Chapter 463 Offended
Chapter 463 Offended
After finishing the serious business, Qin Huiyin thought Princess Yuanying would leave, but it turned out that she had no intention of leaving.
"I just heard the music of the zither and the flute. The musicians in your house are quite good. Let them come out and play a piece for me."
She looked so superior and self-righteous, as if Qin Huiyin was her slave.
Qin Huiyin didn't want to cause any more trouble and planned to find an excuse to get away with it.
"My princess, you must have heard it wrong. We don't have any musicians in our house. This must have come from somewhere else."
"I heard that you found a musician to teach you how to play the piano. The sound of piano can often be heard from the Tang residence. I guess the person playing the piano is your master." Princess Yuanying exposed her lie.
The maid angrily scolded, "How dare you deceive the princess? The princess is a princess of wealth and status. Let alone a mere musician, even if she asked you to play, you have no right to refuse."
Qin Huiyin could see that Princess Yuanying's purpose of this visit was to show her power and let everyone in the Tang family know who would be the most influential mistress in the future.
She had also done her homework in advance and had a grasp of the recent actions of the Tang family members, wanting to control everyone in the Tang family under her own control.
"So the princess was talking about my teacher. I do have a zither master, but he left after teaching me just now. It's really unfortunate that the princess came. How about I ask my teacher to play for you next time?"
"Is it really such a coincidence?" the maidservant doubted.
"It's just a coincidence." Zou Huiyin said to Zhilan beside her, "Go and see if my eldest brother has returned. He should be on business at this time. Why don't you go and ask my eldest brother to come back now? It would be inappropriate for my eldest brother, as the host, not to come out and entertain the princess for the first time."
"No thanks." Princess Yuanying refused. "I have something else to do, so let's stop here for today. If I have any other requests next time, I'll contact you again."
Princess Yuanying was still a little afraid of Tang Yichen. When she heard Qin Huiyin wanted to call Tang Yichen back for her, she immediately became obedient and let her maid push her away.
Qin Huiyin stood up, followed Princess Yuanying, and personally escorted her out.
Just as she reached the gate of the courtyard, she saw a big wolf dog rushing out from the side and pounced towards Princess Yuanying.
"Wang..."
"Ah..." Princess Yuanying and her maidservant were both terrified. "Go, go..."
The maid pushed Princess Yuanying's wheelchair.
The big wolfhound pounced again.
The maid squatted down, and Princess Yuanying's wheelchair slid out.
"Ahhh..." Princess Yuanying looked at the pillar in front of her in horror. "Help..."
Bang! She fell out, landing on the ground in a very awkward position.
"Are you all dead?" Princess Yuanying yelled at the guards, "Take me away quickly."
When the big wolf dog pounced again, the guard behind Princess Yuanying hurriedly stopped it.
However, with just one bite, the big wolfhound bit off a piece of flesh from the guard's arm, and a scream was heard immediately.
Zhilan protected Qin Huiyin behind her.
Both the master and the servant were startled by this sudden change.
The other guards quickly escorted Princess Yuanying and her maid onto the carriage, then left the Tang residence at a breakneck speed. The injured guard clutched his injured arm and struggled to catch up with the carriage in front.
Qin Huiyin: "..."
"Attract wealth." A lazy voice sounded.
Qin Huiyin looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhuge Congfeng leaning against the archway, with an elegant posture and a charming and evil look between his brows.
The big wolf dog turned and ran towards him, wagging its tail and trying to be nice in front of him.
Zhuge Congfeng stroked his fur and said to Qin Huiyin, who was still in a daze, "It's useless to be polite to such a shrewd lady. You have to make her afraid of you."
Qin Huiyin: "...Brother, she is frightened now. When she comes to her senses, she will come to trouble us again."
"If you don't fight back, she won't bother you?"
"That won't happen."
"Since you're going to cause trouble, why don't you scare her first? Every time she fights back, you deal with her again. When she's no longer brave enough, she won't dare to provoke you again."
But, she is a princess.
She dared to confront him head-on, but she also didn't dare to offend him too harshly. His status was clear; in this damned imperial society, he had the power to kill her with just a few words. She could fight back, but there had to be a limit to how strong she was. If she didn't strike back with the right intensity, it could easily bring trouble to her family.
She knew it was very frustrating, but until she could come up with a way to deal with Princess Yuanying, she had to hold it in. Besides, apart from letting the other party take advantage verbally, she didn't suffer any loss.
"Where did this big dog come from?" She didn't remember there being such a big wolfhound in the Tang residence.
"I just bought it," Zhuge Congfeng said. "A dog seller happened to pass by, and I fell in love with it at first sight. Isn't it a good dog? If you want it, I'll sell it to you at a discount."
Qin Huiyin waved her hand: "Forget it, you'd better send it away quickly. Princess Yuanying hasn't reacted yet. Once she calms down, she will find trouble with it. The dog is innocent, and I don't want it to lose its life in our house."
"You really don't know what's good." Zhuge Congfeng stroked the big dog's fur. "Zhaocai, I wanted to find you a rich owner, but he doesn't want you. You can only follow me and gnaw bones."
"Wait a minute..." Qin Huiyin found that the dog was very smart and waved at it. "Zhaocai, come here."
Sure enough, Zhaocai ran towards her.
"This dog doesn't shy away from strangers!" Qin Huiyin said, "Doesn't that mean anyone can command it?"
"Try letting someone else do what you want."
Qin Huiyin asked Zhilan to try. However, the big dog didn't even look at her.
"I'll buy your dog." Qin Huiyin made the decision.
"Miss, this dog is so big and so fierce, it's too dangerous to keep it around." Zhilan advised, "The most important thing is that Princess Yuanying will definitely not let it go."
"I plan to take it to my brother's place to raise it." Qin Huiyin said, "My brother's place is too quiet. It will definitely be more lively with it."
Zhuge Congfeng didn't understand what she was saying. Her brother? Was she talking about Tang Yichen? Why was Tang Yichen's place so quiet?
"One thousand taels." Zhuge Congfeng said.
"So expensive!" Zhilan frowned, "Miss, he's blackmailing you!"
"I haven't finished speaking yet," Zhuge Congfeng said, "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't part with it for less than a thousand taels. But since you're my savior, I'll sell it for a hundred taels."
Qin Huiyin touched Zhaocai's fur and said to Zhilan, "Pay."
Zhilan: "..."
Her young lady is really a victim of fraud.
She saved this man's life, but instead of repaying him, he made money from her.
