I love you.
These words fell into the bottom of An Lingge's heart, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, or like a gentle breeze blowing against a willow tree, causing it to throb faintly.
She opened her palm, and a whistle appeared in Mu Junhan's eyes.
"I don't know if the emperor tormented the Hereditary Prince, but I was planning to return the whistle to you, and then suddenly change my mind."
An Lingge raised his eyes and looked at Mu Junhan, his eyes looking extremely clever and mischievous.
Mu Junhan was stunned for a moment at first, then the smile on his lips widened until it revealed eight neatly white teeth, shining with a dazzling light under his eyes.
He pulled Bi Zhu away, lowered his head to look at An Lingge, held her shoulders with both hands, and slowly pressed his lips against hers.
After a moment, he stood up, his dark eyes filled with nostalgia.
As intelligent and nimble as he was, he naturally had already noticed that An Lingge was determined to break the engagement with him.
But An Lingge saying such words meant that she liked him too, so she changed his mind. She didn't plan to cancel the engagement with her and instead wanted the marriage to be smooth sailing.
was naturally overjoyed that the person she liked also liked her, and couldn't help but kiss her on the lips.
The woman's soft lips carried a sweet smell that made Mu Junhan want to eat her marrow and savor her taste. He really wanted to marry the person in front of him right now into his house and have her become his.
His gaze swept across An Lingge's lips as he smiled at the corner of his eyes, "Since you've changed your mind, then you can take this whistle with ease. Leave the rest to me."
Regardless of what kind of thoughts the emperor had, whether he was testing the two palaces or giving them a marriage contract, he only cared about strengthening his own power so that the emperor would not dare to rashly touch him. Only then would he be able to protect An Lingge.
With a light smack, An Lingyi broke the flower stalk in her hand.
The jealousy in her heart grew like wild grasses, as if someone had set fire to her heart. The wild grasses immediately spread the flames, causing An Lingyi's eyes to turn red.
Why, why? An Lingge, that slut, was born into the Prince An's Palace, and everything came down to a head. It was so easy for the Princess An to die, but An Lingge was instigated into doing nothing, while I, who was proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, was bestowed a marriage by the Emperor, yet the Prince Mu’s Palace still chose An Lingge!
What was even more hateful was that this shameless bitch, An Lingge, had already promised to meet him before their marriage, and had even blatantly seduced him, causing him to look at her with such deep emotions.
That kind of gaze could only be hers, and Hereditary Prince Mu could only be hers!
An Lingyi clenched her teeth hard, the flower in her hand was squashed into pieces by her, then dropped to the ground and stomped twice, as though the flower was An Lingge, to vent the jealousy and hatred in her heart.
"What is Third Miss doing? It was one thing for the third young miss to pick such a beautiful flower, but why did she have to ravage her like this? Could it be that the unpleasantness of the flower has obstructed your eyesight? "
When he saw An Lingyi tearing and stepping on a flower, he couldn't help but exclaim as he walked over.
She did not truly pity this flower, but it was because An Lingyi was the daughter of the Madam Li that she had come to cause trouble.
An Lingyi retracted her gaze from the flower, looked at Madam Wang, her expression a little cold, "Second Aunt is not going to manage the warehouse, instead, I have the intention to stroll around the garden. If anything happens to the warehouse, Second Aunt will not be able to get away."
At this moment, she already knew that the thief who stole from the treasury had been captured by the Madam Li. When she heard what An Lingyi had said, she only thought that she was ridiculing herself for being useless, that she couldn't even catch a small thief.
She chuckled twice, "Before, something happened in the warehouse, but because I just returned there and was not familiar with the things here, that thief took advantage of this opportunity to steal property. Currently, the warehouse is very calm, and nothing happened."
"On the other hand, Aunt Li, ah, the Third Miss doesn't care about Aunt Li either. She is your mother after all, and after the Aunt Li received her punishment, the Third Miss actually had never once looked at her. I wonder if the Aunt Li is having fun as well."
This aunt was punished?
An Lingyi was shocked. She had caught a cold in the water yesterday, and after waking up, she had drunk some medicine and slept soundly for an entire day. She actually did not know about this.
"How could an aunt be punished? She's been in charge of the palace for so many years and has never made a mistake. Who would dare to punish an aunt?" An Lingyi glared at Madam Wang and arrogantly raised his chin, "Don't think that you can lie to me like that."
"Aiya, Third Young Miss, will Second Aunt use this matter to deceive you?" Now that she has to use this matter to provoke An Lingyi, she is full of interest, "I don't know, but a few Aunt Li s called the Second Young Miss to her courtyard yesterday, and I don't know what they said. The Second Young Miss went back to her own courtyard and found a piece of white silk to hang herself on, and almost ended up like this."
The young miss of the house, Jin Zunyu, was so precious that if something happened, others would be terrified for a long time, let alone An Lingxue, who was deeply loved by the old lady. Because the old lady almost killed herself when Madam Li said that, the old lady was naturally angry, and punished the Madam Li instead.
An Lingyi naturally understood this logic, she still did not dare believe it, but her face was already half believing and half doubting, "Aunt really received punishment?"
"Of course." Madam Wang nodded his head, and continued, "However, Third Miss does not need to worry too much. Li Mo Niang was merely punished by this old man to kneel in the Ancestral Hall, and she came out early today. Compared to Second Miss losing half her life, this punishment is truly very light."
An Lingyi naturally understood this logic, she still did not dare believe it, but her face was already half believing and half doubting, "Aunt really received punishment?"
"Of course." Madam Wang nodded his head, and continued, "But Third Miss does not need to worry too much. Aunt Li was merely punished by the Old Madam to kneel at the ancestral hall, and had to come out early this morning.
What kind of punishment was this? If An Lingxue wanted to court death, could she blame it on his concubine? It was obviously because the madame was biased and wanted to punish the concubine!
The more An Lingyi thought about it, the angrier she got. Her eyes were filled with anger, "Where's Aunt? I'm going to see her. "
Madam Wang stood in front of her, neither hurried nor slow, "Third young miss, why are you in such a hurry? Aunt Li brought the thief who stole from the mansion to the old mistress early in the morning, she should be fine."
How could An Lingyi listen to her words? She was used to being so pampered in the palace, and with the Madam Li and An Yingcheng's help, she could do whatever she wanted. Now that her Madam Wang was in front of her, she angrily pushed the main house open, "Get out of the way!"
But unexpectedly, her Madam Wang was pushed down to the ground, and blood started to seep out from the bottom of her body.
