Chapter 9 You can kiss as you like

Li Qiuer, who was standing next to them, saw that Mu Nanzhou was staring at Xu Yanyi so intently.

The jealousy in her eyes burned like fire, and her body tilted as if she was about to fall to the ground.

Mu Nanzhou came back to his senses and held her waist, saying softly: "Qiu'er, are you okay?"

Li Qiu'er leaned in his arms and spoke weakly: "It's okay, I just feel a little dizzy. If you have anything to say to the princess, I will go back to rest first, and you can talk to the princess. Otherwise, I can let you use my room."

Is Mu Nanzhou blind? He protects such a big white lotus flower like it’s a treasure!

Xu Yanyi was too lazy to watch these two people show their affection, but she always liked to break up couples.

What's more, Mu Nanzhou treated the original owner so badly, she had to deal with them somehow, otherwise these people would think she was easy to bully.

Thinking of this, Xu Yanyi smiled slightly and acted magnanimous: "Oh, Miss Li, don't say that. When you were divorced by your husband and came to the capital to seek refuge with the prince, everyone despised you.

But the prince took you in despite the gossip because you are his cousin. As the princess, if I am serious, you should call me cousin.

Now you failed to force the prince to marry you, and instead you committed suicide by taking poison. It was not easy for someone to rescue you. Who dares to snatch a man from you? Don't worry, I'm just passing by. You can chat, hug, and kiss as you please."

After saying that, Xu Yanyi turned around and left without paying any attention to Mu Nanzhou's face which was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Mu Nanzhou's anger was rising: "Xu Yanyi! Stop!"

Xu Yanyi pretended to shrink her neck, quickly hid behind the Minister of Rites next to her, and acted terrified.

After all, she is the eldest princess. Although everyone thinks that she did it, she, the eldest princess, has long been regarded as cruel and ruthless.

But she has not confessed her guilt for so long, and the new emperor has not deprived her of her title of princess. Some old ministers still believe in her privately. For example, the Minister of Rites stood on the side of the original owner.

Seeing Xu Yanyi's fearful look, he couldn't help but ask: "Is what the princess said true? People outside say that the princess poisoned her out of jealousy, this..."

"How could I have poisoned you?"

Xu Yanyi reached out and pinched herself secretly, her eyes turned red from the pain.

She sobbed deliberately.

"Even if I were jealous, I wouldn't be able to do that. Look at what I wear and use, and then look at where I live. It's worse than that of a servant.

I am the eldest princess and the Princess of Nanling, but I am followed by only a maid, who I brought out from the palace. She has not changed over the years.

What does this prove? It proves that my status in the mansion is completely inferior to Miss Li's. With my status, I'm afraid I can't even enter Miss Li's yard on normal days.

If the gate had not been open today, I would have been mistaken for someone passing by and would not have been able to get in. In this case, how could I have poisoned her?"

Hearing this, everyone present looked at each other in surprise.

Yes, Li Qiuer’s family used to live in Youyang, and Li Qiuer was promised to a wealthy family by the Li family.

But she was divorced by that man in less than half a year, and Li Qiuer came back crying. The Li family then found out that Li Qiuer had an affair with the housekeeper of the mansion and was divorced.

This matter caused a lot of uproar, and in the end it was only after the Mu family in the capital came out to intercede that the matter was settled.

Although no one has mentioned it in recent years, it doesn’t mean that people don’t know about it.

Now hearing what Xu Yanyi said, everyone's eyes were on Li Qiuer and Xu Yanyi.
