Chapter 171 The Waiter
There were many guards on both sides, at least ten, not to mention the two leaders on horseback in front and the line of guards behind the carriage.
If a fight were to break out, even in this bustling city street, it would be difficult to escape easily.
Moreover, he is still presenting himself as Fusu at this moment. If he causes trouble, it may implicate innocent people in Renhetang and Yanzhitang.
As time went by, the carriage had been traveling for nearly half an hour, but they still hadn't reached their destination.
Su Fuying's hands were starting to ache, and she thought to herself: Logically speaking, she should have arrived at the north side of the city long ago by now, having walked from the south to the north.
Just then, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Commander Qi's respectful voice came from outside: "Your Highness, we have arrived."
Upon hearing this news, Su Fuying finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought to herself: If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to control my emotions, and I might even cut off the princess's head.
Upon hearing this, the eldest princess slowly sat up and gracefully extended a snow-white arm.
Su Fuying was stunned upon seeing this...
Why does this scene seem so familiar?
"Your Highness, please."
Su Fuying quickly stepped forward to help her up and carefully picked up the clothes on the ground to put on her.
The princess's expression grew even gentler, her gaze towards Su Fuying filled with approval and satisfaction.
"By the way, I still don't know your name."
Before disembarking from the carriage, the eldest princess suddenly turned around and asked a question.
Su Fuying quickly lowered his head and replied, "This humble subject is Fusu."
"Fusu?"
The princess softly repeated his name, a slight smile playing on her lips, "On the mountain grows the hibiscus, in the marsh grows the lotus."
"What a great name."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness."
Su Fuying lowered her head, realizing that when she had haphazardly chosen her name, she had simply taken the first part of her own name without considering its meaning.
After getting off the carriage and looking up, I was surprised to find that the street looked familiar. Wasn't the Regent's Palace right next door?
The street behind was his own residence. He hadn't left the house for a while and didn't even know that the Princess was living there.
...
The main problem is that the distance that should have taken two incense sticks to burn took half an hour to cover.
Speechless. It's obvious they deliberately took a longer route. I don't know whether to praise the princess's subordinates for being sensible or what.
"Fusu, come here."
The eldest princess suddenly called out to Su Fuying, who was about to walk to the side, in a gentle voice.
She waved to Su Fuying, her eyes revealing an undeniable air of authority.
Su Fuying gritted his teeth, pondering to himself. He glanced around and slowly walked towards her.
"Your Highness is back..."
"Your Highness, I miss you so much..."
As Su Fuying stepped into the mansion, a rich fragrance wafted towards her.
Immediately afterwards, a noisy chattering sound came from my ears.
He looked closely and saw a group of men with their clothes half-undone and faces covered in makeup!
Men? Su Fuying stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the group of men in disbelief.
At the same time, the men who were originally about to rush forward also noticed Su Fuying's presence.
One of the handsome men suddenly had tears welling up in his eyes, looking at the princess with a pitiful expression: "Your Highness~ who is this?"
His voice carried a hint of grievance and sorrow, which made people feel pity for him.
Faced with such questioning, the princess's expression remained unchanged, still as cold as ice.
Her tone carried a hint of warning as she coldly replied, "This is my guest."
"As ordered."
The men reluctantly agreed, but their eyes held obvious hostility. Su Fuying wanted to cry out that she was innocent; they were male prostitutes, not her.
Before coming, I only thought that given the princess's personality, she probably wanted her medicine formula.
I never imagined that I would fall for her...
"Fusu, come here with me."
The eldest princess grabbed Su Fuying's hand, clearly pleased by Su Fuying's surprise.
Su Fuying followed the princess directly to her bedchamber. Pink gauze curtains fluttered in the wind, and the scent of incense made one feel dizzy.
"Your Highness, I suddenly remembered something amiss at home..."
Embarrassed, she gripped the ground with her toes. She couldn't let the princess ruin her innocence. Most importantly, if the princess found out she was born a girl, who knew how crazy she would go?
Having observed the area since entering, I can see that the guards at the Princess's residence are as impenetrable as a fortress; escaping would be quite difficult.
"Young Master Fusu, are family matters more important than this prince's?"
The eldest princess was somewhat displeased, and as she spoke, she gently leaned towards Su Fuying.
Unable to dodge in time, Su Fuying was suddenly embraced by the princess. A strong scent of incense filled her nostrils, causing Su Fuying to wince uncomfortably.
Before she could push him away, the princess's fair hands, like little snakes, climbed onto Su Fuying's shoulders.
"Princess!"
Su Fuying froze, grabbed the hand on her buttocks, and a blush quickly spread across her cheeks.
More than anything, there was anger. Damn it, what kind of den of dragons and tigers is this?
"You dare shout at me!"
The princess's expression darkened; she was clearly startled by Su Fuying's angry roar.
"I've been around for so long, do you even know how old you are now, the person who yelled at me?"
Su Fuying quickly pushed the person away, took a few steps back, gritted her teeth and said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness, I am just feeling a little unwell."
"Not feeling well? What, you're here and you want to leave?"
The princess's tone turned cold, and her gaze fell unhappily on Su Fuying. If it weren't for this person's good looks, she wouldn't still be alive today.
Since she arrived in the capital, the emperor has sent so many men to her residence, both openly and secretly, but none of them have caught her eye.
Apart from the one who just spoke, who was slightly better, compared to those men she encountered outside the Great Wall, he was like the moon in the sky.
I finally found someone I liked today, how dare I reject her?
"Please forgive me, young master. It is my honor to have gained the princess's favor, but..."
"Your Highness, this is bad, Your Highness!"
The guards' anxious voices called from outside, making the princess's already displeased face even more unpleasant.
"What's the noise about?"
The princess's rebuke made the guard outside tremble. He knew he had disturbed the princess's good time, but if it weren't for the fact that the matter was so important that the princess would have to be invited, he wouldn't have dared to disturb her at this time.
"Your Highness, news has arrived from the palace."
The visitor didn't explain what it was about, but the implied meaning must be something serious, something Su Fuying couldn't bear to hear.
The princess thought of something, her face darkening. She clutched the clothes that had slipped off her shoulder and gave Su Fu a cold look. "I'll deal with you when I get back."
Su Fuying quickly lowered her head and stopped talking.
I couldn't help but feel fortunate that this person arrived at just the right time; otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do.
