Chapter 11 Killing the Chicken to Warn the Monkey



"Quan Ji, can't you dress more presentably? Are you going to the Holy Conferment Ceremony or to pick up trash? You're disgracing the princess!"

The maid's shrill voice was particularly jarring, and for Quan Ji, who was sensitive to sound, it was nothing short of noise pollution.

A good mood for the day ends with this call.

Quan Ji furrowed her beautiful eyebrows.

"Noisy".

She dresses like this because she likes it and is happy to do so.

Secondly, she didn't have any of those "decent" clothes they were talking about!

Snap—

Quan Ji casually swung her sword sheath and smashed it into the maid's face. The immense force sent the maid flying, her other cheek hitting the wall before sliding down.

Click—

A crisp sound came from the maid's cheekbone.

It's broken.

Her eyes widened in disbelief, and she screamed, "Aaaaaah—!"

She pointed at Quan Ji: "You...you barbaric woman, you don't know what's good for you...do you really think you're so great just because you're a princess?!"

Quan Ji was unwilling to waste words on a lackey. Her eyes turned cold, and she thrust a finger from her sword sheath into the maid's mouth. The powerful force made the maid feel as if her teeth were about to shatter.

The maid looked at Quan Ji in fear, her mouth gagged by the sword sheath, only able to make hoarse and unpleasant "ah ah" sounds.

She met Quan Ji's gaze and was startled by the icy indifference and mockery in his eyes.

She felt that the once-ruthless and demanding eldest princess was completely different, as if she had walked through hell, like a demon from legends that could devour everything.

That's terrifying.

"Savage... is also your master!"

"It's not a place where dogs can climb up and trample on it, understand?"

Quan Ji's beautiful voice also carried a coldness, as if she had never felt the warmth that the human world had ever given her.

No--

No one in this world has ever brought her warmth, only repeated insults and heartbreak!

No matter how high she stands.

The maid nodded repeatedly, two tears welling up in her eyes, and a fishy smell wafted out.

She was so scared she peed herself.

Quan Ji sheathed her sword and tossed it to the maid.

"Wash yourself clean. When I come back, you'll smell a little strange and be dirty, then you can die."

Her voice was devoid of any emotion as she walked out the door.

A number of people had gathered outside the door because of the commotion, holding their tools and having seen everything that had just happened.

They all involuntarily swallowed, and when they saw Princess Quan approaching, they consciously made way for her, bowing their heads and respectfully calling out, "Your Highness."

Quan Ji left without saying a word.

This move is called—

To kill the chicken as a warning to the monkey.

Even after Quan Ji left, everyone was still unable to recover from the shock.

They commented, "Princess Kwon-hee...wasn't that...aren't you going too far?"

Someone immediately retorted: "Didn't you see that Cuihua started the trouble first? No matter how bad the eldest princess is, she is still royalty. How can she let people like us act so arrogantly? I think the eldest princess did a good job!"

Someone immediately chimed in: "Yes... What I used to hate most was the eldest princess's weak and submissive attitude, which made the empire lose face. I was really impressed by her coolness just now."

"The eldest princess is so beautiful, and he's so handsome."

The maid Cuihua collapsed to the ground inside the room, and remained in a daze for a long time.

When she came to her senses, the room was filled with the smell of her urine.

Her face flushed with shame. She wanted to yell at Quan Ji, but then she remembered what Quan Ji had just said and done, and those breathtaking eyes. She hesitated.

She dared not...

She never wanted to provoke Princess Quan again in her life.

Only she herself knows how terrifying it was.

Even if you anger the king, you won't feel that kind of fear.

She swallowed her anger and cleaned up Quan Ji's sword and the room, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

She was afraid that if Princess Quan was dissatisfied, she would really die!
