The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

"Princess, you deliberately arranged this time!" Jiang Shuyi gritted her teeth in anger, her mouth filled with a faint taste of blood.

Qi Zhiyu nodded readily: "That's right."

Wei Yifeng arrived, furious: "Princess, today is our joyous day, do you really have to do this?"

Qi Zhiyu was taken aback: "On your joyous occasion, my shop can't open for business?"

"Whose shop opens at this hour?" Wei Yifeng asked coldly.

"My shop!" Qi Zhiyu's answer almost made Wei Yifeng's nose crooked with anger.

Is that what he asked?

"Chen'an, you've gone too far." Prince Wu approached. "Didn't your elder brother stop you from acting recklessly?"

"And..." King Wu earnestly advised, "Return their shops to them, don't bully others by taking advantage of your power."

"It's wrong of you to take it by force."

"Uncle, first of all, I acquired this shop legally and compliantly; there was no such thing as forcibly seizing it as you claim," Qi Zhiyu corrected the King of Wu's mistake.

"The contracts the shop gave me are all on file with the government. If you think there's a problem, you can go to the government office to check them yourself."

"That's impossible!" Jiang Shuyi quickly denied. "Why should I give you my maternal grandparents' shop?"

Qi Zhiyu laughed: "Then go ask your maternal grandfather."

Jiang Shuyi was so angry that her face turned pale.

The King of Wu now knew that this was not the time to dwell on the ownership of the shop. He sighed and said disappointedly, "No matter how you acquired this shop, it is wrong of you to open it on someone else's joyous occasion."

Qi Zhiyu was astonished: "Which law says that if someone gets married, someone else can't open a business?"

King Wu choked, then said angrily, "Stop beating around the bush. You just admitted that you deliberately chose this time."

"Are you doing this for the opening ceremony? Or aren't you just trying to ruin Wei Yifeng's wedding?"

Qi Zhiyu chuckled: "Uncle, you think too highly of yourselves."

"You expect me to specifically choose this time because of them... Don't you even consider whether they deserve it?"

The King of Wu's expression changed drastically, and he said angrily, "Peace be with you, Your Majesty!"

Jiang Shuyi angrily questioned, "The princess keeps saying it's not because of us, so why did you choose this time to open your business?"

"Which shop chooses to open at dusk?"

Qi Zhiyu casually raised her hand: "Me?"

"I chose this time entirely for the sake of the people."

"Only at this time will people finish work and have time to come and collect their goods."

"During the daytime... they all have to work to make a living."

"Only at this time can they come and collect their goods without interfering with their daytime earnings."

Qi Zhiyu's words moved the people who were queuing to receive their gifts to tears.

Princess... Princess Chen'an of the Prince Rui's Mansion... understands them!

This is what it means to truly care about them!

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly and looked at the King of Wu: "Uncle, compared to the common people, who is more important, General Wei's marriage?"

"I chose this time to give things to the people under the guise of opening my business. Is there a problem with that?"

The King of Wu felt a tightness in his chest, unable to breathe, and felt extremely suffocated.

The other guests who arrived were also shocked.

Jiang Shuyi's lips trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Qi Zhiyu did it on purpose, she deliberately messed with her!

"So, Wei Yifeng and Jiang Shuyi, why aren't you getting married properly, and why aren't you all attending the ceremony properly... what are you doing here?" Qi Zhiyu asked, puzzled.

"Could it be that they also want to generously donate and share some of the joy with the people?"

At this point, Qi Zhiyu finally stood up: "Then thank you everyone."

She gave a slight curtsy, a gesture she rarely performed.

Although her movements were superficial and her attitude was nonchalant, at least she bowed.

However, apart from the common people and the people from Prince Rui's mansion, everyone else seemed to have swallowed something unclean; it was utterly disgusting.

Among them, the Wei family, the Jiang family, and the King of Wu were the worst offenders!

The gazes of the surrounding people were like steel needles, piercing them deeply.

The atmosphere has been built up to this point, do they really have the nerve not to contribute a single penny?

All the guests who came to offer their congratulations looked at King Wu, since he was the one with the highest status here.

King Wu gritted his teeth and pulled a silver note directly from his pocket.

He wasn't carrying small denominations of cash; he was carrying a full thousand taels.

"Quickly, take it." Qi Zhiyu instructed the servant of Prince Rui's mansion.

The servant immediately stepped forward, respectfully extending his hand, waiting to receive the silver notes.

King Wu stared at the smiling Qi Zhiyu, and the more he looked at her, the angrier he became.

He really wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he have to join in the fun and come to find out what was going on?

Arriving here, I lost face and money.

A thousand taels of silver was nothing to him.

However, he would rather throw the silver into the water and hear the splash than give it to Qi Zhiyu.

"Uncle, what are you doing..." Before Qi Zhiyu could finish speaking, Prince Wu quickly stuffed the silver note into the hand of a servant in Prince Rui's mansion.

He had a premonition that if he had been even a little slower, the loss would have been far more than just a thousand taels.

As expected, Qi Zhiyu showed a faint look of disappointment as soon as he handed out the silver note.

The King of Wu was so angry that he ground his teeth.

With the King of Wu taking the lead, the others also took out their silver notes.

Qi Zhiyu happily accepted it.

"Come, fellow villagers, let's all thank King Wu and all the officials!" Qi Zhiyu called out to the people.

The people expressed their gratitude.

"Alright, alright, let's continue collecting our stuff." Qi Zhiyu clapped her hands. "The sooner we finish, the sooner we can go home and rest."

Following Qi Zhiyu's words, the people continued to line up and receive their items in an extremely orderly manner, without any disorder.

King Wu sneered, "Chen'an, are you sending things from one place, or from multiple places?"

"Give out things at every fireworks display," Qi Zhiyu said casually.

"Chen'an, in that case, I must say something to you. With so many places distributing things at the same time, how can you guarantee that everyone will receive it?" King Wu frowned.

"What if some opportunistic people go to various places to collect it, and then the people who truly need it can't get it?"

"Princess, what the Prince says is very true," Wei Yifeng said in a deep voice. "You must not do something that would be better than doing something good."

"Even though it was the wicked who took more than their share, in the end, people misunderstood that the Prince Rui's Mansion had embezzled the donations, and they were unfairly burdened with this infamy."

Qi Zhiyu raised an eyebrow: "Charity funds? What charity funds?"

"It's our own family; we can give them whatever we want. Who says we have to give a certain amount?"

Wei Yifeng was taken aback, and felt annoyed. This Qi Zhiyu was truly impervious to reason and had no sense of shame whatsoever.

"Princess, we've already paid," Wei Yifeng said coldly.

Qi Zhiyu sneered, "Wasn't the money you gave you voluntary? The people remember your kindness."

"What else do you want?"

Wei Yifeng: "..."

Damn it, is Qi Zhiyu a robber?

That's so unreasonable!
