Chapter 14: The Savage Princess
Night, quiet and lonely.
There was a 'click', a gust of wind hit, and the windows opened.
Rong Jiumu opened her eyes, she had always slept lightly, and she would wake up at the slightest sound.
Amu, isn't the window closed properly?
Rong Jiu thought about it, but vaguely felt a sound of light footsteps coming towards her.
The sudden feeling of pressure and fear made her body unable to move, so she could only subconsciously close her eyes and try to restrain her rapid breathing due to nervousness.
In the middle of the night, it can't be an assassin, right? But I didn't offend anyone, it's over, I'm going to die here!
The footsteps got closer and closer, until they reached the bed, and then stopped.
Rong Jiu struggled to adjust his breathing to make it look like he was asleep, but he was thinking about how to knock him off before he touched him.
However, the person in front of the bed never took the next step.
I don't know how long later, the sound of light footsteps sounded again, but it was leaving, until she heard the sound of the window closing, Rong Jiu opened her eyes, her tense body also relaxed, and her light clothes were already soaked in cold sweat.
Nima, this is also too scary! Fortunately, it's not terrible! Rong Jiu patted his violently heaving chest and exhaled heavily.
In the early morning of the second day, when Rong Jiu was still asleep, Amu came over and asked her to get up.
"Oh, good Amu, let me squint for a while!" Rong Jiu buried his head in the quilt and shouted in a daze.
"No, princess, have you forgotten that you promised the prince that they would get up early for breakfast, and now the princes are already waiting in the hall, princess, if you don't get up again, the eldest prince will definitely talk about it again."
Amu said anxiously while pulling the quilt, the princess had been read by the eldest prince for more than an hour because of snooze.
"Ah, why am I so miserable~" Rong Jiu scratched his unkempt hair, looking loveless.
After the assassin left last night, she didn't dare to sleep again, for fear that he would come back, so she stayed up until dawn before she fell asleep in a daze, and then she didn't sleep for long, and was woken up again, but compared to sleeping lazy, she was more afraid of Rong Le's broken thoughts!
"Didn't the princess go to bed quite early last night, why is she so haggard?" Ah Mu looked at Rong Jiu's haggard face, and he was very distressed.
"Not yet... It's not like I had a nightmare last night, I haven't slept all night. ”
Rong Jiu sighed, it's better not to say anything about the assassin, after all, judging from the situation last night, it shouldn't be here to assassinate her, and the current situation is not clear, if it is said, the brothers will definitely be babbling, and things will definitely have to make a big deal at that time!
"Amu remembers that the princess never seems to have had nightmares, why did she start having nightmares when she got here?" Amu said worriedly, after all, in Xining, it is unlucky to have nightmares.
"That's because there's an annoying spirit here!" Rong Jiu thought of Song Moci, who had been pestering her for the past few days, and only felt a headache.
"The third prince is indeed a little annoying, but don't worry, the princess, Amu will never let him get close to you within three steps in the future!" Amu said righteously, the people that the princess hates are the people she Amu hates!
"Okay Amu, it's a shame that I didn't hurt you in vain!"
As soon as he said this, Rong Jiu suddenly felt a lot more energetic and not so sleepy.
After breakfast, the brothers entered the palace because of Song Mian's summons, and there was only one Rong Jiu left in the huge mansion.
Without her brothers by her side, Rong Jiu was really bored, although she really wanted to go out to play, but when she thought of being entangled by that kraft candy after going out, she felt that it was better to stay at home honestly.
But she hadn't seen Song Moting for several days, and it was estimated that Song Moting had forgotten about her if she continued like this, which was absolutely not good!
"Princess, someone just sent a post over." The doorman hurriedly ran over and handed the post with butterflies in his hand to Rong Jiu.
"Posts? Who is it? Rong Jiu took it suspiciously, only to see that it was written: Yunxiang Building No. 3 private room, if you are afraid, don't come, stay away from the third prince in the future!
"What's that? Inexplicably, you dare to provoke me! Who sent this post? Rong Jiu threw the post on the ground, thought about it and stepped forward twice.
"This slave doesn't know, it's a little broken boy who sent it, saying that a noble person entrusted him to send it." The doorman silently wiped his sweat.
"The vinegar smell of this post is so obvious, eighty percent of it was sent by the eldest lady who is obsessed with Song Moci, and it is definitely not a good thing to like that kraft candy, hum, I want to see who dares to provoke me!" After a pause, he asked, "Then Song Moci is still blocking the door?" ”
"Yes." The doorman answered.
"Okay, you go down, don't let him in, if he asks me, I'll say I'm not out of the house today." Rong Jiu said, then changed his costume and walked away from the back door with Amu.
In the carriage not far in front of Rongyuan, Song Moci, Mencius and Shen Mingshan were leisurely drinking wine.
"Alas, I said Mo Ci, it's not a matter for you to block people's doors every day, if you want me to say, people don't want to deal with you at all, what kind of beauty do you want, you don't have to rely on this little girl." Mencius brushed the hair in front of his forehead, picked up the wine glass in his hand and drank it all, "Stain, good wine!" ”
"You know what, the more he can't get it, the more he wants it." Shen Mingshan said with a smile.
"I said why do you two talk so much nonsense, I call it love at first sight!" Song Moci scoffed at the words of the two.
"Hahaha, didn't I say you, are you still a little one who falls in love at first sight?" When Mencius heard this, he seemed to have heard a big joke.
"Oh, this time is different, forget it, I won't tell you, you won't understand." Song Moci turned his head a little angrily, raised the window screen and looked out, "It's not a way to wait for this." ”
"What can I do? Kill in? Anyway, you can't even enter the door of other people's houses, okay, okay, I won't wait with you, I'm hungry, go to Yunxiang Tower to eat. ”
Mencius said that he was about to lift the curtain of the car and go out, but was stopped by Rong Moci and Shen Mingshan, "Wait, take me!" ”
"No, it's okay to bring Mingshan, don't you still have to wait for your little princess?" Mencius looked at Song Moci with disgust.
"Oh, let's eat first."
Yunxiang Tower is one of the best restaurants in Jing'an, and it is also equivalent to a modern five-star hotel.
When Rong Jiu arrived, there was no one in the private room, and it took about half an hour for the owner of the post to come late.
"You're Rong Jiu?"
Rong Jiu followed the voice and saw a girl in yellow standing at the door, her skin was brighter than snow, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, and she turned around on the faces of the two of them a few times, and then looked at Rong Jiu directly. This girl's appearance is extremely beautiful, like a pearl faint, beautiful jade shining, and there is a faint air of arrogance and contempt between her eyebrows, which makes people feel a little disgusted when they see it.
"Exactly, you asked someone to send the post?" Rong Jiu picked up the post on the table and slammed it down, and his momentum was not lost to the girl in front of him.
"That's right!" As she spoke, the girl walked straight towards Rong Jiu, but when she saw the footprints on the post, she was so angry that she pointed at Rong Jiu and scolded, "You pariah!" Dare to step on the post of this princess, see that this princess is not good at teaching you! ”
As the girl spoke, she stretched out her hand to Rong Jiu, but before she could touch it, she was stopped by Amu, "Bold, you actually dare to hit my princess!" ”
The girl who was stopped was obviously a little angry, and after breaking free of her hand, she pointed at Amu and scolded, "Presumptuous! You dare to stop me, do you know who I am? I'm the most beloved Princess Mingyu of the Holy Heavens today."
After speaking, his secretly smug gaze wandered between the two, as if he wanted to see the panicked and frightened expressions of the two.
"Oh? You're the legendary princess? Stained stains, look at it today, and it really lives up to its name! Rong Jiu lightly glanced at the girl in front of him, shook his head and smacked his tongue.
"You pariah, you don't hurry up and kowtow when you see this princess, you actually scold me for being a barbaric princess, looking for death!" Pingle's little face was flushed, obviously angry, and he raised his hand and swept towards Rong Jiu, but this time he was caught by Rong Jiu.
"Untouchables? The princess is afraid that she has forgotten? I am also a princess, if I am a pariah, Princess Pingle, you are also a pariah! Kowtow, you should kowtow to me first! Rong Jiu said, and shook Pingle's hand away, only feeling funny in his heart, this girl, her hair has not grown and she still dares to fight with her, how to say that she is also a soul in her twenties.
Only then did Ping Le remember that he only cared about being angry, but he forgot that Rong Jiu was also a princess, and he was being scolded by Rong Jiu like this at the moment, and he felt that he couldn't save face.
"I, I don't care, anyway, you stay away from the third brother in the future, my third brother is not worthy of anyone, do you hear it! Otherwise, or I'll be annoying you every day in the future! Pingle crossed his waist and shouted at Rong Jiu, because he lacked confidence, he could only raise his voice.
"Poof." Rong Jiu was amused by the appearance of Ping Le's puffing.
Pestering her every day? What kind of threat is this, it's been a long time, and this little girl isn't very powerful.
"What are you laughing at! This princess is not joking with you anymore! Mingyu is even more angry now, no one has ever taken her so seriously, this is because she can't use her identity as a princess to suppress her right now.
"I just think you're cute the way you puff and puff." Rong Jiu said with a smile.
It was the first time she was praised by outsiders for being so cute, Mingyu only felt that her face and neck were a little red, but the next second she glared at Rong Jiu and said, "Don't think it's okay if you praise me, I told you you have to stay away from my third brother, do you hear?" ”
"Okay, okay, I promise you, it's been a long time, let's have a cup of tea and rest." Rong Jiu responded, while pouring a cup of tea and handing it to Mingyu.
Mingyu hesitated for a moment, but still took it, because she said so many words, she was indeed a little thirsty!
"You just said yes so easily?" Mingyu looked at Rong Jiu, a little incredulous.
"Of course, but as a princess, you stay in the palace all day, don't you know that I have canceled the marriage contract with the emperor and the third prince?" Rong Jiu played with the quilt in his hand and looked at Mingyu with some amusement.
"What? Are you serious? Mingyu was a little shocked, she really didn't know that there was such a thing, so after listening to that person's words, she came over in a huff.
"What did I lie to you, and ah, not all kinds of people like your third brother."
"The third brother is so good, why don't you like him." Mingyu asked, as if everyone should like their idols.
"And you want me to like it?" Rong Jiu propped his head and asked rhetorically.
"No, no, no, it's not, it's best if you don't like it." When Mingyu heard this, he shook his head like a splashing drum.
