The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Is it a bit hurtful to say that? After all, I am still your brother!"
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Brother?"
"Really? Is that right? I was born two years earlier than you." The Seventh Prince said with a smile, "You said before that if I serve as your guard, you would pay me. Now that you have arrived here safely, where is my reward?"
"Yes, I did promise you." Shang Ruoyi said with a smile: "Before leaving today, I deliberately brought the reward with me, thinking that maybe I could meet you."
Yuqing took out a box from the carriage: "Little Princess."
"Here, this is what you want." Shang Ruoyi waved her hand: "I didn't expect you to like it so much, take it!"
The Seventh Prince was overjoyed when he saw this, Dongzhu! Dongzhu! Full of Dongzhu! Dongzhu is bigger than a pigeon egg! In his eyes, this small box could contain a mountain of gold and silver!
He took it with great joy, and before the smile on his face could expand, he felt that the thing in his hand was right.
This weight seems a bit light!
He quickly opened the box, but it was empty!
"Wait! What's in here?"
"What?"
"Dongzhu, Dongzhu!"
"Dongzhu?" Shang Ruoyi smiled. "What Dongzhu? Didn't you say that I would give you this box if you were my bodyguard? Now you are asking me for Dongzhu. What? Do you want to blackmail me? Do you think of ways to bully me because I am a weak woman and come to your doorstep?"
The Seventh Prince was speechless for a moment. What he said at that time was correct, but the box was full of Dongzhu at that time. How could it be empty like it is now? If he had known earlier that there was an empty box, he would not have been a guard.
Besides, when did he bully her?
Who dares to bully her!
Her uncle has been searching for her biological daughter for more than ten years. The adopted daughter who looked a bit like her was able to act so arrogant. Now, you are the biological daughter that he finally found, and you are spoiled to the sky? In the entire Western Regions, who dares to bully her?
If she was bullied in the morning, the whole family, along with their members and their houses, would disappear from the Western Regions in the evening.
"Don't talk nonsense, when did I bully you? Aunt, please don't go out and say nonsense. If the emperor's uncle or Jun Zegan hears it, they will definitely skin me alive." The seventh prince begged for mercy: "Don't say nonsense when you see my father and your brother later." Otherwise, he would be in trouble.
The eunuch who led Shang Ruoyi into the palace walked forward, intending to remind her to hurry into the palace and not to delay here. However, before he had taken a few steps, he was glared at by the Seventh Prince and his feet were nailed to the spot.
"You go back to the palace first. I will personally take the princess to see my father."
"놆."
He put the box away and said with a smile, "Whatever my sister says, I will argue with her."
Just then, a man in a yellow python robe walked over.
"Seventh brother." Prince Jun Yunting of the Western Regions stepped forward and said with a smile, "Why are you entering at the palace gate?" His eyes fell on Shang Ruoyi who was standing opposite Jun Yunting. At this time, she had her back to him. Jun Yunting did not see her appearance, but seeing that she was wearing palace clothes, he knew which official lady she was.
"Seventh brother, don't be so naive as you are now. You flirted with women at the palace gate. If the emperor knew about this, I'm afraid he would be angry again." Jun Yunting sneered and said, "Don't learn from your mother's tricks."
The Seventh Prince heard this, his expression did not change, he just bowed and said: "Crown Prince."
Shang Ruoyi frowned slightly when she saw him like this. She had heard her brother talk about the Seventh Prince.
My mother was born in a noble family. By sheer luck, she became pregnant with the emperor's seed after being favored by the emperor of the Western Regions once. For a long time afterwards, she was doted on by the emperor. But the good times didn't last long. Suddenly one day, her temperament changed drastically. She was like a madman and almost hurt the emperor, but considering that she gave birth to the seventh prince, she was spared the death penalty and was imprisoned in the seventh prince's mansion.
If this is true, then the person who made his mother go crazy is basically the queen. Since this prince is born to the queen, he is an enemy to the Seventh Prince.
"Whose family is this lady from? Why are you kneeling before the prince? Where did you learn this rule?" Eunuch Zhao beside Jun Yunting asked in a shrill voice, "Why are you coming over to pay your respects?"
The Seventh Prince raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of gloating.
He looked at Shang Ruoyi leisurely, and saw her turn around. There was no change in her expression. She looked at him indifferently, without even a hint of bending her knees.
Eunuch Zhao had never seen her before, but when he looked at her face, he felt that she looked familiar.
Jun Yunting's gaze fell on her face, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes. There was such a beautiful and charming woman in this world. Just one glance was enough to make people fall in love with her. No wonder his seventh brother stopped her at the palace gate to talk to her.
Eunuch Zhao was about to reprimand him, but Jun Yunting waved his hand, put on what he thought was a very elegant look, and took a step forward.
"Do you know the name of this young lady? Who is her daughter? Why is she here at this time?"
Shang Ruoyi glanced at him and said nothing.
"His Royal Highness is asking you a question! What if you didn't hear me?" Eunuch Zhao shook his whisk: "Or are you answering on purpose? Do you want to be punished?"
"My father told me that after entering the palace, I must be humble. I can say whatever I want to say, see who I want to see, and do what I want to do. I just follow my father's teachings. What's wrong with that?" Shang Ruoyi looked at Eunuch Zhao: "You are such an interesting eunuch. Your master is not in a hurry, but you are jumping around here. What's wrong with that?"
Eunuch Zhao was so angry when he heard this that he jumped up and down: "You little girl, you really don't know the rules. You are disrespectful to the prince and disrespectful to him. How many heads do you have to be chopped off?"
"Are you blind?" Shang Ruoyi said coldly.
"What?"
"I have several heads, can you see that?" Shang Ruoyi rolled her eyes and said, "Who in this world has two heads? You can only ask questions that even three-year-olds know the answers to."
“You! You!”
Eunuch Zhao was a popular figure around the crown prince, and few people dared to offend him on weekdays. This was probably the first time he was scolded like this.
"You, you, you, what?" Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "My father said I can kneel, so, can I do it?"
"Of course!" Eunuch Zhao shouted, "Come here! Drag her away! Give her a hundred lashes!"
Even a grown man could not bear it after being hit by a hundred boards, let alone a woman.
The Seventh Prince's eyes sank slightly: "Eunuch Zhao, do you know who she is?"
