Chapter 19 Brother-in-law, are you just going to let my sister bully me?
Facing the prince's questions.
Mingyue sobbed softly twice, but she controlled the volume sensibly, like a kitten.
The voice was soft and aggrieved.
"Your Highness, are you blaming me? It was just too late. Those two human traffickers tortured this man, and he was about to be beaten to death. I had no choice but to save him. In the face of life-threatening danger, I didn't have time to think."
"Or, in your Highness's eyes, I am the kind of vicious woman who does not help others in need."
After saying this, he didn't wait for Huo Chenyuan to speak.
Mingyue seemed to suddenly understand.
"That's right. In your Highness's eyes, I have always been a vicious woman who bullied my sister and was arrogant and domineering. Your Highness, please think whatever you want. I have nothing to say."
Huo Chenyuan opened his mouth anxiously.
I want to say no.
He was worried about what would happen if the two human traffickers had bad intentions towards her.
Such a stunning appearance.
Anyone who is a person will be moved by it.
Even he...
He definitely didn't mean to be accusatory.
Huo Chenyuan was so anxious that he was speechless and wanted to explain himself, but he had nowhere to say it.
say what?
He said he was worried that she was in danger and that she would be targeted and harmed by human traffickers.
In what capacity?
Brother-in-law? If it was just brother-in-law, I'd worry that my wife's sister might be overstepping the bounds.
Huo Chenyuan didn't say anything, but Huo Xingchen spoke first.
"You are at least somewhat self-aware. His Highness has always been fair, strict, and impartial. If something were to happen to you, wouldn't it make people suspect His Highness's incompetence? Also, His Highness and the Crown Princess have been childhood sweethearts and have a deep bond. What qualifications do you have to make the Crown Prince worry? Just remember that."
Huo Chenyuan turned his head and stared at Huo Xingchen's face.
I used to think that this cousin was outstanding and brave, and I was looking forward to meeting him.
Now it looks particularly disgusting.
Even the face that looked somewhat similar to his made people want to punch him.
"Xingchen, I never meant that." Turning to Mingyue, he whispered, "You are Lian'er's sister, so I am naturally worried about you. If anything happened to you, Lian'er would be worried too. I don't mean to blame you."
Mingyue turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to Huo Chenyuan.
Damn dog man.
Although he was already somewhat attracted to her, he still couldn't let go of Minglian.
Something that sways from side to side.
Bah, when the day comes that he falls in love with her, just wait and see how she tortures him!!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mingyue glanced at Huo Xingchen quietly.
She pouted and glared at him lightly.
Huo Xingchen's ears turned red instantly.
She quickly looked away, at the sky, the ground, the trees, the birds, and the damn man lying on the ground.
Mingyue withdrew her gaze with satisfaction.
Sure enough, Huo Xingchen is the easiest to coax, and it seems that this method will work.
Gu Chengfeng folded his arms and crossed his chest, strolling over in a nonchalant manner, and the jade pendants he was wearing jingled when they collided with each other.
"If you ask me, you still know how cruel you are. You couldn't have caused those injuries on his body, did you? I don't think you could be so cruel."
Of course, this is just a wild guess.
Although Mingyue hit him, it didn't hurt. The wounds on his body were all caused by a whip. Where did she get the whip?
And with the little strength she has, can she pull it out?
But he just wanted to make her unhappy.
He just couldn't stand her. He ignored Huo Chenyuan and Huo Xingchen, but treated them like air.
This is looking down on him!
Mingyue was too lazy to pay attention to Gu Chengfeng. He was a useless dog and she never wanted to waste time training him.
She glanced at Gu Chengfeng, then slowly raised her hand to touch the hairpin, but just as she raised her hand.
Gu Chengfeng suddenly jumped back.
He covered his face tightly with his hands.
Like a grasshopper that suddenly goes crazy.
Even Huo Xingchen and Huo Chenyuan frowned at his sudden action.
She looked at him with disdain as if he were a madman who was making trouble for no reason.
baffling.
Mingyue pushed her hairpin nonchalantly, the corners of her mouth curled up silently, and a smile flashed in her cunning fox eyes, as clever as a little fox stealing meat.
After a long while, the air was silent.
Gu Chengfeng moved his hands to open the gap and looked out through his fingers. He saw that several people were looking at him like monkeys watching a monkey show.
Suddenly I realized that I am behaving like a fool.
Gu Chengfeng's face turned red as he looked at Mingyue.
Mingyue raised her eyebrows provocatively without any expression.
Gu Chengfeng's chest was heaving violently, and his face was redder than his clothes.
“You, you…you…you’re kidding me!!!”
In the eyes of several people, Mingyue pretended to be innocent.
She blinks her big eyes, and her long eyelashes are like the fluttering wings of a butterfly.
"What? Young Master, what are you talking about? Even though you hate me and have warned me many times because of my sister, I didn't do anything. His Highness and the Northern King of the Town are here, with so many eyes watching, how can you frame me out of thin air~"
Gu Chengfeng widened his eyes.
I'm so angry that I'm about to die.
The finger pointing at the bright moon was shaking constantly.
He opened and closed his mouth, unable to say anything. In contrast, Mingyue looked innocent, the beauty's eyes were misty with tears, while Gu Chengfeng, the devil, had a red face, looking like a bully.
"Gu Chengfeng, you jumped up all of a sudden, how can you blame Mingyue?"
"Your Highness...I...her!!" Gu Chengfeng stared at the prince who was protecting Mingyue with his eyes wide open, feeling so bitter that he couldn't say anything.
Did he mean that Mingyue slapped him yesterday?
No one will believe it if you don’t say it.
He can't afford to lose this person!
He threw his sleeves and snorted harshly.
He stared at the bright moon with his eyes, as if he wanted to scare it to death with his eyes from a distance.
Mingyue didn't even look at him.
He bowed and was about to leave with the unconscious Mingye.
"In that case, I will take my leave now. His injuries are quite serious and require prompt medical attention."
"Wait, sister, where did you just rescue this man? Why are his injuries so serious?" Minglian's anxious voice came without waiting to move.
He trotted over to the unconscious man, looking extremely worried.
He took a look at the man's injuries.
Minglian stood up and walked to Mingyue.
"Sister, leave this man to me. His injuries are very serious, and it's not good for an unmarried girl like you to take care of a man like him. I'll help you take care of him. I know a little bit about medicine."
"Besides, he was so badly injured, how could you let the maid drag him back? The injuries on his body were made worse by friction."
"This isn't saving people. If he wasn't so lucky, he would have died just by holding on for a while."
Minglian spoke truthfully to Mingyue with a sincere and upright attitude.
It was as if Mingyue had made a terrible mistake.
Her act of saving people was suddenly described as ignorant and harmful.
Mingyue's eyes suddenly turned red and filled with tears. She looked at Huo Chenyuan and Huo Xingchen helplessly, like a kitten being bullied and unable to resist.
"I... I was just saving someone, and my sister also said that I'm an unmarried woman. If I come back with a man, my reputation will be ruined. How could my sister say that to me? Is it wrong for me to save someone?"
"Brother-in-law, are you going to let my sister bully me like this? Is everything I do wrong? Is it wrong for me to come back to the capital alive? I should die outside and never appear in front of people again. Now even saving people is wrong."
Minglian frowned. Mingyue had become very difficult to deal with since the last time she was at the Prince's Mansion.
If she had said this before, Mingyue would have come up and argued with her.
But now she is pretending to cry and pretending to be weak.
She turned her head, wanting to ask someone to judge, but she saw the Crown Prince's slightly dissatisfied expression and Huo Xingchen staring at her intently.
Minglian suddenly realized that she seemed too hasty to say this.
But she had always said that before, that everyone was biased towards her.
Now even Gu Chengfeng, who had always been biased towards her without thinking, frowned.
I don't quite understand.
Is a rescued slave really worth Sister Lian’s fight for?
Minglian cleared her throat.
Take a deep breath.
"I'm sorry, sister. It was because I was so eager to save people and was anxious when I saw the injured people that I said the wrong thing. Don't blame me. I apologize to you."
Seeing this, Mingyue hummed softly with a nasal tone.
Huo Chenyuan's brows relaxed.
Huo Xingchen glared at Minglian fiercely.
Gu Chengfeng said with a grin, "Sister Lian, it's just a slave. She has already bought it, so let her worry about it."
Minglian nodded and said gently, "Sister, if there is anything you don't know, you can tell me. After all, I will help you take care of a life."
Gu Chengfeng nodded. As expected, Sister Lian was so kind. He almost thought that Sister Lian was being aggressive on purpose.
The person was taken away by the bright moon.
No matter how unwilling Minglian was, she could only look at the fainted man.
The warning in her heart kept telling her that this man would be of great help to her.
