Chapter 2534: The Princess Consort Is Too Fierce
At this moment, she was both in pain and angry, but being pinned down and beaten by Xuexue, she had no choice but to plead for mercy to save her life.
The surrounding onlookers watched with great interest, discussing amongst themselves...
"This time it’s bad, Princess Consort of War Prince has truly offended Old Master Gu."
"Indeed! Don’t be fooled by Aunt Yu’s current miserable state; she’s Old Master Gu’s most favored concubine. If she whispers into his ear, the Princess Consort of War Prince will have a lot to endure."
Long Yi, listening nearby, felt uneasy. This was truly troublesome; of all people, Princess Consort of War Prince had offended Old Master Gu.
This Old Master Gu is not only a wealthy man in Moli Country, but his business extends across the Four Kingdoms. All the Emperors of the Four Kingdoms treat him with consideration. Given that Old Master Gu is currently residing in Moli Country, if anything happens to his family, the Emperor will surely intervene to seek justice for him. If you think about it, War Prince and the Emperor would definitely clash again.
Thinking of this, Long Yi broke out in a cold sweat. The Prince’s relationship with the Emperor is already strained, and if things become worse due to this, it wouldn’t be good for anyone.
"Princess Consort! Princess Consort! Stop immediately, you can’t hit her!" Long Yi tried to squeeze through the crowd with both hands to stop the Princess Consort from hitting Aunt Yu, but there were so many people that he could only make it halfway through.
"Hiss...!"
Suddenly, amidst the sound of hoofbeats and horse neighing, the crowd unexpectedly parted, and just as Long Yi wondered why, someone shouted loudly, "The Prince is here, War Prince is here!"
The Master has arrived, and Long Yi was overjoyed. With the Prince around, the situation could surely be controlled.
Long Rui leapt off his galloping horse, like an arrow shot from a bow, towards the center of the crowd.
Xuexue was hitting vigorously, when she suddenly felt herself being lifted. Without thinking, she swung a punch.
Long Rui ducked to avoid it and grabbed her wrist, laughing, "My lady, are you trying to murder your husband?"
"Is it you?"
Xuexue finally saw clearly and realized that the person who picked her up was Long Rui. Remembering how close he had been with Gu Lingqiao earlier, she was still a bit angry.
"Prince, how do you have time to come out, don’t you need to be with your childhood sweetheart?"
"My lady, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Am I really talking nonsense? But just now, you two..."
"What are you thinking?" Then, Long Rui suddenly leaned in and whispered something in her ear, making Xuexue’s face change from gloomy to sunny, and she suddenly became very gentle: "Why tell me."
"It was decided on the spot."
"Humph!"
"My lady, is your hand hurting?"
"A bit. This woman’s flesh is too thin, it made my hand hurt."
Surrounded by onlookers, Long Rui didn’t care and pulled Xuexue’s small hand to his mouth to blow on it, tenderly saying, "My lady is too silly, next time you’re upset, don’t do it yourself, let me do it. My skin is thick and rough, I’m happy to serve my lady."
Everyone was speechless, deeply realizing that War Prince isn’t just indulgent of the Princess Consort of War Prince, he’s downright spoiling her.
The Princess Consort of War Prince injured someone, and War Prince wasn’t concerned about the injured but about whether the Princess Consort hurt her hand.
This indulgence was so much that everyone realized never to offend the Princess Consort in the future, because offending her was like offending the Prince.
Aunt Yu lay on the ground crying in pain, and only then did the maid who accompanied her dare to help her up.
Earlier, the Princess Consort of War Prince was too fierce, sweeping like a whirlwind, knocking Aunt Yu down in the blink of an eye, scaring them half to death. They were shivering at the side and only came out once it was safe.
