Li Hongyuan was so infuriated that he laughed.
With a slight headache, he rubbed his temples: "Jiang Ning, oh, Jiang Ning, do you think Mu Jian is a nobody? You casually detain him and believe no one would notice?"
Mu Jian usually keeps a low profile, not seeking attention.
However, having grown up with Li Hongyuan and now serving as the leader of the Right Imperial Guards of the Crown Prince's East Palace, he is not a person who can just disappear on a whim.
Jiang Ning nonchalantly picked up a small dumpling and stuffed it into her mouth.
She didn't care a bit about Li Hongyuan's fury.
Li Hongyuan said: "Send a word to your home right away, tell Prime Minister Jiang to let Mu Jian go."
"No," she replied.
"Jiang Ning!"
Li Hongyuan didn't expect her to refuse so firmly and decisively.
If it were any other woman who dared to say these words to him, he would think the world had gone mad.
