Chapter Twenty-Four
Then. The man beside her, her husband, played what kind of role in this matter? He knew early on that the evidence was fake, so he didn't care at all. Even if it were true, what could be done to him? He is the King of Yan, a fearless ruler. With his power, these so-called evidences are completely unnecessary. If he really wanted to destroy the Xia family, there would have been no need to wait until today.
He allowed Xia Zi to threaten her with evidence and marry him, what a farce. He clearly didn't love her, but quietly coerced her into marrying him by keeping everything under his control.
"Miss——"
Zi'er's worried expression was written all over her face. Seeing her master's listless and dispirited appearance, she didn't know how to comfort him.
On the long corridor of the Wangfu, several tall and sturdy figures stood guard on both sides, five steps a post, ten steps a row, guarding with utmost severity.
The one in the front, with a majestic physique, had distinct and deep facial features, like a Greek sculpture. His dark eyes seemed wild and untamed. He wore a long shirt made of cloud-patterned brocade, with black silk threads embroidered with four-leaf clover at the collar. A white jade belt was around his waist, with a white jade pendant hanging from it. He had an elegant temperament and an imposing presence.
Next to him, a man wearing a fur hat with a black satin trim on the brim, embroidered with various auspicious patterns and a piece of high-quality jade attached to his forehead, followed by several attendants dressed in similar attire, their clothes shining brightly, adorned with pearls, it was clear that they were not ordinary people.
"With the prince's help, Xiao Wang felt at ease and went back to report to his father, the king."
extremely humble tone
Mo Yunxuan's lips curved slightly upwards, her black eyes with a hint of a smile.
"Prince Chengjun is being polite, the armistice between the two countries is beneficial and harmless to both sides, and also brings many benefits to the people of Muxuan and Xiyue. This time, Princess Xi of Xiyue came to form an alliance, which shows the sincerity of Emperor Xi of Xiyue in seeking peace. I am just doing my part."
As he walked to the door of the study, "creak" sounded as the door opened, a faint light cut through the entire dark space. As soon as it was open, Mo Yunxuan's figure stopped in front of the door, and the few people behind him were also stunned.
The bright light pierced her eyes and was painful, Xia Zi Li raised her fair hand in a natural defensive gesture.
"What are you doing here?" A slight pause later, a bit of white appeared in front of his eyes, a calm face, and a voice without waves.
The people behind him looked at each other in confusion, guessing who this woman was. Although they were members of the Western Month Kingdom's royal family, they also knew a lot about the royal family of Muxuan Kingdom. To outsiders, Prince Yan would never be as bold and reckless as Prince Ning, but he was definitely someone that no one dared to offend in Muxuan Kingdom. No one dared to speak out against him, let alone say "no" to his face. Yet this woman had the audacity to barge into his study.
Xia Zi Li had already put down her hands, and her eyes were filled with hatred. Although she didn't show the gentle beauty of her usual self, it was enough to make the people at the door gasp in shock, freezing them in place.
Her beauty moves people's heartstrings, refreshing and touching. Whether she is gentle, angry, happy or sad, it doesn't affect her at all.
Mo Yunxuan stood still, gazing at her, his eyes already a gloomy haze, especially when he saw the arrogance in her eyes, his face grew even darker.
"Coldly, 'Lan Ying, take her away for me——'"
"Is——" The blue shadow that had been following him all along was like a ghostly figure
"No. I won't leave!" The petite figure suddenly stood up from the chair, her eyes flashing with determination. Not today. She wouldn't rest until she got to the bottom of it. What was the truth behind those so-called "evidence" and the more than 100 lives lost in the Cao family?
"Xiazili——!!" A loud roar
"No. I won't go—"
In an instant, his robust body moved two steps forward, his gaze lowered and fixed intently on that stunningly beautiful face. His voice was cold and menacing: "Say another 'no', and I'll make you regret being born."
