Xiao Jialan held back a smile as she looked at Ye Jinming's deflated appearance. Sure enough, one thing conquered another, and the one who could cure Ye Jinming had to be Su Xinyue.
Several people left the palace, and Xiao Jialan led them towards the most prosperous street in the capital.
"Chu, stop here."
Xiao Jialan was looking at the things sold by street vendors when she heard a woman's voice coming from the crowd, which sounded familiar.
She looked up and saw someone running towards her. At a glance, she turned out to be Chu Heng.
Chu Heng saw her stunned for a moment, then reacted and said hurriedly: "Do me a favor, don't say where I am!"
With that said, he hid in a nearby teahouse.
Before Xiao Jialan could realize what was happening, she saw someone panting and chasing after her, and it was a girl.
This person, Xiao Jialan knew, was the young lady from the General's Mansion at that time, Zhou Jingyi.
Zhou Jingyi looked around and didn't see Chu Heng, but she saw Xiao Jialan.
She was stunned for a moment, then walked over and asked, "Why are you here?"
Xiao Jialan said: "I can be wherever I want? Do you care? Also, I am the princess of Nanyue now, why don't you be polite when you see me? Do you still think that I am the princess who allowed others to bully me?
?”
Zhou Jingyi choked, she had forgotten that Xiao Jialan was now a princess, a noble woman, but so what?
She raised her chin and said: "I have heard that you are going to marry Beichen soon. As the saying goes, if the daughter gets married, you will not be a good princess for long.
Furthermore..."
She glanced at Xiao Jialan and said, "Your Majesty has ascended the throne. Our Zhou family's achievements are so great that we don't have to kneel before the palace."
Xiao Jialan knew that the General's Office held military power, and it was with the support of the Zhou family that her brother could sit on the throne.
In the past, she and Zhou Jingyi couldn't get along because their temperaments were so different.
Even though Zhou Jingyi's name means Wen Jingjing, her temperament is not comparable to Wen Jing's because she was born in a general's palace and has been wielding swords and guns since she was a child. She is also a bit arrogant and domineering.
But in the final analysis, the conflict between them is still because of Chu Heng.
Previously, Zhongyonghou's Mansion and Wei Wang's Mansion were neighbors. Later, in order to avoid suspicion, Zhongyonghou's Mansion moved next door to General's Mansion.
And this week, Zhou Jingyi is brave and often climbs the wall to see Chu Heng to learn skills.
Chu Heng took the trouble to say that Zhou Jingyi was not like a daughter's family and could not compare with her as the princess.
As a result, she was resented by Zhou Jingyi, and the problem has not been solved to this day.
Xiao Jialan said: "There is no need to salute in front of the palace, that is also General Zhou's privilege, not yours.
For those who don’t know, I thought you relied on the achievements of the General’s Palace and didn’t take me as a princess seriously. My brother is afraid of you and the General’s Palace doesn’t dare to do anything to you, but Prince Beichen is different.
He is the most protective of shortcomings. He doesn’t want to see me being wronged. If he knows that I am being bullied, he doesn’t care who that person is!"
"you......"
Zhou Jingyi was choked by her words, and she said: "I don't believe that Beichen people dare to act recklessly in our Nanyue!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a domineering voice: "Why don't we give it a try and see if we dare?"
Zhou Jingyi raised her head and looked at the two men standing behind Xiao Jialan, who looked extraordinary. She frowned and said, "Who are you?"
Ye Jinming and Mu Rufeng reported their names.
Zhou Jingyi glanced at Mu Rufeng and said: "Beichen's young general and the prince of the Duke's mansion."
She sneered and said to Xiao Jialan: "Has your highness the princess forgotten, how many of my Nan Yue Erlangs died tragically at the hands of Beichen?
Now, you are actually working with Beichen and using them as your backers. May I ask, Your Highness, how is this act different from treason?"
