Chapter 324 The Mad Prince Falls in Love with Me?
Meng Yanzhi found this amusing and said calmly, "When I was in the Meng family, I was treated worse than a dog. If I hadn't entered the palace, the Meng family would have sold me and I don't know where I would have ended up or how I would have been abused!"
"Your Majesty thinks I like freedom and want to live a vibrant life outside, but Your Majesty doesn't know that Your Majesty is my savior. If it weren't for Your Majesty taking me in, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive now, let alone living freely!" Meng Yanzhi spoke the truth.
She thought of the humiliations she had suffered in the past, and her hands clenched into fists.
Xiao Xingyuan knew that Meng Yanzhi had not been happy in the Meng family before, but he never expected that it would be so humiliating and unhappy.
He took a deep breath and looked at Meng Yanzhi with a face full of heartache: "Yanzhi, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said those things."
"We should say that we are a couple, husband and wife, and we should have made things clear between us."
"Your Majesty, you are the only one in my heart. It is my own choice to stay with you in the palace. So please don't say such things again. Just remember, without you, there would be no Meng Yanzhi today."
Meng Yanzhi stepped forward, took Xiao Xingyuan's hand, gently placed it on her chest, and smiled softly at him.
After hearing these words, Xiao Xingyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her in his arms: "I've been worried the whole way here and I always feel sorry for you, Yanzhi, my dear Yanzhi. I will definitely treat you better and better from now on!"
Seeing Xiao Xingyuan's pitiful appearance, Meng Yanzhi felt a pang of heartache, and with a slight smile, she kissed him.
The two quickly became passionate, but Xiao Xingyuan restrained himself at the last moment, gently touching her lower abdomen: "Not yet."
Meng Yanzhi, her face flushed, nudged Xiao Xingyuan and then whispered, "Then why did you provoke me?"
"Okay, okay, it was my fault. I won't bother you anymore, okay?" Xiao Xingyuan immediately admitted his mistake and readily agreed.
Seeing him like this, Meng Yanzhi snorted, leaned against him, and fell into a deep sleep.
The Eastern Palace.
"What did you say!" Zang Shui stood up abruptly, staring at Zang Ban in disbelief: "The Da Gan side said we're going to start a war?"
Zangban was speechless at Zangshui's agitated state: "Brother, can you calm down a little? Look at yourself now, you don't look like a prince at all. Why are you so agitated over such a small thing? What are you trying to do!"
Zangshui doesn't care about all that now, not about being respectable or not!
"When did we say we wanted to go to war?"
"Wasn't this big operation against them just a ploy to seek peace?"
"How did it become a case of us provoking them?"
Zang Shui spun around on the ground, his face full of disbelief.
Sure enough, something was off about this.
"Now that we've come this far, shouldn't we lay it all out?"
"besides……"
Zangban looked at Zangshui, took a deep breath, and smiled foolishly.
"Brother, I have someone I like."
Um?
Zang Shui's heart was in turmoil, but after hearing this, she became even more interested. She hurried over and looked at Zang Ban with a face full of curiosity: "You have someone you like? Who is it?"
"It's Meng Yanzhi."
"who!"
Zang Shui's heart, which had just settled down, was raised again.
He stared at Zangban with a look of shock and disbelief, picked at his ear, and asked again, "Who did you say?"
"It's just like what you heard, I fell in love with Meng Yanzhi."
"Brother, I want to marry her!"
At this point, Zang Shui could no longer remain calm, and without the slightest hesitation, he slapped Zang Ban hard across the face.
"Are you crazy? She's the Empress of Daqian, she's already had a child, and she's pregnant with another one! You're insane!"
"Let me tell you, you'd better give up on this idea quickly, otherwise... you'll definitely die a horrible death!"
Zang Shui's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and she gripped his neck, staring at him intently.
Zangban completely disregarded his brother's anger and simply said, "I never expected you to help me with this. You just need to keep it a secret for me!"
Should we keep it a secret?
Who are you hiding this from?
Zang Shui's eyebrows furrowed tightly as she looked at Zang Ban: "You two can't..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? She's not that kind of person!"
"Brother, I have never felt this way before. I have never felt this way towards a woman. I love her so much. I only want her. I will marry no one but her!"
Zang Ban looked at Zang Shuilang with a silly grin.
If Zang Ban had taken a liking to someone else, Zang Shui would be overjoyed. But unfortunately, Zang Ban has taken a liking to Meng Yanzhi, the last person he should have!
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he looked at Zangban with a hint of helplessness: "I'll say it again, there's absolutely no possibility between the two of you. Don't think about this again!"
Nothing in this world is impossible.
“They don’t want war, so this is an opportunity. We’ll propose a marriage alliance. Isn’t harmony between the two countries more important than a woman?”
"Besides, what's there to be afraid of if she's given birth? It proves she's in good health!"
Zang Ban spoke with such confidence and conviction.
"Get out! Arranged marriages have happened before, but who can marry the other side's queen!"
"She is the Empress, His Majesty's beloved wife! Who do you think you are? To even mention her is an insult, and it's bound to start a fight!"
Zang Shui's mind finally came back to normal. He rolled his eyes at Zang Ban, turned around, and strode outside.
Soon, Cangshui arrived at Meng Yanzhi's palace gate. He hesitated for a moment, then knocked on the door after much deliberation.
When Qingdao saw Cangshui come to his door, he frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "It's already very late. Your Highness, what is it? Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Only then did Zang Shui realize that it was already late at night, and he knew he would never see Meng Yanzhi.
"Tell Your Majesty that I will come to see her first thing tomorrow morning!"
After saying that, Zangshui turned and walked outside.
The next day, early morning.
Xiao Xingyuan was summoned away by the Canglan King as soon as he woke up in the morning, which gave Cang Shui the opportunity to meet Meng Yanzhi alone.
The two sat facing each other. Meng Yanzhi looked at Cang Shui with curiosity, not saying a word, wondering what this person wanted to see her about so early in the morning.
Cang Shui took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "Um, how... how did you and Fourteen meet?"
