The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Princess Yongle's banquet was held in the large garden of the palace.

Before she got close, Shen Qionghua smelled the faint fragrance of osmanthus. When she stepped into the garden, she saw the magnificent sight of large areas of osmanthus in full bloom, like stars in the sky.

At this time, only some noble ladies had arrived, and Princess Yongle and Princess Anle had not yet arrived.

Zhou Lingyi and Zhou Lingfu both walked towards the noble ladies they were familiar with. Shen Qionghua knew that they had deliberately forgotten her, so she found a seat in a corner and sat down.

The faint fragrance of osmanthus lingered at the tip of her nose, and Shen Qionghua's thoughts gradually drifted away.

In her previous life, after she married Xie Qian'an, she had also met Princess Yongle.

Princess Yongle was the legitimate daughter of the Empress Dowager. Although she was not as favored by the Emperor as Princess Anle, her status was undoubtedly extremely noble.

The current Empress was injured when giving birth to Princess Yongle, so she only has one daughter in this life, Princess Yongle. Naturally, she has been pampered and spoiled, which has made Princess Yongle a bit arrogant and domineering.

Even the arrogant Princess Anle did not dare to be too presumptuous in front of her elder sister. After all, Princess Yongle didn't care who it was. As long as she was unhappy, she would really whip anyone.

But such a woman had a miserable end in her previous life. After the Queen passed away, the Emperor ordered her to go to the frontier to marry the Great Khan who was thirty years older than her. She died in a foreign land less than a year later.

In her previous life, she was deeply saddened when she heard the news of her death, thinking that it was the best time for a woman to bloom, but she withered away before she had a chance. As a result, not long after, she was also imprisoned in the basement of Yongning Marquis Mansion by Zhou Lingyi.

Shen Qionghua sighed to herself. While she was immersed in her own thoughts, many noble ladies had already taken their seats one after another.

Luo Xiyao also entered the garden at this time. She glanced around and immediately saw Shen Qionghua sitting in the corner.

She raised a smile on her face and walked to Shen Qionghua. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the palace maids singing in unison:

"Princess Yongle has arrived! Princess Anle has arrived!"

Shen Qionghua stood up and saluted with everyone else.

"Stand up!" An indifferent female voice sounded. Shen Qionghua stood up straight, her eyes falling on the big red figure.

The woman was dressed in a bright red brocade dress, with black hair and red lips. She looked about five points like the queen, and her slightly raised eyebrows made her look even more heroic.

Just as Shen Qionghua turned her eyes away, she heard a cold shout in the quiet air.

"presumptuous!"

Shen Qionghua caught a glimpse of Zhou Lingfu's eyes glowing, and immediately had a bad premonition in her heart. She looked in the direction of the sound and happened to see a red whip as thick as three fingers coming through the air, and was about to hit her face in the next second.

At this moment, Luo Xiyao, who was standing next to Shen Qionghua, moved. She pulled Shen Qionghua hard, and the whip fell on the rockery behind Shen Qionghua, leaving a white whip mark on the gray rock wall.

Just by listening to the sound of the two objects colliding, you can tell how much force the person who whipped the whip used.

Shen Qionghua looked at the white whip mark and took a breath.

If this whip falls on her, she will be disabled or disfigured.

Luo Xiyao said with a hint of anger: "Princess Yongle, what do you mean?"

Even if she was a princess, there was no reason for her to whip anyone at a banquet, let alone Qionghua.

Princess Yongle snorted coldly, clenched the whip in her hand, and slowly walked in front of Shen Qionghua, her voice full of coldness.

"Who gave you the courage to wear my clothes?"

What? This dress belongs to Princess Yongle?

How can it be?

The embroidery maid in the palace would never make such a mistake and give Princess Yongle's clothes to herself, unless...

Shen Qionghua looked at Zhou Lingfu and saw the undisguised malice in her eyes. Her heart sank, and she knew that she might have fallen into a trap.

Luo Xiyao frowned when she heard Princess Yongle's words and asked, "Princess Yongle, did you misunderstand something? There are so many people guarding your bedroom, how could Qionghua wear your clothes?"

Princess Yongle raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Of course not, under normal circumstances, but this piece of material was recently gifted to me by my father. As soon as I received it, I had it sent to the embroidery room and specifically ordered the embroiderers in the room to put down all their work and make it as quickly as possible."

"This material is newly presented as tribute. There is only one piece. I will never make a mistake."

Hearing Princess Yongle's confident look and seeing Shen Qionghua's frown, Luo Xiyao's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that Qionghua was really wearing Princess Yongle's clothes?

Ruined!

This tough woman is not to be trifled with.

Shen Qionghua stepped forward and explained, "Princess Yongle, I didn't know what clothes you were wearing. It rained yesterday and my clothes were all wet, so I had to borrow a set of clothes from the embroidery room nanny."

She paused, then continued, "By now, the eldest and second young ladies of the Yongning Marquisate have also realized that I am not talking nonsense."

Since he wanted to harm her, he naturally had to share her anger.

Zhou Lingyi and Zhou Lingfu were shocked when Shen Qionghua mentioned it.

"Oh? Is that true?" Princess Yongle said lightly.

Zhou Lingyi stepped forward and explained, "Princess Yongle, this is indeed the case."

Princess Yongle glanced at her and said, "I wonder what the relationship is between Miss Zhou Er and her?"

Zhou Lingyi paused and said, "Miss Shen is my cousin."

Princess Yongning curled up the corner of her mouth into a smile.

This is interesting.

Princess Pingning, the cousin of the Marquis of Yongning, actually protects her even more closely than the daughter of the Marquis of Yongning.

"Since Miss Zhou Er has testified, you wouldn't dare to lie to me." Princess Yongle snorted coldly.

"In that case, the embroidery room maid has failed to do her job properly and failed to take good care of my clothes. She shall be beaten to death."

"As for Miss Shen, although you accidentally wore my clothes, you still cannot escape punishment. I will punish you with ten sticks."

"No!" Luo Xiyao exclaimed.

If Qionghua was scolded at the banquet hosted by the princess and this gets out, will her reputation be ruined?

"Princess Yongning, Miss Shen is in unprovoked misfortune this time. Could you please spare her this time for my sake?" Luo Xiyao spoke up to defend her.

"It's just ten sticks, and that's out of consideration for Princess Pingning. If it were someone else, it wouldn't be so light." Princess Yongle snorted coldly.

This means that there is no room for negotiation.

Luo Xiyao's heart tightened and beads of sweat appeared on her head.

Seeing that Shen Qionghua was about to be dragged away and punished, just when she didn't know what to do, a clear male voice rang out:

"Could you please forgive her for my sake, sister?"
