Chapter 91 He is the Little Tyrant, Xie Yunjia is the Great Tyrant!
If he's a little tyrant, then Xie Yunjia is a big tyrant!
He just likes to do the opposite of what people do, but he doesn't cause trouble for no reason.
Xie Yunjia, that tigress, curses at everyone she sees, and if anything displeases her, she retaliates tenfold!
You can't entirely blame him; that's just how Xie Yunjia is in his mind.
Xie Yunqi said reluctantly, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I was rash."
"Oh, you actually apologized?" Xie Yunjia was quite surprised. "It seems that this little dumpling's words are much more effective than mine, her elder sister's."
Xie Yunjia and Xie Yunqi have never gotten along, and they always bicker whenever they meet.
There was no affection between siblings, only a fierce rivalry between two tyrants.
Xie Yunjia was in a good mood today and didn't bother to argue with him. She hummed softly in her throat, which was considered an acceptance of his apology.
With each long sigh, some people, though smiling on the surface, were already dead.
If she caused a misunderstanding between the two of them, wouldn't that confirm the rumors Xie Yunjia had heard?
Xiao Tao: "Princess, shall we go back to the palace?"
Xie Yunjia raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean 'go back'? This princess doesn't like white. This princess likes vibrant colors. Change your dress to red, or this princess won't play today!"
“Princess…” Xiao Tao was extremely embarrassed.
"My mother always picks out white and pink clothes for me, isn't it because she wants me to be as elegant as white? But I won't, I want to wear red!"
Xie Yunjia fought fiercely against Xiao Tao and the others. Xie Yunqi trembled and whispered to Sheng Sheng, "See? I told you she was a tiger demon. In the entire palace, you can't find a second person more ferocious than her."
Sheng Sheng frowned slightly, feeling a pang of sympathy for Xie Yunjia.
"No, Fifth Brother, I just wanted to wear my favorite color. But does Consort Xia always interfere with me, even with what I wear and what I do?"
Xie Yunqi was slightly taken aback, and looked at the color of Xie Yunjia's clothes today: "It seems that it really is. She used to always wear light-colored clothes, and I always said that she dressed elegantly but looked like a cannon. I only just found out that she actually likes to wear more intense colors?"
She sighed repeatedly. Her elder sister must have been used to being suppressed by her mother, always being asked to do things she didn't want to do. Her childishness turned into anger, and over time she developed such a spoiled and willful personality.
In essence, Xie Yunjia does have a cute side.
After thinking for a moment, Sheng Sheng peeked out from behind Xie Yunjia and said with a smile, "Does Your Highness not like this dress?"
Xie Yunjia turned her head: "What does this have to do with you?"
"If you don't like it, how about giving this dress to Sheng Sheng? Sheng Sheng likes it!" Sheng Sheng said in a childish voice, tugging at her hem and acting coquettishly.
Xie Yunjia was a little surprised and flustered when she saw the little dumpling acting cute towards her.
Her two younger brothers, one quiet and the other always fighting with her whenever they see her, Xie Yunjia has never been pampered by her younger siblings.
Xie Yunjia's heart skipped a beat, and she pouted, "I don't want to."
Xie Yunjia's answer was exactly what Sheng Sheng expected. Sheng Sheng pouted, looking a little aggrieved, then, as if remembering something, she laughed happily: "It's alright. Actually, Sheng Sheng also thinks this dress suits you better, Your Highness. This is the dress you wore for your first public appearance since returning from Putuo Temple. Your Highness has been at Putuo Temple for so long, and seems to have developed a certain tranquility. Sheng Sheng thinks this dress perfectly complements your temperament. Besides, Your Highness is so beautiful, any color looks good on you~"
Xie Yunjia blushed slightly as she was showered with praise: "Is that so? Perhaps it's because I've been chanting Buddhist scriptures with my grandmother every day and have gained some insights."
Sheng Sheng blinked and asked her curiously, "Do my elder sister and grandmother chant scriptures and recite Buddhist prayers every day?"
"That's natural. We had to get up before dawn every day to chant sutras, abstain from meat and eat vegetarian meals. In addition to chanting sutras with the monks at Putuo Temple, my grandmother and I also had to copy Buddhist scriptures once a day."
"Wow." Sheng Sheng looked at her with admiration. "That must have been very hard work."
Xie Yunjia naturally didn't miss the admiration in the little dumpling's eyes. It was the first time Xie Yunjia had been looked at like that. She coughed lightly, raised her head proudly, and said, "What's wrong with that? This is all to pray for the well-being of our Great Yu Kingdom. It's only natural that we eat vegetarian food and live frugally in this place of quiet cultivation—"
At this point, Xie Yunjia paused and frowned: "That's true. This reminds me that if I, the princess, were to wear red right after returning from Putuo Temple, it would be too ostentatious."
Xiao Tao quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes, I hadn't even thought of that. Princess, this white dress is just right!"
Sheng Sheng looked at her with a smile.
A subtle emotion flashed through Xie Yunjia's mind. Could it be that this little dumpling was deliberately reminding her?
Sheng Sheng blinked and asked curiously, "Sister, why is wearing red considered ostentatious?"
Xie Yunjia was puzzled. The little dumpling's eyes were full of innocent curiosity, and the fleeting emotion from just now had long disappeared. Could it be that she was overthinking it?
That's true, what could a little kid understand?
However, it was all thanks to this little dumpling. If it weren't for her, Xie Yunjia probably would have really gone up there in red according to her own whims.
Wearing red isn't a big deal, but there are plenty of people who don't like her, and I'm afraid that someone with ulterior motives might use this to make a fuss.
She didn't want to be scolded by her father.
"It's nothing." Xie Yunjia's gaze softened a little as she saw Sheng Sheng, but her expression remained haughty. "Alright, forget about this dress. I'm not giving it to you."
He sighed repeatedly, looking regretful.
"Take the dress back to the palace," Xie Yunjia instructed Xiao Tao, then turned to leave. After taking two steps, she stopped, hesitated for a moment, and said goodbye to Shengsheng, "I'm leaving."
She waved cheerfully to her, "Goodbye, Your Highness! I'm looking forward to your pipa performance!"
Xie Yunjia waved twice as she walked to indicate that she had heard her.
As he watched her leave, he felt a sweet warmth in his heart and smiled happily.
The farce ended, and the two left.
Xie Yunqi originally intended to go to Yuqing Palace to find Shengsheng and go to Jinyi Hall together, but Xie Yunchuan told him that the little dumpling had gone to play and hadn't returned yet, so Xie Yunqi came here to look for her instead.
As soon as he arrived, he heard that the two princesses seemed to be arguing, so Xie Yunqi sprinted over in a hundred meters.
The two headed towards Yuqing Palace. Xie Yunqi looked at her resentfully, grumbling, "What's so good about this tigress? I came all this way to save you, and I've never seen you smile at me like this."
Sheng Sheng earnestly corrected him: "Fifth brother, I've already said it, my sister isn't a tigress. She's just a little impatient, but she's a very good person. Look, she even said goodbye to me! Besides, she's really beautiful. I like her very much."
