Chapter 22

They were not stupid at all. They knew who to flatter and who to trample on.

His highness had ordered them to collect the princess' corpse, so naturally they would do it.

Since Princess Consort wasn't dead yet, they would turn her into a corpse.

The maids all revealed an ominous glow as they grinned at Chen Ning, slowly approaching her.

"Young miss, these servants want to harm you. Quickly run, quickly run!" Xiao Ru saw through the maids' intentions. She took in a cold breath and loudly shouted. "Young miss, these servants want to harm you.

"Run? This palace is filled with his highness' people, even if she grows wings, she won't be able to run. Princess, you should just obediently climb into the coffin and save these servants from making a move. "

The maids and servants surrounded Chen Ning as the leader of the maids coldly spoke.

In their eyes, Chen Ning was already meat on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered.

Xiao Ru was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. She desperately shouted, "My family's young miss is his highness' legal princess, she is your master! Master! You are trying to kill your master! You ….. Aren't you afraid his highness will cut off your heads if he finds out? "

"We are following his highness' orders to collect the princess' corpse." The leader of the maids dragged out the words collect the corpse.

She saw that Chen Ning was not moving and knit her brows. She waved her hand, "Princess, since you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, then these servants can only make a move. Everyone, let's go and lock her in the coffin! "

The maids and servants rubbed their palms together as they closed in on Chen Ning.

The situation was critical. Xiao Ru was so anxious that she couldn't even cry.

"He, he." Chen Ning who was surrounded by the crowd suddenly smiled.

Her smile stunned everyone, even Xiao Ru was not an exception.

Xiao Ru stared at Chen Ning and her heart kept shouting, "God, it can't be, right? Was his Young Miss scared out of her wits? The fire was burning and people were about to kill her, but the young miss could still smile! "

The maids and servants thought that Chen Ning had been scared silly, but they did not care if Chen Ning was crazy or not. They just wanted to send her into the coffin.

"Really, the dog raised by the owner! The dog servants of Chu Shao Yang's palace all deserve a beating! "

The smile on Chen Ning's face suddenly disappeared. Her voice was cold and her face was covered in a layer of frost.

Under the moonlight, her white clothed slender figure stood straight, looking inviolable.

Everyone was shocked by her. They paused for a moment, then stepped forward again.

She was just a paper tiger, what was there to be afraid of!

They had a lot of people, they would not be scared by a sixteen or seventeen year old girl.

Chen Ning's lips curled into a cold smile. There was no fear in her eyes at all.

She came from the modern era and had learned martial arts. Although compared to Chu Shao Yang, her little bit of martial arts was not even worthy of carrying his shoes, it was still enough to teach these lazy slaves a lesson.

These snobbish servants, if she didn't teach them a lesson, how would she have a foothold in the Wangfu in the future?!

Her eyes fell on the arrogant face of the leading old maid. She was the first one she wanted to teach a lesson to.

"Pa!" A crisp slap broke the silence of the night.

Before the crowd could react to what had happened, two more crisp smacking sounds were heard.

The leading maid opened her mouth and with a "wa" sound, her teeth fell to the ground and her face swelled up like a pig's head.
