The Crown Princess's sudden arrival caused the guards from Prince Xin's residence outside the shop to change their expressions drastically.

One person stepped forward to pay his respects and addressed the Crown Princess with utmost deference.

The Crown Princess asked indifferently, "Is Prince Xin here?"

"Your Highness, His Highness Prince Xin is here," the commander replied, not daring to conceal the truth.

"What are you doing here?"

"This……"

"Get out of my way!"

The Crown Princess's eyebrows furrowed in anger, and the latter hurriedly signaled her subordinates to open the door.

If other princes came, it would be one thing, but now that the Crown Princess has arrived in person, who would dare to stop her!

And so, Chen Futu, accompanied by the Crown Princess and a group of Eastern Palace attendants, barged into the shop. The first thing they saw was the few remaining glass cups on the display case.

Chen Futu deliberately summoned a servant disguised as a Tiger Guard and asked, "How are the sales going?"

"Young master, some aristocratic families have bought quite a lot. His Highness Prince Xin said he wants the rest and will pack them all up to take with him when he leaves."

The guard answered respectfully.

Chen Futu's expression changed drastically, and he repeatedly bowed to the Crown Princess, "Oh dear, Your Highness, please forgive me, I truly had no idea."

As mentioned before, this batch of goods was to be set aside as a gift for the Crown Prince's Palace, but Prince Xin wanted to take it all with him. Only the Crown Princess could make such a decision.

As expected, when the Crown Princess heard that her belongings were about to be taken away by Prince Xin, she sneered three times and asked, "Where is Prince Xin?"

The Tiger Guard pointed to a room on the second floor, "He is currently in the room with His Highness Prince Xin."

"What about the five-clawed golden dragon glass cup?" the Crown Princess asked again.

"It's in Prince Xin's hands."

"Humph!"

Without further ado, the Crown Princess led her entourage straight up to the second floor.

Chen Futu chuckled inwardly and quickened his pace to follow.

As the group arrived at the door of the second-floor reception room, they heard laughter coming from inside.

The Crown Princess was about to push open the door when Chen Futu stopped her, saying, "Crown Princess, I'm afraid it's too much to bear. Why don't you have a servant announce your arrival first?"

Upon hearing this, the latter paused, her anger subsiding slightly, and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency is right; I was a bit hasty."

After saying this, the Crown Princess ordered Liang Qinian to go in and announce her arrival, while she herself avoided the entrance.

The first thing Liang Qinian saw upon entering was the Prince Xin, who was completely drunk, and the conspicuous five-clawed golden dragon glass cup in his arms. He immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Highness Prince Xin, the Crown Princess has arrived."

"What Crown Princess? This isn't the Eastern Palace, where would a Crown Princess come from?"

Prince Xin was drunk, shaking his wine cup and mumbling incoherently. The five-clawed golden dragon glass cup in his arms was also wobbling, which startled Liang Qinian, who quickly reached out to prevent the treasure from breaking.

Chen Futu stood outside the door, secretly observing the Crown Princess's expression. Sure enough, she showed some disgust, and her fists clenched tightly.

The reason we stopped her from entering was because we were worried that Prince Xin would back down. So we decided to stop her first and let the servants go in first. Given Prince Xin's cruel nature, he would definitely not take the Crown Prince's entourage seriously.

And guessed right.

Next, Liang Qinian pleaded with Prince Xin, insisting that the Crown Princess had personally arrived.

Annoyed by the commotion, Prince Xin grabbed Liang Qinian by the collar and, hiccuping, cursed in a sinister tone, "What are you? A lackey of the Liang family, daring to shout at me like that? Believe me or not, I'll chop off your head!"

Liang Qinian was speechless; this Prince Xin was simply beyond redemption.

"Your Highness, I would not dare to lie to you. The Crown Princess is outside. She has come for the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon Glazed Lamp. Please hurry."

"So what if she's here! Do you expect me to kowtow and pay my respects to her? If you have nothing to do, get lost and don't disturb my drinking."

Prince Xin shoved Liang Qinian so hard he fell on his backside, then grabbed a brothel woman who was too frightened to speak and laughed heartily as they continued their feasting and revelry.

The Crown Princess outside the door was now unable to control her anger, her expression almost out of control. The powerful guards from the Prince Xin's mansion outside were all trembling with fear, wishing they could rush in and drag their master away. However, with the Crown Princess in front of them, they dared not make any rash moves.

Seeing that Prince Xin in the room was becoming increasingly outrageous, a powerful figure braced himself and asked, "Your Highness, should I go and inform him?"

"No need. I am very curious about how His Highness Prince Xin views me, that he would treat me with such disdain."

"Prince Xin was just drunk, please don't be offended..."

"What are you doing, a servant gossiping? Get out of here!"

"Here."

The powerful figure had no choice but to retreat.

Over time, the sounds in the room became increasingly unbearable. The Crown Princess took a deep breath and left.

Chen Futu thought to himself, "This won't do. She's already here. We can't let the show end halfway through." So he secretly gave a look to the next room. The next second, Qiwen launched a gust of wind, and there was a cracking sound, followed by a commotion in the room, mixed with the screams of the women.

"My five-clawed golden dragon!"

King Xin let out a roar.

The Crown Princess was shocked and hurriedly turned around and went into the room. She saw that the perfectly good five-clawed golden dragon glass cup was shattered all over the floor. The girls in the brothel were so frightened that they knelt all over the floor, not daring to breathe.

Liang Qinian was also terrified and struggled to run to the Crown Princess, "Master, look at this..."

The Crown Princess stared intently at the debris scattered on the ground, then looked at Prince Xin, her clear eyes flashing with an uncontrollable murderous intent.

When Prince Xin saw a group of people barging in, he rubbed his eyes and stared at the Crown Princess for a while before he came to his senses. "Crown Princess? It really is the Crown Princess."

"Prince Xin, you are very good." The Crown Princess suppressed her anger and spoke with a cold laugh, neither warm nor cold.

Prince Xin waved his hand swayingly, "Why aren't you staying in the Eastern Palace? What are you doing here? Are you here to buy glass too?"

He wasn't particularly afraid of the Crown Princess. He was of royal blood and a prince. As long as the Crown Prince didn't ascend the throne, the Crown Princess's status couldn't suppress them, the princes in power. As for their usual behavior, it was all out of respect for the Crown Prince.

The Crown Princess asked quietly, "You smashed the Golden Dragon Glazed Cup."

"It was a slip of the hand, Your Highness, please forgive me. I didn't mean to."

"Do you know that this treasure was a gift presented to the Emperor and the Crown Prince by another country?" the Crown Princess questioned sternly.

"It's alright, Father won't blame me. I'll explain this myself. Crown Princess, you can leave now."

Prince Xin casually waved his hand to dismiss the Crown Princess.

Chen Futu clicked his tongue in amazement. This guy was incredibly audacious; no wonder he had done so many inhumane things.

Fortunately, the Crown Princess harbored resentment towards him. The seed of hatred was sown, and the next step was to nurture it, forcing the Crown Princess to take action against these princes.

"Your Highness, you are being extremely rude."

The innate swordsman beside the Crown Princess spoke up, clearly displeased.

Prince Xin paused in his hand as he reached for the wine cup. Then, Tuo, his face flushed, staggered over, pointed at the swordsman, and muttered, reeking of alcohol, "What kind of person are you? How dare you speak to me like that? Believe me, I'll kill your whole family!"
