Ye Jiayao spent a sleepless night. She felt as though she might’ve spoken too harshly. Chunyu was right, she really shouldn’t have ridden with Chunfeng.

But he spoke cruel words to me, too!

She felt like she had become a big joke. She was bullied by that donkey and she was also being bullied by his brat of a fiancee. What, does she have a target painted on her back that she doesn’t know about?

Aye!  She was intending to just bow and apologize to solve the problem peacefully, but it has just gotten bigger!

Now, there was nothing she could do but fight it. The princess wanted to flaunt her influence and power, right? Well, Ye Jiayao would make sure that everyone would see just how  great  she was.

Her heart blazing with the will to end this once and for all, she waved Helian Jing and Xia Chunfeng over to her to give them tasks.

The two noblemen were stunned with the plan that Yaoyao has relayed to them. That was so cruel!

“What do you think?” Ye Jiayao asked. “Chunfeng, if you are afraid of your future sister-in-law, you don’t have to join this plan.”

“Why would I be afraid of her? I don’t even want her to be my sister-in-law,” Xia Chunfeng answered dramatically. “It’s Little Jing that you should be worried about. Liu Li is his cousin.”

Helian Jing shook his head and said, “Since she is my cousin, it’s my duty to teach her some lessons. Otherwise, she would just become worse in the future. She is already too spoiled as it is.”

“So does that mean that both of you agree with my plan?”

They both nodded. The thought of Liu Li’s face when she gets her punishment was enough to get them excited.

The next morning, Xia Chunyu headed to Puji temple as soon as he got off duty. He didn’t get back to the city until the afternoon where he ran into Zhao Qixuan.

Zhao Qixuan asked him, “Brother Chunyu, did you also go to Lan Ting Xuan?”

Xia Chunyu scowled, confused. “Why would I go to Lan Ting Xuan?”

Zhao Qixuan paled when he saw his reaction.  Crap!  He thought that Chunfeng had informed his brother of their plans! He hurriedly said, “Never mind! I’ll, um, I’ll go now!”

Zhao Qixuan left immediately.

Xia Chunyu frowned at Zhao Qixuan’s retreating back. Why did he look so worried? Did something happen in Lan Ting Xuan?

He tried to ignore it as he rode his horse, but the tugging feeling in his gut was insistent. He had a bad feeling about this. He halted and called, “Song Qi, go to Lan Ting Xuan and report to me what’s going on there.”

“Yes, Heir-Son Lord.” Song Qi immediately turned his horse around and carried out his orders.

A splendid horse cart drove towards Lan Ting Xuan carrying two well-dressed and pretty nobles.

Helian Jing said softly, “Liu Li, I owe Li Yao a debt of gratitude. Just let him go for me, okay? He didn’t offend you intentionally. He didn’t know who you were back then, you shouldn’t blame him. If he knew you that you’re Princess Liu Li, he would’ve treated you nicely.”

“Helian Jing, I don’t really care how much you owe him. It’s not my problem that you ran away from home and barely made it back. And even if he helped you, he’s just a  chef,  Helian Jing! A chef.  Why are you lowering yourself to the likes of him? Where’s your pride?”
