After hearing this, Xie Wan Ning forced herself to cheer up a little and said, "You go ahead."
"I brought you here without hiding my whereabouts. With that sickly guy's ability, he should have found you by now."
Lu Ziyan tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers. While talking on this side, he couldn't help but hold her hand on the other side.
"I bet he will bring a lot of people with him..." Shunli took the boneless hand in his palm and squeezed it. He smiled and added, "Catching an adulterer."
These two words froze Xie Wan Ning's struggle, and she refuted without thinking, "Absolutely impossible!"
"Then do you want to bet?" Lu Ziyan said seriously, with a serious look on his face, "If he brings anyone other than the Sky Guards, you are not allowed to go back with him."
He had just regained his status as a legitimate prince today, and was also named King of Zhenbei. His popularity was at its peak, and he was only one step away from the position of crown prince.
Qi Mingyu's future father-in-law, Chen Ge Lao, was sent to prison again. Comparing the two, he didn't believe that the sickly man was not anxious.
After all, if he really took the throne as the crown prince, he would be able to ascend the throne legitimately...
Such an opportunity is so rare now. The sickly guy only needs to bring a few officials to take a look and witness with their own eyes that he has brought the people to the military camp.
Few ministers would support a prince who openly abducted the wives of ministers, bullied men and women, and had poor personal ethics.
Although Xie Wan Ning didn't know much about what was happening in the court, and didn't know that the person in front of her had restored his true identity and was named King of Zhenbei, she was not stupid. It only took her a few breaths to figure out all the twists and turns.
Once the news of Lu Ziyan abducting my wife gets out, such arrogant and domineering behavior will surely lead to piles of impeachment memorials being sent to the imperial desk. Even if Your Majesty is willing to retaliate, he will definitely be blamed.
After all, which family doesn’t have a wife and daughter?
And as another party involved, what good could she get?
Xie Wan Ning kept shaking her head, unwilling to believe that Pei Yuqing would do this.
He brought so many people with him, wasn't he afraid that she couldn't handle the criticism...
Aren’t you afraid that she will be angry?
As if he understood what she was thinking, Lu Ziyan sneered, "If he dares to bring people here, of course he can find a reason to make you not angry."
"Besides, if I really did something wrong to you, with that sickly guy's full of calculations, I'm afraid he could trick you into relying on him alone from now on."
After this incident, the Pei and Xie families will surely be caught up in rumors. Even if the Duke of Pei and the eldest princess continue to tolerate this daughter-in-law, they will not be in a good mood in the future.
In contrast, isn’t an old man who is still gentle and tolerant more worthy of reliance?
