“”Oh, right, This Prince almost forgot. Come with me.”
Li Hongyuan stood up and reached out to push Jiang Ning’s wheelchair.
Jiang Ning grabbed onto her Third Brother’s thigh: “Where are you taking me?”
Jiang Yi immediately protected his sister.
Li Hongyuan bent down, gently touched Jiang Ning’s cheek, and spoke softly, “Behave, don’t be scared. Aren’t you here to apologize? This Prince will take you to apologize in front of everyone. Prime Minister Jiang and Third Young Master wouldn’t want me to defy the edict, would they?”
Jiang Yi frowned, wanting to take action, but was stopped by Jiang Ruobai’s gaze.
Li Hongyuan broke Jiang Ning’s fingers from Jiang Yi’s thigh one by one.
“If you want to apologize, do it here. I’m not going out!” Jiang Ning said.
“That won’t do. If I don’t apologize in public, how can I show my sincerity?” Li Hongyuan smiled. “Or are you saying, Princess Consort, that you want me to carry you out?”
Jiang Ning tried to stand up, but Li Hongyuan held her shoulder down, softly laughing, “The exquisite embroidered shoes on the Princess Consort’s feet should not be dirtied by the dust on the ground.”
Jiang Ning felt a chill down her spine as he blew into her ear.
Disgusting.
As expected, Li Hongyuan was sinister and cunning.
He would do anything to achieve his goals.
Although Li Hongyuan only threatened her without actually trying to hold her, he eventually succeeded in pushing her out of the Flower Hall and in front of hundreds of people who were beating drums and gongs.
“These are all the people of Chang’an City. Should this be considered ‘in public’?” Li Hongyuan asked.
“Fine, you say.” Jiang Ning had nothing to say.
“Good.” Li Hongyuan turned around, faced her, and looked deeply into her eyes as he said word by word, “Ningning, I’m sorry. Everything is my fault, I shouldn’t have angered you. I truly realize my mistake. Please come back home with me.”
The crowd below cheered, beating drums and gongs, nearly deafening Jiang Ning’s ears.
“Enough.” Jiang Ning could bear it no more, “I’ll go back with you.”
“That’s great.” Li Hongyuan held her hand, “You don’t know how much I’ve missed you.”
Jiang Ning:
She could never have imagined that the Prince of Yu would go to such extremes.
For a prince to swallow his pride like this, doing such things in front of ordinary people, one could see how heartless he was.
If he could be so ruthless to himself, he could naturally be more ruthless to others.
Jiang Ning looked back and saw Jiang Ruobai and his son walking out.
Jiang Ruobai spoke unhurriedly, “Your Highness, with such sincerity, we can only accept. However, since Seventh Sister is not well and we need to consider the child, let her stay at the mansion for a while longer.”
Li Hongyuan narrowed his eyes, “Today, This Prince must take her back. This is the Imperial Edict. Is the Jiang Family planning to rebel?”
Whispers spread among the hundreds of people below.
Jiang Ning frowned.
The Prince of Yu would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Just then, a clear child’s voice came—
“Little Aunt!”
It was Li Tingqian.
Behind him were seven or eight eunuchs and Imperial Guards.
He ran over, grabbed Jiang Ning’s hand, and happily said, “Little Aunt, I can come to see you again.”
With the arrival of the emperor’s eldest grandson, things were getting interesting.
Jiang Ruobai and his son exchanged glances.
Jiang Ning smiled and asked, “Xiaoqian, how did you get here?”
“I came to take Little Aunt home! Grandfather said that I can even stay overnight in the Prince of Yu’s Mansion. Little Aunt, can you read stories to me?”
His eyes sparkled like stars.
Jiang Ning looked at her father.
Jiang Ruobai frowned.
The Emperor, fearing that the Jiang Family would renege, had sent the eldest imperial grandson as well.
This eldest imperial grandson was his attitude.
Jiang Ning had to go back today, whether she wanted to or not..
