I was flattered after crossing

"Burp~ Ouch, I'm so full... You guys should eat more too, little fishes." After saying this, I grabbed a handful of fish food and sprinkled it into the pond.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhengxuan hurriedly handed me the remaining fish food in his hand.

I took the fish food and said to him while feeding the fish: "If you have nothing to do, just hit Zhao Wanqing. After all, she came for you. It would be bad if she really died here."

Xiao Zhengxuan nodded to show that he understood, and promised: "Okay, after a while, when this storm has passed, I will change her identity and send her back to Lingnan."

Hearing him say that, I felt more at ease and responded, "Well, that would be the best."

Just then, a burst of sobbing sound came into our ears.

Xiao Zhengxuan and I turned our heads at the same time, only to see Zhao Wanqing running into the yard in a panic, stumbling, and kneeling on the ground, begging in a sobbing voice: "Please spare my life, my lord and princess! Yuan'er is almost dying~ Please... Please."

"How much is it?" I asked Cui'er who came with us.

"Princess, twelve boards." Xiao Cui answered truthfully.

Wow, twelve boards... Yuan'er's body is really well-built. If I were hit with such a big board, I would die if it were only five boards... But Zhao Wanqing was cruel enough. She came to beg at this time. I guess she didn't want her maid to live.

Xiao Zhengxuan looked back at me...

"Then don't beat her. Carry her back and take good care of her. Yuan'er is injured and can't serve Miss Zhao. Then let Jinxiu pick two smart maids to take care of Miss Zhao." I said, looking at Zhao Wanqing on the ground.

"Thank you, Princess, for your mercy." Zhao Wanqing replied with sobs.

I leaned over and looked at his makeup that was smudged from crying, and I smiled and said, "We are both thousand-year-old foxes, so don't play any Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio with me. If you want to live a peaceful life, just stay in your yard. If not, just make a move, and I will accompany you to the end."

After hearing this, Zhao Wanqing's eyes showed surprise and fear. She stared at me closely, then raised her head and looked at Xiao Zhengxuan.

The resentful look in her eyes seemed to be telling Xiao Zhengxuan: "Look at this vicious woman! Why don't you take care of her!"

Xiao Zhengxuan was silent for a moment and then said, "After Yuan'er recovers from his injury, I will change your identities and send you back to Lingnan." After that, he took my hand and walked out of the garden.

I looked up at him and said helplessly, "Your charm is so amazing that so many girls are willing to risk their lives to be with you..."

Xiao Zhengxuan retorted: "Isn't this king good?"

I nodded in agreement: "That's great, it's indeed worthy of being liked and loved by others. It's just that I don't quite understand it."

Xiao Zhengxuan asked curiously: "What don't you understand?"

I looked at him in confusion and continued, "I don't understand why they would choose to hurt themselves and the people around them in order to get you. In the end, it's all because of you!"

"Huh? What does this have to do with me?" Xiao Zhengxuan looked at me speechlessly, and was amused by my words.

"If you had rejected them harshly at the beginning, they wouldn't have gone to such extremes..." I rolled my eyes and said angrily.

"Okay, I get it. I will sternly refuse next time." Xiao Zhengxuan realized his mistake and nodded seriously in agreement.

"There will be a next time? If there is a next time, I will quit my job! You find trouble for me every day, and you haven't brought me much business..." I complained while walking quickly into the house.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhengxuan quickly quickened his pace to catch up, and said with a smile: "Eh? When the princess mentioned business, I just remembered that I got news this afternoon that your shop in Lingnan is doing very well! You sent a lot of banknotes!"

Hearing the news, he turned around excitedly and asked, "Really? I didn't expect those people to be so capable. I really didn't expect them to be able to continue running that small silk shop. Then you can write back and ask them to continue operating with this model. Pay the employees the money they need, and make sure it's more than what they get in the same industry."

Xiao Zhengxuan nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll send the letter back to Lingnan tomorrow."

"In half a month, the Khan of Northern Xinjiang will bring the princess and the little prince to the imperial city. There will be talks and gatherings at that time. I wonder if the princess's four departments and six bureaus can host one or two of them?" Xiao Zhengxuan's voice came from behind.

"What? Isn't it all done by you, the royal family? Can you give me some soup?" I turned around suddenly and asked in disbelief.

"Our royal family? The princess hasn't adapted to her identity yet?" Xiao Zhengxuan teased.

"Oh, that's great! There's still half a month left! I will go to discuss this matter with them tomorrow and will never bring shame to the country!" After saying that, I happily went to the study to get the silver bills that Lingnan sent today.

Xiao Zhengxuan shook his head helplessly: "The princess is not angry anymore?"

"Ah? Isn't being angry harmful to yourself? Don't be angry, don't be angry. If you get sick from anger, no one can help you~" I put the banknote in my arms and said, "Let's go to bed~ Today is a good day~ Everything you want can come true~"

At this time, Zhao Wanqing, who was passing by outside the yard, had a vicious expression on her face and her eyes flashing with anger and hatred, as if she wanted to burn the whole world.

She clenched her fists tightly, her nails dug deep into her palms, blood oozed from her fingertips, but she didn't feel any pain. She had only one thought in her mind, that is, she must destroy the princess! She can't let her live so freely!

[Half a month later]

"Eh? I haven't seen your prince come to pick you up these days?" Lei Lei asked while drinking tea.

I nodded and continued to count the list of items we wanted to buy: "Yes, he has been busy entertaining guests recently. At the welcoming dinner the day before yesterday, the emperor asked him to entertain the guests well, otherwise how could this big order fall on us!" As I said that, I patted the silver bills on the table.

Lei Lei asked curiously: "Princess, have you seen what the prince looks like?"

I recalled the scene at the dinner party that day and described it to Leilei with great interest: "Oh, they are so beautiful, just like our Xinjiang people, with big eyes and high noses! And they dance really well!"

Lei Lei asked again: "What about the prince? Is he handsome? How old is he?"

I answered: "The prince is the youngest son, about the same age as Chen'er. He is also very handsome and very polite. He is not as rough as we imagined..."

Lei Lei said expectantly, "I really want to meet him."

I smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, there will be a party in a few days, I will definitely take you with me and let you see them?"

"Hey, I don't have a boyfriend yet~" Lei Lei smiled immediately, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. She seemed to be full of curiosity and excitement about this new challenge.

"Hey, you are here to collect stamps... That's the prince, and if he really likes you, you will have to go back to Northern Frontier with him! Your guards will kill you! You are the wind and I am the sand, we will be together forever to the end of the world~" After saying that, Lei Lei fell silent, and a sly smile appeared on my face.

However, this sentence made Zhang Ruxue and Chen Qingyue, who were settling accounts on the opposite side, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha..." Zhang Ruxue laughed so hard that the account book in her hand almost fell to the ground. She pointed at Lei Lei and said, "Little guard, draw your sword!"

Chen Qingyue looked at Zhang Ruxue helplessly and said, "What kind of novels do you usually read?"

Seeing them laughing so happily, Leilei couldn't help but laugh too.
