Chapter 1357 Prince Li's Extra: Provocation

Along with Su Jing's voice, Ah Man heard the biting north wind, which was chilling to the bone, as if it was going to freeze her in this icy and snowy place.

When Ah Man came to her senses, several guards had already passed by her and walked towards her uncle and cousin.

Even though this was a result that she had thought of long ago, and even though she had made sufficient mental preparations, when this moment really appeared in front of her, she still couldn't control herself. She looked coldly at her father in the distance, and just as she was about to speak, her hand was tightly grasped by Murong Kai behind her.

"Calm down, now is not the time to be impulsive."

Murong Kai's voice was very low, with warmth, which gradually dispelled the coldness in her heart.

"But..."

"No buts, this is my uncle's choice, don't mess around now, we have a breakthrough now, and we will definitely find out the truth and clear my uncle and his family's name."

Murong Kai's words were very firm, and Ah Man's floating heart finally found a fulcrum. She tightly grasped Murong Kai's hand, closed her eyes, and dared not watch the scene of her uncle and cousin being taken away.

When Ah Man closed her eyes, Murong Kai reached out and covered Xuan Er's eyes. Such a scene was too cruel for a child.

Murong Kai felt distressed because his Ah Man was still a child not long ago, but now she had to bear the burden that she should not bear.

The guards quickly took Chu Zhenhua and Chu Nanfeng away. When Murong Kai's hand fell, Xuan Er looked around in surprise. Finally, she couldn't help asking, "Where is uncle?"

"Uncle went back to the mansion first. He will come to see you in a few days." Ah Man explained softly, but Xuan Er obviously didn't believe her explanation. Her big watery eyes stared at Ah Man, as if waiting for another answer.

Ah Man couldn't bear to watch any longer. She stood up, took Xuan Er's hand, and walked step by step into the depths of the palace.

But before he returned to his palace, he saw the concubines standing at the gate of the palace to greet him.

There were beauties of different shapes and sizes. Except for Concubine Zhu and Concubine Xu standing in the front, Ah Man couldn't really tell the other concubines apart. Of course, Ah Man had a unified understanding of them: beauties.

But these beauties were completely different from when her mother was alive. Before, they were all well-behaved, but now they were competing with each other for beauty, as if they were afraid that people would not know their beauty.

"Sister, you are finally back. I thought I would never see you again." When Ah Man was observing several concubines, a familiar voice suddenly came from the crowd. Ah Man looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhu Jinxiu standing among the concubines with a smile as bright as a flower.

Su Jinxiu dressed up specially today. Her hairpins and rings looked dazzling, like a shelf of grocery stores, and her clothes were even more golden. Even though her face was dull, she couldn't suppress her nouveau riche temperament.

Before, Ah Man treated Su Jinxiu as her good sister, so she naturally wouldn't look at her clothes in a critical way. Sometimes when she dressed too much, she would try to persuade her to change without hurting her face. Before, she rarely dressed too much, but today...

"Sister, you are not afraid of losing face for our Princess Bei'an by wearing such plain clothes. You are the only legitimate princess of Bei'an. Uh..., I was wrong, you may not be the only one now.

When Su Jinxiu spoke, she couldn't hide her pride in her eyes, as if she could already step on Ah Man.

Ah Man glanced at Su Jinxiu, took Xuan'er's hand, walked slowly to Concubine Zhu, and said with a smile: "Concubine Zhu, during the time I was away, you and Concubine Xu were busy with the affairs of the palace. Now that I'm back, shouldn't you return the golden seal of the palace?"

Concubine Zhu looked at Ah Man, and didn't know how to respond for a while. She didn't want to hand over the golden seal, but what Ah Man said seemed to be right.
