The useless princess is causing trouble again

The next morning.

Situ Chong and Shangguan Wei took a special carriage into the palace to attend the Qiqiao Festival banquet. The two of them kept a low profile. The carriage did not take the busy streets, but drove through remote roads. The journey was smooth and they arrived at the north gate of the palace in less than an incense stick of time.

Ze raised his identity token, and the guards at the gate let him pass without stopping. The carriage slowly drove into the palace gate. The road in the palace was wide and straight, paved with neat stone slabs, and the ground was faintly shining. On both sides of the road were neatly trimmed green belts, with green trees and colorful flowers, adding a touch of vitality to the palace. In the green belt stood exquisite sculptures and gorgeous fountains, with gurgling water, complementing the surrounding beauty. The magnificent palaces in the distance were looming, their roofs and walls decorated with gorgeous glazed tiles and colorful paintings, highlighting the dignity and majesty of the royal family. The palaces were connected by corridors, forming an intricate road network, making people feel like they were in a maze.

Shangguan Wei sat by the car window, looking at the scenery outside with interest. When passing an abandoned palace, she asked curiously, "My husband, why is this palace so desolate? It seems that there was a fire."

Situ Chong looked at the palace outside the window, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a calm tone, "The Luoxia Palace where my mother lived before her death has become a ruin since my mother died in the fire."

"This place must have been very beautiful in the past. The two trees in front of the gate are rare Linglong woods in the world. They bloom only once every fifty years, and the fragrance lingers for ten miles. The architectural style of the palace is also different from other places. It is bright and warm. The dragon and phoenix carvings on the wall are very exquisite and lifelike."

Shangguan Wei subconsciously held Situ Chong's right hand and gave him a faint smile, warm and beautiful.

Situ Chong held Shangguan Wei's hand and said, "Don't worry, ma'am. It's been so many years, and I've let it go. Besides, I'm very happy and satisfied now that you're by my side."

"Haha, that's good, I was just overthinking it."

"Madam, there are many people at the palace banquet, and many of them are targeting your husband, led by the Crown Prince. Your sick husband may make you suffer a lot of grievances."

Situ Chong's face looked slightly pale, and her voice was weak, making her look like a frail beauty.

Shangguan Wei said calmly, "Don't worry. There are only a handful of people who can make me feel wronged, but there are a lot of people who can make me vomit blood because of my anger."

"Well, as long as Madam is happy."

At this time, Zeyi's voice came into the car.

"Master, Princess, we have reached the middle gate and cannot continue driving the carriage. We must walk."

"Well, let's walk."

"I didn't have a good look around the palace last time. Now I can walk and see."

"Madam, if you like, I will accompany you for shopping."

Situ Chong and Shangguan Wei walked out of the carriage, then he put his left hand around her waist and jumped off the carriage. Holding hands, they walked through the small garden and met Prince Huainan and Princess Huaixi at the corner corridor.

When Princess Huaixi saw Situ Chong, she automatically blocked out Shangguan Wei's presence, stepped forward to greet him, and said with a sweet smile, "Brother Chong has finally returned to Beijing. It has been difficult for Xi'er to find him during this period. Now that we meet here today, Brother Chong must accompany Xi'er well."

Situ Chong put his right hand in front of Shangguan Wei and said, "Princess Huaixi, please don't offend my princess. I have to accompany my princess and I am busy. Princess Huaixi should find someone else to accompany you."

Princess Huaixi looked at Shangguan Wei with jealousy in her eyes, "How can she be called a princess? I am the Princess Sheng, the one that His Majesty has arranged for me to marry."

Shangguan Wei smiled without saying anything, and raised their clenched hands in a contemptible manner, silently declaring her sovereignty.

Princess Huaixi stamped her feet in anger, "Father, this woman is so arrogant that she actually touched my daughter's brother Chong."

King Huainan looked up at Situ Chong. Although his face was pale and colorless, he gave people an invisible pressure, and the chill he exuded made people unable to move.

The sickly guy's aura is so strong, could it be...

He cupped his hands and said with embarrassment, "Don't be offended, Your Highness Prince Sheng. Xi'er has been spoiled by me since she was a child. She can't keep her temper and loves to throw tantrums. I will discipline her strictly when I return. I won't disturb your highness and the princess's pleasure. I will take my son away now and we will meet again at the palace banquet."

Situ Chong waved his hand and said, "I want to accompany the princess to visit the imperial garden. Princess Huaixi's noise really affects our mood. Prince Huainan should take her away."

Hearing this, Princess Huaixi bit her lower lip and folded her hands in front of her, "No, I won't leave. Brother A Chong and I are engaged, and he must accompany me. She is the one who should leave." She glared at Shangguan Wei, her teeth chattering, as if she wanted to bite her off.

Situ Chong glanced at her coldly, "Princess Huaixi, please don't talk nonsense. The engagement between me and you has been annulled. If you know what's best for you, leave immediately. If you make the princess unhappy, I will not let you off easily."

He turned his head and glanced at King Huainan, and said in a very cold and unfamiliar tone, "I believe King Huainan has received my decree to cancel the engagement, so there is no need for me to waste my words on it."

King Huainan smiled and said, "I received the imperial decree to cancel the engagement the day before yesterday, but Xi'er is not in the capital, so she has not known about it yet. It's better to talk about it today. All the things in the past were caused by Xi'er's self-indulgent entanglement. This king will strictly discipline Xi'er and will not bother Your Highness again in the future."

After that, he pulled Princess Huaixi's right arm and forcibly took her away from the spot. Princess Huaixi angrily swung her right hand, trying to get rid of the restraints, crying, "Wuwu~ Father, please don't stop me. The cancellation of the engagement is not true. It must be this witch who deceived Brother Chong. Father, please let go. Wuwu~ I only want Brother Chong, otherwise I will not live."

King Huainan slowed down his movements, "Alas, there are so many good men in the world, why is Xi'er doing this?"

Princess Huaixi took advantage of the opportunity to struggle with her right hand and ran towards Shangguan Wei. With deep disgust in her eyes, she raised her right hand and swung it towards Shangguan Wei fiercely.

"Bitch, I'll make you look good."

Time stood still for three seconds...

"Xi'er, don't do anything stupid."

"You are so bold, you are seeking death."

Shangguan Wei dodged and took a few steps back with a mischievous smile on her face.

That's it? Reflect on yourself on the ground.

Princess Huaixi fell forward and landed on her face, which was extremely funny.

The pain spread throughout her body. She pounded the ground with her right hand, without any aristocratic temperament, and yelled, "Damn bitch, vixen, you made me fall, I will kill you."

Situ Chong gathered strength in his right hand, "Princess Huaixi speaks wildly without regard for status, humiliating the person dear to my heart. I will never forgive her easily."

King Huainan's heartbeat quickened with fear. "Your Highness Prince Sheng, please calm down. Xi'er, please apologize to Princess Sheng."

Princess Huaixi glared at Shangguan Wei and said, "If I don't apologize, beat me to death if you dare."

Shangguan Wei shrugged indifferently, "Alas, the noble ladies in the capital are nothing special. The princess's monkey-like behavior has opened my eyes. Today is a palace banquet. I will not kill, so I will just punish her lightly."

She raised her right index finger and flicked it forward. A small white pill entered Princess Huaixi's mouth and she swallowed it unexpectedly.

"Hehe, Princess, just bear with it."
