r home-made bamboo bow, crafted by Jing for her, came in handy at this moment.When those dozen or so people charged forward, An Xuetang motioned for Ding Yi to step back. She took matters into her own...Did you call me

An Xuetang blinked and looked at Mo Yunjing. Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice cold, "What's going on"

Mo Junyi snorted, "It's not your fault that things are so messed up, now my mother will be upset."

An Xuetang: "..."

How could he be so sure she would feel bad

Mò Yúnjǐng's pitch-black and profound eyes narrowed slightly, looking as if he were about to scold him.

Seeing this, An Xuetang quickly pretended to be angry and lightly tapped Mo Junyi's head, "How do you speak to your Fifth Uncle Be polite in the future."

Mo Junyi raised an eyebrow, "Oh, Mother, you'd better go outside and take a look. They're bullying us right at our doorstep! My son will get back at them for you. I want to see how that...that despicable wretch dares to show up here!"

Mo Junyi had also overheard the gossip of the maidservants in the estate when he lived there before. They spoke rather… coarsely. Just now, he subconsciously wanted to describe the woman at the army camp gate with vulgar words, but seeing his Fifth Uncle's gloomy expression, he quickly changed his wording.

An Xuetang frowned, as if she had guessed something. At this moment, Mo Yunjing said coldly, "Have people come from the capital"

Mò Jūn Yì nodded. "That's right, Grandpa Emperor's imperial edict has arrived, and... he also sent a woman with it."

As expected, An Xuetang thought to herself, no wonder her Ziling was so angry. It turned out that the emperor couldn't stand Mo Yunjing being so carefree, so he wanted to place a woman by his side, eh

This emperor, he just can't stand a day without causing trouble!

Mo Junyi's words had just fallen, and Mo Yunjing subconsciously looked at An Xuetang, "Tangtang, about that woman I..."

"Ah Jing, you don't need to worry. I'm not the type to make unreasonable demands. This was the Emperor's idea, not yours. I wouldn't be angry with you because of this."

At this moment, An Xuetang was unaware that sometimes, when a woman acts unreasonable, she may not even be aware of it herself.

"Mother, quickly drive that woman away. With her looks, she dares to try and take your place She's utterly delusional."

An Xue Tang chuckled and tapped his head, "How did you learn to judge people by their appearance"

Mo Junyi puckered his mouth, "I'm telling the truth, aren't I"

Mo Yunjing slowly stood up, “Let's go, take a look outside.”

Outside the military camp, a eunuch with an imperial decree and five women by his side arrived. Judging from their attire, the five women were clearly mistress and servants.

"You lot of uncouth oafs, get out of the way! Do you know who my young mistress is To actually stop her here in the cold wind, if the Fifth Prince were to find out, you wouldn't be able to bear the consequences!"

This was said by one of the five women dressed as maids.

She had been berating the guards ever since she arrived at the camp.

If it weren't for the eunuch standing beside them, holding the imperial decree, they would have long since thrown this noisy woman elsewhere.

For now, the prince and his men hadn't issued an order. They could only listen in silence, pretending to be deaf and hearing nothing.

"Xiaoqin." The gorgeously dressed woman suddenly spoke, "Don't say any more. Even Li Gonggong hasn't said anything, we have even less right to speak."

That suddenly named Li Gonggong gave an official smile, "Miss Cheng is joking. As a rough man from our household, I have the fortune of waiting here for Fifth Prince's summons. How could I feel cold"

After Li Gonggong finished speaking, he sneered in his heart, laughing at the maidservant named Xiaoqin for being ignorant of her place.

She didn't even bother to look around. This was the Northern Frontier City, a place far from the imperial court. People here might not know who the emperor was, but surely everyone knew who the Fifth Prince was

Here, who dares to anger the Fifth Prince's people Unless they don't want their lives.

Don't think he can't hear that Miss Cheng wants to pull him out to be a shield, making him the scapegoat for this group of people.

But he wasn't stupid. If he didn't even know how to take care of himself, how could he have survived all these years by the unpredictable emperor

Li Gonggong's words made the four maidservants beside Cheng Ru'er unhappy, and they all spoke out to criticize him.

“Grand Eunuch Li, you have the emperor's decree in your hand. These uncouth and ignorant ruffians dare to obstruct you. Aren't you angry”

"That's right, it's freezing here! Wouldn't you be upset if someone stopped you like this, Master Li You're a favorite of the Emperor!"

"That's right, it's said that even a seventh-rank official wouldn't be treated respectfully in front of the prime minister, let alone you, Li Gonggong, who is so close to the Emperor. You're enduring this disrespect from these vulgar men"

"Master Li, why not seek justice for yourself"

Cheng Ru'er's four maidservants, named after qin (guzheng), chess, calligraphy, and painting, now each took turns to sow discord between Li Gonggong and the guards.

Li Gonggong was about to roll his eyes at these words, but before he could say anything, a voice as sweet as a yellow oriole drifted over, "You call them vulgar men Don't you think your status is lower than theirs"

Suddenly, everyone was drawn to the sound. Seeing the arrival of a woman, extremely beautiful, Cheng Ru'er clenched her fists slightly.

An Xuetang's appearance is indeed beautiful. Although she is dressed plainly at this time and her hair is not styled deliberately, a strand of lustrous black hair just hangs there, adding a unique flavor.

Below her gently curved willow eyebrows were a pair of mesmerizing eyes, her exquisitely shaped nose was very high and straight, and her cherry-like lips, as red as drops of water, complemented her smooth, snowy skin that resembled ice and snow. This sight made even Cheng Ru'er, another young woman, and the four maids who specialized in poetry, chess, calligraphy, and painting, feel envious.

At this time, Mo Yunjing and Mo Juniyi hadn't shown up yet. An Xuetang didn't know what kind of scheme they were cooking up. She let them stay hidden for now and walked over alone.

That Xiaoqin, seeing An Xuetang dressed plainly, the fabric wasn't luxurious at all, she subconsciously thought that she wasn't a big shot. At this moment, she slanted her eyes and looked at An Xuetang arrogantly, "My status isn't noble, but it's definitely better than being a military prostitute."

"!"

Hearing the maidservant actually associate the Princess with a military courtesan, the soldiers closest to them instantly grew angry.

I saw them each punch the little qin, knocking out her teeth directly. Another soldier had already drawn his sword and was ready to take her life.

Everything happened so quickly that Li Gonggong and Cheng Ru'er, who were present, were terrified. They stepped back two steps in succession.

"Stop." An Xuetang spoke up in time, temporarily saving the young qin's life.

The soldiers immediately knelt down and bowed to An Xuetang, saying in unison, "My lord, we have met the princess."

Queen!

Cheng Ru'er's face changed, and she looked at An Xue Tang with some disbelief.

Li Gonggong's hand holding the imperial edict trembled. If this woman was indeed the Fifth Princess Consort, would he lose his life after proclaiming the edict todayuld still keep her"In her eyes, anyone who has ever harmed the princess should not be allowed in the palace, let alone by her side.If she doesn't handle Shuangshuang, she will never be at ease, even i...
