"Your Highness, please stay!" At a moon-shaped gate at a bend, Qu Moying stopped Pei Luoan who was leaving in a hurry.
Her watery eyes fell calmly on Pei Luoan's somewhat impatient eyes. She understood Pei Luoan's little habits. Although he looked calm at this moment, he was actually feeling anxious and uncomfortable in his heart.
But this is not enough, she wants Ji Youran to be even more miserable...
"Princess of England." Pei Luoan had to stop.
"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to the palace because of me. I wonder if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to me because of Madam Ji's matter?" Qu Moying said frankly, "When I left Qingyun Temple before, the temple master said that Madam Ji was missing. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely blame me."
"What did the Master of Qingyun Temple say?" Pei Luoan frowned. The Master of Qingyun Temple's words did not sound very pleasant. It sounded as if he was trying to create hatred for the Eastern Palace!
Qu Moying nodded: "I was in a hurry to get down the mountain, so I told the Qingyun Monastery Master that if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt that this matter had something to do with me, he could come to the Yingwang Mansion and ask me alone."
"Princess Ying, I am not here to hold you accountable." Pei Luoan said, suppressing his impatience.
"Even if Your Highness is not here to hold me accountable, I still have to explain this matter clearly to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, lest he hears other things and misunderstands me." Qu Moying said slowly, his expression frank and serious.
She roughly explained the whole process, and specifically mentioned what she said when she went to find Ji Youran. "Your Highness, I don't know what happened to Madam Ji at that time. She seemed to have mistaken me for my cousin. She said something like I escaped, died, escaped and died. Then she said she didn't know anything. Your Highness, I don't know what these words Madam Ji said mean. Is it related to my cousin?"
Qu Moying raised his eyes, looked at Pei Luoan seriously, and then bowed to him respectfully: "Your Highness, please solve my doubts!"
Pei Luoan's heart was shaken, which turned into disgust. Ji Youran, this woman, really could not be kept. How could such words be said to others
He looked at Qu Moying with a little more scrutiny, but saw that Qu Moying's expression was as calm as ever, without the slightest sign of stage fright, yet there was a hint of confusion and annoyance.
You should have just heard these few words and not understood their meaning, but these words are not good words.
Pei Luoan breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Qu Moying: "Princess Ying, this matter has nothing to do with you. It should be Ji Youran's own business. I will go to Qingyun Temple to check it out now. Bye!"
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finds Madam Ji, please let me see Madam Ji again." Qu Moying stopped Pei Luoan again, bowed deeply, and said softly.
"You're too polite, Princess Ying." Pei Luoan said this and turned around and strode away. Ji Youran absolutely could not stay outside any longer...
Ji Youran was found again. This was the news Pei Luoan obtained after he brought his men to Qingyun Temple.
It is said that when she was at the back mountain, she accidentally slipped down the ravine and could not get up for a while. No one came to her, so she just fell there. At this time, the entire Qingyun Temple was looking for her, and finally found the embarrassed Ji Youran in that small ravine.
A Taoist nun led Pei Luoan to see Ji Youran.
"Your Highness, I... I... I almost didn't get to see Your Highness." Seeing Pei Luoan, Ji Youran's eyes turned red.
The scarf covered the scar extending down from the corner of her eye.
Her eyes were exposed, and her face was turned to the side, showing the good half of her face, avoiding the wound that made Pei Luoan extremely disgusted. It looked as if there was no scar at all, and tears were shed.
Pei Luoan waved his hand and everyone retreated.
He walked slowly forward towards Ji Youran.
"Your Highness!" Ji Youran looked up at Pei Luoan, tears slowly falling from the corners of her eyes. She reached out to grab Pei Luoan's sleeve, "Your Highness... I... I thought... I was really going to die."
She had a thousand things to say, and she would use this as an opportunity to tell Liu Jingyu and Qu Moying about it. It was with this method that she slowly pushed Ji Hanyue to death. Now, at most, she would start all over again. She still had her rights, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had her in his heart.
As expected, as soon as I disappeared, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to look for me immediately. This alone was enough.
Pei Luoan lowered his head and looked at Ji Youran with an unclear gaze without saying a word.
"Your Highness!" Ji Youran's hand finally grabbed a corner of Pei Luoan's sleeve and shook it gently. Just as she was about to speak, her neck was suddenly strangled and the words were choked in her mouth.
He struggled hard to move upwards, and the prince's face in front of him suddenly became ferocious.
"Ji Youran, do you think I will always tolerate you?"
"Your Highness..." Ji Youran spoke with difficulty, and used both hands to pull Pei Luoan's hand that was strangling her neck. She felt suffocated, and her face turned red. Her eyes, which were originally bright, almost popped out because of the struggle. There was a roar in her ears, and Pei Luoan's face was blurred in the hideousness...
"Bang" Pei Luoan pushed Ji Youran away.
Ji Youran staggered and fell, gasping for breath on the ground, tears and snot streaming down her face, and her scarf had already flown away.
"Ji Youran, have I been too good to you in the past, so that you have forgotten your current identity?" Pei Luoan said coldly. He walked in front of Ji Youran with a dark and gloomy look in his eyes, as if something was brewing. Ji Youran had never seen Pei Luoan so furious.
She coughed so hard that she couldn't breathe, but subconsciously stepped back. At this moment, she could truly sense the murderous intent in Pei Luoan's eyes.
Pei Luoan wants to kill her
This realization made her whole body go cold. "Your Highness... I dare not. I will obey Your Highness in everything I do. Your Highness asked me to serve my sister, and I will do my best. Your Highness, please forgive me."
"Spare you?" Pei Luoan sneered, with unclear meaning. Ji Youran couldn't understand this kind of Pei Luoan. "Of course I will keep you. Why not?"
He would never forget Han Yue's warning. Ji Youran was the best choice, but he would not let her walk around and cause more trouble. If he wanted to keep someone from leaving, there were still many ways to do it. He walked forward slowly...
"Thank you, Your Highness... Thank you, Your Highness!" Ji Youran was overjoyed, "Ah!"
Screams were heard shrilly, and the guards outside stood guard motionlessly, as if nothing could happen.
“Your Highness… Your Highness…” Ji Youran’s face in the room was pale, and there was no trace of blood on the corners of his lips. He hugged his legs with his hands, and his whole body was hunched over. He curled up on the ground, sweating profusely.
With just one kick, the leg bone was broken.
"I'll cut off one of your legs as a warning!" Pei Luoan retracted his leg, his eyes calmed down a lot, and his expression could even be described as gentle. "From now on, you will serve Han Yue. You two are the closest cousins.
You are the most suitable person among all the others. Don’t worry, as long as you serve me well, I will not treat you unfairly.”
Such an expression, such words, with some soft words and laughter, sounded more like a joke between lovers, and was also what Ji Youran wanted most in the past.
For the tenderness that she could see but not get at that time, she disregarded her sisterhood with Ji Hanyue and secretly hooked up with Crown Prince Pei Luoan. Then, in order to become the only one in the crown prince's heart, she helped Pei Luoan push Ji Hanyue to death step by step and pushed her down from Linyuan Pavilion.
But now!
What did she get? The pain from the broken leg made her vision blurry. She couldn't see clearly who was in front of her. Was that man still the prince she had been thinking about
"Your Highness... why... why do you do this to me?" Ji Youran tried hard not to faint, cold sweat already trickling down her face. She felt excruciating pain, but she forced herself to look up to see Pei Luoan's face clearly.
"Han Yue's matter is beyond doubt. You are just a commoner now, not even my concubine, yet you are still restless. Ji Youran, I remember telling you that I like those who are content and obedient, and those who are devoted to me and whose hearts and minds only have me. Look at you now, you really disgust me."
Pei Luoan looked at Ji Youran, who was almost fainting from the pain, and his voice was as gentle as ever, but there was disgust in his eyes, and he even stepped back deliberately.
"Someone, carry the person back to the mansion, and quickly find the imperial physician to check Madam Ji's injuries." Pei Luoan raised his voice.
The two guards at the door heard the call and hurried in, found a wooden board, helped Ji Youran up, and then carried him out of the mountain gate one after the other.
Lying on the bed, Ji Youran saw the blue sky, and the sounds in his ears came and went, and there seemed to be a woman's laughter in the high blue sky...
It was the former residence of Lord Ling’an.
In the past, the Ling'an Marquis's Mansion was not only highly regarded by the Emperor, but also had a marriage with the Crown Prince. The second daughter of the Ling'an Marquis' Mansion was betrothed to the elegant Crown Prince. Once the decree came down, many young ladies were jealous. As the eldest daughter, Ji Youran was even more unwilling, thinking that this marriage was meant for her and that Ji Hanyue had snatched it from her.
In terms of age, it would be Ji Hanyue's turn only if she made the order.
How could Ji Youran be willing to rely on her uncle's status to suppress her future status as the Crown Princess...
So there was the subsequent temptation, and no one knew who seduced whom or who betrayed whom. The last scene was when Ji Hanyue was pushed down from Linyuan Pavilion. I was filled with ecstasy at that time.
She stepped on her uncle and Ji Hanyue, and was determined to destroy everything in the first house. Ji Yanyue didn't let her escape, but in the end she got what she has now.
His face was destroyed and his legs were broken.
It turns out that when she destroyed Ji Hanyue, she also destroyed her own support. From having everything, to having nothing now, all she lacked was the Ling Anbo Mansion. So, now she has lost her last bit of support
Even my father was expelled from the Ji family. Even though my grandmother still let my father live in the Ling Anbo Mansion, it was only for my grandmother's sake. From the root, she is no longer a member of the Ji family, so no one will stand up for her, and no one will use Ji Hanyue to speak for themselves...
Ji Youran's empty eyes only showed despair, so... she really... had nothing left...
If she had known this earlier, she would not have done this...
