Chapter 163: Chapter 143: Wuhu_3

As she spoke, the Princess forcefully stomped her foot down, causing the Maid severe pain. The Maid kept pleading for mercy, “Spare me, Princess! This servant was wrong. I won’t dare look at what belongs to Your Highness again!”

At that moment, they were in front of a trinket stall. The vendor was an elderly man with some hearing issues. He hadn’t clearly heard what was being said before him, but he understood that the young girl only glanced at the lark he made, only for it to be knocked to the ground by another girl.

The old man felt this wasn’t right. Despite how beautiful they were, their hearts were black. So he advised, “Good girl, I’ll give this to you, don’t ruin the peace.”

The vendor picked up the lark to hand it to the Princess, but before it could touch the Princess’s hand, it was struck down.

“How dare a mere commoner touch this Princess! Someone, take him down!”

Earlier, at the restaurant, the Princess was only accompanied by a few Maids and Fu Xuan’s people, and no one paid heed to her commands.

But now, there was no shortage of people around. Many were cannon fodders enchanted by the Princess’s beauty, foolishly trying to please her by approaching the vendor.

The vendor shivered slightly as these unfriendly people approached. He had no idea what he had done wrong. A large, rough hand had already clamped down on his shoulder, causing him pain. Trembling, the elderly man said, “I’ll give all of these to you, for free!”

Yet the person who grabbed him chuckled twice and cursed, “Who wants your stuff? Princess, watch this lowlife teach this old fool a lesson!”

Some onlookers felt they couldn’t allow this and wanted to intervene, but the Princess’s status halted their steps.

Indeed, this was a Princess. They were mere commoners, how could they compete with a Princess?

Just as those people were about to get rough with the vendor, a loud voice suddenly shouted, “Stop!”

The next moment, the man who had been about to bully the vendor was sent flying.

The Princess recognized the newcomer and her eyes widened slightly, instantly filled with hatred, “Song Yan! Again, it’s you!”

Song Yan was puzzled as to why the Princess would say that to her, especially with the current look in her eyes. The disdain in her gaze made Song Yan feel as if she had returned to the depths of winter.

Instinctively, Song Yan began to think, but she quickly forced herself to stop.

She had to trust the Princess.

The Princess she knew would never do such things to innocent people, nor would she harm a Maid, and certainly wouldn’t look at her with such disdain!

“Who are you?! You aren’t the Princess.” Song Yan stared intently at the Princess, just like Wen Ranchen, first suspecting that this Princess was someone in disguise.

Besides, when the Princess usually traveled, there would be at least a hundred guards for protection. If anyone dared to be disrespectful, those Hidden Guards would have rushed forward to fight long ago, without needing the Princess to call anyone.

This wasn’t the Princess’s family’s style.

This certainly wasn’t the Princess.

Realizing this, Song Yan’s eyes turned cold. Whoever dared impersonate the Princess, she would make them pay.

“Are you mad, Song Yan? If I’m not the Princess, then are you?!”

Song Yan couldn’t be bothered with this person’s nonsense and directly reached out to feel the Princess’s face. But no matter how she searched, she couldn’t find any seams from a disguise.

Song Yan started to panic a little.

The Maids by the Princess’s side wanted to step forward to stop her but were blocked by the bystanders.

In the Capital, Song Yan was quite a renowned figure, with a good reputation closely linked to her usual conduct.

Now, with the Princess’s strange behavior before and Song Yan’s accusation, many immediately believed this person wasn’t the Princess.

They all thought, how could the Princess be like this?

The Princess they knew, although as beautiful as a painting and seemingly unapproachable, was gentle and lovable, making people want to cherish her and fulfill her every wish. She wasn’t like this vile woman today!

“Who dares impersonate the Princess? So audacious!”

“Look at yourself in the mirror before you lie!”

“Who dares try to mimic even a fraction of our Princess’s grace? Deceptive!”

The crowd engaged in conversations, growing more convinced that this was not the Princess.

The Princess was furious, just about to curse when Song Yan slapped her unconscious.

Strangely, this felt familiar to her.

When Shen Jingxian woke up this time, the place was unfamiliar. Not only was she tied up, but her surroundings were filled with stones, without windows, and a pungent smell of medicine lingered in the air. More importantly, there was the groaning of a man next to her.

Wait, groaning?!
