Chapter 856: Mermaid: Protected

Lian Yuan was fine for the time being. He and Shen Hanqing stood together, leisurely preparing to watch the show.

Lian Shuang felt that this was a very bad thing, but she still had to face it.

Not knowing if lying was hereditary, Lian Shuang remained calm and said, "Your Majesty the Queen has misunderstood. Lingyue meant no disrespect."

"I brought Lingyue back from a small village. She hasn't seen the world."

"Today is also my first time entering the palace. I guess I am dazzled by the things in the palace."

"What's more, Your Majesty, you are a goddess. Lingyue was probably so stunned by your beauty that she forgot to pay her respects."

Shen Hanqing thought that these two brothers were really okay, one was said to be a fool, and the other was said to have never seen the world.

Lian Shuang's words made the queen smile with joy.

She coughed lightly and tried to maintain her composure, saying, "Since Prince Jing has said so, I'm not a petty person. I won't pursue the matter this time. If there's a next time, I won't be so easy to talk to."

The Emperor suddenly spoke up, "One is the future Princess Jing, and the other is the future Princess Crown Princess. Although I'm not the type to forcefully separate couples, if they continue to be so ignorant of etiquette, they might even bring shame to the royal family!"

"Why not send Lingyue and Shen Hanqing to the palace and let the Queen teach them some etiquette for a while."

The emperor actually just wanted to control his two sons through Lingyue and Shen Hanqing.

When the queen heard this, she thought it was a good idea. She originally wanted to give the two of them people to control them.

Who knew that one after another, they would find people on their own.

If we can use this teaching as an excuse to stuff people in, it will be feasible.

After all, whether it was Lingyue from this small village or that fool Chen Hanqing, neither of them was a good candidate for the main wife.

Then the Queen also spoke up, "That's fine. Today, I was magnanimous and forgiving. If I offend a noble in the future and they are not as forgiving and forgiving as me, what will I do?"

Lian Yuan looked embarrassed. "It's not that I'm unwilling, but Hanqing will be quieter with me by her side. If I'm not around, she might become a little noisy."

"The Queen must have seen it today. What will happen if someone of hers is hurt because of this?"

Lian Shuang naturally didn't want to agree to these religious rules.

Teaching rules is fake, making things difficult is real.

What's more, Lingyue really doesn't know anything, and her identity is a bit special. If she is not careful, her identity may be exposed.

So Lian Shuang also said: "Ling Yue really does not know any etiquette. If she enters the palace, I'm afraid she will cause displeasure to the ladies."

"After returning, I will have someone teach him more and ensure that what happened today will not happen again."

The emperor's expression suddenly darkened, and he shouted sternly, "It seems I've been too lenient with you lately! It's allowed you to be so bold!"

"There is no room for negotiation on this matter. Lingyue and Shen Hanqing will enter the palace immediately and be taught the rules by the Queen!"

Lian Yuan frowned slightly, and his eyes became a little colder. This old man was really annoying.

We originally kept him alive just to conceal our tracks, but now we should consider burying him.

Lian Yuan smiled and said, "Father, please forgive me for not being able to obey your command."

The emperor said in a deep voice, "Prince, are you planning to disobey my order?"

Lian Yuan said directly: "Yes."

The emperor looked disappointed and said, "As the crown prince, how can you be trapped by the personal feelings of your children? How can I be assured of handing over the country to you in the future?"

"Crown Prince Lian Yuan is unable to shoulder this heavy responsibility. His position as Crown Prince must be abolished!"

Lian Shuang suddenly looked at the emperor. This happened rather suddenly.

Lian Yuan lowered his eyebrows slightly, hiding the murderous intent in his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Shen Hanqing stepped forward and stood in front of him.

She spoke lightly, saying only two words: "Enter the palace."

Lian Yuan looked at Shen Hanqing's back. He didn't expect Shen Hanqing to do this.

After all, Shen Hanqing disliked him from the very beginning.

Tsk, why do I feel so sad?

In short, Lian Yuan was feeling complicated at this moment.

After all, no one has ever wanted to protect him, and most people want him dead.

In fact, Shen Hanqing didn't have to do this, he could have killed this old thing.

But now he thinks this is not bad.

So Lian Yuan nestled behind Shen Hanqing with peace of mind and didn't say a word.

Lian Shuang looked at Lian Yuan's complacent look and felt that her royal brother was truly shameless.

And a woman to protect.

Well, Lian Shuang had to admit that he was a little jealous.

Look at that silly girl Lingyue, she can’t even protect herself.

Lian Shuang didn't dislike Ling Yue. Instead, she felt that she was not strong enough to protect her.

Lian Yuan was still able to confront his father, but he had too many things to consider and couldn't even do this.

Now that Shen Hanqing agrees to enter the palace, Lingyue must also enter the palace.

Lian Shuang said, "Father, I wonder if you could allow Lingyue to enter the palace tomorrow. Please let me give her some instructions."

When the emperor heard the two of them retreat, his expression softened considerably, "Alright."

Then he said with a kind father's face: "I will not pursue it too much this time. If the Crown Prince does this again, I will not just talk about abolishing the Crown Prince's position."

"I've heard rumors of mermaids in both Jincheng and Yancheng. It's a good opportunity for you two to go investigate."

"This is also a good opportunity for you two to reflect on yourselves and not be obsessed with personal relationships."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Lian Yuan's eyes. What he said sounded nice, but he just wanted to live forever.

Lian Shuang felt more helpless.

That's how it's settled.

After Lian Yuan and the others left, the emperor had no expression on his face.

His queen was not very smart.

He doesn't like people who are too smart.

He naturally knew the queen's little thoughts, but he didn't mind her troubles.

After all, she can still be used as a gun when necessary.

Especially to Lian Yuan and Lian Shuang.

He always felt that these two people were a threat, and that they might try to seize power and usurp the throne one day, so they had to be suppressed.

This throne belongs to him and can only be his. No one can take it away.

He will eventually find the mermaid, and then become immortal and emperor forever.

The emperor's eyes were full of ambition.

On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Lian Yuan asked Shen Hanqing with a smile, "Why did Miss Shen help me? Could it be that she has a crush on me?"

Shen Hanqing lifted her eyelids, “Your Highness, one should not be too shameless.”

Lian Yuan said with a disappointed expression: "Isn't it? Then why did Miss Shen do this?"

Shen Hanqing said with disdain: "I can't bear to see you do stupid things." If she didn't stop him, Lian Yuan would probably have to kill the emperor.

Lian Yuan stared at Shen Hanqing with a somewhat resentful look in his eyes, “And you still said it wasn’t to help me.”

The corners of Shen Hanqing’s mouth twitched slightly, and she didn’t want to pay attention to him.

Lian Yuan suddenly held Shen Hanqing’s hand and looked at her affectionately, “I will never let Miss Shen down for her kindness.”
