Chapter 164 Madman
This elegant and noble face is like a finely crafted work of art, making one want to savor it closely.
Her features are as if they were drawn by a painter with delicate brushstrokes, every line is just right, showing a unique beauty.
Beneath his high, straight nose, his lips were slightly upturned, carrying a faint smile that gave him a friendly yet dignified air.
Her skin was as white as snow, crystal clear, and radiated a soft glow like fine porcelain.
Her magnificent palace attire was truly breathtaking.
Made of the finest silk, it is soft, smooth, and has an excellent feel.
The clothes were embroidered with gold and silver threads, and the patterns were exquisite and lifelike.
The exquisite embroidery further highlights the nobility and grandeur of the royal family.
The headdress was equally exquisite, with a glittering phoenix crown inlaid with dazzling gemstones, pearls, and jade.
Each gemstone has been carefully selected, with vibrant colors and dazzling brilliance.
These precious gems shimmered with a captivating light under the lamp, making her appear even more noble and elegant.
Her earrings, necklaces, bracelets and other jewelry are also made of gold and silver, with exquisite craftsmanship and unique design.
These ornaments complement the palace attire, creating a luxurious yet elegant atmosphere.
Although her hair had become slightly loose due to the fall, it did not diminish her dignity.
On the contrary, this unintentional air of languor adds a touch of nobility.
Su Fuying was somewhat surprised, not expecting this princess to look so young. The emperor's sister should be at least forty or fifty years old. She looked like a young girl in her prime.
"You are Princess Yongle?" The woman's voice was somewhat alluring, but her eyes were cold as she looked at Su Fuying, as if they could penetrate one's soul.
Su Fuying bowed respectfully. Even though she had no affection for the princess, she understood that she had to maintain politeness and respect in front of outsiders to avoid gossip.
"I've met the eldest princess."
She spoke softly, her tone calm yet firm.
"I had heard of your great name even when I was not in the capital. Seeing you today, I can see that you are indeed very impressive!"
The eldest princess's words revealed a hint of sarcasm and dissatisfaction.
The princess's cloak fluttered in the wind, and the arrogant aura emanating from her was as chilling as the wind, seemingly capable of freezing everything around her.
Her gaze shot at Su Fuying like a cold arrow, sending a chill down one's spine.
Su Fuying looked at the person without any fear and replied softly, "Your Highness is too kind."
Her voice was steady and confident, and her slender figure stood before people, her powerful aura inspiring a sense of awe.
The princess raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
She had originally thought that this little princess would tremble with fear because of her status and authority, but she did not expect that the other party would be so calm and composed.
"Today you have committed the grave offense of cutting down my horse, a crime punishable by death. Aren't you afraid at all?"
The eldest princess stared intently at Su Fuying, trying to find a flaw in her expression.
But Su Fuying simply smiled and met the Princess's gaze without flinching.
“Your Highness, I did not mean to offend you, but the situation was urgent and I had no choice but to take action.” Her tone was firm and sincere, showing a fearless courage and sense of responsibility.
"Furthermore, I had no choice but to do this in order to save people. According to the laws of the Southern Xia Kingdom, one can act according to circumstances when forced to do so."
The woman's lips curled slightly, and her innate confidence made the aura around her seem much colder.
"So what? I will redefine the rules today."
The princess's face suddenly turned cold, and with a flick of her sleeve, she shouted sharply, "Guards, execute this insubordinate person on the spot!"
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the order, the head guards swarmed forward instantly.
Su Fuying frowned, and her hand quietly reached for the dagger at her waist.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
A loud voice broke the tense atmosphere as Eunuch Gao rode in on horseback, holding a bright yellow imperial edict high above his head.
Upon arriving, Eunuch Gao gave Su Fuying a meaningful look before quickly stepping forward and kneeling before the Princess: "This old servant greets the Princess."
"Dog slave!"
The princess was displeased at being interrupted, but she endured it for the time being, considering he was the emperor's personal eunuch.
"That's what the Princess said."
Eunuch Gao smiled obsequiously, showing no displeasure whatsoever.
"Tell me what's going on."
"His Majesty said that the Princess has just arrived in the capital, and her residence has been prepared. She has been sent to the Princess's residence, and there is more."
At this point, Eunuch Gao paused slightly before continuing, "The Regent's body has been found and is now placed in the main hall."
Upon hearing this, a look of joy flashed across the princess's face. "Found it?"
"Yes."
"Let's go into the palace."
At the princess's command, a large group of people immediately prepared to depart.
"Your Highness, she..."
The head of the guards looked at the woman standing to the side, his face showing hesitation, unsure of what to do.
The princess turned her head and suddenly burst into laughter, a maniacal laugh. "It's been a long time since I've seen such an interesting person. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare her life and play with her before she dies."
"Yes."
At this moment, the new carriage was ready, and Eunuch Gao immediately ran to the side to carefully help it.
Suddenly, the princess stopped in her tracks, looked at the maids still kneeling on the ground, and showed a look of disgust.
"A bunch of useless trash, there's no point in keeping them around."
Upon hearing this, the men on the ground trembled even more violently, crawling forward and saying in trembling voices:
"Your Highness, please have mercy!"
"Your Highness, I know I was wrong, please spare my life."
"Your Highness..."
Before he could finish pleading for mercy, a stream of warm blood arced through the air, and the man collapsed to the ground.
"Help! Help..."
Moments later, the blood on the ground meandered away through the cracks in the ground.
The perpetrator didn't even blink, looking at the corpses on the ground with a satisfied expression in his eyes.
Before long, the large group of people left in a similarly grand manner.
The stench of blood in the air reminded everyone that all of this was real.
Su Fuying stood there, staring at the mess on the ground for a long time without moving.
She now understood why even the Regent had given this eldest princess such a special reminder.
He killed without hesitation, showing no leniency whatsoever. Even with Eunuch Gao present, he could kill someone in the street without a second thought.
Thinking of her frantic expression just now, she looked like a madwoman.
They have power and influence, which makes them a difficult opponent.
"Miss, ma'am."
Biluo had wanted to go forward earlier, but after receiving a signal from Su Fuying, she waited on the side until everyone had left before she came over to carefully remind her.
"Let's go to the Minister's residence."
