The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

Chapter 220 It’s better to deal with both of them

Everyone followed Wanyan Zhuer's line of sight and was shocked. It turned out that there were so many daughters of the rich and powerful hidden in the crowd. The most eye-catching one was the second princess Mu Xue, who was graceful and elegant. Su Xiluo and Lin Yuqing were standing quietly behind Wanyan Zhuer at this moment, like two beautiful flowers. In addition, Ding Yutong, the daughter of the Minister of War, was also among them. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a graceful manner. Even the usually delicate Liu Jiaojiao came to join in the fun today.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Li hurriedly bowed to everyone again: "Greetings, ladies." However, when her eyes fell on the second princess Murong Xue, she hesitated slightly, but still said respectfully: "Greetings, second princess!" The difference from before was that this time Murong Xue did not move, but just stood there quietly, with no expression on her face.

"Why don't you show respect to your princess? Isn't this behavior too rude?" Wanyan Zhuer frowned slightly, staring sharply at the woman named Jiang Li in front of her. The second princess behind her couldn't help but feel nervous when she heard this, and secretly panicked. But on the surface, she still pretended to be calm and tried to maintain her dignity as a princess.

At this time, the noble ladies standing behind the Fifth Princess saw this and stepped forward one after another, bowing respectfully to Murong Xue and greeting her: "Greetings, General Murong." Their voices were in unison, filled with awe and respect.

Facing the noble ladies' greetings, Murong Xue just snorted in response, and only a simple syllable came out of her nose. Although this cold snort was slight, it seemed to contain endless majesty and indifference, which made people feel fearful.

Wanyan Zhu'er, who was standing by, was filled with confusion and puzzlement when she saw this. She stared with wide eyes, looking at everything that happened in front of her in disbelief, and then asked loudly: "Why are you so polite to her? Who is she? How could she be treated like this by you? And you, as a princess of a country, are you not as good as a minister?" As she spoke, she stretched out her finger and pointed it directly at Mu Xue.

After hearing Wanyan Zhu'er's rude words, Mu Xue's anger, which was already burning in her heart, instantly became even more intense. She was already in a terrible mood after seeing Murong Xue, a woman she hated so much, and now she had to endure the ridicule and mockery from the Fifth Princess of the Jin Kingdom, which was simply adding fuel to the fire.

However, despite her inner anger, Mu Xue still tried to maintain her demeanor and grace. She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and said coldly to Wanyan Zhuer: "Fifth Princess, I have other important matters to deal with today, so I will not accompany you for now!" After that, Mu Xue turned around and prepared to leave. Before leaving, she still nodded slightly to Murong Xue as a courtesy to show her magnanimity and self-restraint.

Murong Xue did not show much concern or care for Mu Xue's actions. Under the gaze of many people, she still looked cold and inaccessible, like an iceberg. That cold and ruthless look, as if nothing in the world could touch her heartstrings, she was always the fearsome female general.

"You, you..." Wanyan Zhu'er's eyes widened, her lips trembling, she kept saying "you" for a long time, but couldn't squeeze out a complete sentence from her mouth! At this moment, her heart was filled with astonishment and anger. Just a moment ago, she was still the proud daughter of heaven who was high above and sought after by everyone, but now, she was actually stolen the limelight by a woman who came out of nowhere.

Wanyan Zhuer stared at the strange woman in front of her, wondering: Who is this person? When did such a person appear in the Shang Dynasty? And she is a female general! How come her powerful second brother did not mention this woman in the information he provided her? The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Wanyan Zhuer's originally beautiful face became a little distorted because of anger.

The shopkeeper standing by couldn't help but tremble with fear as he saw the situation getting out of control. Which of these female guests didn't have a distinguished background? How could a small shopkeeper like him afford to offend them? For a moment, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, at a loss.

"Dear guests..." The shopkeeper trembled as he tried to persuade them, but he was interrupted by a shout as soon as he opened his mouth: "Shut up!" Wanyan Zhu'er turned her head sharply and glared at the shopkeeper fiercely, her eyes seemed to be able to spit fire. Then, she waved her hand at the guards behind her and shouted: "Take this waiter and the shopkeeper away and beat them up!"

The guards who received the order did not dare to delay at all. They rushed forward like wolves and tigers, grabbed the shopkeeper and the waiter and dragged them outside. "Princess, please spare my life! Princess, please spare my life!" The shopkeeper and the waiter were terrified. They struggled desperately and kowtowed to beg for mercy. Blood came out of their foreheads. But Wanyan Zhu'er was unmoved and watched them being dragged away with an indifferent face.

"And you, what are you doing kneeling on the ground? Hurry up and serve this princess!" Wanyan Zhuer raised her eyebrows, her eyes wide open, and kicked the maid kneeling on the ground fiercely. The maid felt the pain and struggled to get up as if she had just woken up from a dream.
