Chapter 151 The Angry Princess and the Rough General 6
Shen Beizhan paid the money readily, and all the unsold items in Yumafang instantly became his.
The saddle that Chu Mengwan had picked out earlier was also taken away.
She held her empty hands and looked at Cha Jiu and Shen Beizhan with complicated eyes.
Now, those who had spent a long time picking things in the shop went home empty-handed.
Most of them are young men and women who receive a fixed salary. Naturally, they are not as free as Shen Beizhan, who can freely use his huge family assets to buy goods.
So they couldn't help but glare at Chu Mengwan with some complaining emotions.
Why would you mess with Shen Beizhan, this bastard?
It was the first time that Chu Mengwan was embarrassed in front of Cha Jiu.
Yuan Yao, who had not bought the horse gear she was looking for, glared at Cha Jiu fiercely and said, "I will have a good talk with my brother-in-law and ask him to be careful when he goes out and not be taken away by some unreasonable people."
Cha Jiu pulled out the whip from his waist and swung it at Yuan Yao's arm.
"Ah——" Yuan Yao was bleeding and cried out in pain.
Cha Jiu used some clever tricks, and although it looked like only a shallow bloodstain, it could actually cause deep pain in the bones that would last for a long time.
Chu Mengwan's expression changed: "Your Highness..."
Cha Jiu said indifferently, "Yuan Yao, you offended me in the market just now. I let you go once for Prime Minister Yuan's sake. Now you are speaking rudely again and committing a crime of insubordination. I will beat you with a whip even in front of Prime Minister Yuan and the censors."
Shen Beizhan had a few words with the shopkeeper before coming out, and happened to see Cha Jiu cracking the whip. He couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Originally, seeing that she didn't say anything when her saddle was snatched away, I thought she was the kind of person who wouldn't dare to get angry even if she was wronged.
I never thought that I have some temper and bloodiness.
The main reason why Yuan Yao dared to be so rude to Cha Jiu was because of Song Heng.
Song Heng plays the role of missing his deceased wife, clings to Yuan Xiang, and loves Yuan Yao like his own sister.
Cha Jiu originally loved Yuan Yao, so he naturally tolerated Yuan Yao in everything. Unexpectedly, this made Yuan Yao even more arrogant, and he almost forgot the difference between the monarch and his subjects.
Now Yuan Yao had tears in her eyes and trembling lips. She felt pain and anger, but she no longer dared to look up at Cha Jiu, let alone say a word.
Cha Jiu moved the wrist holding the whip, and Yuan Yao shrank into Chu Mengwan's arms.
Chu Mengwan was also afraid of the whip, but Yuan Yao was trying to stop her, so she could only bite the bullet and say, "Your Highness, please show mercy if you can."
Fortunately, Cha Jiu just put the whip back to his waist.
"Sure enough, a vicious dog will bark at people in the street if it is not tamed." Cha Jiu looked at the two of them with a half-smile, "Now it is much more obedient."
Chu Mengwan looked unhappy, said goodbye, and quickly left with Yuan Yao.
Shen Beizhan then walked up to Cha Jiu and said, "Actually, what can I do if I teach her a lesson just now? Your Highness is too cautious."
"Now the Crown Prince's Party and the Second Prince's Party are fighting fiercely, and Prime Minister Yuan is neutral. I don't want to go too far and push him to the Second Prince's side." After Cha Jiu finished speaking, he turned around and asked him, "What about you? Why are you so arrogant on purpose?"
Spending money to buy all the horse gear and offending most of the noble families in the capital was such an arrogant and stupid act.
Cha Jiu could see that Shen Beizhan was not such a stupid person.
Shen Beizhan's eyes flashed with admiration: "It seems that Your Highness and I have considered something."
He avoided answering the question.
He did not trust Cha Jiu, so naturally he would not tell him all his thoughts and plans.
Cha Jiu also understood.
At this moment, a petal floated in the wind and landed on her head.
Shen Beizhan pointed at Cha Jiu's hair and said, "Your Highness, there is something on your head."
Cha Jiu deliberately said, "Please help me take it down from there."
Shen Beizhan hesitated for a moment, but still went to great lengths to find Chenxiang and asked her to help him remove the petals.
Cha Jiu: “…”
Sure enough, there is still a long way to go.
…
The prince and many young men from aristocratic families accompanied the hunting party, including Song Heng.
The bows and arrows that Song Heng brought were broken by someone maliciously. He was standing outside the tent, discussing with the chief guard how to investigate the matter.
When his eyes met Cha Jiu in the distance, they instantly became tender.
Cha Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to him.
On the other hand, Chu Mengwan on the side secretly gritted her teeth.
Chu Mengwan knew that Song Heng was just acting, and she also knew that she was the only one in his heart.
But every time she saw her beloved man pretending to be affectionate to other women, she couldn't help feeling jealous.
When the prince heard that Cha Jiu had learned to ride a horse, he was extremely happy and took out the famous bow he had just acquired from his private storehouse as a gift to her.
"Ah Yuan, this bow is called the 'Dragon Tongue Bow'. The bow is made of wood from a thousand-year-old tree, and the bow string is made of the tendons of more than twenty strong clouded leopards. It is so powerful that it can split rocks within a hundred steps."
When people heard the prince's words, they stretched their necks to look at the famous bow in the brocade box.
As expected, the wood of the bow had a dark and restrained purple luster, and it looked very expensive.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so generous to Princess Chenghui...
Shen Beizhan and Chongwu were naturally interested in this powerful weapon of a famous master, so they took a closer look at it.
Seeing that his eyes were almost glued to the dragon tongue bow, Cha Jiu asked quietly: "Do you like it?"
Shen Beizhan said frankly: "I like it."
He had no other thoughts about the dragon tongue bow, he just admired it.
Cha Jiu understood and said to the prince, "Brother Prince, although this bow is good, it takes at least two stones of force to draw it. I'm afraid I can't use it."
The prince was upset: "I didn't think it through."
He was only concerned with giving all the good things to his sister, but he didn't think about whether they were suitable for her to use.
Cha Jiu held the prince's hand and said affectionately: "I know that the prince loves me. But since I can't use it, a famous bow should be matched with a famous general, why not give it to the right person?"
When Song Heng's younger brother Song Li heard this, he immediately reported to his brother excitedly: "Look, Princess Chenghui knows that your bow is broken, so she specially asked the prince for a dragon tongue bow for you!"
Song Heng was originally still upset about being teased maliciously and Cha Jiu's hot-and-cold attitude, but now that he saw that she was preparing to ask for a famous bow for him, he felt much better.
Sure enough, women all like to play hard to get.
He almost got fooled, thinking that Cha Jiu was going to fall in love with someone else.
The prince loved his sister, so he naturally agreed: "What I give you is yours, and you can do whatever you want with it."
Cha Jiu smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Prince brother."
Shen Beizhan was obviously obsessed with Ming Gong, but at this moment he couldn't help but be distracted and looked at the cute smile on Cha Jiu's face.
“Does it look good?”
"It looks good." Shen Beizhan spoke the truth in a daze.
Cha Jiu chuckled and said, "What's so good about it?"
"Of course it's you..." Shen Beizhan finally reacted and coughed twice, "Of course it's the famous bow that looks good."
Cha Jiu understood tacitly and handed him the dragon tongue bow in his hand: "It's yours if it looks good."
Shen Beizhan had a heavy bow in his hand and stood there in a daze: "Give it to me"
She asked for the bow for him.
Cha Jiu tilted her head and looked at him, with a smile at the corner of her eyes: "Of course, if I don't give it to my husband, who else can I give it to?"
She said this in a loud voice.
The people around heard it clearly, and they all looked at him with envy or ridicule.
The prince watched from the side, put his fist to his lips and coughed to hide his smile.
Shen Beizhan felt his face getting a little hot.
For the first time, he felt flattered, and his tongue became knotted unconsciously: "Thank you, thank you."
On the other side of the crowd, Song Li was a little disappointed: "Ah, it turns out it's not for you, brother."
There was no trace of schadenfreude in Song Li's words.
But Song Heng found it irritating.
He stared at Cha Jiu's back, feeling mixed emotions.
What went wrong?
Could it be that the princess has really lost interest in him?
