"You said she wanted to see the imperial grandson's daughter someday. I also know that the imperial grandmother values rules the most, so she naturally has to make preparations in advance..."
Beigong Qianling turned over the half-coin-thick family rules on the table, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you memorizing the family rules these days?"
A trace of loneliness flashed across Xiang Yinli's eyes. She sat on the chair in frustration, lowered her head and said, "If you cared about me, shouldn't you have known about it a long time ago?"
Beigong Qianling pursed her lips and said, "Then... you often come back to Xianghou Mansion, why don't you remind your sister?"
Xiang Yinli frowned in confusion, looked up at him, his eyes full of grievances, and said: "Brother Qianling, a woman with such a high position and authority as eldest sister, does she still need to be reminded by me? How could I know that she is here?
What are you so busy doing that you forget such an important thing?
"Besides, doesn't His Highness the Crown Prince like her very much? Shouldn't His Highness be the one to remind me of this matter? My husband didn't give me a heads up. It was me who thought of saving a hand to protect myself, and I luckily escaped.
, not only are you not happy, but you are angry at me? She is your royal brother’s wife. Why are you so anxious when you hear that she has been punished? Why do you care so much about her?!"
"Pa!" A clear and loud slap echoed throughout the room.
"You are presumptuous!" Beigong Qianling scolded angrily.
Xiang Yinli's eyes were dull for a while, and a crystal tear overflowed from his eyes.
There was a burning pain on her cheek. She raised her trembling hand and gently stroked the red and swollen cheek without saying anything.
Did he hit her? He reached out and hit her because of Xiang Yini?
Seeing her crying, Beigong Qianling's heart skipped a beat. How could he be so impulsive!
He frowned, knelt down, hurriedly raised his hand to wipe away the tears that kept flowing out of her, and said: "Bi'er, I'm sorry, I don't know what's wrong, I'm really not a human being..."
"Let me tell you what's wrong with you." Xiang Yinli's eyes were lonely and dull, and she said with heartache, "You like big sister, even more than me."
Hearing this, Beigong Qianling swallowed guiltily and said softly: "What did you say? You are so kind, how could I fall in love with someone else?"
Xiang Yinli looked into his eyes and said, "Do you really think I am good?"
Beigong Qianling stood up, hugged her, raised his hand and stroked her head, and said: "Little fool, brother Qianling will always love you."
Xiang Yinli closed his eyes and cried in frustration.
Beigong Qianling breathed out softly. He was still too impulsive. Although he cared about Xiang Yini, it was still unknown whether his relationship with Xiang Yini would work out. If he divorced Xiang Yili at the current moment, in Beigong
In front of Teng Xiao, I’m afraid even my life is in danger!
After thinking about it, he still patiently coaxed Xiang Yinli. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to grit his teeth and create the illusion of harmony with her.
The sweet potato family background.
Chu Jiaoli said goodbye to Chu Jiaoxing and walked out. She stood at the door, glanced at the slanting sunset, breathed out gently and said, "It's time to go back."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to step onto the carriage, when a gust of spring breeze blew open the curtain of a carriage, and sitting inside was the brightly dressed Xiang Yini.
Chu Jiaoli was stunned for a moment and muttered: "Wasn't she punished to write the family rules? Where is she going?"
After thinking about it, she frowned and followed quietly.
The carriage went to the alley at the corner. After several twists and turns, it went further and further off the road.
After about half an hour, the carriage arrived at the bumpy hillside in a remote suburb.
Chu Jiaoli hid in a bamboo forest and gasped, "I'm so exhausted. I ran so far. I should have come here on horseback."
I saw Xiang Yini getting off the carriage and walking towards a thatched house in the distance.
Chu Jiaoli looked at the guards guarding the carriage and Xiang Yini walking alone, and suddenly felt confused.
Aren't they afraid that Xiang Yini will be in danger?
She followed Xiang Yini with some confusion, and heard a man's voice coming from the thatched house.
"What a beautiful little beauty!"
"That person really didn't lie to us. A beautiful woman really came to our door!"
"I didn't expect that we, who can't even afford to go to a brothel, would encounter such a great thing!"
Chu Jiaoli frowned and wanted to listen carefully. After waiting for a long time, she didn't hear Xiang Yini's voice calling for help. She was really puzzled.
She rolled her eyes, slipped to the window, peeked in secretly, and saw an unsightly scene.
Three men dressed as woodcutters were bullying Xiang Yini. Xiang Yini's beautiful eyes were filled with tears, as if she was suffering, she lowered her head in fear and did not resist.
Chu Jiaoli gritted her teeth angrily, rushed in immediately, looked at the indecent Xiang's charming hand, and squeezed his wrist.
"Hey, here comes another beauty." The man said with a wicked smile.
Xiang Yini stared in surprise, what is she doing here?!
Chu Jiaoli frowned, took his hand, turned him over and captured him, and screams like a slaughtering pig came from the room.
"Where did this damn girl come from to ruin our good deeds!" Another woodcutter yelled and walked towards her.
Chu Jiaoli pushed the woodcutter away, and at some point she stretched out her hand and hit the approaching woodcutter on the stomach, causing him to scream in pain.
She knocked down several woodcutters in a few strokes, then walked to Xiang Yini, helped her up, and said: "Sister Yini, it's okay. Let's leave quickly. Don't come to such a dangerous place again." p>
Unexpectedly, Xiang Yini, who was supported by her, pushed her away with all her strength. Chu Jiaoli opened her eyes in surprise and said, "You..."
Xiang Yini gritted her teeth angrily and said, "Are you following me?"
Chu Jiaoli was stunned for a moment, then frowned worriedly and said: "Okay, I admit that it's my fault for following you, but I didn't follow you today, you..."
"Stay out of my business! Get out of here!" Xiang Yini roared at her.
Chu Jiaoli looked at her in confusion. Seeing her hostile eyes, she instantly became angry. She gritted her teeth and nodded, saying: "I was kind enough to save you, but you did this to me. Well, this is
You said it, I don’t care about you anymore! You can fend for yourself!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she stormed out of the door angrily and returned to the Prince's Mansion the way she came.
The journey was long and it was getting late when we returned home.
Stepping into Chunli Hall, you will see Beigong Tengxiao sitting on the throne.
She lowered her head thoughtfully, bowed, and said, "Hail, Your Highness."
Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, patted the armrests of the throne with four fingers regularly, and said in a gloomy voice: "Zhonggong Huanli, half an hour has passed since Li Youshi, and you have repeatedly touched my bottom line.
, very fun?”
"I know I was wrong..." Chu Jiaoli responded absently.
