Chapter 1697: Chapter 1698: Flawless Disguise

The Right Protector remained utterly unfazed and undisturbed, saying nothing as he entered the Quiet Heart Garden.

He was now the Emperor of Dongqing, not speaking with the guards to maintain the Emperor’s dignity, which was usual.

The guards stationed at the Quiet Heart Garden found nothing amiss and respectfully stepped aside, allowing the Right Protector to enter.

Upon entering the Quiet Heart Garden, the eunuchs and palace maids immediately knelt, bowing, ”Greetings, Your Majesty.”

The Right Protector didn’t even glance at them as he went inside.

Once inside, the Right Protector finally spoke, using the voice of Dongfang Tianyang, and said to the eunuchs and palace maids serving inside, ”You may all leave now.”

The highest level of disguise not only mimics appearance but also voice, leaving no flaws to be found.

”Yes.” The eunuchs and palace maids serving inside immediately departed.

The Right Protector had come in alone, with those who had come with him remaining outside the Quiet Heart Garden, to prevent any suspicion. Seeing those people leave, the Right Protector walked toward An Jing, whose hands and feet were bound by iron chains.

Getting beside An Jing, he lowered his voice, ”Madame Xiao, I am here to rescue you.”

An Jing looked at his face and sneered coldly, ”Dongfang Tianyang, do you think this kind of joke is funny?”

Only then did the Right Protector use his own voice, ”I am not Dongfang Tianyang. I have disguised myself as Dongfang Tianyang to rescue you, Lady An. This is something your husband asked me to give you; he said once you see this, you will believe I’m here to save you.”

With that, the Right Protector showed the Silver Ring to An Jing.

At the sight of it, An Jing immediately stood up in shock. It was her husband’s ring, the same one she had personally placed on his ring finger, which he had never taken off since.

If the person before her was truly Dongfang Tianyang, he would definitely not possess her husband’s ring.

Considering that the person before her even changed his voice, making it no longer that of Dongfang Tianyang, An Jing believed him and asked, ”So, how do you plan to get me out?”

The Right Protector replied, ”Lady An, please be patient, I have my ways. All you need to do is cooperate with me; your husband is waiting to reunite with you.”

Her husband is waiting to reunite with her...

These words had an enormous allure for An Jing. While carefully tucking the ring into her bosom, she solemnly declared, ”I will cooperate.”

The Right Protector nodded, and then, using Dongfang Tianyang’s voice, loudly called out, ”Come in.”

Immediately, two guards entered.

The Right Protector said, ”Release her from those chains.”

With the face of Dongfang Tianyang, the two guards dared not question the Right Protector about why he wanted the chains undone, especially since they had been fastened just yesterday. They simply complied and released the chains from An Jing’s wrists and ankles.

Once her hands and feet were free, An Jing rubbed her wrists and ankles to relieve the soreness.

Those chains were truly heavy.

Seeing An Jing free, the Right Protector commanded, ”Prepare the horse, I am leaving the palace.”

The two guards grew even more puzzled, and one hesitated for a moment before boldly asking, ”May I ask why Your Majesty is leaving the palace at this hour?” It was indeed deep into the night.

The Right Protector immediately responded in anger, ”Must I report to you why I am leaving the palace?”

”Forgive us, Your Majesty, forgive us.” The two guards immediately knelt, stricken with fear. ”We are concerned for Your Majesty’s safety, worried that something might happen to you if you leave the palace at night.”
