For several days in a row, Meng Ying would come to Luochanyuan early, have breakfast together, and then discuss the details.

When she was tired, Meng Ying would prepare snacks for Bai Zhi and then take her out for a walk.

Every night when Bai Zhi lay in bed, she would think of Meng Ying's faint smile, but when she thought about it, she would always feel flustered. Because Bai Zhi felt that Meng Ying's kindness to her was hollow, like floating clouds. If you reach out to grab it, it will turn into mist and dissipate.

A few days later, Bai Zhi summoned all the servants in the palace and read out the new rules he and Meng Ying had formulated.

There was an uproar below, and everyone's eyes looked like they were about to eat Bai Zhi alive.

"Why are you driving us away? We have been in the palace for decades, and the prince has not said anything. Why are you?" The tall and thick boy roared at Bai Zhi.

The other party was full of momentum. Bai Zhi was really a little panicked. She raised her head and glanced at the opposite courtyard wall. Xiao Yang was lying there, and she felt at ease.

"When did I say I was going to drive you away?! What I said was, if you are willing to leave, I will pay you two hundred taels of silver. If you are not willing to leave, you can stay, but you must abide by the new rules of the palace."

"Why are you breaking the rules? When will it be your turn to make the rules?" This time it was Liu Er who shouted, the one who kicked Lihua into the water.

"I have read the rules just now. Generally speaking, there are more talents! The palace does not breed moths!"

After Liu Er heard this, he rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward in two steps, full of momentum, "Who do you think is a moth?"

Not to be outdone, Bai Zhi also rolled up her sleeves, puffed up her chest, and took two steps forward with a somewhat provocative smile on her face, "I'm talking about you! You get ten taels of silver a month, idle around all day, eat, drink and whore. You get everything from gambling. You are a horse feeder, and five horses died in the palace in one year. All the horses' hooves were not repaired, and the horses' bodies were stinky. Is this your attitude towards errands? Not only do you take money for free, but you also secretly Who gave you the right to sell off the royal family's property?!"

After Bai Zhi finished speaking, she glanced at Butler Liu beside her. Butler Liu seemed to have an attitude that it had nothing to do with him. He put his hands on his hands and closed his eyes to rest.

Liu Er was choked by these words and was speechless, and said anxiously: "The death of the horse in the palace... That is because of the epidemic. What does it have to do with my care?"

"You think I don't know that if this disease is treated early, it can be cured! But you were drunk all day long, delaying the best time. If not you, who should blame you?"

"You...you..." Liu Er was so angry that he wanted to scream with a slap.

As soon as he raised his hand to the highest point, he was hit by a stone that came from nowhere. Liu Er screamed in pain and roared around, "Who is it! Damn it, who is it!"

Xiao Yang flashed in front of Liu Er, "What are you yelling at? I beat your grandfather, what's wrong?"

Liu Er looked at Xiao Yang, who was a head taller than him, and forcefully swallowed the words in his mouth, "Xiao... guard."

Xiao Yang smiled and drew his sword out of its sheath with a clang, "I want to see who dares to take action!"

If the prince hadn't told her not to get too involved, there would have been no way for the princess to establish her power. Xiao Yang really wanted to chop her down with a single blow, but how could he let these people keep forcing her here. He flew to the roof with depression in his heart, and only cast a very threatening look, which shocked the people around him and dared not speak.

Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. If she had really taken action, her face might have been distorted by now.

She turned to face Butler Liu and asked, "Butler Liu, what about you? Do you want to leave or stay?"

Butler Liu put his hands in his sleeves and slowly opened his eyes with sharp eyes, "Princess, I advise you not to bully others too much! I was the one who took care of the prince when he was a baby. I have been with him all his life. You just appeared out of thin air." Princess, the prince will divorce you in two years, don’t think I don’t know!”

As long as the opponent doesn't hit anyone, no matter what he says, Bai Zhi will not retreat even three points. But these words hit home.

Yes, although the prince was willing to let her go through the trouble, the prince said from the very beginning that he would send her away in two years at most. Then what position does she take now to manage his palace and rectify the people who have followed him for many years?

A fake princess, why?

Bai Zhi froze on the spot, looking at the faces in front of her that hated her, her heart beating uneasily.

But Butler Liu did not let her go, and continued to be aggressive, "What do you know about the prince? Do you know why he lives in a secluded place in the world? Or do you know why he doesn't ask about worldly affairs?"

Butler Liu pressed closer and closer to her, and Bai Zhi was forced to retreat.

"Do you know what he likes to eat? When does he turn on the lamp? When is his birthday?"

Bai Zhi took another step back. She didn't even know what Butler Liu said.

"Who is he avoiding, who is he pretending to be in his heart? Princess, do you know?"

Bai Zhi was left speechless by the question, her eyes were a little hot, but she was too stubborn not to shed a single tear.

Butler Liu's words were like sharp knives, piercing her heart one by one. Every time the knives rose and fell, they reminded her of her arrogance, arrogance, and ignorance. She didn't know everything about Meng Ying, but she asked so much from Meng Ying.

Together with Meng Ying, he had been preparing for the other party's fault for several days, but now he was choked in his throat and could not say a word.

Bai Zhi has been forced into a corner, and taking a step back is the ladder.

Xiao Yang was horrified and wanted to come down to help Bai Zhi, but then he remembered that the prince had told him not to intervene, and his muscles all tensed up in fear.

Lihua took Aluo and hid behind a pillar. Aluo was a little angry for some reason. He picked up pebbles on the ground and threw them at Butler Liu's feet.

Butler Liu was so angry that he had no time to pay attention to the pebbles that hit his feet.

Bai Zhi took another step back, tripped over the steps behind her, and fell back uncontrollably. But she didn't feel panic at the moment, all she could think about was what Butler Liu said.

She didn't understand Meng Ying. She was just satisfying her desire to control the palace.

Just as he was about to fall, a white figure flashed past. His sweaty back pressed against a broad and solid chest, and his wrist was held by a warm hand.

"Princess, are you okay?"

It was that familiar voice. When I looked up, I met his worried eyes, which were filled with mist and bottomless depth.

Bai Zhi said humbly: "I...it's okay."

He said it was okay, but the tears he had just held back fell like an avalanche, rolling down his face.

She felt sorry for Meng Ying and the prince for being so kind to her.

Meng Ying whispered in Bai Zhi's ear: "Princess, don't cry, there are so many people watching."

As he spoke, he turned Bai Zhi's body, pressed her head between his shoulders and neck, and let the tears wet his clothes.

Meng Ying turned her head, her eyes filled with frost, and said coldly to Butler Liu: "Butler Liu, you have been with me for many years, you should know my likes and dislikes."

"The princess and the king have been married for less than a month. I wonder what's wrong with these things?"

"It is your responsibility to teach the princess and make her familiar with the affairs of the palace. But you shirk the blame, evade, and don't take the princess seriously at all!"

"Listen carefully! Princess is the mistress of Prince Ning's Mansion and your master. If any of the following offenders are found again, they will be severely punished."

After Meng Ying finished speaking forcefully, she whispered to Butler Liu, "Steward Liu, if you leave on your own, I will not hold you accountable for the ridiculous things you have done because of your greed for money. You can still return home in fine clothes and live a peaceful life with peace of mind."

Butler Liu has never seen Meng Ying speak to him like this. He knows that the prince is a man of his word.

Decades of memories rolled through my mind, and I couldn't help but feel chilled. But if he continued to struggle, it would be a worse outcome. He immediately knelt down and said, "Liu Zhi, thank you for your kindness!"
