The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Chapter 422 Imperial Edict

"Explanation? What explanation?" Shen Qionghua opened his big eyes with clear black and white and pretended to be stupid, refusing to respond to the conversation.

She covered the big hand that was restraining her waist, trying to move it away, "Let go...let go of me, don't get so close to me..." Shen Qionghua said in panic.

Xie Nanyuan looked at the woman pretending to be stupid, his eyes slightly narrowed, and the hand that was restraining her waist not only did not relax, but tightened even more.

Shen Qionghua was forced to press her whole body against him, and could clearly feel the increasingly hot breath sprayed by the man.

Xie Nanyuan's voice was hoarse, with a hint of danger in his tone. He said, "What do you owe me? Hmm?"

The possessiveness and dominance in his heart were no longer hidden, and they attacked Shen Qionghua like a tidal wave. Seeing him like this, Shen Qionghua didn't dare to respond and could only continue to play dumb.

"I...I don't know. You...let me go. I'm going to find Xiyao."

As Shen Qionghua spoke, her hand quietly reached towards the door behind her.

Before he could even open the door, Xie Nanyuan grabbed him again.

Shen Qionghua's body stiffened and she couldn't help but curse in her heart.

Xie Nanyuan put one arm around Shen Qionghua's waist and clamped one of her hands with the other. His dark eyes stared into Shen Qionghua's eyes as he slowly leaned over.

Every time he bent down an inch, Shen Qionghua's waist bent back an inch, and their cheeks were always kept a fist's distance apart.

At first, Shen Qionghua could still pretend to smile, but later, she couldn't even keep her composure, and a hint of ferocity appeared on her face.

She has a backache.

Just when she was in unbearable pain, Xie Nanyuan spoke up. He said, "Why are you going to look for her? Isn't it enough to have me by your side?"

He stood up suddenly, and then, with a slight force from the big hand that was restraining her waist, Shen Qionghua "threw" into his arms.

He took Shen Qionghua's hand with his other hand and touched his chest. He raised his eyes slightly and said, "Do you understand now? If you still don't know, then..."

His gaze shifted slightly downwards, landing on those red lips.

This familiar aggressive look and the burning heat under his palm frightened Shen Qionghua so much that she quickly said, "I know, I know, I know."

"Oh? Then tell me, what do you know?" Xie Nanyuan said softly, pressing on step by step.

Shen Qionghua felt like crying, but she had no tears. She didn't know why things had suddenly developed to this point. Facing Xie Nanyuan's burning gaze, she could only bite the bullet and say, "I offended you in a moment of haste. I'm truly sorry."

After saying that, she tentatively looked at Xie Nanyuan, only to find that the man's expression was even worse than before.

Xie Nanyuan said with a dark face, "Is this what you're telling me? You're sending me away with just an apology?"

"Shen Qionghua, do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?"

Of course I pretend not to understand.

Shen Qionghua said secretly in her heart.

If she understood this, he would definitely have other words waiting for her.

Shen Qionghua now didn't know what her behavior meant. She avoided him, but couldn't help but care about him and get close to him.

But when she really got close to him, she cowardly ran away.

So capricious.

As a result, she now feels a little disgusted with herself now.

Shen Qionghua pursed her lips and fell into a rare silence.

Xie Nanyuan could only see a head with a golden hairpin stuck in black hair facing him, and he immediately laughed out of anger.

He reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to look up and meet his gaze. "Now that you've seen and touched me, you must be responsible for me."

Such shameless behavior made Shen Qionghua's eyes widen. She subconsciously opened her mouth to say something, but Xie Nanyuan pressed his thumb on her lips and shut her mouth manually.

"Don't talk yet, just listen to me first." Xie Nanyuan said.

This mouth currently only says words that make him angry, so it’s better not to say anything to avoid ruining the atmosphere.

After Shen Qionghua shut up, Xie Nanyuan continued, "I know you were concerned about me and worried about my injuries, so you lost your composure and entered the Rui Palace."

Shen Qionghua nodded.

"I also know that you lifted my blanket and untied my clothes because you wanted to check my injuries, not for any other purpose."

Shen Qionghua nodded heavily.

"You were deliberately guided by someone to treat me like this."

Shen Qionghua wished she could click her head off.

"So, you're just too concerned. You care about me so much, so you must have me in your heart, and I have you in my heart too. We're meant to be together."

Shen Qionghua nodded halfway when she suddenly stopped and then shook her head frantically. However, she couldn't open her mouth and could only whimper, which looked a little funny.

Xie Nanyuan didn't find it funny, he just thought it was cute.

He selectively ignored Shen Qionghua's frantic shaking of her head in the latter half of the sentence and only remembered her nod.

"Yeah, you think so too. It seems that we really have the same idea." Xie Nanyuan said to himself with a smile on his face.

"Don't worry, after we get married, you can look, touch, and kiss as much as you want. I won't stop you. Of course, if you want to before marriage... that's not impossible. I'll do whatever you want."

This one sentence almost made Shen Qionghua furious again.

After teasing her for a while and seeing that he was about to annoy her, Xie Nanyuan removed his hand from Shen Qionghua's mouth.

Shen Qionghua was free, and immediately began to speak incessantly, "Xie Nanyuan, there's no objection to your childish behavior. It won't change anything at all."

"It's true that I care about you, but it's just my concern for a friend. There's no future for us. Could you please stop saying things that go beyond the point of it?"

"And, you..."

Before Shen Qionghua could finish her words, Xie Nanyuan produced a bright yellow imperial edict from somewhere and placed it in front of her.

Shen Qionghua suddenly fell silent, and all the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat, dying between her lips and teeth.

After a long while, she finally found her voice and asked, "What...what is this?"

Shen Qionghua heard her own voice trembling.

Xie Nanyuan said: "This is an imperial decree."

Nonsense, of course she knew it was an imperial edict. The question was why Xie Nanyuan showed it to her and what the content of the edict was.

Thinking that Xie Nanyuan might act first and report later, Shen Qionghua felt very uncomfortable.

Could this be the emperor's decree ordering her to enter Prince Rui's palace as a concubine?

Shen Qionghua couldn't accept the thought that she would be trapped in the inner house for the rest of her life, and even her own children could only call her aunt and not mother.

She stared at the bright yellow imperial edict with her eyes fixed, her whole body trembling, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying.

This thing is very likely to control or even change her destiny for the rest of her life.

Seeing Shen Qionghua staring at the imperial edict blankly, as if she was frightened, Xie Nanyuan couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

He took Shen Qionghua's hand, handed the imperial edict to her personally, and said softly, "Open it quickly and take a look."

Shen Qionghua's gaze moved from the imperial edict to Xie Nanyuan's face with a faint smile and expectation, and finally fell back on the imperial edict.

What is coming will eventually come.

Shen Qionghua took a deep breath, clenched the imperial edict in his hand, and slowly opened it——
