Xiao Yurong knew that the Crown Prince was also innocent. This was all a dispute started by someone with ill intentions. The Crown Prince was also one of the victims.
However, he was a man after all. He should stand up at such a time. Whether it was to announce to the world or to immediately marry a wife to calm the people down, he absolutely should not allow his senior sister to be humiliated like this?
Xie Qiao looked at Xiao Yurong’s angry look and thought… he was not a man who was fated to enjoy life.
He was so angry over such a small matter that he did not have any demeanor of a teacher at all. If he found out that the person he was trying to stir trouble with was actually a teenage girl and a liar…
He would not want to eat her alive, would he?!
Xie Qiao took a sip of tea to calm herself down.
She did not know what to say.
After Xiao Yurong said that, he noticed that Xie Qiao did not seem to care at all.
He was also a little suspicious. “Senior Sister, aren’t you angry at all?”
Xie Qiao shook her head.
Even if she only had the identity of Mo Chusheng, it was useless for her to be angry. “The Crown Prince and I met Zhao Xuzhi by chance when we were working on a case in Xun County. He was jealous of the Crown Prince solving the case, so he schemed in secret. However, he doesn’t have proof. If he could make me a demon just by saying that, would there be any law in the world?”
Xiao Yurong was silent for a while. “That’s true. There were many people who criticized the Crown Prince for being ridiculous in the beginning. In the past two days, someone suggested that Zhao Xuzhi had no evidence and was just making guesses…”
Xie Qiao thought she had nothing to be ashamed of.
So what if there was some intimacy between her and the Crown Prince?
She had never crossed the line in public. The Crown Prince had always been respectful and polite to her senior sister. He was absolutely innocent.
Xiao Yurong thought for a while and said, “I was too rash. I thought the Crown Prince didn’t see me for the past few days on purpose.”
In the past, when there was a complaint about the Crown Prince, it was one-sided. There were not many people who spoke up for the Crown Prince.
However, this time…
It was different.
Xiao Yurong was also worried and confused. Now that he saw Xie Qiao so relaxed, most of his worries were gone.
While they were talking, some sounds came from outside the Fortune Pavilion.
Xie Qiao looked through the screen and found it was the Dong sisters.
Dong Xiyun looked around and no one knew what she was thinking about. Second Young Lady Dong next to her was a little anxious. She carefully tugged at Dong Xiyun’s sleeve and said, “Sister, let’s go back. It’s rude…”
Dong Xiyun acted as if she had not heard anything. She rolled her eyes at her sister, then looked at the shopkeeper and asked, “Is that Master Mo around?”
Shopkeeper Chang was expressionless. “The boss is busy and won’t see any guests. If there’s anything you need, I can help you inform her.”
When Dong Xiyun heard that, she smiled and said, “Forget it. Since Master Mo isn’t around, I’ll come again next time. You can tell Master Mo later that I’m the First Young Lady of the Dong family. If there’s anything between her and the Crown Prince, she should understand what this means immediately. In the future, we’ll be a family, so we should get to know each other better.”
Xie Qiao heard everything clearly from inside and frowned.
How could they be a family?
“Recently, the Emperor has chosen a consort for the Fourth Prince. Young Lady Dong has been appointed as the main consort. It is just that the marriage of the Crown Prince has not been decided yet, so the Emperor has not issued an edict to bestow the marriage. It’s being delayed.” Xiao Yurong explained to Xie Qiao.
The emperor really doted on the Crown Prince. He did not want the younger one to be one step ahead before his eldest son got married.
Even the children of the entire royal family married late and had children late.
There was nothing they could do. If a nephew of the same age as the Crown Prince had an heir in the royal family, it was inevitable that the prince of this family would be ostracized by the Emperor in the palace…
The emperor was indeed narrow-minded when it came to the Crown Prince.
