Rebirth of a Lost Nation: Princess, Please Respect Yourself

At this time, Cui'e downstairs had already overturned the table angrily, and the dishes and chopsticks were broken into pieces on the floor.

"Don't want to eat? Prince, please don't be so shameless!"

"Stop it, Princess!"

Seeing him so domineering, Jiang Lige felt dizzy before his eyes and didn't even have time to go downstairs. He quickly leaned on the railing and scolded him, then ran downstairs without stopping.

But no matter how anxious she was, Ning Yunxiao downstairs didn't buy it. His voice was extremely cold, as if it was filled with thousand-year-old ice.

"Princess, there's no need to send someone to remind me. Marriage is about establishing a bond between two families. You and I are so different from each other, so it's not appropriate to force it."

"No force, no force!"

Jiang Lige responded while running, scratching her head anxiously, but when she went downstairs, there was no sign of Ning Yunxiao.

Only Ning Yunxiao's followers were left, staring at Cui'e.

The protagonist is gone, but the show is not over yet.

Ning Yunxiao has been practicing martial arts for many years and has amazing hearing. Even at a distance of just a few steps, he can definitely hear what is happening inside.

Moreover, Jiang Lige should give an explanation for what Cui'e did just now, both morally and logically.

Otherwise, even if Ning Yunxiao didn't care, the news that "the princess who was married to the foreign prince was dissatisfied with the poverty and misery of the prince Zhao" would surely spread throughout the city.

The world was divided into three parts: Shengling, Poxiao and Nanchu. Among them, Shengling was rich and powerful, and ranked first among the three kingdoms.

Although Poxiao is a small border country, its people are all brave and good at fighting. In order to prevent Poxiao from becoming too powerful, Sheng Ling and Nanchu countries established a permanent alliance to jointly resist Poxiao.

The two countries agreed to establish a friendly relationship between the two surnames for generations to come to show that they are of the same blood and share honor and disgrace.

As the legitimate princess of Southern Chu, Jiang Lige's mission was to marry into the Shengling royal family.

Therefore, Jiang Lige went to Shengling at the young age of ten and was raised by Empress Dowager Jiang of Shengling.

A few days ago, after Jiang Lige's coming-of-age ceremony, Emperor Sheng Ling and Empress Dowager Jiang arranged for her to be married to Ning Yunxiao, the prince of Prince Zhao's Mansion. This was known to everyone in the world.

If news of his dissatisfaction with the arranged marriage were to get out now, one can imagine what kind of uproar it would cause.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lige frowned and slapped Cui'e on the face.

"You accept bribes, and usually pretend to obey but secretly disobey. Now, I've ordered you to deliver some food, and you dare to accuse the Crown Prince of this! It's better to be content with poverty than to be rich and wealthy. The Crown Prince has a noble character, how can someone with a dirty mind like you slander him so casually? Yes, this princess's foundation in the palace is still shallow, but I won't let anyone bully me!"

Jiang Lige was so angry that her face flushed red. A sharp look flashed across her beautiful eyes. She shouted "Come here" and gave orders in a cold voice.

"Palace maid Cui'e, a traitor, has disgraced the Crown Prince's reputation. She should be caned with ten boards right here and now. Since she doesn't understand the rules, we'll send her to the Ministry of Punishment after we return to the palace. There are plenty of people there who can teach her the ropes!"

At Jiang Lige's command, a palace maid stepped forward and pressed Cui'e, who was still in shock and had not yet recovered, to the ground.

"Princess, please spare me, Princess, please spare me!"

Cui'e was so frightened that her face turned pale. She pleaded for mercy with tears in her eyes, but Jiang Lige was not shaken at all. He just watched coldly as Cui'e was dragged away and beaten with a stick.

Being kind to the enemy is cruel to yourself.

Although Cui'e was just a palace maid, she was instructed by Jiang Chuchu to cause trouble for her.

In the end, he will end up with his family and country destroyed, and none of these evil-minded people can escape responsibility.

Of course, her own stupidity is also one of the reasons.

Cui'e's wailing was heard outside the tavern. Jiang Lige's expression did not change, but the fierceness in his eyes became even more intense.

"I know many here are not optimistic about this marriage, but I might as well say this today. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, the Crown Prince of Zhao and I are officially engaged. His reputation is the reputation of Zhaohua. If I ever hear anyone slandering the Crown Prince again in the future, don't blame me for being rude!"

When Jiang Lige said this, the people watching the fun in the tavern all looked at each other in surprise.

According to rumors, Princess Zhaohua relied on her noble birth and was always arrogant and domineering, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and her style was to flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.

Now he openly speaks such harsh words for Prince Zhao. Could it be that he has really changed his character?

As everyone whispered to each other, the scrutiny in their eyes finally lessened a bit.

Jiang Lige, realizing this, couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. She knew that changing the outcome of her previous life would not be achieved overnight, but at least she had taken the first step today.

Moreover, the results are quite good.

Unexpectedly, just as she raised the corner of her mouth, she saw the young waiter coming down the stairs at some point, holding the shoes that Jiang Lige had dropped in a hurry, and his voice was so pretentious that it could squeeze water out of it.

"Princess, your shoes were left in my room just now."

The moment the waiter finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Lige, and their contempt for her "stubborn behavior" was very obvious.

Jiang Lige: "..."

"Princess~ Let me help you put on your shoes~"

Jiang Lige slowed down, held his forehead with his hand with a look of despair, and avoided everyone's gaze. He didn't care about establishing any character, and snatched the shoes from the waiter's hand.

Then, with the young man's voice of not giving up, he hurriedly put on his shoes, covered his face and fled the scene.

Forget it, today’s game cannot be explained clearly, she gives up!

After leaving the tavern, Jiang Lige ran into Jiang Chuchu, who looked anxious.

"Didn't we agree to let the prince give up? Why did I hear that my sister angered the prince and he left?"

The person whom he hated so much appeared before him without any warning, leaving Jiang Lige stunned for a long time before he finally realized what was going on.

Yes, how could she forget?

Wasn’t it the same in the previous life?

Jiang Chuchu instigated her to steal Empress Dowager Jiang's token and leave the palace secretly, while at the same time bribing Cui'e to set a trap for her and offend Ning Yunxiao completely.

Then he tricked her into the mountains in the name of "apologizing", but unexpectedly he ran into Ning Yunxiao who was being assassinated.

While fleeing in a hurry, Jiang Chuchu deliberately pointed herself to a very dangerous path, which almost caused her to lose her life several times.

After much difficulty, he met a hunter and was able to escape from the forest safely. However, Jiang Chuchu falsely accused him of having an affair with the hunter.

In this way, not only did the hunter's life get wasted, but Jiang Lige also became infamous and became an "unclean person" who hung out with wild men in the mountains.

Her tragic life also began from then on.

"Ah! Sister?"

Jiang Chuchu's cry of pain finally brought Jiang Lige's wandering thoughts back to reality.

It turned out that she was immersed in her memories just now, and was too angry. She did not control her strength well and pinched Jiang Chuchu's hand red.

Jiang Lige looked at Jiang Chuchu's face so close to her. She looked so pitiful that it made people feel pity for her. But she wanted to tear off her hypocritical skin!

But now is not the time to turn against Jiang Chuchu.

After living a new life, Jiang Lige did not forget the important things his mother told him.

She wants to gain Ning Yunxiao's trust, reverse the situation of the innocent deaths of the people of Nanchu, and kill Ning Luyang and Jiang Chuchu, the couple.

She will uphold the interests of her family and country, and she will also avenge personal grudges and family feuds!

In her last life, she wanted to pay back all the pain and cruelty they had inflicted on her, little by little, in this life, in her own way!
