. At the edge of the cliff, I saw her boatman's clothes and Little Imperial Uncle's horse...""You're saying Ge'er might have been with the King at that time" Xiao Yufu's heart skipped a beat."It's ju...There's no such thing as everlasting love in the world. It's just that when you have it and don't have it, your heart magnifies it infinitely. First love is often the most beautiful, but at this moment, Xiao Yufu has become loathsome in Qian Simin's eyes, just as Ge'er said.
“You're really persistent!” Xiao Yufu’s eyes could have eaten Xiao Yuge whole.
"Sister, your eyes are just right. It's better to stay out of the wind and don't cry. Otherwise, it will affect your vision, and one will be big and the other small in the future. That would be troublesome." Xiao Yuge looked at her eyes, suppressing a smile. Chu Tianqi's eyes had been trained for martial arts and archery for years, so her gaze was naturally different from that of a pampered young lady from the inner courtyard. These two different eyes together just felt strange no matter how you looked at them.
"You!"
"Sister, I still have to see the Empress Dowager, so I won't keep you company." With her objective accomplished, Xiao Yuge naturally left in a good mood. She enjoyed watching them hate her with all their might, their teeth grinding with fury yet unable to do anything about it.
Looking at Xiao Yuge's departing back, Xiao Yufei was so angry that her teeth were grinding. The hand she clenched tightly had even dug her nails deep into her palm, and she didn't even realize it. Perhaps the pain in her palm was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.
In the distance, the National Master stared impassively at this scene. After Xiao Yuge left, he turned to whisper something in his young apprentice's ear.
"Yes, Master!" The young apprentice nodded and walked straight towards Xiao Yufu.
The national teacher then turned and left.
Somewhere.
"Grand Master" Xiao Yufu probably couldn't have imagined this even in a dream. The most favored Grand Master of the current emperor would actually meet her alone, which made her very puzzled.
"Please sit, Princess!" The Grand Tutor gestured for her to take a seat and motioned for the extra people present to step back. His perpetually impassive face gave nothing away about his intentions.
Xiao Yufu hesitated for a moment, but still sat down as instructed. Seeing the national teacher calmly sipping tea in his hand, she couldn't help but feel anxious: "I wonder what the national teacher invited me here for" She thought to herself that she hadn't offended the national teacher, had she
"My Lady, please don't be anxious. Drink this cup of tea first and then we can talk." The Grand Master gestured for her to drink the tea in front of her.
Xiao Yufu looked at the cup of tea, her heart was very resistant, but the situation before her left her no choice but to drink it. After all, he was the national teacher, and she was just a county princess. What ability did she have to oppose him So she picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip.
"My lady, you're being too hasty. This fine tea should be savored slowly to truly appreciate its flavor." The Grand Tutor shook his head and personally poured her another cup. "Such a superior tea shouldn't be treated this way."
Xiao Yufu couldn't help but lose her temper: “Master Guoshi, if you have something to say, please speak directly. I am not familiar with Master Guoshi. It is unlikely that Master Guoshi invited me here just for tea. Please be frank.”
"Is it youthful impetuousness that causes such impatience How can one possibly bear the weight of being a queen in the future" The Imperial Advisor set down his teacup, perhaps with a little too much force, causing some to splash out.
"You, what do you mean" As soon as she heard him say that, Xiao Yufu was also dumbfounded.
“Miss Xiao, you are not a woman of good fortune, so you do not have the qualifications to become a queen.” The national master no longer beat around the bush. His eyes, which were originally small, now radiated an indescribable fierceness: “On the contrary, you are a solitary star destined for a life of wandering and an unfortunate end!”
“You, you’re talking nonsense!” Xiao Yufu couldn’t sit still upon hearing this: “Empty sees Master said with his own mouth that I am the daughter of auspicious qi, why do you say I am not And why do you say I am a lonely star of calamity!” She had been made a county princess because of her status as the daughter of auspicious qi. Now someone was saying she wasn’t the daughter of auspicious qi, how could she not be angry.
"At that time, the master of empty vision said that she was like a legitimate daughter but not quite. He referred to her as a vessel of fortune and luck. So, he was talking about the adopted daughter of the Xiangfu manor, who was a woman of fortune and luck, but he didn't explicitly say it was you. At that time, everyone thought you were the adopted daughter of the Xiangfu manor, so they automatically assumed you were the chosen one. In reality, Xiao Yuge is the true adopted daughter of the Xiangfu manor, and therefore she is the true vessel of fortune and luck!"
"Are you saying that Xiao Yuge is the true daughter of destiny" Xiao Yu'er became even more disbelieving and shouted, "How is this possible! She's just some nobody who appeared out of nowhere. How could she be the daughter of destiny Don't spread lies here!" She refused to believe it no matter what.
The National Teacher let out a cold snort: "Miss Xiao, she is not only the daughter of auspicious fortune, but her true identity is also very honorable. She is simply incomparable to you, a mere daughter of a wealthy family."
"I don't believe it!" Xiao Yufu had always envied Xiao Yu Ge since she was a child. Now that she had finally confirmed that she was the true legitimate daughter of the Xiao family, and had finally surpassed Xiao Yu Ge, how could she admit that Xiao Yu Ge was more noble than her: "You must have been bewitched by her, or bribed by her, so you dare to talk nonsense here!"
"Ms. Xiao, whether you believe it or not, these are facts. And fake things can never become true. She is a woman of good fortune, a person destined by heaven. So, the things that rightfully belong to her, you can't take them even if you exhaust all your thoughts. Just like the feelings between you and His Royal Highness the Prince. Influenced by destiny, they will eventually head towards her."
"No! Impossible!" Xiao Yuge exclaimed, refusing to believe this was true.
The Grand Tutor let out a cold snort: "The matter of the Chosen One of Qi will eventually come to light. Miss Xiao, do you think you'd end up losing all your wealth and reputation, ridiculed by everyone Think about it, then. Your marriage with the Prince will be annulled, and you'll become the subject of gossip and ridicule..."
Her reputation ruined Being laughed at by everyone Just thinking about these things, Xiao Yufu was already terrified. She had been insecure since she was a child and tried her best to prove herself. If all of this were true as the Imperial Advisor said, then she would be mocked by everyone in the capital. She couldn't bear that kind of strange gaze; she absolutely could not become like that.
"No! I will never become like that! You must be lying! It's not true!" She gripped her hands tightly, screaming hysterically, yet a voice inside her kept telling her he was right.
"Is that really so, Miss Xiao You're so intelligent, you see through it at once. But rest assured, Master since I invited you here privately to discuss this matter, I certainly wouldn't let such a thing happen. So, you needn't be afraid!"
"You, you really want to help me" Xiao Yufu seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and she desperately wanted to grasp it. her his whole life!Of course, he could never know, that all this, was actually a setup by Xiao Yuge!"Wait for me at the usual place!" Xiao Yuge gave him a knowing look.Ning Feng took a deep look at h...
