C18 There's a Problem

Yuan Jinsi was never afraid of ghosts, gods, or such things. If there really was a good reward, then why hadn't all the evil people in the world been killed?

When he thought of this, Yuan Jinsi had already taken off her clothes and lay quietly on the bed. The events of the night made her unable to sleep. Seeing the lights not far away gradually dim, Yuan Jinsi slowly fell asleep.

However, on the morning of the second day, just as dawn arrived, there was a knock on the door. At this time, Yuan Jinsi was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up.

At this time, a shout came from outside the door, "Your Highness, please wake up! Something big has happened."

At this time, Yuan Jinsi slowly put on his clothes and asked with a puzzled expression, "What happened?" The voice outside sounded like rouge, and at this moment, Yuan Jinsi was thinking that something might have happened to the Begonia.

As soon as he opened the door, Yanzhi and a few other palace maids rushed up to him and said anxiously, "Princess, the Minister of Rites, His Eminence is waiting for you outside."

At this moment, Yuan Jinsi nodded his head. In his mind, he immediately recalled the little old man. Back then, the Minister of Rites was his teacher, the Prince's Supervisor, who had taught her a lot of things. Half of all these things were taught by him.

Everyone said that he would be a master for one day and a father for life, but this old master was often obsessed with other things, and had not had any contact with him for some time.

At this time, Yuanjin Se had already put on her clothes and immediately rushed outside. A few palace maids held onto a basin of already wet silk and wiped the Princess' hands.

When the Minister of Rites saw Yuan Jinsi, he stood up respectfully and said, "Minister of Rites greets Lady Princess."

"How come you, old urchin, have time to come and see me today? I haven't seen you in a long time. " At this time, Yuan Jinsi said jokingly to him.

Originally, their relationship was very close, but at this time, the Minister of Rites couldn't smile at all. He said with a sad face, "Your Highness, did you chop off the hand of that First Rich Jia girl?"

"What do you know? I didn't expect this matter to spread so quickly. You know about it in just a night's time? "Old Master, didn't you only read the Book of Holy Light to the best of your abilities? Why have you not heard anything outside your window? Why have you also started inquiring about such small matters?" After Yuan Jinsi said that, she made a face at him playfully.

At this time, the Minister of Rites was extremely worried. "Her Highness the Princess has stirred up a disaster. You know who his background is, but the current Prime Minister and his father are brothers in the same family. Now, I'm going to find you to settle the score."

"If I lend him 10 guts, what would he do to me? "So what if it is the Prime Minister, he wants me to chop off a hand and return it to him? I think these people are just too used to bad habits, they need someone to discipline them once they get used to being in power."

The Minister of Rites immediately shook his head and said slowly, "Your Highness, do you know that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the crime together with the commoners? They said that you hurt them maliciously, and then caused a huge disturbance in the yamen. If I wanted to impeach you, you have no way to do so."

Hearing this, Yuan Jinsi immediately became a bit angry and said, "Reject them. If they really do anything to me, I'll kill their entire family. It was clearly that woman who was arrogant and despotic. She beat up my maidservant and was rude to me. Why did it become unreasonable now?"

Yuan Jinsi knew in his heart that this kind of matter that made public sense was actually the hardest to solve. However, on the surface, he could not allow himself to admit defeat. As the daughter of the ruler of a country, how could he allow a merchant's daughter to bully him?

When he thought of this, Yuan Jinsi immediately became unhappy. He should have killed him back then, even if he didn't leave a single one alive.

When the Minister of Rites saw that Yuan Jinsi looked a little worried, he also frowned and said to her, "Your Highness, if you listen to this old official's advice and rush over to apologize, perhaps on account of you being a princess, you might be able to let this matter pass. If they really pursue this matter, it will be troublesome."

"Don't scare my old man. I didn't go to chop off his hand last night. It was obviously that county guard."

The moment Yuan Jinther finished his words, the Minister of Rites shook his head and said, "Your Highness, what's the point of speaking forcefully to me? When he is done with his words, he will tell everyone in the world that your princess is completely unreasonable and that you are using your status as a princess to commit crimes. Your reputation is so bad that the entire world will not listen to you then."

The Minister of Rites seemed to have seen this mood and whispered to Yuan Jinsi, "Why don't we use Prince Consort Ma to make a stand? There might be a chance to save this matter. When the Prime Minister makes his move, all of us will be in a passive state."

It was so complicated that he actually had to seek the help of his enemy. Looking at how he was pondering over it, Yuan Jinsi slowly said to the Minister of Rites, "I have a number. You can go back first. I'll take care of this myself."

The Minister of Rites nodded. However, he still looked worried as he left the place step by step.

Yanzhi asked at this time, "Your Highness, Begonia's injuries have yet to be healed. We can't just let it end like this after we've suffered this loss."

Jin Se frowned and said, "Quickly prepare the carriage for me. I want the fastest one. I want to go out." With that, he returned to his room.

"Princess, don't you need any more food?" At this moment, Yanzhi asked in a very concerned tone. Yuan Jinyi shook her head and slowly said, "A great catastrophe is about to befall you, yet you are still in the mood to eat."

Everyone in the yard fell silent as they heard the words of Yuan Jinsi. Only Yuan Jinsi sat quietly on the stone bench.

Although the yard was still somewhat cool, it was already much warmer than before. The weather was slowly warming up, but things didn't get any better.

Yuan Jinsi quickly thought of everyone he had met before. He recalled what their position was back then and whether they could help. However, after thinking about it for a long time, he still could not come up with anything.

At this time, the horse carriage slowly walked to the front of the Yuan Jin Se. The coachman on the carriage was extremely capable. One could tell with a glance that he had gone through professional training.
