Chapter 119 Embarrassment
The man in black turned around quickly, using his internal energy to fly outside.
Tianshu didn't hesitate at all and chased after him.
After the two of them left, An Qingqian and Shi Qiuwu came out from behind the screen.
"Since the prince has other things here, I will leave first." An Qingqian stood up and prepared to say goodbye.
But one of his hands accidentally touched Shi Qiuwu's clothes.
He was just wearing a piece of clothing on the outside, and the belt was tied loosely.
An Qingqian accidentally touched the corner of the belt.
In an instant, Shi Qiuwu's coat opened wide, revealing his inner garment.
Although his body was completely covered by his inner garment, there were differences between men and women after all, and they were very close at the moment.
He was standing in front of her in his underwear. It was night time and the candles were out, which added a bit of ambiguity to the atmosphere.
An Qingqian just stood there in a daze, her face full of embarrassment.
She looked up at Shi Qiuwu helplessly, only to see that Shi Qiuwu was also looking down at her.
The room was still dark, although An Qingqian's inner strength did not affect his vision.
However, she couldn't see the emotions in Shi Qiuwu's eyes, she just felt a burning gaze staring at her, making her feel a little uneasy and flustered.
The two of them froze in place at the same time, without any reaction. An Qingqian could even smell the elegant sandalwood scent on Shi Qiuwu's body, which came from years of burning incense and seemed to have seeped into his body.
"I'm sorry, I, I didn't mean it." An Qingqian was speechless for a rare time. She took two steps back in panic, looking away, not daring to look Shi Qiuwu in the face.
"It's okay." Shi Qiuwu said softly, with a faint smile in his tone.
Seeing An Qingqian, who was always calm and composed, showing such a flustered look, he just found it interesting.
What he didn't tell An Qingqian was that he had actually deliberately untied the strap of his clothes.
Otherwise, how could the tape open with just a light touch from An Qingqian?
"Your Highness, I suddenly remembered that I have other things to deal with in the mansion, so I'll leave first. Thank you for what happened today, Your Highness."
An Qingqian finished speaking quickly, without even looking at Shi Qiuwu, and turned and left.
She was afraid that she would accidentally see something she shouldn't see.
This night is ridiculous!
In Prince Yong's Mansion, Shi Qiujie has smashed a lot of things since he returned to the mansion.
"Xue Wanxian is such an idiot that he can even let a duck fly away when it is placed in his mouth. He is so stupid and foolish."
As Prince Yong spoke, he smashed a glass vase on the table to the ground.
The green glazed vase was instantly smashed into pieces all over the floor, and the room was in a mess.
The three aides beside him were all trembling and dared not speak.
"Speak up, are you all mute?" Prince Yong was so furious that he vented his anger on the three people opposite him.
"Your Highness, the Emperor's decree came out so suddenly that we didn't expect it. What on earth is going on? Didn't the Emperor disagree with An Qingqian and Xue Wanxian's divorce before? Why did he suddenly agree?"
An aide spoke up under pressure, saying they knew nothing about the matter.
Ever since Prince Yong came back, he has been cursing and smashing things non-stop. He only said that the two had divorced, and they had no idea what exactly happened.
What do you want them to say now?
"Hmph, in the afternoon, when An Zhenyuan returns to Beijing, the first thing he does when he enters the Imperial Study is to ask the Emperor for permission to allow An Qingqian and Xue Wanxian to divorce, so that they will have nothing to do with each other in marriage from now on."
After venting his anger, Prince Yong's anger finally subsided a little.
After calming down, he recounted in detail what had happened in the imperial study.
"Your Highness, why did An Zhenyuan suddenly become like this? Before this, I didn't receive any news that An Zhenyuan would have such an idea."
"I didn't know about this either. It happened so suddenly that not only us, but even my father was shocked." Prince Yong let out a long sigh and walked to the only intact chair next to him and sat down.
"Your Highness, what happened here that we don't know about that would make An Zhenyuan take such action?" an aide asked tentatively.
"The people over there didn't send any news, nor did they say there was anything wrong with An Zhenyuan."
Prince Yong shook his head. It was precisely because of this that An Zhenyuan's actions were beyond everyone's expectations and caught everyone off guard.
They didn't even have any defense.
"Things have already happened. What should we do now? Are we going to hand over this power to others for nothing?" Prince Yong knocked on the table in annoyance.
He had put so much effort into this matter, and he was unwilling to give up just like that.
"Your Highness, from what I have seen, there must be some other hidden reason behind An Zhenyuan's actions. We must find out what it is."
An aide suggested.
"Your Highness, I think the most urgent task is to win over General An first. Other matters can be put aside for the time being." Another aide had a different idea.
"Win over? Humph, this old man An Zhenyuan is stubborn and his only weakness is his daughter. I thought I had a sure win, but I didn't expect that I would fail at the last moment when I was so close to success."
Prince Yong snorted coldly, his face full of murderous intent.
"Your Highness, if Xue Wanxian fails, we can think of other ways."
"What do you have in mind?" Prince Yong frowned and looked up at the aide who was speaking in front of him.
"Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking nonsense. Although An Qingqian is the daughter of a great general, it would be detrimental to her reputation if she divorced him now. If she wants to marry again in the future, there will inevitably be a lot of trouble. If Your Highness is willing to marry her as the prince's consort, I believe An Qingqian and An Zhenyuan will be grateful to Your Highness."
As soon as these words were spoken, before Prince Yong could say anything, another aide stood up to object.
"What do you mean? An Qingqian is already married, how can she become your highness's principal wife? If this is told to others, won't the other highnesses laugh at you in secret?"
"Your Highness, I am not saying that I want to marry An Qingqian as my principal wife. She is already a second-married woman, but she has the support of An Zhenyuan. Your Highness can just marry her as a concubine."
"Your Highness already has two concubines, where is the space left?" the aide retorted unconvinced.
Prince Yong thought that what the first aide said made sense and motioned for him to continue.
Seeing that Prince Yong was interested in his proposal, the man spoke again.
"Your Highness, you already have two concubines, but for the sake of your great cause, you can give up the position of concubine to one of them, and your Highness can compensate the one who gave up the position through other methods.
Giving the position of concubine to An Qingqian is a great honor to An Zhenyuan, and it won't damage His Highness's dignity."
