Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Princess An Qing's tone was full of questioning, and deep within her sharp and cold eyes was a hint of bloodthirsty madness.

It was not her wish to marry into Wulan and become the Queen of Wulan.

Duke Huiguo, as the emperor's cousin, clearly knew how she felt, but he chose to hurt her at this moment, clearly not taking what happened in the past to heart.

Although Princess An Qing had long known that Duke Huiguo was as cold-hearted as the emperor, she still felt cold all over when she heard his words.

She seemed to have returned to the scene when she was isolated, abandoned by her relatives, and bullied by her so-called husband.

She wanted to pull out a sharp dagger and stab Duke Huiguo so hard that he would never mention his shameful past again.

"An Qing, that's not what I meant. Don't misunderstand me."

Princess An Qing's change of mood was too obvious. Duke Huiguo noticed it keenly and spoke immediately.

He looked at Princess An Qing tenderly, his eyes full of tolerance as if he was indulging his own daughter. He wished he could put all the treasures in the world in front of her so that she would be worry-free and not remember the tragic things.

"Duke Huiguo, you and the emperor are indeed cousins."

Listening to Duke Huiguo's words, Princess An Qing did not insist on giving in, but just said something in an inexplicable tone.

After she finished speaking, she sat up straight and sighed: "No wonder you are so irritating. I think it is because you are so outspoken that the emperor is unwilling to use you."

"And you know what kind of person the emperor is, so you deliberately behave yourself in an unrestrained manner to avoid the emperor's reckoning with you."

"To be honest, among those who accompanied the emperor in suffering, you were the only one who saw through the emperor and gained his true trust despite his unpredictable temper."

"It's a pity that the emperor is old. Not only has his mind become unclear, but he is also confused. If you don't tuck your tail between your legs, he might uproot you."

"So you indulged your family and also indulged Chen Mingyue. But Chen Mingyue was not a smart person. She hated Chen Changli and his wife and tried every means to cause trouble for them. That's why she was killed by Prince Rong outside the general's mansion."

Princess An Qing said this and looked at Chen Changli deliberately.

Seeing that he remained calm, as if he had no doubts about why she and Duke Huiguo had brought up the matter, Princess An Qing raised the corners of her mouth slightly in a sarcastic arc, but then suppressed it in an instant.

"Although Chen Mingyue's death was her own fault, it is a fact that she died outside the general's mansion. Chen Changli and his wife must take responsibility for this matter. Duke Huiguo, as Chen Mingyue's husband, you should also seek justice for her. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a shame for the one-year relationship between you two?"

As soon as she said this, Chen Changli suddenly looked up at her.

But seeing that she had a smile on her lips and her eyes were fixed on him, as if waiting for his reaction, Chen Changli's voice was low, and seemed to carry a hint of cold sneer.

"Is this why you asked someone to bring me here? Duke Huiguo is not you, and he is not stupid. It is impossible for him to take revenge on me for a meaningless woman just because of your casual words."

"You are not him, how can you be so sure that she won't do that?" Princess An Qing asked deliberately.

Chen Changli said indifferently, "Because not everyone in this world is as eager for chaos as you are, and not everyone hates Your Majesty as much as you do, so I am sure that Duke Huiguo will not be like this."

After that, he was silent for a while and then said, "Unless you give him irresistible benefits, can you give them to him now?"

"I haven't received anything. No, I am loyal to His Majesty and will never betray him. Chen Changli, please don't wrongly accuse me."

Princess An Qing did not react when she heard Chen Changli's words, but Duke Huiguo stood up quickly as if he had suffered a great humiliation and began to defend himself at a rapid pace.

He seemed very worried that Chen Changli would misunderstand him. After he finished his defense, he quickly stared at Princess An Qing and spoke with a very unfriendly expression.

"I came to see you because I wanted to know how you were doing. In other words, I still care about you and want you to be safe. But I didn't expect you to try to make me bear the crime of betraying His Majesty."

"An Qing, I know you hate His Majesty, but His Majesty had no choice. Why can't you understand His Majesty? You have to involve me in this so that His Majesty will hate me."

After saying this in one breath, Duke Huiguo's breathing became a little rapid. He couldn't help but calm down and slowly breathe in the fresh air.

After half a cup of tea, he recovered and looked better.

However, compared to before, his face was pale, as if all his energy and spirit were gone, and only a last glimmer of light showed that he was still alive.

Princess An Qing looked at Duke Huiguo like this, her eyes piercing him like a knife, as if she wanted to completely scrape off his current fragility and reveal the mottled, rotten filth inside.

Her gaze was too sharp for Duke Huiguo to ignore and he could only meet her gaze calmly.

The two men stared at each other for a long time, as if waiting for the other to bow his head first, and then they would stand on the moral high ground to make the person who bowed his head feel unbearable guilt.

As time passed, Princess An Qing raised her lips slightly and broke the silence first: "I don't have such thoughts, it's you who thinks so. Duke Huiguo, I think your thoughts are even harder to guess than His Majesty's. I think His Majesty values ​​you so much, maybe because you are too cunning and know how to protect yourself."

Reaching out to touch her hair, Princess An Qing glanced at Chen Changli and smiled gently, "Although Chen Changli has not had much contact with you, he is very smart. Maybe he has understood the real you through some of your attitudes, which is why he doesn't take Chen Mingyue's death to heart."

Seeing that she still hadn't given up her attempt to provoke him, Chen Changli suddenly found it a little funny.

He also laughed out loud. For a moment, Princess An Qing looked at him angrily. If her body had not allowed it, she might have turned into a beast and pounced on Chen Changli, biting his neck and biting him to death.

Chen Changli felt her fierce gaze and looked at her without hesitation.

Facing her resentful eyes, Chen Changli did not stop smiling, and only said: "Are you angry, Princess? Actually, my words are not pleasant to hear, and you are right to be angry, but you should know why my words are not pleasant to hear. If you were more restrained, maybe I would be happy to listen to your nonsense right now."

Before coming to see Princess An Qing, he thought that Princess An Qing was up to something again and was ready to do whatever she could to plot against him. He never expected that Princess An Qing was unwilling to even hide her malicious intent in front of him.

Not only were the words blunt, but the malice staring at him was so intense that it almost became tangible and impossible to ignore in the slightest.

Chen Changli couldn't understand why Princess An Qing had such strong malice towards him. Could it be that someone had slandered her after she woke up?
