The two were shocked at first, but when they thought that she was just a person from the cold palace, with no power, no influence, and no background in the palace, they no longer had the worry that they had just had about being seen.
"Meet the Ninth Princess."
The two palace maids only bowed slightly and did not salute, which would be extremely disrespectful to any master in the palace.
But the two of them didn't think there was anything wrong.
Rong Xi also smiled gently, "Two sisters, where are you going? Looking at this direction, it can't be Jinghe Palace, right?"
Although the two palace maids were from the Fifth Princess's palace, because of their low status, they had never been called "sister" in the palace.
When Rong Xi called her sister, she instantly felt that her status had been elevated a lot.
One of the palace maids raised her chin slightly and walked forward a few steps to Rong Xi's side.
"The Ninth Princess is quite clever. The two of us have some business to attend to in the direction of Jinghe Palace."
These two people even gave up calling themselves slaves, as if this would make their status equal.
In fact, they had also heard some rumors about the Ninth Princess, saying that she was weak and could be bullied, and was being tortured by the eunuchs and palace maids over there.
Now that she was being so flattering, they probably had something to ask of them, and the two of them became more and more arrogant.
Rong Xi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a hint of amusement flashed across his eyes.
"Have you heard of Marquis Jing'an? If you can give me some information, I have some good stuff for you to play cards with."
Leaf cards were the favorite toy of palace maids and eunuchs in their spare time, but this thing cost a lot of money, so many people couldn't afford to play them even though they wanted to.
It just so happened that the two people in front of her were also somewhat skilled in playing leaf cards, and their eyes lit up when they heard her say that.
But they were somewhat wary in their hearts. They worked in the Fifth Princess's palace and naturally knew that the Fifth Princess and Marquis Jing'an had a close relationship. Perhaps in the near future, the two would get married.
"Ninth Princess, why are you asking this?"
Rong Xi pretended to be shy, looked around to see if there was anyone around before whispering to the two of them, "I heard that Marquis Jing'an is incredibly handsome, I... I..."
The two of them understood instantly that the girl was in love.
These two knew what to say and what not to say. Since the Marquis of Jing'an was related to the Fifth Princess, they didn't dare to speak rashly, but they were tempted by the benefits the Ninth Princess mentioned.
"Ninth Princess, we are risking our lives to tell you this news. Please don't tell anyone else."
"That's natural."
"I still hope that the Ninth Princess will keep her promise."
"must."
The three of them walked and talked as they went.
The two palace maids did not reveal any important news, but just said that the title of Jing'an Marquis Ke Yihan was hereditary, and that he himself was quite talented, so they admired him quite a lot.
They even revealed the relationship between the Fifth Princess and Marquis Jing'an intentionally or unintentionally.
Rong Xi listened to what they said seriously, and soon arrived outside the cold palace.
"Ninth Princess, why did you bring us here?"
The two of them obviously had not yet realized the danger was coming, and their tone was even a little cold, as if they were blaming Rong Xi for bringing them to such an unlucky place.
"My two elder sisters know that I have been living in the cold palace before, so naturally I am hiding in the cold palace."
The two of them hesitated for a while before following in, but as soon as they entered the door, one of the palace maids was kicked in by Rong Xi.
The palace maid had obviously not reacted yet, and she had scratches on her hands and face because she failed to dodge in time.
The other maid looked at Rong Xi in disbelief, "What are you doing? We are the Fifth Princess's people. How dare you do this to me?"
She pointed at Rong Xi with one hand, trying to use her aura to scare away the Ninth Princess who was approaching her step by step.
"I hate it most when people point their fingers at me."
There was a crisp sound of "crack", the sound of someone's finger bones breaking.
Before she could shout out, Rong Xi quickly stuffed a piece of rag that he had picked up at some point into her mouth.
The rag looked like a foot binding or a handkerchief, with some dust and stains on it. When the rag was stuffed into her mouth, she felt a foul smell coming from her nose, almost suffocating her.
The heart-wrenching howls turned into whimpers.
Her eyes were filled with resentment and questioning as she stared at Rong Xi.
However, the severe pain made her almost faint, her body could not bear such torture. Despite this, one of her hands was still tightly held by the bitch, unable to break free.
The person who fell to the ground finally stood up. Compared to the person in Rong Xi's hands, her injuries were much lighter.
She was still trying to scare Jiang Rongxi away by saying that she was from the Fifth Princess's Palace. She stood aside with great momentum and had no intention of stepping forward to rescue her companions.
"Ninth Princess, we are from the Fifth Princess's palace. You hurt us, have you ever thought about the consequences? You have to look at the owner before you beat the dog! What you did is disrespectful to the Fifth Princess!"
The palace maid spoke arrogantly, almost forgetting that she was just a servant and the other party was the noble princess.
Rong Xi sneered: "Hmph! So what if I beat you dogs? Do you want this princess to apologize to you?" A trace of disdain flashed in her eyes. She was very dissatisfied with this kind of bullying behavior.
Rong Xi casually threw the person in her hand aside. She held a trace of golden mental power in her hand and with just a light tap, the person on the ground could not move.
And she walked towards the other person who was still calling out.
The maid, originally fierce and ferocious, was frightened by the aura suddenly displayed by the other party. She involuntarily stepped back, and her eyes gradually lost their fierceness, replaced by fear and panic. Her steps became cautious, as if she was afraid of angering the person in front of her.
From ferocious, to cautious, to begging for mercy, and then to screaming heart-wrenchingly.
"Nine, Ninth Princess...please let us go. We won't tell the Fifth Princess what happened today."
The main reason was that they didn't dare to say it at all. If the Fifth Princess knew that they had abandoned their official business and come here, they would probably be in danger of their lives.
However, the other party did not stop, but continued to approach. The palace maid's fear continued to escalate, and she let out a heart-wrenching scream, hoping to attract the attention of people around her.
But from the beginning, the commotion here was quite big, but no one came to check. They saw that the people here had been captured by the Ninth Princess, and it was a trap set by the Ninth Princess in advance.
But how is this possible? How could the Ninth Princess know that they would come here today?
"Why don't you call yourself "I" anymore? Don't you want me to call you sister? Otherwise, I'll let you be the princess."
"I dare not, I really don't dare. Princess Nine, please forgive me."
The palace maid was already kneeling on the ground, kowtowed to Rong Xi repeatedly.
How could Rong Xi let her go? He picked up a piece of firewood soaked in snow and was about to hit her on the head, but the next moment he heard a noise coming from the door.
Rong Xi looked back...
