"Release , release ." Ju Nanyi had just stepped in when he heard Zheng Nianru’s cries, furious and defiant, her feet kicking at Nanny Yun, but her entire leg was embraced by Nanny Yun, making her kicks rely for show, posing no threat whatsoever.
Ju Nanyi had endured such treatnt before; when she beca unreasonable, even your breathing was wrong.
Zheng Congyuan suddenly looked up. Why had Ju Nanyi co?
"Ju Nanyi, leave," Zheng Congyuan said, his face stern, quickly grabbing the cloak Zheng Nianru had carelessly thrown on the desk and throwing it over her.
Eunuch Du imdiately went to pull Ju Nanyi away, but Ju Nanyi, as if he hadn’t heard, took a few steps and reached Zheng Nianru, wrapping one arm around her waist. Zheng Nianru’s feet left the ground as he stepped back with her, letting her kick and hit him as she struggled in his arms.
"Ju Nanyi, let go of —" Zheng Nianru was imdiately enraged. Nanny Yun was initially stunned by Ju Nanyi’s actions, but the next mont, feeling this was the most dangerous ti, Nanny Yun, without standing up, hurriedly pulled at her mistress’s leg, "Empress..."
"Ju Nanyi, release her," Zheng Congyuan stepped forward, his expression icy.
Nian Xia, Fu Dong panicked, imdiately going to pull their mistress.
"Pri Minister Ju, release my mistress—"
"Ju Nanyi, how dare you—" Zheng Congyuan stepped forward again, Ju Nanyi released his hold, Zheng Nianru, supported by Nian Xia’s arm, had cald down sowhat. How was Ju Nanyi here?
"Ju Nanyi, you dare to treat this way?" Zheng Nianru reached out to slap him, but Ju Nanyi quickly caught her raised arm.
When she was angry, hitting and scolding were common, and he had often been on the receiving end, but in front of others, it was not allowed.
"Empress, had I not pulled you away in ti, your life might be in danger," Ju Nanyi finally said.
"Empress—" Nanny Yun quickly grabbed Zheng Nianru’s arm. Pri Minister Ju was not one who could be struck lightly. Ju Nanyi didn’t insist and released his hold.
"Empress, it would be best if you return to Chenhe Palace first, as I have urgent matters to report to the Emperor," Ju Nanyi didn’t want to entangle with Zheng Nianru over these issues, especially when she wasn’t using her mind, which was quite troubleso.
"This matter concerns the Emperor and ; as a subject, you have no right to command ," Zheng Nianru fud. What exactly was he trying to do? His earlier actions were sheer madness.
Ju Nanyi looked at Zheng Nianru with a gaze full of restraint, and in the end, it turned into consolation — "Be good, go back first."
Zheng Nianru frantically averted her gaze; she had actually understood. After so many years together, how could she not understand what Ju Nanyi ant with that look?
"Empress—" "Empress, we should hurry and leave."
Zheng Congyuan suddenly looked at the two of them, so things he had never noticed before slowly surfacing in his mind.
Ju Nanyi and Zheng Nianru knew each other?
No, they had known each other for a long ti. In fact, Ju Nanyi had saved Zheng Nianru’s life more than once.
No, that’s not the point; it was their understanding of each other. This kind of understanding couldn’t be developed through just a few etings. He knew Ju Nanyi, such a proud man, how could he be so ek and silent. He knew Zheng Nianru even better, an even prouder person. If she was really angry, she wouldn’t listen to Ju Nanyi.
But now, he clearly saw that Zheng Nianru had backed down. What did that look from Ju Nanyi an?
"Empress—" Seeing that Zheng Nianru had cald down, Fu Dong imdiately approached, "Empress, your well-being is paramount."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Nianru completely lost her earlier anger. Yes, she was furious, but now was not the ti to confront Ju Nanyi.
Zheng Nianru turned to look at Zheng Congyuan, her gaze filled with grievance and reluctance, but she did not continue to make a scene, as if to say, she was enduring for his sake.
Zheng Congyuan suddenly found his earlier thoughts amusing. Although Nian Ru was being sowhat unreasonable, she was rational in matters of significant importance; she was enduring for his sake.
Zheng Nianru turned and walked away, Nanny Yun and the others were montarily stunned, then hurriedly followed.
The room suddenly fell silent, the people outside watching as the Empress left, montarily rooted to the spot.
Zheng Congyuan only then turned to look at Ju Nanyi, Zheng Nianru he did not doubt, but Ju Nanyi he doubted. Why wouldn’t he doubt, considering that look just now...
"Emperor—" Ju Nanyi bowed his head, beginning to speak.
"Enough, Ju Nanyi, how dare you, barging into Chenyuan Hall." Hearing this, the guards outside instantly grew nervous, uneasily looking toward the hall.
