Dressed as the prince's substitute? I took the throne

"Oh!"

"Snapped!"

The next morning, early in the morning, there was a crackling sound outside the bedroom, even accompanied by shouting and cursing, which made Zhou Chuxuan open his eyes with a face full of anger.

"Can't you let me sleep properly? Why are you making so much noise so early in the morning?"

Xu Hanyan rubbed her sleepy eyes and opened them with some displeasure: "These servants are becoming more and more ignorant. You are just too lenient with them!"

"Oh, forget it! I'll go out and take a look! You continue to sleep!" Zhou Chuxuan patted Xu Hanyan's head, turned over and got out of the quilt, put on his clothes simply, and went outside.

At this time, outside the bedroom, a half-naked strong man was teaching a group of guards and maids a lesson in the yard. More than a dozen knocked-down guards were lying on the ground.

A group of maids were squatting on the ground, holding their heads in their hands, their bodies trembling, and there were some slap marks on their faces.

Zhou Chuxuan's personal soldiers have been busy in the military camp these days helping to manufacture crossbows, muskets, mines and other items, and are not stationed in the East Palace.

Otherwise, if Lao Yang and others had seen this strong man being so rude, they would have come up and cut him into pieces.

Yang Li sat at the stone table in the middle of the courtyard, holding a cup of steaming hot tea. He took a sip nonchalantly and looked at the strong man fighting vigorously. "Alright, Sanpao, don't kill him. He's the Crown Prince's man. If you kill him, I won't be able to explain myself!"

"Yes!"

The burly man named Sanpao kicked the two guards who were entangled with him aside, stood at the door of the bedroom with his hands on his hips, and was about to knock on the door when Zhou Chuxuan had already opened the door and walked out.

Seeing the mess before him, a cold glint flashed in Zhou Chuxuan's eyes: "Why did the Prince Consort come to my East Palace so early in the morning?"

Yang Li took a sip of tea slowly and said with a smile, "Actually, I came to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for someone. Unfortunately, some of your guards don't know the rules, and the request was very bad. This subordinate of mine is straightforward, so he was a little heavy-handed!"

"Here, as an apology, here is a note worth ten taels of silver. Your Highness, take it and buy some excellent supplements to nourish these servants! This will also show your Highness's kindness to your servants!"

How could the dignified Eastern Palace not be able to come up with ten taels of silver?

Therefore, Yang Li's move was a naked humiliation of Zhou Chuxuan.

Zhou Chuxuan smiled indifferently and said in a deep voice, "Just now, the Prince Consort said he came to me to ask for someone. I wonder who he wants from me?"

"It's a maid named Su Qiao'er. I think she's quite smart and clever. Most importantly, she looks quite similar to my younger sister from my childhood. It immediately brought back my longing for my family!"

"I've come here specifically to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for this. I wonder if His Royal Highness would be willing to give it to me?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chuxuan walked slowly to the stone table, sat opposite Yang Li, picked up the teapot from the table, looked at the tea leaves inside, and curled his lips.

This tea-making technique can really be said to be rubbish!

"In the East Palace, there are no servants! I will not treat any of them as servants! I brought Miss Qiao'er back from the Northern Frontier! Her family died in the war, and she followed me all the way to the capital. How can I trade her around like an object?"

"Isn't it disheartening to do so?"

"Oh? Your Highness means you won't give it to me?" Yang Li raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "Your Highness may not know that when I was in the Western Regions, I basically got whatever I wanted. No one dared to disobey me!"

"This is Wu Dynasty! This is the East Palace!"

Zhou Chuxuan had restrained all his smiles and looked at Yang Li calmly. Beneath that calm appearance, the words he spoke were extremely cold.

"Haha, Your Highness, I guess you still don't understand what I mean!" Yang Li sighed, "I brought this brother Sanpao back from the Western Regions. He has a bad temper and sometimes even I can't stop him from losing his temper! If he makes a scene later, I'm afraid he will... "

This is already a blatant threat!

Zhou Chuxuan nodded in agreement, unfazed. He slowly stood up, walked to the door of his bedroom, and said loudly, "This is the Eastern Palace, the Wu Dynasty, not your Western Regions! If this Three Cannons warrior wants to vent his emotions, I'm here to accompany him!"

"Well, Sanpao, I'm a little tired. I'll leave the things here to you!" Yang Li shrugged his shoulders and closed his eyes to take a nap.

"Haha! Your Highness, I'm looking for your advice!"

Sanpao clasped his fists towards Zhou Chuxuan, strode forward, and punched Zhou Chuxuan in the face.

Just as Zhou Chuxuan was about to fight back, a fragrant breeze blew over, followed by a straight and slender beautiful leg, kicking Sanpao's fist.

Bang!

San Pao immediately stepped back five or six steps, looking at Murong Xue who had landed beside Zhou Chuxuan, with a cold look in his eyes.

"General Murong?" Zhou Chuxuan looked at Murong Xue who had suddenly appeared with surprise. "Are you healed from your injuries? Are you here to stretch your muscles?"

Murong Xue took two steps forward and blocked Zhou Chuxuan behind her. She said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, thank you for your kindness yesterday, but what I hate most is owing favors to others! Today, I will block this man for you!"

As she spoke, Murong Xue moved and rushed towards Sanpao.

"Well done!"

Sanpao sneered, and the two of them soon started fighting.

"Haha, I never thought that there are hidden talents in His Royal Highness's bedroom! There's even a beautiful female general hiding there. I just don't know what His Royal Highness's intentions are."

Yang Li closed his eyes again. He was very confident in Sanpao. He was a warrior from their Western Regions. How could he not be able to beat a woman?

Soon there was a bang.

Yang Li then shook his head and sighed, then slowly opened his eyes: "Your Highness, it would be terrible if your female general was injured... huh?"

Just when he was halfway through his words, Yang Li looked forward with wide eyes, like a duck with its neck pinched.

It was Sanpao who fell to the ground, and it was Murong Xue who was standing intact.

Murong Xue's beautiful eyes exuded a cold look: "Come again!"

Over the past two days, Murong Xue had been holding back a ball of rage in her heart due to the military stick. Today, she finally released it. She even raised her fist again with some reluctance, but was caught by Zhou Chuxuan.

"you!"

Yang Li was about to say something, but Zhou Chuxuan spoke first, "My Lord, I will pretend that what happened this morning never happened. If you or your people barge into the East Palace so rudely again, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Okay, great! Let's go!"

Yang Li knew that he was doomed today and could only leave with his men in shame.

Murong Xue then lowered her fist and looked at Zhou Chuxuan: "Your Highness, why don't you let me just cripple that guy?"
