Help! The innocent prince always tries to seduce me clumsily

Chapter 27: A sentence in exchange for a pair of legs

Si Chunyao immediately blocked the road with her maids and said smugly, "What? Are you scared now? I'm telling you, before my brother comes, if you make amends as I said before and give me the necklace in your hand, this matter will be over. Otherwise, don't even think about escaping like this."

Chu Shitong was silent. Perhaps he should not have sent Rushuang out last night. He should have let Rushuang kick this woman into a paraplegic so that he could vent his anger.

Bishui stood in front of Chu Shitong and said, "Do you really think my master is afraid of you? I advise you to make way if you know what's best for you! Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences if my master gets angry!"

Si Chunyao laughed wildly, "I'm not leaving yet. I want to see who in the capital will not give face to my brother!"

Bishui was anxious, but Si Chunyao brought three maids to block the way, so she asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, how about I call Brother Jishu in?"

Chu Shitong shook his head, "No need."

Not to mention calling him in, it would be difficult for Bishui to even get out in this situation.

Si Chunyao continued to attack, and became bolder because of Chu Shitong's silence.

"My patience is limited. It doesn't matter if you don't apologize now for the sake of face. It will be the same when my brother comes. It depends on whether you want to embarrass yourself in front of my brother. I'm afraid that if the news gets out, you will be so scared that you won't even dare to leave the house in the future."

Chu Shitong didn't say anything but was just thinking about what to say to Si Jingli later.

Bishui was so angry that she was about to have a verbal battle with Si Chunyao, but was stopped by Chu Shitong.

"It doesn't matter, he's just an idiot."

To deal with Si Chunyao, Chu Shitong only needed one sentence.

"How dare you say that to me?" Si Chunyao was irritated by Chu Shitong and ordered, "Go over and slap me in the face!"

The maids beside her were a little hesitant. If it was a woman, it would be fine, but after all, Chu Shitong looked like a man, and no one could guarantee that Chu Shitong would not fight back and knock them down.

Si Chunyao became even angrier when she saw that the maid didn't move.

"If you don't take action now, my brother will come and drag you all out and beat you to death!"

Several maids were forced to muster up their courage and walk towards Chu Shitong together. Bishui stretched out her hand to block Chu Shitong, and the waiters in the store also quietly took up sticks in secret. If Si Chunyao's maid really dared to take action, they would no longer pretend and immediately step forward to protect Chu Shitong.

While everyone was worried and anxious, Chu Shitong stood still without even frowning.

She looked calm and composed, as if everything that happened had nothing to do with her and she was just a bystander who was far away from the world and felt neither sorrow nor joy.

When the leading maid just raised her hand and was about to drop it, Bishui had already prepared herself in her heart on how to fight back and protect Chu Shitong.

The maid's hand fell as Si Chunyao expected, but before it touched Bishui's face, the tense atmosphere in the store was interrupted by the voices of people outside the door.

Si Jingli's impatient voice exploded in the room like thunder.

"Si Chunyao, why are you so slow?"

The maid's hand that was about to reach Bishui's face stopped, and Bishui closed her eyes and started grabbing the maid randomly.

"Ahhh, you dare to hit our young master, I will beat you to death!"

In Chu Shitong's eyes, the way she waved her fists in fear of her fragile little identity looked like the crabs he had seen on the beach of Nanzhao Kingdom.

"what--"

The maid was almost frightened to death by Si Jingli's words just now, and was caught off guard by the scratching of the green water on her face. She couldn't help but step back and scream in pain. Several maids behind her hurriedly supported her.

Chu Shitong saw that the atmosphere was almost tense, so he held Bishui's shoulder and said, "Alright, alright, hero Bishui, please stop."

Bishui stopped when she heard Chu Shitong's voice. She had just stood in front of Chu Shitong with her teeth bared and claws bared, but now she was frightened to tears without realizing it.

Many young ladies from aristocratic families bowed to Si Jingli, but Si Jingli didn't even look at them and walked into the crowd with quick steps.

"It's so noisy." He glanced at Si Chunyao standing beside him, his peach blossom eyes filled with displeasure, and said coldly: "Are you deaf? Can't you hear me asking you a question?"

Si Chunyao came back to her senses and saw Si Jingli's face change immediately. She stepped forward and pretended to be wronged and said, "Brother! Someone bullied me! He also said bad things about us in Prince Rong's Mansion!"

Si Jingli was already impatient, and after hearing what Si Chunyao said, he became even more irritable.

"Who is so bold?"

A cunning smile appeared in Si Chunyao's eyes. She knew that it would be very difficult to ask Si Jingli to give her justice. But as long as the Prince Rong's Mansion was mentioned, it would be different. Si Jingli would definitely take care of the matter.

Si Chunyao immediately pointed at Chu Shitong, "That's him! And his maid!"

Si Jingli looked in the direction Si Chunyao pointed. Even though Chu Shitong was wearing a mask, he recognized Chu Shitong at a glance.

Chu Shitong was dressed in black as usual, keeping a low profile, and even wore a mask to hide her identity. She reached out and touched Bishui's head, as if she was saying something to Bishui. Bishui's eyes were red with grievance, and she didn't look like she could bully Si Chunyao.

This ordinary scene, like a gentle brother coaxing his wronged sister, made Si Jingli a little dazed.

Chu Shitong's hands seemed to have some magic power. As long as she gently patted Bishui's head, Bishui would be able to hold back her tears miraculously. At a certain moment, Si Jingli inexplicably felt that Chu Shitong's action was like that of a banished immortal who had fallen into the human world, gently comforting the suffering human beings. Her calm and powerful power seemed as if even the world turned upside down could not shake her composure.

Si Chunyao fanned the flames beside Si Jingli and said, "Brother, have someone drag that maid out and beat her to death! How dare she yell at me so rudely! Isn't this a slap in the face of our Rong Palace?"

Chu Shitong slowly raised his head at this time. The pair of eyes under the mask, as light as glass, were as calm as a lake of spring water, but full of alienation without any warmth.

Si Jingli was wearing his usual red clothes today. The cranes outlined by gold thread were lifelike and bright as fire, just as bright and ostentatious as he himself. His handsome and almost enchanting face had a dull expression, as if he was staring at himself in a trance.

Chu Shitong said, "Your Highness."

Si Jingli came back to his senses instantly, and his eyes quickly moved away from Chu Shitong as if avoiding him.

"Why...are you here?"

"I brought my maid to get something."

Seeing that Si Jingli seemed to really know Chu Shitong, and even did not help her but started chatting with Chu Shitong, Si Chunyao became more and more anxious and said, "Brother, please say something! He is bullying me, please deal with him and his maid!"

As he said that, he reached out to pull Si Jingli's sleeve.

Si Jingli raised his hand to avoid her, took a step back, and even looked down at his sleeves, as if he was afraid that his clothes would be dirty by her. He looked at her with disgust and said, "Who are you? Are you worthy of being called brother or sister by this prince?"

Si Chunyao's hands froze and her eyes widened in disbelief.

"elder brother?"

Si Jingli glanced at Chu Shitong inadvertently and felt deeply ashamed. Didn’t Si Jingli know what Si Chunyao was like?

He wished he could immediately clear up his relationship with Si Chunyao.

"Recognize your own identity. Are you a concubine's daughter worthy of calling me brother?"

Hearing the young ladies from the surrounding noble families couldn't help but laugh out loud, Si Chunyao felt that she had lost all her face.

She bit her lip, made a pitiful look, and tried to say something else.

"But......"

"If my grandmother hadn't asked me to pick you up today, I wouldn't bother with you." Si Jingli scolded, "If you want to embarrass yourself, go back to Prince Rong's Mansion and don't cause trouble for me here!"

Si Chunyao was the first to complain, "He was the one who stole my things! He also let his maid humiliate me. Why did you help outsiders instead of me? Even if I am a concubine's daughter, I am still your sister!"

Si Jingli raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealing a bit of sarcasm, and said: "This prince doesn't care whether you have been wronged or not. This prince only knows that you are embarrassing the Rong Palace now. If you don't get back on the carriage now, you won't have to go back to the Rong Palace in the future."

Si Chunyao stared at Si Jingli with red eyes. She couldn't understand why Si Jingli would help an outsider.

Chu Shitong patted Bishui gently and said, "See, I told you someone would help you deal with her."

Upon hearing this, Si Chunyao was so angry that her whole body was shaking.

Bishui immediately said, "Your Highness, just now your sister snatched the things that my young master had ordered in advance. Everyone in the store was watching. She even turned the tables and asked our young master to kowtow to her and apologize. She said that when you come, she will have someone drag our young master out and beat him to death. She also said that if you dare not touch my young master, Miss Si will crawl out of Changchun Street."

Chu Shitong felt that he had underestimated Bishui. This little girl was quite good at adding fuel to the fire.

Si Chunyao said that the one who was going to be dragged out and beaten to death was clearly Bishui, so how come she became the one?

Si Jingli's expression became increasingly gloomy, and even his tone became lowered.

"Si Chunyao, you dare to bet with this prince, are you tired of living?"

When Si Chunyao was looked at like this by Si Jingli, she felt as if she was in great trouble for no reason. She immediately explained, "No, brother, they were the first to mention Prince Rong's Mansion, so I said that!"

The waiter in the store immediately said, "Your Highness, we are watching here. This is the young man that Miss Si first made things difficult for! This young man had already ordered jewelry from our store and came to pick it up today, but Miss Si insisted that he give her the jewelry and even unreasonably asked him to apologize. When Your Highness first came, Miss Si's poetess even wanted to hit this young man!"

The young lady from aristocratic family nearby also followed suit and fanned the flames, hoping to gain some sense of presence in front of Si Jingli.

"Yes, Prince Si, Miss Si really went too far."

"I also saw the whole thing. Miss Si is really... a little unreasonable."

"It's fine if she's unreasonable, but she also implicated the prince for nothing. It's really disgusting."

As proud as Si Jingli is, he has always been the center of attention in front of others, and it is rare for him to encounter such an embarrassing scene in public.

Chu Shitong clearly saw that Si Jingli was already extremely angry, and just when he was about to explode, Chu Shitong whispered.

"Prince Rong's family is really well educated."

Chu Shitong's slow words instantly ignited Si Jingli's already uncontrollable anger.

"Someone come!" Si Jingli shouted angrily, "Drag Si Chunyao out! Doesn't she want to crawl out of Changchun Street? Break her legs for me! Let her crawl out safely!"

Si Chunyao was dumbfounded on the spot. Seeing that the guards beside Si Jingli were about to attack her, she immediately knelt down and said, "Si Jingli! I'm your sister! You can't do this to me! Daddy and mommy will definitely punish you if they find out!"

Si Jingli looked down at her, his gorgeous eyes suppressing the rage that was surging, but the words he spoke were so dark that they were almost murderous.

"You are just a concubine's daughter. Let alone breaking your legs, even if I kill you and your mother, no one in the Rong Palace would dare to ask me for the crime!"

Si Chunyao was so scared that tears burst out on the spot, because what Si Jingli said was the naked truth.

Si Jingli is the only prince of the Rong Palace. It seems that there is some curse on the Rong Palace. Except Si Jingli, none of the other concubines of the Rong Prince can give birth to a son. He has several concubines, but not a single concubine's son in all these years.

Even the emperor is particularly fond of Si Jingli, not to mention Prince Rong himself. No matter how excessive Si Jingli is, he is still his only bloodline and the only heir to the throne. Compared with Si Jingli himself, killing a few concubines is nothing.

Si Chunyao cried frantically: "Brother, spare me! I just wanted to scare him! I didn't mean it! You can't do this to me!"

Several guards stepped forward and held her down, pulling her hair mercilessly and dragging her out like a mad woman.

The atmosphere in the store was so depressing that people dared not breathe. Si Chunyao, who was so arrogant and domineering in the store in the last second, was dragged out by Si Jingli's men and her legs were broken in the next second.

Some young ladies from aristocratic families were so frightened that they quickly covered their eyes.

Before long, Si Chunyao's heart-wrenching screams and painful wails could be heard from the long street. The sound of guards swinging wooden sticks to break bones and hammering flesh hard scared several young ladies from aristocratic families into fainting.

They have been living in seclusion for many years and have never experienced such a cruel thing in person.

I don’t know how long it took, but the screams outside gradually became quieter, until the only sound was the pounding and Si Chunyao’s voice was gone.

Chu Shitong kindly reminded her, "Miss Si may have fainted. If she has fainted, forget about crawling out of Changchun Street. After all, His Royal Highness is also a man who values ​​his reputation, and Miss Si is not a member of the Rong Palace, so I can't force her too much."

Si Jingli said, "Someone, go get a basin of cold water and pour it over her to wake her up. Watch her crawl out of Changchun Street step by step today."

The guards beside him were about to do as he was told, but Chu Shitong stopped them: "Your Highness, that's enough."

Si Jingli said unhappily, "Even if she relied on the Rong Palace to bully you, she must fulfill her promise and do what she should do, which can also be regarded as an apology to you."

"Your Highness," Chu Shitong said, "I said enough because I don't want Your Highness to be known as a cruel person because of this incident. It's not because she bullied me before. She is just a person who can't be put on the stage. It only takes Your Highness a word to kill her. Whether she apologizes to me or not is indifferent to me."

Si Jingli lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then he said, "Forget it, find someone to carry her back to Prince Rong's Mansion."

What Chu Shitong said just now was the truth. She didn't want Si Jingli to be talked about because of such a trivial matter. But if Si Chunyao didn't teach him a lesson, Chu Shitong would have no place to vent her anger. Breaking a pair of legs was already the lightest outcome. In her previous life, Si Chunyao was beaten to death and thrown into a mass grave.

"It's getting late, Your Highness, goodbye."

Chu Shitong wanted to take Bishui away. When passing by Si Jingli, Chu Shitong heard him say in a low voice.

"I will compensate you for this matter in the future."

Chu Shitong paused and said without turning his head.

"No need."
