Although Qi Yuxuan drank a lot of wine, his eyes were still sober when he looked at Qingdai.
For a moment he wanted to ignore it, but he couldn't stand the extremely cold look from the emperor sitting on the high throne.
The oppressive feeling in the emperor's eyes made him feel as if a knife was on his neck and he was being stared at by a wild beast.
Cheng Zuo also looked at Qi Yuxuan with an unfriendly look.
This man actually dares to challenge His Majesty here.
He recalled the results of his interrogation of the brothel madam who kidnapped Miss Qing on the orders of His Majesty.
Looking at Qi Yuxuan now is like looking at some kind of absolute scumbag.
How could someone be so heartless as to sell an innocent girl to a brothel?!
Beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down both sides of Qi Yuxuan's cheeks.
In the end, he still didn't have the courage to speak out, so he could only stand up tremblingly and kneel on the ground again:
"I, your humble servant, was drunk and spoke nonsense. I apologize to Your Majesty."
After apologizing, he limped out of the hall with a cane, his back revealing a bit of panic.
...It feels a bit like running away.
The ministers were all speechless.
Are you running away now?
It seems that after confronting His Majesty, the Crown Prince didn't dare to say a word.
This... was simply being beaten to the point of having no power to fight back!
The ministers were discussing this in their hearts.
Qingdai couldn't help but grin.
From the moment Qi Yuxuan knelt down, she clearly felt the man's hand on her waist getting tighter and tighter, as if he was afraid that she would run away.
He didn't show it on the surface, but a single look revealed his murderous intent, which scared Qi Yuxuan so much that he fled in panic.
"Worried about him?"
???
My friend, how did you see the worried expression on her face?
Qingdai expressed complete denial with her eyes.
"Then why do you keep staring at him?"
Xiao Guangbai didn't show it on the surface, but in fact, the fingers hidden in his sleeves were tightly gripping the jade ring.
Especially when he saw Qingdai staring at Qi Yuxuan's back, he almost crushed the jade ring with such force.
???
What? What does it mean to stare at him? She was clearly admiring the scumbag's defeated posture!
Qingdai turned her head to look at Xiao Guangbai's expression.
This guy's handsome face looks serious, majestic and domineering.
But for some reason it gives people a sense of fragility that can be broken with a single poke.
"Perhaps to see how Your Majesty... drives away his love rival with such domineering power and majesty?"
Xiao Guangbai was also waiting for Qingdai's reaction.
Even though Qingdai had come to him, he was still afraid that such a short time would not be enough for her to cut off her feelings.
I was afraid that she didn’t know the truth, and that there was still a place for that person in her heart.
"...What is a love rival?"
Xiao Guangbai didn't expect Qingdai to say this, so he asked.
Qingdai couldn't help but smile when she saw the doubt in the emperor's eyes.
"For example, Your Majesty and the Crown Prince are rivals in love..."
Although Xiao Guangbai didn't know this trendy word, he couldn't help but guess what it meant when he heard Qingdai's teasing tone.
"you……"
Qingdai raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Guangbai pursed his lips and said nothing.
In fact, he thought Qingdai still had that man in her heart. After all, they were already at the stage of discussing marriage.
He thought that she had agreed to his request only because she felt betrayed for a moment.
He thought that when he saw Qi Yuxuan again, her old feelings would rekindle.
He was even prepared for how he would respond if she pleaded for that man...
But with all the thoughts that came to mind, I had never expected her to react like this.
"Are you..." She had already put him down.
These words rolled around in Xiao Guangbai's mouth for a few times, but he never said them out loud.
"What did you say?"
Qingdai asked curiously, pouring a glass of wine and placing it next to Xiao Guangbai.
Xiao Guangbai quickly calmed down, drank the glass of wine in one gulp, and said as if nothing had happened.
"Nothing."
His expression was so normal that no one could notice anything unusual.
***
"Host, I saw it~~~~"
The system is so happy that it takes off.
Because he saw that the host, who was always known for being lazy, actually took the initiative to put the detoxification pill into the male protagonist's wine glass!
It is so difficult for the host to take the initiative to advance the task!
"Of course... a year's plan begins with spring. Now that we've finally entered the palace, of course we have to get to work!"
The system whispered: "It makes you say that a year's plan begins with spring..."
Why doesn't he believe it?!
QAQ
Qingdai waved her hand and touched the system's head through the air.
"System, you said that the emperor didn't say anything just now. You didn't think I was going to plead for mercy on behalf of that scumbag, did you?"
Qingdai raised her eyebrows and asked the system in her heart.
As a string of data, the system that can sense the protagonist's innermost thoughts dare not speak.
...I guess the host didn't expect it, and he actually guessed it right.
Although the system can produce a series of props that make Qingdai feel amazed, as a master, his mind is really simple.
Qingdai quickly got the answer from the system's silence.
She secretly complained in her heart.
It seems that the emperor of this dimension is not only a yandere but also very sensitive...
Thinking of the last main task released by the system, Qingdai lowered her head, hiding the deep thought in her eyes.
