”Miss An's words are really funny!” Zhao Lanyu scoffed, his gaze filled with disdain, ”You are the dignified direct descendant of Prince An's Palace, how could you want to learn medicine, aren't you dreaming?”
An Lingge looked back, her gaze landing on his body. Only then did she calmly and unhurriedly greet him, ”This subject greets Seventh Prince, what do you mean by that, Seventh Prince?”
”This prince's intention is very simple. As the direct daughter of the Prince An's Palace, you actually accumulated so many medicinal ingredients during the battle between the Qingyue Kingdom and the Great Zhou. It's clear that you have ill intentions.”
When Zhao Lanyu opened his mouth to accuse her of abnormal conduct, he knew that he must be harboring evil intentions.
However, An Lingge just laughed casually, her face carrying a hint of ridicule, ”Seventh Prince's words are really funny, these medicinal herbs can be bought by ordinary people, as the direct daughter of the Prince An's Palace, can't I buy them? According to Seventh Prince's intentions, ordinary people should eat three meals a day. Seventh Prince cannot eat, otherwise, it would be perverted and harbouring evil intentions. ”
”How dare you!” Zhao Lanyu roared in anger, and showed his dignity as a prince, ”Do you know what kind of crime it is to slander a prince?”
”This subject does not know.” An Lingge was neither humble nor arrogant, she did not seem to be frightened by him, ”This subject only took the Seventh Prince's logic to reverse the situation, how could she slander the prince? Do you also think that your words just now slandered this humble servant's daughter? ”
”Heh, no matter how sharp your words are, it won't change the fact that you're hoarding medicinal herbs!” Zhao Lanyu's smile was not on the outside, but his eyes were full of respect.
An Lingge still smiled gently, her expression open, without a trace of panic. ”The reason why this subject is hoarding the medicinal herbs is to learn pharmacology, could it be that I have violated the laws of the country?”
”Do you think you can fool this prince with such a ridiculous excuse?” Zhao Lanyu was not moved, and found the flaw in An Lingge's words, ”Even if you want to learn medicine, you can ask a doctor to teach you, why do you need to stock up on medicinal ingredients? This prince sees that you are plotting against me, wanting to send the medicinal ingredients to the Qingyue Kingdom, wanting to betray my country! ”
”Seventh Prince's words are really serious.” The ridicule from the corner of An Lingge's mouth became even stronger, ”It was just a few casual words, yet you want to pin the crime of colluding with the enemy and betraying the nation on me.
”Little Ge, don't speak nonsense!” When An Yingcheng heard him mention the Emperor, there was no reverence in his words, but instead some ridicule, and immediately spoke up to stop her.
If the emperor were to hear this, he would really blame them!
He was terrified in his heart, but An Lingge smiled at him as if she was comforting him, ”Father, don't worry. It's a pity that the emperor painstakingly taught the Seventh Prince all this, but he actually didn't let the Seventh Prince learn even the slightest bit of his righteousness and wisdom, and instead developed such a despotic personality. ”
”So what if this prince is arrogant and despotic? If you don't clearly explain the motive for hoarding these medicinal ingredients, then this prince can suspect that you are colluding with Qingyue Kingdom, and more importantly, will be able to punish you for treason! ”
Zhao Lanyu was impatient to have a verbal confrontation with An Lingge, so he directly stated his attitude.
He was here to deal with An Lingge, unless An Lingge had a clear conscience and could speak the truth.
If someone could not refute such a rogue, it was all because of his identity.
An Lingge was disdainful from the bottom of her heart. Her pair of black eyes was filled with anger, which made people even more afraid, ”As the old saying goes, catch the thief and take the dirty one out. If Seventh Prince wants to convict me, then I need to give him evidence.
