Princess Promotion

Yao Chuguang: "As the saying goes, a son will not despise his mother's poverty, and a mother will not despise her son's ugliness. In your eyes, everyone in the Xiao family is kind-hearted. Even the dogs that pass by your Xiao family won't bite."

Xiao Ge Lao's breath was a little unstable: "Princess, why do you want to slander my Xiao family like this, old minister..."

Yao Chuguang interrupted directly: "You old fox are so unreasonable. You said there are bad people in your family and they are crying out for justice. You said even your dog is good and you are crying and slandering."

These words really choked Lord Xiao. If what you said was good, then there would be nothing bad to say in this world.

Elder Xiao panted: "If my Xiao family doesn't hand this person over, what do you want to do?"

Yao Chuguang suddenly smiled in an inappropriate way, and his gaze shifted from Lord Xiao to Xiao Liang who was standing behind him. That was Lord Xiao's most valued grandson.

"Then this princess would like to invite your most beloved grandson, Master Xiao Liang, to go out for a walk with this princess."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the scene was stunned. They all knew that the princess was going to use Xiao Liang to threaten Lord Xiao.

When Lord Xiao heard Yao Chuguang mention Xiao Liang's name, he signaled his grandson to go back to the mansion first.

But no one could figure out how the princess was going to threaten him. If she was threatening his life, wouldn't it be faster for her to just rush in and rob Xiao Xi with a knife?

Although Lord Xiao was blocking the door, he didn't dare to really fight with the princess if he forced his way in.

Yao Chuguang looked at Xiao Liang's back with a look of regret and said, "It's a pity that Master Xiao Liang can't drink much. After a few drinks, he got drunk and couldn't control himself. He stripped naked in the street and insisted on going to Chunxiao Pavilion to play..."

Even though he didn't finish the rest of the words, everyone understood and gasped.

The eldest princess's move is really... too shameless.

Chunxiao Pavilion is a place where criminals or poor people sell their bodies. It looks glamorous on the outside but is actually a shady place on the inside. Chunxiao Pavilion is most famous for the special services it provides to young prostitutes.

If Xiao Liang was an ordinary person or a playboy, being stripped naked and thrown into Chunxiao Pavilion would just be laughed at by others and it would not be a big deal.

But Xiao Liang is the successor of Lord Xiao, and he will serve as an official in the court in the future. His future is at least as a first-rank minister.

If something like this happened, he would not be able to establish his prestige as an official in the court, let alone go far.

The cleverness of the princess's move lies in that Xiao Liang has not yet entered the court as an official and he is a man. Ruining his reputation will not cost him his life, but will only end his official career.

No matter how serious this incident becomes, the eldest princess will be confined to her house for a few days at most.

Even though Lord Xiao was certain that Xiao Liang would be worthy of being enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the future given his talent and the support of the Xiao family, he did not dare to say it out loud.

All that can be said openly now is that the eldest princess played a naughty prank on his grandson, and there was no other actual loss.

But this was even more painful than killing Elder Xiao. This time, Elder Xiao was really angry: "Your Highness, how can you say such dirty words and insult people!"

Yao Chuguang sneered, "How disrespectful! For a veteran of three dynasties like you, your reputation is more important than anything else!"

"It's just an accusation from a prisoner in jail!" Yao Chuguang took a step forward, restraining his smile while holding his sword.

"It's just that this princess was a little frightened!" Changjian continued to take a step forward.

"It's just the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians on the border of Yicheng!" Yao Chuguang was already one step away from Elder Xiao.

"Aren't all these as good as facing the Xiao family head-on?" Yao Chuguang raised his sword and waited for a word from Lord Xiao.

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell into complete silence. After a long silence, Elder Xiao was finally defeated and handed over Xiao Xi.

Yu Zhijian watched Her Royal Highness the Princess gracefully put away her sword and turn away. It would be a lie to say he wasn't shocked.

In the past, I always thought that I was a tough guy who disdained to please my superiors, but now Yu Zhijian truly understands what it means to be fearless of power.

While Yu Zhijian was admiring the eldest princess's courage, he couldn't believe that things were done so smoothly.

On second thought, it was perfectly normal. Who else in the world could stop Her Royal Highness the Princess except the two masters in the palace?

For a marginal person in the family, you go into direct combat with Her Royal Highness the Princess?

Stop joking, do you think the Duke is just a decoration?

At this time, another guard ran over and said, "Your Highness, Kunshan just said that he has connections with not only Xiao Xi, but also Wang Kuan of the Zhongzhou Wang Clan!"

Yu Zhijian's head was confused and he immediately realized that something was wrong.

Yao Chuguang didn't give him time to react and turned around and said, "Since you've already left the palace, why not go to the Wang family and ask for her!"

Yu Zhijian looked at the eldest princess's receding back. His whole body was disheveled in the wind and he even felt like his lungs were leaking air.

In one night, Yu Zhijian experienced what it meant to bully men and women. He was terrified at first, but later became numb.

Her Royal Highness the Princess acted like a bully, knocking on the doors of the four great families in the imperial capital one by one, directly offending them to death.

Yu Zhijian even felt that it was normal for the eldest princess to knock on the door of Emperor Qi to ask for someone.

The imperial capital was brightly lit that night, just as noisy as during the day!
