Chapter 466 Scare You to Death (3)
There was also a sigh from the princes' table. Prince Li smiled meaningfully: "This Miss Shen is quite vindictive."
Princess Ming An stared at Shen Miao intently. Facing her sharp gaze, Shen Miao only smiled faintly. Helpless, Princess Ming An could only look to Huangfu Hao for help.
Huangfu Hao coughed lightly, a bit angry at Shen Miao's indifference. Princess Ming'an represented the face of the Great Qin, and he couldn't let Princess Ming'an be unhappy. So he looked at Emperor Wenhui, then glanced at Shen Miao and said, "It's just a game. Why are the young ladies of Mingqi so persistent?"
Emperor Wenhui looked at the Shen family.
Chen Xin and Luo Xueyan drank their tea, seemingly oblivious to the words spoken by their superiors. Chen Qiu and Luo Ling gazed at their superiors with composure, but remained silent. Feng Anning and Luo Tan, on the other hand, stared intently at Princess Ming'an, their gazes filled with indignation.
The Shen family's attitude was very clear. They were not going to let it go. They were openly arguing with Princess Ming'an. Chen Xin was also angry. Just now, Shen Miao was aggressively pressured by Princess Ming'an and had no way out. Now it was naturally Princess Ming'an's turn to taste the same feeling. Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. When Princess Ming'an was calculating others, she should have thought about how it felt to be calculated by others. Since the Shen family has been placed on the cusp of the storm, and since the Qin people had been targeting the Shen family from the beginning, what was there to worry about? Once Chen Xin's temper flared up, he thought that the barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Even if he shot Princess Ming'an to death today, so be it.
Emperor Wenhui saw Chen Xin's attitude and understood. Chen Xin was always protective, especially when it came to Shen Miao. Since Chen Xin wanted to be the target himself, Emperor Wenhui was happy to see it happen. Moreover, he did not like Princess Ming'an's arrogant disposition that disregarded Ming Qi. He wanted to dampen Princess Ming'an's prestige, so he smiled and said to Huangfu Hao, "It's just a game between children. Why should the Crown Prince be so worried? Since they are having fun, I will not stop them."
Huangfu Hao hadn't expected the Shen family to be such a stubborn opponent, nor had he expected the old fox Emperor Wenhui to sit back and watch the fight unfold. For a moment, he was at a loss for what to do. Furthermore, the ministers of Mingqi were gradually growing bolder and began whispering among themselves. If they truly refused, the Qin State would truly lose face and dignity. He glared at Princess Ming'an in a warning, saying, "Ming'an, since you're the one who brought it up, play along with Miss Shen to the end." He glanced at Shen Miao again, adding meaningfully, "Since Miss Shen is just playing around, she won't hurt you."
The implication was that if anything happened to Princess Ming An, Shen Miao would definitely pay the price.
Shen Miao only smiled after hearing such threatening words: "Don't worry, Your Highness. Since we haven't signed a life and death agreement, I will definitely not hurt Your Highness."
The more she spoke, the more uneasy Princess Ming'an became. But now she was in a difficult position, so she had no choice but to do as Shen Miao said. Walking to the other side, Princess Ming'an's eyes were like knives, slicing into Shen Miao's body. Suddenly, she thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she sneered, "But Miss Shen, not everyone can pull my bow. I'm afraid you..."
Before the three words “I can’t pull it up” came out of his mouth, he saw Shen Miao had already easily pulled up the bow.
Unlike Princess Ming'an, who struggled to pull the bow, Shen Miao's posture was extremely graceful, and she pulled it very easily, as if this bow had been with her for decades, and she was very skilled in using it. She smiled at Princess Ming'an, and meeting her incredulous gaze, she said lightly, "Good bow, Your Highness's bow, I use it very smoothly too. Thank you very much."
