Chapter 141
But when Lin Zaozao's gaze fell on Princess Qianyue walking ahead, she calmly suppressed her underlying doubts.
She decided to save these questions for when she returned and slowly ask Han Ye.
She refused to believe that any woman would rather be a maid in someone else's home than aspire to be the queen in her own.
There must be something fishy going on here, and she wasn't buying it.
"Princess Mingzhu, the Hundred Flowers Garden of the palace is just ahead. My queen and the young ladies and gentlemen from prestigious families are all waiting for you inside."
"Are we there yet? Oh! My back is so sore! Han Ye, could you give me a massage? I'm uncomfortable."
With a coy voice, Lin Zaozao spoke while pinching her throat.
Seeing the subtle signal Lin Zaozao sent him, Han Ye's lips curled up slightly, his eyes filled with a playful glint. He slowly reached out his hand and gently massaged Lin Zaozao's back.
Taking advantage of this moment while Han Ye was bending down, Lin Zaozao looked at him and whispered.
"Han Ye, why do I have a feeling that this flower-viewing banquet arranged by the Female Emperor of Fengshuo Country feels like a trap?
Just look at Princess Qianyue's eyes filled with hatred, as if she wants to devour me alive. I can't shake off the feeling that this banquet is more than meets the eye."
"Mingzhu, no matter what happens at the flower-viewing banquet, feel free to enjoy yourself. Whatever happens, I'll handle it.
As for the Female Emperor of Fengshuo, don't consider her as family. Because she simply isn't worthy."
"Alright, Han Ye. Are you saying that no matter how I cause a scene, you can handle it?"
"That's right."
"Hehehe! That's good to hear. To be honest, I really don't want to pretend to be a lady. It's not my thing to begin with, and it feels so awkward to act all prim and proper."
Lin Zaozao sat up from Han Ye's embrace, and as she looked at Princess Qianyue, her eyes were filled with mischief.
That damn Princess Qianyue nearly burned her precious little darling, Fantian, in the border city. If she doesn't use this damn flower-viewing banquet to teach her a lesson, then she's not Lin Zaozao.
With the support of Dashan, Lin Zaozao hiked up her dress and jumped off the carriage.
But as Lin Zaozao, with Dashan and Han Ye, lifted her foot to enter the Hundred Flowers Garden, she was stopped by Princess Qianyue's subordinate, a man named Lvzhi.
"Princess Mingzhu, you cannot bring guards to this flower-viewing banquet. Besides, your guard is so ugly, it would ruin the atmosphere!"
Lin Zaozao looked into Lvzhi's eyes, full of disdain for Dashan, and her anger surged.
Damn it, she considered Dashan as her own brother. Since Dashan was her brother, he was Lin Zaozao's family.
And now her family was being insulted by a malevolent man dressed in green!
You can bear with an uncle, but you can't bear with an aunt. Lin Zaozao couldn't bear with it even more.
Lin Zaozao walked right up to Lvzhi, lightly pinching his face with two fingers, and after examining him for a moment, she said.
"So, you're Lvzhi!"
"In response to Princess Mingzhu, I am Lvzhi, Princess Qianyue's subordinate."
Lvzhi, through Lin Zaozao's body, glanced at Han Ye standing behind her and confidently said, "Lvzhi, it seems like your eyes are not blind! How dare you say that Dashan, my family, is ugly!"
Facing Lvzhi's puzzled expression, Lin Zaozao disdainfully released her hand from Lvzhi's face and wiped her fingers on his clothes, pointing at him from top to bottom, saying, "Lvzhi, even if there's no mirror here, would you like to urinate on the spot and see your own ghostly appearance?
Let's talk about it. You have big eyes, a flat forehead, a collapsed nose, no chest, no buttocks, and no neck. You walk with a hunched back like a short stubby person. Wearing green clothes from head to toe, you look like a turtle shell.
If you stand here, those who know you might still consider you a human, but those who don't know you would think you're a patch of green moss growing here!
You say, with such an ugly appearance, you can still enter, but my Dashan has an upright figure and handsome looks. Why can't he enter?"
Lin Zaozao's words immediately made Dashan, who was originally angry, happy. Just as he thought!
He, Dashan, still had a masculine charm! Otherwise, why would his little master praise him like this?
In contrast to Dashan's happiness, Princess Qianyue and Lvzhi were so angry that their facial features twisted.
Lvzhi was well-known on the list of handsome men in Fengshuo Country. But now, in the mouth of this Pearl Princess, he was no longer recognized as a person.
But when Lvzhi saw the smile on Han Ye's face, he could only lower his head in frustration and consider himself unlucky.
What could he do? The person scolding him in front of him was his master, Lin Zaozao. Unfortunately, his master didn't know his identity as a spy!
Seeing Lvzhi's angry expression, Lin Zaozao retorted without courtesy, "What's wrong? Little turtle shell, did I say anything wrong? You and your husband have the same twisted expressions, both incredibly ugly.
No wonder people often say that if you're not a family, you won't enter the same door. Looking at both of you wearing the same green clothes, plus the crying faces you both have, you're truly ugly to the extreme."
"Princess Qianyue, you better watch your words!"
Princess Qianyue pointed at Lin Zaozao and angrily growled, "Oh, oh, oh! Princess Qianyue, don't you want your chicken claws anymore? How dare you point at me! After I enter later, I'll go to your mother and complain about you. I wonder if she will take out her little whip and give you a beating again."
"You..."
"What's wrong, Big Busty Qianyue? Are you unhappy now? If you don't want us to enter the Hundred Flowers Garden, then I'll leave now. It's just about appreciating flowers! I'll go home and appreciate my little peach blossom!
My little peach blossom has a slender waist, long legs, and a perky butt. It's much prettier than the lousy flowers here."
After speaking, Lin Zaozao took Han Ye and Dashan's hands, pretending to be ready to leave.
She didn't believe that Princess Qianyue's goal hadn't been achieved, and she was worth letting her leave so easily.
And sure enough, the next second...
"Wait, wait, Sister Mingzhu. My husband and I were impulsive just now. Please don't mind."
Lin Zaozao turned around and looked at Lvzhi and Princess Qianyue, who were bowing their heads in apology. After giving them a smirk, he immediately wiped the smile off his face and spoke coldly.
"I really mind this little turtle shell. He just insulted my dear Dashan, what should we do? After all, I am Mingzhu, and I was not born magnanimous!"
Princess Qianyue, Lvzhi: "..."
Seeing Lvzhi's bewildered expression, Lin Zaozao pinched his fingers and said to him,
"Little turtle shell, you just insulted my dear Dashan, which caused irreparable harm to his young heart.
Such a big injury needs to be resolved with money, got it? Little turtle shell!"
Lvzhi looked at the raised eyebrows of Lin Zaozao, and his mouth involuntarily twitched.
The princess before him is the future ruler of Han Country and also his master, Qianyue.
With the clothes and jewelry she's wearing right now, they are worth at least a fortune. She's so rich, yet she's now asking him for money!
Seeing her demanding money from him, he really felt helpless!
If possible, he really wanted to cling to her thigh and tell her that he is just a pitiful and helpless spy!
When Lvzhi met Han Ye's smiling eyes, he could only lower his head slightly and pretend to be resentful.
"What's wrong? Little bastard, are you speechless because you don't have money or because you don't want to give this princess money?"
Facing Lin Zaozao's fierce gaze, Princess Qianyue quickly stood in front of her lord and smiled apologetically.
"Sister Mingzhu, how much compensation do you think is appropriate for me?"
"Not much, they all say one word is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Your ugly husband insulted my dear Dashan, so you should compensate me with ten thousand taels of gold! Isn't that too little?
To be honest, it's because this princess is beautiful and kind-hearted, and I don't like to argue with you. If you encounter someone else, they will definitely swindle you until you don't even have a pair of underpants left!"
Facing Lin Zaozao's teasing gaze, Princess Qianyue forced a smile, gritting her teeth.
"Not much, not much at all."
"Since it's not much, then give me gold! After all, your mother, my dear aunt, is waiting for me inside!
If you keep dragging this on, the flowers inside will wither. Once the flowers wither, what use is there for this princess to reward you with flowers?"
Princess Qianyue looked at Lin Zaozao's outstretched hand, thought for a moment, and reluctantly suppressed her anger, smiling apologetically.
"Sister Mingzhu, but I don't have any silver notes on me right now. I can't give it to you."
"That's simple! If you don't have silver notes, then give me an IOU. After the Flower Banquet is over, you can bring ten thousand taels of gold to me. How about that?"
"Fine, no problem."
Princess Qianyue said with a fake smile.
Seeing that Princess Qianyue agreed, Lin Zaozao beckoned behind him, and immediately a guard came forward with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
"Princess Qianyue, please! Remember, it's ten thousand taels of gold, not silver."
Hearing Lin Zaozao's teasing voice, Princess Qianyue gritted her teeth and had no choice but to sign the IOU.
Lin Zaozao held the signed promissory note and blew a sigh of frustration at the unfinished one lying next to it.
"Princess Qianyue, if you and your despicable husband dare to insult anyone again, feel free to come find me.
Next time, I'll give you a discount. I'll charge you only a thousand taels of silver for every curse word. How about that? A good deal, isn't it?
You see, this princess has a kind heart. Even when someone insults me, I still offer them a discount. Truly, there's no one as benevolent as me in this world."
After saying that, Lin Zaozao handed the promissory note to Dashan with delight.
"Dashan, keep the promissory note signed by Princess Qianyue safe. It's worth ten thousand gold. Don't lose it. When they bring the money to our door, that ten thousand gold will be your pocket money."
"Alright, young master."
Once Dashan had safely kept the promissory note, Lin Zaozao led him and Hanye towards the Hundred Flowers Garden.
This time, Lvzhi, the person in green attire, didn't dare to stop Dashan anymore.
"Those two idiots have such limited strength, yet they still dare to defy me. They must have been born with their heads and bottoms swapped, or else they wouldn't have been so audacious in front of me earlier.
That Qianyue girl is so foolish. She should be tied up in a pigsty and fed pig food. It's such a waste of the flesh on her chest and buttocks."
As Lin Zaozao passed by Princess Qianyue, she muttered disdainfully.
