Chapter 443: Chapter 430 Absolutely not!
Upon seeing the person kneeling on the ground, Princess An Le sneered, “Since you know you have offended me, you should be aware of the punishment for such an offense. Now, kneel here for half an hour.”
Kneel for half an hour?
Liang Xuelin immediately collapsed on the ground.
At today’s banquet, there were numerous princes and nobles coming and going. What if someone saw him kneeling here…
Moreover, Liang Xuelin was well aware that those who treated him kindly today were only doing so out of respect for Concubine Liang. They merely exchanged pleasantries and didn’t actually respect him; in their hearts, they looked down on him. They even resented his overly high-profile display today.
If they saw him punished and kneeling, wouldn’t they revel in his humiliation and ridicule him?
“Princess An Le, please forgive ..…” Liang Xuelin opened his mouth to explain.
“Add another half an hour.” Princess An Le’s languid voice sounded again.
Liang Xuelin’s heart immediately shuddered, and he quickly shut his mouth.
His heart was filled with fear and anger. He couldn’t help glaring at Princess An Le.
However, upon a closer look, Liang Xuelin couldn’t help but be taken aback.
It was said that Princess An Le was born with a beauty that could overturn empires, however, Liang Xuelin initially thought that was merely flattery from those who wanted to curry favor with her. Even though this Princess An Le was born into royalty, at best, she was just a bit more attractive than the average person.
Unexpectedly, Princess An Le had apricot eyes and willow eyebrows, which were exceptionally beautiful. Along with her royal demeanor that no one could match, her already captivating beauty was further enhanced. It gave her an otherworldly air of unapproachable aloofness, adding a touch of cold seduction.
Liang Xuelin thought that if his two beautiful concubines were compared to Princess An Le, they would seem like common carp contrasted against a precious pearl.
However, such a beauty was not someone he could yearn for, especially considering that she had just severely punished him.
Liang Xuelin lowered his head, “Princess An Le, your instruction is indeed…”
Princess An Le didn’t speak this time, but rather, she lowered the light veil she had been twirling.
Then, her languid voice sounded again, “Add another half an hour…”
How vile!
Was she trying to suffocate him?
Liang Xuelin almost gritted his teeth to pieces. As he watched her gradually retreat, he cursed bitterly.
Kneel for an hour?
Pretend that he was stupid? Kneel just because she ordered him to, with nobody around to witness it. He wasn’t such a fool to obediently kneel here.
Liang Xuelin stood up from the ground and dusted off his knees.
She was merely a princess, yet acted so high and mighty. Did she regard him as a commoner with no status, to punish him as she pleased!?
Sooner or later, he would make her pay.
Cursing under his breath, Liang Xuelin stormed off in a huff.
