Xiao Li changed his clothes and prepared to go and choose a horse. Before he got close, he heard a quarrel in front of him.
Her intuition told her that the female protagonist must be present at this time.
Sure enough, in the crowd, Liu Xueyin hugged a woman in pink and confronted her with an angry look on her face.
Across from him was Zhao Yuan, who was jumping up and down anxiously. His round body was shaking and trembling, and he was sweating profusely as he defended himself: "I really didn't molest her. She was the one who stepped back and bumped into me."
Liu Xueyin spoke harshly, demanding justice: "You deliberately stood behind her. You have bad intentions."
The thin man Li You stood behind Zhao Yuan, frowning and saying nothing.
"What happened?"
The guard shouted as the handsome and tall Prince Chen, dressed in riding clothes, strode over.
His eyes swept around and finally landed on his princess: "What's going on?"
Liu Xueyin was somewhat resistant to Prince Chen, but ultimately chose to lean on him: "Your Highness, this man molested A'ru and is still denying it. Please, Your Highness, make a decision for A'ru."
Zhao Yuan quickly explained, "Your Highness, I really didn't do that. She really retreated on her own."
Li You stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, although we are dandies and did flirt with the girl, we still have some sense. If it was a plain-dressed girl on the street, we might have taken advantage of our status to bully and tease her. But this girl is the daughter of Minister Zhou of the Ministry of Justice. Even if we were extremely bold, we would never dare to act rashly. Not to mention that everyone is selecting horses here, in public, and we were beaten before because of the princess's incident. We are not going to lose our entire family just to flirt with a girl."
"Just now, Zhao Yuan and I came here, chatting and waiting for someone. Miss Zhou came to choose a horse, but she was frightened by the horse and took several steps back, bumping into Zhao Yuan. Zhao Yuan reached out to support her. Then the girl screamed loudly, and the princess came over and scolded us. It's truly unjust. I hope Your Highness will investigate this matter."
Xiao Li, who was standing not far away, was watching the show nonchalantly, but after hearing what he said, he glanced sideways slightly.
His words were sincere and clear, and he seemed to have something.
Zhao Yuan sat next to Li You and said aggrievedly, "It happened the same thing in Huilong Lane the other day. We were just passing by the entrance when a woman in white hurried out of the pharmacy and bumped into us. I kindly supported her and even picked up a medicine bag dangling from the ground. Seeing how beautiful she was and how frail she was, I asked if she needed help. Then the Marquis of Pingnan and the Young Master of the Liu family rushed over and beat us up in the street, almost killing us."
Liu Xueyin's eyes widened in anger, and she raised her finger to point at them angrily: "You are simply... confusing right and wrong. This is too much."
"We are telling the truth. You can't slander us just because you are the princess..." Zhao Yuan retorted bluntly. Li You quickly grabbed him and stopped him from speaking.
"I slandered you? I, a woman, used my innocence to slander you? I..."
"shut up!"
Prince Chen suddenly rebuked Liu Xueyin, who was still trying to defend herself: "How long are you going to keep on making trouble?"
"That's all for now!"
Prince Chen turned and left, leaving Liu Xueyin standing there in a daze, feeling hurt, fragile and aggrieved.
"Sister."
Liu Changge came over and quickly supported her.
Liu Xueyin fell weakly into his arms, tears slowly falling, heartbroken: "Changge, the prince...how could he do this to me?"
Liu Changge was also furious, but he couldn't vent his anger on King Chen. Instead, he looked at Zhao Yuan and Li You standing not far away, his eyes gleaming with cruelty: "Don't worry, sister. I will make them pay the price."
Then Liu Changge helped Liu Xueyin walk away, leaving the girl in pink standing there looking at them stupidly, with tears on her face that were about to fall and a confused look on her face.
Zhou Ru: So what? She was the one who was molested, so why did Liu Xueyin cry even more miserably than her?

Xiao Li was choosing a horse, and Xiao Jingyi had not come over yet. The four people came to Xiao Li, but for some reason they were afraid of, and they did not dare to get close. Their hands and feet were stiff, and they felt uncomfortable all over.
Xiao Li knew why they were so reserved. Perhaps they suddenly felt that their reputation was not very good and were afraid of being disliked by her, the princess.
Xiao Li didn't take these four people seriously, but it couldn't be said that he disliked them.
These four men were idle playboys. She was not a good person, nor was she a judge, so she had no right to judge them.
Besides, the identity of a princess was just a pipe dream for her. She didn't think being a princess was that noble. She was Xiao Li, the Xiao Li who lived by her own means, not Princess Xuanyang, a chess piece that could be slaughtered at will.
After Xiao Li picked the horse, he turned around and suddenly saw a man with a silly smile on his face, as if drooling.
When they noticed Xiao Li's gaze, the other three people realized that Zhao Yuan was staring at Xiao Li so intently that he couldn't even move his eyes.
The tall and thin Qian Yu stood behind the crowd and patted the short Sun Buhu lightly. Sun Buhu jumped up without thinking and slapped Zhao Yuan hard on the head.
“Ouch!”
Zhao Yuan screamed in pain, and then was kicked in the knee again, and fell to his knees in front of Xiao Li.
Li You quickly apologized, "Princess, please forgive me. Zhao Yuan just likes to look at beautiful women. Your beauty is breathtaking. I was careless and offended you in a moment of innocence, but I had no ill intentions. Please forgive me."
Although he was apologizing, Li You was also sweating in his heart. This bastard Zhao Yuan always got into trouble, and the trouble was getting bigger and bigger. She was a princess before, and now she is a princess.
Don't take him with you even if you want to die. Break off our friendship once we get back!
Qian Yu gave him a look, and Sun Buwu kicked Zhao Yuan hard on the butt. Zhao Yuan finally reacted and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, Princess. I really know I was wrong."
Xiao Jingyi arrived late. Looking at the four trembling people, he walked over to stand beside Xiao Li and asked, "How did you offend my sister?"
Li You wanted to explain, but Xiao Li took the reins from the guard beside him and jumped on the horse.
"Get up, and don't do it again."
After saying this, he rode away on his horse, galloping at a gallop, looking heroic.
Zhao Yuanren was still kneeling on the ground, and then he began to giggle again: "Princess, you are so awesome!"
Li You hit him hard on the head with his backhand: "Come again!"
Are you tired of living?
Qian Yu stood beside Xiao Jingyi early and told him what had just happened in a simple and clear manner.
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyi tapped his head with his fan in annoyance: "You guys are really good at causing trouble for me. Be careful behind me, otherwise I can't protect you."
"As for the Imperial Sister, you don't have to worry. She's not that narrow-minded."
After he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Li riding her horse to finish a lap. She was in a graceful posture and galloping freely. Her face was happy and her eyes were determined. She was enjoying the pleasure of riding a horse.
Xiao Jingyi's smile deepened: The current imperial sister is so flamboyant and eye-catching that people can't take their eyes off her.
