Chapter 426 Jun Yunting
Chapter 426 Jun Yunting
The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Isn't it a bit hurtful to say that? After all, I am still your elder brother!"
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Brother?"
"Isn't it? Isn't this a coincidence? I was born two years earlier than you." The Seventh Prince said with a smile, "You said before that if I serve as your guard, you would pay me. Now that you have arrived here safely, where is my reward?"
"Yes, I did promise you." Shang Ruoyi said with a smile: "Before leaving today, I deliberately brought the reward with me, thinking that maybe I could meet you."
Yuqing took out a box from the carriage: "Little Princess."
"Here, this is what you want." Shang Ruoyi waved her hand: "I didn't expect you to like it so much, take it!"
The Seventh Prince was overjoyed when he saw this. Dongzhu! Dongzhu! Full of Dongzhu! Dongzhu bigger than pigeon eggs! In his eyes, this small box was filled with a mountain of gold and silver!
He took it with great joy, but before the smile on his face could expand, he felt something was wrong with the thing in his hand.
This weight seems a bit light!
He quickly opened the box, but it was empty!
"Wait! What's in here?"
"what?"
"Dongzhu, Dongzhu!"
"Dongzhu?" Shang Ruoyi smiled. "What Dongzhu? Didn't I say that I would give you this box if you were my bodyguard? Now you're asking me for Dongzhu. What's going on? Are you trying to blackmail me? Because I'm a weak woman and I came to your doorstep, you're trying to bully me?"
The Seventh Prince was speechless for a moment. It was true what he said at that time, but the box was full of Dongzhu at that time, not empty like it is now? If he had known that it was an empty box, he would not have been a guard.
Besides, when did he bully her?
Who dares to bully her!
She is the biological daughter that the emperor's uncle has been looking for for more than ten years. The adopted daughter before was just a little bit similar, but she was so arrogant. Now you are the biological daughter that you have finally found, so you must be spoiled to the sky? Who in the entire Western Regions dares to bully her?
If she was bullied in the morning, the whole family, along with their members and their houses, would disappear from the Western Regions in the evening.
"Don't talk nonsense. When have I ever bullied you? Aunt, you can't go out and tell nonsense. If the emperor's uncle or Jun Zeqian hears it, they will skin me alive." The seventh prince begged for mercy: "Don't say anything nonsense when you see my father and your brother later." Otherwise, he would be in trouble.
The eunuch who led Shang Ruoyi into the palace walked forward, intending to remind her to hurry into the palace and not delay here. However, before he had taken a few steps, he was glared at by the Seventh Prince and his feet were nailed to the spot.
"You go back to the palace first. I will personally take the princess to see my father."
"Yes."
He put the box away and said with a smile, "Whatever my sister says is true, I won't argue."
Just then, a man in a yellow python robe walked over.
"Seventh brother." Prince Jun Yunting of the Western Regions stepped forward and said with a smile, "Why don't you go in from the palace gate?" His eyes fell on Shang Ruoyi who was standing opposite Jun Yunting. At this time, she had her back to him. Jun Yunting did not see her appearance, but seeing that she was wearing palace clothes, he knew which official lady she was.
"Seventh brother, you'd better not be so unmotivated as you are now. You actually flirted with a girl at the palace gate. If the emperor knew about this, he would probably be angry again." Jun Yunting sneered and said, "You'd better not learn from your mother's tricks."
The Seventh Prince heard this, his expression did not change, he just bowed and said: "Crown Prince."
Shang Ruoyi frowned slightly when she saw him like this. She had heard her brother talk about the Seventh Prince.
My mother was not born in a high position. She was lucky enough to be favored by the emperor of the Western Regions and became pregnant with the dragon seed. She was favored by the emperor for a long time. But the good times didn't last long. Suddenly one day, her temperament changed drastically. She was like a madman and almost hurt the emperor. Considering that she gave birth to the seventh prince, she was spared the death penalty and was imprisoned in the seventh prince's mansion.
If this is true, then the person who made his mother go crazy is basically the Queen. The prince was born to the Queen, so to the Seventh Prince, he is an enemy.
"Whose daughter is this? Why don't you kneel before the prince? Where did you learn this rule?" Eunuch Zhao beside Jun Yunting said in a shrill voice, "Why don't you come over and pay your respects?"
The Seventh Prince raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of gloating.
He looked at Shang Ruoyi leisurely, and saw her turn around. There was no change in her expression. She looked at him indifferently, without even a hint of bending her knees.
Eunuch Zhao had never seen her before, but when he looked at her face, he felt it was familiar.
Jun Yunting's gaze fell on her face, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes. There was such a beautiful and charming woman in this world. Just one glance was enough to make people fall in love with her. No wonder his seventh brother stopped her at the palace gate to talk to her.
Eunuch Zhao was about to reprimand him, but Jun Yunting waved his hand, put on what he thought was a very elegant look, and took a step forward.
"I wonder what this young lady's name is? Whose daughter is she? Why is she here at this time?"
Shang Ruoyi glanced at him and said nothing.
"The Crown Prince is asking you a question! Did you not hear it or what?" Eunuch Zhao shook his whisk: "Or are you deliberately not answering? Do you want to be beaten?"
"My father told me that I don't have to put myself in a difficult position after entering the palace. If I don't want to talk, I don't have to talk. If I don't want to see someone, I don't have to see him. If I don't want to do something, I don't have to do it. I just followed my father's teachings. What's wrong with that?" Shang Ruoyi looked at Eunuch Zhao: "You are such an interesting eunuch. Your master is not in a hurry, but you are jumping around here. What's wrong with you?"
Eunuch Zhao was so angry when he heard this that he jumped up and down: "You little girl, you really don't know the rules. You are disrespectful to the prince and have committed crimes. How many heads do you have to be chopped off?"
"Are you blind?" Shang Ruoyi said coldly.
"what?"
"I have several heads, can't you see?" Shang Ruoyi rolled her eyes and said, "Who in this world has two heads? They can only ask questions that even three-year-olds know the answers to."
"you you!"
Eunuch Zhao is a popular figure around the prince. Normally, few people dare to mess with him. This is probably the first time he has been scolded like this.
"You, you, you, what?" Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "My father said I don't have to kneel. Why, no?"
"Of course not!" Eunuch Zhao shouted, "Come here! Drag her away! Give her a hundred lashes!"
After a hundred blows, even a grown man wouldn't be able to bear it, let alone a woman.
The Seventh Prince's eyes darkened slightly: "Eunuch Zhao, do you know who she is?"
