Chapter 89: Going with the flow and throwing a punch
Liu Yongsheng who led the big commotion in front the Xiao w.a.n.gfu got dumbfounded. He didnât expect Princess Xiao is so capable of turning the good into a bad. Obviously, they didnât do anything wrong, so how come it became their fault ah?
However, her statement has more pressure than theirs, which makes them unable to answer.
The scholar students donât want to back down, but they donât want to be accountable for Xiao Tianyaoâs old disease recurrence.
So, Liu Yongsheng and several more people tried to explain. But, Lin Chujiu doesnât want to give them another opportunity, so she interrupted their words by saying: âThis princess is sick, Prince Xiaoâs disease reoccurred. Please give us some quietness to rest. No more shouting. If you want to say something, just tell me calmly.â
Lin Chujiu simply said. She didnât accuse them of bullying, she just simply states that she is sick and Xiao Tianyao is disabled once again.
âPrincess Xiao, this is⦠â¦âLiu Yongsheng took another initiative to open his mouth, but Lin Chujiu interrupted him once again. And this time, Lin Chujiu completely ignored his presence and just said a bit louder: âOk, ok, letâs do it like this. Iâll bring out ink stick and paper. Then, write down all of your grievances.â
âHuh ⦠â¦?â Hearing her words, the crowd got dumbfounded.
She told them to drink tea, eat steam bread and now write their grievances? In the end, what is she trying to do? Will it cost another trouble for them?
âWhat I mean is, although Prince Xiao needs to rest. Prince Xiao wonât just sit idly and do nothing if he learns all of your grievances. So, just boldly write them down. Rest a.s.sured, Prince Xiao will definitely read them all.â Lin Chujiu tried to make her words sounds so righteous. She tried her best to distance Xiao Tianyao in their accusations. too And in fear that the people might not understand her intentions, Lin Chujiu made up a situation.
âI think most of you still donât know what happened on the court. After our good gracious emperor learn that Prince Xiao hurt his legs. His Highness ordered Prince Xiao to rest at home and recuperate. His Highness also said that Prince Xiao doesnât need to worry about the court issues. So, I really canât understand what youâre doing.â
Lin Chujiu pause for a moment and look at the scholar students that incited the commotion. After seeing the stupid reaction in their face, Lin Chujiu smile in satisfaction.
âBut rest a.s.sured, Prince Xiao has a lot of people. So, even though he was told to recuperate at home. With all your written down grievances, Prince Xiao will definitely send people to the court to find out the truth.â Liu Yongsheng was about to interrupt Lin Chujiu. However, Lin Chujiu didnât pay attention to him and just finished saying her words.
âPrince Xiao was told to recuperate at home?â In the crowd, a scholar who was dressed in Tsing Yi asked. But, when he said those words, his thin body was trembling. So obviously, that person doesnât clearly know anything.
âOnly the government and military officials should see it. But well, someone come, bring out the imperial edict of the Emperor!â Lin Chujiu completely doesnât want Liu Yongsheng to get a chance. So, she wanted to bring out her hidden card.
âNo, no, you donât have to.â Liu Yongsheng busily refused. And who knows if it was only a coincidence, but when he just opened his mouth, Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs servants bring out tables and chairs in a row. The servants put them one step below Lin Chujiu. So, just in case the people suddenly rush, she wonât get harm.
âYou had spoken for half of the day now, you must be feeling thirsty. Please, drink a cup of tea first to moisten your throat. So, when the people that will bring ink stick and paper finally arrive, you can tell them your grievances more in detailed.â Lin Chujiu said and handed the cup of tea to one of the old people in the front.
These people are only ordinary people, their knowledge is very limited. Unlike those scholar students that had learned âPoetry and Literatureâ. They can write on their own.
After one of the old people received the tea, Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs servants started pouring the tea and handed to the ordinary people one after another.
The ordinary people have no gallbladder to drink the tea, so they donât want to accept it. However, Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs servants refused to leave until they take it.
The situation is deadlocked, so the troubled ordinary people look at Liu Yongsheng to know what should they do. But, what about Liu Yongsheng?
Liu Yongsheng himself doesnât know what to do. So, he only looks at the tea in front of him while feeling bitter.
Princess Xiao is really wise. He deliberately made trouble, but he was the one who ended up troubled. He really needs to be careful, he cannot confess whoâs the people behind this event, but he also cannot offend Princess Xiao. In the end, does he still have a way out?
Lin Chujiu didnât speak, she just looks at Liu Yongsheng. But, her eyes have a touch of a smile.
Having ident.i.ty is naturally an advantage. Because ordinary people feared the n.o.ble. So the more she tried to be polite, the more these people will be troubled.
Lin Chujiu havenât said anything, so Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs servants didnât dare to step back and just keep pouring the tea. The ordinary people didnât dare to get angry, even if their hands were already trembling from holding the tea cup.
Fortunately, Lin Chujiu doesnât love torturing people. Especially, torturing one of their people.
âScholar Liu, you donât need to be so polite. Thereâs nothing wrong in seeking justice. And itâs only just a cup of tea, right?â Lin Chujiu simply said, but obviously, sheâs forcing him to drink.
âThank you, Princess Xiao.âLiu Yongsheng said while the corner of his mouth is twitching. With that, he no longer dares to refuse to drink. However, while he was drinking, he suddenly heard Lin Chujiu said: âScholar Liu, please drink all of it. Divine Doctor Mo made this tea, itâs worth drinking. You will definitely have an excellent health after this. You donât need to worry about getting poisoned.â
Lin Chujiu doesnât know what Liu Yongsheng will do next in the future. So, she said to be safe.
âSomeone come, bring me a cup of tea too.â If a dignified princess like her also drank, these people will not be worried to be poisoned, right?
âw.a.n.gfei didnât leave any loopholes. Iâm afraid with this, these people have nothing to fear.â Su Cha secretly reminiscing the day he and Xiao Tianyao talked about Lin Chujiu. That day, Xiao Tianyao told him that Lin Chujiu is not the same as the rumors say. She is not arrogant, stupid and cold hearted.
While in front of everyone, Lin Chujiu drink a cup of tea. Then, she said half a joke and half serious: âIn fact, I am not thirsty, but⦠⦠I am afraid that someone might say they got poisoned while drinking Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs tea. So, in order to avoid that thing to happen. I also drink for Scholar Liu to see that even though Iâm sick, I am feeling better. So, Scholar Liu will be fine too.â
Her body is not in a good health, but sometimes itâs very useful. So, Lin Chujiu once again blocked another future problem.
âPrincess Xiao you laughed.â Liu Yongsheng gritted his teeth and angrily drink all of his tea.
Divine Doctor Mo made this tea? Itâs worth drinking? This is simply a honeysuckle tea! You Liar!
âNo need to rush.â After saying those, Lin Chujiu handed the cup of tea to the servant and said: âGo ahead and tell them to hurry the steam bread. If they canât make it in time, You can buy outside. We canât let these people starve.â
If the bread is not steamed properly, it wonât turn out good. Lin Chujiu doesnât want to let these people eat something bad from Xiao w.a.n.gfu.
Food is the easiest to tamper. She wonât let such trivial thing to cause them trouble.
âThis slave will go to the street and buy.â Xiao w.a.n.gfuâs servant is also very witty. He immediately went to the street to buy. Liu Yongshengâs group wanted to block the servant, but they cannot stop him because ⦠â¦
