Right on the heels of that, something Jiang Xiaoran didn’t expect happened.

The second prince, Gu Zitang, also walked out slowly.

He looked down at Jiang Xiaoran and pulled him up from the ground. The two of them were considered friends in the past and liked to squander money.

Gu Zitang felt a little awkward to meet him here.

He smiled. “The people who captured you were my hidden guards. They were a little rough. Don’t be angry.”

As he spoke, the second prince even patted the dust off his clothes.

A cold voice sounded from the other side.

“I’ve already said that this kind of thing is very simple. You can just call Young Master Jiang to the palace to have a casual chat, but you guys have to use such a rough method to kidnap him.”

Under the dim light, Jiang Xiaoran could barely recognize it.

The one who was sitting in the corner and talking— It was the first prince, Gu Zixiao!

His eyes were calm and his sitting posture was straight like a pine tree.

The second prince quickly cleared his name. “This is all Fifth Brother’s idea. He said that if we want Young Master Jiang to be obedient, we have to do this.”

The fifth prince didn’t think much of it and raised his eyebrows teasingly. “I’m doing this for Young Master Jiang’s own good. Otherwise, if the other younger brothers find out the reason why we invited him into the palace, won’t Young Master Jiang suffer?”

The second prince echoed, “I’m already hiding this matter from Seventh and Eighth Brother.”

Jiang Xiaoran widened his eyes in disbelief and looked at the three princes in the room.

Each of them was a well-known member in their respective domain!

He was on the brink of tears. “Your Highnesses, we’ve never had any feud. Why did you bring me here?”

The second prince was familiar with him, so there was a hint of understanding in his tone.

He patted Jiang Xiaoran’s shoulder. “It’s all because you spoke nonsense to my sister. My father casually instructed us to tell you to be more careful in the future.”

Jiang Xiaoran was stunned. “Huh? What did I say...”

The second prince was about to answer when he suddenly frowned in confusion.

He turned to look at the first and fifth princes. “Father doesn’t seem to have said what Jiang Xiaoran said to Sister.”

The fifth prince snorted. “No matter what it is, Nuo’er is still young and doesn’t know much. You’ve been fooling around with women all day. Don’t lead her astray.”

Jiang Xiaoran wished he could cry out in grievance.

How could he have the chance to lead the little princess astray?!

Ye Siming watched over her more closely than anyone else!

The first prince stood up. “Alright, we’ve said what needs to be said. We should go back. Young Marquis Jiang, I really have no choice but to invite you like this today.. Please understand.” Jiang Xiaoran was untied.

Before he could say anything...

The first prince, Gu Zixiao, said with a dark gaze, “But Nuo’er is our only sister. If you bully her, we have more than 20 brothers and we’ll have no choice but to come for you then.”

Jiang Xiaoran was still at a loss.

“What exactly did I say? Why don’t I understand... n)-OvE1B1n

He thought about it carefully and recalled in confusion, “Could it be that he said a few bad things about Gu Xinghan to Her Highness?”

The first prince paused. “Gu Xinghan? The previous Prince Guang’s heir?”

“That’s right. Honestly, I’m not badmouthing him. That’s just a factual evaluation. Gu Xinghan is a promiscuous person and has an extremely bad character. I’ve only said a few words in front of the little princess.”

Jiang Xiaoran was surprised. “Could it be that he was trying to please the little princess and made her think that I was lying?!”

The first prince and his two younger brothers looked at each other.

How dare Gu Xinghan get close to their sister?

Based on his character?

The fifth prince clenched his fists and smiled. “I understand.”

The brothers knew who to look for now..
