C110

The carriage stopped. The sound of the horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and soon, they stopped beside the carriage.

"The Grand Princess's face?" Ji Yunkai did not exit the carriage and she only ordered the maidservant to open the carriage door.

Apologize?

She did not have a shred of sincerity.

"Prince Yanbei's Wife, you have beaten This Princess' people today." Indeed, the Grand Princess was looking for trouble today.

"What is it? Is the reputation of My Prince not great enough?" With the same words and with the same tone, Ji Yunkai said it right back to the Grand Princess.

"Of course Prince Yanbei has a lot of face…" The Grand Princess did not place Ji Yunkai in her eyes, but she did not dare to step on Xiao Jiu'an's face in front of everyone. What Ji Yunkai wanted to hear was precisely this sentence.

Without waiting for the Grand Princess to finish speaking, Ji Yunkai cut her off, "Since My Prince has enough face, I ask that the Princess give way. You're blocking my way."

Ji Yunkai was not polite at all with her words. She was only a little bit away from saying "a good dog doesn't block the way".

Just because she did not say it out loud did not mean that the Grand Princess did not understand her. As a woman who had grown up in the Imperial Palace, what she was best at was listening to the hidden meaning behind the words. The unsaid words from Ji Yunkai truly angered the Grand Princess.

The Grand Princess said, "Prince Yanbei's Wife, your people were the ones who beat mine. What does that have to do with you? I will give a face to the Prince Yanbei and not cause you any trouble, but the people who did this, you can't just let it go like this." After beating up her people, they wanted to leave. Ji Yunkai was as naive as ever. Naive enough to think that as long as she treated her sincerely, she would be able to get her true love?

In the Imperial Family, there is only self-interest, and sincerity was always fed to the dogs. She did not need Ji Yunkai's sincerity. Ji Yunkai was unable to bring her any benefits, and in her eyes, she was just a useless cripple.

However, Ji Yunkai was a little different today. It seemed that Ji Yunkai was not truly good to her before and that she had her reasons for being good to her.

"Oh? What does the Grand Princess want?" Ji Yunkai calmly asked, completely disregarding the Grand Princess's fury.

The Grand Princess did not hear her, or perhaps she did not care, but said, "I'm the most merciful. A group of beautiful ladies, if they were to be maimed, it wouldn't look good. How about a cut on one's face?"

"Not a bad idea." Ji Yunkai nodded and agreed.

The Grand Princess slightly wrinkled her brow as she felt that something was wrong. Before she could even open her mouth, Ji Yunkai had already continued speaking, "Baoqin, the Princess has already spoken, why haven't you done so yet?"

"Princess Consort?" Baoqin was dumbstruck, she did not understand what was going on with her family's Princess Consort. Why would she readily agree with the Grand Princess?

"What? My words are useless?" Ji Yunkai knew what Baoqin was thinking, but what did it matter?

She also wanted to know where Prince Yanbei's Mansion and the rest had placed her.

Previously, due to various reasons, she had to give in or compromise. However, she did not want to give in anymore, nor did she want to compromise.

In Prince Yanbei's Mansion, she was not the only one who could give in.

"This servant doesn't dare, this servant will cut." Baoqin's face paled and she kneeled with a thump, but she did not dare disobey Ji Yunkai's orders.

Before they left, Xiao Jiu'an's ordered for them to listen to Ji Yunkai's words. There was also Ji Yunkai's earlier viciousness and decisiveness that shocked her, which also caused her to not dare to go against Ji Yunkai.

"Very good!" Ji Yunkai nodded her head in satisfaction.

No woman did not love beauty, and it took courage to cut one's face. However, Baoqin did not hesitate at all. Although they were maidservants, they were trained as soldiers, and all they knew was to carry out orders.

Unfortunately, before the Grand Princess could finish feeling proud, she heard Ji Yunkai shout, "Stupid girl, who asked you to cut your face? Didn't the Grand Princess say that one mustn't let those who make a move go? Didn't that girl make a move on you? Go, put a cut on her face. There's no need to be lenient, in case the Grand Princess face doesn't look good."

"You... you… Ji Yunkai, you're playing with me!" The Grand Princess's laughter suddenly stopped, and she glared at Ji Yunkai.

The hairpin in Baoqin's hand had already pierced the skin on her face. After hearing Ji Yunkai's words, her eyes immediately lit up. She did not care about the pain on her face and crisply replied, "This servant will do as you say!"

Like she thought, how could her Princess Consort suddenly change? So it was she who misunderstood the Princess Consort's intentions!

Baoqin immediately turned back to find the Luo Tao that she kicked away, but just as she turned around, the Grand Princess's whip was flung towards her: "You dare!"

*Pah!* Luckily, Baoqin had some skills and was not stopped.

After the blow missed, the Grand Princess did not continue to fight as to not lose more face. She shouted angrily at Ji Yunkai, "Ji Yunkai, you dare touch my people!"

She was too naive, thinking that Ji Yunkai was treating her well from the bottom of her heart before. Now, it seems that Ji Yunkai's sincerity was simply because she wanted her to speak up for her in front of the Emperor.

She always thought Ji Yunkai was naive and stupid, but now it seemed like she was the one who was naive and stupid. She thought Ji Yunkai was sincere…

"Princess, didn't you come to apologize?" Ji Yunkai did not reply to the Grand Princess's words.

She was not the original owner. She did not care about the Grand Princess' reputation, nor did she care about the Grand Princess' attitude toward her.

"This Princess has already apologized. What else do you want?" The Grand Princess saw that Ji Yunkai was extremely aggressive, and was not trying to please her like before. She felt that she had been deceived, and had been played for a fool.

To be deceived by someone she looked down upon was a form of humiliation to the Grand Princess. She wanted to slap Ji Yunkai to vent her anger.

However, no matter whether it was before or now, Ji Yunkai's identity was very special. Even if she hated Ji Yunkai, she could not give her a beating in public right now. Otherwise, if she were to satisfy her anger now, things would get troublesome later on...
