After the marriage, the abstinent prince turned me on

Liu Qiang screamed, covering his body, his facial muscles twisted in pain, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ge didn't care about throwing a tantrum anymore. She stumbled over to Liu Qiang and supported him with a distressed look, and started cursing like a machine gun:

"Oh my god! Who the hell are you to touch my son!" She said, staring at Li Zhong fiercely with her cloudy eyes.

Li Zhong remained unmoved by Mrs. Ge's curses. He stood straight and spoke in a cold and dignified tone, "I am the personal bodyguard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, responsible for maintaining the safety of the Crown Prince's residence. This man dared to bully the maids in the Crown Prince's residence. I have the right to deal with him. Come, send this scoundrel who tried to molest the maids to the government office and let the Jingzhao Yin interrogate him!"

Upon hearing this, the guards behind Li Zhong immediately stepped forward, picked up Liu Qiang and tried to drag him out without saying a word.

Liu Qiang grimaced in pain, unable to resist, and could only be manipulated like a lamb to be slaughtered.

"It's unfair!" Upon seeing this, Mrs. Ge rushed forward and tried to stop the guard, but was pushed aside by the guard without mercy and almost fell flat on her face.

"This...this is all a misunderstanding! My lord! Qinghe...she is my son's fiancée! How can it be considered bullying if the young couple just plays around and does a few things?" Seeing that her tough stance was not working, Mrs. Ge had to soften her tone and try to excuse her son.

When Qing He heard what Mrs. Ge said, she was immediately embarrassed and annoyed. She quickly retorted, "Aunt! What nonsense are you talking about? When did he and I ever get engaged?"

"Of course you don't know!" Mrs. Ge said angrily when Qinghe ruined her plan. "Back when your mother was still alive, she personally betrothed you to our Qiang'er!"

Liu Piezi, who had been standing silently aside, nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, yes! It's all a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! Qinghe, just consider that our two families are relatives and let them release Liu Qiang!" As he spoke, he carefully observed Li Zhong's expression, fearing that he would accidentally anger this evil star.

Li Zhong remained unmoved by the words of Mrs. Ge and Liu Piezi. He said coldly, "Ms. Qinghe is the Crown Princess's personal maid, and her marriage is naturally decided by the Crown Princess. As for whether what you said is true, it will be up to the Jingzhao Yin to make the final decision. Take her away!"

At Li Zhong's command, the guards ignored the pleas of Mrs. Ge and Liu Piezi, and dragged Liu Qiang out of the yard without looking back.

Mrs. Ge watched her son being taken away, anxious as an ant on a hot pan. She turned around abruptly, grabbed Qinghe's hand, and said tearfully, "Qinghe! My dear niece! Are you just going to watch your cousin being taken away? After all, we are blood relatives! You can't be so heartless!"

"By the way, please ask the Crown Princess to return your indenture to you! That way, you'll be free, and no one will dare to bully you anymore! You won't have to worry about others' feelings anymore, and you can marry your cousin openly!"

"Yes, Qinghe, you have been with the Crown Princess for so long, she should let you go free. You can't follow her for the rest of your life." Liu Piezi echoed from the side.

"Aunt, uncle, you are indeed my blood relatives, but as long as I don't recognize you, you are nothing. I can't marry Liu Qiang, and I can't ask my master to return my indenture contract." Qing He said in a firm tone without any hesitation.

Seeing Qing He was unmoved by her persuasion, Mrs. Ge flew into a rage. She pointed at Qing He's nose and cursed, "If you don't marry my Liu Qiang, who else can you marry? Do you really want to be the prince's concubine? With your sullen appearance, the prince will definitely dislike you. You'd better just come with us!"

Mrs. Ge's words were so vulgar that Qing He was so angry that her face turned pale and her body trembled slightly.

Li Zhong frowned upon seeing this, and took a step forward, protecting Qing He behind him. He looked at Mrs. Ge coldly and said, "Qing He and I are in love, and I'm planning to marry her. Besides your son, there's someone else who wants Qing He."

Li Zhong's voice was not loud, but it was resounding and full of unquestionable majesty.

Mrs. Ge was stunned at first, obviously not expecting such a sudden appearance. Then a look of shock appeared on her face.

Originally, he thought that Qinghe had no one to help her except the Crown Princess, and he could let her marry his son for the sake of his aunt's face, so that his son would not be unable to find a wife in his current state.

But now, Qing He actually already has a man, and this man is a guard beside the prince. In the future, won't he be a guard in front of the emperor? Qing He will be the wife of the guard in front of the emperor, and she is Qing He's aunt. This seems to be a good reputation...

Mrs. Ge's thoughts turned in a thousand circles, and her expression was unpredictable. In the end, greed overcame reason. She put on a flattering smile and said quickly, "Oh, so you two were together. Look how I misunderstood you. Qinghe, why didn't you tell me earlier? But your cousin's kick just now seems to be quite serious. Auntie, please help find a doctor. We will never be like this again."

Qing He was a little stunned when she saw Mrs. Ge's expression suddenly change. However, she was sincere and concerned about the relationship between aunt and niece, so she said, "Don't worry, Liu Qiang is my cousin after all. I will find a doctor to see him. But in order to let him learn his lesson, he still needs to be locked up for a few days, otherwise he will suffer a lot if he gets into trouble in the future."

Mrs. Ge quickly put on a smile and said yes, yes, yes, Qinghe was right. Speaking of which, "What on earth is the matter that the Crown Princess invited us back for? The Crown Princess hasn't summoned me for such a long time." Her eyes rolled around, and she was thinking about how to get more benefits from the Crown Princess.

Qing He said, "The Queen has been busy these days and will summon you soon."

After saying that, Qinghe left with Li Zhong and others. Mrs. Ge watched them leave, with a vicious glint in her eyes, "I said it was a misunderstanding. How could Qinghe be so ignorant that she wanted to lock up Qiang'er for a few more days? How can he endure these days? I don't know how he is doing now." Mrs. Ge was anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

On the other side, Xie Mishuang heard about this matter after returning from Shuangnu Hall. After pondering for a moment, she ordered the maid beside her: "Go, call Li Zhong and Qinghe."

After a while, Li Zhong and Qing He came to Xie Mishuang and saluted respectfully.

"Get up." Xie Mishuang said calmly, "Qinghe, I already know about you and Li Zhong. You are both people close to me, so I naturally hope that you will be well. How about this, in a few days, I will make the decision and arrange your marriage."
