It's really hard to swallow
Chu Jiangnan didn't speak, but his face showed no sign of improvement. He still stared at Qing Lan and said in a deep voice: "Are you talking nonsense just now, slandering my future princess?"
Qinglan took a slightly step back, and had never seen Prince Nan's face so cold. He wanted to speak but did not dare to, and still looked at Chu Dingbei with a begging gaze.
Seeing her so aggrieved, Chu Dingbei felt pity for a moment and his eyes fell on Qiqi. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's just that the Seventh Princess's reputation in the past was not very good. Qinglan said this when she heard others say it. Fifth Princess, no wonder this..."
"Shut up." Before he finished speaking, Chu Jiangnan said in a deep voice, his voice was colder and harder than before: "The crime of slandering the future princess Nan is unforgivable. I ordered you to kneel down to apologize to my future princess!"
But he was a princess from the South. She was not so arrogant in front of their Chu State. He asked Qinglan to apologize, and no one would dare to say anything about him.
Qinglan was shocked, and two tears immediately hung in the corner of her eyes. She secretly looked up at Chu Jiangnan, and then hurriedly grabbed Chu Dingbei's neck of clothes, looking like she was about to cry.
Chu Dingbei was panicked. He knew that he had said something badly, which made the emperor even more angry, but he could not watch his future wife suffer so much.
He looked at Chu Jiangnan, took a deep breath before saying, "Emperor Brother, Qing Lan is ignorant, the emperor is apologizing to you for her."
As he said that, he really wanted to kneel down and apologize to him, but the target of his kneeling was Chu Jiangnan, not Qiqi, just because he didn't think he should kneel down Murong Qiqi.
Qiqi finally realized that when he knelt down, he raised his hand and held him back with an internal force. He walked to Chu Jiangnan and looked up at him and said softly:
"I'm just a little girl, why should I have the same knowledge as her senior brother? My reputation in the past is really bad. Perhaps Princess Qinglan has just heard a lot of rumors. In the future, she knows what to say and what not to say."
"Yes... I just listened to the rumors for a while and never again. Prince Nan please spare me." Qing Lan was really panicked now and came to Chu Dingbei. Seeing that Chu Dingbei dared not be disrespectful to Prince Nan who had no real power. How could she be arrogant if she was just a princess from neighboring countries?
I thought that with Prince Bei here, he would never let himself be wronged. Who knew that in front of his fifth brother, he didn't even dare to vent his anger. He was simply incompetent!
Holding Chu Dingbei's long arm, Qinglan looked sad: "Prince Nan, I will never dare again, please forgive me."
The princess of a country acted so sad in front of them, which was indeed pitiful. If Qiqi had not met the entanglement between her and Prince Hai just now, she might have pity for her.
However, now she just doesn't want to make things difficult for Chu Dingbei, and she doesn't pity her.
She pulled Chu Jiangnan's clothes again, and she still said softly: "Senior Brother, I'm hungry. Didn't you bring me here to enjoy the delicious food? Let's taste today's spoils?"
Chu Jiangnan's eyes swept across Qinglan's face and finally fell on Chu Dingbei's face. His voice was still cold, but it was at least a little softer than before:.
"Since she will be your future wife, you should discipline her well, and say whatever you should and what you should not say. Let her think clearly and understand clearly. Don't let me hear any words slander Qiqi, otherwise, I will never let you go."
"I understand. I will definitely teach her well. Please rest assured, brother-in-law." Chu Dingbei had never seen such a harsh side of his elder brother, and was indeed scared for a moment.
It was not until Qiqi came to him and handed it back to him that he came to his senses. He glanced at Xuemao, then looked at Qiqi again, with his thin lips slightly moving, and he didn't know what to say.
Qiqi smiled slightly and said, "You are such a rough person, and you probably don't know how to take care of this little thing. I like it very much anyway. Why not give it to me? Just pretend that Princess Qinglan misunderstood the rumors and slander my apology?"
Chu Dingbei really didn't know what to do with this snow cat. Now that he heard her say this, he nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll have to take care of the snow caterer in the future."
"It's better to obey your orders than respect." Qiqi held the snow cat back, held it in his arms, and looked down at it, but the pity in his eyes could not be hidden.
Chu Dingbei knew that Xuemaoer would definitely be better than Qinglan to follow her. Since Qinglan didn't want it, I'll give it to her.
But I felt a little aggrieved, but thinking about it, as long as someone cherishes it, it would be useless to get this little thing back so much effort.
Chu Jiangnan and Qiqi walked towards the seat together. Until the two of them walked away, Qing Lan next to him stomped her feet and said angrily: "You said you would protect me and would not let me suffer any grievances, but why did you let your royal brother bully me just now? And that woman..."
She bit her lip and looked at Qiqi's back with a resentment: "Isn't it just a ill-clean torn shoe? What qualifications does she have to say such things in front of me and even accuse me of being ungrateful!"
"Qinglan..." Chu Dingbei was stunned and hurriedly said, "Murong Qiqi is not as unbearable as you think. I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. Don't say it anymore. I'll accompany you and we'll try the food we've hunted back today."
"Brother Bei, what do you mean? Do you even want to help Murong Qiqi bully me?" Qing Lan looked up at him, and two more tears suddenly appeared in the corner of her eyes: "In your heart, is Qing Lan even a bitch like this?"
"Qinglan, stop talking nonsense." He felt depressed by hearing nothing. Although he didn't like Murong Qiqi and his two emperor brothers, he was unhappy to describe her as a slut.
Although he does not like Murong Qiqi's temperament in this regard, she is still not bad, loyal, enthusiastic, and her heart.
Although she always said that she was not a good person, he could feel her kindness. It was really unbearable to scold a kind girl with the word "slutty woman".
"Qinglan, Murong Qiqi will be our fifth prince sister-in-law. You can't be disrespectful to her." He said, his voice sinking unconsciously.
"You know how to protect other women and bully me with them!" The two tears in the corner of Qinglan's eyes slid down like this. She bit her lip and said angrily: "I came here thousands of miles away just to see you, but you... are you treating me like this?"
"I don't mean that." Seeing her turning around and leaving, Chu Dingbei hurriedly chased her, and finally took her hand and said anxiously: "Qinglan, I really don't mean that. I have only you in my heart for so many years. What you should know is that I just want to marry you into the door."
"But you made me suffer such humiliation in front of others and be bullied by them."
"The Fifth Emperor is not bullying you, he is just protecting his wife, just like I protect your heart. Qinglan, if you get along well with Murong Qiqi in the future, you will all be the princess of Chu, and there will be more days to meet in the future." He advised.
"Who wants to get along well with her? I don't want it." Qinglan looked sideways and looked at Murong Qiqi who was sitting with Chu Jiangnan again, with resentment in his eyes.
This woman not only broke the good things of her and Brother Hai, but also got so pitiful to Prince Nan, and even Chu Dingbei was in her heart.
Such a woman staying in the royal family must be a threat to her. She cannot let her steal her own limelight, and cannot let her get more pity than herself!
But now, even Chu Dingbei seems to think she is a good person. If she continues to make trouble, she will seem ignorant.
She lowered her eyebrows, wiped away her tears with grievance, and said softly: "It's really like this outside. Everyone knows that she has countless men, and the matter is not what I said. Brother Bei, you should know that I am a pure and innocent girl. I don't want to be with such a person."
Chu Dingbei's throat was blocked, and he wanted to say many things but couldn't say them.
Murong Qiqi's behavior in this regard is indeed not so likable. It is understandable that Qinglan doesn't want to be with her. His Qinglan is the holiest woman in the world, and no stain should appear in her life.
He let out a sigh of relief, let go of her hand, lowered his eyes and looked at the tears at the corners of her eyes, and said softly: "If you don't have it, don't be there. In the future, we will live our own lives and ignore them."
At most, he wouldn't take Qinglan when he went to the Nanwang Mansion. Qinglan didn't have to get along well with them. Everyone has their own lives, so there is no need to force him: "Come on, I'll take you to have delicious food. I'll find some exquisite gifts for you. What do you like? You can tell me."
Qinglan looked up at him, and when he saw him please him so much, he finally felt better.
After wiped her tears, she muttered her red lips and said, "I heard that the Pearl Princess has a blue sea cloud pearl in her hand. I heard them say that the bead is very beautiful, and I want one too."
"Okay, I'll ask you for someone in the future." Bihai Yunzhu, the Fourth Emperor's brother, probably there was still there. He was thinking in his heart that as long as she was happy, he would give it to her no matter what she wanted.
After hearing what he said, Qing Lan finally burst into tears and laughed, held his long arm and walked with him, and became that gentle and lovely little girl again.
When Qiqi looked up, she saw the two of them walking towards the opposite seat with their hands in their arms. She sighed lightly, not knowing what she was thinking. She just hoped that Qinglan could really let go of Chu Sihai and live a good life with Chu Dingbei. It was obvious that her brother-in-law really liked her.
"What? Are you still unhappy?" Chu Jiangnan next to her cut the barbecue into small pieces and delivered it to her.
Qiqi took it, looked up at him, and smiled and said, "How could I be so stingy? I just think it's a little girl who is ignorant."
After saying that, he lowered his head and took the barbecue into his mouth and chewed it gently, as if he really didn't care at all.
