Gu Changsheng sat inside the carriage and spoke coldly.
"Ah! There's a woman inside the carriage!"
Outside, an immediate cry of surprise from a guard was soon replaced by disdainful chuckling.
"Haha! Just as I thought, with such an ordinary carriage, it surely isn't used by a major household!"
"This must be some noble lady from who knows where, coming to Hengtang Lake in hopes of catching the eye of our Prince!"
"Exactly! A bunch of delusional women! What kind of person is our Prince? How could he be matched with such rough weeds? Simply overreaching and unfathomably foolish!"
Si Xi listened and felt that something was off; how had his Lady fallen to the level of one of those women who cling to power and influence?
"How dare you! To show such disrespect to my Lady!" Si Xi, without hesitation, cracked his whip and sternly rebuked them.
His Lady was the treasure of his master's heart, how could he allow her to be defiled in such a manner?
