The people of Lingjiang Kingdom also opened their eyes wide, stunned by this sudden situation.

Lu Xiuyuan's face was as cold as frost, and he said to Ye Beimo in a cold voice: "I am the emperor of Lingjiang Kingdom, it is not your turn to say irresponsible things! If you dare to speak nonsense again, my dart will not only pierce the prince's shoulder!"

Ye Beimo's eyes turned red with hatred, but he didn't dare to continue his attack.

This is the territory of Lingjiang State. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. If he continues to use force, he will probably suffer losses.

Besides, he came here with a purpose and he couldn't lose the big picture for the small.

Seeing them like this, Xia Younan couldn't help laughing, secretly sighing that Lu Xiuyuan was so domineering.

I can't stand Lu Shian, I can say it and scold him, but others can't say it. He gets angry when others say it, how can this feel like protecting his child?

Lu Shian's gloomy expression eased, and he glanced at Lu Xiuyuan, with a strange look flashing across his expression.

After a moment of silence, he sighed helplessly, "Everything requires evidence. If you can produce evidence that their prince molested our girl first, I will not allow them to bully me just for the sake of peace.

"But you can't produce any evidence, and they refuse to admit it. I really can't make a decision. After all, this is a matter of national importance. If there are any consequences, can Prince Yu Nan bear it?"

Lu Xiuyuan smiled and said, "If they are determined to start a war again, I am willing to go to the battle. But Your Majesty, do you dare to hand over the military power to me?"

Lu Shian's face changed and he was speechless for a moment.

This bastard Lu Xiuyuan really has evil intentions!

Before, he kept his head down and looked calm and composed, so calm that it seemed as if one could ignore his existence.

Since he regained his memory, he seemed like a different person. He spoke very boldly in the court, acted very fiercely and decisively, and just now he exposed his martial arts.

It seems that this kid is almost ready and doesn't need to disguise himself anymore.

Ye Beimo clenched his fists and waited for a long time, but he didn't see Lu Shian punish Lu Xiuyuan and his wife. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and urged him silently.

"After saying so much, Your Majesty would rather the two countries go to war again than punish and kill innocent people?"

Lu Shian glanced at him and knew that this matter needed an explanation. Moreover, he also had the urge to kill Lu Xiuyuan's prestige, so he shouted, "Come here, tie up Lu Xiuyuan for me!"

"Yes!" The group responded and took ropes to tie up Lu Xiuyuan.

Xia Younan refused to give in. She opened her arms to block Lu Xiuyuan and shouted at the approaching person in panic, "Don't come over! Don't touch my Yuan'er!"

Lu Xiuyuan was touched, and he pulled her to his side, raised his hand and scratched her nose, his eyes full of tenderness, "I said, you have done enough for me.

"From now on, I will protect you from the wind and rain. You just need to stay by my side obediently."

Xia Younan looked at him and shook his head angrily and aggrievedly, "Don't let them tie you up!"

"Be good, everything will be fine. Trust your husband." Lu Xiuyuan comforted her patiently, then looked at the two people who were approaching. His expression remained neither humble nor arrogant, and he was not afraid of the fate of being tied up and punished.

“Stop!” Suddenly a delicate shout was heard, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Lu Yanluo running towards them in panic, holding up her skirt.

"Go away!" She ran to Lu Xiuyuan and pushed away the soldier who had already raised the rope, shouting at them angrily.

"Whoever dares to get close to my brother again, I will chop off his head!"

The two soldiers were startled and could not help but take two steps back, looking at Lu Shian on the dragon throne helplessly.

Lu Shian's face darkened, and he raised his voice to scold, "Yanluo, why are you running here to make trouble instead of staying in the harem?"

Lu Yanluo's eyes were filled with tears. She sobbed a few times in grievance and was ready to go up to him and explain the truth.

"Yanluo!" Lu Xiuyuan grabbed her arm and shook his head at her.

He had already avenged her, and he didn't want her to mention that sad thing again, and he didn't want her to suffer those malicious intentions.

She was really scared, her face was covered with tear marks, her eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, and her little body was still trembling slightly.

The despair and fear in those eyes had not completely subsided, like a frightened deer, full of pity and helplessness.

Seeing her arm being pulled, Lu Yanluo turned to look at Lu Xiuyuan and said with a sob, "Brother Wang, I can't let you get involved."

After saying that, she pulled her arm away forcefully and ran towards Lu Shian without looking back.

"Yan..." Lu Xiuyuan wanted to say something else, but it was too late. He could only stare at the thin figure with a frown.

"Royal brother!" Lu Yanluo knelt down in front of Lu Shian. All her fear and grievances seemed to have reached a breaking point. She looked up at Lu Shian and cried bitterly.

When Lu Shian saw this scene, he was shocked at first, then he realized what was happening and his heart was broken. He immediately stood up from the dragon throne and squatted down to help his sister.

"Yanluo, what's wrong? Why are you crying so sadly? Don't cry, don't cry, my brother is here."

He wiped Lu Yanluo's tears and comforted her, his eyes red with heartache.

Lu Yanluo looked at him in grief, shaking her head and shedding tears, "Royal brother, you don't love Yanluo anymore, you don't want your sister anymore, right? You want to send me to Zhujing Country to marry, right?"

Lu Shian was confused and denied it in bewilderment: "What nonsense is Yanluo talking about? How could the emperor not want you?

"You are the one that the emperor loves the most. How could he bear to send you away to marry? Who told you that? This is a rumor. Don't believe it, Yanluo. The emperor won't do that."

“But…but that prince said he sent you a beautiful woman, and you must marry me to him, otherwise the two countries will go to war again.

"Brother, are you really willing to marry Yanluo to a place thousands of miles away?"

"How is this possible?" Lu Shian was shocked and angry, and hurriedly explained to her, "Yanluo, you are my only sister, and I love you more than myself. How could I be willing to sacrifice you in exchange for peace between the two countries?

"Don't worry, Yanluo. Even if my brother doesn't want to be the emperor anymore, he will never let you marry! My sister can only marry the one she loves."

Lu Yanluo was moved and aggrieved, she cried and confided: "I said the same thing, but that prince didn't listen to me, he pushed me against the wall despite my refusal.

"He tore off my clothes and said that as long as he destroyed my innocence, I would have to marry him even if I didn't want to."

Lu Shian's head buzzed and his face turned pale.

A chill spread along his spine like a poisonous snake, making him so frightened that he almost couldn't stand.

"The girl Lu Xiuyuan was talking about... is it you?" It took him a while to react, his eyes were bloodshot, and his body was shaking with intense anger.
