C446 446 The Emperor's Words

At this time, the mask cloth had not been removed, but the sullen light that flowed out of its clear and cold eyes was enough to show how angry he was right now.

Rong Qi took off the mask cloth s on his face. His handsome face was covered densely in dark clouds, and his eyes shone with a terrifying fire as he glared at the woman in front of him.

He raised his hand, wishing that he could slap the woman's face, but in the end, his raised hand stopped mid-air.

"Do you know that you almost died today!"

Thinking about it, Rong Qi still felt afraid.

When he rushed over, he just so happened to see the arrow from the Imperial Guard shooting towards her heart. If it wasn't for Crown Princess Jing attacking at such a fast speed, she would have been dead by now.

Xiao Yue reached out to take off the black cloth on her face, avoiding Rong Qi's furious gaze. Her expression dropped for a moment, and she said: "Of course I know, but I cannot let General Chu ignore it."

"Ha!"

Rong Qi laughed coldly, "I didn't know that people from your Beitang Clan view your subjects' lives so highly!"

Naturally, Xiao Yue could hear the ridicule in Rong Qi's tone!

Her elegant and beautiful face froze for a moment before saying: "This is a matter for our Beitang Clan, there is no need for Young Marquis to worry!"

The things that the Beitang Family had done before made her unable to refute the ridicule in Rong Qi's tone.

She did not comment on what her mother and sister had done. She only knew that as the daughter of the Beitang family, she should go through fire and water for them.

Although she could not agree with what her mother and sister had done, she could still do whatever she wanted to the General Chu.

The General Chu came with her to the Easternum. How could she let him sacrifice himself like this?

"Thank you for saving me today, young prince. Goodbye."

With that, she turned and walked back.

"Do you still want to go back?"

Rong Qi's cold voice came from behind her, "Yan Yuan and Yan Jue both sent out secret guards to capture you. If you go back now, you're just walking into a trap."

Xiao Yue's footsteps paused, and she turned her head towards Rong Qi in shock, "How did they know it was me?"

She had been masked, and the commander of the Imperial Guard had not recognized her.

The only one who recognized her was Liu Ruo Qing, but if she told Yan Yuan about this matter, wouldn't that mean that she was involved with it herself?

She was currently Liu Ruo Qing's servant. Even if Yan Yuan trusted her, it didn't mean that others would.

Be it in public or private, Liu Ruo Qing should never be revealed by her.

Rong Qi saw through Xiao Yue's thoughts, walked in front of her and said: "When Crown Princess Jing came to your rescue, she was seen by the commander of the Imperial Guard. Do you think Tong Shao will go look for Yan Yuan? Would the Crown Princess Jing help you hide it from others and help you shoulder this burden? "

Xiao Yue did not say anything, she obviously knew that the Lady Liu would not help her take on such a crime.

That day, when she had saved her from the Imperial Palace, she had clearly told her that it was the first time she had helped her, and also the last time.

This time's matter had been seen by the Imperial Guard Commander. Even if Lady Liu wanted to help her hide it, she wouldn't be able to.

She could only choose to tell Yan Yuan.

Furthermore, she had seen Yan Yuan's heart for the Lady Liu, and even if it was to protect the Lady Liu, Yan Yuan would not let her off so easily.

The two brothers had sent their mansion's secret guards to find her. They must have wanted to get rid of her before the Imperial Guards found her, in order to solve the crisis in Lady Liu.

The two guards of the two Duke Palaces had made their moves at the same time. It wouldn't be difficult for them to find her.

Seeing Xiao Yue not saying a word, Rong Qi walked in front of her and said with a stern expression: "Isn't the reason you barged into the Easternum's imperial palace not because you want to obtain the《 Sky Array》 to deal with our family?"

Rong Qi immediately cut to the chase, "With your Beitang Clan's capabilities, even if the [Sky Diagram Array] was handed to you guys, would you really have the ability to deal with our Rong Family?"

Xiao Yue's face suddenly changed, her expression ashen as she looked at Rong Qi's arrogant and unparalleled appearance, her face turning black and white, white and black.

"Rong Qi, don't go too far."

Xiao Yue stared at Rong Qi's arrogant look, and his face became more and more ugly.

"I advise you to rest for now. Otherwise, I will personally come to the palace to see the Kaiser. I want them to see what the Beitang Family has in mind."

He took a step forward and saw that Xiao Yue was looking at him with eyes full of hatred. His heart tensed up, but she still continued: "If the people from Easternum knew that you guys were going to steal the《 Heaven Diagram》, do you think they would truly believe that you guys are doing this just to attack our family and not with any other motive?"

"You …"

Xiao Yue was so angry that her entire body was trembling, staring at Rong Qi's appearance, she gritted her teeth.

Just as Yan Yuan and Liu Ruo Qing returned from Prince Lu's Mansion, and just as they reached the entrance, they saw the butler standing at the entrance, looking in anxiously.

Seeing that they had returned, he quickened his steps to welcome them. "My prince, the Eunuch Wang has come. He said that he is here to pass down the imperial edict."

Yan Yuan's footsteps paused, and his expression did not look too good.

"Got it."

Yan Yuan responded as he walked forward. Liu Ruo Qing followed behind him and saw that he had reached out to pull her hand into his palm. The invisible force made Liu Ruo Qing stop in her steps, and she looked towards Yan Yuan.

Seeing him walk in without saying a word with an expressionless face, Liu Ruo Qing couldn't help but feel a little more apprehensive in his heart.

"Why did the Emperor send the Eunuch Wang here to pass down the orders?"

Liu Ruo Qing said in a low voice, with a bit of apprehension.

She knew that the Eunuch Wang was a messenger eunuch by the Kaiser's side. If it wasn't something extremely important, the Kaiser wouldn't have needed to send a messenger eunuch to pass down the message.

Yan Yuan sensed the uneasiness in her heart, holding her hand, he emphasized: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

Yan Yuan's promise, was always able to calm his down. Even if it was just a few simple words, they were more than a thousand words to her.

She nodded and followed Yan Yuan into the hall.

When the two entered, Eunuch Wang was currently drinking tea. When he saw them enter, he immediately went up and greeted them: "This servant pays his respects to Your Highness, Princess Consort."

"Did the Eunuch Wang come because of your majesty's orders?"

Yan Yuan looked at Eunuch Wang and asked calmly.

The Eunuch Wang walked forward and cupped his hands towards Yan Yuan, saying, "This servant has come to pass an order to His Majesty, Duke Xuan and the wangfei to see you in the palace."

"You still want to summon Princess Consort Xuan to the palace?"

Yan Yuan's eyes grew darker. "Does Your Eunuch know the reason why Your Majesty has proclaimed this king and Princess Wangfei to enter the palace?"

Seeing the Eunuch Wang chuckle, he folded his hands in his sleeves, looking a little sloppy.

After all, he was the servant of Kaiser, so he was clear about what should and should not be revealed.
