After saying this, Xiao Tang nimbly jumped down from the carriage and took Yan Jiu's place, reaching out to help the man.
"Your Highness, let me help you."
At this moment, all the officials who had come to court turned their heads to look over.
Pairs of eyes, some curious and some gossipy, were all fixed on Xiao Tang.
This regent's wife is truly a remarkable person!
Those who didn't know better would think the regent was a good-for-nothing, needing his own queen to help him get out of the carriage.
Di Jingling stared at the outstretched small hands, the slender fingers like green onions, and he still couldn't understand how such delicate hands could exert such great strength...
The man's cold, murderous gaze swept over the assembled officials, a dangerous and intimidating sight.
All the officials shuddered and knelt down to pay their respects.
"Greetings, Regent."
As soon as Xiao Tang turned his head, he saw a large group of court officials kneeling down.
Their piety in kneeling was probably hundreds of times more sincere than when they knelt before the emperor!
[Sigh, what a pity. This villain really does have the aura of an emperor; the golden dragon aura around him fluctuates in strength.]
[If it weren't for the male protagonist's overwhelming brilliance in this book, the throne would definitely belong to the major villain, right?]
[Take the young prince for example; in this book, he's a playful child who almost angered the main villain and ended up getting slapped and rendered stupid.]
Otherwise, how could that scoundrel of a male protagonist have had the chance to turn the tables and bite back?
This story later spread among the people, further tarnishing the villain's reputation; he was so tyrannical that he even dared to harm his own nephew.
Hearing Xiao Tang's sighs and lamentations, Di Jingling's brow twitched slightly.
He was always strict with that young prince.
After all, he is the little one who will inherit the throne. With his elder brother in imminent danger, it is not a bad thing to let the child get used to court affairs as soon as possible.
but……
He beat his own nephew so badly he became mentally impaired?
Ha, that's not like him.
He shoved his large hand into Xiao Tang's palm, and as he got off the carriage, he deliberately pressed his entire tall body against her.
Xiao Tang hadn't expected the man to lean on her so suddenly that she almost lost her balance and was about to sit back.
At that moment, a pair of extremely strong long arms reached out and locked her firmly in their embrace.
The villain's deep voice crashed down from above.
"The princess is truly frail; she shouldn't recklessly show off in the future, understand?"
[Damn, is he putting on a show for other people?]
Anyone who didn't know better would think he was deeply in love with me. Hmph, not bad, turns out even villains have acting talent.
To onlookers, their interaction at this moment certainly seemed like a display of deep affection.
At this moment, Di Yanhen also got off the carriage with Xiao Rourou and witnessed their intimate actions.
Di Yanhen gave a slightly sarcastic chuckle.
In front of everyone, under the watchful eyes of all, these two really weren't ashamed at all!
Xiao Rourou stared blankly at the Regent, a bittersweet feeling washing over her.
"Rou Rou, what's wrong?" Di Yanhen asked, interrupting her.
Xiao Rourou forced a smile: "It's nothing."
She was led by the man to the Regent.
Di Yanhen coldly called out, "Ninth Imperial Uncle, what are you doing with the Princess Consort?"
The sarcasm in his tone was hard to conceal.
Xiao Rourou gazed at the Regent with her bright, clear eyes.
Her soft, weak eyes held a hint of pitifulness.
Xiao Tang looked up and saw the female lead exchanging flirtatious glances with the villain right in front of the male lead, giving off a "I didn't want to stay by Di Yanhen's side, I was forced to" green tea expression.
Who are you trying to disgust with here?
[This scheming female lead, can you please work on your acting skills? I saw right through her.]
[They're eating what's in their bowl while eyeing what's in the pot. Do they really think this dynasty is their personal domain, that they're a sea tycoon or empress, free to choose as they please?]
