April 16, 2017Ai Hrist
Lin Chujiu is not a G.o.d, so even if her willpower is strong and even if she is unhappy to go to the palace. She couldn’t change that fact on her own.
The next day, the sun is not yet rising but Lin Chujiu was already got pulled in the dressing the room. Lin Chujiu understand that visiting the palace is not a simple issue, so she shouldn’t have a disgraceful appearance. Lin Chujiu patiently wait for her four maidservants to finished her makeup, while some of them even tried to put a makeup on themselves to send her to the palace.
After they finished her makeup and help her wear her dress, she transform into a dignified, elegant and beautiful young lady. At that moment, they couldn’t help but praise Lin Chujiu: “Beautiful!”
Originally, the original owner of the body have a good appearance. Her skin is so white and her body is slender but curvaceous. And although her face doesn’t look that gorgeous, but the atmosphere around her face looks the same with the empress.
Lin Chujiu knew that the upbringing to the original owner of the body is good, but her two faced stepmother deliberately choose a tasteless matching of clothes for her. While she usually choose plain white colored clothes for her half sister.
So in the end, even if all her clothes have a good quality of fabric. Once she wears them, it doesn’t fit to her appearance and will only put her in disadvantage. And although the quality looks much better to her half-sister, but she will only look laughable if she will stand beside her.
“w.a.n.gfei, you really look so beautiful.” Zhenhu and Manao couldn’t help but praise her again.
After all, Lin Chujiu only wear a plain decent dress most of the time. Although she also looks good with those casual dresses. But now, she looks totally different.
Now, Lin Chujiu really have an appearance of a real princess.
“Pretty good.” Lin Chujiu look at herself in the bronze mirror to see her appearance. She wanted to see if she really look beautiful and nice. But then, she just nodded her head in satisfaction.
Today, she will enter the palace. So, she decided that no matter what the people of the palace think about her, she will show them that she is happy and living well now that she is married to Prince Xiao.
So, in order to prove it to them and to her enemies. Lin Chujiu did not only decide to wear a beautiful dress, but also wear an expensive jade pearls jewelry.
And now, Lin Chujiu’s hands have big round pearls. Personally, she won’t bother to buy such jewelry. But, her maidservants has prepared them for her. They brought this jewelry for her to wear in the palace so that palace eunuch and maidservants could see.
Lin Chujiu is a person that know how to be thankful. So, no matter how poor she is in Xiao w.a.n.gfu and no matter how bad Xiao Tianyao is to her. She wouldn’t tell or complain to any outsiders.
Especially, in the palace. She will only show them the best side of being married to Prince Xiao so that the people would know that she was having a good life, that she is very happy and that Prince Xiao is very important to her.
After all, her family won’t support her, so she could only rely to Xiao Tianyao in the capital. Lin Chujiu won’t be despised by the people from the outside of the capital, but inside the imperial city the people won’t dare to belittle her as long as she is under Prince Xiao’s name.
Crying could get sympathy from the people. But, can sympathy turn into a penny? And what will happen next after she gets the people’s sympathy?
After a while, someone reported that the carriage is ready. At that moment, Lin Chujiu’s eyes got sharp and lightly lifted her right hand to hold Manao’s arm. Then, she coldly and proudly said: “Let’s go.”
The original owner of the body’s etiquette is good, so Lin Chujiu decided to bargain and picked up some cheap gestures on her memory. And although her gestures are not that elegant and decent just like the owner, but the atmosphere around her is too strong!
“Why do I feel like w.a.n.gfei will go to a battlefield?”
“w.a.n.gfei looks so scary, I can’t even dare to look up.”
Shanhu and Feicui tried to calm down themselves, but their heart is still busy to beat so fast… …
Housekeeper Cao remains standing at the gate and watch the carriage as it goes away. His heart has a lingering feeling of fear, so he wanted to go and see Prince Xiao terribly as soon as possible!
Housekeeper Cao slowly calms down himself when he arrived at Xiao Tianyao’s courtyard. Then, he reported every word and every action of Lin Chujiu. Xiao Tianyao reveals a rare smile and praise her: “She’s really smart.”
She knows how to borrow the tiger’s power to protect herself.
When Housekeeper Cao saw Xiao Tianyao was in a good mood, he boldly said: “w.a.n.gye, rest a.s.sured. w.a.n.gfei won’t let herself get bullied or suffer in the palace.”
The smile on Xiao Tianyao’s face immediately faded: “Benw.a.n.g never got worried about her!”
“Yes, yes, it’s this slaves big mouth’s mistake.” Housekeeper Cao immediately silence himself. When he got out from Xiao Tianyao’s courtyard, that’s only when he dared to whisper complaints inside his mind: You said you never got worried? If you never got worried, why did you commanded w.a.n.gfei’s maidservants to prepare expensive clothes and jewelries for her?
If you’re not worried, then why did you deliberately instructed those guardsmen to help w.a.n.gfei enter the palace safely?
If you’re not worried, why did you commanded Zhenzhu and Manao to accompany w.a.n.gfei into the palace?
Obviously, inside your heart you got worried, but you just don’t want to admit it in your mouth. w.a.n.gye is not cute at all.
After complaining, Housekeeper Cao’s heart feel more comfortable so he decided to visit Cao Lin.
w.a.n.gfei is a good and beautiful lady. She usually has an accommodating personality. So, going out for a tea party at times is not a problem. This time, the emperor’s decision to let her get married in Xiao w.a.n.gfu is right.
This is what Housekeeper Cao think about Lin Chujiu. But…

In the palace. Lin Chujiu was standing outside the palace gate, while coldly confronting the palace guard: “How dare you to stop a princess from entering? Your courage is big!”
“I ask Princess Xiao to forgive us, but we were only following the rules.” The palace guard was kneeling beside Lin Chujiu’s carriage. But, although he was kneeling, it can be seen that he doesn’t really put Lin Chujiu in his eyes.
“Rules? You told me to get off from the carriage and just walk. Are those rules? Who’s the palace general that made such rules?” Lin Chujiu was really tired to argue. But, how could they ask her to get off? She decided to get soft with them, but how could they just pinch her temper.
“w.a.n.gfei, don’t get angry, this slave will teach those palace guards a lesson on your behalf.” Zhenzhu softly said because she got afraid. Who knows if Lin Chujiu might suddenly decide to beat up those palace guards due to her anger.
And also they don’t want to see their w.a.n.gfei attack on her own when they can personally do it.
Lin Chujiu look at Zhenzhu and smile, but she didn’t say a word.
But, why would a palace guard put Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s maidservant in his eyes when he didn’t even put Lin Chujiu who is a Princess in his eyes?
Sure enough, the palace guards didn’t give Zhenzhu a face and still insisted for Lin Chujiu to get off and directly walk into the palace.
There’s nothing wrong in getting off if she’s just any ordinary person, but she is Princess Xiao so why does she need to get off to enter the palace?
Is this a joke?
Things doesn’t look the same and Zhenzhu’s expression in the face also change in their injustice treatment. So, Lin Chujiu get off from the carriage and waved her hand to Zhenzhu for her to back off. The palace guards thought that Lin Chujiu will now finally compromised. However, Lin Chujiu suddenly lifted up her skirt and kicked the palace guard in front of her: “Your just a palace dog, but you dare to embarra.s.s a Princess. Seriously, since when did such things got allowed?”
The palace guard who was kneeling fell on the ground, he didn’t expect that Lin Chujiu will kick him. So, he got surprised and angry. He clutches his chest and said: “Princess Xiao, even if you are a princess you cannot just discriminate and started beating up a person. Today, I was just doing my duty. I will seek for justice.”
“Justice? Well then, this princess will give you justice.” Lin Chujiu’s face turns dark: “Come.”
“w.a.n.gfei,” Prince Xiao’s guardsmen approached Lin Chujiu and respectfully salute.
Lin Chujiu completely ignored the palace guard who felt injustice and said: “These palace guards intended to a.s.sa.s.sinate me. So, tie them up and send them to the Court of Justice, Privy Council or Control Yuan. Tell them that Princess Xiao had sent these palace guards because they had tried to kill me.”
Anyway, Xiao Tianyao had done the same thing before and she knows that Xiao Tianyao doesn’t see the emperor in his eyes. So, what is there to be afraid of!?
“Princess Xiao, you can’t just slander us.” The palace guard’s facial expression completely change. He didn’t expect that Lin Chujiu would be so shameless.
“Can’t I? Why? Who are you anyway to dare to stop me? The Princess is slandering you? I didn’t do that. I just said that you tried a.s.sa.s.sinating me, so you really tried!” That b.a.s.t.a.r.d Xiao Tianyao said that she is representing him, so why would she get scared?
“Tie them!” Lin Chujiu moved aside, while Prince Xiao’s guardsmen came forward to tie those palace guards. But, Crown Prince Xiao Tianrui came with a group of people… …
