Baili Yuan encouraged him with a smile.

"Don't worry, they won't dare do anything to you again. Because my sister is the Crown Princess, her words are orders. From now on, no one will dare to bully you easily."

Gousheng widened his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief.

He never dreamed that her status was so noble, and that he had the honor of leading the Crown Princess!

Excited, he knelt down hurriedly and kowtowed sincerely to express his gratitude.

"Princess, please forgive me for not recognizing you."

Shangguan Qing smiled and hurriedly pulled the man up.

"I told you not to kneel! From now on, everyone in Dongli will be equal. Your good days are coming."

Gousheng was very frightened. He never expected that the person who led him unintentionally was the Crown Princess. She even gave him food and asked him to call her sister. How could he dare to do that?

However, as soon as Shangguan Qing finished speaking, the group of children gathered around him again, some big and some small, some boys and some girls.

They stared at Gousheng with disdain and mocked him.

"Hey, Gousheng, someone's backing you up."

"Hahaha, Gousheng, you're not going to sell yourself into slavery to this family, are you?"

"It's okay to sell yourself into slavery. At least someone will back you up. Otherwise, all the jinxes in their family should die."

Shangguan Qing felt angry when he heard these children swearing.

She turned to look at Gousheng, only to see that he had his head down, his fists clenched tightly, and his body trembling slightly.

She touched Gousheng's head with heartache and spoke softly.

"Don't be afraid, my sister is here."

Then he turned to the children, his eyes sharp and his tone stern.

"How can you, at such a young age, say such vicious things? Don't you know how to respect others?"

The children were frightened by Shangguan Qing's aura and dared not speak anymore, but their eyes were still full of dissatisfaction and contempt.

Shangguan Qing knew that these children were firmly bound by the idea of ​​favoring girls over boys, and it would take time to change, and it could not be done overnight.

So he said calmly, "You bully him just because he has no woman at home?"

One child said bravely, "Yes, and their whole family is unlucky."

With someone taking the lead, the children began to show off the women in their families even more unscrupulously.

"My mother works for the government!"

"Haha, my mother is the owner of the store!"

"My sister is awesome! She works in the palace!"

"No matter what, we are more noble than Gousheng. There are no women in their family."

Shangguan Qing was completely convinced. How could this group of people be so ignorant? So he asked:

"What's wrong with not having women? Did they eat a bite of your food? Why do you bully her?"

After hearing Shangguan Qing's words, the children burst into laughter, as if they had heard a huge joke.

One of the children said, "Because they don't have women in their families, they are jinxes and shouldn't be alive. All the food in their homes should be given to us."

Shangguan Qing's anger was ignited when he heard this, and he shouted loudly.

"Let me ask you, did you eat everything he had from the past two days?"

The children were not afraid at all, but answered proudly.

"Yeah, why should we give those delicious snacks to these unlucky people?"

Shangguan Qing couldn't bear it any longer. Those things were the food for Gousheng and his brothers. Without them, his brothers might starve to death.

Her face was gloomy, her eyes flashed with anger, and she gave the order in an angry voice.

"Someone, come! Tie up these kids. Let's go directly to Gousheng's house and wait for their family to come and pick them up."

Hearing this, Gousheng was excited, but he had forgotten his identity due to his negligence. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to express his gratitude, saying repeatedly.

"My family is poor, and I am afraid that I have offended your eyes. I beg your forgiveness."

Shangguan Qing smiled indifferently and waved his hand.

"It's okay, Gousheng, what's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you to call me sister?"

Gousheng was terrified when he heard this and quickly bowed his head to admit his mistake.

"I dare not. I dare not address the Crown Princess like that. I am not worthy."

Baili Yuan, who was standing by, couldn't help laughing when he saw this and started to persuade him.

"Sister, please stop making things difficult for him."

He thought to himself that as long as this person didn't call her sister, then sister would still be his sister alone.

Shangguan Qing naturally saw through his little thoughts, so he took the initiative to speak to Baili Yuan.

"Yuan'er, don't worry. I will always be your sister. This will never change. And as members of the royal family, we should be compassionate to the people because they are all our subjects."

Baili Yuan scratched his head awkwardly, but his eyes sparkled with excitement as he grinned.

"Sister, I understand."

This time, he took the initiative to help Gousheng up, his eyes firm and warm, without any disgust.

"Gousheng, from today on, I am your big brother. With my support, who would dare to bully you?"

Baili Yuan patted his chest and assured in a loud voice.

At this moment, the tied-up children had already turned pale with fear. Only then did they realize that the woman in front of them was actually the Crown Princess. They trembled all over and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Princess Crown Princess, please spare me! Please spare me!"

Shangguan Qing knew very well in his heart that these people usually relied on their family background to bully others and do all kinds of evil things, and it was not something that happened overnight.

If we don't take this opportunity to teach them a lesson today, they will probably never repent.

So, she said calmly.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. Just let your family come and take you away."

Hearing this, the children suddenly panicked.

If the elders in my family knew about this, wouldn’t my life be in danger?

At this moment, they were full of regret, especially those girls who were usually spoiled and arrogant. Now they were all well-behaved and obedient, and they no longer had any of their former majesty.

The group came to Gousheng's yard. The wall was dilapidated and the door was shabby, as if it could be kicked down with just one kick.

Before Shangguan Qing and Gousheng entered the yard, they heard a child crying.

Hearing the sound, Gousheng quickly took out the key from his pocket, quickly opened the door lock, and after pushing the door open, the scene in front of him made him heartbroken.

I saw two young children lying in the middle of the yard, their faces covered in dust, their clothes dirty and torn, barely covering their bodies.

Shangguan Qing observed the two little guys carefully and found that they were only two or three years old at most.

When the children saw Gousheng coming back, they immediately ran towards him with their short legs, making soft childish voices.

"Brother, I'm so hungry... woo woo woo..."
