Without waiting for Aunt Liu to finish, Xia Sizhu walked over to the carriage and greeted, "Stop!" Xia Sizhu spread her arms and roared, looking extremely domineering.

The carriage stopped not too far away from Xia Sizhu. Ling Feng secretly wiped away his sweat as he looked at her with eyes full of grievance. The carriage wasn't something that could be done by a human being.

"Sizhu, stop messing around. This is not good for you." Seeing the driver's appearance, Aunt Liu knew that the person in the carriage was the Night King.

Feeling the strange gazes from the surroundings and thinking of the rumors circulating outside, Aunt Liu suddenly became anxious. Wasn't it just a palace banquet? At most, he would not go.

"What's wrong with that? Do I still care about the current me?" For an ugly girl like her, how bad could her reputation be?

Why did she have to make herself unhappy over a reputation? She never cared about the way people viewed her.

Seeing the man walk out of the carriage, Aunt Liu wanted to pull Xia Sizhu away. Dongfang Ye raised his eyes to look at Aunt Liu, but her body froze in place.

"How did you get injured?" Dongfang Ye frowned as he looked at Xia Sizhu's bleeding elbow.

"Come here!" Dongfang Ye paused for a moment before saying with a completely commanding tone.

Xia Sizhu frowned and did not move forward.

"What is it? Do you want this grandpa to invite you? " Dongfang Ye's magnetic voice sounded once again, and his tone carried anger.

Feeling Dongfang Ye's threat, Xia Sizhu walked over unwillingly. There were so many people watching on the street, so she couldn't give him any face.

Dongfang Ye looked at Xia Sizhu, who obediently walked in front of him, and fished out a medicine chest from the carriage. Under the gazes of the onlookers, they were either jealous, envious, shameless, or disdainful, as they grabbed onto Xia Sizhu's hand that was trying to escape.

Dongfang Ye gently applied the medicine on Xia Sizhu, instantly blinding the audience. Since when had the cold-blooded Night King been so gentle towards others?

"In the future, remember to be merciful and lenient." The medicated Dongfang Ye ignored everyone's twitching gazes and gave Xia Sizhu an adorable bow, looking at his masterpiece, Dongfang Ye thought it was pretty good.

A pile of black lines slid across Xia Sizhu's forehead as she reached out to untie the bow. She didn't expect that Dongfang Ye's mature appearance hid a childish heart.

"You dare to say that to give it a try?" Dongfang Ye didn't stop her, but the threatening words sent chills down Xia Sizhu's spine.

"I want to borrow the carriage." A trace of anger could be seen in the voice of Xia Sizhu, who had silently retracted her claws.

"You all …" Dongfang Ye looked at the scene of the crime and immediately understood. He hadn't even said 'come up' before he was interrupted by a voice.

"There is no need to worry about my fiancee. I will bring her to the palace myself." A carriage slowly approached. Within the carriage, Dong Fang Li looked at Xia Si Zhu and Dong Fang Ye with a cold expression, her gaze as sharp as a knife.

He had just learned from the Imperial Palace that Prince Xi Ling came to the Southern Capital and was currently attending the Imperial Palace as a guest. As the Crown Prince, he naturally had to attend, but who would have thought that halfway through, he would actually see a small exchange between his fiancée and his fourth brother?

As his fiancee, how could he not be angry when he was entangled with other men?

"Fiancée?" Do you take her as your fiancée? " Dong Fang Ye looked at Dong Fang Li, and did not retreat in the slightest.

"Whether or not I consider her my fiancée has nothing to do with Fourth Brother!" Dongfang Ye's unyielding attitude caused Dongfang Li's expression to become even uglier.

"It has nothing to do with me now, but it might not happen again." The meaning of that sentence was unclear, but it had successfully turned Dong Fang Li's complexion from black to green.

After looking at the sun and then looking at the two princes, Xia Sizhu felt that if she didn't do something, no one would be able to go to the Light Imperial Palace. Thus, she planned to rob the carriage.

With a light leap, under Dongfang Li's fierce gaze and Dongfang Ye's smiling face, Xia Sizhu kicked the driver, Ling Feng, out of the car.

Dongfang Ye's expression instantly darkened. After being kicked down, Ling Feng's face was filled with confusion and depression. He was now just a coachman. How could he offend someone and receive such treatment …

"Why are these two men so long-winded? "You two can use the same carriage, while I and Aunt Liu can use the same carriage." The world instantly quieted down as everyone looked at Xia Sizhu with fear in their eyes.

"Aunt Liu, come up." Xia Sizhu extended her hand towards Aunt Liu, who looked at Dong Fang Li with a threatening gaze. Aunt Liu steeled her heart, and chose to board the carriage.

"You drive." After pulling Aunt Liu into the carriage, Xia Sizhu pointed at the trembling coachman by the side.

"Yes."

Who cares if he was a crown prince or not, Night King was not his master. He was a servant of the Prime Minister's Estate, and the young miss was his master. He should listen to the young miss, but why did his body not obey her? The coachman climbed onto the carriage with a shaky body and a pair of sharp eyes looked at the coachman. Then, the coachman shakily dragged the carriage away.

"It seems that this king can only go with royal brother. Royal brother wouldn't be unwilling, right?" Dongfang Ye watched as Xia Sizhu left in his carriage, feeling a little proud of herself. At least the carriage belonged to him, not the crown prince.

"How could I not? "Let's get on the carriage, fourth brother!" Dongfang Li's eyes flashed. She had recovered her usual grace and grace. I have wasted too much time here. If I don't go to the palace now, my royal father will be angry.

Only after the carriage carrying the two princes had left did the crowd slowly disperse. After today's scene on the street, the rumors regarding Xia Sizhu had escalated to Xia Sizhu having an affair with Night King on the street and had been discovered by King Li.

Within the imperial palace, a eunuch waited anxiously not too far away from the banquet. When he saw a familiar carriage slowly arrive, his eyes lit up and he immediately went to greet it.

"Night King, you have finally come. This servant has been waiting for you for a long time." The eunuch looked at the carriage with a happy expression. When he saw the woman coming out of the carriage, he was stunned for a moment.

After Xia Sizhu exited the carriage, she didn't even glance at the eunuch before walking in the direction of the palace banquet. Aunt Liu followed closely behind her.

After waiting for a while, the eunuch couldn't help but step forward and lift the carriage's curtain. The carriage was empty, not even a single person could be seen.

The eunuch's expression was somewhat conflicted. He knew that woman from a moment ago. Wasn't that the Xia Sizhu who had recently been passed down in the palace as having an affair with the Night King?

He originally didn't believe the rumors outside, but when he saw Xia Sizhu step out of the Night King's carriage, he began to waver.

Night King's things had always been untouchable. This was the first time this carriage had anyone other than him, and it was even a woman. This made him have to consider the reliability of those rumors.

The moment Xia Sizhu and Aunt Liu appeared, they became the focus of everyone's attention.

"Why are you so late? Hurry up and ask the Emperor for forgiveness? " Xia Wei looked at Xia Sizhu's bloodstained clothes and her white bow tie. The corner of his eye twitched, and his face couldn't help but twitch.

"No need, take a seat!" The majestic voice of the Emperor sounded out, sparing Xia Sizhu from her formidability.

Xia Sizhu pursed her lips. Seeing that there were still two seats at the side of Xia Wei's seat, she pulled Aunt Liu onto it.

"How did you end up in such a sorry state?" Xia Sizhu asked as soon as she sat down.

Xia Sizhu's appearance made his face pale.

"Master, don't blame Si Zhu, she did this to protect me and the child in my womb." Master, don't blame Si Zhu, she did this to protect me and the child in my womb. Now that she thought about it, she was still afraid. At that moment, she really felt the call of death.

"Are there any major injuries on your hand?" Xia Wei gently patted Aunt Liu's shoulder, comforting the frightened Aunt Liu. He looked at Xia Sizhu with a complicated expression.

"Nope." Xia Wei's slightly gentle tone made Xia Sizhu somewhat uncomfortable. Xia Sizhu softly replied.

Feeling an unfriendly gaze, Xia Sizhu raised her head and met Xia Caixi's somewhat unwilling gaze. The corner of Xia Sizhu's mouth pulled up into a bloodthirsty smile.

Perhaps it was due to her guilt or perhaps it was due to Xia Sizhu's bloodthirsty gaze, but the moment it made contact with Xia Sizhu's gaze, Xia Caixiu lowered her head and restrained the emotions in her heart.

Only her clenched hands revealed the unwillingness and hatred in her heart.

"Your Majesty, this lady is?" As soon as Xia Sizhu appeared, he recognized her. He didn't take his eyes off her until she sat down.
