Forced to die for his loyalty, he was reborn in the arms of the cold and cruel regent!

Shen Mengyao took a few steps back on the bridge, trying her best to avoid it.

But the noble ladies all stood on the steps, and none of them seemed to mind being squeezed and came close to flatter the emperor.

"The princess is naturally beautiful and graceful!"

"The princess is a model of royalty, worthy of admiration!"

……

These words were like drizzling rain, constantly falling on Shen Mengyao's ears. She didn't care much and just wanted to leave the crowded crowd and the crumbling bridge.

But at this moment, the crowd suddenly pressed over, and someone bumped into her in the chaos. Her hind legs hit the railing of the stone bridge and she lost her balance.

Her hands grasped feebly at the air, but there was nothing to grab. She leaned back and fell off the stone bridge.

Just as she was about to have a close contact with the pond, Qi Sui'an suddenly came over on the clear waves not far away, with a handsome figure!

He moved so fast that in just a moment, he flew to Shen Mengyao's side and held her tightly in his arms.

Shen Mengyao's eyes blurred and she thought she was going to fall to the ground, but unexpectedly she fell into an embrace that was cold and familiar.

She looked up and saw Qi Sui'an's handsome face close to her, his deep eyes full of concern.

Qi Sui'an tiptoed across the calm lake surface and brought her to land steadily at the lakeside!

"You...how come you suddenly appear?" Shen Mengyao's voice was a little trembling, but more of it was incredible.

Qi Suian did not answer her question, but just hugged her tightly, fearing that she would be hurt again.

*** saw the pair of hands that were tightly protecting her, his eyes were full of coldness, he bit his lips tightly, and said nothing.

He turned around and looked coldly at the stunned ladies crowded on the bridge, and said in a voice as cold as ice: "Who pushed her?"

Everyone was frightened by this sudden change. They looked at each other and whispered, and no one dared to answer.

"Don't make me ask for the third time! Who pushed her?" Qi Sui'an's voice was cold to the bone.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of hand, Shen Mengyao immediately cleared her throat and tried to stop it, saying, "Your Highness, there were so many people there just now, and accidents are bound to happen in the crowded situation. Please don't pursue the matter."

Qi Sui'an looked at Shen Mengyao deeply, and the coldness in his eyes seemed to soften a little at this moment, but his seriousness and persistence remained unchanged.

He glanced around, and finally his eyes fell on the pale-faced noblewoman beside him. The woman was trembling all over, obviously showing that she had done something wrong.

"I am not an unreasonable person, but if someone deliberately frames me, I will never tolerate it." Qi Sui'an's cold voice echoed by the wide lake, making everyone feel uneasy.

The noble lady's face turned paler and paler. Finally, she knelt on the ground with a plop and cried, "Your Highness, please be wise. I am innocent. There were really too many people around. I didn't do it on purpose..."

Having said that, her eyes turned to ***, as if begging her to speak for her.

*** pursed his lips, as if he was afraid of getting into trouble, and didn't say a word.

Shen Mengyao noticed the eye contact between them. Although she was angry, she also understood that causing such a commotion at the Hundred Flowers Banquet hosted by *** was not a good thing.

She gently pulled Qi Sui'an's sleeve and whispered, "Your Highness, forget it. Since she has admitted her mistake, just forgive her."

Qi Sui'an looked at Shen Mengyao deeply, and finally nodded, saying in a cold voice: "Since the princess has pleaded for you, then this king will forgive you this time, but if there is a next time, I will never let you off easily!"

The noble lady kowtowed repeatedly to express her gratitude as if she had been pardoned.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Princess, for your generosity!"

After greeting, she quickly left, as if she was worried that if the city gate caught fire, innocent people would be affected.

***On that gorgeous face, she managed to force a smile: "Everyone, please move aside. I will be here later!"

When Shen Mengyao turned around and left with everyone, Meng Yuehuan saw her smug look in the crowd and clenched her fists tightly.

*** seems to have some problems with her, maybe...

She turned around and chased in the direction where the girl left. Lu Rui turned around after hearing the noise and glanced at her coldly: "Who are you? How dare you sneak around and disrespect the girl."

Meng Yuehuan walked forward and bowed.

"Your servant pays respect to ***."

"Who are you?" *** glanced at her coldly, and seeing that she was dressed in ordinary clothes, she did not take him seriously.

Meng Yue walked forward happily and bowed: "Your Highness, I am Li Junfeng's cousin!"

The name sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had heard it.

Meng Yuehuan saw the confusion on her pretty face and immediately reminded her, "It's the man Princess Shen married."

"I see." *** sneered: "What on earth do you want to talk to me about?"

Meng Yuehuan lowered her eyes and added fuel to the fire, "Your Highness, Princess Shen has been trying to divorce before. Now it seems that she must want to leave the man she loves and marry someone more noble! Such a bad person should be taught a lesson."

*** narrowed his eyes. It turned out that everything was not accidental, but Shen Mengyao approached him deliberately.

She must have acted so pretentiously in front of him twice before, just to attract Qi Sui'an's attention, and now it seems to be quite effective.

When she thought about Qi Suian saving her, she was almost going crazy with jealousy.

"Oh, what do you have in mind?"

Meng Yuehuan stepped forward and whispered to her.

*** narrowed his eyes, and there was a coldness in his dark brown pupils.

"So good."

She returned to the banquet table, cleared her throat, and the banquet began.

Everyone raised their glasses to congratulate each other. Shen Mengyao was not very familiar with many of the noble ladies, so she raised her glass and drank alone.

"It's really boring to enjoy the scenery like this."

As soon as *** was proposed, someone started praising it.

"*** said so, there must be some clever trick!"

*** smiled modestly: "It's not a clever idea, but I just thought that today there are so many heroes gathered here, and there are so many flowers to accompany us. Wouldn't it be a waste of the beautiful scenery to just drink? I have come up with a clever idea. Why don't we all play the flying flower order?"

"Flying Flower Order is really interesting. We are lucky enough to be able to enjoy this elegance today!" The noble lady stood up with great interest: "I wonder if the master has thought of the rules?"

*** thought for a moment, lowered his head and laughed loudly, "Today is the Hundred Flowers Banquet. In order to let everyone enjoy the feast for the eyes, this palace master has cultivated many rare species. Whoever this flying flower order flies to will have a servant bring a pot of flowers. That person will write a poem based on this flower. Even if it's just one sentence, it will be passed!"
