The General's Genius Daughter

Princess Huiling went back to Princess' Residences and then was asked by the Empress to come to the palace.

After Princess Huiling entered the palace, the servants in the palace were asked to leave. Standing outside the door, the Empress' close servant Nanny Luo and others soon heard a "clap" just like a slap on the face, clear and stunning.

Soon later, Princess Huiling left the Empress' palace downheartedly. After coming back to the mansion, Princess Huizhen stretched out her hands and swept the vase on the table down to the ground into broken pieces.

The two maidservants Qing'er and Cai'er didn't dare to make any sound, standing asides and lowering their heads with their fingers trembling slightly.

Princess Huiling's left face was red and swollen. As soon as she entered the Empress' palace, she was scolded by the Empress that she acted impulsively without regarding any results. Since Huizhen had been "condemned", of course, she would no longer appear in the capital.

However, Princess Huiling swaggered across the street and rushed into the Mansion of Jinghua to search for Huizhen, which of course had already startled many busybodies. And now the news that the Empress loved her daughter so much and used a scapegoat to replace her criminal princess had spread to the public.

So, the Empress was very disappointed at Princess Huiling and slapped her beloved younger daughter again.

"Huizhen! It was you that made me so embarrassed! Then... I won't be cruel and merciless anymore!" Princess Huiling gnashed and said.

In her heart, Princess Huizhen had totally no qualifications to be her royal elder sister. While in Princess Huizhen's heart, Huiling also wasn't eligible to be her royal younger sister.

There weren't many stories about fratricidal relationships between sisters in history. But there still existed related examples that these sisters hurt each other either for love or for benefits.

And since they were very young, Princess Huiling and Princess Huizhen had fought each other and they had never spent a harmonious day together. So, in the eyes of royal members, it was quite normal that they hurt each other nowadays. As for Zhou Zhicheng, he was asked to meet the princess again immediately after he came back to Dong Hai Restaurant.

Manager Wu was shocked and frightened when he unintentionally knew that the newcomer "Miss Chu" was actually Princess Huizhen. Now, he saw Zhou Zhicheng going upstairs to the fourth floor, and secretly followed him.

Manager Wu came to the fourth floor, only to hear the sounds of a woman's scream and a horrible curse. "Is she the once amiable Princess Huizhen?" he thought.

Butler Wu also heard the gossip that Princess Huizhen had killed the madam of the master. And he shook with fear at the thought that this tender and kind madam finally gained a sad result.

"Zhou Zhicheng... you inconstant b*stard... how dare you betray me!" A woman's heartrending scream came out from the room, and Butler Wu only heard that someone in the room was being slapped.

Not hearing any man's sound, Butler Wu was in a cold sweat and hurried to go downstairs.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhou Zhicheng went downstairs from the fourth floor embarrassedly and his entire face was black and blue.

Butler Wu drew Zhou Zhicheng aside and carefully asked him, "Childe, you're really... ah, really bold! If His Majesty knows that Princess Huizhen is here, we'll be condemned to death!"

Zhou Zhicheng stood there silently without a word. Indeed, Princess Huizhen now was the criminal that had been condemned to death, and she shouldn't have existed in this world anymore.

But when the princess came to him, he didn't think too much and impulsively received her. But now, the princess became a crazy woman and even knew that he accidentally met with Miss Wang and Miss Wang applied ointment for him with her soft fingers.

Just now, Zhou Zhicheng gained the biggest insult in his life. But since it was the princess that he faced with, he should have no right to fight against her.

"Childe, why not find a way to make her leave! If something goes wrong, it will be very troublesome. Not to mention you, even the Zhou's will probably be ruined!" Butler Wu reminded him in a low voice and left silently.

Zhou Zhicheng was an adult and would eventually be responsible for what he had done. He was believed to figure it out.

Zhou Zhicheng went downstairs and surprisingly saw Princess Huiling drinking her tea in the hall, and he went to her with fear to salute.

While Princess Huiling didn't embarrass him, she just faked her smile and looked at Zhou Zhicheng, "Childe Zhou, how did you become this?"

Zhou Zhicheng promptly smiled awkwardly, "Nothing. I fell down unintentionally when I went downstairs. That's why l look so embarrassed like this!"

"But I remember that the stairs here are made of rounded and moist woods. Tut, look at the scratch on your face, it seems to be scratched by your woman's nail."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhicheng's facial expression changed, "It's not... Your Highness really likes joking. It is really because I fell down... oh, enjoy yourself, Your Highness. Your Highness is free of charge here. And excuse me."

He left in a hurry, and the behind Princess Huiling smiled proudly, "It's no big deal for a man to flirt with a woman. But Childe Zhou must be careful in the future!"

Zhou Zhicheng knew that Princess Huiling's words meant more than she said, and he got chilled in his heart, "Could it be possible that Princess Huiling knows the truth?

"Otherwise, why would she say this?

"If she once reports me, the Zhou's will hardly escape from death!" Zhou Zhicheng became scared and vexatious at the thought of this. He walked in circles around the backyard, and then suddenly he got an idea!

These days, Hua Qiyue stayed in Hua's Mansion, cultivating herself in peace. And she would go outside for a walk only if the occasional visitors were Ji Jing and Ji Feng.

And in these days, Zhou Zhicheng also sincerely ingratiated himself with Princess Huizhen. And he asked the cook to make a kind of beauty soup for her which could help her sleep tight till the next morning.

But in the following days, Princess Huizhen felt very itchy on her face and she couldn't help scratching it. So, she asked maidservant to go to the doctor and fetched some medicine which, however, didn't work.

There came out a red spot when Princess scratched her face. The red spot became bigger and bigger and finally turned to a pustule which seriously disfigured her entire face. Her face, red and swollen and extremely ugly, couldn't be recognized at all as the comely one it used to have been.

Nanny Zhou and other servants were frightened and cast a veil over her face at once. They took the princess to the most famous Prince Nan's for treatment, however, Prince Nan was absent and went out for travel. So they had to go to the regular doctor's.

However, the regular doctor totally had no idea what went wrong, which displeased her that she really wanted to kill him!

However, she wasn't the princess anymore and she absolutely had no right to kill these useless doctors.

Princess Huizhen went out of Shanrentang angrily and met with Hua Qiyue who was wandering on the street.

Hua Qiyue was dressed in a white cloth and looked elegant and attractive. The child held in her hands looked around with a pair of black eyes and drew Hua Qiyue's sleeves with a smile when he saw something he liked.

Hua Qiyue tenderly fondled the child's head and bought him a stick of sugar-coated haws.

Seeing Hua Qiyue, Princess Huizhen suddenly remembered that she didn't visit her after Hua Qiyue introduced her. And when Princess Huiling rushed to the Mansion of Jinghua to search for her, it was Hua Qiyue that came up with the idea to teach Princess Huiling a lesson.

"Perhaps... she knows how to cure my face, doesn't she?" Thinking of this, Princess Huizhen stepped forth and stopped Hua Qiyue.

Seeing that red and swollen face, just half face though, Hua Qiyue was still surprised inwardly.

"You're..."

"Follow me!" Princess Huizhen whispered. Hua Qiyue asked Youshui and other servants to wait outside, and then followed Princess Huizhen to an alley.

"Your Highness?" Hua Qiyue looked at Princess Huizhen's resentful and outraged eyes and cried in a low voice.

"Yes, I am." Princess Huizhen whispered and there was a light flew in her eyes. She eagerly seized Hua Qiyue's sleeves. "Princess Jinghua, you've been always extremely smart and do you think that... there is a chance to cure my face?"

After saying that, Princess Huizhen unveiled and presented her hideous face to Hua Qiyue. And Hua Qiyue laughed coldly in her heart, "Huizhen, have you ever imagined your situation today when you framed me?"

Ridiculously, she now still seized the person that had been framed by her and begged this person?

"Your Highness... what happened to your face?" Hua Qiyue was shocked and stepped back, "Your face has festered. It is obviously a kind of powerful poison."

"Poison?" Princess Huizhen stayed there and her eyes were brimmed with resentment at once. "I only have my meals in Dong Hai Restaurant these days!"

Hua Qiyue's expression became serious. "That is to say, someone must have put poison in your meals!"

"But I've never offended the cook, and I even haven't seen and known about the cook!" Princess Huizhen screamed and stamped her foot angrily.

"Your Highness really thinks it was the cook that put the poison? Since you lived in the Zhou's, the cook only regarded you as an honored guest instead of an enemy." Hua Qiyue laughed coldly. "But now Your Highness has nothing at all, so think about it, would the man around you be sincere to you?"

Waking up from what Hua Qiyue had said, Princess Huizhen's heartbeat quickened rapidly. She stood there blankly and her eyes were printed with extremely huge hatred!

"Is it him...? Zhou Zhicheng... no! It's impossible! We love each other so much! It's impossible!"

Princess Huizhen was so hysterical, and Hua Qiyue just looked at her calmly. "Your Highness, a man will do whatever he can for the sake of his great promise. But when you have nothing to rely on and own nothing... If you don't believe me, you can ask him to marry you. And what I only want to say is, please be careful, Your Highness!"

Princess Huizhen stood there blankly, and Hua Qiyue turned around and left away. After a long while, Huizhen didn't come back from the shock until Nanny Zhou whispered her name.

Princess Huizhen came back to Dong Hai Restaurant angrily, but she didn't see Zhou Zhicheng.

And right now, Zhou Zhicheng was in Miss Wang's place.

Miss Wang was sitting in the hall, and her old parents had a glance at the lavish gifts on the table with pleasure. Nowadays, it was their good fortune if someone had an affection for their daughter.

Superstitiously speaking, Wang Yu was a bad fortune for her husband because she had been married to two different men. And her former two husbands both died of illness.

But now, it was really rare to meet with a young man like this who should visit the injured Wang Yu with lavish gifts!

"Miss Wang, your face..."

He saw that there were several shocking scratches that disfigured her pretty little face.

Wang Yu looked dejected, and she laughed in grief. "It's no big deal... I just got scratched carelessly. Dad and Mom, please greet the honored guest. Excuse me, but I want to have a rest because I'm not feeling well."

Watching Wang Yu leaving away, Zhou Zhicheng felt gravely in his heart. "Mr. Wang, could you please tell me what happened to Miss Wang's face..."

"Ah, don't talk about it. It was not an accident. Several ruffians abruptly broke into our house and scratched Yu'er's face, and then they left away. After that, we called the local government, but the prefect didn't take over our case..."
