Chapter 255 You won’t let your woman be snatched away, right?

Suddenly, there was a creaking sound from the carriage, and the horse outside cried out, and the whole carriage tilted forward.

Mu Nanzhou quickly grabbed Xu Yanyi and blurted out: "Are you hurt?"

Good fellow.

Xu Yanyi didn't fall but she felt like she saw a ghost. What's wrong with Mu Nanzhou? He must have wished she would fall under a carriage and be crushed to death, but now he asked her if it hurt?

It's really puzzling.

"Did he really fall?"

Mu Nanzhou saw that Xu Yanyi didn't say anything, and a hint of nervousness flashed in his eyes.

Xu Yanyi came back to her senses: "It's okay..."

"Who are you, and how dare you block the carriage of King Nanling?"

A guard outside raised his voice.

Xu Yanyi frowned and pulled the curtain open. A group of people came from not far away. They were not dressed in Northern Qin clothes. The man in the lead, who was sitting on a tall horse, held the reins in one hand and the whip in the other. There was a scar on the right side of his forehead, but it did not affect his innate hostility.

"It's Xiedan's Great Khan Ashinaye."

Mu Nanzhou recognized it after just a quick glance.

Xu Yanyi frowned, and then he heard Ashinaye say: "I came here specifically to find Prince Nanling."

Mu Nanzhou's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was indistinct: "Khan has come from afar, so I should do my best to show my courtesy. However, as Khan, I should go to the palace to meet the Emperor and the Queen Mother, and host a banquet to welcome you first. I was surprised that Khan was so anxious to come and stop the car."

Ashinaye raised the whip in his hand, pointing it at Xu Yanyi who was standing beside Mu Nan, and said loudly: "Let's first explain our purpose to the prince, and we will enter the palace together later."

Mu Nanzhou narrowed his eyes and said nothing, but subconsciously turned sideways to block Xu Yanyi.

"I heard that Princess Huiyang and the prince have separated. If that's the case, then everyone knows that I love the princess. I'm here to ask for her hand in marriage. The Queen Mother and the Emperor will certainly agree to this. Now I can escort the princess to the palace."

As he said this, Ashinaye winked, and the people he brought all stepped forward to surround Mu Nanzhou's carriage. It was obvious from their posture that they were going to rob someone in the street, and they were very arrogant.

The Grand Tutor and others were watching in the carriage on the other side, as if they were enjoying a good show, and didn't care at all.

Just as Mu Nanzhou was about to speak, Xu Yanyi patted his hand gently and said with a smile: "The Khan loves me and has come all the way to ask for my hand in marriage. I am naturally very grateful, but the prince and I haven't separated yet. Who spread rumors about you again?

Just now, someone spread a rumor that the prince was attacked and seriously injured. The Grand Tutor also believed the rumor and rushed here with people, but the prince was fine. Now the Khan has come and heard the rumor that the princess and the prince have separated and asked to marry the princess. There are too many rumors now."

Hearing this, Ashinaye's face darkened: "You have clearly written a letter of divorce. Your Princess of Northern Qin has the golden seal of the late emperor, so she can divorce her husband directly. Is this also a rumor? Could it be that the Princess despises me and doesn't want to marry me? I don't mind that you have been married before. Just go with me to Xiedan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ashinaye's men surrounded him and were about to jump onto the carriage to arrest him.

Good fellow.

Robbery in the street, are the people of Xiedan crazy?

Mu Nanzhou's face was gloomy. He protected Xu Yanyi with one hand and suddenly raised the other hand, and a sharp gust of wind leaped out.

"ah!"

"ah!"

The Xiedan guards who surrounded and arrested people fell down one after another and were unable to move.

King Xiedan Khan looked very unhappy: "King Nanling, what do you mean by this?"

"I want to ask the Khan what he means. It is true that the princess has written a divorce letter, but you also said that it is only valid if it is stamped with the golden seal bestowed by the late emperor. The divorce letter does not have a golden seal, so it cannot be taken as accurate. She is still my princess, today and in the future. If Khan Xiedan really likes girls from Northern Qin, you can ask the Grand Tutor to introduce some people to the Khan, right, Grand Tutor?"

Mu Nanzhou directly threw the question to Taifu and others who were watching the show on the side.

Xu Yanyi suppressed her laughter and watched the stunned tutor get off the carriage and bow: "King Khan, the Queen Mother and the Emperor originally thought that you would arrive next month, but you came today. Let's go to the palace first. As for the matter of selecting a concubine for the King Khan, I will definitely satisfy the King Khan."

"Okay, I will listen to you, Grand Tutor." Ashinaye snorted and looked at Mu Nanzhou coldly. "Prince Nanling, I will go to the palace to ask the Queen Mother for the golden seal! Drive!"

Ashinaye spurred his horse and rode away at full speed.

The Xiedan guards who were knocked to the ground by Mu Nanzhou also got up and chased after them.

The Taifu and others looked at each other.

Mu Nanzhou lowered the curtain and said, "Enter the palace."

The carriage moved forward quickly.

Xu Yanyi acted as if it had nothing to do with her. If someone didn't know better, they would have thought that it was Mu Nanzhou who was forced to marry.

"Aren't you worried?"

Mu Nanzhou looked at Xu Yanyi leisurely eating snacks on the small table and couldn't help but ask.

"What's there to worry about? You are the King of Nanling, you won't let your woman be snatched away, right? That would be so embarrassing, right?" Xu Yanyi chuckled. "Besides, as long as I don't want to get married, he won't be able to marry me even if he wants to."

"You are quite confident."

Mu Nanzhou looked at her quietly and poured her a glass of warm water. When he saw that she wanted to take the wine, he subconsciously held her hand and said, "Drinking is harmful to your body. Why would a girl drink wine?"

Suddenly, Xu Yanyi's heart moved. These words... a long time ago, the original owner was also said this by Mu Nanzhou.

I didn't expect that after such a long time, when I heard these words again, the emotions that the original owner had left in this body were still stirred.

Xu Yanyi obediently put down the wine, took the warm water that Mu Nanzhou handed over and took a sip, only to find it somewhat tasteless.

Mu Nanzhou lowered his head, took out a small paper bag from the drawer and unfolded it. Inside was fine powdered sugar.

He took the cup of warm water she had just taken a sip from, put some powdered sugar in it, stirred it evenly with a spoon and passed it to her: "I know you don't like tasteless food, so I'll add some powdered sugar for you. You always liked to eat it this way before."

Xu Yanyi frowned fiercely. The Mu Nanzhou in front of her was really... too different!

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Mu Nanzhou put the cup in her hand, thinking that she was still worried about Ashinaye, and said, "Don't worry, you just said that I will never let my woman be robbed. It's so embarrassing. I won't let him succeed."

Xu Yanyi seemed to have a lot of questions to ask, but she didn't ask them in the end. She drank the warm water with powdered sugar in it.

Neither of them spoke for a while.

Just at this moment, the carriage stopped again.
