Chapter 204 The Crown Prince is embarrassed and his reputation is ruined
Lan Xiyue had just taken a few steps when Mo Yufeng's furious voice came from behind her: "Lan Xiyue, stop!"
However, Lan Xiyue did not even turn her head back or stop walking, she sneered in her heart, what a joke, I am very pure, she doesn't want to get a stye.
After a while, a panicked voice was heard in the hall: "Your Highness the Crown Prince... No! It's your subordinate Mao Jian!" Mao Jian's voice was a bit flustered and helpless, and he was obviously frightened by Mo Yufeng's actions.
Mo Yufeng's voice was filled with confusion and anger as he growled, "Asshole! You dare to reject this prince..."
Mao Jian hurriedly defended himself: "No, Your Highness, this is not okay..." However, before he could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Mo Yufeng, followed by the sound of clothes being pulled.
Lan Xiyue stood outside the door, listening to the noise inside. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. "Since I can't kill you, then I'll destroy you. The dignified prince is having an affair with a guard. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. If this news gets out, it will be really explosive."
An Yi stood aside, listening to the noise inside, his eyes wide open, his face full of disbelief: "What's going on? The prince and his personal guards... No way? I've never heard of the prince having such a hobby before!"
Chuchun and Chuxia's faces were flushed and they lowered their heads, obviously embarrassed by the commotion inside.
Chuchun whispered, "Miss, let's leave quickly. This... this is really unbearable to hear!"
Lan Xiyue chuckled, her tone tinged with a hint of teasing, "Why are you in such a hurry? The fun has just begun." She turned to An Yi and ordered, "An Yi, go get a bronze drum."
An was stunned for a moment, "Ah? Oh! I'll go right away!" After he said that, he flashed and left quickly.
Not long after, An Yi returned holding a bronze drum. He handed it to Lan Xiyue and asked in confusion, "Princess, what do you want the drum for?"
Lan Xiyue took the bronze drum and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "Of course, I want everyone to come and see the fun."
After she finished speaking, she walked to the gate of the county government office, banged the bronze drum vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Fellow villagers, come here! I have good news to tell you!"
As the bronze drum sounded, the people nearby were attracted.
Soon, quite a few people gathered at the gate of the county government office. A woman asked curiously, "Princess, what are you doing?"
Lan Xiyue said loudly, "The Crown Prince saw that the people of Huilong County were suffering, so he specially put on a show today to cheer them up."
When the people heard this, they all fell silent.
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue stepped aside to make way. "Please come in, everyone. Even though times are difficult, we must still look forward. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to perform, why don't you all just watch and let go of the heavy heart?"
The people gave Lan Xiyue face and flocked into the county government office one after another.
An Yi stood aside, looking at Lan Xiyue's expression, and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for the prince.
"Princess, let the people in to see the Crown Prince's scandal. I'm afraid his reputation will be ruined. If he wakes up, he will kill all the people in Huilong County."
"An Yi, spread the news of the prince's actions in Huilong County all over the streets and alleys of the capital. I want to destroy his reputation."
"Uh... this..."
Lan Xiyue glanced at An Yi and asked, "Is there a problem?"
An Yi shook his head and said, "No, no problem. I'll write a letter and arrange it right away." He was the best at writing letters.
Not long after, the people walked out of the county government office with strange expressions on their faces, cursing and full of contempt.
Seeing Lan Xiyue still standing at the gate, someone stepped forward and said indignantly, "Princess, please don't go in. The Crown Prince... Bah! He's totally shameless!"
Another person echoed, "Exactly. For His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of a country, to do such a thing is truly shameful!"
"That's right..." The people shook their heads, their faces full of anger and disdain, but because of Lan Xiyue's identity, they were hesitant to speak and just kept persuading her not to go in.
Lan Xiyue feigned confusion, frowning slightly as she asked in confusion, "What happened? Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say he wanted to put on a show for everyone? Why are you all so angry?"
The common people looked at each other in dismay. Ultimately, they couldn't bear to tell the beautiful and kind princess those unbearable things. They could only shake their heads and said firmly, "Princess, please don't ask any more questions. In short, don't go in, lest you pollute your eyes."
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue smiled slightly and said gently, "Okay, since you say so, then I won't go in. It's so hot, you should go back early to cool down and don't get too hot."
Upon hearing this, the people nodded, cursed the prince a few more times, and then dispersed one after another.
After the people walked away, Lan Xiyue turned around and went back to the backyard, and the gentle smile on her face disappeared in an instant.
She took out the saltpeter powder that the secret guards had brought back and ordered An Yi to fetch a few buckets of water. Then, she poured the saltpeter powder into the water according to the proportions and had An Yi and An Er stir it with sticks.
She returned to her room and sipped her tea leisurely. Not long after, An Yi and An Er came in, each carrying two ice basins, and placed them in the corner of the room.
The ice in the ice basin exuded a hint of coolness, and the temperature in the room dropped instantly. Lan Xiyue felt refreshed all over and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Finally, it's cooler."
An Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Princess, your method of making ice is truly amazing! After returning to the capital, if you sell the ice you make to those dignitaries, you will make a fortune!"
Lan Xiyue chuckled when she heard this, "Yeah, it's going to be hot for quite a while. Those high-ranking officials are not short of money, and this business is a highly profitable one, so it's feasible."
An Yi scratched his head and said with a simple smile, "I will take my leave now. I will not disturb the princess any more."
As soon as Mo Liyuan came back, the secret guard told him about the prince in the front hall. Mo Liyuan's mouth twitched when he heard it. His Yue'er was really naughty. Well, as long as he was there, no one in the emperor could hurt her.
Mo Liyuan strode towards the backyard. When he arrived there, he heard the laughter in the room and strode in.
When Chu Xia and Chu Chun saw Mo Liyuan coming, they immediately bowed and said, "This servant greets the Regent."
Mo Liyuan waved his hand, and Chuchun and Chuxia immediately retreated.
