Chapter 145 Not only did he ruin his own reputation, but he also ruined his cousin's future.
Chapter 145 Not only did he ruin his own reputation, but he also ruined his cousin's future.
Jiang Ci'an saw that her little face was red, and he didn't know whether it was because she was angry or cold.
He took a step forward and pulled the person into his arms.
"Okay, let's go back."
"Um……"
Shen Changle looked back, and the pressure on her body dissipated, and she turned back into the lovely little princess she used to be.
Jiang Ci'an smiled and helped her put on the hood.
He half-supported and half-carried the person back to the carriage.
After getting on the carriage, Shen Changle did not forget to instruct Bai Zhi:
"Find a warmer carriage for Jiuxing. Also, his food can be the same as mine."
Even the white pheasants were surprised.
How does this treatment feel like punishment?
Not only did we move from a large tent bunk bed to a single room, but the food also saw a qualitative leap!
This is basically a reward in disguise!
But as a maid, she had no right to say more.
He just nodded and accepted the order.
Bai Zhi stepped back and Jiang Ci'an closed the car door.
He came back and sat beside the couch, coaxing Changle to sleep.
The little guy was lying on the couch and wasn't being polite.
Holding his fingers, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
"Otherwise, why don't you come up and hold me while I sleep?"
Jiang Ci'an looked at the clingy little goblin in his arms, lowered his head, put his forehead against hers, and smiled dotingly.
"What if White Pheasant comes back to keep watch?"
"It's okay, I told her not to keep watch tonight."
"But this bed is so narrow, can it accommodate two people?"
"Okay!"
Seeing that he was still hesitant, she moved to the side of the couch.
The thin little man turned sideways, leaving most of the space for him.
"Come on, Ci'an~"
Her face flushed as she whispered his name seductively.
He patted the empty space on the bed.
Seeing this, Jiang Ci'an finally took off his outer robe and got on the bed.
Embrace the sweet and soft little cutie and kiss her gently.
"Okay, go to sleep, my little princess."
Shen Changle rubbed his chin.
She snuggled into Jiang Ci'an's arms again and finally fell into a deep sleep.
On the second day, I had breakfast with Shen Tingyu.
Shen Changle stayed in the carriage and taught Jiang Ci'an how to paint his nails.
The time was so peaceful that she felt doubtful.
"Eh? Qi Qiongyu hasn't bothered me since last night? I'm really not used to it."
Jiang Ci'an chuckled when he heard it.
"Why, you prefer being with her to being your husband?"
"What are you talking about? I'll hit you!"
Shen Changle scolded him and pretended to be angry to explain:
"I'm just curious, it's not like her character!"
That guy always obeys Lu Mingchao's orders.
He asked her to cause trouble, there was no way she wouldn't listen...
Just as I was wondering, I heard someone outside the car say:
"Your Highness, Miss Qi requests an audience."
Shen Changle raised his eyebrows, looking very proud.
"What do you think I'm talking about?"
Then he raised his voice.
"Send it to me!"
She was thinking...
She humiliated Lu Mingchao so badly last night that he lost face in front of everyone.
It’s a pity not to let those who admire him know about such a great news!
I couldn't wait to tell her, wanting to see her surprised and distressed expression.
But unexpectedly, Qi Qiongyu already knew about it, and she would never forget it...
Qi Qiongyu was ordered to go inside and knelt down to pay her respects.
"Your Highness, I bow to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Shen Changle, who was sitting at the table painting her nails, immediately heard that her voice was wrong.
He looked up.
Sure enough, I saw that her face looked very bad and her eyes were swollen.
She couldn't help but ask one more question:
"What's wrong with you?"
Qi Qiongyu was vague and did not give a direct answer.
"I have nothing to do... I have come here to discuss the Analects with Her Highness the Princess."
Shen Changle frowned slightly when he saw her condition.
He pulled Jiang Ci'an to his side and called her over.
"Put aside the Analects for now. Come here and take a look at the nails that the Prince Consort painted for me."
Qi Qiongyu raised her eyes in surprise.
It seemed that she didn't expect Shen Changle to be so nice to her today.
He still stood up timidly and sat across from the table.
Seeing how loving they are as a couple, my heart feels like it's bleeding.
But she bit her lower lip, held back her tears, nodded and said:
"The prince consort is truly... doting on the princess. He's even willing to accompany her on something as girly as painting her nails..."
The more Shen Changle looked at her, the more he felt that something was wrong with her.
especially……
Why is she wrapped up so tightly in this warm carriage?
There's even a fur collar around his neck!
Didn't she always dislike wearing collars, saying they were ugly?
You don’t even take off your cloak. Aren’t you hot?
She tilted her head and ordered:
"You took the cloak, and I will dye some for you."
Hearing this, Jiang Ci'an was still a little confused.
When did the two of them become so close?
Can we sit together and paint our nails?
When he saw Qi Qiongyu's slightly panicked rejection, he finally understood...
It turned out that Changle had discovered something!
"No, it's not necessary, Your Highness. I... I don't like it..."
When Qi Qiongyu heard Shen Changle's order, she not only did not take off her cloak, but wrapped it even tighter.
The hand under the cloak was tightly grasping the front of the cloak.
This made Shen Changle even more suspicious.
He lowered his voice and said threateningly:
"Do you want Baizhi to help you solve it?"
Qi Qiongyu stood up in panic and knelt down in front of the table.
"Your Highness, please don't embarrass me..."
"Somebody come!"
"Your Highness."
Baizhi and Xuanque heard the sound and came in, and forced her to take off her cloak and fur collar.
Only then did I see...
Her exposed neck and wrists were covered with marks from ligatures and whipping.
The shocking mark reminded Shen Changle of his past life...
She felt a throbbing pain in the back of her head and trembled as she stood up with the help of the table.
"Was it... Lu Mingchao who did it?"
Jiang Ci'an was also surprised, but when he saw her like this, he quickly stood up and supported her.
As he watched her face gradually turn pale, he began to have a bad suspicion in his mind.
Could it be that Changle...
But he forced himself to suppress his thoughts——
Do not!impossible!
Lu Mingchao would never dare to disrespect her!
The hand holding her slender waist tightened slightly.
Shen Changle didn't notice, he just looked at Qi Qiongyu who was kneeling on the ground crying, and asked harshly:
"Is it Lu Mingchao?"
"No... no, Your Highness, please don't ask..."
She couldn't let this get out of hand!
Not only did he ruin his own reputation, he also ruined his cousin's future...
Shen Changle was so angry that he couldn't stop shaking when he saw her stubbornness and her insistence on hiding the truth.
"You...you're still protecting him even at this point!"
"Your Highness..."
Qi Qiongyu begged and cried.
"Please, Your Highness, please don't pursue this matter. I beg you!"
"He treated you like this, and you still wanted to marry him?"
"Your Highness, I have no choice..."
He had seen everything about her, and her innocence was gone!
She can only marry him...
Shen Changle was so angry that he was speechless.
Annoyed by her crying, she slammed the table and angrily scolded:
"go out!"
He covered his ears and slumped on the table.
I can’t figure it out for a moment…
If Lu Mingchao tortured her so much in her previous life because he was resentful of her for asking for marriage and causing him to miss out on his love, she could understand!
What about this life?
In this life, she has let him pursue his true love!
Qi Qiongyu had never hurt him, not even disobeyed him!
Why was he so cruel to her?
