However, how she puts it and how she seizes the opportunity depends on her own abilities.
After a moment, Bai Ruohan took a deep breath and tried to calm himself before speaking, "Does Your Highness not intend to take responsibility?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan chuckled, his dark eyes still holding a chill, before retorting, "What responsibility do you want me to bear?"
Bai Ruohan was speechless for a moment. After a long pause, she stammered, "I...I fainted because of you!"
"Is that so? Then you really have to blame me. If it weren't for me, none of this would have happened! Miss Bai, do you think I'm bored and want to amuse me, or do you think I'm stupid enough to be easily fooled by you?"
Feng Beichuan's tone grew increasingly cold and hard, and his expression became increasingly grim. He stared directly at Bai Ruohan, his entire being radiating a murderous aura.
Looking at the man's gloomy face, Bai Ruohan couldn't help but feel a little panicked—this man's sense of oppression was just too strong!
And what exactly did he mean by what he just said?
Has the other party already figured out something?
At this moment, Bai Ruohan felt her mind was in turmoil. She had originally planned to use this opportunity to entangle Feng Beichuan, but now it seemed that she was in a difficult situation.
Feng Beichuan really didn't want to look at this woman anymore, and he couldn't help but turn his face away in disgust.
Then, Feng Beichuan suddenly remembered what he and Li Chang'an had seen and heard on the roof of the Prime Minister's residence that day.
So he couldn't help but sneer inwardly. He never expected that the old fox Bai Yuanshan would dare to send such a piece of trash to his side. He really didn't know if Bai Yuanshan thought too highly of his precious daughter or underestimated his own judgment.
Not to mention that he himself did not agree to hold this selection process, even if he really wanted to choose a princess through a selection process, he would never choose such an unpresentable woman to embarrass himself.
Bai Ruohan saw his action and was truly heartbroken.
Am I really that disliked by him?
They disliked me so much that they wouldn't even look at me twice.
Bai Ruohan felt a sudden pang of heartache; all the hopes and beautiful fantasies that had once sprouted in her heart shattered in that instant.
Feng Beichuan, however, was completely unaware of this. He couldn't help but recall the words he had spoken with Li Chang'an on the roof of the Prime Minister's residence that day, and the jealous words of the woman.
Although Feng Beichuan had jokingly asked Li Chang'an to marry him while the iron was hot, he could never forget the fleeting look of sadness on the woman's face after she told him that the emperor had ordered the selection of concubines for her.
At this moment, Feng Beichuan suddenly felt a surge of passion welling up inside him.
As the saying goes, "Where there is a will, there is a way."
No matter how ruthless Li Chang'an may be, she is still human, and Feng Beichuan simply doesn't believe that the woman would be completely unmoved by his pursuit.
Perhaps the reason she rejected his marriage proposal in court was because she wasn't ready yet?
Or perhaps she had some kind of hardship that forced her to reject him?
Moreover, I acted impulsively at the time and seemed to have rushed things.
As he pondered this, Feng Beichuan actually began to silently defend Li Chang'an in his heart.
The more Feng Beichuan thought about it, the more he felt that what he had said to that woman in the court and what he had done were all very inappropriate.
I suddenly felt a little guilty.
Afterwards, Feng Beichuan couldn't help but silently blame himself for unknowingly hurting someone he had no way of hurting.
Indeed, after being rejected by Li Chang'an, I was very sad, and even felt as if my heart had been ripped out.
But now, putting yourself in Li Chang'an's shoes, how could you feel any better?
Under those circumstances, uttering such irrational words in front of everyone and the entire court undoubtedly put that woman in the eye of the storm.
Feng Beichuan felt increasingly saddened as he thought about it. He realized that because he was the regent whom everyone feared, he always acted as if he were fearless, while Li Chang'an was different.
She was a woman, facing the watchful eyes of so many cunning old foxes. She had finally managed to gain a foothold in the court and was walking on thin ice as a courtier, but now she was likely to be targeted by those with ill intentions again.
I really should get lost!
In the end, Feng Beichuan came to this conclusion and then cursed himself in his heart without any restraint.
However, speaking of troubles, Li Chang'an's life has indeed been full of twists and turns, with troubles coming one after another.
Li Chang'an was in a bad mood because of Feng Beichuan's matter. She originally wanted to ride her horse to a villa in the suburbs to relax, but when she passed through the bustling city, she was blocked by a group of noisy people.
"Whoa—"
Li Chang'an had no choice but to stop his horse. He originally intended to take a detour, but instead caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
"Grab him right now!"
"You dare ruin my plans! Today you'll regret this..."
"Hey, are you guys sore losers? You think you're right to cheat?"
"Get out of here! If you say another word, I'll cut your tongue out..."
"My dad is... Ahhh! Murder! Help!"
The group of people in front were making a lot of noise, attracting the attention of passersby. But seeing that the group of burly men looked ready to fight, no one dared to step forward to stop them.
Li Chang'an narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately noticed a man of medium height and slightly thinness among the burly men.
The man was dressed in a light blue silk robe with narrow sleeves. The fine fabric of the robe looked somewhat disheveled at this moment, and his originally meticulously combed hair had become slightly loose.
He was surrounded by those burly men at that moment, and he looked somewhat out of place in that chaotic crowd.
Li Chang'an wasn't entirely sure based on the clothes and figure alone, but as soon as she heard the voice, she immediately recognized the person.
Only the young master of the Liang family could still be so witty at such a crucial moment.
Immediately, Li Chang'an dismounted and headed towards the group of people.
It was truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly. Li Chang'an probably never imagined that such a casual glance would bring him such a big trouble.
Of course, all of this is a story for later. Right now, the most heartbroken person is probably Bai Ruohan.
