Chapter 29: Using the Majority to Bully the Minority

"Ah! Help!" Mu Yun was scared to death and kept struggling in the water, "Help! I... wuwu, I don't know how to swim..."

"Yan Li, how dare you kick the princess into the river?" Song Yingxue's expression suddenly changed, and she couldn't believe this drastic change, "You... you are so rebellious! Princess Xian will never let you go!"

"Come here, pull the princess out quickly! Someone come here quickly!"

"Yan Li, you are simply lawless and extremely wanton!" Mu Yunzhu was so angry that his face was livid and his voice was trembling. "You pretend to be weak and pitiful in front of your father, so that the prince will be punished and the Jiang family's legitimate daughter will be embarrassed. To the Jiang family, your true colors are finally revealed today! Let’s see how you explain it when your father knows the truth!”

Gu Anxian looked at the chaos in front of her and calmed down. Her eyes fell on Yan Li's face and she lowered her voice and laughed: "Yan Li, do you still want to marry the Ninth Prince? Today's disaster is enough for you. I can’t just walk around—"

"Miss!" A stewardess came hurriedly from a distance, looking a little uneasy, "Miss, Jiu...The Ninth Prince has come to send a message, saying that he wants Princess Nanyang to go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to discuss the wedding."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden silence in the flower hall, and everyone's expressions froze on their faces.

The smile on Gu Anxian's lips solidified little by little, and she stared at Yan Li without saying a word, with a sharp and cold luster in her eyes.

Yan Li straightened her clothes slowly and said in an indifferent voice: "It's my business to marry the Ninth Prince. Whether the Ninth Prince wants to marry me or not is his business. You guys who claim to be well-educated and proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting How ridiculous is it that all the ladies gathered here to bully a so-called orphan girl so that the Ninth Prince can look down on you?"

Gu Anxian's face turned blue and white, and she stared at Yan Li with resentment.

Yan Li glanced at Mu Yun struggling in the lake, and took a step back indifferently: "The person fell into the water in your house. Miss Gu should find a way to rescue her, otherwise I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain."

After leaving these words, she turned around and left without even turning her head.

The maids hurriedly pulled Mu Yun up, "Princess, Princess, are you okay?"

Gu Anxian tightened the handkerchief in her hand and stared at her slender back expressionlessly. She couldn't imagine how an orphan girl who had been living under someone else's roof for a long time had the confidence to become their enemy.

"Damn Yan Li, I will make sure she can't eat... Ah Zhi! Make sure she can't eat and walk around!" Mu Yun was pulled up dripping wet and said through gritted teeth, "I will make sure my mother-in-law teaches her a lesson! "

Gu Anxian turned to look at her, walked over and handed the veil to her: "Is everything okay?"

"Do you think I'm okay?" Mu Yun wiped the water from her face, her makeup was all stained, and said in a hateful tone, "Damn Yan Li! Damn you little bitch!"

Gu Anxian's voice was gentle: "Go back and tell the prince and the princess that Yan Li is bullying others just because he was named a princess. In addition to pushing you into the water, he also beat Mu Ya and insulted all the noble ladies present."

Mu Yun stomped her feet and cursed bitterly: "Damn Yan Li, I will never let her go!"

Mu Ya will definitely complain to her mother after she goes back, and Prince Yu and Princess Yu will be furious. Yan Li has already made the Queen unhappy in the palace, offended His Highness the Crown Prince, and today he has offended so many people. Even if the Emperor has many Even if you pamper her, you can't condone her arrogance and domineering behavior.

"Let's go change clothes first." Gu Anxian took a step back and turned to the maid, "Take the princess to change clothes."

"yes."

"Eighth Princess." Gu Anxian turned to look at Mu Yunzhu, "You saw what happened today with your own eyes. If the Emperor protects Yan Li, I hope that the Eighth Princess can speak justice for us."

Mu Yunzhu nodded slowly: "Don't worry."

Gu Anxian once again turned to look in the direction where Yan Li left, summoned her personal maid, and whispered: "Pay attention to the movements of the Ninth Prince's Mansion."

"yes."

…

Yan Li left the lakeside flower hall, and under the fearful and complicated eyes of the servants of the Gu family, she slowly walked out of the gate of the Gu family, got into her carriage, and said, "Go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion."

"yes."

"Princess." Nanny An walked beside the carriage and asked in a low voice, "Would you like to buy a meeting gift to bring with you?"

Yan Li leaned against the carriage with a cold expression: "I'm not in the mood."

"yes."

The Gu family is not far from the Ninth Prince, just turn two streets and walk towards the inner city.

The Ninth Prince occupies a vast area, and the mansion is majestic. There are more than a dozen guards standing outside the gate. They are all tall and well-trained. From a distance, they have a majestic look that makes people dare not come forward.

The carriage stopped in front of the dismounting stone. Yan Li got off the carriage and walked toward the gate on foot.

Nanny An and Qing Lian followed them and stepped onto the stone steps in front of the door. There was already a middle-aged housekeeper waiting there. When he saw Yan Li approaching, he bowed and saluted: "See Princess Nanyang."

Yan Li's expression paused slightly, and her eyes fell on him. The Ninth Prince's housekeeper was much more disciplined than those so-called ladies. Not only did she have to be respectful, but at least she didn't show an arrogant or rude attitude, and she didn't know how to speak. She said bad words and said "fake princess", as if the emperor's decree to make her a princess was a joke.

Although in Yan Li's view, it doesn't matter whether she is a princess or not, but it is her business whether she does it or not. If others provoke her rudely, then the princess is a status that cannot be offended. Even if she beats people, kicks them into the lake If they go there, then they are the ones who made the mistake, and they have to take the blame on themselves. ŴŴŴ.

"Ninth Prince is at home?"

The butler nodded respectfully: "The prince ordered the villain to lead the princess over."

Yan Li nodded: "Thank you."

The housekeeper was slightly surprised, and although he didn't show it on his face, he couldn't help but feel surprised by Yan Li's demeanor and reaction.

I have heard about these cousins ​​of the Jiang family before, but not much. Most people say that she is weak by nature and low-key. In the past few days, because the prince broke off the engagement, it alarmed the emperor. Some rumors were faintly spread in the palace, saying that since being named a princess, Yan Li has changed from being humble and weak in the past, and has become arrogant and domineering, even daring to contradict the queen.

But when the housekeeper met her today, he felt that Yan Li was neither humble and weak, nor arrogant and domineering. Instead, she was calm and at ease, and had a calm demeanor very similar to his prince.

For a fourteen-year-old girl, this is almost impossible.

The housekeeper suppressed his thoughts and led Yan Li to the Qilin Courtyard of his master.
