Chapter 21: The Romantic Playboy vs. The Lucky Daughter



As Mingcui was enjoying the infinite beauty of the future, she and Bai Zhirou walked up to the eunuch who was delivering the imperial decree.

Xia Yifeng had already started to ask about Bai Zhirou's well-being and would glance at her from time to time, his arrogance and contempt clearly visible in his eyes.

In a short while, everyone was there.

When the eunuch who announced the decree saw Bai Zhirou, he showed a flattering smile that was just right, which made Xia Yifeng dumbfounded.

"Princess Mingzhu, please come to the front." He said with a smile.

"Why call her? We are all here, so she doesn't need any more." Xia Yifeng said to her harshly.

However, the eunuch who announced the decree did not respond, but walked up to Bai Zhirou with a smile.

The servants in Prince Rong's mansion found it very funny to see Xia Yifeng's expression changing unpredictably and his wonderful demeanor.

Xia Yifeng glared at the group of people and wanted to ask Xia Minglang what happened, but he saw bruises on his face and corners of his mouth.

"Third brother, how did you get this injury?" Xia Yifeng asked softly, but Xia Minglang rolled his eyes and he immediately became furious.

When he looked at Prince Rong and his wife, Xia Yuning and his elder brother Xia Mingyang again, he felt that everyone had a strange look on their faces, and he had many questions in his mind.

But the eunuch who was about to read the decree had already begun, so he knelt down obediently.

Prince Rong and his wife, as well as Xia Yuning, already knew the general content of the decree in advance, but the others became more and more frightened the more they listened!

Bai Zhirou had only been in the capital for three or four days when she was named Princess Mingzhu. Unexpectedly, because of her contribution in saving the Empress Dowager yesterday, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager jointly rewarded her with a princess's mansion on Zhuque Street and countless gold, silver and jewelry!

In addition to this, she actually enjoyed the food and fiefdoms provided by the common people!

This is not something that an ordinary princess can afford. Only princesses who have made contributions to the country can enjoy it!

Another imperial decree was mainly to grant marriage to Bai Zhirou and Shen Zhao!

Xia Yifeng was dumbfounded after hearing this!

He had just been so sarcastic about Bai Zhirou, but now when he thought about it, he felt like a clown.

Mingcui went to see off the eunuch who was going to announce the decree with a smile on her face.

Bai Zhirou stood there and let everyone stare at her. The servants looked at her with such passionate eyes that they wanted to worship her like an ancestor.

But this did not include Nanny Jiang. She remembered how she had treated Bai Zhirou in the past, and had long since hidden behind the crowd out of guilt, not daring to look directly into Bai Zhirou's eyes.

Bai Zhirou had already noticed this old woman Yu. She snorted coldly and shuddered with fear.

Xia Minglang noticed the look Princess Rong gave him, and he covered his face and didn't dare to look at her.

"This princess has received a reward today and is very happy. Mingcui, please give some rewards to everyone on my behalf to make everyone happy." Bai Zhirou said with a warm face.

When the servants heard that everyone would receive a reward, they kowtowed to her with joy.

Princess Rong and Xia Yuning were so angry at her that they almost fainted.

"Sister Zhirou, I told you before that Chen Zhao is not a good man. Why don't you listen to my advice?"

"If you suffer after getting married, who will you tell?" Xia Yuning stepped forward, grabbed her wrist and tried to persuade her earnestly.

"It's not up to you to decide whether Mr. Chen is my beloved. What makes you think that Mr. Chen is not my beloved? Could it be that you know something?" Bai Zhirou frowned slightly and stared into her eyes.

"I, I, Chen Zhao are unlearned and idle in the capital. This is something everyone knows. Sister Zhirou, please listen to my advice."

Xia Yuning still didn't intend to let go. She secretly exerted force and pinched Bai Zhirou's wrist until it turned purple.

Bai Zhirou pushed her away in pain, and her whole body was shaky like a kite with a broken string, about to fall.

Fortunately, Xia Mingyang was quick to support her.

"It's fine if you don't listen to my advice, but you will suffer in the future! Why do you hit people? Sister Yuning is doing this for your own good!" Xia Mingyang glared at her angrily, his eyes bloodshot and looking very scary.

Mingcui pretended to be calm and stood in front of Bai Zhirou.

Bai Zhirou was not afraid of his horrible appearance.

"Which eye of yours saw me hit her? She pinched me and it hurt, can't I just not want her to pinch me any more?" Bai Zhirou lifted her sleeves to show everyone the bruises on her wrist.

"Sister Zhirou, I was just too impatient. I apologize to you here." Xia Yuning sobbed and tried to struggle out of Xia Mingyang's arms to kowtow to her, but was stopped by Xia Mingyang.

"Yesterday you kept saying that if I fainted and was held by Chen Zhao, it would ruin the reputation of Prince Rong's Mansion. Then what about you?" Everyone didn't understand what she meant.

"You and Xia Mingyang are not blood-related siblings, but now he is holding you like this. Do you think your reputation and the reputation of our Rong Palace are worthless?"

After Bai Zhirou finished speaking, she left with the reward and Mingcui in everyone's astonished and surprised eyes. Xia Mingyang quickly put Xia Yuning down, and before anyone could stand firmly, he moved a few steps to the side to avoid suspicion.

Prince Rong called everyone to the study, and only then did Xia Yifeng know what his third brother had done.

Not only did the task not get accomplished, but it gave people a handle, which made the situation very difficult.

"This matter must be eradicated, and those people must not be allowed to stay!" Xia Mingyang's eyes were full of coldness.

This time he took the initiative to undertake the task. In order to make up for his mistakes and avenge himself, Xia Minglang also joined the operation.

He was injured because he was beaten when he was outside.

Those people knew at first sight that they had found the kidnappers, and he had suffered a serious backlash!

Bai Zhirou had no idea what they were planning. She just wanted to move into the princess's mansion with her few belongings in three days.

She doesn't want to stay in Prince Rong's Mansion for a moment!

She wanted to finish something as soon as possible and put her mind at ease, so she hurried to take Mingcui out.

Unexpectedly, I met a large crowd of people at the gate of the yard.

The leader was Lu He, but she looked anxious and happy, and she walked so fast that her legs left afterimages, as if she was being chased by a dog.

From a distance, she eagerly called out, "Princess, do you still keep your promise to me? Will you let me follow you?"

It turned out that she came for this matter. She was originally trying to fool Lu He and had no intention of really keeping her.

"Princess, there are still servants! I can sweep and tidy up the yard!"

"My Lady, I can only drive a carriage and raise horses and donkeys!"

"My Lady! I will perform a magic trick to amuse you!"

......

Every word from the huge crowd was enough to make Bai Zhirou deaf. She swallowed her saliva in panic.

The master and servant finally found an excuse to get away, but they found it was getting late.

Ming Cui drove the carriage and took Bai Zhirou to Liyang Village. The flying dust made it impossible to open one's eyes.

Bai Zhirou knew that she had to act quickly, as this matter could not be delayed any later!
