The sudden visit of the princess of An Guo had caused the entire Prime Minister's residence to sink into an indescribably tense atmosphere.
At this moment, she was expressionlessly sitting on the large yellow pear chair in the main hall. Her right index finger was moving the sapphire gold ring on her left pinky from time to time. She exuded an intimidating aura from top to bottom, making it hard to breathe.
Her guards, the palace maids and the mama, stood behind her.
Even his mother, Lian Yanqing, Second Master Lian Yanfeng, Third Master Lian Yan Tao, First Wife Rong, Second Wife Hu, Third Wife Liu, Fourth Wife Yan and all the other ladies in the rooms were standing in front of the princess. Everyone was silent and no one dared to speak.
Even if they didn't exit through the gate, those who didn't enter through the gate would know what kind of person this princess An Guo was, so none of them dared to breathe too loudly.
Normally, she couldn't appear on such occasions, but because of her status as an equal wife, she could now stand behind the first wife. When everyone was extremely nervous, she felt a kind of happiness in her heart.
She was also somewhat puzzled by the Princess An Guo's grand entrance. From what she remembered from her past life, the Princess of An Guo had never been to the Prime Minister's Estate. Why had she come this time?
Lian Shiya, who always liked to be in the limelight, didn't even dare to raise her head as she deliberately stood at the back. This was because of the matter of Princess An Guo's chrysanthemum feast that left her with a lingering fear. She thought to herself, it's been so long, and the parrot's scratches on the princess' face have already disappeared. She shouldn't be looking for trouble over this matter.
Princess An Guo lifted her eyelids and slowly looked at the crowd before her. Her cold gaze made people feel pressured. Lian Yan Qing raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his forehead. Princess An Guo really shouldn't offend this person.
What in the world was going on?
Finally, the Princess of An's gaze fell upon the rose-red, multi-colored phoenix imprinted long sleeve garment on Lian Shiya's body in the back row. After that, she slowly withdrew her gaze and said:
"The eleventh princess' birthday is coming up next month, so I've arranged for a piece of clothing at the clothing store in Jingxi for her to be given on her birthday. It took me half a year to finish painting it. When I went to get the clothes today, the shop owner told me that the clothes had been stolen away by force. "
As Princess An spoke, Lian Shiya, who was standing in the crowd, was already trembling all over. Her face was pale and her back was cold. Sweat beaded on her forehead. She was on the verge of fainting.
Lian Ruyue immediately understood. So the long robe that Lian Shiya insisted on buying and was even swaggering around was actually — Princess An Guo's!
This...
She saw that even Shiya looked like she couldn't help but feel pity for her. How could she be so lucky that she stole the clothes of the An Kingdom's princess?
She silently mourned for Lian Shiya in her heart. Third sister, ah, third sister, this time I'm innocent. I didn't do anything and even advised you.
Even Yan Qing understood the situation when he heard Princess An Guo's words. Which blind person in the Prime Minister's Estate would dare to snatch away the birthday present that Princess An Guo had prepared for Princess Eleven?
What blind person had caused him such trouble!
He suddenly turned his head and looked at the crowd below him. The anger in his eyes was enough to kill someone. Even Shiya's head was about to drop to her chest. She was holding the handkerchief in both hands and shaking it non-stop.
At this moment, she was still the most beautiful and dazzling person in the crowd, dressed in luxurious clothes.
"This is considered strange. Up till now, this princess has never had anyone fight with me over things. Today, however, I have met one." Hearing that this person is a member of the Prime Minister's Estate, this princess truly wants to meet this person's true appearance and see who this person is and not put this princess in her eyes in the slightest. "
Princess An Guo's words made everyone involuntarily turn to look at the others. They thought to themselves, just who has the guts to steal the princess' clothes?
"Who?" Lian Yanqing suppressed the anger in his heart as he asked in a deep voice.
With a plop, Lian Shiya, who was originally as dazzling as a peacock with its feathers spread wide open, softened and knelt on the ground. She kowtowed while begging for mercy, "Princess, I, I didn't know that you made this long robe to give to Princess Eleven. I really didn't know …"
What? When the Xiao clan who stood in front of Lian Shiya saw this scene, their heart suddenly thumped. Was it Ya Er who bought the clothes of the An Kingdom's princess? How could this be? The Xiao Clan that was originally immersed in the joy of obtaining recognition was completely stunned!
Only now did Lian Yanqing understand. So it was this worried third daughter!
"Evil creature!" At that moment, he wished that he did not have this daughter of his!
"Hmph …" "The Third Miss of the Prime Minister's Estate is truly rich. This princess' clothes are priceless in the city, but when I went to the shop, I painstakingly gave her two thousand taels of gold. The Third Miss easily took away five hundred taels of gold from my clothes."
When Lian Yan Qing heard Princess An Guo's words, his heart immediately tightened. This meant that she was questioning his integrity as an official. This was not a matter of clothes. What would happen if it spread to the emperor's ears?
He walked up to Lian Shiya in a few steps and angrily shouted, "Little bastard, raise your head!"
Trembling, Lian Shiya lifted her meticulously portrayed little face. Her face was filled with tears of fear as her mouth trembled. Her voice seemed to squeeze out from her throat. "Father, father …"
Without saying a word, Lian Yan Qing raised his hands and fiercely slapped her face two times, "Evil creature! What is my Lian Family's teachings? Tell me about it! "
"Humble, humble, respectful, loyal, loyal, filial piety, righteous …" Lian Shiya's two cheeks were slapped red. Her five fingers were clearly imprinted on her fair face, but she didn't dare to cry out in pain. Her trembling voice trembled as she spoke of Lian's family training.
"My Lian family's rules are strict. You little bastard actually disregarded my rules, using my banner to leave. Today, I will use my clan's rules to punish you!" The Xiao family was extremely anxious at the side, but she didn't dare open her mouth and plead on behalf of Lian Shiya at this moment. She was afraid that it would anger the Princess and Lian Yanqing even more.
Lian Ruyue knew that her father was punishing Lian Shiya to show to the An Princess that he was honest and upright, but unfortunately, he was tricked by such a great and honorable daughter.
However, the princess of An Kingdom paid no heed to this. Her expression remained as cold as ever. Her eyes were like ice as she looked at the person kneeling on the ground and said,
"I also heard that you told that shop assistant that no one in the capital is allowed to wear the same type of clothes as you. What a boastful tone. Even my princess An Guo didn't say anything like that."
Lian Shiya was already regretting her mistake. She kowtowed and confessed to the Princess of An Guo, "Princess, Princess, I know I was wrong. I-I was just being quick with my words. Princess, please forgive me."
"If that's the case, then I will also give the order. In the future, in the capital, you are not allowed to wear any more red clothes." Princess An also placed a ban on Lian Shiya.
Not allowed to wear red? Lian Shiya felt as if a piece of her heart had been cut off. Her favorite color was red; her skin was white, and wearing red was the most beautiful. Not letting her wear red would simply take away her life.
