Chapter 199 "Marquis of Xiangyang, you are overstepping your authority! I am your eldest sister
Shen Changle arrived outside the gate of Qinghua Palace, and Baizhi stepped forward to negotiate with the guards.
"Her Royal Highness, the Princess, has decreed the release of the Marquis of Xiangyang, Anguo."
The guard knelt on the ground, but was in trouble.
"Your Highness... The imprisonment of the Marquis of Xiangyang is the Emperor's will. We..."
Shen Changle glanced at him, his tone filled with irresistible pressure.
"If my royal brother asks for punishment, I will bear the full responsibility."
The guard knew the eldest princess's status in the emperor's mind, so he didn't dare to delay any longer and hurriedly got up to unlock the door.
Shen Changle gestured to Baizhi to go inside and pick up the person, then turned around and left.
Baizhi went in, but ran out after a moment in a slightly panicked manner.
"Your Highness, there's no one inside!"
no one?
Shen Changle turned around suspiciously and looked at the two guards guarding the door.
The two guards looked at each other, both of them were shocked and unbelievable.
"What? That's impossible! He was still in there when we delivered food this morning!"
He knelt down hurriedly to pay his respects to Shen Changle.
"Please wait a moment, Your Highness, and let me go in and investigate."
Shen Changle nodded and watched Bai Zhi and the other two enter.
After waiting for a long time, no one came out.
She felt a little uneasy and called out:
"White pheasant?"
There was no response from Neri.
She looked at the dark doorway and took two steps back cautiously.
As he turned to leave, a strong force grabbed his waist and dragged him inside.
Close your eyes subconsciously.
Until the whistling wind stopped and the palace door closed with a snap.
She landed steadily in a strong embrace and opened her eyes hesitantly.
When she looked up and saw the familiar face above her head, she quickly stood up.
Hold down the madly beating heart and suppress the dusty memories!
She tried to remain calm, but her trembling hands betrayed her inner panic...
She really didn't expect that the Marquis of Xiangyang in Anguo would be him!
She thought... he had died a long time ago.
Taking a deep breath, she suppressed her frantic emotions and raised her eyes steadily.
"Marquis of Xiangyang, what do you mean?"
The face that looked at least 70% like Jiang Ci'an had a frozen expression and slightly narrowed eyes.
"What did you call me?"
Shen Changle secretly clenched his fists, pretending to be meeting him for the first time.
"Isn't it right for me to call you Marquis of Xiangyang?"
"You don't remember me?"
Shen Li... No, Mu Li squeezed out these words with difficulty from between his clenched teeth.
Anger mixed with resentment.
Shen Changle glanced at the whip rope hanging around his waist and abdomen, raised his eyebrows and tilted his head.
"What do you mean by this, Marquis Xiangyang? Have I... ever met you?"
"you……"
Seeing the guards and Bai Zhi lying on both sides of the palace gate, Shen Changle turned around with forced calmness.
"I came here with good intentions to save you, but you injured my maid. Is this the etiquette of the Marquis of Xiangyang?"
Mu Li smiled helplessly at himself and nodded.
I continued speaking along with what she said.
"I traveled thousands of miles to aid the capital of Qi, yet the Emperor of Qi imprisoned me here. Is this how Qi treats its guests?"
Seeing that he finally stopped dwelling on the past, Shen Changle turned around leisurely and smiled softly.
"My Royal Brother did something inappropriate in this matter, and I apologize to you on his behalf.
Please ask Marquis Xiangyang to move to the Changsheng Palace. This palace and Prince Yu will host a banquet to welcome you and apologize."
Anshi...
A cold light flashed in Mu Li's eyes again, filled with resentment and anger.
"Your Highness, do you have to speak to me like this? You know, I'm not from Anguo!"
Shen Changle didn't want to talk to him any more, so he took a deep breath and looked at him calmly and cruelly.
“I am not interested in the life story of Marquis Xiangyang.
I came here today only to comply with the wishes of the Prince Consort and to release you from detention.
As for whether you want to stay or go, or whether you want to leave the palace or not, it’s up to you.”
She turned to leave and raised her hand to open the door, but Mu Li came and pulled her elbow, turned her around, and pressed it against the door.
He held her in his arms.
When I looked up, I saw his face. It was only three inches away and I could hear his breathing.
"look into my eyes!"
Mu Li frowned and growled.
He didn't believe that Shen Changle would really forget him!
From the moment he saw Jiang Ci'an in Andu, he firmly believed...
She was with Jiang Ci'an only because she treated Jiang Ci'an as his substitute!
She couldn't have forgotten him!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so surprised when she saw him just now.
She must still remember it!
"Shen Changle, you owe me an explanation!"
Shen Changle avoided his sharp gaze and gently pushed his hot chest with her hand through the handkerchief.
"Marquis Xiangyang, you are overstepping your authority! I am your eldest sister-in-law."
"Heh...eldest sister-in-law?"
He restrained her wrist that was pushing him with one hand and pressed it against the door;
With his other hand he gripped her jaw, forcing her to look him in the eyes.
"I've worked so hard to get to this point, and if I just wait a little longer...
Just wait a little longer and I'll come find you! Why are you with another man?
He looks so much like me..."
Ha ha!
Simply ridiculous!
In her previous life, she suffered such a great disaster, the State of Qi was destroyed, but he didn't do anything!
Wait for him?
Why?
Who is he?
If Ci'an hadn't returned to Anguo to ask for help, he wouldn't have thought of lending a helping hand!
It's ridiculous...
Thinking of this, Shen Changle's eyes showed a bit more disdain and ridicule.
"I don't understand what Marquis Xiangyang is saying. Even if I'm not with Ci'an, my consort will only be Lu Mingchao."
She tilted her chin up and spoke every word clearly, fearing that he might not hear clearly.
Mu Li indeed understood, and he squeezed her wrist so hard that it felt like it was broken, his eyes filled with hatred and sadness.
"Then who am I... If you don't care about me, why did you send me to Anguo!"
Shen Changle just wanted to laugh after hearing this.
How many years ago did this happen?
She had forgotten it long ago!
Moreover, his story with her... ended long before he went to Anguo.
Seeing her lowering her eyes in thought, Mu Li grabbed her wrist and shook her shoulders vigorously.
"Speak up! Answer me!"
Seeing her struggle, he grabbed the back of her head and pretended to kiss her forcefully...
"Let go...let me go, I'm already married!"
Shen Changle's words undoubtedly made him even more demented.
The actions are also more violent!
Just when Shen Changle was unable to break free, the palace door behind him was kicked to pieces.
"Changle!"
When Jiang Ci'an saw Mu Li forcing Shen Changle, he kicked Mu Li away.
Mu Li bumped into the wall, smashed the table and chairs, rolled on the ground and spit out blood.
But he was still not satisfied, and strode forward with his fists raised.
"You dare to touch Changle, you are seeking death!"
He knelt on top of him and punched him again and again.
Mu Li was unable to fight back and soon passed out.
Seeing this, Shen Changle hurriedly rushed over to Jiang Ci'an and hugged his fist.
"No, no more fighting! Say goodbye!
He is your mother's adopted son. If you beat him to death, you will be criticized by the people of An!
Your mother would also mistakenly think you were jealous..."
"Changle!"
Jiang Ci'an's eyes were bloodshot and terrifyingly scarlet due to extreme anger.
Shen Changle was not afraid of him at all. Although he was also frightened, he still hugged him, patted his back, and persuaded him softly:
"It's okay, I'm fine... Ci'an, don't be angry, don't be angry..."
