Chapter 1176: Little Princess 2
He was two years older than the Little Princess and quite a bit taller. With a slight exertion, the Little Princess was using all her strength.As he let go, the Little Princess stumbled backward and fell to the ground.
The sugar figurine in her hand was smashed onto the stall when she fell down, leaving only the stick with a little residue.
The Little Princess’s eyes turned red with anger.
If it wasn’t for the Beimo Empress repeatedly instructing her before leaving the palace not to cry when going out with her Imperial Brother, or else she wouldn’t be allowed to visit the Imperial Sister in Nanlin next time...
She held back her tears.
The guard stepped forward to help the Little Princess up. Since Young Master Su was also quite young and they were on Daqi territory, the guard didn’t want to cause trouble, so he didn’t do anything to Young Master Su.
Young Master Su didn’t expect that letting go would cause someone to fall.
He was a bit at a loss.
The Little Princess had never been wronged like this before, so she threw the stick on the ground and charged at Young Master Su with all her might.
Caught off guard, Young Master Su was knocked back, pulling the Little Princess along, and stumbled several steps backward, crashing into a vendor carrying his load.
The vendor staggered after being hit, and his load of bean curd dregs spilled, burying half of the fallen Young Master Su and Little Princess.
The Little Princess was speechless.
Young Master Su was speechless.
They crawled up with bean curd dregs on their heads, faces, and even down their necks.
Young Master Su was furious.
Seeing the Little Princess glaring at him, he said, "Next time you see me, avoid me, or I’ll beat up your guard when I see you!"
The guard was speechless.
Truly caught in the crossfire.
Young Master Su dusted off the bean curd dregs and walked away.
He had managed to send away the Ninth Prince and the others just to buy sugar figurines.
In the end, he didn’t get to eat the sugar figurine but had a taste of bean curd dregs instead.
The Little Princess was covered in bean curd dregs, even with bits in her hair, and started crying.
Clearly, the street couldn’t be continued to walk on, so the guard quickly went to report to Prince Beimo.
Prince Beimo was happily chatting with Prince NanAn, then asked, "Is my Imperial Sister hurt?"
"Not really, just covered in bean curd dregs," the guard truthfully reported.
"Then take the Imperial Sister back to the palace to wash and change," Prince Beimo instructed.
The wet nurse had not accompanied them due to feeling unwell, resting at the palace.
There were plenty of people in the palace to care for the Little Princess, so there was no need for concern.
The guard took the Little Princess back to the palace, where she cried to the wet nurse, "The young gentlemen of Daqi are not nice at all."
"He fought with me over the sugar figurine!"
The wet nurse dried her tears, saying, "There are good and bad people everywhere."
"This is Daqi, and it is not appropriate for the Princess to speak like this. We are here to celebrate the Emperor’s birthday and to meet the Young Master of Marquis Dongxiang Mansion."
"The Emperor speaks highly of him, and the Princess will surely like him."
"Next time, let him take the Princess out for a walk on the street."
Only then did the Little Princess cease her tears.
Drying her eyes, the Little Princess said to the wet nurse, "I didn’t cry; don’t tell my Imperial Brother."
The wet nurse nodded, "I know the Princess didn’t cry; it’s just that some dust accidentally got into your eyes."
"Hurry up and wash clean, then change your clothes."
The wet nurse had taken care of the Little Princess since she was small, giving her full attention.
Seeing the Little Princess hold back her tears just to visit Nanlin, it was truly heartbreaking.
The Little Princess changed her clothes and played with the little trinkets she brought back from the street.
The more she played, the more unhappy she became.
These things were nice, but how could they compare to the fun of wandering the streets?
She had worked hard to convince her Imperial Brother to take her out on the street, only to have it ruined by someone.
If she found out who he was, she would definitely get her Imperial Brother to capture him to let him know she was not to be trifled with!
The Little Princess was filled with indignation.
The next day, Prince Beimo took the Little Princess to the palace to pay respects to the Emperor.
When the Emperor saw the Little Princess, he was more convinced that he was correct in not allowing the Marquis Dongxiang to break off the engagement.
Such a lovely Little Princess.
Even while missing a tooth, she was so adorable.
After seeing the Emperor, Prince Beimo took the Little Princess to Dongxiang Marquis Mansion.
They initially planned to go directly but first visited the Emperor; it wasn’t appropriate to visit a Daqi minister before seeing the Emperor.
When they reached Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, the Little Princess was particularly well-behaved, and Mrs. Tang took an instant liking to her.
How adorable she was.
King Beimo had sent his young daughter to Daqi to nip the idea of breaking off the engagement in the bud, which demonstrated his sincerity in forming a marriage alliance with Marquis Mansion.
Moreover, Mrs. Tang believed in fate; perhaps her son and Princess Beimo were destined for each other.
Young Master Su was training in the training ground, the difficulty growing each month.
It wasn’t suitable to bring the Little Princess to the training ground, so Mrs. Tang took her to stroll through the garden.
The news of Princess Beimo coming to Dongxiang Marquis Mansion spread quickly; maids and servants gathered to see what the future Young Mistress looked like.
The Ninth Prince teased Young Master Su, "Aren’t you going to see your future wife?"
Young Master Su scowled, "I’m not going to be a Prince Consort!"
Yet he was curious about how Princess Beimo looked.
He didn’t mind his sweat smell; he headed straight to the garden.
The Little Princess was playing, catching butterflies.
Young Master Su instantly recognized her as the girl who made him crash into the bean curd dregs on the street yesterday.
So she was Princess Beimo?!
Young Master Su and his older brother shared similar tastes, preferring gentle and considerate girls, which she clearly was not.
Besides, even if she was, he didn’t want to marry a princess.
This engagement must be called off.
Young Master Su hid in a tree, his mind scheming.
King Beimo might be very fond of the Little Princess?
He planned to use bees to sting her a few times.
If she grew to dislike him, she would surely demand the engagement to be canceled.
Then his father wouldn’t even need to intervene, and the engagement would be called off.
What a perfect plan!
It just needed someone’s cooperation.
Young Master Su struggled but finally persuaded the Ninth Prince to help by applying honey to the Little Princess’s face.
The Little Princess called him "Little Brother" with such affection that the Ninth Prince felt guilty.
The Ninth Prince quietly warned her, "There are bees over there, don’t go."
After speaking, the Ninth Prince ran away.
The Little Princess was puzzled.
What’s the matter with bees?
Isn’t it normal for a garden to have butterflies and bees?
She wasn’t afraid of bees.
The Little Princess ran over to play.
Stung by bees, the Little Princess’s cries were heart-wrenching.
Prince Beimo rushed over upon hearing her cries.
The Little Princess regretted not listening to the advice; she hadn’t expected Daqi bees to sting her.
Prince Beimo noticed the honey on the stung welts and realized what had happened.
Su Chong went to deal with his younger brother.
Prince Beimo followed him.
Young Master Su thought Prince Beimo came to take revenge for the Little Princess.
Moreover, he knew that Zhao Xu had beaten Prince Beimo when the engagement almost fell through.
Mutual affection could lead to engagement failing.
Could he not act against Prince Beimo?
He not only had to act.
But had to act fiercely.
To sever ties between the brother-in-law and brother-in-law, Prince Beimo had to be handled unkindly.
Eventually—
Prince Beimo was supported by Su Chong when leaving the Bee House.
The next day, Prince Beimo, with a swollen face and forehead, went to wish the Emperor a happy birthday.
The Little Princess fared slightly better.
As for Young Master Su—
He was beaten so badly he couldn’t get out of bed, let alone visit the palace.
Additionally, as the accomplice, the Ninth Prince, and Young Master Zhao who failed to report were all punished.
Poor King Beimo sent his daughter to Daqi to dispel the idea of Marquis Dongxiang and Mrs. Tang breaking off the engagement.
This idea was successfully dispelled.
However, the Little Princess vowed to be at odds with Young Master Su.
Prince Beimo stayed neutral.
This little brother-in-law was not someone he could antagonize.
King Beimo was speechless.
