In the evening, the setting sun dyed the earth, pedestrians were hurrying on the street, and two old horses died of exhaustion on South Street.

It's been a long time...

Shangguan Wei sat in the carriage, feeling irritated by the hot weather. "What happened, Mei? Why didn't the carriage move?"

Mei uttered three words, "The horse is dead."

Shangguan Wei strode forward in surprise and pulled aside the curtain. The two old horses stood there stubbornly and died.

He slapped his forehead with his left hand and said, "What's wrong with the housekeeper? He looks like an old man."

Steward Yun lowered his head and said awkwardly, "Princess, these are the two best horses in the palace. Perhaps they have walked too much today and are exhausted."

"My goodness, the best horse in the mansion is gone."

Steward Yun raised his right hand, "Princess, the horse the prince has is a good one."

Mei said calmly, "Do you want me to rent a carriage?"

Shangguan Wei sat in the driver's seat and said, "No need to rent, I'll solve the problem."

Mei simply replied with an "OK".

Shangguan Wei got off the carriage and hurried into the alley next to it. Butler Yun sat in the carriage, his hands clasped together and sweaty, feeling very nervous.

The princess won't cause trouble again...

Heibao came out of the space and looked up at Shangguan Wei, who was sweating profusely. "Master, why did you call me out?"

"Baozi, use your title of King of All Beasts to summon some thousand-mile horses."

"Uh, what do you want a horse for?"

"Don't ask. If you ask, it will only bring tears. Hurry back home."

"Okay, just a roar."

Heibao raised his proud pig head and howled at the sky.

The noise was deafening, and Butler Yun was so frightened that he fell down on the wooden board and said to Mei in a panic, "Miss Mei, I hope the princess is okay."

Mei turned her head slightly and said calmly, "Don't worry, Manager Yun, the master will be fine."

Shangguan Wei put Heibao back into the space, and returned to the carriage with a heroic look, her hands folded in front of her chest.

"Let's wait a little longer. The horse will be here soon."

Butler Yun was puzzled, "Princess, where did the thousand-mile horse come from?"

"As the name suggests, a Thousand-Li Horse is a horse summoned from a thousand miles away. We will choose the fastest one."

Butler Yun was skeptical, "Okay, I understand."

The princess is going crazy and the horses will appear as soon as she roars. I still have to make some preparations. It’s better to go secretly...

Suddenly, the ground and buildings around were shaking, and there was a lot of noise on the streets, as if someone was seeing some spectacular scene.

"Where did this horse come from? It's so scary."

"Look, these are all Ferghana horses worth tens of thousands of taels. Who has so many horses?"

"That's the Tianshan Snow Horse, the Holy Land Horse. Wow! Today is really an eye-opener."

"Everyone, hurry up and follow us to see who the owner of the horse is."

Hundreds of horses stopped in front of Shangguan Wei, blocking the South Street, scrambling to get forward. Shangguan Wei smiled happily, touching and looking at the horses left and right, unable to let go of them all.

"Alright, alright, you're all good, all follow me back home."

Butler Yun was stunned, his heart was so fragile that he could not bear any more blows. He said bitterly, "Princess, the palace cannot accommodate so many horses."

If we can’t even feed ourselves, how can we have money left to raise livestock, especially expensive BMWs? It’s so annoying.

Shangguan Wei waved her hand, "It's okay, I'll find a way to solve it. Pick two horses with strong horsepower, and let's go back home."

Mei said yes respectfully.

After the carriages were harnessed, they continued to move forward, with groups of good horses guarding them on both sides, forming a beautiful landscape in the capital. People stopped on both sides of the road and had heated discussions about the wonder.

"This is the carriage of Prince Sheng's palace. I heard that the woman just now is the Princess of Sheng."

"Prince Sheng's mansion is so poor, yet they have so many fine horses. Princess Sheng must be very rich. Prince Sheng has finally gotten his reward after all the hardship he has endured."

"Although Prince Sheng has no real power and is a sickly man who will not live long, at least he is handsome. His face has charmed thousands of girls, especially Miss Ruan and Princess Huaixi."

……

The study in the main courtyard of Prince Sheng’s Mansion.

Situ Chong sat at the desk, holding a memorial in his hands, which he placed upside down, absent-mindedly, his eyes drifting towards the door from time to time.

Ze Ren stood by and didn't dare to make a sound. He had asked the princess no less than a hundred times since he came out of the palace. He thought that the new princess must be very popular with his master.

At this time, Ze Er walked into the study, and Situ Chong's eyes lit up, "A Er, the princess is back."

Ze Er folded his hands and said, "My Lord, is the princess still on her way back?"

Situ Chong looked displeased, "Why don't you come back with her?"

Ze Er paused, "I was worried that the princess would notice, so I went back first. The princess will be back to the palace in two turns."

Situ Chong stared into Ze Er's eyes, "Did the princess get bullied outside? What did she do?"

Ze Er pursed his lips and sorted out his thoughts in his mind.

Who dares to bully the princess? It’s a good thing she doesn’t bully others.

"My Lord, the princess was not bullied by anyone, and she even punished Minister Nong and Prince Chen. On her way back, she also summoned hundreds of BMWs. I'm afraid the palace can't accommodate them all."

After listening to this, Situ Chong put his left hand on his forehead and said, "I understand. You can leave now."

Zeyi answered yes and turned to leave the study.

Situ Chong looked at Ze Ren and said, "Follow me to see the princess. You will follow her from now on."

Ze Ren bit his lip, cupped his hands and said, "Master, I have followed you since I was a child. Are you abandoning me?"

Situ Chong smiled faintly, "The princess is someone I protect with my life. Protecting her is protecting me. The princess is a kind-hearted person. Please do not neglect her with your words."

Ze Yi lowered his head and thought for a while, "Yes, I understand."

……

Shangguan Wei and Butler Yun put the horses in a better yard. Butler Yun sat on the ground, panting, exhausted.

"Princess, what shall I do next?"

Shangguan Wei took out a notebook from her bag and handed it to Steward Yun. "This is the construction plan of the palace. Give it to Minister Xiao tomorrow and ask him to rebuild it according to the plan."

Butler Yun flipped through a few pages, and finally his eyes fixed on the last page, his face twitching.

"My Lord, Princess, the cost is three million taels. This may cost Minister Xiao his life. The cost of the other mansions is within one million taels."

Shangguan Wei supported her chin with her right hand and thought, "Oh, is that so? Then let Minister Xiao repair the front yard, and I'll leave the rest to Fifth Senior Brother. If you have any questions, please ask Minister Xiao to come to me." She took back the blueprint of the backyard and handed over the rest.

Steward Yun took the notebook and said, "Okay, if this is true, I will tell Minister Xiao. If there is nothing else, I will leave."

Shangguan Wei waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, I'll just walk around here."

Butler Yun said yes, turned around and walked a few steps, but met Situ Chong who was walking towards him. He wanted to speak but was stopped, so he bowed and walked away.

Shangguan Wei looked at the desolate scene and said, "We can build an entertainment venue here, where people can play ball and dance, and build a barbecue area over there. Haha, it's a good idea."

"Madam, you are so elegant. You don't even miss your husband after playing all day."

Situ Chong stood behind Shangguan Wei, looking at her with a smile on his face.
