After the tragic death of the daughter of the emperor, she returned to her former marriage and refus

Xu Jinghuai's handsome face was so gloomy at this moment that it seemed as if ice could form. He stared at Yan Yunshu closely.

Yan Yunshu, however, looked calm and acted as if she had heard nothing.

"Yan Yunshu?! Don't you even have any dignity left now?!" He frowned.

Yan Yunshu frowned slightly, then laughed and said loudly, "Your Highness, did you hear a group of dogs barking just now?"

The laughter of the crowd stopped.

They looked in the direction of Yan Yunshu and Xu Jinghuai in confusion. Why did this voice and this statement sound so familiar?

Xu Jinghuai quickly understood what Yan Yunshu meant.

He glanced at everyone and said, "I heard it. It was really loud!"

Everyone was puzzled. "Why didn't I hear anything?" "I didn't hear anything either!" "Why is the dog barking?"

"Yan Yunshu, look, we can hear the dogs barking again." Xu Jinghuai showed a hint of cold sarcasm and murderous intent at the corner of his mouth.

Everyone was shocked.

What? This angel-like woman before me is actually Yan! Yun! Shu!

Everyone present gasped. She was actually Yan Yunshu? Without her usual greasy, exaggerated makeup, she was so beautiful? So, were they scolding Yan Yunshu in front of her just now?

But no matter how pretty she was, this stupid, evil, vicious woman actually dared to call them dogs again in front of the eldest prince!!!

The Second Prince had been out of touch with worldly affairs for a long time and didn't have a good grasp of people. He must have been bewitched by Yan Yunshu, otherwise why would he even agree with her?!

They were filled with indignation, and they shouted at Yan Yunshu, "Well, Yan Yunshu, how dare you call us dogs in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!!"

At the same time, he did not forget to pull His Royal Highness the Second Prince to their side.

"Second Prince! Don't be bewitched by this enchantress. She may appear innocent now, but in reality she is vicious and capable of all kinds of evil. We are justified in scolding her, and it's not without reason!"

"Yes! Your Highness the Second Prince, you will understand! If only one person scolds her, then there's something wrong with her. But if everyone scolds her, then there's really something wrong with her!!"

Xu Jinghuai slowly stood up, a hint of sarcasm on his face, "Oh, what a coincidence! I also have a bad reputation!"

"His Highness the Second Prince is so wise and powerful, how could that be!" "That's right! His Highness the Second Prince is both virtuous and talented, and has an outstanding demeanor. He is a role model for our great Tianze Kingdom." "My father always praises His Highness the First and Second Princes!"

"Yan Yunshu, these dogs' barking has disturbed my ears. Tell me, should I kill them?"

The coldness in his words made everyone tremble. Unexpectedly, he put one hand on the hilt of the sword he carried with him and stroked it carefully. Then he swept a cold gaze at everyone, like a sharp blade, scraping across everyone's face, and a silent pain came towards everyone.

It is said that one cannot blame the masses for their mistakes. With so many people gossiping, even the emperor would not dare to do anything to them collectively. But it is hard to say about the second prince. Legend has it that in the Battle of Wangyue, Xu Jinghuai killed everyone without distinguishing between friend and foe.

At the last moment when he was exhausted, he even sacrificed the lives of his closest subordinates in exchange for his own survival!

There was a vast sea of blood and a mountain of corpses, and piles of silver fox skins. There was Xu Jinghuai, who was so bloodthirsty that he even killed his own people.

The scenes that went viral in the storyteller's book penetrated into everyone's heart and eyes.

As time went by, Xu Jinghuai stayed out of the world for so long that they almost forgot what a cold-blooded, cruel and unconventional madman Xu Jinghuai was!

Several young men and women trembled all over, their knees instantly weakened, and they knelt on the ground one after another.

"Your Highness, I deserve to die. I deserve to die. I shouldn't have said so much and disturbed His Highness the Second Prince!" "Your Highness deserves to die. I knew Your Highness didn't like noise, but I still said so much in front of Your Highness."

"Well, they deserve to die!" Xu Jinghuai glanced at the door, and the guards waiting outside quickly drew their swords and surrounded the eight young men and women.

Amidst the cries of begging for mercy, Xu Jinghuai looked at Yan Yunshu, "What do you think?"

Yan Yunshu picked up a cup of tea, raised her head high, and glanced slightly sideways, her eyes full of contempt and disdain.

"Your Highness, I have a vicious heart and only want them dead. However, dying here would be disgraceful to my eyes. I suggest that Your Highness send them to the Ministry of Justice. Our Tianze Kingdom values etiquette and morality the most, yet these children and family members of important officials of the court are full of foul language and publicly humiliate others. Is it because their fathers also behave in this way that they are so unscrupulous and lawless, imitating their fathers?"

"No, no, Your Highness, please listen to our explanation..."

"Take him away." Xu Jinghuai said coldly.

The eight young men and women were instantly filled with despair. They vented their fear and anger towards Yan Yunshu, "Yan Yunshu, you vicious woman, you will not live well!" "How can you be so vicious! Just wait for me!!"

Just as the guards were about to drag them out, He Lianzhi, the daughter of the Minister of the Central Secretariat, suddenly burst into tears. She kowtowed towards Xu Jingye and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, save us!!!"

The other young men and women seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and began to beg Xu Jingye.

Xu Jingye, whose face was originally ashen, now turned red and white.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly stood up.

He came to Xu Jinghuai and pretended to be calm.

"Why are you doing this, my brother? They're just venting their anger and haven't caused any real harm to anyone. Besides, they're not scolding you. Just give them a lesson. There's no need to make such a fuss and bring them to the Ministry of Justice."

"I don't have your elder brother's compassionate heart, which is dedicated to saving all living beings. I have always been sinister and vicious."

After saying that, Xu Jinghuai continued to order the guards to take the people away.

Amidst the howling of ghosts and wolves, the eight people were finally taken away.

Xu Jinghuai continued to sit down and enjoy the scenery with Yan Yunshu. Xu Jingye had long lost the mood to enjoy the scenery and chat. He was full of anger at Xu Jinghuai's ruthlessness and pulled Xu Jinghuai aside.

"Xu Jinghuai, don't go too far! They are all from aristocratic families, and their fathers are important officials in the court. They haven't offended the royal family. It's just gossip and bickering among family members. As a prince, why do you have to be so unreasonable just for Yan Yunshu!!!"

"What does my decision have to do with you?"

Xu Jingye frowned, his fingers shaking with anger. "Listen to me, bring them back quickly, and I'll pretend nothing happened."

She is just Yan Yunshu, just a dog of his. How can she compare with those children of aristocratic families and the fathers of those young masters and ladies? Each of them is a target he wants to win over. Now that they are asking him for help, he will rescue them no matter what.

"My royal brother, please don't forget. Yan Yunshu is the marriage partner that our father arranged for me. She is the future princess of Prince Huai's mansion." Xu Jinghuai narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Jingye with a very dangerous look.

Xu Jingye's face became even gloomier. "Yan Yunshu will never marry you. She only has me in her heart and will only marry me!"

"That's ridiculous! From what I know, it seems that Father gave the choice to Yan Yunshu. But the person she chose wasn't my brother!"

"Brother, you've lost your composure. This is the first time you've lost your composure like that for a woman! What a pity! She was just being petty when she refused me the marriage proposal. I've already told you that sooner or later, she'll regret it and beg me to marry her on her knees!"

Xu Jinghuai was cold all over. He would never forget Yan Yunshu's hesitation about this question that day in Caiyunfang.

She said that if that day ever came, she would let herself kill her with her own hands! She did not deny that such a day would come!

He didn't understand why she was being inconsistent.

He had hated her.

But Yan Yunshu, do you know that even if this is the case, I would rather kill myself than take your life!

His eyes were red as he stared into Xu Jingye's eyes, the situation deadlocked.

Suddenly, a white figure with a pale and stunning face, accompanied by a unique jasmine fragrance, ran towards the door of Tianxiang Tower from beside the two of them.

Xu Jinghuai: "Yan Yunshu!"
