The Duke of Zhenguo couldn't help but look at the handsome young man in front of him. Even though there was a human skin mask between them, the determination in his eyes could still be seen by the Duke of Zhenguo.
The Duke of Zhenguo was a little dazed. The eyes of the young man in front of him seemed familiar to those of a man he had seen many years ago. He was also like that at that time. He said that the royal family could not trap love, and he would protect his sister for the rest of his life.
For many years, he thought he had done it, but he didn't expect that in just a few days, everything would change and his sister would become a person buried in the earth.
"Has the Duke of Zhenguo found a marriage partner for Ah Man?" Murong Kai asked softly when he saw the Duke of Zhenguo staring at him.
Duke Zhenguo Chu Zhenhua looked at Murong Kai without answering, but in his heart he compared the young man in front of him with that man.
I have to say that the young man in front of me is more suitable for Ah Man, but his identity destined Ah Man to marry far away, and they were destined to have no way to be together.
"I don't care which marriage the Duke of Zhenguo has found for Ah Man. The day Ah Man marries is the day when my Great Zhou attacks Bei'an."
Murong Kai spoke firmly. The Duke of Zhenguo looked at him with surprise. He was threatening him, saying that he would risk his life for the woman he loved.
"You are just a prince of the Great Zhou, you are not qualified to mobilize troops..."
"The Duke of Zhenguo may not know that the Concubine Dong of the Great Zhou is a thing of the past. Now, the most favored concubine in the Great Zhou is my mother. Moreover, the ancestor approves of my relationship with Ah Man."
If Concubine Jin cannot influence the court, what about the Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou
"You won't do that. Bei'an is the country that Ah Man wants to protect."
"If I can't marry her, I don't care whose country Bei'an is. I will ask my father to make friends with Bei'an and let the forces of Da Zhou protect Ah Man, but the premise of all this is that Ah Man is my woman."
"So, no matter what, please don't try to get Ah Man to marry someone else, otherwise, I can't guarantee that I will do something crazy."
This naked threat was both domineering and affectionate. Although his plan failed, seeing how Murong Kai was so affectionate towards Ah Man, he couldn't utter a word of blame.
"Forget it. You have to protect Ah Man. If she gets hurt in the slightest, I won't let you off easily."
"Ah Man is the woman I have chosen. I will naturally protect her. You just need to do your job well."
"Duke Zhenguo, I have been thinking about a question in Bei'an for a while. I wonder if you can help me solve it?"
Without waiting for the Duke of Zhenguo to answer, Murong Kai continued to ask: "What is the evidence that Emperor Bei'an believes you are a traitor?"
The Duke of Zhenguo obviously did not expect Murong Kai to ask this question. Facing him, he did not know how to answer for a moment.
"The Duke of Zhenguo doesn't know either, right?" Murong Kai pressed on step by step. The Duke of Zhenguo looked at him, still without saying a word.
"Know."
"Can you tell me what it is?"
"cannot."
Murong Kai didn't say anything else, but looked at the Duke of Zhenguo with an even more puzzled expression.
There are many strange things and people in Bei'an. First, the emperor of Bei'an said that he had broken up with the queen, but he stood at the palace gate for a whole day on the day of the funeral. If this is not affection, then I really don't know what words to use to describe it.
The Duke of Zhenguo was thrown into prison, but he was very secretive about the evidence that proved his innocence.
"It's fine if the Duke of Zhenguo doesn't want to say it, but Ah Man and I will find the evidence to prove that the Chu family is honest, even if it costs our lives."
"You don't have to look for it." There was a hint of urgency in the Duke of Zhenguo's words, but Murong Kai just smiled at him with a smile in his eyes, as if he knew some secret that others didn't know.
