Xu quickly stood up from the chair, slightly bent over, with cold sweat on her palms.
She bravely raised her eyelids and glanced at Jun Moyi, but she couldn't help but tremble with fear, unable to withstand the other's sharp gaze.
She knew that what Sang Yuyan said was true, but because it was true, she was even more afraid at the moment. She didn't know whether Jun Moyi would retaliate against them and how he would retaliate against them?
Now, Xu could only pray in her heart, praying that Sang Liwan's position in Jun Moyi's heart was high enough, so high that Jun Moyi would let their family go for her.
At the same time, Xu also had a lot of resentment towards Sang Yuyan in her heart. If she hadn't been looking for trouble, why would she have to suffer like this now?
Xu clenched the handkerchief in her hand and stood there trembling, "Your Highness has misunderstood. Yan'er definitely doesn't mean that."
"Really?" Jun Moyi sipped his tea and said slowly, "This is just a drop in the bucket. I have more here. Does mother-in-law want to hear it?"
Xu shut up.
She really didn't know much about this matter. She only heard Sang Liwan and Sang Yuyan mention it separately. She was afraid that Jun Moyi would tell her all the stupid things Sang Yuyan had done.
Xu felt that if that moment really came, she would probably roll her eyes and faint.
She quickly shook her head, considered it for a moment, and finally lifted up her skirt to kneel down and apologize.
Jun Moyi saw her movements and deliberately spoke after Xu's knees had bent, "Mother-in-law, what are you doing? No matter what, you are still my mother-in-law and an elder. How can an elder kneel before a younger person? Hurry up and get up."
"It's just that my legs are not convenient, so I can't help my mother-in-law stand up myself."
Xu smiled bitterly and said, "It's alright. Thank you, Your Highness, Prince An, for not making a fuss with me."
Jun Moyi leaned back in his chair, his eyes showing a bit of nonchalance, "This king has always been clear about gratitude and resentment, and will never take his anger out on others."
As for what would happen to Sang Yuyan, the instigator, Jun Moyi did not say.
But at this moment, even if Xu was worried, she couldn't bring up this topic anymore, otherwise it would be ignorant and might even bring trouble to the entire general's mansion.
She didn't dare take the risk.
After seeing Xu off, Jun Moyi slowly walked to the backyard. As soon as he entered the garden, he saw Sang Liwan sitting on a lounge chair basking in the sun with a bunch of grapes in his hand. When he tasted the sweet grapes, he couldn't help but squint his eyes, with a very rich expression.
Jun Moyi sat beside him and watched for a long time until Sang Liwan took the initiative to speak: "Your Highness, is it really that beautiful?"
Even though he was caught peeping, there was no change in Jun Moyi's expression.
He calmly directed Yan Hui to push him to Sang Liwan's side, and said in a clear voice, "This king's princess is naturally pleasing to the eye."
Hearing him say this, Sang Liwan was a little stunned. After all, in her impression, Jun Moyi has always been introverted and rarely says words like this in public.
She sat up straight, staring at Jun Moyi for a long time, then chewed another grape and said with a half-smile, "Is the sun rising from the west today? The prince's mouth is even sweeter than this grape."
Sang Liwan had originally just teased Jun Moyi on a whim, but she didn't expect that Jun Moyi's next words would make her almost choke to death on her own saliva.
"Wanwan hasn't tasted it yet, how do you know if grapes sweeten my mouth?"
"Puff, cough cough cough..."
Qingshui, who was serving Sang Liwan, lowered her head quickly to reduce her presence when she heard this.
These words were really not something a little maid like her could listen to. Didn’t she see that Yan Hui’s face opposite her had turned wooden?
But before she could completely lower her head, she heard Sang Liwan's heart-wrenching cough.
She was startled and quickly walked over to Sang Liwan to pat her back and help her breathe. "Princess, are you okay?"
“Cough cough cough…”
Sang Liwan coughed and waved at her, "It's okay, pour me a glass of water, cough cough cough..."
Seeing this, Qingshui didn't dare to delay and quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to Sang Liwan.
It was not until he drank a glass of water that Sang Liwan's complexion returned to normal.
Then, she glared at the culprit in annoyance, but the other party looked innocent, as if he had no idea why Sang Liwan reacted so strongly to what she said.
Isn't what he said true?
If Sang Liwan could also hear Jun Moyi's thoughts, she would probably start coughing again.
Seeing that Sang Liwan stopped coughing, Jun Moyi stopped teasing her and turned to talk about Xu.
"Your mother is afraid that I will bear a grudge against the General's Mansion because of Sang Yuyan's incident. I'm afraid that your sister won't have an easy time when I go back today."
Sang Liwan didn't care about the affairs of the General's Mansion, so after hearing his words, he just said indifferently: "She should be properly disciplined."
After she finished speaking, she seemed to remember something and glanced at Jun Moyi, "Is that what she came to you to tell you? I thought she was trying to test your opinion and see if you would propose to Gu Huaizhi for Sang Yuyan."
"That's what she meant."
Although Xu only mentioned this topic indirectly, it was enough for a shrewd person like Jun Moyi.
Sang Liwan was a little curious, "So what did you say?"
"I think this matter depends on what Prince Gu thinks. If she needs anything, I can ask for her."
Thinking of the expression on Xu's face at that time, a smile flashed in Jun Moyi's eyes.
Sang Liwan also laughed. She threw another grape into her mouth and said vaguely, "My mother must have been scared by you this time. She will probably have trouble sleeping when she goes back, for fear that Gu Huaizhi will give in."
"But she is too arrogant. What kind of person is Gu Huaizhi? How could he fall for Sang Yuyan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Moyi paused his movements, his eyes flickered slightly, as if broken ice and mist were flying, but there was still a faint smile on his face.
"Oh? Then Wanwan, tell me, what kind of person is Gu Huaizhi?"
【Hey, why did the temperature drop suddenly? 】
Sang Liwan looked up at the sky, which was still sunny, with a puzzled look on his face, but he suddenly felt a chill on his body.
She glanced at Qingshui and saw that he seemed to shiver slightly involuntarily. She asked curiously, "Qingshui, are you feeling cold too?"
Qingshui didn't expect that the princess would still think of her at this time. She almost fainted.
She glanced cautiously at Jun Moyi, who was smiling but not smiling, and then winked at Sang Liwan, signaling her to take a good look.
