Su Yan widened her eyes, her fury turning into laughter. "Kill me? Only if you dare! Seventh Prince, don’t forget, this is the Imperial Palace of the Great Nan Dynasty!"

Cang Mo, being an arrogant man, had never been provoked by a woman like this before and was furious.

His expression instantly turned icy.

"Very well, I shall kill you now, and let’s see if the Emperor Chu stands by a mere palace maid or by my side!"

With that, he struck his palm toward Su Yan’s chest.

Su Yan reacted swiftly, pulling Su Ya aside to narrowly avoid the strike.

Knowing she was no match for him, she immediately shouted, "Help!"

The guards nearby the Imperial Garden heard her cries and rushed over at once.

"Lady Su, what happened?" The leader of the guards asked reverently upon seeing her.

"It’s nothing. It’s just someone acting recklessly and arrogantly in the Imperial Palace, and I couldn’t bear it. Please escort this arrogant Seventh Prince to have tea with the Emperor."

Su Yan’s eyes were fixed on Cang Mo.

Cang Mo hadn’t expected she would actually dare to call the guards, so he withdrew his hand, his gaze becoming increasingly sinister.

Today, he had simply intended to have a little fun with Nanzhao Suya.

Yet this woman dared to jump in, not only ruining his plans but also causing a commotion.

If it reached the Emperor Chu, although the Emperor might not actually do anything to him, it would still be embarrassing.

It was better not to cause a scene in front of the Emperor.

With a flick of his sleeve, he turned to leave, deciding not to lower himself to her level.

Seeing him leave, Su Yan quickly called for someone to stop him.

"Please stay, Seventh Prince. Do you plan to leave without apologizing to the Princess?"

"Indeed, you have wronged this Princess, and this Princess cannot let you leave so easily.

Seventh Prince, you had better apologize to this Princess," Su Ya also spoke sternly.

Cang Mo had his back to them, hiding his expression at that moment. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

After a brief pause, he turned back, giving them a cold smile:

"Did I wrong the Princess? I only saw the Princess admiring the red plum blossoms, so I picked one to give to the Princess. Is that also considered wronging the Princess?"
