Chapter 337: Widowhood?

you show me this small medicine bottle"Ye Lin hesitated for a moment, but still handed the small medicine bottle to Xiao Yuge 。Xiao Yu Ge took the small bottle of medicine and looked at it, but it did..."Father! I told you, I didn't push her! Don't blame me!" Xiao Yufu broke free from the servant's grasp and rushed to her mother's side: "Mother, believe me, I really didn't push Ge'er, I really didn't!"

"Did you push her We all saw it clearly! Even if we ignore this time, you bought a hit to assassinate Ge'er, causing her to fall off the cliff. This is still true, isn't it" Qian Sicheng couldn't hold back anymore. He had known that Ge'er was returning to the Xiangfu today, so he came here specifically. He thought that on New Year's Day, Ge'er wouldn't ignore him, and then he would explain everything to Ge'er and ask for her forgiveness. Unexpectedly, his plan was ruined by Xiao Yufu, how could he not be angry

"Brother Sichen, I, I didn't..." Xiao Yufu hadn't expected Qian Sichen to find out about these things. Her flushed face instantly paled.

As a princess of Guoan, how can you have such a vicious mind and such a narrow heart How can you marry into the East Palace This palace will tell the emperor and cancel our engagement! From loving so much to hating so much, it all happened in an instant.

"No! Brother Sichen, you can't do this to me! You mustn't!" Xiao Yufu was utterly panicked. She hadn't expected the consequences to be so severe. If she were disengaged by the Crown Prince, then who in the world would dare to marry her Wouldn't she have to become a lifelong nun in an abbey

At that time, those who had been jilted or whose engagement had not yet been consummated and whose husbands had died unexpectedly would go to the nunnery. They would call it "cultivating purity" and say they were there because of their past sins in a previous life, so they were suffering retribution in this life and therefore had to purify themselves there to accumulate merit for their next life.

“Lan Zhao Nation will not accept such a vicious woman as mistress of the Eastern Palace, nor does it need someone like her to help with the nation’s affairs.” From beginning to end, Qian Si Chen had never believed in the saying of a “fated woman”. In his view, the fate of a country should not depend on a woman. It was simply ridiculous.

“No! Brother Sichun, I was wrong! I know I was wrong! You can’t break off our engagement, you can’t! We’ve been intimate, you can’t treat me this way!” By this point, Xiao Yufu had completely disregarded her dignity. Asking her to leave Brother Sichun was the same as killing her.

Her flustered eyes, which countless people had seen, seemed to make Xiao Zhan understand something. Coupled with the fact that she actually said such shameless words in public, he was so angry that his whole body trembled. He roared: "Come here! Take Miss into custody!"

"Father..." This was Xiao Yufu's first time seeing him lose his temper like this, and she was truly frightened.

"Take it with you!" Xiao Zhan only felt a sharp pain in his chest, hurriedly covering his chest, staggering and almost falling to the ground.

"Prime Minister!"

"Father!"

Qiansi Chen and Chutian Qi hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

"Your Highness, it's my fault. It's my failure as a father that led to this situation today. Breaking off the engagement is no small matter, I beg Your Highness to reconsider!" Xiao Zhan knew that if he couldn't appease the Crown Prince, Fu’er would truly be disengaged. With both his daughters being rejected by the Crown Prince, he, the Prime Minister, would have no face left to remain in court.

Thousand Thoughts tightened his lips, wanting to say something, but seeing Xiao Zhan's pale face, the words that reached his mouth were swallowed back with difficulty. These were also Ge’er’s most cared for parents. If he had given them a bad result, Ge’er probably wouldn't forgive him for the rest of her life.

"Your Majesty, please rest well. This Palace shall take its leave now."

"Qi'er, send off His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your father!" Xiao Zhan clutched his chest and sat aside, taking deep breaths.

"Yes!" Chu Tianqi, though he had a million reasons not to, still respectfully gestured to Qian Sicheng with a welcoming hand. "Your Highness, please."

Qian Si Chen only gave him a meaningful look and said nothing. Instead, she strode away.

"My lord, please take care of your health." Mrs. Xiao massaged her husband's chest as she advised him, "My lord, you don't have to worry. Although the prince doesn't know what's important, the emperor does, so they won't break off the engagement."

"I'm not angry about this," Xiao Zhan finally managed to say. "I'm angry that you say that current Fu'er is still the same innocent and kind Fu'er she used to be She just wanted to kill Ge'er!"

He regretted even thinking about it. If the Wangye and the others weren't around, that icy water below... what if Ge'er had fallen in She would have been lost for sure! And the railing on this stone bridge was already broken, Fu'er knew that. Bringing Ge'er up here, her intention was already obvious enough.

Mrs. Xiao, upon hearing this, could not help but weep: "Perhaps this child is simply too extreme. We can't blame her entirely. You see, from childhood to now, she has always been so cautious, afraid of making a mistake and displeasing us. It's our fault as adults."

"Yes, it's my fault!" Xiao Zhan also regretted it deeply. If he hadn't indirectly caused the death of Lan Yi's family back then, Fu Er wouldn't have been lost, and she wouldn't have switched identities with Ge Er. She would be the undisputed eldest daughter, and perhaps she wouldn't be like this now.

"Master, compared to Fu'er, I am more worried about Ge'er." Just thinking of Ge'er, Madam Xiao couldn't help but shed tears.

"Gē'er is now protected by the King, so she should be safe. Besides, the King personally promised here today that as long as Gē'er agrees, he will marry her with a grand procession of ten miles. Though she can't become the Crown Princess, marrying the King wouldn't be a bad outcome for Gē'er."

When it comes to this, Madam Xiao felt even more anxious: "Master, let's not talk about how old Prince Wang and the young lady are. What feelings could there possibly be between them Just, just..." Some words she didn't know how to say.

"What's wrong" Xiao Zhan frowned, sensing that his wife had something to say.

"Just that, that..." Mrs. Xiao leaned close to Xiao Zhan's ear and whispered something softly.

When Xiao Zhan heard this, his eyes widened: "Is what my wife said true"

"Indeed! This maidservant has just checked with Ge'er, and she remains pure."

"Perhaps the king is a man of virtue who adheres to propriety. It also shows he's an upright gentleman." Xiao Zhan still chose to believe in the king.

"Lord, whether this prince is a true gentleman, we don't know. But those rumors circulating outside are not unfounded. A prince known for his many romantic affairs would actually take pity on our Ge'er Is that possible Besides, our Ge'er is so beautiful, even Qi'er... They spend all day together. How could a normal man remain unmoved"

"Speaking of which..." Xiao Zhan seemed to start doubting too, perhaps this was the reason why the King had remained unmarried for so many years. If that singer married into the family, wouldn't she... be a widow"轉碼失敗！請您使用右上換源切換源站閱讀或者直接前往源網站進行閱讀！
