Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

"What on earth do you mean, Princess?"

Seeing that she kept testing him, Mu Ziyang's eyes flashed with impatience.

"My meaning is very clear. You have no choice but to make a choice in the current political situation. It is impossible to stay out of it."

Meng Xiyue said coldly, "As you are now, in everyone's eyes, you are the eldest prince's man."

"I will not do anything for the eldest prince. What others think is none of my business."

"Mr. Zhuangyuan is very courageous. I admire him very much."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Meng Xiyue's eyes flashed with some admiration, and then she said sarcastically.

"But if you are so noble, why did you marry the eldest princess?"

"This is my private matter and has nothing to do with you." Mu Ziyang replied coldly.

"Princess Yong'an, if you have nothing else to do, I will leave first."

Seeing that he was about to get up and leave, Meng Xiyue hurriedly spoke.

"Mu Ziyang, I heard that you once had a fiancée."

"So what? This is not a secret and I have never concealed it."

Mu Ziyang thought that she wanted to use this matter to blackmail him.

"You love your fiancée very much."

She said an affirmative sentence, not a question.

Mu Ziyang was slightly stunned, then smiled bitterly, "Princess Yong'an, do you also think that I am greedy and vain, and that I abandoned my fiancée in order to curry favor with the eldest princess? I am an ungrateful and complete villain."

"I have thought so, but now I know that you must have your reasons. I want to know why."

If he was really a heartless and ungrateful person, he would not say such words.

He just felt that it was human nature to climb to higher places, and there was nothing wrong with him choosing the easier path.

But now he obviously doesn't think so.

Mu Ziyang did not answer her. Instead, he grabbed the wine beside him, took a few gulps, and then laughed out loud.

"This is only the first time I've met the princess, and you have your reasons for trusting me so much."

His voice couldn't stop trembling, as if he had been suppressing his emotions for too long.

He raised his eyes to look at Meng Xiyue, "Are you the prince's man?"

"Yes."

Meng Xiyue answered firmly, "I will live and die with the prince."

"Since Princess Yong'an is so frank, I will also speak frankly. The reason I came to see the princess is to show my goodwill to the prince."

"I want to join the prince."

"You have a promising future now. If the eldest prince ascends the throne, you will be able to get everything you want. Why do you want to take a difficult path? Besides, your identity is awkward, and the prince may not believe you."

Mu Ziyang is a smart man. He knows that if he doesn't tell the truth, Meng Xiyue will not believe him.

He clenched his fists, his eyes revealing a bit of ferocity, "As the princess said, I love my fiancée, not the eldest princess Nan Rongwan. She used her status to force me to abandon my beloved. I only hate her."

Hearing her words, Meng Xiyue lowered her eyes and glanced at the screen behind him.

Then he asked, "What did the princess force you to do?"

"The lives of my mentor and my fiancée."

At this point, the hatred in his eyes became even stronger, "She sent people to arrest their family, and if they don't obey her, she will hurt them."

"Nan Rongwan told you all this?" Meng Xiyue frowned. Outsiders knew one version of the story, Mu Ziyang knew another, and the facts were completely different.

"Yes, I sent someone back to Weicheng to inquire. All the Xiang family members are missing, and the princess has Xiang Ling's hairpin in her hand."

"Then you have never thought that Nan Rongwan would wipe out the roots. You know, she is not a kind person."

Meng Xiyue said coldly, Mu Ziyang looked smart, how could he be deceived so easily.

"She promised me that she would release Xiang's family after we got married."

There was a hint of panic in Mu Ziyang's eyes. "Did she lie to me?"

"The people you sent to Weicheng were probably bribed by Nan Rongwan a long time ago. She didn't even arrest them, but directly set fire to Xiang Family Academy."

"What, where is my master, and Xiang Ling?" Mu Ziyang stood up suddenly and shook his head in disbelief.

"No, you lied to me. On the second day after our wedding, I received a handwritten letter from Xiang Ling. She said that Nan Rong Wan had released her, but we couldn't meet again."

It was because of this letter that Mu Ziyang trusted Nan Rongwan so much.

"That letter is a fake. I never wrote it."

Xiang Ling, who was hiding behind the screen, couldn't bear it any longer, she came out and roared loudly.

Unexpectedly, Nan Rongwan was so scheming. She killed their entire family, forged letters, and deceived Mu Ziyang.

Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, Mu Ziyang was slightly stunned, but at just one glance, he recognized that this was his lover.

"Xiang Ling."

He ran over and hugged the person fiercely, "Is it you? Is it really you?"

He reached out to untie her veil, but Xiang Ling grabbed it suddenly, "Don't look, my face is hurt."

"You're injured. What happened? Is what Princess Yong'an just said true? Did Nan Rongwan not arrest you and your master, but set fire to Xiang Family Academy?"

Mu Ziyang held her in his arms with heartache. He didn't dare to think about what she had been going through these days.

"Yes, not long after you became the top scholar in high school, Xiang Family Academy was burned down. Both of your parents died in the fire. I was the only one who survived, but my body was completely destroyed."

As if she had finally found support, Xiang Ling burst into tears.

"I lived in disgrace and came to the capital, but I heard the news that you were the prince consort. I wanted to die on the day of your wedding, but Princess Yong'an saved me."

"Silly girl, why don't you come to see me?" Mu Ziyang stroked her with trembling hands.

This is the woman he has cared for since she was a child. He loves her, protects her, and is afraid that she will suffer any injustice.

But because of herself, she lost both her parents, became homeless, and suffered severe damage both physically and mentally.

Thinking of this, he became annoyed and angry.

"Nan Rongwan, she lied to me, I want to kill her."

Originally, he married her to protect the lives of Xiang's family, but he didn't expect her to be so cruel. When she knew that he also had a fiancée, she sent people to get rid of her.

"Ling'er, wait for me. I must repay Master and give you justice."

Having said that, he was about to get up and leave.

"Brother Mu."

"Mu Ziyang, what's the difference between going like this and committing suicide?" Meng Xiyue stepped forward to stop him.

"Even if we both perish, I will kill her."

"Brother Mu, I'll go with you."

Xiang Ling echoed.

Hearing this, Meng Xiyue sighed. No wonder the two of them were a couple. They even had the same idea of ​​how to deal with things.

Just thinking of exchanging life for life.

"Mu Ziyang, you have known Nan Rongwan for quite some time. Do you think you can kill her if you go like this?"

Mu Ziyang lowered his eyes and answered resolutely, "The revenge for killing my master must be avenged."
