Chapter 504 Are you treating my little white dumpling like a decoration?
Bai Tuantuan rolled her eyes at Li Ruyi, feeling quite displeased.
No, what? You think I'm dead? You're such a big spirit creature? You dare to hit my master? Do you think I'm just a decoration?
Bai Tuantuan was unhappy. It let out a howl and used some of its spiritual power, shaking the trees and causing the onlookers, who were both frightened and curious to see what was happening, to gasp in surprise.
Yang Zhao glanced at the excited crowd and shook his head helplessly.
Li Ruyi was also startled, and her guards and maids were also unconsciously frightened away. This was a big tiger!
They hesitated, not daring to step forward.
Good heavens! Li Ruyi was first shocked by Bai Tuantuan's roar, and her heart trembled for a moment. Then she became determined to get Bai Tuantuan.
When he turned around and saw his subordinates looking intimidated, he immediately got angry. They were really embarrassing him!
A bunch of useless trash!
She squinted, preparing to have her men attack her; this time, they were determined to kill her half to death.
Anyone who dares to touch her will be met with a harsher response. Let's see how many lives she has left to dare.
That's right, the group of villains who robbed Xiao Wan outside Luo'an City were all under the command of Princess Ruyi!
Very few people know that Li Ruyi also kept a group of江湖小小 (jianghu xiaoxi, meaning江湖小 ...
These thugs are either notorious villains with murder on their hands, skilled individuals with some underworld tricks, or extremely powerful fighters.
They were all recruited by Li Ruyi and acquired a great deal of wealth by robbing wealthy merchants or doing shady things for him.
Even though Li Ruyi was a member of the imperial family, he couldn't stop himself from spending money recklessly. The imperial stipend and salary of Prince Li, as well as the family business, were ultimately not enough to meet Li Ruyi's expenses.
After all, she lived a life of extravagance, enjoyed rare and exotic animals, and needed a lot of money to support her subordinates and do shady things, which is why she came up with these foolish ideas.
Because ordinary people would never imagine that the only daughter of Prince Li would recruit thugs and organize them to commit robbery and plunder!
Even Prince Li was unaware of these matters.
Everything was going smoothly until now. She didn't do it often, at most she would target the wealthy and rob them for a small amount of money, but she never dared to take anyone's life.
It wasn't that she was soft-hearted and couldn't bear to harm the lives of ordinary people, but rather that she was worried that if the commotion got out of hand, it would attract a serious investigation from the imperial court, which would be a big problem.
Therefore, she always instructed her subordinates to only rob money and not to kill unless absolutely necessary.
The group that robbed Xiao Wan this time were also his own men. He guessed that they had also seen this white tiger and were thinking of taking it back for themselves, but they didn't expect to be wiped out by Xiao Wan.
That Xiao Wan ruined my plans and dragged down all the people I had worked so hard to recruit. She deserves to die!
She not only wanted to kill her, but also torture her. Not only that, Xiao Wan had also delayed another important matter of hers, and she would not let her off!
Even if the imperial court investigates, it will be because this Princess Huide's people attacked me first, so I'm sure my uncle won't be angry.
Thinking of this, Li Ruyi's eyes flashed with malice, and she waved her hand to signal her men to take action!
Xiao Wan's group was just a bunch of old, weak, women and children, protected by only three men; they wouldn't amount to anything!
As for the white tiger, she had her own way of subduing it, and she gave her maid a wink.
The maid understood immediately and quietly took out a paper packet from her bosom, waiting for her chance to act!
Seeing this, Xiao Wan knew something was wrong!
This Princess Ruyi is a member of the imperial family. How could she attack the common people and the county magistrate in broad daylight, especially in front of the city's garrison?
Judging from this, this princess must be incredibly arrogant and domineering, treating human life with contempt.
She stroked her younger sister's head, pulled Xiaoyuer behind her, and nodded to Bai Tuantuan. Bai Tuantuan let out another howl, seemingly not taking Li Ruyi and her group seriously.
Yang Zhao, standing to the side, was at his wits' end as he watched the conflict between the two sides escalate.
He couldn't afford to offend Li Ruyi. He was just a city gate guard, but Princess Huide was a county princess with a rank personally bestowed by the emperor. Her trip to the capital was to present gifts to the emperor.
If Li Ruyi were to kill me, I wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Moreover, his master had ordered him to protect Princess Huide on her journey to the capital, so he dared not let anything happen to her.
With this in mind, Yang Zhao made a decision: to pit Princess Huide against Princess Ruyi.
Even if he were to pass away, I presume that with the master's benevolence, his family would be treated well.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao gritted his teeth and stepped forward to block Princess Huide's path.
“Princess, you mustn’t! Princess Huide is a second-rank princess personally appointed by the Emperor, and she is also the Goddess of Agriculture of the Great Yuan Dynasty. She has come to the capital to present gifts to the Emperor. Please, Princess, show mercy and turn hostility into friendship.”
Xiao Wan was surprised that Yang Zhao, a mere garrison commander, would stand in front of her, and she felt a slight sense of being touched and puzzled.
