Chapter 204 The Shield for Being Caught in the Crossfire of the Imperial Examination (8)

As soon as things got lively at Xu Fu's place, the Princess's residence immediately received the news.

The butler hurriedly knocked on the door of the other party's study—

The princess, annoyed at being interrupted, looked furious, while the male lead was enjoying himself with a beautiful woman by his side.

The eldest princess was handling state affairs while flirting with someone.

Being interrupted by the housekeeper was really infuriating!

"You'd better have something to say!" The princess glared at the steward through gritted teeth.

The butler felt a chill run down his spine, but he still honestly told the truth.

"Princess, this old servant has just received news that the third-ranked scholar has already entered the city gates."

"Oh?! You're actually back—" The princess had just breathed a sigh of relief when the steward's sudden change of heart made her so angry she almost fell over!

"However, he didn't return alone; he brought a wedding procession with him—"

The butler cautiously observed the princess's expression, hoping that when she lost her temper...

Try to suffer less...

"A wedding procession?! What wedding procession?" The princess suppressed her anger, her face ashen.

"A soldier just came to report that—" the steward stammered, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"What is it? Speak quickly!!!" The princess glared angrily and said through gritted teeth.

"Yes, it is the third-ranked scholar leading the wedding procession. He is going to marry into the Princess's residence today."

The steward was fearless, hoping only that his ancestors would hear his prayers.

To be able to offer some protection when the eldest princess is angry...

"Married into the Princess's household?! Has he gone mad?!" The Princess jumped up from her chair in disbelief.

With one hand propped on the table and the other pointing at the butler, he shouted, "Quickly send someone to intercept them—"

"If he really causes trouble, how will I ever have the face to walk around the capital again?"

The male protagonist quickly stepped forward, grabbing the princess's arm with one hand and patting her back to soothe her.

He said in a heavy tone, "I'm afraid it's too late now."

The butler added, "We received the news too late."

"They're probably already at the princess's residence gates..."

"Hurry up and go out to stop them—" the eldest princess roared.

She flung the male lead's hand away, knocked over the items on the table, and cursed viciously—

"They're all useless!" After cursing, the princess walked past the two men and hurriedly ran out of the courtyard.

"Princess,"

"Princess, wait a moment, this old servant—"

The male protagonist and the butler exchanged a glance, and then immediately chased after them.

The eldest princess had only one thought: to immediately stop Xu Fu's absurd actions!

Moreover, the eldest princess insisted on having the emperor bestow the marriage upon her, with the Imperial Observatory selecting the date, and the wedding being entirely organized by the Imperial Household Department.

Doesn't the third-ranked scholar know this procedure?!

Thinking that the other party had run away with his money, and now jumped out to turn the tables on her,

The princess felt as if the oil was being boiled over and the fire was raging, burning away all her reason.

When she reached the gate of the mansion, she could already faintly hear the sounds of suona horns and stringed instruments.

"Damn it!" the princess cursed viciously.

He shouted at the guard at the door, "Hurry up and get over there, make that knocking stop!"

"Bring him here immediately, dead or alive!!!"

The guards at the gate were taken aback, and just as they were about to make a move, Xu Fu and his men had already arrived.

He turned a corner and walked straight towards the direction of the princess.

Xu Fu sat on his tall horse, beaming with joy as he thanked the people around him.

"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone, congratulations to you all!"

Every time Xu Fu shouted, the farmer's wife would scatter a handful of copper coins.

Everyone rushed in, making the place even more lively.

As the crowd drew closer, the guards hesitated, looking at the princess with troubled expressions.

"Your Highness, shall I bring down the third-ranked scholar from his horse?!"

The man held a spear in his hand, his face serious, but his eyes gleamed with eager anticipation.

The princess's temple throbbed; things had escalated to such a great extent.

Even killing him and tearing him apart by five horses wouldn't solve anything!

The eldest princess clenched her teeth so tightly that she felt as if her eyes could kill—

Xu Fu would have been torn to pieces long ago for that short stretch of road!

When Xu Fu rode up to the princess, he saw her dark complexion...

With a gentle smile on his face, he announced loudly, "Princess, I have come today to marry you—"

"For the rest of our lives, I hope we can grow old together and have a happy and fulfilling love!"

Xu Fu spoke in a flattering tone, but the mockery in his eyes was unmistakable.

"This is utter nonsense!" the princess shouted. "This is the princess's residence—"

"This is no ordinary family!!!"

"Royal weddings naturally have royal rules; how dare you act recklessly?!"

"Get down here now, and tell them to scatter immediately—" the princess threatened viciously.

Seeing that she looked unwell, everyone fell silent, and even the music gradually faded away.

Xu Fu didn't pay any attention. After dismounting, he walked straight to the princess's side and stood there.

The male protagonist and the butler, who caught up from behind, could only fall a step behind and stand behind the two.

Xu Fu noticed the male protagonist's piercing gaze, turned his head slightly, and gave him a provocative smile.

Xu Fu turned to the princess and apologized in a voice loud enough for everyone present to hear.

"Princess, please don't be angry. Today's events did indeed happen suddenly—"

"I know this doesn't make sense."

"But weddings and funerals are major life events, and I also wish to have them celebrated in style!"

"I'm sure His Majesty and the Princess are magnanimous and won't hold it against me."

Xu Fu smiled gently, but his words didn't sound quite right to the Princess.

"Are you provoking me?! You are provoking imperial power—"

The eldest princess pursed her lips, her voice low and so faint that only a few people nearby could hear it.

The butler behind him quickly lowered his head, while the male protagonist looked thoughtful.

Xu Fu smiled upon hearing this and did the same.

Having expressed his thoughts, he replied, "Of course!"

"If I don't make a big show of it, I'm afraid you'll kill me silently."

"Now I have entered your Princess's residence openly and legitimately—"

As Xu Fu finished speaking, he smiled broadly, turned to look at the crowd below the steps, and nodded slightly.

"As long as I disappear or pass away from illness in the future—"

"They will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly for me!"

"You think I have no way out?!" The princess's eyes blazed with fury, her voice barely contained.

"I'm not afraid to tell you," Xu Fu raised his voice.

"The brothers behind me are all farmers from the outskirts of the capital—"

"Presumably, under the emperor's nose, they will have no safety concerns on their return journey or in the future."

"Princess, don't you think so?!" Xu Fu raised an eyebrow at the person with a smug look!

Upon hearing Xu Fu's flattery, the farmer was taken aback, then immediately cheered loudly.

"Your Majesty is wise, and the Princess is brilliant—"

The crowd, unaware of what was happening, joined in the shouting, one after another.
