Chapter: 2243
Shangguan Pengcheng's expression froze, and he shook his head immediately.
How could he be so virtuous as to dare to have a friendship with Princess Wei?
He is just a small earl and has no real power yet, while the other party is the most powerful princess.
The perception of both sides is simply a huge difference.
Even if he licked his face and flattered him, he might not be able to respond.
"If Princess Wei didn't come here because of the Earl's Mansion, then she must have come to cheer for Mrs. Hu's face." Zhang Guozhong said coldly.
"That's right! Among us, only Mr. Hu can talk to Princess Wei." Sun Kang repeatedly echoed.
Although the first-level minister of the Ministry of War cannot be compared with Princess Wei in terms of status, he is an important minister in the court and has a wide network of contacts. It is normal for the two to have some friendship.
"I?"
Hu Xuehai was slightly taken aback, a little puzzled.
He and Princess Wei had only met a few times, and they were not friends. Could it be that the other party suddenly visited her to ask for something?
"Teacher, I didn't expect that you would be so powerful as to invite Princess Wei. The students are so impressed!" Shangguan Hong said with admiration on his face.
"Hahaha... With Princess Wei stepping forward to help, even the twins of the Zhao family can only surrender!" Shangguan Pengcheng smiled with a smile on his face.
"As expected of Mr. Hu! It's really amazing!" A group of dignitaries praised him one after another.
A few sweet words made Hu Xuehai feel a little elated.
Although it was a bit strange, looking at the entire Earl's Mansion, he was the only one who could have a direct dialogue with Princess Wei.
Thinking of this, Hu Xuehai immediately straightened his collar, went up to greet her with a smile on his face, and said respectfully: "Princess Wei is here, Hu is really disappointed to welcome her!"
"Snapped!"
Without any warning, the beautiful young woman suddenly raised her hand and slapped Hu Xuehai hard on the face, and said two words coldly: "Kneel down!"
"ah?!"
The sudden scene stunned everyone.
Everyone was stunned and their faces were full of shock.
No one expected that Princess Wei slapped Hu Xuehai when they met.
No nonsense, no foreshadowing, just so simple and crude.
The problem is that Hu Xuehai is the Minister of the Ministry of War, a first-rank official in the dynasty.
Slapping people in public really leaves no room at all.
"Wei...Princess Wei, why are you beating me?"
Hu Xuehai was stunned, covering his burning face, a little at a loss.
If it were an ordinary nobleman, he would have been furious long ago.
But it happened to be Wei Wangfei, the eldest princess of the Dragon Kingdom, even if he was dissatisfied in every possible way, he could only be obedient. JrNovels.com
