Shen Yunjiao was beaten so badly just now that it sounded a big alarm in everyone's hearts, so naturally no one dared to disobey her.

Someone immediately flattered her, "Princess, you are right. It's just a joke between sisters, not the dirty tricks of gambling houses."

The others all agreed.

"Exactly."

"Just kidding..."

Gu Ruxiao curled her red lips slightly and spoke in a raised voice.

"Okay, then please place your bets with the jewelry you are wearing."

Soon, all kinds of earrings, pearl hairpins, bracelets, jade pendants... were piled up in an orderly manner on both sides.

Among them, Gu Chenan’s jewelry was piled up so high that there was almost no room left.

Gu Beihuai only had a few pieces of jewelry, including Shen Qingyan's.

The Queen and Gu Ruxiao did not place any bets due to their special status, but they were naturally angry when they saw such an obvious difference. However, Gu Ruxiao was sure that his brother Gu Beihuai would win.

At this time, a woman with almond-shaped eyes came up to Shen Qingyan, and seeing that she resolutely joined Gu Beihuai, she couldn't help but mock her.

"Shen Qingyan, don't you like His Royal Highness Prince Chen the most? Why did you vote for His Royal Highness Prince Su?"

The woman with almond-shaped eyes is the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, named Feng Yue'er. She is best friends with Shen Yunjiao. It seems that she has come to avenge her good sister.

Just when Shen Qingyan was regretting not having dealt with Shen Yunjiao personally, someone came to her door.

She raised her hand without hesitation and slapped Feng Yue'er hard.

"what!"

Feng Yue'er was caught off guard and her head tilted to the side. Her cheeks began to swell up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Shen Qingyan, you dare to hit me?!"

"I'm hitting you!" Shen Qingyan snorted coldly and gave Feng Yue'er another crisp slap. The other side of Feng Yue'er's cheek also swelled up and the slap mark was clearly visible.

Everyone else was shocked by this sudden change and thought Shen Qingyan was crazy.

The Queen already disliked Shen Qingyan, and now she had a reason.

"Shen Qingyan, how dare you! You hit someone in public, do you still take me seriously?!"

Shen Qingyan slowly raised her eyes, her gaze was cold and fearless, and she said neither servilely nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty, there is a reason why I beat her."

The queen snorted coldly, "Tell me, what's the reason?"

If she can't tell it, she will definitely punish her severely!

"First, I am the legitimate wife of Prince Su, but Feng Yue'er called me by my name, which is disrespectful and she should be punished with fifty strokes of the cane. Secondly, I am the wife of Prince Su, and I only have Prince Su in my heart, but Feng Yue'er slandered me on the spot that I like Prince Chen, which is a crime of defaming the royal family and she should be punished by having her tongue pulled out. Finally, Feng Yue'er was disrespectful and yelled, and she is the one who really doesn't take you seriously, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, how do you think she should be punished?"

The queen opened her eyes wide and was speechless for a moment.

Because everything Shen Qingyan said was well-founded and real.

She also kicked back the words, saying that it would be wrong for her to punish Feng Yue'er now, and it would also be wrong not to punish Feng Yue'er.

Feng Yue'er was horrified and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Your Majesty, I was just speaking out of turn. It was not intentional. Please forgive me."

The queen was annoyed and wanted to let it go, but Gu Ruxiao beside her suddenly said, "The person you should beg for mercy from is not your mother, but the princess."

Feng Yue'er was startled for a moment, then she reacted, knelt in front of Shen Qingyan, and said reluctantly.

"Please forgive me, Princess."

Shen Qingyan looked down at her, sneered, raised her hand and pinched Feng Yue'er's chin.

"Why are you not convinced?"

Feng Yueer opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she heard Shen Qingyan say loudly: "Since you are not convinced, then just slap me in the face. You have committed so many crimes, a slap in the face is not too much, right?"

Meeting those eyes that were as cold as the frost in December, Feng Yue'er was completely frightened.

"I accept, I accept..."

"It's too late." Shen Qingyan was smiling, but there was an indescribable coldness in her expression, "Qingmei, slap your face."

"Yes, Princess."

Qingmei had been waiting for this day for a long time. She rolled up her sleeves and slapped Feng Yue'er hard on the mouth.

Feng Yue'er wanted to hide, but Shen Qingyan's words forced her to hold back.

"If you don't want to slap me, then deal with me according to the law."

Feng Yue'er had no choice but to grit her teeth and bear it.

The sound of slapping continued. The others who had helped Shen Yunjiao bully Shen Qingyan felt a chill on their backs, fearing that they would be implicated.

Shen Qingyan looked at Feng Yue'er's face indifferently as it became more and more swollen, without any sympathy at all.

It's always necessary to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, it's just that Feng Yue'er happened to be unlucky.

She will slowly and one by one pay back those who bullied and humiliated her in her previous life.

Gu Ruxiao looked at the woman with cold eyes and eyebrows, as if standing on the top of a snowy mountain, and was amazed.

Shen Qingyan in this life has changed so much that she even wonders if she has become a different person.

But it is this kind of coldness and ruthlessness that makes people feel happy.

That's how it should be!

They should have been severely beaten and avenged a long time ago!

It was not until Gu Beihuai and Gu Chenan had changed their clothes and were facing each other with swords on the opposite boat that Shen Qingyan asked Qingmei to stop.

Feng Yue'er's face had become so swollen that even her mother wouldn't be able to recognize her.

She touched her face with trembling hands, suddenly screamed, and crawled down to find a mirror.

No one paid any attention to her as everyone's attention was drawn to the two princes on the cruise ship opposite.

The two men were wearing the same black short-sleeved outfit with cloud patterns. One was cold and noble, the other was gentle as jade. They were like two dragons ready to take off, both determined to win.

Gu Chenan just wanted to end the battle quickly, so he took the lead in attacking Gu Beihuai.

However, Gu Beihuai did not dodge or evade, allowing the long sword to point at his face.

Everyone gasped and widened their eyes in disbelief.

Even the emperor, who had been careless at first, sat up straight.

Is Prince Su stupid? Why doesn't he hide?

Shen Qingyan's hands were tightly twisted around the handkerchief, and she was so nervous that her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

Gu Beihuai can do it, she believes him.

Gu Chenan was proud in his heart, Gu Beihuai, it was you who didn't avoid it, so don't blame me for being ruthless.

However, just as the tip of his sword was about to pierce Gu Beihuai's face, a jaw-dropping scene occurred.

Gu Beihuai quickly dodged the sword by turning his head, and Gu Chenan's sword missed, as he fell forward due to inertia.

Gu Beihuai made a quick move, and with a crisp click, Gu Chenan's right hand holding the sword was removed.

The speed was so fast that some people didn't see the movement clearly before they heard Gu Chenan's screams.

Shen Qingyan's heart felt like a huge stone had fallen to the ground, and she couldn't help but cry out.

"My lord is mighty!"

Gu Beihuai immediately looked in the direction of the voice and met the woman's sparkling eyes and joyful expression.

At that moment, his heart skipped a beat.

Was she rejoicing over him?

Some people who bet on Gu Chenan widened their eyes in disbelief.
