"Your Majesty, Xie Gao, Xie Tianci, and Xie Rumei were all injured by Xie Jinglan. You have to stand up for them!" Beitang Hong pointed at Xie Jinglan and complained first.

"Oh?" The emperor's majestic gaze swept over the people kneeling on the ground and finally fell on Xie Jinglan.

"Prince Mu, Miss Xie just said that you wanted to forcibly cut her heart blood for Xie Ruyan, which led to the conflict. What's going on?"

"Your Majesty, I did not force her. She volunteered to take my heart blood." Beitang Hongdao.

"So the story of taking the heart's blood is true? What nonsense!" The emperor was half-believing and half-doubting just now, but when he heard this, he immediately became angry:

"As a prince of a country, you actually did something so foolish as to force someone to cut their blood just for a woman? What would the world think of you if they knew? You have greatly disappointed me."

"Xie Jinglan, what did you tell my father about me?" Beitang Hong was angry. He knew that this woman would say bad things about him in front of his father. It was so hateful.

"I only took a bowl of your blood, and you gave it voluntarily. But now you are spreading rumors in front of the emperor, saying bad things about me and Yan'er. You are truly vicious."

"It's just a bowl of blood? Prince Mu said that so lightly!

"Lan'er is the legitimate daughter of Duke Li. My son died fighting for our country, and his orphan has become your tool for drawing blood? And now you're turning the tables and accusing Lan'er of being vicious? Prince Mu is truly as majestic and overbearing as ever."

After Xie Wanying finished her sarcastic words, she knelt down before the emperor again, her face filled with grief and indignation.

"Your Majesty, the threshold of Prince Mu's Mansion is high. My family, Duke Li's Mansion, cannot afford it. I just want my granddaughter to live well. Please, Your Majesty, cancel their engagement. Her parents are no longer with us, and I can no longer bear to see my child die young..."

"Cancel the marriage? How can that be possible?" Empress Changsun said quickly:

"Thank you, Madam Madam. They will be getting married in half a month. All the arrangements have been made. I will have Hong'er go to the Duke of Li's mansion to propose marriage after His Majesty's birthday. How can you cancel the wedding now?"

She had originally looked down on Xie Jinglan, a fool, but this marriage was decided by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, so she had to agree even if she didn't like it.

But my son is obsessed with Xie Ruyan and insists on marrying her. How can this be possible?

However, a daughter born out of wedlock, not the true blood of the Xie family, how could she be worthy of her outstanding son.

Later, due to changes in the Xie family, Lin Yuansheng became the Duke of Li. Xie Ruyan was indeed better than Xie Jinglan, so she let her son do whatever he wanted.

But things are different now. Xie Wanying has recovered from her illness. With her strong personality, she will definitely take back the power to be the head of the family. Then Xie Ruyan will be nothing.

"What did you say? They are going to get married in half a month, but the betrothal gifts have not been sent yet? How do you manage to be the queen?" This was the first time that Emperor Kunming felt dissatisfied with the queen.

"Your Majesty, it's all my fault for being negligent. It won't be too late to go the next day." Empress Changsun's eyes flashed.

Xie Jinglan sneered in her heart, how could this be considered negligence?

In her previous life, she had asked for Concubine Ping for Lin Ruyan at the emperor's birthday banquet, and then Beitang Hongcai gave the betrothal gift to the Duke of Li's Mansion.

The betrothal gift given to her was issued by the Ministry of Rites in accordance with the royal regulations.

But in addition to the one given by the Ministry of Rites, Lin Ruyan also had another one given by Beitang Hong himself, which was more than half more than the one given by the Ministry of Rites, in order to humiliate her.

Beitang Hong also told her in front of her that Lin Ruyan was wronged as Concubine Ping, and these betrothal gifts were her compensation.

How ridiculous!

"I don't need a betrothal gift!"

"Your Majesty, are you going to let my granddaughter die just because of an engagement?" Xie Wanying kowtowed heavily. "I beg Your Majesty to consider Xie Feng's contributions and save his daughter's life."

"Thank you, old lady. Aren't your words too harsh? You make Prince Mu's mansion sound like a den of dragons and tigers." Empress Changsun forced a smile on her face.

"Isn't it?" Xie Jinglan looked at the mother and son with a cold look in her eyes.

"Prince Mu forced a servant to take blood for another woman, showing his complete disregard for the Duke of Li's Mansion.

In his own palace, Prince Mu dares to treat his daughter like this. If I really marry into Prince Mu's palace, I won't know when he will torture me to death. Isn't a place like this where you can lose your life at any time a den of dragons and tigers?"

In her previous life, she was killed by this couple.

Empress Changsun’s smile froze. How dare this loser talk to her like that?

But because the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were both here, he didn't dare to get angry.

Beitang Hong's face turned grim. "Xie Jinglan, you're just jealous of how good the prince is to Yan'er. Do you think that slandering the prince like this will prevent Yan'er from marrying into the palace? A man should have three wives and six concubines. A jealous woman like you is not worthy of being Prince Mu's Consort."

"Your Majesty, have you heard what King Mu is thinking now?

Prince Mu doesn't like me at all. So, I'm willing to withdraw and give my position as Prince Mu's Consort to the woman he loves. "Xie Jinglan still stood in front of A Yuan, not giving him the chance to kill.

"No, I don't agree." Empress Changsun spoke hastily. She would never allow a concubine's daughter with impure blood to become Prince Mu's wife.

She softened her tone and advised, "Jinglan, Hong'er was just confused for a moment, that's why he did such a thing. Please forgive him this time!

I promise that he will never dare to treat you like this again. The position of Princess Mu will only be yours. Even if he has more women in the future, no one can shake your position as the principal wife."

Xie Jinglan felt nauseous when she heard this and almost vomited the food she had eaten the night before.

Who wants a rotten cucumber?

"Mother..."

"Shut up." Empress Changsun glared at Beitang Hong and said to Xie Wanying, "Old Lady Xie, young people are full of passion. A quarrel between a young couple is harmless. As elders, we can't let them do whatever they want!"

Her son will sit in that position in the future and cannot lose the support of the Duke of Li's Mansion.

"Is it just a quarrel? He wants to kill people! If I hadn't awakened my spiritual roots last night and escaped the clutches of King Mu, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand here and seek justice for myself." Xie Jinglan said coldly.

If she wants to fight against these people, she can no longer hide her strength. They think she is easy to bully and everyone wants to step on her.

"Sister, are you telling the truth?" Xie Yunqing held her hand, very surprised.

That’s great. Let’s see who dares to call his sister a waste again in the future?

"Yes, I will protect you from now on. Don't let those evil spirits bully us again." Xie Jinglan touched his head.

When some people are happy, others are sad, such as Lin Yuansheng's family.

Xie Ruyan secretly hated this bitch in her previous life. She had not awakened her spiritual roots at all, and they had drained all her value out of her before she died.

Why is this life so different? What went wrong?

Moreover, he injured his father and younger brother as soon as he woke up. What will happen if this little bitch is allowed to grow up?

Beitang Hong felt disdainful in his heart, but it would be easy for someone who had just awakened her spiritual roots to crush her to death.

"Father, what I did today was a little inappropriate, but I never intended to kill Xie Jinglan. It's just a bowl of blood, how could someone die?

We approached her to collect her blood, and we did so with kind words. Who knew she'd attack Xie Tianci over a disagreement? After we left, she attacked Xie Gao and killed eight guards. It's clear she's a ruthless person. Please, Father, help them."

If it weren't for Xie Ruyan's heart disease, he would not be willing to marry such a vicious woman.

When Yan'er recovers, there's no need for her to exist anymore. Princess Mu! She can only belong to Yan'er.

"Shut up!" Emperor Kunming felt that his son was becoming increasingly unreasonable. Didn't he know that cutting a person's blood was dangerous? What went into his mouth was just a bowl of blood.

No wonder the Xie family wants to cancel the engagement.

His gaze fell on Xie Ruyan, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

"Are you Xie Ruyan?"
