"Ping Wang, in fact, Seventh Princess only did wrong because she loved you. Don't blame her …" Qinglan never expected that Xiao Yuxuan would be outside the door and that this wasn't her original intention. Now that things had turned out like this, she really didn't know how to respond. Seeing that Xiao Yuxuan didn't say anything, Qinglan could only leave.

When Qing Lan left, the atmosphere of the entire Phoenix Storage Pavilion suddenly dropped. Looking at her ice-cold face, Duan Zitong really didn't know how to explain. Could it be that Qing Lan was telling him how much she loved her? In order to be together with him, she was forced to use those methods? Heh, if even she didn't believe it, what right did she have to make Xiao Yuxuan believe it?

"Qing Lan said … You want to leave? To find her, right? " Duan Zitong choked down on her throat, a trace of a smile gracing the corner of her lips.

"I was hesitating to begin with. However, I have decided now. I will definitely not return until I find Mu Yan." The light in her eyes no longer showed even the slightest bit of guilt, and once again, he decided that it was important to find out who was in charge. Now, he could leave the Imperial City without any worries, regardless of the ends of the world or the corners of the seas.

Yes, you will definitely find Mu Yan. Duan Zitong forced herself to smile, but her tears still flowed uncontrollably. Her heart suddenly hurt, as if she was being sharpened by a blunt saber. Currently, what right did she have to refuse or urge him to stay?

"Before I leave the Imperial City, I will write a letter of rest. If the Supreme Emperor blames me in the future, then Yuxuan will bear all the consequences." Her cold voice had no warmth to it, but Duan Zitong seemed to hear the sound of his heart breaking. At this moment, Duan Zitong could no longer hold on as he leaned against the table, the brocade pillow in his abdomen sliding down.

Speechless, Xiao Yuxuan turned to leave, but was stopped by Duan Zitong.

If you still remember the time when you took the Five Rock Powder, Ziteng will take care of you without rest, I beg you, do not be so hasty in writing your rest letter, you can leave as long as you want, no matter how long you have to leave, if you really can bring Mu Yan back, I will ask royal father to annul our engagement, but before that, I beg you, please do not be so cruel to me, I beg you … " Weeping like a small beast filled the entire Phoenix Storage Pavilion. Duan Zitong begged humbly with tears streaming down her face.

"What other tricks do you have up your sleeve?" Xiao Yuxuan did not turn around, but only spoke coldly. When he heard the question, Duan Zitong felt as if the entire world had been annihilated. Waves of ocean waves had submerged her deep within the abyss, and the suffocating feeling made it hard for her to breathe.

"I only beg of you... "I'm just begging you …" Duan Zitong lay prostrate on the ground, sobbing. In the next second, Xiao Yuxuan left without a word. Watching as that god-like figure gradually disappeared from her line of sight, Duan Zitong could no longer suppress the defeat in her heart as she howled out. Her voice contained too much regret and lament.

On the roof, the clear blue eyes were dim. Just as she was about to get up, she was stopped by Qian Ru Ming.

"I know that's not your intention, but if you continue right now, it would truly be unwise. So, let her reflect on it herself. You can console her for that sort of thing." Qian Ru Ming said indifferently. When Qing Lan heard him, she sat back down.

"You … You won't blame me, right? " Qing Lan asked nervously.

"Blame you for what?" Qian Ru Ming disapproved, his small eyes filled with a doting look.

"Actually, I just want to …" Qing Lan wanted to explain herself, but when the words reached her mouth, she didn't know how to say it. She just didn't want to see Xiao Yuxuan suffer so much, but the root of it was still because she cared about this man.

"What you're thinking is not important. What's important is that you will become my wife on the eighth day of next month. From that day onwards, you are not allowed to think about anyone else in your heart. Otherwise, as your husband, I have the right to be angry …" Qian Ru Ming pretended to be angry as he replied.

"Who wants to be your wife!?" Qing Lan blushed when she heard this. Without waiting for Qian Ru to speak, Zheng Ting Ze had already appeared in front of the two of them.

"Crap, if Miss Qing Lan doesn't want to, where can I find a wife for Junior Brother?" Zheng Ting Ze said with a stern expression, but his eyes couldn't conceal the mockery in them.

"Ignore all of you!" I'll go back first. Remember to come back early! " Qing Lan said, and left.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Tonight, your husband still has matters to discuss with the Empress!" At the side, Zheng Tingze could not help but snort with a snort.

"You're not afraid of being tired to death!"

"Don't say that you and Yao`er still respect each other very much, huh?" Qian Ru Ming disapproved.

"Of course! In this world, not everyone is as wretched as you! " Zheng Tingze said self-righteously.

"What is it? Haven't you promised Yao'er yet? At your age, it is your fortune to have a girl that is beautiful like you. No matter how reserved you are, I believe that the spirit of the heavens will still want a girl to take good care of you! " Qian Ru returned to the main topic at hand.

I do understand Yao`er's intentions, but now that the whereabouts of the Emperor are unknown, how could Yao`er and I have such thoughts. A few days ago, Yan Wuhen and Zi Min said their farewells to Yao`er, saying that they would go find the Emperor. Yao`er will follow them no matter what, but Yao`er doesn't know any martial arts, so she won't be able to help. Initially, he thought that the dust had settled, but no one had expected Duan Mu Yan to disappear without a reason. Right now, he could only pray for Duan Mu Yan, as such a girl would be blessed by the heavens.

Southern Yue, Mu King's Manor.

"Get out of the way!" She had already spent an entire day in this unfamiliar place, so she could not sit still and wait for death. No matter what, she had to leave.

"The prince has ordered that xiaojie can't leave this place. I hope xiaojie can return. Please don't make things difficult for us!" A man dressed in a guard uniform bowed respectfully as he stood in front of Duan Muyan.

"If you don't move away, don't blame me for being impolite!" When the guards saw this, they wanted to pull out their sabers, but to their surprise, Duan Muyan actually placed the pearl hairpin against their own jade-like necks.

"If you don't move away, I will die in front of you. I believe that your master does not want a dead person!" An icy coldness flashed in her eyes as Duan Mu Yan clutched the pearl hairpin tightly. The sharpness of the hairpin had already sunk into her jade-like neck. Seeing that the two of them were still hesitating, Duan Mu Yan gritted her teeth and tried to fight with them.

Pain gushed out from her neck. Dark red blood flowed down her neck like a beautiful flower. Duan Muyan was still tightly clutching her pearl hairpin as she stood in confrontation with her bodyguard.

"Still no, right?" Duan Moyan's gaze turned ice-cold as she pursed her cherry lips, walking step by step towards the guards.

"Miss, don't be rash! If we move aside, we will definitely die, so I hope that Miss will not do anything foolish again. " The guard seemed to be in a panic as he tried to persuade Ye Xiao, but he didn't step back at all.

She no longer wanted to owe Shen Hansheng any favours. Just as Duan Mu Yan was about to make her move, a deep blue figure suddenly flashed to the side, and with a bang, the pearl hairpin landed on the ground. Before Duan Mu Yan could react, he only heard two bangs from the side as the two guards in front of him had already taken a few steps back. Their faces were extremely red and swollen, and the seals on their fingers were exceptionally clear, as if they were about to bleed.

Duan Mu Yan sucked in a breath of cold air. Before he could open his mouth, he heard a familiar voice sounding out.

"Go to the dark room and claim your 50 military sticks!" A sinister voice drifted over their heads. The two guards didn't dare to hesitate and immediately turned around to leave. Duan Mu Yan understood what fifty military sticks meant, so she couldn't help but open her mouth to stop them.

"They didn't make a mistake. Why would they punish them?" Her cold voice sounded like she was interrogating him, and there was even a hint of unwillingness in it. I didn't harm Bo Ren, but because Bo Ren was already affected, Duan Moyan felt extremely apologetic from the bottom of her heart.

Shen Hanxin raised his eyebrows, his long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and his thin lips curved playfully.

"The beauties are pleading for mercy for the two of them? But just now, the beauty had almost forced them to their deaths. At that time, they had not seen any sympathy on the part of the beauty, she did not want to do anything to them. Since the beauties do not want them to live, This King will naturally become a United States citizen... " Shen Hanxin's words were only natural, but when his gaze landed on Duan Mu Yan's blood, his eyes turned ice-cold. It was hard to imagine, if he was a step too late, would this foolish girl really commit suicide?

"This is different. They are your subordinates and they are loyal to you. It's fine if you don't reward them, but you actually punished them for no reason!" It's simply unreasonable! " Duan Moyan reprimanded him ruthlessly, her gaze icy cold. From the beginning, she had never had a good impression of Shen Hanxin.

"All of you, come back!" Shen Hanxin looked straight at Duan Mu Yan, his thin lips curled up slightly. Hearing her voice, the two guards couldn't help but look at each other, but they didn't dare to be slow either, immediately returning back to Shen Han Xin's side.

"It won't be difficult if the beauties don't want them to be punished. As long as the beauties agree to let this king bandage the beauties' wounds, this king will spare them. Otherwise, each of you will receive a hundred military sticks!" Shen Hanxin's words were light and casual, as if human life was nothing but grass in his eyes. With a few words, the two bodyguards' faces turned ashen. A hundred military batons was more than enough to take their lives.

"You! "It's just a small wound, Meng Yan doesn't need to bind it!" She had never seen such an unreasonable person before, so she simply rejected him.

"So your name is Meng Yan." "Alright, you two go down. If you lose a bit, you can raise your heads and meet me again." Shen Hanxin's lips were still curled up in a strange yet intimidating smile. Hearing her words, the two guards turned to look at Duan Mu Yan, their eyes filled with humble begging. There was no one who wasn't afraid of death.

"Didn't you hear This King speak?" Seeing the two of them hesitating, Shen Hanxin's voice turned cold, and a cold light flashed across her eyes. The two of them were speechless and had no choice but to turn around and leave. Seeing the two of them leaving in despair, Duan Mu Yan suddenly spoke up.

"Just apply some medicine, I don't need anything else!" She was not a heartless person to begin with. Furthermore, the two of them had been found guilty because of her. Thus, she could not simply watch as they died. Shen Hanxin smiled, the corner of his mouth curving back up.

"You may leave …" "No need to take any offense." Seeing that Shen Hanxin had spoken, the two of them hurriedly disappeared in front of Shen Hanxin as if they had been granted amnesty.

"Yan'er, please enter …" That pair of smiling eyes seemed to contain a trace of ridicule, Duan Mu Yan simply ignored him and walked into the room. When Duan Mu Yan sat down, Shen Han Xin's body was about to land on Duan Mu Yan's.
