"That bandit is shameless. Hugging Father and Brother is one thing, but what does she mean by hugging Doctor Xiao?"
"That's right, I counted, she held Doctor Xiao for the longest time."
"Dr. Xiao is just a江湖人 (jianghu person, a person of martial arts and chivalry), and has absolutely no connection with the Ninth Prince. Why would he treat the Ninth Prince's injuries? It's probably because of that bandit. There's definitely something fishy going on here!"
"I think the Ninth Prince is probably still in the dark. Our Ninth Prince is really pitiful now."
Ji Fengyao, inside the carriage, heard these foul words, let alone the magpies outside.
Hearing this, Xique could no longer hold back. She stood in the street with her hands on her hips and roared, "What nonsense are you spewing? Come on, if you have the guts, come to me and say it. I promise I won't tear your mouths apart!"
The murmurs in the crowd subsided slightly, but then sporadic bursts of even more disgraceful laughter could be heard.
Officials and their families waiting to board the car all looked up in this direction upon hearing the sound.
Seeing that it was that bandit's girl causing trouble in the street again, they all shook their heads in silence.
The Ninth Prince's illustrious reputation will be ruined sooner or later by this gang of bandits.
Recalling her experience in Linwu, Chen Ziying felt incredibly relieved and wanted to burst into laughter.
Seeing Zhang Wanyun return trembling with fear, Chen Ziying generously took the precious jade hairpin from her hair and placed it in Zhang Wanyun's hair: "This is a tribute from before the New Year, which the Emperor bestowed upon my sister, the Empress. I think it suits you quite well, so I'm giving it to you today as a reward."
"Thank you, Ziying!" Zhang Wanyun was overjoyed and quickly gave Chen Ziying a curtsy.
She was of low status and didn't receive many good things at home.
The reason she was willing to stay by Chen Ziying's side and act subserviently was twofold: firstly, it was her father's instruction, and secondly, it allowed her to occasionally receive many things that she would never normally dare to dream of.
As for what Chen Ziying asked her to do, as long as it didn't cause trouble and implicate her, she didn't care about right or wrong.
Just like Chen Ziying that day in Linwu, the magpie could take care of one thing but not the other.
Those audacious bystanders, under the deliberate guidance of a few individuals, have become increasingly unrestrained, arrogant, and lawless.
The magpie was so angry that it was panting heavily.
Wuhen felt sorry for them and stepped forward to advise, "Why are you angry with them? Can you really stay angry?"
"Never mind that, I'm going to find a few of them and beat them up today!" The magpie made a move to push the people away.
The onlookers were so frightened that they backed away, pushing and shoving each other, creating a chaotic scene.
A man with a pointed face and monkey-like features seized the opportunity to stir up trouble: "This is outrageous! The Ninth Prince's wife, a bandit, has allowed her servants to injure people in the street! Is there no law in this world?!"
Not far from him, a slightly plump woman wrapped in a blue cloth also deliberately shouted at the top of her lungs: "Oh dear, my back! I can't live like this anymore! Bandits have come to our capital and are wreaking havoc. The world is going to be in chaos!"
The other onlookers, stirred up by their few words, immediately became indignant and began to discuss and condemn them.
Shang Xiye clenched his fists on his knees, as if he was about to leave.
"I'm in a bad mood today, I'll do it myself," Ji Fengyao said, pressing him down and lifting the carriage curtain to climb out.
Everyone was slightly taken aback when they saw her come out.
The reason is simple: this bandit was just too good-looking, and his eyes were too sharp!
Ji Fengyao slowly pulled two pure gold phoenix hairpins from her hair, weighed them in her hand, and then suddenly threw them, sending them flying straight into the crowd and piercing the mouths of two people!
