Chapter 2013: The Aggrieved Fiancée vs. Aristocratic Family’s Young Lady (Part 48)

It’s also because Chen Mingzhu thinks too highly of herself and lacks social connections.

If she had been a bit more careful, she would naturally have inquired about the background of this Flower King Pavilion in advance.

The emblem of the Prince Ping’s Mansion was still prominently displayed there, yet she completely ignored it.

Furthermore, if she had even a slightly better reputation in the Capital City, others might have given her some hints out of respect for her beauty as a noble lady.

Unfortunately, they did not.

So, while others were watching, Chen Mingzhu ended up rushing headlong into trouble all by herself.

At this moment, she finally saw the large circle of people surrounding her, including some familiar faces, whose family backgrounds were no worse than that of the young lady of the Marquis Mingyi’s Mansion.

But those people were all standing obediently outside.

Chen Mingzhu was beginning to regret.

The flower shop owner in front of her seemed not to have any intention of tearing things apart, and Chen Mingzhu knew that if she retreated now, today’s conflict might not even count as a conflict.

What a pity for her temperament!

Unable to bear the slightest grievance in daily life, how could she endure losing face in front of a mere small merchant?

Chen Mingzhu thought very clearly that even if the Flower King Pavilion had strong backing, so what? That only meant its owner was formidable.

Looking at Chang Gensheng, she thought if he truly had an outstanding status, how could he lower himself to be a florist?

No matter how powerful his master was, they wouldn’t trouble the young lady of a Marquis’s Mansion for the sake of a servant.

After thinking this through, Chen Mingzhu wore an arrogant smile on her face.

"What kind of thing are you, to discuss rules with this young lady?"

Chang Gensheng’s expression changed.

Gu Shengyin, standing not far away, also grew serious.

She didn’t expect that Chen Mingzhu could be so rough and brainless.

Some of those who did not have good relations with the Marquis Mingyi’s Mansion had already shown a gleeful expression upon hearing her words.

In this Capital City, there are many noble families you absolutely cannot offend.

Among them, Prince Ping’s Mansion is definitely one of the most eminent.

It’s not just because of the prestigious status of Prince Ping’s Mansion, but more so due to its reputation for being fiercely protective.

Other prominent families at least care about their reputation; if you offend them, they won’t show it on their faces and might just retaliate in secret.

But Prince Ping’s Mansion doesn’t operate that way.

If you dare offend it, they will blatantly slap you back on the spot.

It’s that simple, direct, and unreasonable!

What? You want to reason with them?

Prince Ping is the most noble, hereditary king with a different surname in Daming, and the current Prince’s mother is the Emperor’s own sister. What can you use to reason with them?

Chang Gensheng hadn’t spoken yet when the leader of the gray-clad men beside him spoke up.

"Such brazen words, Miss. May I know which mansion this young lady hails from?"

Qi Chengxuan, fearing Chang Gensheng might not handle the situation, sent a large number of the Prince’s Mansion’s guards to bolster the scene, especially dispatching a trusted lieutenant from his side.

This gray-clad man was Wang Zhao, the Guard Commander of Prince Ping’s Mansion, Qi Chengxuan’s topmost person on the surface.

Of course, he was aware of Chang Gensheng’s identity.

To think, the Prince’s future father-in-law was being pointed and scolded by a young girl.

Wang Zhao felt that if he did not handle today’s situation well, he’d likely be skinned alive upon returning.

He looked coldly at Chen Mingzhu, very much disgusted by the brainless fool from the Marquis Mingyi’s Mansion.
