Crazy criticizes Emperor Ji for marrying the regent and becoming more powerful

Chapter 22 Forgive me for not being able to help myself

"It's not your turn to question this king yet." Xiahou Qi looked at the third princess coldly, his tone full of impatience.

"Your Majesty! Tell me, who is she?"

The princess still persisted in asking.

Seeing that she kept asking about her identity, Chu Xi couldn't help but put her head on Xia Houqi's back, trying to hide away, as if this could make the other party ignore her.

And Chu Xi's move of leaning her forehead against Xia Houqi made Xiahou Qi feel that she was relying on him.

Xia Houqi was in a good mood when he noticed Chu Xi's little move.

"Third Princess, she is the one who pleases my king. Please don't offend her." Xia Houqi looked at the Third Princess very seriously and said.

When the third princess heard Xia Houqi's words, her eyes widened:

"What are you talking about, the one who pleases your heart? She is just a lowly slave. My lord, you actually said that she is the one who pleases your heart? How is this possible! I don't believe it!" the third princess shouted sharply.

She had been fond of the regent for many years, but she only accompanied the queen mother on a trip to Mount Wutai to worship Buddha. Why, when she returned to Shengjing, the prince had someone he liked!
She only heard that the prince picked up a little beggar from outside and kept him as his concubine. He was very favored.

Xia Houqi didn't want to argue with the third princess here, so he turned his head and said softly to Chu Xi:

"Let's go back."

"Yeah." Chu Xi responded softly, still not looking up.

Seeing this, Xia Houqi raised the corners of his lips, then put his arm around her shoulders, wanting to take her back.

But the third princess stretched out her hand and stopped her.

"Stop! If we don't speak clearly today, no one will be able to leave!"

"Third Princess, you are so unreasonable and troublesome. I will sue Your Majesty tomorrow and you will be grounded and not allowed to leave the palace." Xia Houqi threatened in a cold voice.

"You! You actually contradict me for a little beggar?" The eyes of the third princess were filled with disbelief.

Although Xia Houqi always ignored her, the third princess had always been arrogant and everyone followed her wishes. That's why she couldn't accept it when Xia Houqi threatened her.

"She is not a little beggar. Princess, please pay attention to your wording."

Although Xia Houqi would make fun of Chu Xi's identity before, he would not allow others to call her or insult her in this way.

"Did I say it wrong? She is a beggar! A lowly bitch!"

At this time, the third princess had lost her royal grace and qualities, and she said all kinds of disgusting things.

Just when Xia Houqi couldn't stand listening anymore and was about to educate her, someone came to teach the third princess a lesson on his behalf.

"With what the third princess said, could it be that she has learned all the rules and etiquette from a dog? I don't remember teaching the third princess to use her status to insult others."

Aunt Su originally wanted to go back with Chu Xi to try on the newly sewn palace clothes, but who knew she would run into the rude third princess.

"You are mama again, why are you here?"

The third princess's originally arrogant expression suddenly became much more docile.

"If the old slave didn't show up here, how would he know that this is how the third princess talks to people on weekdays?" Mother Su said mockingly.

The third princess was thrown into disarray by the sudden appearance of Nanny Su. She didn't know what to do and was in a panic.

"Mammy, the third princess will be left in your care. I will take my leave first." Hearing this, Grandma Su nodded and replied:
"Your Majesty and my little master, walk slowly."

With the third princess present, Aunt Su couldn't call Chu Xi 'Emperor Ji', so she could only call her Little Master.

When Chu Xi passed by Nanny Su, she gave her a grateful smile, and then was led away from the place of right and wrong by Xia Houqi's hand.

After walking out of the martial arts training ground, Chu Xi shook off Xia Houqi's hand and walked forward alone.

Xia Houqi was stunned for a moment, then chased after her and held her hand again.

"What are you doing to get rid of me?"

"Don't be a hooligan!"

"Rogue? How can I act like a gangster when I lead the future princess?" Xia Houqi argued with Chu Xi confidently.

"Who is your future princess? Stop talking nonsense! I am not one of you!"

"It's up to whoever agrees. Why, do you still want to deny it? The token of love is still tied around your waist."

As Xia Houqi spoke, he pointed at the half piece of jade pendant hanging around Chu Xi's waist, then picked up the half piece of jade pendant hanging on his waist and shook it, as if to remind Chu Xi something.

Who knew that when Chu Xi saw these two jade pendants, she would blush with embarrassment.

Then he turned around and ran away quickly.

Seeing how shy she was, the corners of Xia Houqi's lips rose crazily, and then he followed her leisurely, so as not to lose her or get too far away.

On the other hand, after the third princess was caught by Aunt Su and made rude remarks, she was reprimanded by Aunt Su. She also invited the third princess out of the palace and ordered her to shut up for three days to reflect on her past, and to copy the disciples' rules ten times. After three days, she She wants to check it word for word.

The third princess was unwilling, but in the end she could only be driven back to the palace in despair.

In the evening, Chu Xi finally recovered from the kiss. When having dinner with Xia Houqi, she couldn't help but ask him:
"Why was the third princess so scared after seeing Nanny Su? Isn't the third princess more noble?"

"Of course an ordinary nanny is not as noble as a princess, but Nanny Su is different. She teaches nanny that even His Majesty will treat Nanny Su with utmost courtesy when he sees her, let alone a princess."

"Does Aunt Su have such a high status? Then why do I always feel that Aunt Su respects me? Is it just because I am the Emperor Ji?"

"It's just? Don't you understand the importance of the word 'Di Ji'? Di Ji is equivalent to the prince. There can only be one, only one level lower than your majesty. Mother Su will naturally not be disrespectful to you, while the princess and the prince will There can be many." Xia Houqi patiently explained to Chu Xi the difference between an emperor and a princess.

After hearing this, Chu Xi finally realized that her current identity might be really great!
But Chu Xi turned around and thought, feeling that Xia Houqi was lying to herself, and glared at him again.

"Why are you glaring at me all the time?"

"Are you lying to me?"

"What did the king lie to you?"

"Since my status is only one level lower than that of my father, why do you still dare to bully me? Why do you still dare to bully me?"

Hearing this, Xia Houqi smiled and thought of the lingering kiss in the afternoon.

"What I just said does not include me. Your Majesty promised me that I do not need to abide by any etiquette. In other words, except for you, I can bully anyone. Of course -"

Chu Xi looked at him, "Of course what?"

"Of course, what I did to you just now was not bullying, it was just out of control. I ask Di Ji to forgive me for being out of control."
