan showed a look of gratitude, but when the princess approached her, she subconsciously shuddered and took a few steps back!
"Princess, please forgive me!"
Princess Shun stood there awkwardly, feeling very confused, wondering what Shen Ruoyan was up to.
But since the show has begun, it must be finished!
So, the Princess of Prince Shun repeated her purpose, emphasizing that she had taken action to punish Lu Yan and Lu Changchuan because she had misunderstood that they wanted to bully her son.
Now that she knew it was a misunderstanding, even though she was a princess, she still had to go and apologize in person to show her royal demeanor.
What an extraordinary capacity!
"What are you talking about, Princess? Didn't you say at the beginning that if you hit him, then so be it. Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, it is an offense to the prince, so it is not too much to give him a beating!" Shen Ruoyan pretended to be surprised, "Did Princess forget?"
The princess' smile froze on her face instantly. "When did I ever say such a thing?"
Shen Ruoyan looked at her timidly, not even daring to look directly at her. He kept a distance from her and said hesitantly, "Since the princess said no... then there is no."
These words, which only made things more obvious, made Princess Shun's face turn pale. However, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, she couldn't say anything bad to Shen Ruoyan.
She could only grit her teeth and force a smile, saying, "You must have heard wrong. Look, this is a generous gift that I personally prepared. There are study treasures for the children, and gold and silver jewelry for you. Take a look. Do you like it?"
In order to reverse her reputation, the princess really spent a lot of money this time!
Everything she brought was good stuff. Many of them were priceless treasures, real gold and silver!
Shen Ruoyan was flattered, but looking at the princess's eyes, she was timid: "Princess, you are too kind. Since it is a misunderstanding, I should not ask for these things..."
Princess Shun did not allow anyone to hide those good things, and did not even close the box. She just held them in her hands and let everyone see them.
The people around them exclaimed in amazement, but Shen Ruoyan remained unmoved and even resisted, as if what those maids were holding in their hands were not precious treasures, but a flood and a beast!
Seeing her like this, Princess Shun's patience was almost exhausted.
She suppressed the urge to get angry and said with a fake smile: "Chen Ruoyan, don't refuse. These are the apology gifts from this princess to you, you must accept them!"
She personally picked up a box of jewelry, took a few steps forward, and wanted to hand it to Shen Ruoyan in person.
Princess Shun walked forward slowly. She was just walking normally, but the people around her felt an invisible sense of oppression - because Shen Ruoyan's reaction was so horrified!
Shen Ruoyan first opened his eyes wide in fear, and then his whole body seemed to be frozen, staying in the same place as if he had forgotten to move!
When Princess Shun stretched out a hand to pull her and was about to put the box in her hand, Shen Ruoyan suddenly screamed, and fell heavily to the ground with a thud!
She was so frightened that her body was shaking, and she kept shouting, "It's all my fault. I let the princess get scolded. I won't dare to do it again. Princess, please forgive me! Princess, please forgive me!"
Shen Ruoyan showed a stress reaction as if she was frightened. Princess Shun was confused. She just pulled Shen Ruoyan, so why was she crying and screaming like this?
But the eyes of the people around him gradually changed.
"I thought the princess was condescending, but I didn't expect she was trying to force a confession out of me!"
"Yes, looking at the frightened look on the wife of the Marquis of Changning's face, I'm afraid she must have been scolded by the princess behind her back a lot. Otherwise, how could she be so scared?"
"That's right, that's right. I was wondering how the princess could possibly apologize. It turns out she was just trying to put on an act! Poor Lady Changning. Not only has she been wronged, but she also has to act with the princess. Look how scared she is... How pitiful!"
There were more and more questioning voices, and Princess Shun wanted to tear their mouths apart and stop them from speaking!
But she knew that at this moment she not only couldn't do this, but also had to endure it.
If you can't bear it, not only will all your efforts today be in vain, but you will also have no way to resolve the situation later!
"What are you doing? This princess is really here to apologize, please get up quickly." Princess Shun had no choice but to squat down and pull up Shen Ruoyan herself.
Although Shen Ruoyan looks weak, it is not easy to pull her up.
Princess Shun strained her strength and dragged Shen Ruoyan up from the ground with great effort. Otherwise, she would look like she was bullied by herself, and she would not be able to explain even if she opened her mouth.
However, she finally helped the person up, and the next second, Shen Ruoyan seemed unable to stand and fell to the side again!
"Oh no, the lady has fainted!"
The people in the Marquis' Mansion were instantly thrown into chaos. In the chaos, Princess Shun didn't know who had snatched Shen Ruoyan from her hands. By the time she reacted, the door of the Marquis' Mansion was slammed shut in front of her, and Shen Ruoyan was also carried in by the people in the Marquis' Mansion.
She stood there, completely stunned!
