The Past Life 83

 Inside the emperor's son-in-law's manor...0

Princess Qingluo looked at the few people who had stopped her from going out. Her face darkened.

"What are you guys doing here? I am the princess. Who permitted you to stop me from going out?"

The guards did not move. Their faces were expressionless and cold. "I'm here by the order from the emperor."

Princess Qingluo almost spurted out a mouthful of blood. Her father believed that Dongfang Yu was related to the Ninth Emperor? It was ridiculous to treat her like this just because of a rumor.

"Get out of the way!"

She shouted sternly with a cold face.

The guards remained motionless. "This is the emperor's order. I dare not to release the princess. Princess, please go back and rest."

Princess Qingluo was so angry she slapped the guard's face.

The guard remained stiff, not even showing any expression.

Before coming here, they were all mentally prepared because they knew Princess Qingluo had a bad temper. 

This task was not easy for them.

"Mother..."

Mu Qingya appeared behind Princess Qingluo. She touched her shoulder and shook her head. "If Grandfather won't let you go out, there is definitely no way. If you go out, it means that you disobey the decree. Grandfather is the emperor, after all. It is not good to disobey him."

Qingluo calmed down after hearing Mu Qingya's words. She suddenly remembered Little Nine.

'So many things wouldn't have happened if Little Nine hadn't come back.

'She should not have come back!'

Qingluo took a deep breath and looked at these guards coldly. She then turned away and walked toward the courtyard in a huff.

Old Lady Mu had long hidden in the back, not daring to come forward.

She dared to show off herself outside using her status as the princess' mother-in-law, but she did not dare say anything in front of these people.

The one who brought people here was Sima Yan, who was obeying the emperor's order.

She was not that stupid to go against the emperor.

Mu Qingya saw that Qingluo no longer made a fuss and subconsciously felt relieved. She smiled and turned to the guards. "Please move aside; I want to go out to do something."

The guards looked at Mu Qingya coldly. "This is the emperor's order. No one from the emperor's son-in-law's manor is allowed to go out."

Mu Qingya's smile suddenly froze.

'No one from the emperor's son-in-law's manor is allowed to go out? Including me?'

Her face turned cold. The smile on her face disappeared as she clenched her fists tightly.

However, soon, she calmed down and asked smilingly, "Did Grandfather say why I am not allowed to go out?"

"I don't know, but this is an order from the emperor," the guard spoke coldly.

Mu Qingya took a deep breath and slowly turned around, walking toward the backyard.

Her eyes sunk, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

However, she did not make a fuss like Princess Qingluo. Instead, she was nice and obedient.

After Mu Qingya left, the two guards stood on both sides of the gate, holding their weapons expressionlessly.

Mu Qingya went to the main hall and found that Mu Yi and Old Lady Mu had been waiting for her for a long time.

Qingluo's face darkened, and her eyes were filled with rage.

"Qingluo..." Mu Yi pondered for a while. "What did the emperor say to you? Why is he suddenly not allowing us to go out now?"

Qingluo stiffened. "It was Sima Yan who did it."
