The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

After he finished speaking, Runanji reached out without hesitation and grabbed Meng Jinyao's arm, pulling her hard and trying to walk out.

However, Meng Jinyao was obviously unwilling to be taken away like this. She struggled desperately to break free from Run Nanji's restraints, but this time Run Nanji seemed to have made up his mind and did not give her any room to resist.

Although Runanji looks gentle and refined like a weak scholar on weekdays, he is a man after all and has certain natural advantages in physical strength.

Therefore, when he really got serious, Meng Jinyao could not resist him even if she tried her best. After a while, she gradually became unable to cope with it and could only let Run Nanji drag her out the door.

Seeing that she was about to be dragged to the door by Run Nanji, Meng Jinyao raised her hand and slapped Run Nanji hard in the face in desperation.

However, what she didn't expect was that this time Runanji didn't show any intention of condoning her. He reacted quickly and grabbed her slender wrist tightly with his backhand.

"Miss Meng, please respect yourself! Don't think that I will tolerate you again and again just because you are a woman. If you dare to move again, don't blame me for not being polite to you!" Run Nanji's face darkened and he stared at Meng Jinyao sharply and warned her.

At this moment, he had completely changed his usual gentle and elegant image, and exuded an inviolable aura of majesty.

Meng Jinyao was not the kind of woman who would be easily frightened. Her face was stern, and her eyes revealed a hint of ferocity. She stared closely at Lord Run in front of her and said sternly, "Lord Run, you are so arrogant that you said you would be rude to me! Well, then tell me, how exactly are you going to be rude to me?"

At this moment, Meng Jinyao's face was full of contempt and disdain, as if she didn't take Run Nanji in front of her seriously at all.

This attitude made Runanji very angry because he felt that his dignity as a man was greatly insulted.

Runanji's face turned gloomy in an instant, veins bulged on his forehead, he gritted his teeth, clenched his fists tightly, and his body trembled slightly.

However, before she could react, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed Meng Jinyao's lips hard without hesitation.

Although Runanji's cheeks were already swollen at this time, he still had no intention of backing down.

He hugged Meng Jinyao tightly, ignoring the strange looks from others, and vented his anger and dissatisfaction in his heart.

At this moment, Runanji suddenly let go of his hand, turned his head slightly, stared into Meng Jinyao's beautiful but cold eyes, and said slowly: "Miss Meng, don't you know? The emperor is not the only man in the world. Why are you so stubborn and only think about the person who doesn't like you?"

Meng Jinyao's heart suddenly began to contract. An indescribable feeling that had never appeared before instantly crept into her heart. She was really terrified, and even every nerve in her body was tense.

She herself couldn't explain why she was so irritable and restless. She just felt as if countless ants were gnawing at her heart.

"Master Run, even if a toad wants to eat swan meat, there has to be a limit, right?"

Such vicious words would undoubtedly hurt a man's self-esteem, but surprisingly, Runanji was indifferent to it and still had that unfathomable smile on his face.

But at this moment, Meng Jinyao's mind was already in a mess, as if a pool of originally calm spring water was stirred up by someone, causing ripples that could not be restored to calm for a long time.

Her originally beautiful face was distorted by anger, her eyes were wide open, flashing a fierce light, staring at Run Nanji, gritting her teeth and saying, "Humph! Let me tell you, even if all the men in this world died, even if I really couldn't get married for the rest of my life, I would never fall in love with someone like you! So, I advise Lord Run to give up this idea as soon as possible!"

Before she finished her words, Meng Jinyao turned and left like a gust of wind, her steps hurried and flustered, as if there was a wolf chasing her.

Because she was too impatient, she almost tripped over the threshold, but even so, she rushed forward without looking back and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

Looking at Meng Jinyao's receding back, Run Nanji was not angry at all. Instead, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

To be honest, although this lady has a hot-tempered and arrogant personality, she is not an unforgivable person by nature.

With his means and abilities, it would not be difficult to deal with her.

However, this is a critical moment. If we take tough measures against her, it may cause a series of unnecessary troubles and disputes at this juncture.

Thinking of this, Runanji couldn't help but secretly thankful that he had remained calm and restrained just now.

At this moment, Runanji suddenly felt a burning pain on his face.

He subconsciously reached out and gently touched the injured part. It was just such a slight touch, but he couldn't help but grimace in pain.

"Hiss... This girl is so cruel!" He took a deep breath and cursed inwardly.

However, Runanji knew that time was running out and did not dare to delay at all, so he hurriedly walked towards the inner room.

As soon as you step into the inner room, what comes into view is the emperor sitting leisurely and happily beside the bed.

Seeing this, Runanji was shocked and quickly knelt on his knees, saying respectfully: "Your Majesty, I failed to do my job well, which led to the omission of this matter. I deserve death. Please punish me!"

When the emperor heard this, he did not show any anger on his face. Instead, he smiled slightly and looked at Run Nanji who was kneeling on the ground with a gentle gaze. He said slowly: "My dear Run, please get up quickly and don't blame yourself so much."

"I think you have handled the matter very well this time."

"You know, this place is not the territory of our Great Jin, and Miss Meng is really difficult to deal with. But in my opinion, the way you came up with is ingenious and effective!"

After saying this, the emperor stopped talking and began to look at Runanji in front of him with great interest.

Runanji had a good appearance, with skin as white and delicate as white jade, eyebrows and eyes as picturesque, and delicate and beautiful facial features. He could truly be called a handsome man.

With such an outstanding appearance, she would be extremely eye-catching even in a crowd.

At this time, Ling Yan became more and more delighted the more he looked at him, and he admired Run Nanji more and more.

However, his scrutinizing gaze made Runanji feel uneasy, and he felt an indescribable strange atmosphere spreading.

Runanji swallowed his saliva involuntarily and said calmly, "Your Majesty, if you have any important matters that require me to do, just tell me. I will do my best and will never let you down!"

The look in his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate a person's soul, staring straight at him, making him feel creepy and uncomfortable all over.

The feeling of being stared at like this was really a little difficult for him to bear.

At this time, the emperor, who was sitting on a high throne, cast his eyes on him standing below. Seeing that he behaved so tactfully, well-behaved and obedient, he could not help but nod secretly in his heart and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

The emperor opened his red lips and said slowly, "Master Run, in your opinion, is it really that simple that Meng Jinyao came all the way to me today just to make amends to me?"

As soon as serious matters were mentioned, the originally slightly relaxed atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

When Runanji heard this, his face changed slightly, his brows knitted tightly, and he bowed and asked, "Your Majesty, please forgive my ignorance. I don't know what you mean by this."

The emperor shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "My dear Minister Run, you don't know! It's been a while since Miss Meng's incident. If she really wanted to apologize, why did she wait until now? It just so happened that she hurried here after what happened last night..."

Having said this, the emperor paused intentionally, as if he was observing Runanji's reaction.

Runanji was a man of great intelligence. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized something and said with a more serious expression, "Your Majesty, do you suspect that Miss Meng was sent by City Lord Meng to come here to test you?"

The emperor did not directly deny Runanji's speculation, but nodded slightly to indicate his agreement.

Then he continued to analyze: "Yes, that City Lord Meng has always been shrewd and calculating. Seeing that the banquet is the day after tomorrow, he must have some hidden conspiracy."

"So I sent Miss Meng here to test my strength, especially the condition of my dragon body."

Runanji was horrified, "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then...what should we do?"

"Notify Lord Zhang and make the necessary preparations. If there is unrest in Nanjiang City, have him send troops directly." At this moment, murderous intent flashed in Ling Yan's eyes. He would not let go of anyone who prevented him from reuniting with Xue Jinhua.

Runanji nodded, but there was still one thing in his heart that worried him, "Your Majesty, what should we do next? Miss Meng came here to test the waters. If she doesn't get any substantive news, I'm afraid she will come again."

He had just been slapped in the face. If he were to be slapped again, he would lose all his dignity.

But Ling Yan seemed to think that the matter was not big enough, and just smiled, "It doesn't matter, the next thing is more troublesome."

More trouble?

While Runanji was stunned, Ling Yan had already flashed out the door as fast as a gust of wind.

All I heard was that cold and unquestionable voice: "I need to go to the other courtyard today, and the rest of the things here will be handed over to you. Remember, don't let anyone notice, otherwise, Lord Run, your life may be in danger!"

Before he finished his words, Ling Yan's figure disappeared under the window frame like a ghost in the blink of an eye, as if he had never appeared before.

When Runanji finally came to his senses and looked at the empty doorway, he couldn't help but touch his cheek subconsciously, and then the corners of his mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably.

I secretly complained in my heart: "This... What should I do?"

When he thought about facing the brother and sister from the Meng family, Runnanji felt overwhelmed.

The emperor was relieved to leave in such a graceful manner, but leaving him alone to deal with these two troublemakers was really miserable.

Especially the Meng family brother and sister, who kept making trouble in various ways all day long, and their difficulty was beyond imagination.

Runanji sometimes even felt that dealing with them was more difficult than taking the imperial examination, where thousands of people competed to pass the single-plank bridge.

However, despite feeling helpless, Runanji knew that he could not disobey the emperor's order.

Since the emperor has entrusted this matter to him, there is no reason for him to refuse no matter what.

After taking a deep breath, Runanji forced himself to stay awake, straightened his back, sat steadily on the chair, and waited quietly for the arrival of the Meng brothers and sisters.

As for Meng Jinyao, the more she thought about it after returning, the angrier she became. All she could think of was Run Nanji going against her.

She thought carefully for a moment and didn't notice that Meng Jincheng had entered the house...
