Jiang Xuening met his gaze and asked, "Do you have a problem with the Gu family, or do you have a problem with this princess?"

Although her tone was calm, Shen Tingsi felt a biting coldness, and her eyes seemed to be piercing him with a poisoned knife.

Shen Tingsi smiled evilly, "Since the princess has asked, I will naturally tell the truth."

"You say, I listen."

Lin Fu drank and let himself go. No one at the bottom said anything, including the Shen family, who looked like they were watching the show.

Jiang Xuening played with the wine glass in her hand, knowing in her heart that this was an intimidation given to him by these aristocratic families, and it was also a test.

She could show weakness, but she didn't want to.

The internal fighting in Qingzhou has always been fierce. If she were softer, her bones would be swallowed soon, and Lin Fu couldn't protect her all the time.

So it’s better to show your claws from the beginning and make people afraid, instead of being treated as a soft persimmon.

Shen Tingsi chuckled and said, "The princess's style of acting is too flamboyant, and it will be bad if she follows the Gu family's footsteps. So it is better for the princess to stay in the backyard, embroidering and playing the piano."

It looks like advice, but it's actually provocation.

Jiang Xuening's eyes were full of chills, "Oh, it turns out that Fourth Young Master Shen hopes that the palace will be confiscated and his family will be exterminated. Do you dare to think that your father knows?"

Shen Tingsi sneered, "Princess, why should you distort my meaning? Women should not play with power. It is your duty to look after your husband and raise your children."

These words shocked all the female relatives present. The expressions of several ladies changed on the spot, but they held back and did not dare to say anything more.

Jiang Xuening looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile, "According to the Fourth Young Master, the male favorite should behave like a male favorite. It is enough to hide in the golden room to please the master. He should not show his face on such occasions."

"Fourth Young Master Shen, am I right?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about!" Veins popped up on Shen Tingsi's forehead, and he almost said this through gritted teeth.

Jiang Xuening stood up and dragged her skirt, walked up to him and looked up at him, her eyes frivolously and contemptuously crossing his face, stopping at an indescribable position.

"Haha, Fourth Young Master, the skin on your face is also hanging down, and your beauty is no longer there. No wonder you were abandoned..."

Half of the people below were watching the show, and the other half were trembling. There have always been many rumors about how the Shen family rose from a second-rate family to a high position, but I didn't expect that Jiang Xuening would expose them on the spot.

Princess Mingyue is indeed fierce!

Shen Tingsi was slapped in the face by her in public, revealing the most invisible secret. His body trembled slightly with anger, and the murderous intent in his eyes could hardly be suppressed.

Jiang Xuening stretched out her hand to lift a piece of his hair, "Fourth Young Master has time to preach here, why not go back and study the art of facial expression, so as to please the master."

"Jiang Xuening!"

Shen Tingsi was furious and reached out to hold her neck, "I think you have had enough!"

The head of the Shen family stopped pretending to be deaf and mute, stood up and said coldly, "Ting Si, why don't you let the princess go quickly and apologize to the princess."

The Shen family has been in trouble for the past two years, but if something happens to Jiang Xuening, who is the emperor's own princess after all, the Shen family will have to shed a layer of their skin.

After all, Shen Tingsi still had the last bit of sense left in him. His eyes had already glanced at Jiang Xuening hundreds of times, but his hands slowly let go.

Jiang Xuening was not prepared to let it go like this. She mouthed silently, "Master Rabbit..."

Shen Tingsi lost his mind instantly, his eyes turned red and he strangled Jiang Xuening's neck.

The accident happened so fast that no one could react yet.

Jiang Xuening's breath was choked by the pinch. She stretched out her hand from under her wide sleeves and stabbed Shen Tingsi twice quickly and accurately. After kicking him on the knee, Shen Tingsi loosened his hand a little in pain.

Jiang Xuening took the opportunity to add another injection, placing it on the acupuncture point. Shen Tingsi's body was temporarily paralyzed and unable to move.

Jiang Xuening kicked him to the ground, raised the knife in her hand high, and thrust it into his heart.

The head of the Shen family shouted angrily, "Stop!"

Seeing that blood was about to splatter on the spot, Lin Fu, who had been unresponsive, immediately knocked the dagger out of Jiang Xuening's hand with chopsticks, "Today is a happy day, it is not appropriate to see blood."

In fact, Shen Tingsi's clothes were stained red with blood. Her two stabs wouldn't kill him, but they wouldn't make him feel better either.

The head of the Shen family looked livid, "Princess, please give an explanation to the Shen family. Not everyone in the Shen family can be hurt."

Jiang Xuening stood up slowly and touched the red mark on her neck, "Explain?"

Jiang Xuening raised her hand and threw the dagger in her hand onto the table of the head of the Shen family with an unmistakable "clang" sound. The knife was still stained with Shen Tingsi's blood.

Jiang Xuening pointed to her stomach, "If you don't accept it, pick up the knife on your table and move it up until it hurts. This princess will never hide, let's see who dies first!"

Everyone looked at the thin figure on the high platform and had only one thought in their mind: madman!

"You..." The head of the Shen family was so angry that he couldn't speak.

When other people saw that the situation was not good, they quickly made things right. Pulling him to sit down, he advised, "Young people are very angry and can't control themselves well. Don't be angry."

Jiang Xuening kicked Shen Tingsi, and her eyes slowly swept across the audience, "I said that anyone who offends me will be punished."

This sentence sounds inexplicably murderous now. After all, she had just used her actions to explain the meaning of this sentence to them.

Concubine Zuo tried to smooth things over, "On a big day, you should talk less about life and death."

He also ordered people to carry Shen Tingsi down and bandage him to stop the bleeding. The head of the Shen family walked away quickly taking Shen Tingsi with him.

Jiang Xuening sat back with an unchanged expression, the pinch marks on her neck being particularly conspicuous.

She is killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. She is cruel to others and even crueler to herself. This kind of person is the most feared.

At least those who witnessed this scene tonight will not easily provoke her in the short term if they are not sure that she will be killed in one strike.

As soon as the concubine on the left raised her hand, the banquet immediately became peaceful with singing and dancing. It's a pity that everyone is obviously not in the mood to appreciate it.

Jiang Xuening quickly retreated, and so did Lin Fu.

The concubine Zuo was also uninterested and the banquet ended very early.

Everyone left the palace in silence, with different thoughts.

The heads of several major families looked at each other in the night, and their expressions were not very good.

"It's a thorn, and the bones are extra hard!"

"Even if you are powerful, you are also a woman. Don't try to climb on top of us and do whatever you want."

"The Shen family will not just let this matter go. We will just watch from the other side."

The head of the Zuo family, who had been silent all this time, said with some substance in his words, "If you look down on women, you will end up in trouble."

"Does your Zuo family really allow people to marry into your family?"

The head of the Zuo family had an ambiguous attitude, "I can't control the affairs of young people."

There is a strong sense of laissez-faire.

The others looked at each other, each with their own thoughts. No words were spoken for a while, and they dispersed.

Zuo Musheng stayed in the palace to help with the funeral arrangements, and went to Jiang Xuening's yard with a bottle of medicine in his hand.
