With a slight headache, he rubbed his temples: “Jiang Ning, oh, Jiang Ning, do you think Mu Jian is a nobody? You casually detain him and believe no one would notice?”

Mu Jian usually keeps a low profile, not seeking attention.

However, having grown up with Li Hongyuan and now serving as the leader of the Right Imperial Guards of the Crown Prince’s East Palace, he is not a person who can just disappear on a whim.

Jiang Ning nonchalantly picked up a small dumpling and stuffed it into her mouth.

She didn’t care a bit about Li Hongyuan’s fury.

Li Hongyuan said: “Send a word to your home right away, tell Prime Minister Jiang to let Mu Jian go.”

“No,” she replied.

“Jiang Ning!”

Li Hongyuan didn’t expect her to refuse so firmly and decisively.

If it were any other woman who dared to say these words to him, he would think the world had gone mad.

However, coming from Jiang Ning, other than being annoyed, he found nothing abnormal about it.

“What if I order you to release him in my capacity as the Crown Prince?”

“Still no.” Jiang Ning propped her chin, grinned at him with her pretty, pale face, and with the sweetest tone, delivered the most ruthless words.

Li Hongyuan’s head was buzzing.

How could there be such a woman in this world?

Does she understand this is the royal court, where respect and hierarchy matters?

He is the Crown Prince! How can he have no hold over this woman?

“Do you believe me if I…” he glared at her, attempting some threatening words.

She just answered him with bright, smiling eyes.

All his threat felt as if they were hitting cotton.

“So what if I don’t obey your command, Prince? Will you curse me, hit me, or kill me?” Jiang Ning curiously asked.

“Aren’t you afraid I’ll banish you to the Cold Palace?”

“How is my current situation any different from being in the Cold Palace, may I ask, my dear Crown Prince?” Jiang Ning spread her hands, “I’m the Princess Consort, but the harem’s domestic affairs are at the mercy of Concubine Li. It’s the depth of winter, and if I want a piece of coal, I still need Concubine Li’s approval!”

“Do you think that offending me will have only these consequences?”

“If there are others, why doesn’t the Crown Prince show me?”

“Look at you, you’re like a pig who’s not afraid of boiling water!” Unable to contain himself anymore, Li Hongyuan cursed.

Jiang Ning slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and glared at him: “I’m a pig? Then what are you? The boar who married a pig, professes to love the pig, and even had a child with a pig?”

“You–”

Li Hongyuan was so angry, he raised his hand.

“Don’t slap faces when hitting someone!” Alarmed, Jiang Ning covered her face and crouched down.

She was more cowardly than anyone.

Li Hongyuan was both angry and amused; he just couldn’t bring himself to slap her.

He glared at her for a moment and said, “Jiang Ning, you only dare to cross me because you know I care about you, and I love you.”

Jiang Ning muttered with her head in her hands, “My confidence has never come from your love.”

Hearing her clearly, Li Hongyuan sneered, “Indeed, behind you are the Jiang family and the all-powerful pair of brothers, Jiang Ruobai and Jiang Mubai. As the Crown Prince, of course, I can’t afford to provoke them.”

Jiang Ning noticed him lower his hand, so she raised her head and said, “If you are unsatisfied with them, go to them for the person, what kind of man bullies me here?”

Li Hongyuan’s anger cooled, he sat down slowly and said, “Without your agreement, Jiang Ruobai won’t let the person go. He may even deny that he is holding Mu Jian.”
