Sima Yan"s heart surged with anger as he sneered and looked at Mu Yi.

He looked up and said coldly, “Guard, block all of them for me. No one can stop me from taking Maiden Dongfang away today.”

‘This Mu Yi still does not understand that I"m saving his life!

‘Is there anyone around the Ninth Emperor who is less powerful?

‘If Dongfang Yu is angry, no one could protect him!"

Dongfang Yu glances at Mu Yi coldly. Her hand on the sword slowly fell. She then turned around and followed Sima Yan.

Mu Yi was about to stop her, but…

The people from General Manor had already surrounded Mu Yi, not giving him a chance to leave.

At that moment, Mu Yi"s face darkened.

The people of General Manor were powerful. If they really wanted to make a move, he would never be a match for these people.

The reason he dared to do so before was that he was taking a gamble.

He was gambling that Sima Yan would not dare to make a move against him.

‘I didn"t expect that… Sima Yan can be so arrogant today."

Mu Yi took a deep breath, cold and sullen. “I must go to the palace to report this matter to the emperor. Sima Yan, as a general, dares to be so arrogant. He did not even show respect to the emperor"s son-in-law.”

He said this out loud deliberately so that the general"s guards could hear him and that they would know that they would be doomed if they went against him!

After saying that, Mu Yi turned around and left.

The people of General Manor saw that Mu Yi did not go after Sima Yan, so they did not stop him from leaving.

Mu Qingya was also a bit dazed. Sima Yan had obviously been fighting with his father for a long time, but why was he so arrogant this time?

However, she did not think much about it and followed Mu Yi"s lead and left.

It was only after Mu Yi left that the crowd dispersed, and the guards retreated.

Sima Yan stopped and looked back at Dongfang Yu respectfully. “Maiden Dongfang, it is the emperor who wants to see you.”

Dongfang Yu frowned. “I don"t like the imperial family.”

Sima Yan froze.

“Why?”

“Because of…” Dongfang Yu smiled coldly. “Qingluo and Mu Yi.”

After hearing these words, Sima Yan froze for a moment.

He thought it was just a simple fight, but he did not expect that Princess Qingluo was also involved.

‘What kind of grudge can there be between them?"

Sima Yan did not ask her that. He just thought about it and asked, “Since Maiden Dongfang does not like Mu Yi, why did you let him go just now?”

“Oh…” Dongfang Yu was stunned. “I can"t let others have any chance to humiliate the Ninth Emperor.”

She had already hit Old Lady Mu just now, so she would not attack when Mu Yi did not make the first move.

Earlier, it was Old Lady Mu who first tried to pull her before she did something to her.

After all, Mu Yi was still the Ninth Emperor"s father. Just in case, people know that the Ninth Emperor"s woman attacked Mu Yi first…

The Ninth Emperor did not care about this, but she did.

“You shouldn"t have stopped him from making a move on me just now.” Dongfang Yu"s face was cold. “If he had made the first move, I would have been able to defend myself, and if I had defended myself, I would have been able to get him killed. Then, no one else would have had the chance to humiliate my family and the Ninth Emperor.”

Sima Yan froze. ‘So it has become my fault now…"
