Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 189: Slap Her

Li Changnian sneered, calling out in a loud voice, "Where is Ji San?"

A shadow, swift as the wind, leaped through the window, not yet visible before kneeling at the feet of the boy in yellow robes: "Ji San is here to receive orders."

Ye Zhi chewed on the tender shrimp, her right eyelid twitching uncontrollably, her heart pounding faster!

Why aren’t they playing by the rules? Could Ji San be the one to hit her?

The boy in yellow gently opened his thin lips: "Slap her." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Ye Zhi??

Didn’t guess wrong, indeed, it’s about hitting her...

Huanhuan and others had puzzled expressions ??

Who dares to hit my friend...

Upon receiving the order, Ji San, a top hidden guard tasked with protecting the Crown Prince, was also stunned.

What on earth? Hit who?

Before him sat three charming young girls; he recognized the one in the middle as the Thirteenth Princess, so she was ruled out. He didn’t know the other two; the girl on the outside had a delicate demeanor, and the innermost girl was equally innocent and lovely, around eight or nine years old.

Ji San was a master in the Imperial Palace, having undergone rigorous selection to protect the Crown Prince closely.

One slap down, no matter which young girl, would likely result in bleeding, and it might take several days to recover.

For a moment, he was caught in a dilemma, unsure of his master’s intentions, and knelt there without acting.

Li Changnian impatiently ordered again, pointing to Ye Zhi in pink: "Did you not hear my words? Hit her."

The target was clear, Ji San glanced at the girl in pink, meeting her bright eyes, this made him falter!

"What, you don’t listen to me anymore?"

Though young, the boy’s words were filled with authority.

Xue Ling had seen them a few times; in public, the Crown Prince openly commanding the hidden guards might compromise Imperial Family dignity. He stepped forward to stop him, quickly advising, "Changnian, I’ve seen these people at the Imperial College. Asking a hidden guard to hit someone seems inappropriate. You can discuss things properly. Besides, if Ji San slaps, Ye Zhi’s face might swell by tomorrow."

"True."

Approval sounded from companions’ mouths, Xue Ling breathed a sigh of relief, finally persuading him.

However, the next moment, his surprise returned.

"Qingxi, she slapped you before, now go and return two slaps; I will not allow you to be bullied. If she dares to resist, I will uphold justice for you."

Li Changnian presented a posture of seeking justice for the beloved.

The crowd was speechless.

Ye Zhi rose, challenging him with her gaze: "She insulted me first, and the Crown Prince today is being too unreasonable. Do you think the Ye Family is easily bullied? In front of everyone, you have no evidence but order someone to hit others; is there no rule of law in the Daqing Dynasty?"

Authority at a higher level crushes people; the Crown Prince’s power is second only to the Emperor.

Her heart was somewhat intimidated, not daring to go too far, fearing the implication of implicating nine families.

If it implicates the Ye Mansion, implicates father, mother, and sister, then it would be a grave sin.

The female protagonist leaning against the Crown Prince is also a dilemma ~

"You slapped Liu Qingxi before, now letting her slap back, is there anything wrong? I am the Crown Prince, upholding justice here."

Li Changnian no longer used "I," directly using Crown Prince and "I" in his self-reference, aiming to make this brazen girl recognize her status.

He was the Crown Prince; she was merely an official’s daughter.

Qinglian pulled away the prepared-to-retort Ye Zhi, her petite figure rose elegantly: "If the Crown Prince wishes to hit, then hit Qinglian. I am willing to bear it for Ah Zhi, let Miss Liu hit me."
