Yuan Shuolin looked a little ugly. When she said this in front of so many people, it seemed as if he had done something heinous.
He suppressed the anger in his heart and tried to speak calmly: "What are you doing? I didn't say anything, so why are you seeking death and survival?"
Li Yueling said: "Your Majesty didn't say anything? He just suspected that the rumors were related to me, otherwise he wouldn't have asked like that.
In the prince's mind, I must be a scheming and unscrupulous woman. Rather than being misunderstood by the prince like this, I would rather die."
Yuan Shuolin frowned, as he was about to have an attack. Seeing this, Mu Yunan hurriedly walked over and said, "What's going on?"
When Yuan Shuo saw her coming, he calmed down his anger a little and said in a deep voice: "There are rumors in the capital recently that are related to Miss Li's reputation. I just asked a question and have no other meaning.
Maybe I didn't express myself well and she misunderstood, so she actually jumped into the lake."
Mu Yun'an patted Li Yueling's hand, comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, I will make the decision for you."
As she said that, she raised her head and looked at Yuan Shuolin: "Miss Li is the distinguished guest I invited. She has been wronged by you, brother emperor. You must be responsible for this matter, and you must give an explanation to Miss Li."
Yuan Shuolin nodded with a calm face and said: "I understand."
Mu Yun'an helped Li Yueling stand up: "I'll send Miss Li to change clothes first."
She took Li Yueling away, and the people watching the fun naturally dispersed.
Xiao Chengyi looked at Yuan Shuolin's cold face and asked: "What's going on? What did you say to her?"
Yuan Shuo said: "I want to have a frank talk with her and let her calm down. Who would have thought she would come here like this?"
Xiao Chengyi clicked his tongue twice: "It seems that you can't marry this Miss Li. She fell into the water and was rescued by you.
In the eyes of others, her reputation has been ruined. If you don't marry her, she will really have no choice but to die.
I have to say that this move of hers was really exquisite, but you were too impulsive.
A scheming woman can do anything to achieve her goal."
Yuan Shuolin looked grave: "Why did she focus on me?"
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows: "Who told you not to have a concubine? You don't have a sweetheart either."
Yuan Shuolin was speechless. He was a little upset and asked: "What should we do now?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "You really don't like her?"
Yuan Shuolin answered simply: "I don't like it."
When she tipped off the news and helped them catch Han Qianyu, he had some appreciation for her, but now he only feels disgusted.
If she was more sensible and didn't behave in such an extreme way, maybe he could give it a try, but now he has no interest at all.
This was the first time in his life that he was plotted against by a woman.
Xiao Chengyi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Leave this matter to me. You go back and change your clothes so you don't catch a cold."
Yuan Shuolin felt relieved after hearing what he said. He nodded and then turned and left.
Xiao Chengyi waved and called Qingying over and said: "Go and inquire and see how the people in the palace passed the news?"
Qingying responded.
Feng Changling came over and asked, "How do you plan to solve this matter?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "How else can we solve it? Li Yueling wants to marry the princess so much that she can fulfill her. Isn't it good to seek benevolence and win benevolence and everyone will be happy?"
Feng Changling's lips twitched. How could this man be so kind? He glanced behind Xiao Chengyi as if something was wrong.
