The evil woman is arrogant and the cold emperor can't sleep at night

"Does your majesty agree?"

"Why didn't I receive the imperial edict to break off the engagement? Before the edict was issued, Your Highness hooked up with my sister, so openly and aboveboard, how can I save my dignity?"

She covered her mouth and looked at the two of them in surprise, her suspicious eyes gazing back and forth at them, clearly suspecting that they were having an affair behind her back.

"This prince and Wan'er know each other very well, you don't have to look at us like that!"

Mu Jun was so angry at her provocative look that he jumped to his feet, but he couldn't lose his composure in front of so many people, so he could only explain with gritted teeth.

"Of course I believe it, but on the day my sister fell into the water, her dress seemed..."

Shen Tangan only said half of his words, which aroused people's imagination.

The two of them were hugging and kissing in front of her fiancée, and the prince was extremely protective of Shen Qingwan. Who would believe that there was any innocence between them?

They themselves have no shame, so why should she force them to stay?

"Sister, Your Highness is kind and merciful. He saw me fall into the water and stepped forward to rescue me. It is not what you imagined."

Conjecture?

A smile appeared in Shen Tangan's eyes, meaning that he had wronged her?

"Sister, what you mean is that sister deliberately fell into the water to seduce His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, because you know that the Crown Prince is kind and will definitely rescue you?"

"Sister, that's not what I meant, don't interpret it inaccurately!"

Shen Qingwan suddenly looked up at her, and this time she was really panicked.

I never thought that she had been deliberately seducing me, and I fell into her trap with just a few words.

She hurriedly turned around and grabbed the prince's hand, crying pitifully and shaking her head at him.

"Your Highness, you saw it with your own eyes that day. I was seduced by my sister... I fell into the water accidentally. It had nothing to do with my sister, but I didn't seduce Your Highness on purpose."

She was very smart. She deliberately distanced herself from the falling into the water and had nothing to do with Shen Tangan at this time, as if she was being coerced and bribed, as if he was extremely afraid of her.

In fact, it was a step back to advance. The fall into the water happened many days ago, and no one knew the truth except the two parties involved.

The prince is the only one here who believes in her unconditionally. As long as the prince stands on her side, no matter what Shen Tangan says, it will be useless.

"Wan'er, of course I believe you. I saw what happened that day with my own eyes. It was clearly her who pushed you down!"

The prince grabbed her hand, protected her behind him, and did not question her words.

After all, this matter is a family affair of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. Others do not know about it and dare not make any arbitrary conclusions. They can only stand aside and watch the show.

The prince was obviously determined to protect Shen Qingwan. Shen Tangan was unable to produce any extra evidence and was temporarily at a disadvantage. The scene was very tense for a while.

"Shen Tangan, Wan'er is generous and won't make a fuss with you, but you bullied her first, so you should apologize to her! Today you made Wan'er kneel in public, now kneel down and apologize to her, and the matter will be over."

Mu Jun pointed at her with an arrogant tone.

Shen Qingwan stood behind him timidly, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes when she heard this.

If she could make Shen Tangan kneel down to her in public, who among these people would dare to look down on her in the future? She is the prince's person!

"Brother Crown Prince, this cannot be allowed. After all, she is your future Crown Princess."

Mingyue suddenly stepped forward to stop him at this time. Although she and Shen Tangan did not get along well, she could also distinguish right from wrong.

As an outsider, she could see clearly that Shen Qingwan was clearly taking advantage of the Crown Prince and deliberately letting him embarrass Shen Tangan in front of so many people.

Shen Tangan is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family and has the support of the Shangshu Mansion. She will be a great help to the Crown Prince in the future. Even if he wants to cancel the engagement, he should not humiliate her like this.

Once the Shangshu Mansion is angered, I am afraid that the road ahead will be more difficult than it is now.

No matter how useless Shen Tangan is, she is still the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion and has the full right to stand here.

What is Shen Qingwan?

A concubine's daughter who was raised by a concubine, the mere fact that she stole the visiting card was enough to show that she was very scheming and not as innocent as she seemed.

"Mingyue, what happened here has nothing to do with you. Shen Tangan must kneel down and admit his fault to Wan'er today no matter what!"

The prince had been patient with her for a long time, and all the pent-up anger he had towards his father over the cancellation of the engagement was vented at this moment.

How could he let go of such a good opportunity to bully Shen Tangan?

If she hadn't interfered and made her father order him to marry no one else but her, he and Wan'er would have been together long ago.

"Your Highness, are you sure you want to make me kneel in front of so many people for Shen Qingwan without knowing the truth?"

Compared to Mingyue's anxiety, Shen Tangan was calm and composed, with a faint smile on his lips, as if he didn't take them seriously.

It seemed that she was always so indifferent, keeping herself out of everything, as if the person the prince was humiliating now was not her.

"Your Highness, please don't embarrass my sister. I have not been wronged. She is my elder sister. How can she kneel down to me?"

Faced with her neither humble nor arrogant questioning, Shen Qingwan felt a little guilty, but this was her only chance to hold her head high in front of everyone.

Shen Tang'an bowed to her, so no one else dared to look down on her. So she said these words just to anger the prince. After all, she knew the prince best.

Ever since the Crown Prince and Shen Tang'an got engaged, she had been planning how to seduce the Crown Prince and had been interacting with him in private.

She had gone to such lengths to snatch the prince away, wasn't it just for this moment?

"Shen Tangan, you owe Wan'er this!"

Sure enough, after hearing her words, the prince felt even more distressed and spoke more harshly to Shen Tangan.

"Your Highness, please don't regret it."

Shen Tangan lowered his eyes, a hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.

She was humiliated in public by the prince today, and it was all because of Shen Qingwan. Does the royal family still have the face to force this marriage?

As long as she is done and goes to the palace to cry, the prince will inevitably scold her, and even Shen Qingwan will pay the price for it.

Do you really think you can rest easy just by being with the prince?

Don’t forget, I am above the prince!

Will the emperor let go of the evil woman who seduced the prince?

"Brother Crown Prince, aren't you afraid of being blamed by our father?"

Mingyue became anxious and tried to stop him, but the prince refused to listen.

"Mingyue, you don't understand this matter, and you don't know how vicious her heart is. Wan'er has suffered a lot of injustice in the Marquis' Mansion. Letting her kneel down and apologize today is already forgiving her."

"Do you really want to kneel to her? Where is your courage to stand up to this princess?"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade the prince, she could only turn to persuade Shen Tangan.

Shen Tangan smiled at her. Although he knew that she was doing it for the prince, he was still a little touched that she was willing to speak for her at this time.

But today, the Crown Prince has supreme power, and as a subject she has no choice but to obey.

She straightened her clothes and was about to kneel down when a big hand suddenly held her arm and supported her gently.

Before Shen Tangan turned around, everyone around him, including Mingyue, prostrated themselves on the ground.

When the prince saw the person coming, he was so frightened that he just stood there in a daze. It took him a while to react and he quickly bowed.

"I've met the emperor's uncle!"

As soon as these words were spoken, others followed suit.

"Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Chen!"

Shen Tangan then turned around and saw the person coming. He was not surprised and smiled at him with his eyes curved, which was indescribably bright and flamboyant.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Helped her again.
