Chapter 86: Imposing manner and the Crown Prince’s lost
Outside the Jin Tian Courtyard, Su Cha and Liu Bai have already been waiting for Xiao Tianyao. So, when Liu Bai saw Lin Chujiu came out with the guardsmen, he frowned: “Why are you… …? Isn’t what your father had done not enough, so you decided to come out and cause more trouble to Wangye?”
Liu Bai’s flow of words to Lin Chujiu are all but a ‘big hat, no cattle’ (All talk, but has nothing to back it up). So, at that moment, Lin Chujiu’s cold eyes immediately swept to Liu Bai.
Lin Chujiu knows that Liu Bai wanted to see Xiao Tianyao’s face, but he doesn’t need to argue with her, right? So, Lin Chujiu can only think about his feelings to Mo Yuer as a reason. He was the one that helps Mo Yuer to force Xiao Tianyao to accept her. So, Lin Chujiu doesn’t think Liu Bai has the right to convey his feelings.
“If it’s not me, then should it be Miss Mo? Should she be the one that represents Xiao Wangfu?” Lin Chujiu open her mouth and said to irritate back Liu Bai by using his beloved person.
“What are you saying? Are you looking down on Miss Mo? Miss Mo is far better than you! She doesn’t cause any harm to people unlike you and your family.” Liu Bai’s facial expression changed and viciously said.
Lin Chujiu coldly snorted, she was completely unaffected: “Liu Bai daren seems doesn’t understand the situation. Miss Mo is not part of Xiao Family, so she is not qualified to represent Xiao Wangfu.”
“Lin Chujiu, don’t think that because you are a woman, I wouldn’t dare to hit you.” Liu Bai raised his fist and was about to hit Lin Chujiu. Fortunately, Su Cha was able to stop him on time: “Bai, stop talking nonsense.”
“What nonsense? I only said the truth. If it wasn’t because of her father, do you think we would be in this kind of situation?” Liu Bai said and put all the blame to Lin Chujiu. He simply cannot see the actual her in his eyes.
Lin Chujiu didn’t answer back, nor look at Liu Bai. After all, she cannot argue with him on that matter.
“What is the current situation outside?” Lin Chujiu look at Su Cha, then asked. She believes, Su Cha is a wise a man. And right now, she needed such a person to help her because she cannot escape this problem. But not only her, because Xiao Tianyao won’t be able to escape too.
Indeed, Su Cha is far better than Liu Bai. He believes that Xiao Tianyao let Lin Chujiu go out to solve this matter. Xiao Tianyao believes in her and doesn’t put her in the same shoes with Lin Xiang. He is giving her a chance to prove her own ability to Xiao Wangfu.
So, Su Cha, who is angrily blocking Liu Bai’s hand reported: “The situation outside is not good. I don’t know where all those old women and scholar students came from. They just suddenly rushed to the front gate, when the old men fell on the ground. Those old men were just slightly pushed away by the guardsmen. But, when some of them got injured. They started cursing right away. We reported this bullying to the government officials immediately. But, they haven’t arrived yet. It’s more like they don’t plan on coming.”
When Su Cha was still saying a thing or two, Lin Chujiu was already able to understand what’s happening.
The Government Officials are unreliable. So, she doesn’t need to expect their help. She cannot scold those people outside… …
Scolding those scholar students will only make them madder.
“I understand.” Lin Chujiu said and no longer ask a thing. Then, she started to walk forward. However, no matter what Liu Bai thinks, Su Cha busily chase after her: “Wangfei, where are you going?”
“Changing clothes.” Lin Chujiu simply said. She didn’t even turn her head when she replied to him. Su Cha tried to keep up with her, but he was stopped by the guard that was following behind Lin Chujiu, then said: “Young Master Su Cha, Wangye ordered us to follow whatever Wangfei had decided to do.”
The Guard said to Su Cha, but just by hearing it, Liu Bai’s face immediately change in color: “How can Tianyao believe her? All these things happened because of that Lin Xiang!”
“We only listen to Wangye’s command.” After the Guard indifferently replied, he no longer bothered to stay with Liu Bai and Su Cha. He quickly followed behind Lin Chujiu.
Su Cha patted Liu Bai’s shoulder and said: “Don’t be silly. Lin Xiang is only a mere minister. He didn’t belong to any strong family, but he dared to play Wangye in his hand?” He’s nothing but a pawn.
“What do you mean?” Liu Bai doesn’t want to understand Su Cha’s words. Su Cha doesn’t intend to confuse him, so he only said: “If you don’t want to understand, then don’t. This issue has nothing to do with you, so you only need to follow Wangye’s order.”
“What order?” Liu Bai asks to keep up with Su Cha.
This brother ah!
Su Cha doesn’t want Liu Bai to go farther and farther to the wrong side. So, he kindly reminded him: “The meaning to Wangye’s order is very obvious. He wants us to listen to Wangfei.”
“Want us to listen to that woman?” When Liu Bai said those words, Su Cha’s voice immediately turns cold: “Liu Bai, you mustn’t forget our position and identity. Lin Chujiu is Xiao Tianyao’s wife. We shouldn’t always consider that we are Xiao Tianyao’s friends. So, put her as Wangfei in your eyes.”
“Well, she isn’t worthy to be… …”
Liu Bai haven’t finished saying his words when Su Cha suddenly interrupted him: “Liu Bai, can you be more fair? Just because you don’t find Wangfei pleasing to your eyes, you immediately rush Miss Mo to become Xiao Tianyao’s concubine. What good will it bring to their life?”
“Miss Mo doesn’t have another choice.” Liu Bai said as if he was really righteous. However, Su Cha cut him off by saying: “You’re not expecting me to believe that, right?”
Su Cha reminded. However, he doesn’t want Liu Bai to feel so sad, so he patted his shoulder and readily find Lin Chujiu.

When Zhezhu and Feicui received the news that Lin Chujiu will return to her courtyard to change clothes. They already prepared everything: “Wangfei, this slave will help you to take a bath.”
The Four maidservants help her together. So, they only took quarter an hour to help her bathe, put a dress, makeup and set of jewelry.
Lin Chujiu has been closing her eyes during the whole process. She only opens them up when the four maidservant’s hands stop and show her the bronze mirror. Her reflection in the mirror looks so noble. So, Lin Chujiu said with her thin lips: “Let’s go.”
Lin Chujiu got up. Her four maidservants obediently follow her. So her imposing manner looks extravagant.
The four of them has already seen Lin Chujiu dress up and acted like this when she entered the palace. So, they can already take the shock. However, it was only the first time for Liu Bai and Su Cha. So both of them got so shocked. Su Cha’s eyes even flashed in amazement!
Lin Chujiu always act so casually. There’s always this tranquil smile on her face that makes her look so kind and pleasant. She never acted like a real princess. So, a person would mistakenly think that she is nothing but a soft-hearted person, but now… …
That she was in a dressed up and has put away the smile on her face. She completely looks like a different person. Her elegant and calm appearance completely vanished and change into a noble and powerful princess.
“As expected to the Guo Gong Fu’s old lady. Her teachings are not as significant as the dew from the mountain. But during the critical moment, it can shake the heaven and earth.”
Now, Su Cha finally understands why a young lady from such noble family is very hard to ask in marriage.
It’s not about their family’s name, it’s about their upbringing. Those noble ladies education and knowledge are not far behind men. So, their existence is enough to fill out the absence of men. Because their upbringing can shake the heaven and earth.
Such wisdom and tolerance can only be taught by such noble family.
Su Cha couldn’t help but say: “The Crown Prince lost.”
He picks up the sesame seed and lost the watermelon. If the Crown Prince will learn that he lost such a woman, his intestines would definite turn green in regrets… …
