Chapter 535: Justified Blackmail

The two of them bought two lanterns, avoided the crowd, and walked towards the moat.

Looking from a distance, the lights on the moat are like the bright Milky Way, which is very beautiful.

“There are already so many, will God be too busy to come here?” Shen Nian said funnyly.

She squatted down, carefully lit the lantern, and looked up at Xiao Zhi.

Xiao Zhi lifted up his robe, imitated the girl's appearance, half-crouched down, and said calmly: "Sincerity leads to spiritual success."

Shen Nian: "Why do I think you believe this?"

 She said casually, and Xiao Zhi paused for a moment.

"Um."

A hum came from his nose, but the man didn't explain much.

he believe.

 It is true that Nian Nian returns to him.

They put on the lanterns, watched the lanterns go away, looked at each other, and laughed in unison.

This scene fell into the eyes of a group of dandies. Suddenly, some were happy and others were sad.

“Quack, quack, quack, I won, give money, give money, Crown Prince Xiao and Princess Rongan are in love, there is no coercion, power trading, selling daughters for glory...”

 Everyone else has the face of a late mother.

He weighed the purse around his waist and felt reluctant to part with it.

The little man who spoke put his hands on his hips with determination and urged: "Hurry up, hurry up, I'm willing to admit defeat, don't try to cheat!"

Having said all this, people who lose bets can’t afford to refuse to pay and hand over their things obediently.

 The dandy who loses nine out of ten bets and rarely wins once smiles with big white teeth.

This group of people were like thieves, hiding in the dark and rustling around, and had long been noticed by Shen Nian and Xiao Zhi.

 The two men came quietly and stood behind them.

"Where's the bet?" Shen Nian asked, pretending to be curious and knowing everything.

  “!”

 A group of dandies were so frightened that they almost bit off their tongues and staggered back a few steps.

The real owner, who they gossiped about until they saw him, was looking at them with his arms crossed, as if he had been splashed with cold water, which made his heart feel cold.

 “Xiao, Prince Xiao…”

 “Rong, Princess Rong’an…”

 Everyone was frightened and stuttered.

Shen Nian looked at them one by one, with clear and lively eyes and a soft voice.

“People say that birds of a feather flock together, and that’s true. No, friends who stutter will also stutter.”

 The dandies looked at each other.

                                ?)

 Princess Rongan is scolding them?

You stuttered because you sighed in your heart, and your whole family stutters...

However, looking at Prince Xiao who looked at them with pale eyes and half-smile but not a smile, none of the arrogant dudes dared to let go of anything.

They used to hang out with Yin Zhang. Ever since Yin Zhang had one of his arms chopped off by Prince Xiao in public, all the dandies in Zhongdu have done their duty in front of Xiao Zhi.

"Princess Rongan is joking, aren't we scared by you and Prince Xiao? Let's leave now and won't disturb you two..." said a rather clever person.

"What's the hurry?" Shen Nian's words made the **** who was about to run away freeze in place.

“Princess Rongan, what are your orders?”

"I don't dare to obey the orders." Shen Nian smiled slightly, with a fox-like cunning light in his eyes, "I heard that you are making a bet, so call me."



The person who spoke thought quickly and expressed his loyalty on the spot, "The princess thinks highly of us when she lets us take her. Of course we are willing, but as a married woman, it's not good for you to make a bet with others."

"It's okay, I don't mind." Shen Nian said.

You don’t mind, we do.

The dudes who just want to go home want to cry.

"What? Can't I join?" Shen Nian pressed forward step by step.

 The dandies were silent.

They looked at each other quietly, took off all the valuables on their bodies, wrapped them up, and thought about them all.

"Princess Rongan, we know we were wrong, and we should treat this as an apology. Just pretend that this didn't happen today."

 Especially aware of current affairs. Shen Nian nodded with satisfaction, put the things away, and waved them away.

The dudes were relieved. After walking a few steps, the clear and sweet voice sounded again.

  “I don’t like it when people are trying to pit me against people I know.”

The voice is soft and light, revealing the softness of a girl.

 But anyone can hear the warning in these words.

No matter what they think in their hearts, these dandies just obey.

After they left, Shen Nian showed off today's spoils to Xiao Zhi, "It's all for nothing. Let Ahua go to give porridge outside the city tomorrow."

 She doesn’t feel guilty at all for blackmailing those dudes.

He dared to make a bet between her and her family, Xiao Jinzhi, which was so audacious.

 Xiao Zhi said slowly: "Okay."

On the bridge not far away, people walked by in twos and threes, each dressed exquisitely and with a smile on their face.

 It is indeed the most popular festival for unmarried men and women.

Even if the wind picks up, it can’t dampen everyone’s excitement.

Xiao Zhi turned sideways to block the blowing wind and asked in a warm voice: "Is it cold?"

 “It’s not cold.” Shen Nian said.

To prove that she was really not cold, she stretched out her hand and put it on Xiao Zhi's exposed chin.

 “Is it hot or not?”

The little girl's hands were soft, slippery, and warm, and Xiao Zhi's whole body was about to melt.

 The deep voice added a hint of hoarseness, "I didn't feel it, how about you do it again?"

The voice is sour and sultry.

Shen Nian glanced at him and said, "What are you afraid of?"

After saying that, he took the extra step to support the man's handsome face with his hands, and stuffed his hands into his neck.

 “Do you feel it now?”

 The little girl’s eyebrows and eyes are flying, full of bright beauty.

 Xiao Zhi stopped when he saw that it was good, "Well, I can feel it, it's warm."

It was so hot that he was almost sweating.

Not daring to think too much, the calm and dignified prince changed the subject, "Aren't you interested in Master Hui'an of Chengtian Temple? I will take you to the temple tomorrow?"

Shen Nian stopped fussing and his eyes lit up. Just as he was about to respond, he remembered that she had promised to accompany her eldest brother to Yuehan Academy.

 “Let’s go to Yuehan Academy some other time. I want to accompany my eldest brother.”

Xiao Zhi knew that Shen Nian was inspecting the academy for his younger brother in advance, so he chuckled and recommended himself, "You need a painter. What you write is always not as clear as what you draw."

"If necessary, let's go together tomorrow?" Shen Nian said with a smile.

"Can."

 Early the next morning, Liu Ji was stunned when he saw Prince Xiao.

 “Your Majesty, what is this?”

Prince Xiao smiled reservedly, "There is no crown prince today, only Princess Rongan's painter."

Liu Ji: You are so proud.

Without looking at Prince Xiao's face, which was already flat without a hint of anger, Liu Ji helped his sister, who was smiling with crooked eyebrows, into the carriage.

 The carriage drove off, followed by a group of disciplined men—

This is Liu Guogong's personal bodyguard, specially sent out to protect his good daughter.

Liu Ji’s mouth twitched when he saw it.

 This kind of scene has not been seen in more than ten years...!

People in Zhongdu were also surprised. Some elderly people had hot eyes and shed tears.

Some people from out of town were curious when they saw the big guys with their mouths wide open, as if they could swallow eggs.

"What's going on here?"

 No one answered him.

 “Who are these people, and why do they all look like this?”

 Still no one paid attention to him.
