Chapter 120 Di Ran's Coldness
Di Ran glanced at Boqing with his cold eyes, stared at Ji Chen, and spoke in an icy tone.
"What crime should you be charged with for slandering my king in front of me?"
Ji Chen’s face turned pale, and his delicate body was shaking.
"I... Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty is just..."
Di Ran's cold and cruel voice came: "I have said that if I hear anyone slandering the king again, I will never let him off easily!"
Ji Chen's face turned pale with fear, his body went limp and he almost fell to his knees, luckily Liu'er held him up.
"Your Majesty~"
Ji Yunxie glanced at Ji Chen, frowned slightly, and narrowed his eyes.
Di Ran noticed that his sleeve was gently pulled. He glanced sideways and looked at Ji Yunxie with gentle eyes, no longer as cold as he treated outsiders.
"what happened?"
Ji Yunxie pursed his lips, looked up at Di Ran, shook his head, and said softly.
"Forget it~"
After all, Ji Chen is also from Prince Zhan's Mansion. It would not be good to go too far. He doesn't want to cause trouble for her.
Di Ran paused for a moment and looked at Ji Yunxie deeply. When did her Xiao Jiu become soft-hearted?
The corners of Di Ran's lips curled up and he raised his hand to touch the top of his head.
It doesn’t matter, this time, it’s her turn to protect him.
"Good~"
It was surprising to see how intimate the two of them were without paying any attention to others. It seemed that the eldest son of Prince Zhan's Mansion was deeply loved by Prince Beichen.
Ji Chen was jealous, his nails dug deep into his flesh, and his hatred towards Ji Yunxie increased.
The Second Princess Ji Fengwu looked at this scene, her gentle eyes flashing with a sharp light.
Di Ran held Ji Yunxie's hand and cast a cold gaze at the pale Ji Chen.
"Since the king has pleaded for you, let's forget about this matter. If there is a next time, I will not let it go so easily."
Ji Chen's face was pale, he bit his lips tightly, tears in his almond eyes. "As for what you said about Xie'er's intimate behavior with someone in West Lake, I want to explain that the woman you saw that day was me."
"Wha...what?!"
Ji Chen froze, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How…how is this possible?
If that woman was King Beichen, then wouldn't everything he did be...
One can imagine what the queen mother would do to him if this matter were reported back to the palace.
Even if he explained it was a misunderstanding, given the queen's personality, she probably wouldn't let him off easily.
When he thought of this, Ji Chen's face suddenly lost all color, his vision went dark, and he felt panic in his heart.
Di Ran glanced at him coldly and explained slowly: "Your Majesty has already issued an edict to announce Xie'er's identity. I believe you all know that Xie'er is my unmarried prince. This time I returned to the capital for the engagement, so I invited Xie'er to go out for a few days to cultivate our relationship."
He paused for a moment, his tone gradually turned colder: "I just never thought that this would cause misunderstandings and cause Xie'er to suffer so much injustice!"
Thinking back to the suffering Ah Xie endured after she left, Di Ran was still furious.
He wished he could kill all those who bullied him!
It's really cheap just to have a fight!
Ji Yunxie was stunned by Di Ran’s words. He felt strange when he heard people around him say that he was the future King of Beichen.
Now, he was even more stunned after hearing Di Ran’s words.
How did he become her prince before she even married him?
It’s no wonder that he didn’t know. After all, he was in a coma at the time and Di Ran didn’t tell him specifically.
As for Liang An, he stayed in the mansion and never went out, so naturally he had no idea what was going on outside.
Di Ran lowered his eyes to look at Ji Yunxie, holding hands with him, his eyes gentle yet with a hint of coldness and brutality.
"Xie'er, next time someone dares to bully you, don't show mercy and beat them back fiercely!"
"I have your back, don't let yourself down."
Ji Yunxie was still a little confused at the moment, but he nodded obediently after hearing Di Ran's words.
When Ji Fengwu saw how special Di Ran was to Ji Yunxie, her eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with complex emotion, and no one knew what she was thinking.
