Chapter 78: The Teeth Fell Off
The National Academy had rented a farmhouse, where men and women lived separately. When they reached the door, they separated.
Xihe excitedly went to find Zhao Siyuan with a bunch of snacks.
"Sister, are the snacks delicious?"
Xihe looked like a lackey and came over to ask.
Zhao Siyuan held snacks in one hand and tea in the other, leaning lazily on the soft pillow, looking so comfortable. "Not bad, not bad. I'm very satisfied."
"Sister, Daddy doesn't allow us to eat on the couch." Although Xihe said a lot, her body was extremely honest and lay down next to Zhao Siyuan.
"Father is not here, he can't see it, no matter what!"
Zhao Siyuan used to pay the most attention to the princess's manners, but since he became familiar with Xihe, he had thrown all etiquette out of the window.
As long as Emperor Jingyuan is not around, the two sisters can do whatever they want.
When the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king.
"By the way, silly girl, do you still remember Xu Chengyuan?" Zhao Siyuan showed off a few more pieces of dried mangoes before wiping his hands clean.
"Brother Xu? Remember?" Xihe had a deep impression on Xu Chengyuan. After all, she had once stabbed him in the ribs with a knife. "What's wrong? Sister, do you like him?"
Zhao Siyuan spat out a mouthful of tea and stared at Xihe in disbelief, "I... like him?"
Xihe took a bite of her favorite pastry and nodded ignorantly, "Yeah, why else would you ask him?"
Zhao Siyuan almost laughed himself crazy. He pinched the little girl's soft face in annoyance and said, "I might as well like a piece of wood than I like him."
When Zhao Siyuan thought of Xu Chengyuan's extremely stupid look, he turned his eyes away in disgust.
"Why is that?"
Zhao Siyuan supported his chin and gave Xihe a meaningful smile.
Xihe suddenly stopped, the pastry in her hand fell with a "crunch", her eyes looked around, and she moved quietly to the side.
Just as he moved twice, he was mercilessly caught back by Zhao Siyuan, "Why are you running? Do you think I can eat you? You are so shameless!"
"Sister, what are you doing?"
It wasn't that Xihe was timid, it was that Zhao Siyuan was too terrifying. Every time he smiled like that, someone was bound to be in trouble.
"Nothing, just help me pass something to Xu Chengyuan. I won't make things difficult for you." Zhao Siyuan showed a determined smile and took out a small box from behind and handed it to Xihe.
Xihe took the box and was about to open it to take a look when Zhao Siyuan held his hand.
"Silly girl, you are not allowed to look at it. Just find a chance to give it to him directly."
Xihe felt like she had taken on a hot potato. She stared at the box as if she was staring at flowers. "Sister, there's nothing dangerous in there, right?"
"Absolutely not!"
But it’s not a good thing either.
Xihe accepted the thing with half belief and half doubt, intending to find an opportunity to give it to Xu Chengyuan.
The two sisters started to eat snacks again.
Zhao Siyuan suddenly asked, "But... why are you back so late? I remember the market wasn't far from here. Did you... go out with the Ninth Prince again?"
Zhao Siyuan was about to grab Xihe, but the little girl dodged and quickly surrendered, "It's unfair! I was tripped up by someone and that's why I came back late."
"Who can trip you?" Zhao Siyuan stopped and asked with a stern look in his eyes, "Have you been wronged?"
Xihe pouted and nodded slightly aggrievedly, telling Zhao Siyuan everything about Jiang Zi. "She was so fierce! She even said she was the daughter of the Jiang family and wasn't afraid of us at all!"
Zhao Siyuan was furious. "What kind of person is the Jiang family? They're just a Jiangnan clan, and they dare to talk to you like that!"
"Sister, is the Jiang family very powerful? They are relatives of the Anyuan Palace." Xihe asked.
"Prince Anyuan's Mansion?" Zhao Siyuan suddenly remembered something. "Silly girl, the guy who snatched the hairpin from you last time was from Prince Anyuan's Mansion, wasn't he?"
"Su Yinghua?" Xihe blinked and said slowly.
"It really is her." Zhao Siyuan sneered, "First, Su Yinghua stole your things, and then her cousin made you suffer. They really are not from the same family, so they are not from the same family."
Zhao Siyuan jumped out of bed, put on his shoes and rushed out, "Let's go, stupid girl, beat someone up!"
Xihe was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth, and asked, "Sister, what if Miss Jiang refuses to acknowledge us? We have no legitimate reason to be our master."
"Who cares!" Zhao Siyuan pulled out a whip from a nearby rack and put it on his waist, looking menacing. "This princess doesn't like her, so what's wrong with beating her up?"
Xihe grinned, jumped off the bed, and took Zhao Siyuan's hand, "Together!"
Su Yinghua was also on this study tour. When the two sisters arrived, they happened to see Jiang Zi complaining to Su Yinghua.
"Cousin, I'm so embarrassed today. Being humiliated like that by a lowly person, I...I won't live anymore!"
After Jiang Zi returned home, she became more and more depressed. When she heard that her cousin had come to Jiangnan, she immediately sent a letter and started crying about her grievances as soon as she came in.
Ever since Su Yinghua injured her throat, she has had great difficulty speaking. Every time she speaks, her voice is as hoarse as that of an eighty-year-old woman.
"You have to tell me which family it is from, so that I can avenge you."
Jiang Zi shook her head. "I thought they were from Jiangnan, but the people I sent told me that they had entered the manor. There were guards outside, so my people couldn't get in, and then... they lost track of them."
Hearing this, Su Yinghua frowned with a complicated expression.
The people living in this manor are nothing more than royal relatives and young men and women from aristocratic families.
Since she accidentally offended Princess Yuanyang last time, the Anyuan Palace suffered a great setback, and her mother was reprimanded many times by her father. Su Yinghua has restrained herself a little.
This time, he really didn't want to offend that group of people for such a trivial matter as Jiang Zi, and make enemies for the Anyuan Palace.
"Then I can't help it."
Seeing that Su Yinghua didn't want to take care of this matter, Jiang Zi suddenly became anxious.
"Cousin! I'm your only cousin! Are you going to watch me suffer?"
Su Yinghua glanced at him calmly and said, "The man hasn't been caught yet, so what do you want?"
"Call them all out, I can definitely recognize those two untouchables!" Jiang Zi didn't think there was anything wrong at all and said shamelessly.
Su Yinghua looked as if she was looking at a mentally retarded person.
Call them all out?
Does Jiang Zi know who lives here?
You must be crazy.
After talking for a while, Su Yinghua's throat could no longer bear it, and she raised her hand impatiently to drive the person away.
Just as he was about to speak, a half-smiling voice suddenly came from the door.
"Miss Jiang, aren't you looking for someone? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Zhao Siyuan leaned lazily against the stone gate with a whip in his hand.
Su Yinghua had experienced this man's cruelty and couldn't help but shudder.
Jiang Zi, who was standing by, saw Xihe not far away, pointed at her, and hurriedly said to Su Yinghua, "Cousin! It's this untouchable! Help me kill her!"
When Su Yinghua looked at Xihe's face, her throat hurt even more and she became extremely irritable. Jiang Zi beside her was still pushing her relentlessly.
Suddenly, a whip came out of nowhere and lashed straight at Jiang Zi's hand.
"ah!"
A bright red whip mark suddenly appeared on Jiang Zi's white and tender palm, which was heartbreaking to see.
"You fool, you dare to stretch out your claws!" As soon as Jiang Zi opened her mouth, Zhao Siyuan couldn't help but attack. "Who do you think you are? How dare you kill the princess? Who gave you the courage, Prefect Jiang?"
"Princess... Princess? What princess?" Jiang Zi was stunned. She looked at Xihe in the distance in disbelief and was suddenly shocked by her own thoughts.
Su Yinghua stood up under everyone's gaze and said, "Your humble servant greets the two princesses."
Zhao Siyuan raised his eyes slightly and took a look. "Not bad. It seems that he has indeed learned some rules from the maids in the palace. He knows the difference between respect and inferiority, and between the monarch and his subjects."
That day, Su Yinghua contradicted Princess Yuanyang and even spoke disrespectfully to Emperor Jingyuan. Concubine Chen then sent two nurses to the Anyuan Palace to teach Su Yinghua proper manners.
Su Yinghua looked unhappy, but she still had to be polite.
Jiang Zi suddenly collapsed to the ground, her face pale and dejected.
That damn girl is a princess?
Did she offend the princess? And she wanted to steal the princess's people?
Su Yinghua scared Xihe when she opened her mouth.
"Is your throat swollen?"
Su Yinghua no longer had the condescending look she had when they first met, but the resentment in her eyes remained undiminished. "Princess, why has my voice become like this? Don't you know? Why are you pretending to be so hypocritical?"
Although she didn't know who the other party was that day, there were only a few things happening in recent days, so she knew what it was with a little calculation.
"Uh..." Xihe blinked, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
She really doesn't know.
Since Xihe didn't say anything, Su Yinghua took it as the other party's consent. She felt even more resentful and stared at Xihe with hatred, which made people feel creepy.
Zhao Siyuan pulled Xihe behind her and glared back without flinching, "Su Yinghua, take your eyes off me, or I won't mind digging it out for you!"
Zhao Siyuan always does what he says. Su Yinghua cursed inwardly and lowered her head in frustration.
"You are worthy of being sisters. One of you dared to steal Xihe's things and was disrespectful to your father. The other one relied on the Jiang family to act tyrannically in public and even dared to speak wildly and kill the princess?" Zhao Siyuan approached the two with a whip.
"Princess...what do you want to do!" Jiang Zi was already scared out of her wits. She hid behind Su Yinghua and kept backing away.
"What for?" Zhao Siyuan sneered, raised his hand and whipped Jiang Zi, "Of course I'm whipping you!"
Zhao Siyuan slapped her several times before he finally felt better. Looking down, he saw the two sisters hugging each other and crying bitterly. It was truly pitiful.
"Princess, this is too much! I want to go to the palace and ask His Majesty to make the decision!"
Su Yinghua and Jiang Zi were humiliated in public and beaten in front of the servants. They really lost both face and dignity.
Hearing this, Zhao Siyuan laughed instead, "Then go ahead, I just hope you don't regret it."
Still asking Emperor Jingyuan to make the decision?
Su Yinghua is so stupid.
Given Emperor Jingyuan's temper, he would probably drag the man down and chop him off without even looking at him.
You are going to seek justice from the King of Hell, you must be crazy.
Xihe popped her little head out, her words full of innocence, "Do you want me to help you pass it? It will be faster this way."
Not everyone can see Emperor Jingyuan. Memorials from foreign officials usually have to go through the Secretariat before they can reach the emperor's ears, but Xihe has a special channel that can deliver them directly to Emperor Jingyuan.
After hearing this, Su Yinghua almost vomited blood.
“You! You…”
The next second, he vomited blood and fainted.
The scene suddenly became chaotic again.
The little girl blinked her eyes with an innocent look on her face. "I was so kind, why did she faint? Was she too excited?"
Zhao Siyuan couldn't help laughing out loud, "Maybe I was so happy to hear you were so kind that I fainted."
The two sisters were so good at telling lies with their eyes open that everyone was stunned.
Seeing that her backer had fainted and the whip wounds on her body were burning with pain, Jiang Zi rushed towards Xihe in a rage.
"It's all your fault! You evil bastard! I'll kill you!"
Zhao Siyuan's face suddenly turned pale, and he whipped the man over, knocking him to the ground. However, Jiang Zi found strength from nowhere and got up again soon.
Xihe dodged and Jiang Zi fell to the ground.
"Miss Jiang, there's no need to be so polite." The little girl pulled her skirt and took a few steps back.
"Stupid girl, get out of the way!"
Xihe obediently took a step back, leaving the field for Zhao Siyuan to perform.
Unexpectedly, there were a few stones under his feet, and Xihe lost his balance and fell face down.
"ah!"
The moment his face touched the ground, Xihe clearly heard a "crack".
Zhao Siyuan was horrified and hurried over to help Xihe up. "Stupid girl, how could you fall down like that? You fell down on flat ground!"
Xihe was stunned and let the other party pull him up, but he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Zhao Siyuan was about to teach the other party a lesson when his eyes suddenly caught sight of the faint bloodstain on Xihe's mouth.
"Silly girl, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Siyuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he raised his hand to pry open Xihe's mouth. "Open your mouth, let me see what's wrong?"
Xihe pursed her lips tightly, refusing to open them, and whimpered a few times.
"What's wrong? Only you can tell me if you open your eyes." Zhao Siyuan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He quickly waved for someone to call a doctor over.
Xihe quickly grabbed Zhao Siyuan, preventing him from calling a doctor. She covered her teeth with her lips and uttered a few unclear words, "Sister... I'm fine. I don't need a doctor."
The look was indescribably strange.
"No! You are bleeding, you must see a doctor." Zhao Siyuan was terribly stubborn about this matter.
"I'm really fine, it's just..." Xihe held the thing in his hand, his expression extremely conflicted.
"What is it?" Zhao Siyuan was almost mad at the stupid girl, and was calculating in his mind what his chances of knocking the other party out were.
"It's just... my tooth fell out." Xihe opened his palm, and a slightly bloody tooth was lying in the palm of his hand.
Zhao Siyuan stared at the tooth blankly and asked suspiciously, "Did it fall off when you just fell?"
"Yeah... forget it."
Xihe was already at the age where she needed to change her teeth. One of her teeth was already shaking when she was on the road. Yunhui tried to help pull it out several times, but Xihe was afraid of the pain and refused. Unexpectedly, the tooth fell out directly.
It's so embarrassing.
The corner of Zhao Siyuan's mouth twitched. He raised his hand and pried open Xihe's mouth. Sure enough, he saw a hole between his teeth, which was extremely obvious.
The next second, he burst into laughter.
Xihe: "..."
I knew it!
