"Do not be so courteous, Aunt Ninth Aunt."

Yan Shuo's voice was also very pleasant to hear. In short, these Yan Clan members had done something to save the Milky Way in their past life.

He had good looks, a good background, and even his voice was pleasant to hear.

Only, the way Yan Shuo called her still made her feel a little awkward.

Why call her aunt?

In any case, she was still an 18-year-old yellow flower daughter. She really couldn't accept having a nephew around her age.

The most important thing was that this was not the problem. The problem was that she really did not want to have anything to do with that bitch Yan Yuan.

"Thank you, your majesty."

After Liu Ruoqing muttered in his heart, he still sat down obediently.

Yan Shuo's eyes did not change as he sized up Liu Ruoqing's face. Why did this well-mannered Aunt Ninth Aunt in front of him make him feel that something was amiss?

Yan Yuan also noticed Yan Shuo's gaze that was fixated on Liu Ruoqing. A faint unhappiness flashed across his heart, and the gaze that was fixated on Yan Shuo turned a little colder.

Sensing Yan Yuan's unhappy gaze, the smile on Kaiser's face stiffened, and immediately tried to change the topic. His gaze fell on the silent Yan Jue, "Eighth royal uncle, what's wrong?"

"I can't even tell that, eighth brother was obviously plotted against by someone using dirty tricks."

What answered him was Liu Ruoqing's voice full of contempt. This contempt, was naturally not directed at Yan Shuo, but towards Yan Yuan.

As her voice fell, she casually slapped Yan Jue's back with her palm, causing Yan Jue's originally stiff body to instantly move.

Although this action appeared to be casual, it caused everyone present to be a little surprised.

This xieqing princess also knew martial arts?

Lord King Yu was obviously hit by the Prince Jing just now, but she did not expect that with a light pat, his acupoints were opened.

Everyone looked at Liu Ruoqing with their eyes wide open.

Other than the servants, a few people at the table also looked at Liu Ruoqing with strange gazes.

Especially Yan Yuan, for him to be able to easily remove all the acupoints on Yan Jue's body, it was definitely impossible for him to not have a certain level of attainment in martial arts.

Then, he recalled the quick and agile movements he had seen yesterday at the Taste Pavilion ?

Yan Yuan's gaze quietly stopped on Liu Ruoqing's body and narrowed his eyes as if he had thought of something.

Liu Tianxin, looks like ? It's not that simple.

Yan Shuo also looked at Liu Ruoqing with astonishment for a while before withdrawing his gaze with a faint smile.

Looks like Ninth Imperial Uncle met her opponent. Just now, he really didn't misjudge her, this Aunt Ninth Aunt isn't as obedient as she looks.

"Sister-in-law, you should treat your royal brother better. Your royal brother assure you, in the future, in the Easternum, if any of the bastards dare to bully you, your royal brother will definitely not take revenge on your behalf."

With these four words, Yan Jue emphasized on his tone of voice and glared fiercely at Yan Yuan who was casually drinking from a cup of wine.

Damned Lao Jiu, this king will remember this debt. In the future, let's see how you, this wangfei, will deal with you.

When Liu Ruoqing heard what he said, the corner of his mouth hooked up in a complacent manner, his eyes filled with a smile.

He really did not expect her to find another ally with such a casual action. Furthermore, she was even vowing to defend her as if her life depended on it.

"Thank you, eighth brother."

In order to get closer to Yan Jue, Liu Ruoqing automatically changed his address to be more intimate.

Eighth Brother ?

The corner of Yan Jue's lips twitched, "Sister-in-law, can you change your name?"

Yan Jue was speechless, could he say the words "eighth brother", make him sound like a bird?

"Why do you want to change it? I think it's pretty good, so close."

Liu Ruoqing did not think too much and directly opened his mouth, causing the Prince Jing beside him, whose face was not well to begin with, to turn sullen once more.

Eighth brother?

He hadn't called her so close, but she had gotten to know him so quickly.

Seeing the communication between Liu Ruoqing and his gaze, Yan Yuan finally could not bear to continue watching.

The cup in his hand was put down onto the table heavily, making a sound that would shock people. Everyone's gaze turned towards Yan Yuan at the same time.

"Liu Tianxin, behave yourself for this king. Where are you looking?"

"Huh?"

Is our Prince Jing jealous?

Yan Jue leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms against his chest as he watched the show. He didn't think that this Ninth Brother girl would let him suffer a loss in front of the Ninth Brother.

In the next second, a few low sobbing sounds echoed in the large hall of Longevity Palace.

"Why is Your Highness being so fierce towards me? Is there anything you can't say?"

Her eyes instantly filled with tears. With such a pitiful and innocent look, it caused people to feel pity for her. Even the sullen Yan Yuan was stunned for half a second.

Liu Ruoqing's voice began to grow louder and louder until it reached the point of bursting into tears.

I'm also raised by my parents, the father treats me like a treasure, I'm not even comparable to grass in front of you, wu ~ ~ on the first day of marriage you abandoned me, and even made a dog pay respects to me, making me the laughingstock of the entire Jindu City, how can I continue to live in this Easternum, wuu ~ ~ my days cannot go by anymore ~ ~

The empress dowager didn't know if Liu Ruoqing was pretending to cry or if he was really crying, but when she looked at her red-rimmed eyes, her heart ached so much that she frowned.

Her eyes that looked at Yan Yuan unhappily a few times was full of reproach.

Yan Jue also looked like he was watching a good show. He had long said that this Ninth Brother was not easy to deal with, this performance was exactly what he wanted.

However, wouldn't his acting be a bit exaggerated?

Liu Ruoqing felt that his acting skills were excellent.

At the very least, she had managed to fool the empress dowager. Seeing her wronged appearance, her heart ached to the point of almost tearing up.

"Good child, don't cry anymore. Don't worry, with Wailing Home here, Lao Jiu won't be able to bully you even a little. In the future, if you suffer any grievances in Prince Jing's Mansion, come over and tell Wailing Home about it."

The empress dowager caressed Liu Ruoqing's back in pain as she looked at Yan Yuan reproachfully.

It was fine if she did not appear at the wedding ceremony, but she even brought a dog to worship Tian Xin. Now, she still had the nerve to bully others in her Longevity Palace.

The empress dowager had given birth to Yan Shuo, this kind of son, but she couldn't have a daughter just because she wanted to take her.

Although she was his sister-in-law, she was around the same age as Yan Shuo. Naturally, she treated Yan Shuo as her daughter and when she saw that she was crying so hard, her heart ached.

Yan Yuan had always been a little sullen, but now that he was ridiculed by this woman in such an exaggerated manner, the flames in his heart couldn't be ignited for a moment.
