C524 Princess Wushuangs retreat (1/2)
”My name is Cui Liu. I come from the Eighth Street.” The woman said softly. The sound reached into Su Mei's bones. Princess Wushuang frowned. She looked at Jiang Zilan. Obviously, the aloof Princess Wushuang didn't know what the Eighth Avenue was.
”Eighth Avenue is also known as Flower Street. I brought it back with me a few days ago. I've always lived in the room that you mentioned, Princess.” Jiang Zilan said.
”Bastard!” You brought a woman back! ” These few days, he had been dealing with the matter of the Qin family entering the capital, and he was extremely busy. He rarely came back, but who knew, his son would be at home, overturning the heavens!
Jiang Zilan looked impatient. ”I'm just following my own preferences. I'm not in the wrong.”
”This lady lives in your house? If that's the case, then let her bring me to that courtyard again. ” Princess Wushuang looked at the woman from the street. She did not believe Jiang Zilan's bullshit at all.
However, she was also certain that this woman would definitely not be without worries. How could Wuyou do such a thing?
When Jiang Zilan heard Princess Wushuang's words, he almost burst out laughing. Fortunately, I'm smart! Jiang Zilan remained calm as he thought to himself, ”Tsui Liu, why don't you accompany the princess to the palace?”
”Yes.”
As the lady spoke, she moved her water snake waist and headed outside. Princess Wushuang signaled her maidservants to go over.
Not long after, that girl returned with her maidservant. The maidservant nodded towards Princess Wushuang, indicating that it was indeed that room. Princess Wushuang's face could not help but darken. Then she said: ”I received news that the residence may be hiding the Ninth Princess. Since this woman lives in that house, and someone also said that Princess Wuyou might live in that house, then someone come and take away this woman's face. I, the princess, would like to see who exactly she is.”
Since Princess Wushuang could say those words, it was obvious that she was prepared to kill someone.
The woman immediately turned pale with fright, and Jiang Zilan also stood in front of her.
Lord Jiang's brows furrowed as he said with ill intent, ”Princess Wushuang, while I respect you, it does not mean that you can touch my family. Since this woman is my son's new lover, she is a member of my Jiang family.
It would be impolite of you to touch her. ”
”What is it? You want to reason with me? ” Princess Wushuang smiled mockingly.
”This old man doesn't mind speaking with the princess in front of His Majesty.” Lord Jiang said in a cold voice, obviously angry. Princess Wushuang's expression froze. She was His Majesty's older sister, and because of that, she understood His Majesty better.
He felt that he owed the Jiang Clan too much, so once he started a conflict with them, he would surely be at a disadvantage.
While thinking, Princess Wushuang could only say resentfully: ”Today, I will give Sir Jiang some face and take my leave. ”I hope that in the future, I won't hear any more news about the Jiang Clan concealing the ninth princess.”
”Princess, don't worry. My Jiang family has been loyal for generations. Naturally, we won't do anything that would harm the Yue Empire. If the Ninth Princess were to find out, I will personally go to the Emperor and ask for forgiveness.” A grim look appeared on Old Master Jiang's face.
When Princess Wuyou heard this, she was extremely furious. However, it was useless to say that the Jiang family was not someone she could touch, especially with regards to such matters. His Majesty's trust in the Jiang family had reached a point that made one's hair stand on end. In addition, the Jiang family didn't fight for it, and even if they said they were guilty, it wouldn't hold them up.
After receiving such a loss, Princess Wushuang only gave a cold grunt and then quickly left.
After Princess Wushuang had left, Jiang Zilan heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at his father with a smile on his face and said: ”Dad, you're still the strongest. Even Princess Wushuang, who was so fierce and unreasonable, could only give way.”
”Humph!” Do you really think that Princess Wushuang is giving in to my Jiang family? ” Lord Jiang stared coldly at his good-for-nothing son. If possible, he really wanted to slap this brat awake.
Jiang Zilan was surprised at his words. ”Father, what do you mean by that?”
”What do you mean? Let me ask you, who exactly is living in that room? What exactly have you been doing recently? ” Old Master Jiang asked in dissatisfaction. Upon hearing his father's words, Jiang Zilan's face turned awkward as he looked at his father.
