After the female supporting role is quickly put on, she is full of charm

Chapter 255 The Domineering Princess 8

Zhou Linxi went to the palace today just to ask for an explanation.

Now that Concubine Wang is also in Mingzhu Palace, he doesn't know how to start the conversation.

My sister was wronged when she entered the palace, and I was originally very proud to enter the palace.

Facing Concubine Wang's puzzled look, Zhou Linxi said to Azhi who was sitting at the top of the table, "Princess, this box is full of gifts you gave to Zhou Tao. Please count them carefully. You don't need to worry about Zhou Tao anymore."

In the past, Yun Yuyu's eyes would light up when she saw Zhou Linxi, and her gaze would never leave Zhou Linxi.

If he had heard Zhou Linxi say such distant words, he would have shown some flattery to Zhou Linxi a long time ago.

Whether in the divine world or in the human world, Yuyan Immortal Lord has a deep affection for Yanning Immortal Lord. They were Taoist companions before they ascended to heaven.

Therefore, when her original body was reincarnated as a princess, she still fell in love with Zhou Linxi at first sight.

What a pity. The original body had feelings for Zhou Linxi, but I can't stand people like Zhou Linxi.

Concubine Wang looked down the alley and said in surprise, "The princess is really generous. The treasures given to Miss Zhou are all top-grade. They are really good things that ordinary people can't find."

"Now that Lord Zhou is willing to send them back, it seems that it is really as your sister said, these things are external possessions."

How could Zhou Linxi not hear the sarcasm in Concubine Wang's words?

But he couldn't say a word against Zhou Tao. He just slowly lowered his head towards Concubine Wang.

"My sister is still young and ignorant, please don't take it to heart, Princess and Concubine."

Concubine Wang was playing with a round fan and smiling brightly.

"I naturally don't take it to heart, but I think there is really no other girl like you in the capital who is indifferent to fame and fortune."

Concubine Wang was clearly praising Zhou Tao, but Zhou Linxi found it particularly irritating.

He gritted his teeth and lowered his head.

"Your Highness, you are too kind. My sister is just a child."

You are already old enough to get married, but you still have the mentality of a child?

Concubine Wang rolled her eyes delicately.

"Alright, Jiangzhu, take out the account book, check all these things one by one, and burn the used cloth. If there are fewer things that this princess has given out as rewards, your Zhou family must compensate this princess."

Zhou Linxi was stunned. He never expected that these things sent to the Zhou family would be recorded in the account.

I thought the damaged things were nothing. Yun Yuyu had bestowed upon the princess a large number of treasures, and these things were really nothing to worry about.

But it was a problem for Zhou Linxi, who had just become an official, because he did not have that much money as he had just entered the officialdom.

Zhou Linxi stepped forward and said to Ah Zhi, "Princess, the jade pendant and vase you gave me were accidentally broken when I was carrying them."

In order to take the blame for his own sister, Zhou Linxi chose to take all the responsibility on himself.

It was obvious that Zhou Tao broke the jade pendant and the vase accidentally when she lost her temper.

Now Zhou Linxi took the responsibility on himself only because he was worried that his sister would be punished.

Azhi's eyes fell on Zhou Linxi.

I thought that according to her past habits, she would definitely take the initiative to ask for these things, but I didn't expect Ah Zhi to raise the corners of his lips and speak in a slightly cold voice.

"I am your Majesty's legitimate daughter. When you address me, you should use "you". Sir Zhou, don't you understand the rules?"

The slight expectation in my heart just now turned into an indescribable feeling at this moment.

Concubine Wang reminded Zhou Linxi, "Lord Zhou really doesn't know the rules. The princess is a precious girl, you should be more respectful to her."

"Yes, Wei Chen understands."

Jiangzhu, who was standing by, had finished counting and she walked up to report to Azhi.

"Princess, I have counted the things that Lord Zhou sent today. A jade ruyi is missing, as well as a jade pendant and a vase. Some silk and satin were made into clothes. I have already asked someone to burn them."

Azhi reached out and took the account book, flipping through it casually, and finally raised his eyes to look at Zhou Linxi who was standing beside him.

He was dressed in official uniform, with an upright posture and handsome face. He was particularly eye-catching just standing there.

Zhou Linxi was indeed eye-catching enough as he passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar at such a young age, bringing honor to his family.

She threw the account book into Zhou Linxi's arms and said with a smile, "Master Zhou, please take a good look at it. What are the missing items in it? How are you going to supply this princess with your Zhou family?"

Zhou Linxi didn't expect that Azhi would have to repair the broken things himself.

I saw that he had a cold face and his lips moved slightly.

"These things originally belonged to the princess. Since the princess wants me to return them to her, I will return them. However, these things are rare treasures in the world, and I really can't find anything exactly like them."

"If you can't find the same one, you can cash it in. It just so happens that I'm short of money recently, so these three things can be cashed in for thirty thousand taels of gold. I want to see thirty thousand taels of gold before the New Year, not a cent less."

"It just so happens that the Imperial Concubine is in the Pearl Palace today, so she can help me and Lord Zhou to be a witness. The Zhou family is a family that regards money as dirt. They are truly immortal."

Thirty thousand taels of gold could not be easily taken out by Zhou Linxi, not even Concubine Wang standing beside him.

She stared at Azhi in surprise, but still raised her eyebrows slightly and chuckled.

"Well, I will be your witness. Lord Zhou, you must return the thirty thousand taels of gold to the princess before the New Year."

Zhou Linxi stared at Azhi closely and felt that the woman in front of him was particularly strange.

In his impression, Yun Yuyu liked him, and her love was as hot as a raging fire.

In order to please himself, he wished he could empty out the entire Pearl Palace.

Now she is forcing me to pay back the money. Doesn’t she like me anymore?

Azhi met Zhou Linxi's gaze with a smile on her face.

But her smile did not reach her eyes, and instead carried a hint of barely perceptible disdain. Was this a game of playing hard to get?

Finding that pleasing yourself is useless, you want to use other methods to attract your attention?

Seeing Zhou Linxi staring at her in a daze, Azhi frowned slightly and winked at the palace maid beside her.

The palace maid turned around and appeared with a whip in her hand. Concubine Wang was slightly startled when she saw the whip.

Everyone in the palace knew that the princess liked to whip people. She would whip anyone she disliked. But no one expected Ah Zhi to whip her at this time.

She hurriedly said to Ah Zhi, "Princess, what are you doing?"

Unfortunately, it was too late for her to speak, and Azhi whipped Zhou Linxi with a whip.

Now Zhou Linxi came back to his senses completely, and felt a burning pain in his arm.

He covered his arm and asked Azhi in a panic, "Princess, what do you mean?"

Concubine Wang stood up and swallowed her saliva, feeling a little helpless. Azhi even whipped Zhou Linxi mercilessly.
