Chapter 250 Xier is unhappy. Is she jealous?
Inside the magnificent princess's mansion, everything was quiet and silent, but beneath this seemingly calm surface, there were actually undercurrents and turbulent waves.
Suddenly, a sturdy guard rushed through the long corridor like a gust of wind, like a stone thrown into a lake, instantly breaking the apparent peace and tranquility.
His steps were hurried and disorderly, and he ran straight to the deepest part of the main courtyard.
"Princess, something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!" The guard's voice was trembling, like a raging storm, and it quickly spread to every inch of the courtyard, even startling a few birds that were originally perched on the branches. They flapped their wings and flew away in panic.
At this moment, Princess Pingyi was leisurely savoring tea in the courtyard.
After hearing this sudden shout, her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, revealing a hint of displeasure.
She was holding an exquisitely crafted teacup in her hand. She raised her arm slightly, then swung it violently. The teacup flew out like an arrow, drew a graceful arc, and landed accurately at the guard's feet.
In an instant, the crisp and pleasant sound of shattering echoed all around, interweaving with the panicked screams of the guards, forming an extremely sharp and piercing noise.
"How dare you! What happened? How dare you shout here and disturb my peace! I'm fine now!" Princess Pingyi's tone was as cold as snow, chilling and contained an irresistible majesty.
The guard knelt on the ground, his forehead scratched by the flying porcelain fragments, a trace of bright red quietly seeped out, but he didn't even have the courage to wipe it off. He just lowered his head and replied in a trembling voice: "Princess, we who secretly followed Murong Zixi were accidentally discovered by her. Not only were we captured, but we are also... heading towards the princess's mansion."
"What? A bunch of trash!" Princess Pingyi's face suddenly changed when she heard that, but her anger was as hard to contain as a volcanic eruption.
She stood up suddenly, and her luxurious long dress swayed gently with her movements, as if even the air was vibrating.
Just when the atmosphere was extremely tense, the butler appeared at the right time. With steady steps and an elusive look on his face, he bowed and reported: "Princess, the War King of Dongyang State and his fiancée want to see you." As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became even more subtle.
Princess Pingyi curled her lips in a sneer that contained both disdain and calculation.
She turned her head to look at Wang Fengti who was silently standing beside her. This military advisor behind the princess always gave her the most accurate advice at critical moments.
Wang Fengti approached gently and whispered a few words into Princess Pingyi's ear. Princess Pingyi's eyes gradually became sinister and deep, and finally turned into a sinister smile.
"Okay, I will make sure they never come back. You go and prepare." Princess Pingyi's voice was low and resolute, as if she had already laid a net of heaven and earth in her heart.
Upon hearing this, Wang Fengti immediately took the order and left.
"Butler, let them in and greet them in the front hall." Princess Pingyi returned to her usual indifference, but the undercurrent hidden beneath the calm was enough to strike fear into anyone's heart.
The steward was ordered to leave.
In the front yard hall, Murong Zixi and Jun Feimo and their group were brought into the hall by the housekeeper and sat side by side.
As the sound of light footsteps approached from afar, Princess Pingyi slowly walked into the hall.
She walked to the main seat and sat down gracefully. The moment her eyes met Jun Feimo, her eyes lit up instantly.
Murong Zixi saw it all, and for some reason, she suddenly felt an indescribable feeling of annoyance in her heart. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, revealing an extremely imperceptible cold smile.
"Tianyi, return the person to Princess Pingyi immediately." Her voice seemed to come from the Nine Nether Cold Pond, without any emotional fluctuations.
Tianyi understood what he meant and moved as fast as lightning. In a blink of an eye, he threw the two subdued men to the ground in the spacious hall.
Only a dull crash was heard, instantly breaking the originally quiet and peaceful atmosphere in the room.
Princess Pingyi frowned slightly, and her beautiful eyes first slowly moved away from Jun Feimo, and then turned to the two people lying on the ground. Her tone was mixed with some doubts and innate majesty: "The King of War of Dongyang State has come from afar to visit Chu State. I will warmly entertain you with the highest standards of etiquette. However, what exactly do you want to do this time?"
Jun Feimo was initially a little dissatisfied with the princess's overly direct and undisguised gaze, but when he caught a glimpse of Murong Zixi's expression, Xier was unhappy. Was she jealous?
Unconsciously, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He did not respond directly, but just watched his Xier's performance lovingly.
