"Your Highness, don't say another word!"
Beside her, Shuang Xi continuously tugged at her sleeves. "Your Highness, what's wrong with you today? You've never spoken to the Regent like this before. "
"Can't rest in peace?"
The man's crimson lips twitched slightly, forming a cold arc. His deep eyes looked in the direction of Diao Yang Palace. His lips parted slightly. "It's good that she can't rest in peace. This way, she can look at me forever."
"Mo Wushang, is there something wrong with your brain?!"
Hearing this, the man's tall figure suddenly stiffened. His entire person was stunned, and it took a long time for him to regain his senses.
"Your Highness, calm down! Calm down, Your Highness! "
Hearing Shen Yueji curse, Shuang Xi no longer cared about the rules. He hurriedly crawled up from the ground and hugged her. "Your Highness, think twice before you act! Ever since you entered the palace, you haven't cursed for many days! You can't curse! You're facing the Regent! "
She already wanted to cry but had no tears.
"What did you call me?"
Shen Yueji pushed Shuang Xi away, and faced him fearlessly. "The late Empress was not related to you when she was alive, and had never offended you. Why did you frame her like this? Or is it that you came to Diao Yang Palace today because you feel guilty towards her? Did you not explain for her? Prove her innocence? "
His cold gaze once again landed on her.
But this time, it was less cold, and more probing.
Mo Wushang stared at the exquisite face in front of him. "Who are you?"
These three cold words caused Shen Yueji to instantly swallow the words that were at the tip of her tongue.
That's right, her current identity was Shen Yueji, not Gu Yueqin.
Shen Yueji was in love with the Regent of Feng Country. The citizens of the capital knew this.
The late Empress had an affair with the Regent, and was drowned by Feng Jiuqing. As a young lady who was in love with Mo Wushang, in her heart, no one wished for Gu Yueqin's death more than her.
But now, in front of Mo Wushang, she actually questioned him so agitatedly, and even forced him to speak up for Gu Yueqin.
It was no wonder that the way he looked at her had changed so drastically.
Thinking of this, she covered her lips and suddenly coughed heavily. Her quick-witted eyes turned elsewhere, "Looking at the capital, I, Shen Yueji, am the only one who can chase after the regent for ten miles without feeling tired."
"Yes, yes, yes."
At the side, Double Happiness also nodded vigorously. "This servant can testify! Your Ladyship hasn't seen the Prince Regent for many days. Perhaps it's because she suddenly met the Prince Regent today that she's a little excited and incoherent. "
Excited?
Shen Yueji's face instantly darkened.
Mo Wushang pursed her lips as he took in her expression.
His probing disappeared, and only a thin layer of ice was left in his deep eyes.
"You're not related to her, so why are you suddenly speaking up for her?"
"Double happiness."
"Aye, Your Highness."
"Why is this consort speaking up for her?"
Double Happiness: "… Huh?"
"I'm asking you!"
"It's just that I suddenly realized that the Prince Regent isn't as outstanding as I thought. You're also a man of indomitable spirit, and you occupy half of Feng Country, but you framed a weak and innocent girl. This makes me somewhat suspicious of the Prince Regent's style. I even suspect if I was blind in the past, to actually fall for a sanctimonious hypocrite like you? "
The man's gaze was filled with danger, and Shen Yueji grew wary. She watched as the man walked closer to her, and suddenly, his cold hand strangled her neck.
