Crazy childhood sweetheart always thinks of me

Chapter 97: The Crown Prince has been deposed, where does the Crown Princess come from?

A slight smile appeared on my lips. It had been a long time since I saw the two sisters act out.

Zhou Shufen said coquettishly, "Sister, why do you help her every time? She doesn't know any other ladies in Yuanxi. She came to a place like this alone, and she smelled of alcohol. She must be drinking with some shameless person here."

I leaned against the handrail of the stairs and looked at the two of them with interest. Zhou Shufang smiled at me gently, walked over and pulled me: "Ranran must be bored alone, so she came to look for us."

I didn't answer and walked down the stairs step by step. The ladies who followed them pointed at me and commented on me.

I walked down and looked at the delicious food and small pot of sake on their table. I suddenly smiled at Zhou Shufang and said, "Sister, you are right. I came here to look for you. Sister, do you mind if I sit down and have a meal with you?"

Zhou Shufang immediately said with a smile: "No problem, no problem, Ranran, please sit down."

Zhou Shufen glared at me angrily, cursing, "You can't even afford to eat, and you just hope to make some money every year during the Chinese New Year. Now that you see us eating, you want to eat our food."

I looked around and found that most of the dishes were sweet, such as sweet and sour pork ribs, West Lake vinegar fish, boiled chicken... They were really not to my taste.

"You've never eaten such delicious food in your life, you country bumpkin. Although you live in the capital, your useless father is still just..."

I originally didn't intend to argue with her. If my mother told me to be patient, I would do so. But when it comes to my father, I just can't tolerate it.

I looked at her sharply and she subconsciously shut her mouth. Zhou Shufang has always been good at socializing and is better at pretending than her mother and her sister.

At this moment, she was obviously a little unhappy: "Shufen, you are really becoming more and more unruly. How can you get involved in your uncle's affairs?"

Although Zhou Shufen closed her mouth reluctantly at this moment, the look in her eyes when she looked at me was full of resentment.

I took out a silver ingot from my pocket and threw it on the counter: "This dish is not to my taste. I'd better go back to see my grandfather's illness. I'll pay for this bill. Eat well, cousin."

When the shopkeeper saw such a large ingot of silver, he immediately smiled happily. When Zhou Shufen saw me casually taking out such a large ingot of silver, she was also shocked. She slapped the table and said, "Where did you get the money? Did you ask your grandfather for it again?"

I ignored her and just said to the shopkeeper, "No need to look for it." I stood up and walked out the door, but Zhou Shufang grabbed me and said, "Ranran, Shufen's words were rude. I apologize to you on her behalf. After all, we are a family. How about we sit down, have a good meal, and let everything pass?"

I felt uncomfortable with her holding my hand, so I stepped aside: "No need, I'm used to spicy food, not sweet food, eat more, sister."

After saying that, I didn't hesitate any more and turned around and walked out.

The sky was grey and gloomy, and a chill came over me. I couldn't help but sneeze, and the snot flowed out and hung under my nose. I rummaged around in my arms for a long time and took out a crookedly embroidered handkerchief. I recognized it at a glance. It was the one I embroidered when I was practicing.

As I was walking, I suddenly heard hurried footsteps from behind. I turned around and saw a long sword in front of me. The tip of the sword was wrapped in cold ice and snow and attacked me. I was forced to fall backwards and lay firmly on the ground. The sword pierced the air and the person holding the sword immediately made a sword flower in his hand. I didn't expect that someone in Yuanxi would attack me.

This man has an ordinary face. Even if I look at him twice today, I believe I will forget him in two days.

Who does this person belong to?

Before I could think of it, his next sword was already pointing at my throat. I had already clenched the silver needle in my hand. No one knew that I had secretly learned medical skills, learned how to pinch silver needles, and learned how to use silver needles to seal people's acupuncture points.

At this critical moment, the tip of his sword was about to pierce me, but suddenly a pulling force pulled me away, and I was lifted up and thrown aside. A tall figure wearing a pine-colored felt appeared in front of me. I silently put down the silver needle in my hand, and looked at the figure in front of me thoughtfully. The tall figure in the pine-colored felt was surprisingly fast in his hands, and he had the upper hand in a back and forth. The ordinary man in black clothes and tights, his sword in his hand became faster and faster. I stood in the snow, looking at the swords and shadows in front of me, the snowflakes dancing in the wind, and the two people fighting, forming a beautiful picture.

I don't know how long they fought like this. Their speed was getting faster and faster, and I was becoming more and more dazzled. Suddenly, a figure fell towards me, and I quickly stepped aside.

As expected, it was the man in black clothes who fell in the snow, blood oozing from his mouth. He stared angrily at the man in the pine-colored felt. The man laughed and said, "You are so shameless to bully a little girl in broad daylight."

The man in black clothes said in a cold voice: "You are meddling in other people's business like this. Aren't you afraid of death?"

The man with the pine-colored felt had his hands on his waist, very domineering: "Are you afraid of death? I think it's you who wants to die. My father is the governor of Yuanxi Prefecture."

The man in black clothes pondered for a moment, and the man in the pine-colored felt immediately said smugly: "Are you scared? It's right to be afraid. Don't bully pretty girls in the future, otherwise..."

I walked over and asked in a clear voice, "Who do you belong to?"

The man in black clothes stared at me with a bad look. I quickly inserted a silver needle into his dantian. His limbs instantly became numb and he couldn't move. He stared at me with murderous eyes: "Let me go."

I turned around and said word by word, "If you don't tell me, then I'll make a guess. You're probably not from Junhua. I don't know you, but I happened to have seen your swordsmanship. Two years ago, in a deserted suburb of the capital, it was almost the Ghost Festival. He and I were walking in the dark suburbs and encountered a group of black-clad assassins. Your swordsmanship is exactly the same as that of those black-clad assassins..." I looked back at him, and he suddenly laughed, "They and I have the same master. He has so many enemies in the capital, I don't believe you can guess who's behind me."

The man in the pine-colored felt was also obviously watching with great interest.

"He has many enemies, but not many dare to kill him openly. The only one who could deal with him two years ago was probably the Zhu family."

I looked at him seriously, and he looked at me with his pupils shaking. He soon stammered, "You guessed wrong. It's Princess Junhua."

I couldn't help but applaud: "You are not very good at lying. Did your master teach you to push the blame onto someone else? Are you afraid that he will be angry and retaliate?"

The man in black clothes was panicked by my guess. He said angrily, "I told you that you are not the Crown Princess. Why don't you understand?"

I saw that he was so excited and in a better mood, so it was obvious that there was something going on.

"If it's not, then it's not. Why are you so excited? You can even blurt out the name of Crown Princess. You should call her the Deposed Crown Princess. The Crown Prince is deposed, so how can there be a Crown Princess?"
