Chapter 495: Teaching the Princess a Lesson

Chu Qingyue finished tallying her accounts. Having sold about 500 taels worth of goods that day, she nearly cleared out her store’s inventory.

She also had ten fabric orders to fulfill. The weaving workshop that Ning Yuting had bought from the Shen family was handed over to Chu Qingyue to manage.

Today, she tried selling some newly woven fabric from the workshop and unexpectedly received orders.

“If only we could earn as much as today every day,” she hoped.

Chu Qingzhi brought over a box, stored the orders inside, handed it to Shen Ruyue, then turned to speak with Chu Qingyue.

“The first day is always the best for business, but the following days won’t be too bad. Business is unpredictable, so just maintain a steady approach.”

Chu Qingyue nodded, “Looking forward to better business tomorrow.”

At the inn.

After Li Changle returned to the inn, she felt that she was sure to beat Chu Qingzhi this time. She was very proud and happy.

She took out a brazier, tore off the cover of the plan book she had taken from Chu Qingzhi, lit it, and threw it into the brazier.

The flames quickly licked clean the page, casting a flickering light on Li Changle’s face that made it look twisted.

“Chu Qingzhi, our feud is far from over!” she declared.

Li Changle tore off another page, throwing it into the brazier, reigniting the fading flames.

Page by page, the plan book was torn and tossed into the brazier, consumed by fire and turned to ash.

The flames were reflected on Li Changle’s pitch-black eyes.

“Does the princess really have so much leisure time? To come to this small county just to burn a plan book of little importance seems rather overblown,” Chu Qingzhi’s calm voice filled the air.

Li Changle’s heart skipped a beat. Chu Qingzhi had indeed recognized her. She quickly calmed down. “Since you’re here, don’t hide!”

In the next second, Chu Qingzhi appeared in front of Li Changle, grabbed her by the throat, and slowly lifted her.

Li Changle grabbed Chu Qingzhi’s hand that was holding her neck with both hands. Her feet gradually left the ground, and the suffocating feeling slowly overwhelmed her.

She had a feeling that Chu Qingzhi would really kill her.

At that moment, she understood Chu Qingzhi’s terror – capable of killing her effortlessly, while she was powerless.

Chu Qingzhi looked at Li Changle’s increasingly purple face and said coldly, “If you weren’t a princess, you would have died hundreds of times in my hands!”

Li Changle kicked her legs. Her face had already turned purple. She was struggling to breathe.

Chu Qingzhi threw her away, smashing her into a chair and breaking it into pieces. Li Changle lay in pain, unable to move for a long time.

Xia Wei, who was next door, was shocked by the commotion. She instinctively wanted to check on the princess, but she retracted her hand just as it was about to touch the door. It was better to pretend not to hear it.

In the room, Chu Qingzhi looked at the ashes in the brazier, “Being a princess, yet engaging in petty thefts and lowly acts, if this gets out…”

She pointed at the princess’s face. “I’m afraid you will bring disgrace to the entire royal family.”

Did Chu Qingzhi think that she didn’t want to fight openly? It was just that her ability was limited and she had no choice. Otherwise, she would have killed her long ago.

Li Changle’s face turned red from the mockery. She looked at Chu Qingzhi as if she was looking at an insurmountable mountain. The powerlessness in her heart slowly swallowed her, and she was too ashamed to show her face.

Chu Qingzhi turned around and sat on the chair. Her posture was beautiful, and her movements were elegant and noble. “You became enemies with me because of Jinghong, but do you know why Jinghong doesn’t like you?”

This was Li Changle’s sorest point. She suddenly looked up, “Why? Even though I met Jinghong first, he still chose you over me.”

“What else do you have besides being a princess?” Chu Qingzhi didn’t know why Jinghong disliked the princess; she just wanted to persuade her to let go.

Princesses can’t be killed or fall ill.

If the princess dies mysteriously, the emperor, for the sake of the dignity of the royal family, would investigate thoroughly, and ultimately, this job would fall on Tang Jinghong.

The court ministers have been looking for a reason to bring him down. If the princess’s cause of death remains unknown, he would definitely face impeachment or similar accusations.

If the princess falls ill, the emperor will surely have Chu Qingzhi treat her. Should she treat her at that time? Treating her is repulsive, but not treating her could provoke the emperor’s displeasure and lead to covert retaliation.

Li Changle tried to counter this but realized she was speechless.

Indeed, besides her title as a princess, what else does she have?

“Li Changle, no man likes to be oppressed by a woman, especially a capable man. Moreover, such men particularly dislike relying on women. They want women who depend on them or stand shoulder to shoulder with them.”

“The former earns a man’s protection and affection, while the latter not only gets protection and affection but also respect.”

“Which category do you belong to?”

Li Chang Le was lost in thought. She didn’t fit into either category.

“Li Changle, return to the palace. Let go of Tang Jinghong and find someone who belongs to you.” If Li Changle still refuses to listen, she could only think of a way to marry her far off.

With that, Chu Qingzhi left in a flash.

Li Chang Le collapsed on the floor, crying. Her sobs, high and low, echoed in the room, sounding heartbreakingly sad.

Can she just let go of her five-year love for Jinghong?

“Qingzhi.” Tang Jinghong sat on the rooftop, watching as a figure approached from a distance.

“What are you doing here?” Chu Qingzhi flew over.

Tang Jinghong pulled her hand, inviting her to sit beside him. “The rooftop offers a good view. I can see you coming right away.”

Chu Qingzhi leaned against Tang Jinghong’s broad chest, gazing at the starry sky. “Did you need me for something?”

Tang Jinghong took a sealed jar of peach blossom wine, its pleasant aroma wafting through the air. “A friend sent me some spring-brewed peach blossom wine. I wanted you to try it.”

Chu Qingzhi examined the jar, “Let’s drink the wine later. 1 want to tell you something.”

“What is it?”

Chu Qingzhi turned to look at Tang Jinghong, his sharply defined jaw catching her eye. She thought to herself, Jinghong is really handsome from every angle. “I just went to see the princess.”

“The princess?” Tang Jinghong was surprised. “The princess came to Shuiyun County?”

“Yes, she even schemed against me. 1 had to teach her a lesson; otherwise, I couldn’t take this lying down.”

Tang Jinghong chuckled, “Why did she come?”

Chu Qingzhi touched his face, “Of course, it was for you. She stole my plan book and arranged for human traffickers to tarnish the reputation of the food festival. She really went to great lengths.”

A dark glint flashed in Tang Jinghong’s eyes, “I’ll find a way to send her back and ensure she doesn’t appear in front of you again..”
