Song Wuxia never thought of himself as naive, but now that she mentioned that so-called discussion, he felt that in other people's eyes, he was indeed that kind of person.
However, it was a novel experience.
So he raised his hand again, "Take the tiger away."
"Yes." A member of the Imperial Guard stepped forward, but couldn't drag the tiger away. Several more men came forward, and they finally managed to drag the unwilling tiger away.
Feng Guang breathed a sigh of relief, and she tried again, "Um... could you please hold the ladder up for me... so I can get down?"
The ladder she had kicked over was right at his feet.
He smiled and said, "No."
"……Why?"
"Because holding up a ladder is not in line with my style."
Fengguang: "..."
He could ask someone else for help!
"How about this?" he smiled. "If the Crown Princess jumps down, my men will catch you."
"I don't want to!" she refused almost immediately. She had no doubt that by the time she jumped, his men had already moved aside, and she landed directly on the ground.
His beautiful phoenix eyes revealed a deep sadness. "Does the Crown Princess not trust me?"
It's not that people don't trust you, it's that they don't trust you!
"I... don't trust my own weight," she said with a dry laugh, not daring to say what was really on her mind.
Previously, she had only heard of Song Wuxia from Fei Yu, but that was all she knew. She had no idea about his true power and abilities. But today, she experienced it firsthand. Look at her, she was supposed to be the Crown Princess, yet none of the palace maids and eunuchs dared to stand up when Song Wuxia was present. The people of the Eastern Palace should have obeyed Baili Mo and Feng Guang, but they were all wary of this man who didn't belong to the Eastern Palace. This shows just how powerful he was.
Song Wuxia sighed regretfully, "It seems that the Crown Princess does not trust me."
Wait a minute... Does it really matter whether she trusts him or not? It doesn't matter at all! He's just playing with her.
Feng Guang gritted her teeth inwardly, secretly pondering what to do, when Yi Ren suddenly rushed out.
"Your Highness." Yi Ren stepped forward with her head down, her voice tinged with nervousness, clearly showing her fear. Yet she still said, "This servant will lift the ladder. Please be careful when you come down, Your Highness, so you don't get hurt."
Yi Ren lowered her head to lift the ladder. She clearly felt Song Wuxia's gaze fall on her, but she still tried her best to pretend that she did not notice. After lifting the ladder, she took a step back respectfully.
Her palms were sweaty as she suppressed the urge to back down. At that moment, she was actually quite impressed with herself for having the courage to stand up.
Feng Guang never expected that it would be Yi Ren who would stand up for her and help her out of the predicament. She silently made a note of it and decided to advise the Crown Prince in the future to give Yi Ren a better title.
Just as Feng Guang was about to nimbly climb down the ladder, Song Wuxia gently raised her hand and touched it. The ladder immediately tilted to the side and fell to the ground. "I accidentally knocked it over. What should I do?"
Everyone fell silent, terrified.
Feng Guang's shoulders trembled, and finally he couldn't hold back any longer, "Song Wuxia!"
He smiled again, his smile as warm as a spring breeze, "What does the Crown Princess wish to do for me?"
