“Remove her veil.”
A deep, cold male voice suddenly came from inside the sedan chair.
Jin Yinhua recognized the voice almost instantly; it was Mu Anyu.
“He was in the shop. He knew it was Yunyan’s shop, and he did it on purpose.”
Lord Li responded and directly ripped off Su Yunyan's veil.
"Oh, isn't this our former Crown Princess?"
Honeysuckle bit her lower lip tightly.
Yan Mufeng also realized: "He came here to humiliate Yunyan, you bastard!"
Su Yunyan watched their back-and-forth, but her face remained expressionless: Humiliation? No one could humiliate her now.
"Lord Li, have you seen me before? But you must remember me more clearly. There is no such thing as a Crown Prince or Crown Princess now. If this gets to the Emperor's ears, it will be very bad."
Even now, the emperor is reluctant to mention his son who was demoted to a commoner. If this Lord Li continues to pester him, don't blame her for making a scene and acting like a shrew.
Lord Li originally thought that these words would make this arrogant woman feel ashamed and indignant, but he did not expect that she would not panic at all and even threaten him.
"How dare you! You dare threaten me? It's illegal for a woman to open a shop in public. What are you all standing there for? Take her away!"
Su Yunyan was suddenly pushed by the yamen runner and stumbled.
"Wait a minute, who said this shop is run by a woman?"
An Ning, dressed in a light blue robe with her long hair tied up and holding a folding fan, walked straight into the store.
The people hiding in the back room looked at each other in bewilderment: "When did Xiao Ningzi go out?"
Lord Li looked at An Ning and was also taken aback: Is this news reliable? Wasn't it confirmed that Sihai Yixiu was run by a woman? How come a man has suddenly appeared?
Thinking it over, he had no choice but to fawn over the sedan chair and whisper, "Your Highness, what should we do now?"
Mu Anyu coughed impatiently: "Searching a store, isn't that your forte?"
Lord Li immediately understood.
"According to reports from the public, your store contains prohibited items. For the safety of the people of Beijing, we must enter the store for a search."
Before the words were even finished, the person in the sedan chair said again, "Surround the shop completely, especially the back door and secret passage."
"yes."
"Quickly, quickly, you guys go over there, you guys go to the back door, surround the whole shop."
Mu Anyu lifted a corner of the curtain to look at the shop entrance, and his gaze was instantly drawn to An Ning.
He frowned slightly, feeling that this man was too delicate and not very tall, especially his eyes, which seemed vaguely familiar.
The first group of yamen runners had already flooded into the shop and started ransacking it haphazardly.
The people in the back room huddled together, barely daring to breathe, with only the sound of their own thunderous heartbeats audible.
"etc."
Mu Anyu half-lifted the curtain and pointed at Anning.
“They stripped off his shirt and pulled off his jade crown.”
An Ning was shocked: Oh no, he's doubting my identity.
The people in the room were puzzled: Did he suspect that Xiao Ningzi wasn't a man? But she couldn't possibly be a woman!
As he spoke, a yamen runner walked straight toward Anning.
Yan Mufeng gripped his short sword and took a step forward, ready to charge out.
Just then, a dark figure suddenly appeared, stretched out two fingers and firmly pressed down on the arm that was reaching towards An Ning, then violently flung it away.
The bailiff fell to the ground with a thud.
Lord Li roared, "Who dares to obstruct my enforcement of the law?"
