Chapter 48 Unbridled
After spending these days together, Queen Mother Jiang actually still likes Yang Manyan very much. Not only is she good-looking, but she is also well-behaved and obedient. But who made her the future mother of the country?
Well, at worst she could take the initiative to persuade the emperor in the future to change Yang's name and give her a higher position, which would be fair to her.
Just at this moment, a palace servant came in hurriedly to report that the Crown Prince had arrived.
Queen Mother Jiang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly sat up in shock, "Why is the prince here? Quickly lead him over here!"
She got up too quickly, and her eyes were full of stars. She lay down again, "Bring him to me!"
The palace servants were trembling with fear, "But, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already broken into the East Palace..."
There was a moment of absolute silence in the hall, and Queen Mother Jiang was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time.
Although she wanted to ease the relationship with the emperor, she never intended to break with the prince. She also planned to choose a girl from the Jiang family to be the new princess...
Before this, Queen Mother Jiang felt that the Jiang family had been in decline over the years, and her nieces and granddaughters did not really meet the standards for the crown prince's consort, so she tried to win over the Xu family, which was at its peak.
But now even a girl from a small family like Yang can enter the Eastern Palace. Which girl in the Jiang family is not much better than her?
"Your Majesty, would you like to go and persuade the Prince?" Fuling asked tentatively.
Queen Mother Jiang's face turned pale. "If I go there now, doesn't it mean that I knew about it? Remember, it was Yang Shangyi who seduced the emperor in the Cining Palace. I have nothing to do with it!"
Fuling looked embarrassed. If she said that, Yang Shangyi's life might be in danger.
Cining Palace, east hall.
Thanks to the emperor's careful cultivation over the past decade, Xiao Yan's hearing and vision were extremely sharp. As soon as he stepped into the Cining Gate, he heard the ambiguous sounds coming from the east side of the hall.
Ignoring the desperate attempts of the palace maids and eunuchs to stop him, he walked to the slightly open large carved window at the other end of the side hall.
The scene that caught Xiao Yan's eyes made his heart tremble violently.
He tried his best to endure the soreness that was rising to the tip of his nose, and his feet seemed to have taken root, standing still in the same place without moving.
My heart seemed to be shattered into pieces in an instant.
How could my father humiliate his beloved so repeatedly!
Sensing someone on the other side of the window, the emperor tilted his head to look, a cold light like a knife flashing across his eyes.
At this time, Yang Manyan's mind was blank. She had no idea that her husband was standing by the window witnessing all this.
She looked as if she had just been pulled out of the water, her hair disheveled and tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.
The two men saw this and felt a slight pain in their hearts.
After a moment, Yang Manyan's body went limp and he fainted.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan rushed in through the side door without hesitation.
Without waiting for the emperor to calm down, he forcefully snatched the unconscious Yang Manyan from his father's arms.
The emperor's arms suddenly felt empty, his brows furrowed, anger and lust intertwined in the corners of his eyes, and his pupils were like sharp blades.
Xiao Yan wrapped the naked Yang Manyan in a cloak and held her horizontally in his arms.
He glared at his father with red eyes, his breath still filled with extreme anger as he panted, "Father, are you forcing me to become your enemy?"
Our dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, and the Cining Palace was the residence of successive empress dowagers. Naturally, it was extremely luxurious and magnificent, yet dignified and solemn.
But in such a solemn palace, at this moment it is filled with all kinds of charming atmosphere, which is extremely strong.
Picking up the robe scattered on the ground, the emperor put it on slowly but did not straighten the collar, exposing his muscular chest muscles soaked with sweat.
The veins on Xiao Yan's forehead bulged, and the anger in his eyes could not be concealed.
My heart was like a mountain torrent bursting out, with all kinds of emotions coming one after another, anger, humiliation, and pity for Yang Manyan...
The girl who was held horizontally in his arms was still trembling slightly after fainting, which showed how much she had just endured.
The air pressure in the hall grew heavier and heavier, with a looming gloom before a violent storm.
"You are so unscrupulous. How are you different from our former emperor?" Xiao Yan's face turned ashen and he spoke harshly, completely different from his usual gentle and elegant demeanor.
