"Meng Yan?" Looking at her frozen hands in midair, Shen Hansheng's heart jolted and disbelief shone in her eyes.

"Since Miss Meng Yan is unwilling to leave with King Han, it would be best if you don't force yourself. After all, in the Mu King Manor, Miss Meng Yan will also receive the best care and accommodation." Shen Hanxin did not miss the opportunity to step up to the side.

"If Fourth Brother doesn't mind, why don't you eat with me and Lady Meng Yan?" Shen Hanxin seemed to ask with good intentions.

"Meng Yan, are you sure you won't go back with me? This king assures you, in the entire Southern Yue, there is no place that is safe for you other than the Residence of Duke Han! This King will not harm you, never! " Shen Hansheng suppressed the pain in his heart and asked softly.

"Meng Yan doesn't believe anyone right now. Duke Han, please go back. Meng Yan has decided to stay at the Mu King Manor for the time being. As for the future, Meng Yan will have to see if she can think of anything." Faced with these strange faces before her, she needed to carefully consider who was speaking the truth and who was lying. She also needed to differentiate between them. Before that, she did not wish to break the silence.

"Meng Yan!" Seeing that Shen Hansheng wanted to snatch his away, Shen Han Xin took a stride forward to stop him, but Shen Han had already made up his mind. Even if Duan Mu Yan hated him temporarily, he wouldn't let Duan Mu Yan stay in danger for now. The two of them fought each other for three moves, and Shen Han was gradually struggling as he moved to the side. Seeing this, Leng Bing Xin and Ye Li also rushed up without any hesitation, and just as Shen Han was about to call over Feng and Yin Rong, Xia Hou Ying, who had not spoken for a long time, flung her hand and charged towards Leng Feng.

In the time it took for half a cup of tea to burn, Shen Hanxin was unable to take care of a single person.

"Puff …" A mouthful of blood spurted out from Shen Han Xin's mouth, followed by Shen Han Xin taking a few steps back, his fingers gently wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. Shen Han Sheng's palm was not light, and he could feel the displacement of his internal organs, a burning sensation coming from his chest. Seeing Shen Hansheng charge towards his once again, Duan Mu Yan dashed in front of Shen Hanxin.

"Enough! Staying at the Mu King Manor is Meng Yan's decision. If Duke Han is not satisfied, you can go after Meng Yan and not make things difficult for the Mu King! " Duan Mu Yan's voice was cold and serene, her clear eyes brimming with the calmness and wisdom that day in the throne room of the Badlands Temple. That gaze was too resolute, so firm that it caused Shen Han Sheng's heart to turn cold.

"Meng Yan …" She had nothing to say in response to that. Shen Hansheng truly had no idea how to tell Duan Mu Yan of his sincerity. If persuasion was insufficient, forcing it wasn't possible, what should he do!?

"Since Duke Han has no intention of eating with Mu Wang and Meng Yan, let's do it then." After which, she turned around and helped Shen Hanxin up.

"Sorry, Mu Wang was implicated because of Meng Yan." Seeing Duan Mu Yan supporting Shen Han Xin as they walked slowly out of the main hall, not even sparing him a glance as they circled around him, Shen Han Sheng felt as if someone had ruthlessly gouged him in the chest with a heavy hammer. At this moment, Leng Bingxin and Ye Li had also retreated to the back of Shen Hansheng, looking at their master worriedly.

"What a beautiful scene. This princess thought that Meng Yan and Duke Han were in love, but who would've thought that with just a little injury, she had already forgotten about Duke Han!" Retribution! What retribution! Shen Hansheng, now you also have a taste of being abandoned by your loved one? "Does this taste good?" She had never thought that Shen Hansheng would give up everything just for Meng Yan. This reality gave birth to a thought in Xia Hou Yuying's heart, and that was that Duan Mu Yan was still unable to forget about her, so she must die! Even if she couldn't obtain Shen Hansheng, she wouldn't have let that slut off so easily!

"It was Imperial Concubine Hua who did it to Meng Yan? What exactly did you do? " Shen Hansheng's eyes turned cold. The light that shot out of his ice-cone-like eyes was enough to make Xia Hou Yuying not dare to take another step forward.

"Since Duke Han has evidence, you can go to the emperor and consult this princess. If not, then please be careful with your words. Not everyone is willing to take the blame!" "Let's go!" Xia Hou Yuying subconsciously choked before leaving the manor with her guards.

"Your Highness, it looks like Lady Meng Yan is temporarily safe in the Mu King's manor. It would be better if we return to the manor first before making any plans." Ye Li carefully spoke. Speechless, Shen Hansheng clenched his hands into fists. The chill in his eyes grew increasingly dark and profound, and the glow within them was an icy chill that Ye Li could not understand. Perhaps because he was too indecisive, he was able to let Duan Mu Yan be injured time and time again. Thus, this time, he decided not to wait for this so-called opportunity. If he was the Emperor of the Southern Yue, Duan Mu Yan definitely wouldn't suffer so much.

As they looked at each other, they suddenly had a feeling that a storm was brewing. Perhaps in the near future, the entire Southern Yue would cause a bloody storm to erupt because of Duan Mu Yan.

Inside the room, Shen Hanxin's face was pale, and his lips were still stained with blood. When he sat down, he took out a pill from the box and placed it in his mouth, then lifted his eyes and smiled.

"If it wasn't for Lady Meng Yan, I am afraid that I would have been beaten to death by my irritable Fourth Brother!" Shen Han Xin opened his mouth resentfully, his handsome face showed no signs of being wounded, despite the fact that his chest was still burning like a fire.

"If it wasn't for the Mu King's deliberate actions, I believe that Duke Han wouldn't have hurt his highness that badly." She had been there the entire time. Although she had not learnt any martial arts, she had clearly seen the flash of light in Shen Han Xin's eyes. Shen Hanxin was shocked by his words, and the curve of her lips became even more pronounced.

"Lady Meng Yan is truly wise. Since I can see that it was done intentionally, I wonder if Lady Meng Yan can guess the reason?" Shen Hanxin looked at the girl in front of her with interest. Somehow, the liking and care in her heart had deepened. Recalling Shen Hansheng's words in the main hall, Shen Hanxin suddenly had an epiphany. He might be an exception.

"Meng Yan doesn't want to continue trying to figure out your thoughts. If your highness is fine, then Meng Yan will take her leave." The light in Duan Mu Yan's eyes dimmed as she turned around, but Shen Han Xin abruptly grabbed her by the wrist.

"Your Highness!" Shen Hanxin let go of his lily-white hands and smiled apologetically.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Ben Wang still hasn't had his meal yet. You helped me back. Now that I've taken the medicine, shouldn't I be troubling Miss Meng Yan to help me back into the main hall?" Shen Hanxin spoke with a wronged expression, as if the one who had done wrong was Duan Mu Yan. Speechless, Duan Muyan only felt that the man before her was a scoundrel. However, what he said wasn't unreasonable, so she could only bend over and take Shen Hanxin's arm before slowly walking out of the room.

As the wind blew, a fresh and elegant fragrance wafted from Duan Mu Yan's hair. Shen Han Xin was completely captivated by this smell and was almost intoxicated by it. It was only when Duan Mu Yan helped her to a seat in the main hall did he regain his senses.

That night, when Shen Hanxin appeared in the palace looking satisfied, Liu Yu'er was anxiously pacing around the inner chamber.

"Why is the Empress in such a panic?" Shen Hanxin's voice was faint, her eyes brimming with a smile. Her charming eyes were always radiating with a light that could drive women crazy.

The night that Meng Yan was transferred, she threatened me. If you don't hand over Meng Yan, then she will report us to the Emperor! "What should we do?" Liu Yu'er looked at Shen Hanxin in panic, her eyes full of hope.

"A day has already passed. Has royal father come to the Empress to punish him?" He already knew that he could hide the matter between him and Liu Yu'er from Xia Hou Yu, but he was certain that Xia Hou Yu would not easily report this matter to his royal father. She was waiting for the right time, so she could give him and Liu Yu'er a serious injury that they could never recover from, but how could he give Xia Hou Yu this opportunity?

"That's not true... However, in the end, I'm still afraid that she'll expose this matter. Prince, why don't you think of a way to kill Xia Hou Yu! Otherwise, Yu'er would not even be able to sleep soundly! " Liu Yu'er gripped her handkerchief tightly and her eyes were full of fear.

"Does the Empress sleep in peace really sleep in peace because of Xia Houyu? "Esteemed wangfei, don't worry. With this prince here, why are you worrying for nothing …" As Shen Hanxin spoke, his fingers moved along Liu Yu's snowy neck and slowly slid into her collar. Liu Yu'er had almost forgotten everything, and was happily sticking on Shen Han Xin's body.

"Prince …" Liu Yu'er's cherry red lips opened slightly, and her mouth drooped slightly as she looked at the man in front of her with her blurry eyes, each time she felt happy or happy, it made her love Shen Hanxin even more. At this moment, that love had already been carved into her heart, and even if she was unable to recover from it, she was still willing to do so.

"So the reason the Empress couldn't sleep wasn't because of Xia Houyu …" Shen Hanxin's fingers touched her silky pleats, causing Liu Yu-er to feel a tingling sensation all over her body, and her body fell powerlessly into Shen Hanxin's arms.

"Your Highness, Yu'er begs you. Never leave her behind and don't care about her …" Liu Yu'er let out a strange moan, and Shen Hanxin couldn't help feeling a little shocked. However, when he saw Liu Yu'er's intoxicated expression, he slightly pursed his lips. With the movement, Liu Yu'er could no longer control herself, and suddenly turned to Shen Hanxin, her hands grabbing hold of Shen Hanxin's neck, her cherry lips taking the initiative to cover her lips, a kiss filled with boundless tenderness and love.

At this point, the cover on Liu Yu'er's body had already been removed by Shen Hanxin. He could not let Liu Yu'er go, he could not let a woman's kindness spoil his plans.

An unprecedented feeling flooded Liu Yu'er's entire body. This was the first time she felt Shen Hanxin's warm and gentle care. It was the first time she felt this man's love and love. Her heart was overflowing with happiness, and Liu Yu'er's body and mind were both satisfied.

"Does the Empress like it?" Shen Han Xin slightly raised her handsome face, her long and narrow eyes flashed with a trace of iciness.

"Call me Yu'er …" Shen Han Xin's thin lips curled up as she continued to incite the craziest desire from Liu Yu'er's body. She was not in a hurry to satisfy the woman below her, Shen Han Xin immediately grabbed onto her earlobes, unable to stop herself from panting, her heart was missing a bit.

"Han Xin..." "Come quickly …" Liu Yu'er couldn't wait to grab what she wanted, but Shen Han Xin avoided it subtly.

"Yu'er, why are you in such a hurry? I will make you taste all the gentleness for one last time!" Shen Hanxin's thin lips left Liu Yu's earlobes, and he slowly kissed her. This time, he didn't have the thirst of his body, he only wanted to give the woman beside him a feeling of never being able to understand. Liu Yu'er was gasping for breath. At this moment, her mind was blank. She could only say that she was willing to die just like that. In the end, Liu Yu'er's body trembled violently. That feeling made her forget everything.

Watching Liu Yu'er slowly stop moving, Hen Hanxin couldn't help but sigh. She walked to the side of the bed and gently placed his jade-like fingers on his chin, showing his eyes that were filled with love.
