a bandit, how could he possibly surrender so obediently He held both Xiao Yufu and Xiao Yuge before them: "One for one!""No! One for two!" Qian Si Chen never expected Huo Lang to resort to underhanded..."Mother!" Qian Si Chen wanted to chase after her, but he turned his head and saw Xiao Yu Ge beside him. He hurriedly stepped forward: "Ge'er, listen to me explain, things are not what you see..."

Xiao Yu ge looked at him with tears in her eyes, subconsciously taking a step back. Her face was filled with extreme disappointment. She then covered her mouth and ran away, this action simply portrayed heartbreak and disappointment to the fullest.

"Song! Song!" Qian Si Chen desperately wanted to chase after her.

"Your Highness, the Emperor is still waiting for you!" An Gonggong stopped him.

Her thoughts were in turmoil, a tangled mess, yet she had no choice but to head towards the main tent.

An Ling also hurried into the room to comfort her master.

At this time, whispers began to circulate among the crowd:

"This county princess and Miss Xiao Er are both going to marry into the Prince's mansion as concubines, how can they be so impatient and shameless"

"Miss Xiao Er only just returned safely yesterday, yet the county princess is already so eager to climb onto Prince's bed. Her intentions are impure! I heard that the prince truly admires Miss Xiao Er now."

"I also heard that this Miss Xiao Er's fall wasn't an accident..."

"Surely... that can't be true! No matter what they say, they are sisters after all!"

"And even if they were related by blood, wouldn't their sisterly bond pale in comparison to the allure of immense wealth and fortune"

One person said a word, another added a word, and the story spread like wildfire. It became more and more elaborate with each telling, so detailed that it sounded as if everyone had witnessed it firsthand.

"Little Song!"

Chu Tianqi and Ning Feng chased after Xiao Yuge together. Seeing her heartbroken and tearful, they didn't know how to comfort her.

"Brother, did I do something wrong Why are they treating me like this" Xiao Yu Ge threw herself into Chu Tian Qi's arms and burst into tears. Gee! She even started to admire her own acting skills.

"The song wasn't wrong, it was them! It was them!" Seeing her cry so heartbreakingly, Chu Tianqi also felt a sharp pain in his heart.

"Brother, I've thought about ending our marriage, about letting them have their happiness. But it was him who told me he loved me, who promised to marry me. Why would he lie to me Why treat me this way I won't love him anymore, I won't love him anymore..."

"Fu'er is not that kind of person, I think there must be some misunderstanding here" Ning Feng on the side still didn't quite believe it.

His words instantly ignited Chu Tianqi's anger: "You saw it with your own eyes just now, and you still don't believe it! All the evidence is right there, how long are you going to deceive yourself"

"I..." Ning Feng was momentarily speechless.

"Brother, what are you guys talking about What evidence do you have Did you find out something" Xiao Yuge's ears were still working fine.

"Song'er..." Looking into Xiao Yuge's innocent eyes, Chu Tianqi still didn't know how to speak. He was afraid that after knowing the truth, Song'er would be even more heartbroken.

"Brother!" Xiao Yuge also anticipated that he wouldn't easily speak it out, so she turned her head and asked Ning Feng, "Feng Gege, what do you think"

"I, I don't know anything. Ger, please don't overthink things."

"No! You know! You all know someone tampered with my and Princess Hui Min's horses, that someone deliberately made me fall off the cliff! You don't speak up because, in your eyes, since I'm still alive, everything can just be swept under the rug. Isn't it true that in your hearts, the weak side is always right Because I'm strong, therefore, I'm wrong and deserve to die!"

"Ge'er, it's not like that!" Seeing her heartbroken appearance, Chu Tianqi tried his best to explain.

"I once thought that if I treated each and every one of you sincerely, you would treat me sincerely in return. From a young age, I was treated differently by you, and I never blamed you for it; when you abandoned me on Mount Langshan, leaving me feeling terrified and helpless, I still didn't blame you. I willingly risked my life to collect herbs from the cliff for you, but you, time and time again, trampled on my sincerity. Do you all think that my heart doesn't hurt That I deserve to be treated this way"

Xiao Yu ge's heart was broken, she shook her head sadly: "You are all my brothers who I have called for over ten years, the ones I love the most! How can you treat me like this I don't want to be nice to you anymore! Not ever again!" After saying that, she turned and ran away frantically!

"Song! Song!" Chu Tianqi ignored his pain and chased after him, but still fell to the ground.

"Ge'er!" Ning Feng also chased after him, seeing Chu Tianqi fall to the ground, he turned back and helped Chu Tianqi onto the wheelchair.

"Ning Feng, don't worry about me! Go chase Xiao Yu Ge quickly!" Chu Tian Qi didn't even care about himself as he urged Ning Feng to go after Xiao Yu Ge.

Ning Feng fell silent.

"What are you standing there for Hurry up!" Chu Tianqi saw that he hadn't moved and became even more anxious.

"What's the point of chasing after her Are you really going to tell her that cruel truth In one night, the people she loves most have both betrayed her. Have you considered if she can bear it"

Even Ning Feng's words left Chu Tianqi speechless. He punched the wheelchair in frustration.

During a hunt, a huge scandal broke out. The Guonan County Princess climbed onto the bed of the Crown Prince. The entire capital city quickly spread rumors about it. Xiao Zhan was so angry that he almost fell ill. In a fit of rage, he confined Xiao Yufu to her courtyard.

"Damn it! Look at the mess you've made!" The Emperor glared at the pile of memorials on the table, so angry he flung one straight at Qian Si Chen who was kneeling before him.

Thousand Thoughts knelt silently there. Compared to being beaten and scolded, he was more worried about Ge'er.

“You’ve been close to that girl for years. I thought because you grew up together, you would follow my lead. Now, seeing you about to get married, how could you do such a thing Do you know what people are saying in the capital right now” The Emperor’s voice rose with anger.

"Father, it is all my fault. I am willing to accept any punishment!"

"You certainly deserve punishment!" The Emperor patted his chest, taking a deep breath: "Right now, the most important thing is for you to comfort Ge'er. Otherwise, if she comes to break off the engagement at this time, I can't protect you either!"

You attract what you fear.

"Your Majesty, Miss Xiao Er requests an audience!"

"What" The Emperor unconsciously glanced at Qian SiChen, his eyes sharp. He spoke in a low voice, "Bring her in!"

"I, Xiao Yuge, pay my respects to Your Majesty!" After entering, Xiao Yuge did not look at Qian Si Chen beside her. Instead, she bowed to the Emperor. Her calm face showed no joy, anger, sorrow, or fear.

"Song'er, you still have injuries. Why aren't you at home resting properly If there's anything, just wait until your wounds are healed before we talk about it." The emperor faced Xiao Yuge, his tone surprisingly kind.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. My injuries are no longer serious."

"Then, what brings you to see me today" The Emperor started to feel a headache coming on.

Xiao Yu Ge pursed her lips and subconsciously glanced at Qian Si Chen beside her: "The concubine wishes to request the emperor's grace and dissolve the engagement between myself and the prince!"e was afraid that if she struggled, it would hurt his injuries. So she just let him do whatever he wanted. 。"You might find all sorts of bugs in the grass, and you're tired. Take a good rest." 。He nev...
