When Xiao Jue came over, Yun Ruying had already taken a step back, and the domineering expression on her face turned pitiful.
Those who had looked down upon Qin Zhen before also stood behind Yun Ruying and calmed down their momentum.
The corner of Xiao Yu's mouth twitched when she saw it. She was about to say that these people are really capable of changing their faces. But when she turned around and saw Qin Zhen, Xiao Yu fell silent.
It turns out that the person who is best at changing faces is beside her.
The person who just arrogantly threw wine in someone's face now seemed to have been greatly wronged, and his eyes were red.
When Xiao Jue came over, he saw Qin Zhen's red eyes at a glance, and his face instantly darkened.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!" The group of women around Yun Ruying said respectfully.
Yun Ruying also shouted softly: "Your Highness."
But Xiao Jue didn't seem to see them, and went straight to Qin Zhen, asking nervously: "What's wrong with you?"
Qin Zhen pursed her lips, stopped talking, and said in a low voice: "It's okay."
"My eyes are red and you still say it's okay!" Xiao Jue was a little annoyed and wanted to reach out and hug Qin Zhen, but he didn't dare in front of everyone. He only said anxiously, "What happened, please tell me."
Qin Zhen gritted her teeth and remained silent, not speaking.
Xiao Jue took a deep breath, turned to look at Yun Ruying and the others, and asked Qin Zhen in a deep voice: "Did they bully you?"
Qin Zhen did not answer his words, but said: "There are many people here and it is not suitable for His Royal Highness to stay here. You should go back quickly."
Xiao Jue felt a pain in her heart, thinking how could she be so good. It was obvious that she had been wronged, but she did not speak up for herself, instead she became worried about herself.
The more Qin Zhen behaves like this, the less Xiao Jue can leave her alone.
Xiao Jue took a step forward, turned slightly to block Qin Zhen behind him, faced Yun Ruying, and asked coldly: "Did you bully her?"
Yun Ruying's face turned pale. Facing the prince's questioning, she felt as if her face had been torn off and put on the ground and stepped on severely.
He is obviously her husband, but now he is standing next to another woman questioning herself.
Seeing that Yun Ruying was still reluctant to speak, Xiao Jue suddenly turned to look at Xiao Yu who was standing aside watching the show, and said in a deep voice: "You tell me."
Xiao Yu blinked and wondered why the fire burned him.
She glanced at Qin Zhen, and then said leisurely: "It's nothing, it's just that the girls brought by the Crown Princess were very rude, and they opened their mouths and said that Princess Anshun was uneducated."
Seeing Xiao Jue's face getting more and more ugly, Xiao Yu added fuel to the fire and said, "If I hadn't stopped her just now, that girl's slap would have fallen on Princess Anshun's face."
I don’t know who gave her the confidence to dare to attack the commander at the palace banquet."
Xiao Yu's two words were light and easy, but Yun Ruying and others' expressions changed.
Especially the person who had a fight with Qin Zhen before.
Qin Zhen poured wine on her and she was still dripping wine from her chin.
Upon hearing what Xiao Yu said, he quickly said in a panic: "Your Highness, that's not what happened. I..."
"The following is a crime! Someone comes and drives her out of the palace!" Xiao Jue said in a deep voice.
Before the woman could finish her defense, someone covered her mouth and dragged her out.
Yun Ruying felt that Xiao Jue's slap was about to hit her face.
Yun Ruying took a deep breath and lowered her voice and said: "Your Highness, do you have to make such an ugly scene today? That's the person next to me. You dealt with her without asking. Isn't it too disrespectful of me?"
Take it seriously?"
"You despise me so much, what will my father think if he sees you?"
It was okay if Yun Ruying didn't say the last sentence. As soon as she said the last sentence, Xiao Jue's face suddenly darkened and he asked slowly: "Are you threatening me?"
Yun Ruying said quickly: "I didn't, I just..."
"That's enough!" Xiao Jue interrupted Yun Ruying and said coldly, "Don't think that relying on your father's power you can do whatever you want and even ignore me. Think clearly that your ultimate support is you.
Dad, it’s still me.”
Yun Ruying: "..."
"Leave here, I don't want to see you." Xiao Jue said solemnly, "Also, you are not allowed to get close to Zhen Zhen in the future. If you are discovered by me again, don't blame me for being rude."
Yun Ruying's face was blue and purple, as if she had opened a big dyeing workshop.
But now in front of everyone, she can't make a fuss, and she doesn't dare to make a fuss.
She gave Qin Zhen a fierce look, turned around and left.
After all those people left, Xiao Yu said wisely: "You guys take your time and chat."
Seeing Xiao Yu also leaving, Xiao Jue looked at Qin Zhen, his eyes full of heartache: "They are all talking nonsense, don't take it to heart."
Qin Zhen sneered in her heart. She didn't know who was the same person who disliked her as a bandit and having no rules.
Qin Zhen glanced at him and then whispered: "You treat the Crown Princess like this. What should you do if she is angry? Go and apologize to her and comfort her."
Xiao Jue frowned: "What are you talking about?"
"Her father is a censor, and offending him will be detrimental to you." Qin Zhen persuaded her earnestly, "With her support, your future will be much easier."
Xiao Jue gritted his teeth: "But I can't just watch you suffer."
"I'm not wronged," Qin Zhen said immediately, "The Crown Princess didn't do anything. It was the people around her who were rude and had nothing to do with her. Your Highness, you shouldn't have treated the Crown Princess like that just now."
Xiao Jue gritted his teeth, stared at Qin Zhen, and said in a deep voice: "I'm going to coax her, what are you going to do? I can't stand you being wronged like this."
Qin Zhen smiled and said, "I'm really fine."
Xiao Jue wanted to say more, but Qin Zhen became a little impatient. She kept her expression straight and said, "You have been standing here for too long. If you stay any longer, His Majesty will notice."
When Xiao Jue heard this, his expression changed, and finally he said: "Don't worry about me, take care of yourself. Don't worry, I won't make it easy for those who bully you."
After saying this, Xiao Jue turned around and left. Looking at the direction, he followed the direction the Crown Princess left.
Qin Zhen sneered, and the aggrieved expression on her face disappeared instantly.
She sat down again and looked at the previous dishes. She suddenly felt that she had lost her appetite.
She picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured herself a glass of wine. She took a sip from the wine glass, and then her expression froze.
She took another sip of the liquid in the wine glass and then looked at the wine flask. She was dumbfounded.
At the palace banquet, the wine jug was actually filled with boiled water?
Qin Zhen felt it was incredible.
Her eyes turned around and landed on the wine bottle on the next table.
She thought for a while, but couldn't hold back her curiosity. She slowly reached out and took the wine bottle from the next table. When she was about to pour herself a glass to see if it was boiled water, someone grabbed her wrist.
As soon as Qin Zhen raised her head, she looked into Shanglou Yan's smiling eyes.
Lou Yan looked down at her and said with a half-smile, "You're stealing a drink while I'm not around?"
