Smiling Phoenix Overwhelms the World - C278
Shen Hanxin! “She’s an elegant lady of the palace. Aren’t you afraid that the emperor will punish you?” Xia Hou Yuying said angrily. But that move of Shen Hanxin’s really made her restrain herself a lot.
“Princess, look carefully, is this Meng Yan really the beautiful girl you’re looking for?” If so, this duke would not dare to have the people from the palace stay in the manor without permission. If not, I hope that princess will not spout nonsense. Shen Hanxin looked at Xia Hou Yuying, her eyes suddenly turning as cold as a blade, Xia Hou Yuying was instantly at a loss for words, since the ‘Forget Worry Pill’ was Shen Han’s property, it was hard to guarantee that he would not have an antidote, if that was the case, then Meng Yan Ruo would say something in front of the Emperor that shouldn’t have been said, and her aunt would not have gotten what she wanted, it seemed like it was not a wise decision to suddenly rush here to ask for someone.
“Cough, cough …” Let this princess have a good look! ” As Xia Hou Yuying spoke, she walked towards Meng Yan, looking at those cold eyes without any ripples, Xia Hou Yuying suddenly felt a bit of hatred, but since Shen Hanxin’s words were threatening, Xia Hou Yuying could only suppress the anger in her heart, taking a deep breath and saying in a deep voice.
“They look alike, but they are not the same person! It seems like this princess has been rude. I hope that Your Highness can let go of my guards and let Yu Ying take her leave. ” As long as he was certain that Duan Moyan was in the Mu King Manor, he would be satisfied. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Seeing that Xia Hou Yu had let go, Shen Hanxin’s expression softened a lot. He then flicked his finger, and the four of them regained their senses.
“Princess, are you sure Meng Yan isn’t the person you’re looking for?” A clear and melodious voice rang out as Duan Mu Yan slowly walked towards Xia Hou and Yu Ying. She looked straight at the girl in front of her. She was clearly Hua Qing Palace’s Meng Yan, how could she be wrong? Since she didn’t dare admit it, then she must have been lying. Looking at the furious eyes of Xia Hou Yuying, Duan Muyan could clearly feel that this person hated her to the core. This hatred was extremely strong, but she had already forgotten when she had offended such an arrogant woman.
“You! Don’t think that just because Shen Hanxin is backing you up, I won’t dare to do anything to you? “Don’t let me see you leave the Mu King’s Manor, or else …” Xia Hou Yu Ying suppressed her anger as she slowly walked to Duan Mu Yan’s side and warned him in a low voice.
“Otherwise what? Was the princess threatening Meng Yan? I wonder what matter Meng Yan has offended the princess for that she would treat you with such kindness? ” Without waiting for Xia Hou Yu Ying to finish speaking, Duan Mu Yan’s voice suddenly rang out, questioning her loudly. When Xia Hou Yu Ying heard her voice, her face immediately flushed a deep shade of green.
“You really don’t know?” Xia Hou Yuying re-examined Duan Mu Yan, and seeing her cold and emotionless gaze, she guessed that Shen Han Xin must not have given her the antidote.
“That is to say, Meng Yan has indeed offended the princess, and that is why the princess wanted to use her maiden name to send Meng Yan to the dragon bed for revenge?” In the meantime, Hua Fei had also put in a lot of effort. Although Meng Yan was still very inexperienced, she knew what the punishment for deceiving the Emperor should be like. Now, even if the princess does not wish to bring Meng Yan back to the Imperial Palace, Meng Yan would still very much like to enter the Imperial Palace to pay her respects to the Emperor! ” Her ice-cold voice had no trace of warmth, and her tone was solemn as if she had no intention of making a joke. When Xia Hou Yuying heard this, she immediately panicked. If Meng Yan really entered the palace, wouldn’t she be harming her aunt?
Shen Han Xin looked at the girl beside her with interest. Could it be that this’ Forget Worry Pill ‘could make people forget their past and make them become so astute and intelligent at the same time? Or was this the true side of Meng Yan? At that time, she knew too little about her.
“Huang …” How could you, a commoner, enter the Imperial Palace as you please! ” Xia Hou Yu choked, a light flickering in her eyes. She had never expected that she would be defeated by Meng Yan. She felt uneasy.
“Civilians… It seemed that Meng Yan really wasn’t an elegant girl … Didn’t Your Highness say to eat? If you don’t mind, why don’t we go together? ” After Xia Hou Yu Ying had shut her mouth, Duan Mu Yan suddenly pursed her lips and laughed. Her eyes looked harmless and she felt that she was being toyed with by Duan Mu Yan. Xia Hou Yu Ying’s expression suddenly turned cold.
“Humph!” Xia Hou Yuying glared fiercely at Duan Mu Yan before turning around to leave the main hall, only to see the butler anxiously walk in.
“Reporting to your highness, outside the door, Duke Han requests an audience!” Hearing her words, Xia Hou Yuying suddenly stopped and had no intention of leaving. Shen Han Xin had expected her fourth brother to guess where Meng Yan was, but she didn’t expect him to arrive so quickly. On the other hand, Duan Muyan had a calm expression on her face. It was as if the person the butler spoke of had nothing to do with her.
“Pass on!” Shen Han Xin pursed her lips as she turned to look at Duan Mu Yan.
“Miss Meng Yan, if you are not hungry, can we have a meal after I introduce you to the Southern King?” Shen Hanxin’s voice was still as gentle and gentle as ever, causing the hearts of those who heard it to tremble. Duan Mu Yan nodded slightly before turning and sitting down at a side.
When Shen Hansheng walked into the main hall, he immediately saw Duan Mu Yan, who was seated at the side. Seeing that Duan Mu Yan was safe and sound, his heart, which had been suspended there for an entire night, also landed on the ground.
“Yan Er …” Shen Han Sheng hurried over to Duan Mu Yan, but was stopped by Shen Han.
“Fourth brother came at the right time. This is the esteemed guest of the mansion, Lady Meng Yan. This is …” Before Shen Hanxin could finish his sentence, Shen Hansheng had already tightly gripped his wrist in his hand.
“Shen Hanxin, listen up. This king has promised you that from now on, I will not fight with you for the position of crown prince. As long as you hand Meng Yan over to me, I will immediately take her away and never return to the Southern Yue!” Her low voice was filled with determination and decisiveness, these words caused everyone to be shocked. By the side, Xia Hou Yu’s hands were clenched into fists, and from the moment Shen Hansheng stepped into the main hall, she had not even looked at her. Now, for that bitch, he was even willing to give up her own identity! How could she endure this? Leng Bing Xin and Ye Li, who appeared together with him, already knew that this would be the result. However, when they heard Shen Hansheng personally state the decision, they still couldn’t help but sigh. After a few years of intense competition and victory was already in sight, they gave up on Duan Mu Yan.
Even Shen Hanxin was surprised. He could feel Shen Hansheng’s love for Meng Yan, but he never imagined it would reach such a depth. What was the difference between this and the Second Imperial Brother losing himself to his mother? If it was before, he might have considered Shen Hansheng’s suggestion, but now, he was truly unwilling to let go of Meng Yan. That was because he realized that he had started to like this woman a little, not just a little.
In the entire main hall, only Duan Muyan was the calmest. Although Shen Hansheng’s words sounded touching, she was unable to judge the intentions of the person in front of her. She did not have the image of this person in her mind, so if she really loved him, she should at least feel it, right?
“Fourth Brother is really infatuated with me, but unfortunately you got the wrong person. The person in front of you right now is not the Meng Yan you speak of, but a noble guest of this king. Moreover, this king’s friend does not seem to be very close to Fourth Brother!” Shen Hanxin opened his mouth as a glint of light flashed across his eyes.
“What do you mean? Meng Yan? Are you all right? Did he make things difficult for you? ” Shen Hansheng’s eyes turned cold as he let go of Shen Hanxin’s wrist, quickly rushing to stand in front of Duan Mu Yan. Such a close distance caused Duan Muyan to feel extremely uncomfortable. She subconsciously retreated as a trace of vigilance flashed past his eyes. At this moment, Shen Hanxin did not try to stop Shen Hansheng. He too wanted to know Meng Yan’s reaction.
“Greetings, King Han.” Duan Moyan bowed respectfully, maintaining a certain distance from Shen Hansheng. Looking at Shen Hansheng’s questioning and concerned gaze, Duan Moyan suddenly felt as though something was blocking her chest, suffocating her.
“You … Don’t you recognize me? I am Shen Hansheng! ” Shen Hansheng looked at Duan Muyan in astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief. He had never thought that there would be a day where they would be able to meet without ever knowing each other.
“Perhaps I do, but Meng Yan has already lost her memory. There are some things that I really can’t recall, so I ask King Han to give Meng Yan some time.” The expression in Duan Mu Yan’s eyes was as tranquil as a lake as she spoke humbly and respectfully.
“Why? Why is this happening? ” Shen Hansheng’s eyes were filled with despair. Why couldn’t she remember him when he gave up everything and wanted to be together with Duan Mu Yan? Noticing how agitated Shen Hansheng was, Shen Hanxin stepped forward and stood in front of Duan Mu Yan.
“This is called unpredictable. Actually, Fourth Brother doesn’t need to care too much about this. If Fourth Brother is really that important in Lady Meng Yan’s heart, I believe Lady Meng Yan will not forget this.” “Perhaps Fourth Brother can give Lady Meng Yan some time. When Lady Meng Yan thinks of something, I will go to the Duke’s Mansion and inform Fourth Brother. How about it?” Shen Hanxin’s eyes shone with a harmless light, but in the next second, Shen Hansheng had already tightly grabbed his collar.
“What did you do to Meng Yan?” Her cold voice was laced with a bone-chilling chilliness. Shen Hansheng’s gaze was cold, as if he wanted to tear the man in front of him apart. Shen Hanxin spread his arms, his lips curled up slightly, his eyes filled with innocence.
“I swear to the heavens, I have never done anything to harm Lady Meng Yan. If Fourth Brother doesn’t believe me, you can ask Lady Meng Yan directly!” Shen Han looked at Duan Mu Yan for help, his face filled with helplessness.
“I hope that Duke Han will let go of Duke Mu. At least, in Meng Yan’s memories, the Mu King did not do anything that would let Meng Yan down.” Although she still did not know the current situation, she was afraid that if not for the appearance of Shen Hanxin, she would have long been forced to become a woman of the Emperor or have her blood splattered on Yi Qing Pavilion.
“Meng Yan!” Your highness has not slept for you all night, so how can you say such heartless words? ” Leng Bingxin stepped forward, her eyes filled with grief. In her opinion, Duan Moyan had not lost her memories at all. It was clear that she was avenging her master because of Duan Jingyang’s death.
Meng Yan only knows that she needs time to remember. If she remembers, then Meng Yan is willing to apologize for her abrupt actions earlier. If she does not recall, then Meng Yan really does not know who is responsible for Meng Yan’s current situation. Looking at the various expressions in front of her, Duan Mu Yan felt that her heart was completely empty. She could feel the sadness and despair in the eyes of the so-called Frigid King, and she felt a little depressed in her heart, but what could this mean? At this moment, Duan Mu Yan knew that she had to take every step steadily in order to not be used by others for no reason.
“Meng Yan, no matter what happens, first go back to the manor with me. Even if you are searching for famous doctors everywhere, I will cure your amnesia! “Follow This King!” Shen Hansheng suddenly released Shen Hanxin as he stepped forward to pull Duan Mu Yan up. At almost the same time, Duan Mu Yan subconsciously retreated, looking at the man before his with a vigilant gaze.
