Lu Zhaolin paused, his brow twitching slightly: "Afraid? Afraid of what?"
“Lu Zhaolin, if…if I said I had committed a heinous crime punishable by death, you…” Princess Chang’an said timidly, “…would you forgive me?”
"Me?" Lu Zhaolin sneered, "Do you need me to forgive you? What am I anyway?"
"You...you shouldn't say that, it hurts my heart to hear it," Princess Chang'an murmured.
Mu Qianqian: ? ? ?
She glared angrily at her leg.
I only regret that I am still a little baby who can't even walk.
Otherwise, she really wanted to slap this Chang'an princess who only knew how to play the victim, and slap Lu Zhaolin across the face to wake him up.
Don't you have any idea what kind of person you are?
If she hadn't transmigrated into this book...
He's long dead!
Ah-ying-wei!
I'm so angry! I'm so angry!
Uncle, what are you arguing about with her?
This kind of woman should be sent to the deepest level of hell!
You're not acting like a love-struck fool again, are you?
They're going to be fooled by her sweet talk again, aren't they?
As Lu Zhaolin listened to Mu Qianqian's thoughts, his brow twitched involuntarily.
A rustling sound came from behind.
Lu Zhaolin cleared his throat imperceptibly, and when he spoke again, his voice had lost its previous coldness and gained a touch of warmth: "What did you do wrong?"
“I…” Princess Chang’an paused.
"Since you don't want to talk about it, fine. I still need to take the Seventh Princess back to Qiluan Garden." After Lu Zhaolin finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Wait a minute." Princess Chang'an quickly caught up: "It was...it was my carelessness today that caused some things to get into the food at the banquet, which disrupted the Seventh Princess's 100-day celebration."
"Things?" Lu Zhaofeng seemed to grasp the key point: "What things? Arsenic or poison?"
Princess Chang'an was stunned. Her already pale complexion turned even paler: "You...you knew everything?"
"I'm just curious? Who exactly are you trying to kill at tonight's banquet? It's made you so ruthless." Lu Zhaolin said sullenly.
"You know? Actually, the person who called you out that night at the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was the current Empress Dowager. It was she who implicated you in order to get revenge on my mother and on me. I only found out about this a few days ago?" Princess Chang'an's eyes were red.
"So what?" Lu Zhaolin's lips were pressed into a straight line, as if he was suppressing something.
"So back then, I really didn't mean to refuse to save you. I truly didn't know about it." Princess Chang'an said, taking a step towards Lu Zhaofeng with some emotion. "So please believe me, I really didn't mean to harm you."
"Ha!" Lu Zhaofeng chuckled dryly, as if he had heard something amusing. "So you're just denying everything we've ever shared?"
“I…” Princess Chang’an lowered her eyes: “I was just scared at the time.”
"Afraid?" Lu Zhaofeng sneered, "Then aren't you afraid I'll die?"
Princess Chang'an's eyes widened in surprise, her gaze snapping open to their widest extent: "I..."
"Alright, I don't want to bring up those past things anymore." Lu Zhaolin let out a long sigh: "Princess, what brings you here today? Please speak frankly."
“Lu…” Princess Chang’an’s expression flickered: “Lu Zhaofeng, please take me away from the palace. If the Emperor finds out about this, he will definitely kill me. For the sake of our past relationship, please help me this one last time, I beg you!”
