Before leaving, Xiao Jue seemed to have remembered something. He turned around and looked at Shen Qiaochen, or to be precise, at her right hand.

"I'll have someone send me a bottle of muscle-building ointment later. Remember to use it."

Shen Qiaochen's expression remained unchanged, "Thank you for your concern, young prince. It's just that I have been sick all year round, and I also know a few doctors with good medical skills in my family. With their care, I will be fine soon."

Shen Qiaoran didn't know the extent of Shen Qiaochen's injuries, but from what Xiao Jue said, it seemed that he wanted to send someone to Shen's mansion.

Today, Xiao Jue saved Xiao Qiao again, which made Shen Qiaoran very grateful.

But as a brother, he feels that all the men in the world are not worthy of his sister.

So Shen Qiaoran took a step forward and protected Shen Qiaochen behind him. He cupped his fists and said to Xiao Jue:

"Brother Xiao has saved Xiao Qiao's life. Shen Qiaoran is here to thank the Shen family. But my sister-in-law has her own family to take care of her and will definitely keep her safe. There is no need to trouble you, Prince Xiao."

These words were high-sounding, but what Shen Qiaoran was thinking about at the moment was that as the saying goes, men and women are not close to each other, and his sister is young and has always been raised in a boudoir.

A girl with a simple heart like her is the easiest to trust others.

Especially when you meet a man like Xiao Jue who is "good" in all aspects, he is the easiest to be deceived.

Moreover, Xiao Jue repeatedly made his presence felt in front of Shen Qiaochen. Fortunately, Xiao Qiao was still young and had not yet figured it out, otherwise he would not have been able to withstand Xiao Jue's teasing.

Everyone knows that Prince Xiao is a romantic young man, and there are countless girls in the capital who admire him, but who has seen him showing favor to any one?

Shen Qiaoran still remembered that Xiao Jue had just returned to Beijing after winning a battle last year, and His Majesty held a banquet specially for him.

At the banquet, the step-concubine of King Yong specially brought her natal niece to meet Xiao Jue. Everyone could clearly see the meaning of this.

This Miss Wang San is also the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister You, and she is also known as a virtuous person in the capital.

At this time, her pretty face turned red with embarrassment in front of Xiao Jue, and everyone present did not envy Xiao Jue's good fortune.

Who would have expected that Xiao Jue would not even give her a glance when facing the girl's eager eyes.

The step-concubine of Prince Yong changed her expression on the spot, but even though she was a dignified concubine of Prince Yong, she was only a step-concubine.

But Xiao Jue was the original wife of Prince Yong, the legitimate eldest son of Prince Yong, the crowned heir apparent in the palace, and the real young prince of Prince Yong's palace.

Therefore, no matter how angry Princess Yong was that Xiao Jue had disgraced her at the palace banquet, she did not dare or could not say anything in front of everyone present.

After all, even if others don't know it, as Princess Yong, she naturally knows how much her prince values ​​his eldest son.

When Xiao Jue was a child, Mrs. Wang had other ideas, but before she could implement them, Xiao Jue was taken away from the backyard by Prince Yong and brought up by his side. At the same time, he also gave her a clear warning that from now on From now on, the Wang family will not be allowed to interfere in anything related to the crown prince Xiao Jue.

In the days that followed, Prince Yong Xiao Shen treated Xiao Jue very harshly. He had to get up from the cockcrow every day to practice and study. Later, he personally took him to meet famous teachers to learn literature and martial arts.

The prince has always been strict with Xiao Jue, but he is very tolerant to other young masters in the house.

Everyone in the palace was secretly discussing it. Sure enough, if he had a stepmother, he would have a stepfather. Without his biological mother, the prince's life was even worse than that of the bastard in the palace...

Mrs. Wang saw this in her eyes and heard it in her ears, but she could only smile bitterly to herself. She had indeed had this idea, but from beginning to end, Prince Yong never gave her any chance.

Of course, Shen Qiaoran didn't know what was going on in Prince Yong's palace, but he clearly saw Xiao Jue's attitude towards the matchmaker of the Wang family at the palace banquet, and Miss Wang's eyes turned red on the spot.

Xiao Shizi was born into a noble family. He had been beaten by Ma Jing since he was a child, and he was full of red-sleeved moves.

It's not that Shen Qiaoran is belittling himself, but his sister is probably not as good-looking in Xiao Jue's eyes as he himself.

"I would like to invite you to watch a show. I wonder if Miss Four would be interested?"

Shen Congyan's reputation has always been good, especially since his wife, Lin, is the only one in his backyard. They have been loving each other for ten years, and they have to keep her with them even when they are guarding outside.

The female relatives of each government saw this, and all of them felt envious of Mrs. Lin.

Moreover, Mrs. Shen was also from the Lin family and was Lin's direct aunt. The two of them got along more like biological mother and daughter.

This makes every lady and lady who is struggling in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lament even more about Mrs. Lin's good fortune.

The only person who can make them feel a little more balanced is the Shen family's only legitimate daughter, Shen Qiaochen.

It is said that she is withdrawn and does not like to socialize.

But the last palace banquet actually made Prince Xiao treat her differently.

Many of the people who entered the palace that day saw Shen Qiaochen for the first time, but it must be said that she was the most outstanding one among the ladies from famous families.

Her appearance and demeanor are different from the rumors, which is indeed very impressive.

Shen Qiaochen stretched out his hands. His plain hands were slender and slender, as delicate and fair as fine mutton-fat jade.

But who could have known that her hands in her previous life had been red, swollen, cracked, and had swollen joints for a long time.

She had to wash her clothes and prepare food in the cold weather of the twelfth lunar month.

Bai Xiaonian wanted her to die, so he deliberately tortured her. The palace officials in the cold palace regarded her as nothing every day, and often disappeared without a trace.

Therefore, if she wants to survive, she can only learn to do it by herself.

The originally fair skin has become rougher under the daily exposure to wind and sun.

The round and lovely nails on the ten fingers are gradually worn away and smoothed by day after day of work, which makes people unbearable to look at them.

In this way, year after year, Shen Qiaochen survived.

She spent ten years in the cold palace like this.

In the previous life of Shen Qiaochen, she lived for a total of twenty-eight years. For the first thirteen years, she was the only legitimate daughter in the general's palace. She was pampered by her family since she was a child and had many servants.

But for the next fifteen years, she was trapped in the palace like a wandering spirit, and her parents and relatives all died because of her.

Because of the hatred in his heart, Shen Qiaochen could only suffer in guilt day and night.

She cursed and cursed the wolf-hearted people, and also made promises to the devil in the dark.

Even if he is thrown into the endless hell and his body and soul are destroyed, he will still kill all the ungrateful people in this world.

Finally, on that day, the cold palace burst into flames.

She died crying blood and was reborn in the fire.

She is Shen Qiaochen, and she is back.

Looking at the man in white who was walking with the princes outside the palace, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and the smile in her glass-like eyes became brighter.

Xiao Li, I am back.

Are you ready?

But after that, all nightmares began.

Everyone wants her life, so let’s see who can kill whom in the end.
