Chu Yuanqi looked confused: "Unknown? What is the reason?"
Xiao Lingyue said in a calm tone: "When I was just born, my biological mother died of dystocia. The Shen family believed the fortune teller's words and felt that I was unknown and that staying at home would harm my father and mother, so they made an excuse. Send me to the countryside."
Chu Yuanqi looked at her in disbelief, "Is it because of this?"
"Yes, just because of this."
Xiao Lingyue looked at him sarcastically, "Don't you think it's funny? My biological father's blood is thicker than water, but just because of a word from an outsider, a horoscope that seems true or false, he can leave his three-year-old daughter alone in the countryside. , I ignored it for more than ten years."
During the years Shen Wan spent in the countryside, she suffered a lot and was bullied and tortured.
Have the Shen family asked?
Be it Shen Zhijiang or Old Marquis, they are indeed Shen Wan's relatives whose blood is thicker than water.
But do they have any affection for Shen Wan?
If it weren't for the marriage contract at the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, which the Shen family thought was profitable, the Shen family wouldn't have cared if Shen Wan died of old age or was tortured to death in the countryside.
Chu Yuanqi looked in disbelief.
He grew up in a happy family. The family tradition of Zhenbei Houfu was pure and upright, and there were no scandals such as doting on concubines and killing wives. Chu Yuanqi was the only legitimate son and was loved by the elders in the family, so he regarded his family as Very important, but also displeased with Xiao Lingyue's indifference towards the Shen family.
Based on his growth experience, it is difficult to understand that there are family members in this world who have no affection and use their own children as tools.
"You...are what you said true? You didn't make it up to deceive me, did you?" Chu Yuanqi asked with a tangled look on his face.
Xiao Lingyue said with a smile: "If I lie to you, will it do me any good?"
Chu Yuanqi couldn't tell.
"Forget it, believe it or not, it's up to you. As long as we break off the engagement, we have nothing to do with each other."
Xiao Lingyue waved her hands smartly: "Don't waste time, let's go quickly."
Chu Yuanqi: "..."
He had no choice but to follow him with a depressed look.
After walking silently for two or three minutes, Chu Yuanqi suddenly asked: "Are you and His Highness King Yi... real or fake?"
"What?" Xiao Lingyue looked at him doubtfully.
Chu Yuanqi said in annoyance: "I heard from people that you got close to His Royal Highness King Yi not long after you returned to the capital. You also lived in the palace for a while and got along with King Yi day and night. Even the young prince likes you very much. Privately, Befitting your mother and son."
"I originally thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect that the young prince actually called you mother! And just now, His Highness Prince Xiang, he looked at me strangely, and even asked you about Prince Yi in front of me. thing."
Chu Yuanqi looked at her with a strange expression: "You agreed to break off the engagement so actively, do you really want to get involved with King Yi?"
Xiao Lingyue: "..." Where are all this?
She was left speechless for a moment.
Chu Yuanqi misunderstood her silence, and his expression suddenly became very ugly.
He sneered and said: "I didn't expect your ambition to be so big. Even His Highness King Yi, you dare to make up your mind. You want to fly on a branch and become a phoenix. You have chosen the wrong person!"
"What do you mean by this?" Xiao Lingyue heard something in his words.
"You haven't been in the capital since you were a child, so you don't know anything about the situation in Prince Yi's Mansion, right?"
Chu Yuanqi said: "His Royal Highness King Yi married a princess in his early years. His Majesty granted the marriage. The younger prince was born to Princess Yi and is the confirmed heir to the palace." Hot 『』 This chapter has been completed!
