time, brother will definitely recover as before. Even if not as nimble as before, at least he can recover about 80-90%."As soon as Chu Tianqi heard that his leg could be cured, he was filled with hope..."This this this! It's truly infuriating!" The Emperor glared at his retreating figure, trembling with rage: "I don't know what kind of poison Xiao Yuge has used on them, but they're all bewitched like this!"
He knew all too well how stubborn his younger brother was. Though he appeared mild-mannered on the surface, once he set his mind to something, even he couldn't stop him. Back then, if not for his quick action, Lady Jia Min would have ended up a very different person.
What's more, his own son has now also been blinded by Xiao Yu Ge's fans. If his brother and son were to clash over Xiao Yu Ge, the consequences would be unimaginable.
This also made him feel more and more that keeping Xiao Yuge around was a disaster!
On a carriage.
"How did you get here Wasn't it said that you had something to go out and do" Xiao Yuge lazily leaned against Qian Tingxuan's arms. Now, probably the whole imperial city knew about their relationship, so even if they were seen, she didn't care.
"I can't bear to leave you unprotected. If I hadn't come, who knows how those people would have bullied you." Just thinking about it made Qian Tingxuan clench his jaw, especially that Harkaz, daring to speak ill of his little songbird right in front of him, it was infuriating.
"Even if you don't come, I can handle it." It'll just take a little longer though.
"So, you knew she was going to target you from the start" Qian Tingxuan was also a bit surprised. She seemed more astute than he had imagined.
"She bribed the three young masters of the capital to frame me, intending to ruin my reputation. When her plan failed, she came up with another scheme, using a banquet as an excuse to send me off in a forced marriage. Unfortunately, her carefully laid plans will come to naught."
"You knew from the start that Crown Prince had you attend to select a suitable candidate for marriage, which is why you are dressed so plainly" Qian Tingxuan suddenly felt like he couldn't see through her anymore. How did she know so much
"Let her have her moment in the spotlight, then. Harkza has his eyes on her now, so just watch as she ends up smashing her own feet with those stones." Xiao Yuge smiled mischievously, seeming to have everything under control.
According to the development of her past life, Xiao Yu'fu should have been given another play by him, it was that play that almost made her lose her virginity to Harkhaz. However, in this life, because of Qian Tingxuan's appearance, it changed Xiao Yu'fu's original plan, forcing her to use a stratagem to retreat.
However, Xiao Yuge knew that Xiao Yu'er wouldn't give up so easily. As long as Hakkaza was still here, the play of drugging and scheming would probably be performed again.
"But now that pig-headed prince seems to have taken a liking to you..." At the thought of this, Qian Tingxuan wanted to stab something.
"After you stirred things up like that, I bet he's not looking at me romantically anymore, but wants to stab me!"
"He dares!" Qian Tingxuan's eyes turned cold.
“Alright, calm down. He can't do anything to me, and you shouldn't go too far either. After all, if this leads to a war between our two countries, it would be a lose-lose situation. Besides, the old emperor of Red Flame Country is about to die. When that happens, if Hakza really goes back to inherit the throne and formally declares war on us, then we'll be in real trouble.” Back in her past life, she almost went to war with Red Flame Country as well, but the exact reason was a bit fuzzy in her memory. However, one thing was certain: the old emperor of Red Flame Country would die soon enough.
"How did you know the old emperor of Chiyan Kingdom was about to die" Qian Tingxuan immediately caught the discrepancy in her words. How could a woman, so far away, possibly know what was happening thousands of miles away
"I heard it by chance from someone that day," Xiao Yuge knew she had slipped up and quickly changed the subject: "I'm going back to Ruyi Pavilion, where do you want to go"
“Come back to the palace with me first, and I’ll send you back later!” Qian Tingxuan was sure that someone must be following them secretly. Since he had publicly declared today that Ge’er was his princess, he had to bring her back to the palace in front of everyone, so that those who coveted her would know that she now belonged to him.
However, he was puzzled. Many things, it seemed, Ge'er had known beforehand. What on earth was going on He didn't believe she had the ability to see the future.
"No, this is close to Ruyifang. I'll just go back directly." She still had to inquire about the progress of the Third Young Master of the Capital City's affairs. This time, she wanted to build up some hatred for Xiao Yufu.
"No!" Qian Tingxuan refused.
"Who cares if you can or not!" Xiao Yuge yanked open the curtain and leapt!
"Song'er!" Qian Tingxuan reached out to grab her, but he didn't even catch the corner of her clothes!
"Whoa!" Mingyang was startled and quickly stopped the carriage.
"Xiao Yuge!" Qian Ting immediately chased after Xiao Yuge, grabbing her arm. "You're being reckless! Jumping down from so high, what if..."
"Do you think, with my skills and at that speed just now, I wouldn't even be able to jump off a carriage" Xiao Yuge found him making a mountain out of a molehill. Seeing his tightly pursed lips, she knew she had been reckless just now, so she apologized softly: "I'm sorry... I'll be more careful next time..."
"You dare do that again!" Qian Tingxuan tightened his arms, pulling her closer. He frowned, annoyed by her recklessness, that she didn't put herself in his heart, and even more annoyed that he hadn't caught her. What if...
He wouldn't allow for any what-ifs, he couldn't let anything happen to her under his watch, and most importantly, he couldn't afford to fail to protect her!
"Don't be angry, I was wrong, wasn't I..." Xiao Yu Ge didn't expect that she had been rash and made him so angry. To appease him, she tiptoed up and kissed him lightly on the lips like a dragonfly.
"Wrong, you get punished!"
Before she could even make a run for it, his hand went around her head, ducking down to press a punishing kiss to her lips...
Time seemed to stand still at that moment, the warm sun setting, casting golden light upon them, making them appear like a dream. A gentle breeze brushed past their ears, whispering of the most enigmatic love and affection in this world...
Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Master!" An Ling just helped Xiao Yufu walk into the courtyard, and when she turned her head back, she saw Chu Tianqi walking in with a gloomy face.
"An Ling, get out!" Chu Tianqi's face was gloomy, looking rather frightening.
"Yes!" An Ling subconsciously glanced at Xiao Yufu, then nervously retreated.
"Brother..." Seeing Chu Tianqi like this, Xiao Yufu softly called out, hoping to elicit his sympathy.
"Why are you doing this" Chu Tianqi stared at her, he couldn't understand at all. How could the once gentle and kind Fu'er, who wouldn't even hurt a butterfly, become so scheming
"Brother, what are you talking about What did I do" Xiao Yufu's heart skipped a beat, but she still put on an innocent face.
"You're still pretending!" Chu Tianqi saw her like this, the anger in his heart was ignited all of a sudden, and he slammed those imitated letters in front of her: "You asked someone to imitate Ge'er's handwriting, so everything is your doing!"Your Highness, I am not afraid of death, but..." Yue'er hadn't finished her words when a sudden arrow flew from nowhere, piercing through her back and chest. Her body swayed!Mingyang leaped forward to...
