After the female supporting role is quickly put on, she is full of charm

Chapter 256 The Domineering Princess 9

Ah Zhi stroked the whip in his hand and said calmly, "You are only a fifth-rank official now, and you dare to be so rude to this princess."

"This princess and the imperial concubine were talking to you nicely, but you dared to stand there in a daze. You really don't take this princess and the imperial concubine seriously."

As soon as he finished speaking, another whip hit him. Zhou Linxi covered his arm and stepped back repeatedly.

Jiangzhu on the side raised her hand and the young eunuch rushed forward and subdued Zhou Linxi in just a few moves.

Concubine Wang quickly picked up the teacup beside her to hide her nervousness.

She was worried that if Ah Zhi got unhappy, she would be whipped as well.

Zhou Linxi said to Ah Zhi with a look of shock, "Princess, I am a member of the imperial court. How can you casually use private punishment?"

"Lynching?"

Azhi stepped forward and lifted Zhou Linxi's chin with the whip, looking at his fair and handsome face.

The slight force of the whip made his skin turn slightly red, which shows how tender his skin is.

Ever since Zhou Linxi appeared in front of Azhi, he has always looked aloof.

Now that he had been hit twice by Ah Zhi, his eyes were red and his face looked painful, with an indescribable sense of brokenness.

"I did not resort to lynching. I was just whipping people for fun in my own palace. I didn't expect you to come up to me and ask for trouble. How can this be considered lynching?"

Zhou Linxi was originally a weak scholar.

Even if he had a chance to pass the imperial examination and get a job, now he could only endure Azhi's beating.

He never expected that Ah Zhi would treat him like this, like a concubine who was being molested by others.

Zhou Linxi gritted her teeth and threatened Ah Zhi, "As His Majesty's eldest princess, you should be a role model for women all over the world. How can you behave so rudely?"

"If I report this to your majesty, the princess will surely be reprimanded."

Azhi rubbed the whip hard on Zhou Linxi's cheek, leaving a red mark after two or three strokes, which made him look even more gorgeous.

Ah Zhi pinched his chin and whispered, "Mr. Zhou is really born with a good appearance. It's not easy to be an official. Why don't you just follow me, the princess?"

Although the princesses in the past coveted me, they still showed me the minimum respect.

Now Zhou Linxi only felt the other party's frivolity. He was like a decent woman who was being teased, with his face red, his neck stiff, and his teeth clenched.

"I know what the princess wants, but marriage requires mutual affection. Princess, you can't force me."

Ah Zhi approached Zhou Linxi with curved eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and her slightly coquettish voice was particularly harsh.

"Marry? Zhou Linxi, this princess just wants you to be my concubine. When did I ever want to marry you? You really think highly of yourself."

"A face-to-face?"

Zhou Linxi's face flushed and he gritted his teeth.

"Princess, you'd better give up on this idea. Even if I die, I will never become your concubine."

Azhi let go of his hand with a bit of regret on his face, and asked the palace maid to put away the whip in his hand.

She turned to Zhou Linxi who was lying on the ground and said coldly, "This princess wants you to be her concubine. This is because this princess thinks highly of you."

"You should know that I still don't have a lover. That's all. I don't like to force others. Remember to return the 30,000 taels of gold to me before the New Year, Jiangzhu, and have him sign and seal it."

I didn't expect that Azhi had made such complete preparations. Not only did he have to pay back the money, but he also had to sign a seal to prevent him from defaulting on the debt.

Zhou Linxi's face turned pale. He didn't expect to be humiliated to this extent. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes.

Ah Zhi turned a blind eye and forced him to sign.

Concubine Wang standing by was stunned by Azhi's actions.

However, she didn't dare to interrupt for fear of getting into trouble.

Concubine Wang learned a lesson from Empress Zheng: no matter who you mess with, never mess with the emperor's precious daughter.

At this time, Azhi stared at Zhou Linxi with the IOU in her shaking hand. She squinted her eyes and looked indescribably lazy and charming.

"If Lord Zhou feels that he cannot pay back the money, this princess will allow you to pay with your body. One thousand taels of gold each time is already a high price. The prostitutes out there only pay ten taels of silver."

Concubine Wang suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.

I saw her swallowing her saliva and covering her ears with a handkerchief.

I didn’t hear anything. I didn’t hear anything.

Zhou Linxi turned away with a look of humiliation on his face.

"Don't worry, Princess. I will find a way."

"Okay, you have ambition. This princess is waiting for your thirty thousand taels of gold. By the way, if you can't pay it back, this princess will sue you and confiscate your entire family property. You and Zhou Tao will just have to wait to beg for food."

The jade pendant and vase bestowed by the original body were not gifts from the emperor, but if Zhou Linxi really wanted to blame them, he would be guilty of disrespect.

Zhou Linxi felt a little desperate.

This man passed the imperial examination and was given a small official position, but in just one year he didn't even see 30,000 taels of gold, let alone 30,000 taels of silver.

Ah Zhi folded the IOU and asked Jiang Zhu to put it away. Then she waved her hand towards Zhou Linxi and said, "Okay, go back and collect the money. This princess is waiting for Mr. Zhou's 30,000 taels of gold."

"Yes, Wei Chen is resigning."

Watching Zhou Linxi leaving in a panic, covering his arm, Azhi looked at Concubine Wang who had not come back to her senses for a long time.

"I really made the Imperial Concubine laugh today."

Even though Concubine Wang always acts like a spoiled brat in front of Empress Zheng, she actually knows how to read people's expressions very well, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to sit firmly on the position of Concubine for so many years.

Concubine Wang knew clearly who she could not offend and who she could offend in the palace.

"No problem."

She twisted her handkerchief, bit her lip and coughed softly, "The princess is old now, it's normal for her to like handsome boys, but Zhou Linxi is different from others. He is now an official in the court and is considered a member of the court. It's better for the princess to find some men with good looks and family background, who are easy to control."

Azhi raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise. She didn't expect that Concubine Wang would be more excited than her.

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess. I will definitely consider it carefully."

"Okay, it's getting late, I'll go back first. If you have anything to say, just send someone to summon me."

"Go slowly, Madam Concubine."

Watching Concubine Wang leave with a ruddy face, Ah Zhi propped up his chin and said with a little interest, "I didn't expect the Concubine to be quite interesting."

"Jiangzhu, how is Wei Yuanxi?"

Jiangzhu, who was busy, stepped forward and replied, "Princess, Wei Yuanxi has a lot of old injuries from being beaten before. The imperial physician said that he needs to be well rested for ten days to half a month. Otherwise, we should change someone."

The original body in the past was angry and would beat Wei Yuanxi every few days.

She also did not allow Wei Yuanxi to ask the imperial physician for treatment, and as a result, his physical injuries became more serious.

If we calculate based on the original body's memory, it was during this period of time that Zhou Tao saved Wei Yuanxi.

Seeing that Ah Zhi was expressionless and silent, Jiang Zhu gritted her teeth and said, "Why don't I send someone to tie Zhou Linxi back so that the princess can use the whip to vent her anger."
