“I saw it all!” Zhao Chuchu said angrily. “Who knows what else he did before I arrived? Princess, don’t try to exonerate him!”

Princess Jianan was speechless.

Xie Heng really didn’t do anything!

She had no bad intentions. She simply wanted to see what kind of person Xie Heng really was.

Princess Jianan patiently explained the whole thing to Zhao Chuchu. Only then did Zhao Chuchu believe her and let go of Xie Heng.

Xie Hengs ears were saved.

Princess Jianan told all her servants to leave the room. Then she looked at Zhao Chuchu and said, “l didn’t know that you were such a ferocious lady. Did

Mr. Xie get his eyes ravaged like this every day at home?”

Zhao Chuchu said, “Not really. This is the first time. I did it because I was really angry.”

“Oh.” Princess Jianan nodded and said, “l heard that you’re an excellent doctor. You saved Yanyan’s life, right?”

“l just got lucky. The imperial physicians were there before me.”

“Hmph. Those useless idiots at the Imperial Physician Academy know nothing other than infighting tactics. They aren’t even worthy of being your servant! ” Zhao Chuchu didn’t know how to respond.

That was true, but princess, aren’t you afraid that the imperial physicians might hear you and try to cause trouble?

“Never mind, let’s not talk about that. Mrs. Xie, you’ve been in the Imperial

City for several months. How’s life here?”

“Princess, how did you know…”

“l could never miss out on a gorgeous gentleman. How could I notice Mr. Xie when he has such mesmerizing looks? But, unfortunately, he’s already married. How about you guys get divorced? I’ll give you a mansion and so much money that you wouldn’t be able to spend it all.”

Xie Heng took a deep breath and told himself to calm down.

Zhao Chuchu rejected her. “No amount of money can replace my Da Lang. I don’t need money, and I won’t get divorced from Da Lang for money.” “But what if Mr. Xie wants to divorce you…”

“That’s impossible. I have only one partner in my entire life, and that is

Chuchu. So, princess, such jokes aren’t funny. Please stop telling them.”

Otherwise, even if Princess Jianan were an honorable hero in her previous life, she wouldn’t mind doing something to make her feel a bit of pain.

“Mr. Xie, I admire your love for your wife.”

“When I was blind, my wife took care of me. 1 will never leave her.” Xie Heng confessed his love for Zhao Chuchu in a calm voice.

Zhao Chuchu couldn’t help but grin.

Princess Jianan felt like someone had just stuffed something in her mouth and forced her to swallow it.

“Okay, enough with that. Let’s talk business. Did the two of you come from the Third Prince’s palace today? 1 heard that both the emperor and his mother were there. Why did your brother Xie Jun stay in the Third Prince’s palace?” Princess Jianan’s expression became serious as she asked.

Zhao Chuchu asked, “Have you been following us?”

“Do I need to do that? The three of you entered the Third Prince’s palace from the front door. Quite a lot of people saw you,” Princess Jianan said. “Is Xie Jun somehow related to Yanyan?”

“Since you already know so much, I’m sure you have an answer for yourself. We wouldn’t dare speculate on what the emperor wants to do,” Zhao Chuchu answered.

Princess Jianan went silent as if she were deep in thought.

“Your highness, if there’s nothing else that you need from us, could you allow us to return home first? We had already bought groceries and were just about to go home to cook ourselves a meal. But you interrupted…”

“Then stay here and eat with me!” Princess Jianan decided. “Mr. Xie, there are some personal things that I would like to talk to Mrs. Xie about. So please leave the room first.’

Xie Heng looked at Zhao Chuchu. He only left the room after Zhao Chuchu nodded.

Princess Jianan laughed and said, “Is Mr. Xie afraid that I might eat you alive?”

“l wouldn’t dare.’

“It’s alright. Your expression tells me everything. Leave.”

“Yes.

After Xie Heng left, Princess Jianan turned around and looked at Zhao Chuchu as she said, “You are really pretty, certainly not any worse than the daughters of the rich and powerful clans in the Imperial City. No wonder Mr. Xie is so fond of you. But, Mrs. Xie, the Imperial City isn’t Guangqing Province. Many people would be interested in someone like Mr. Xie.”

“What are you trying to say, princess? You can just tell me directly.”

“Hmm, I like smart people like you. Do you know the duke? Sikou Zhendong is planning to marry one of his daughters to Mr. Xie. So you should be careful about this.’

“Da Lang and 1 are already married. Perhaps this is a misunderstanding?” Zhao Chuchu seemed to be in disbelief.

“So what if you are married? Mr. Xie has too much value for Sikou Zhendong. From this perspective, it would be too easy to get rid of a little girl like you who came from nowhere and knows no one. You should be careful. While the Imperial City seems lively and prosperous, there are traps everywhere. One wrong step could mean eternal damnation.”

“Princess, why are you telling me all this?”

“l don’t like the duke. I don’t want things to go smoothly for him. Is that a good enough reason?”

“You’re doing this for the Third Prince, right?”

“Nonsense. Yanyan calls me auntie, but he doesn’t need me to worry about his business.’

“Then should 1?”

“Seriously? Are you asking me? You did some pretty impressive things in Guangqing province back then, didn’t you? So why are you admitting defeat here in Imperial City? Are you pretending to be weak?” Princess Jianan exposed Zhao Chuchu without hesitation.

Zhao Chuchu couldn’t help but laugh.

Princess Jianan waved her hand and said, “Enough, there’s no need to put up a facade in front of me. After you guys arrived at the Imperial City, I sent some people to Guangqing Province to investigate. I know what you did there. To be honest, Mrs. Xie, I like you quite a lot. I invited your husband here mainly because I wanted to meet you. Hmm, just like I imagined, you are gorgeous.”

“Princess, are you fond of gorgeous women?”

“Who doesn’t like gorgeous things? It’s just that I’m blessed with more opportunities to choose than most other people. Look at the boys that I have in my palace. None of them are ugly. I know they won’t accompany me for life, so why not find someone who pleases my eyes?”

“Princess, you are one of the most genuine people I’ve met. But I believe you are not keeping those men just for pleasure, right?”

“Oh, why do you say that? Toy boys are for pleasure. Why else would I have them? Charity?”

“Probably the latter.”

When Zhao Chuchu entered the room and saw Princess Jianan, she could tell that the princess was still a virgin. But, unlike the rumors, she didn’t have “chaotic relationships.”

Zhao Chuchu also noticed that the golden hairpin that she had been wearing was rather old. Someone of her status shouldn’t be wearing old ornaments like that. It must have been a gift from someone important, so she wore it every day.

Who else could it be besides her husband, who passed away years ago?

“That’s not true. I’ve kidnapped quite a number of men. The entire Imperial City scorns me for it. Oh, I even kidnapped Mr. Xie today. Those scholars will have yet another reason to condemn me tomorrow.”

“Their mouths belong to them, so they can say whatever they want. Although people say that words are the most poisonous, hurtful blades in the world, if our minds are strong enough, we will be invincible in the face of rumors and gossip.”

Princess Jianan took a good look at Zhao Chuchu.. Then, after quite a while, she sighed and said, “That’s easy to say, but how can it be easy to do?”
