The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?
Chapter 47 The Missing Jade Pendant
Mu Xiyue bowed to Princess Qinyang again, then turned around and left with Xiaotao.
The two of them walked around the chess game and came to the pitching pot game. The four people they had met at the restaurant a few days ago were all there. Shao Jie called out to her in surprise, "Miss Mu, this way."
Chi Yanzhi was competing in a pot-throwing game. Mu Xiyue curled her lips and said, "Master Chi's pot-throwing isn't very good!"
The person competing with Chi Yanzhi immediately responded with a smile, "Look, Chi San, your poor eyesight is so inaccurate. If it were you, I'd say you should just admit defeat."
Chi Yanzhi glared at Mu Xiyue. "If you can't speak, then don't speak. Ji Erleng, the competition isn't over yet, why are you showing off? It's still uncertain who will win or lose!"
Mu Xiyue asked Shao Jie what happened, and Shao Jie told her the whole story.
The Ji Erlang mentioned by Chi Yanzhi is Ji Shufeng, the illegitimate son of the Minister of Justice. He is only sixteen years old and is a real playboy who usually fights and visits brothels. He has been at odds with the four of them since childhood.
Just now, when the four of them were playing tossing pots, Ji Shuxiang joked that it was a game only played by women. Chi Yanzhi retorted that he didn't understand how to play it even though it was a game played by women.
So the two of them started arguing, neither of them willing to give in, and finally they made a bet, each of them had ten balls to see who could score more.
When Mu Xiyue arrived, they had only shot two shots each, but Ji Shuxiang made both, while Chi Yanzhi missed both.
Mu Xiyue asked: "How much silver did you bet?"
Shao Jie said, "Only the two of them bet five hundred taels. No one else placed a bet."
While Mu Xiyue and Shao Jie were talking, the two of them had already shot two more times each, and now the score was one to three, and Chi Yanzhi had scored one.
Since Ji Shuxiang doesn't get along with those four people, she will help Chi Yanzhi, otherwise Chi Yanzhi's technical skills will be even worse.
The following game of pitching pots became much more bizarre. The arrow thrown by Ji Shu suddenly fell just a little bit away from the mouth of the pot, while the arrow thrown by Chi Yanzhi seemed to be about to pass the mouth of the pot, but unexpectedly the arrow paused for a moment, and then the arrowhead was steadily inserted into the mouth of the pot.
Once or twice was already terrifying enough, and all the arrows shot by Chi Yanzhi would unexpectedly enter Hukou. Even the last arrow had passed Hukou, but it fell back into Hukou.
The crowd watching was shocked by the magical scene and kept talking about it.
"No way, is this a ghost?"
"Wow, how did Mr. Chi San do this!"
"Did I see it right? It seemed like the arrow had already passed the target and was able to fly back on its own?"
"Is there really a ghost? Why do I feel a chilling wind blowing?"
After the next six arrows were controlled by Mu Xiyue's wind ability, Chi Yanzhi won seven to three. Ji Shu, who lost, couldn't believe it, and Chi Yanzhi, who won, couldn't believe it either. Only Xiaotao understood what was going on.
Ji Shufeng looked at Chi Yanzhi in astonishment and shouted, "Chi San, what kind of tricks are you using? This is too despicable!"
Although Chi Yanzhi himself felt that this pitching pot game was too strange, he couldn't lose the momentum. "Ji Erlang, can't you afford to lose? If you can't afford to lose, just say it. I don't want your five hundred taels. I just have the ability to do it."
Chi Yanzhi and Ji Shufeng were arguing with each other, while Princess Qinyang was walking towards Mu Xiyue with a group of people.
Shao Jie asked worriedly, "Miss Mu, you didn't get hit, did you?"
Mu Xiyue chuckled softly, "Nothing to worry about, just watch the show."
The Qinyang Princess and her group soon arrived in front of Mu Xiyue. The maid who had come to invite Mu Xiyue earlier said, "Miss Mu, our Princess's jade pendant is missing. She had placed it on the stone table before she saw you, but it disappeared immediately after you left."
Mu Xiyue raised an eyebrow, "So?"
The maidservant continued, "If Miss Mu accidentally took it away, please return it to our princess. This was given to her by the late emperor. It's the only one of its kind in the world. It's useless for you to keep it. You can't wear it or sell it."
Mu Xiyue chuckled, "So you're convinced it was me. Do you have any evidence?"
The girl who had just sat with the princess said sarcastically, "Isn't it obvious? It was on the stone table before you went over there, and the jade pendant disappeared as soon as you left. Who else could have taken it if not you? You grew up in the countryside and you've probably never seen such a good thing!"
As soon as the voice fell, someone else joined in, "Yes, people from the countryside are just short-sighted."
Seeing that the situation was almost heated, Mu Xiyu came out to play the good guy, "Don't say that, my elder sister probably didn't mean it. Sister, it's useless for you to have this jade pendant, so just return it to the princess. The princess won't hold it against you."
Princess Qinyang had been silent the entire time. After Mu Xiyu finished speaking, she took a jade pendant of fine quality from the maid and handed it to Mu Xiyue. "Miss Mu, I know you must have meant it unintentionally. I'll give this jade pendant to you. That jade pendant was given to me by my grandfather, and it means a lot to me."
Everyone who saw the commotion gathered around, and Xiao Yibai and several other princes also stood in the crowd to watch.
The Sixth Prince asked Xiao Yibai worriedly, "Fifth Brother, why do you look so excited? Aren't you worried?"
"Don't worry, she can handle it." Xiao Yibai said confidently.
Mu Xiyue didn't take the jade pendant from Princess Qinyang. "Princess, I'll just say this once, I didn't take it. Not everything can catch my eye."
The maidservant beside Princess Qinyang was a little angry at this time. "Princess, you gave Miss Mu some face, but Miss Mu didn't appreciate it at all. You just told me not to tell the truth, but I couldn't bear it anymore. I saw Miss Mu secretly stuffing something into her purse and didn't notice what it was. Then your jade pendant disappeared. Isn't that obvious?"
Mu Xiyue was almost amused by this, "Then tell me which purse I put it in, was it this one?"
As she spoke, Mu Xiyue took off the purse hanging around her waist and waved it.
The maid glanced at the crowd and said hurriedly, "Yes, it's this purse. Do you dare to open it and let everyone see it?"
Mu Xiyue smiled playfully, "Do you know that you will be struck by lightning if you slander me? Are you sure you are not lying?"
Words like being struck by lightning can only scare children, okay, the maid said stubbornly: "I am not lying, I am just..."
Without waiting for her to finish, Mu Xiyue rolled her fingers and used the thunder power. It was the first time she used the thunder power after traveling through time.
With a loud bang, accompanied by a faint flash of light, a bolt of lightning struck the maid's left arm.
The maid was so scared that she fell to the ground. There was a burning smell on her arm. Mu Xiyue controlled her supernatural power and only let the lightning injure her arm without burning her entire arm.
The onlookers were also shocked. The thunder came so suddenly that it seemed to confirm that the maid was lying. Everyone's eyes changed.
The lightning was truly bizarre. Xiao Yibai felt it was Mu Xiyue who had caused it, but how could an ordinary person control thunder? Thinking of how Mu Xiyue could casually use ice needles as hidden weapons, he felt that it was normal for Mu Xiyue to be able to create lightning. Perhaps she really wasn't an ordinary person. Could it be that there really were immortals in this world, and Mu Xiyue was a fairy who had descended to earth to experience disasters?
