1120. Chapter 1120 The fat princess is not easy to mess with
"No need." Gao Muxian continued to sit on the chair, looking at the third aunt struggling in the lotus pond with a smile on her lips.
"Princess! This life is at stake, and the third aunt is the prince's favorite aunt. You'd better save her!"
One of the aunts who was close to the third aunt spoke first and was shocked by Gao Muxian's cold expression as she sat on the chair.
"Save?" Gao Muxian raised his eyebrows.
"Princess! You are going too far! The third aunt just wants to see what the prince has given her, so it is not a big deal. It would be bad for the princess to do the same thing!" Seeing that there is a crusade against the princess, the other aunts are also willing to participate.
Waving his hand, Gao Muxian pointed to the lotus pond and said with a smile: "This water can't drown anyone."
"!" All the aunts looked at the third aunt in surprise.
The third aunt was startled when she heard this. She thought about it and touched the bottom of the water... She was stunned. She stood up stiffly and realized that the water was only up to her waist.
"Princess..." Pouting her lips, the third aunt trembled and climbed ashore, ready to plead guilty.
"Don't come up in a hurry yet." Gao Muxian raised his eyebrows and looked at her, smiling brightly, "Take the prince's heart out for me."
"Yes..." Third Yiniang held back her anger and picked up the green sandalwood box from the water not far away. Then she picked up the lid from the side and looked at it. She couldn't help but hesitate.
Inside, it was empty.
"Princess..." Third Yiniang gritted her teeth and looked at Gao Muxian, "There is nothing in it."
"No?" Gao Muxian suddenly stood up, walked to the side of the pool, looked at the third aunt in the water and said coldly, "How could it not be, the prince clearly gave me a luminous pearl hairpin!"
"What?" All the aunts were in an uproar. The night-bright pearl hairpin? What a precious gift this is?!
When the third aunt heard this, she obviously didn't believe it and screamed: "Impossible, how could the prince give the princess such a precious gift!"
"Impossible?" Gao Muxian crouched down, grabbed her hand, and squeezed it hard: "Then according to the third aunt's wishes, by virtue of her status as the third aunt, she can enjoy the hosta with the same treatment as the princess?"
These words made everyone think that Yuan Hongmo gave Gao Muxian a good hairpin because of her family background and status.
Third Yiniang almost collapsed in the water and started sobbing: "Then why didn't the princess explain it earlier?"
"Explanation?" Gao Muxian looked at her and smiled, "The gift is always the prince's intention. If the gift is more valuable, wouldn't it hurt everyone's harmony and be dissatisfied with the gift given by the prince?"
When the other aunts heard this, they all felt ashamed.
The princess received such a good gift from the prince, but she did not mean to show off. Instead, she kept a low profile. She did not want everyone to compete secretly and was dissatisfied with the prince.
Third Yiniang was so frightened by Gao Muxian's cold words that she trembled and cried: "I didn't mean to..."
"Okay." Gao Muxian let go of her hand and stood up, "Third Yi Niang found the luminous pearl hosta from the bottom of the water, so I won't blame you."
Her expressions and movements were all spot on.
Whether it was his anxious heart, panic, or gestures of distress for the gift, they were all very lifelike and really frightened the aunt on the shore and the third aunt in the water.
Thinking that the water was not deep, San Yiniang sobbed and groped in the water. She failed to find the hairpin, but her hand was cut by the thorns on the lotus stem.
The other aunts didn't want to stay any longer, so they could only bow their heads and leave one after another, leaving Gao Muxian sitting alone on the shore watching the bleak third aunt fumble for a hairpin in the water.
