Yuan Ningsu was not annoyed. He sat down and slowly drank the tea.
Guan Zhiyue was furious at his unbridled behavior, but she couldn't vent her anger!
What's the difference between this and punching cotton?
It's like a scholar encountering a soldier—you can't reason with him.
"Hmph, I advise you to let me go quickly, otherwise you know your brother has a bad temper."
"He cares about me so much, if he finds out I'm gone, he'll definitely make a huge effort to find me," Guan Zhiyue threatened.
"Little Yue'er, don't be angry. Why don't you calm down and have a cup of tea with me? My treatment is much better than Brother Li's."
"I heard that Brother Li used to put you in the cold palace, and only started to treat you well after you achieved something."
"Alas, I did go to the capital back then, intending to visit you, but unfortunately I was unable to go to the inner palace to see Xiao Yue'er. I am truly ashamed to say that!"
Yuan Ningsu began to speak in a rapid-fire, monotone manner, much like an old monk chanting sutras.
Guan Zhiyue reached up and picked at her ears; she had no interest in listening to an old flame pouring out his heart.
Of all the people the original owner had met before, apart from that silly boy Li Qishang who liked her from beginning to end, the others were all just all talk and no action. They only talked when they saw her achieve results that benefited the country and its people.
Only then did they swarm over like flies. Back when she hadn't transmigrated yet, when the original owner was in the cold palace, suffering all kinds of criticism, and all alone, where were these so-called childhood sweethearts?
What's the point of talking about childhood sweethearts these days?
Is it too late?
Now that she has married Li Qiji, she should abide by the virtues of a woman and not associate with these rabble.
When the original owner was in such a sorry state, why didn't these childhood sweethearts come to care for her?
If that were really the case, how could the original owner have died?
If the original owner hadn't been heartbroken, how could he have died with regrets?
"Enough! Stop bringing up the past. You all knew when I was suffering from hunger and cold in the Cold Palace, didn't you? Why didn't you show up then?"
"Now that I've researched and developed various high-yield grains and all sorts of new things, all your so-called childhood sweethearts are flocking to me?"
"People often say that if you want the Bodhisattva to respond, you have to burn incense all the time. You guys only pray to Guanyin when you need something, and go to hell when you don't."
"Don't you find this disgusting? I don't like people beating around the bush with me. Just tell me directly why you kidnapped me. Be open and honest, and I might respect you as a man. But this despicable behavior makes you look like an idiot!"
Yuan Ningsu was taken aback by Guan Zhiyue's words and then laughed.
"Hahaha, it seems Yue'er is very unwilling!"
"That's great! Why don't you divorce Brother Li? My Ningjian Kingdom will marry you and make you the Heavenly Mother of our country, so that you can be worshipped by the people for all eternity. You can be happy and do whatever you want."
"I will give you the life you want and take you to the life you've always wanted."
Guan Zhiyue: You son of a bitch! If I get a divorce, why would I marry anyone?
Before Guan Zhiyue could say anything, the wooden door wobbled and collapsed inside.
"Your Highness, you have overstepped your bounds."
Li Qiji, clad in golden armor and wielding his soft sword, was followed by a large group of armed soldiers, as well as the three members of the Guan family, all glaring angrily at the people inside the house.
Yuan Ningsu looked towards the main entrance, lifted his foot, and walked to Li Qiji's side with a nonchalant air. He used his fan to lift Li Qiji's chin, looking like a scoundrel.
"Oh, our Emperor, is he so enraged by a beauty?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, but you'll have to pay me back for this!"
Guan Zhiyue watched the two of them, their tone of voice, and their flirtatious manner. Good heavens!
What is this?! Is this even something she can see?
So Yuan Ningsu didn't fall for the original owner of this body? Was it her husband?
Holy crap! That's exciting!
This is so exciting! Why is it so exciting?!
"You're neglecting your duties. Ningjian Kingdom will fall into your hands sooner or later!" Li Qiji slapped away the hand that was trying to wrap around his arm, looking disgusted.
Yuan Ningsu shrugged indifferently and then said, "I was just kidding with you. Do you think all of us are like that?"
Li Qiji ignored him and walked towards Guan Zhiyue on the balcony.
Are you injured?
Guan Zhiyue shook her head and didn't reply!
Li Qiji reached out and pulled Guan Zhiyue back, saying softly, "I thought something had happened to you. I was so scared that I quickly mobilized people to search for you everywhere."
"Then how did you find me?"
Li Qiji pointed to Yuan Ningsu, who was watching the two of them with amusement, and said softly, "He sent someone to inform you, otherwise it would have taken me a little longer to find you."
"Oh, don't worry, I'm fine!"
"Father, daughter, are you alright?"
When Guan Hongsheng saw Guan Zhiyue approaching, he quickly stepped forward and pulled her behind him, giving her a good look.
Li Qiji turned to Yuan Ningsu and said, "My Empress has been frightened. Shouldn't His Highness the Crown Prince send some gifts as compensation?"
Yuan Ningsu's lips twitched, but she still said, "Don't worry, even if Xiao Yue'er wasn't frightened, I would still give her a gift. After all, we've been childhood sweethearts!"
Li Qiji: You shameless bastard.
Rosamund Kwan: To hell with childhood sweethearts!
Guan Hongsheng: Is his daughter really that popular?
Guan Chengzhuo & Guan Chengheng: My sister's luck with men is really good!
Others: Your Majesty, you are amazing!
"Your Highness, what brings you to our territory?"
"Oh dear, Your Majesty, the way you're saying that makes it sound like you've led your troops to trample on our territory!"
Rosamund Kwan: ....
So she's gone abroad and come to the territory of Ningjian Kingdom?
She even contributed her own fertilizer to the Ningjian Kingdom? Isn't that just helping others gain power?
"Are you done talking? If you are, let's go!"
Yuan Ningsu looked heartbroken, pouted, and called out in a weak voice, "Little Yue'er, are you really that heartless? Won't you play with me a little longer?"
"Screw your mother, get out!"
Li Qiji: Why is my wife so irritable?
"In that case, I will take the Empress back first. Tomorrow we will have a drink together with Brother Yuan!" Li Qiji glanced at Yuan Ningsu, then turned and left with Guan Zhiyue.
As Yuan Ningsu watched the departing people, he shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, my door! My door! My door!"
Rosamund Kwan: ....
