With General Zhong kneeling, everyone else followed suit and the entire street filled with the Ladies of the city, knelt in front of Xing along with the pale faced Chu Zhilan. The White Tiger Token holds more power than even the phoenix seal in their kingdom. How could this woman be that powerful?
"General Zhong! Didn't I ask you to arrest Chu Zhilan?", Xing ignored the other women kneeling in front of her in the dirty road with their most expensive clothes ruined and asked Zhong Huojin who was confused about everything.
"How are you sure that the token is authentic?", the familiar voice Xing haven't heard for a while, made Xing frown.
Before it was for Huang WanRou and now it was for Chu Zhilan... This woman can never learn can she?

"Ha! Looks like your wife has doubts of my token's authenticity... Should I bring the Emperor here to rectify her doubts, General Zhong....? Is the Emperor that free or is he supposed to service your wife because she is a daughter-in-law of the Zhong family? "
" No, your grace! ", General Zhong got up and slapped MingXue right in front of everyone making her tremble, " Apologise! ", he roared.
" Ah! Never mind, General Zhong. And... Men hitting womn irks me...", Xing pursed her lips," But... Since Huang MingXue doubts me, I have an obligation to rectify her doubts!", Xing gave a bright smile confusing everyone and turned towards her carriage.
She got in her carriage and sat in her seat and picked up the edict that came along with the White Tiger Token and Chenglei got it from her hands. Xing was in no hurry to show that edict and watched Chenglei's face bloom into an approving smile.
Those women were still kneeling as Xing still didn't permit them to raise and since it's been a while, surely by now the wetness from the ground would have seeped in through their clothes and reached their knees.
Let this be a reminder to everyone to not mess around with me!
Xing knew that friend of the Liang woman who threw dirty water at her was among the crowd too and she is now pandering to Chu Zhilan and the other women who were leaving together at the same time for the banquet belong to the same group of like-minded women who pander to the Empress for gaining favours. She has no sympathy for them!
"This sure is my brother's writing... Táng JiaXing! How much more are you hiding from me?", he whispered as he rolled back the edict.
"Miss Táng! You don't have to prove anything. Please forgive us. We'll move back the carriage and you can pass first! ", Xing could see through the curtains, General Zhong bowing outside her carriage extremely stressed out.
"Ah.... I know I kept it here....", Xing just shook the carriage as if she was searching for something. "Since I'm being accused, I'll definitely prove my case!", she sounded determined making General Zhong sigh.
After having a couple cups of wine leisurely sitting in her carriage, with Chenglei by her side admiring her, Xing got out of the carriage holding the edict.
" General Zhong! This token was awarded to me by the Emperor for saving his life twice four years back! You can check it's authenticity... Or, should I ask your genius wife to check?", Xing threw the edict at General Zhong and caught it and closed his eyes and took a deep breath trying to compose himself.
My stupid wife brought me trouble... Once again!
General Zhong wasn't sure if he should check the edict or not.
Will she be offended if I check it or will she find me opposing her if I refuse to check it?
In the end he knelt in front of Xing and gave back the edict with his both hands raised above his head with his head bowing,
"Miss Táng! Please accept my apology for not realising who you are! We will arrange for your passage immediately", he signalled the other guards around and they moved Chu Zhilan's carriage back.
Please don't force me to arrest these women! The court will stop functioning then!
"Fine!", Xing shrugged as she played with the token in her hand and then attached it to her waistband and it hung from her slender waist. She knew she cannot actually arrest these women as they are all the wives of important officials and they'd find it insulting. As much as she hated these woman, she loved the kingdom a bit more and didn't want her father to suffer the repercussions of her actions. But she can not let them go either.
"Tsk! .", Xing clicked her tongue as if she was bored and walked with slouched shoulders, "I lost interest in taking the carriage now..."
Now what? General Zhong panicked. Please, my revered ancestor! Take the carriage and leave first so I could handle these other women! He pleased in his heart. But his prayers weren't answered and his knees felt weak, when he heard her say,
" Lord Li! Shall we take a stroll around before entering the palace?"
Wait... Lord Li is inside her carriage? He watched everything happened here silently? So, everyone here insulted him too? Great!
General Zhong ran towards Xing's carriage with a polite smile and tried to talk to Chenglei but Chenglei already alighted from the carriage.
"Miss Táng! Why are you insisting on standing in the cold? You are not a tree", he looked affectionately at Xing and even spoke in a slightly rebuking tone like a doting lover surprising everyone.
And every woman there looked at Chu Zhilan to check for her reaction.
So are we trees kneeling here? Surely roots will grow if we keep kneeling here any longer!
Not only that, Chenglei wrapped her with his cloak made of Grey wolf fur and tired the knots even.
"Don't catch a cold!", he touched the tip of her nose with his forefinger and she chuckled ever so sweetly making him pleased.
Chu Zhilan whose face was pale standing in the cold for long lost the remaining colour seeing the man of her dreams wearing matching outfits with another woman, alighting from her carriage and looking at her with affection in his eyes.
This is not happening!
But when he gave her his cloak, she fell dejected in the ground. Everyone knows in the kingdom, the only one who probably owned and possibly the only one who'd wear a grey wolf fur cloak openly would be Lord Li as it is illegal to hunt grey wolves. It is said that a grey wolf saved him from an arrow in one of his missions and to honour the sacrifice of the wolf Lord Li asked special permission to make its fur into a cloak for him to wear and from then on, the wolf fur is associated with him and he is even nicknamed 'Lord Wolf' .
Also it is said he is a germaphone and loved his cloak a lot and won't let anyone touch it and here he is... Giving it to that woman.
It should have been mine!
Chu Zhilan bit her lips hard enough for blood to drip from it.
Ximg on the other hand have heard of this cloak and she didn't know he was having this cloak with him today. She gently traced her hands through the cloak and it felt as soft as a grey wolf would be.
He's been maintaining that cloak really well.
She knew it was Pengpeng's brother Mengmeng who saved Chenglei one day when he stood dazed out there in the Eastern Borders in the NanCheng pass.
Chenglei felt she'd get in trouble today after she entered the palace and had brought this cloak along to give it to her after she entered the palace. He knew no one would mess with her fearing his retribution if she wore it.
Seeing her making those women kneel made him proud but he did feel a bit uneasy when she waved that token given by his brother to silence them. It made him wonder if he should take his title of Rui Wang back.
No! I cannot be known as the Son of that trash man!
Chenglei knew having a fancy title is important in this city and right now he is only a trusted man by the Emperor's side who is also a filthy rich businessman.
Will it be enough to protect this woman?
Chenglei wanted to do more for her and he didn't know how and what. He decided to think deeply for now.
Xing looked at Chenglei cutely as she felt pleased by him treating her like his woman in front of these nasty women. But she still had a little fear in her heart that she'd have to face the jealousy and plotting of these women in the future because these women never like others having higher status than them.
Let's just enjoy the moment for now!
"Lord Li... The carriage can be moved now....", General Zhong wanted the traffic to be cleared immediately. If they take a stroll as Miss Táng suggested, the entire city will come to a standstill with her carrying the White Tiger Token around.
"We'll take a stroll! ", Xing was the one who answered as Chenglei just walked in the front.
Xing told her driver to get back to her Manor and all the women kneeling wondered why she insisted on not moving her carriage back if she's going to go on foot to the palace.
Chu Zhilan who tasted the blood from her lips clenched her fists seeing that woman walking towards Lord Li.
There is still my sister to shame you! Go... Go to the palace gates... I wish to see you shamed!
Her lips curled to an evil smile.
