If not abolished

Chapter 245: Acting Anywhere (2)

"Is it her? Then let them come in together?" Zhu Zhanji suddenly changed the subject.

Wu Cheng thought there was something wrong with his ears, so he didn't move for a long time. He turned around and asked again: "You mean they came in together?"

Zhu Zhanji said impatiently: "What's wrong with you today? How many times do you need to listen to me?"

"I will go and tell them right away." Wu Cheng was thinking, what is His Highness going to do today? After a while, he walked out and said to the two outside, "My Lady, His Highness said that he wants you to go in together."

"What, Your Highness, what do you mean? Are you deliberately making things difficult for our Queen today? First you made us wait for so long, and now something like this happens. Is there no first come first served principle in things?" Lingzhi finally spoke after enduring for most of the day.

"Lingzhi, don't be rude." Hu Shanxiang scolded, and then said to Wu Cheng: "General Manager Wu, it's like this. Today, I have something to discuss with His Highness. If there are irrelevant people present, I'm afraid you can go again and explain it to His Highness."

"I understand what Your Majesty said. Please wait a moment." Wu Cheng had been in and out so many times today.

Wu Cheng went in and told Zhu Zhanji what Hu Shanxiang had said to him.

"In that case, let the Crown Princess's people come in first."

"Yes."

At the door, Wu Yingyue looked at Hu Shanxiang and said, "Prince Consort, would you like to make a bet with me to see who His Highness will see first?"

"From your tone, you seem very confident?" Hu Shanxiang was still thinking about how to talk to her, but she didn't expect to bump into her.

"Your Majesty, don't you dare?" Wu Yingyue challenged again.

Hu Shanxiang sneered, "Do you think I'm afraid of you? I'll gamble, but what do I say if I lose?"

"Well, why not let the loser go back in disgrace? Otherwise, it would be so boring to wait here."

"Okay."

The two looked inside and saw Wu Cheng walking out.

"Butler Wu, what does His Highness say?" Wu Yingyue asked first.

Wu Cheng seemed to not know what to say, and stammered, "Well, well, His Highness said that he wanted Miss Wu to come in. Madam, His Highness will see you right away, please wait a moment." Wu Cheng always had a premonition that Hu Shanxiang was holding back. I'm afraid it wouldn't be good today.

"In that case, I will go back first, and Steward Wu will report to His Highness." Hu Shanxiang did not expect that Zhu Zhanji would slap her in the face like this.

After saying this, Hu Shanxiang turned around and left.

"Hey, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please don't..." Wu Cheng chased after her.

"Who allowed you to leave?" Suddenly, Zhu Zhanji's voice came from behind, and Hu Shanxiang's hand was grabbed by someone.

"Let me go. Since you don't want to see me, I'm leaving. Do I need your permission?" Hu Shanxiang said while struggling.

"What are you talking about? What do you think this place is? It's on the street, not just an ordinary vegetable market. You can come and go as you please."

"What about you? First you put on airs and made me wait, and then you went to meet other people. You keep doing this over and over again, so I won't serve you anymore." Seeing that she couldn't break free, Hu Shanxiang gave up struggling.

"No, I was thinking that her matter should be resolved quickly. You have already waited, so why bother about this moment?" Zhu Zhanji frowned, not understanding why she was so angry.

"Oh, Your Highness is right. After all, she was once your friend, so we have a bond."

"What are you talking about again?"

"What did I say? Don't think I don't remember. She used to be your palace maid, right?" Hu Shanxiang said, pointing at Wu Yingyue.

"That's right." Zhu Zhanji nodded.

"That's it. She's more important than me. If you're so partial to her, why don't you put her by your side and give her some status?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? She and I are innocent."

"It's all clear, Your Highness, don't you feel guilty for saying this? Everyone in the palace is talking about you, do you think no one else has heard it?"

"You have to be so unreasonable, don't you?"

"Your Highness, please don't quarrel over me." Wu Yingyue suddenly said.

"Shut up." Zhu Zhanji and Hu Shanxiang said in unison.
