Chapter 945 Fate Has Arrived
Seven days later.
Song Ruozhen and Chu Muyao sat together in a teahouse, drinking tea, their gazes falling on the street below.
"Sister-in-law, you called me out today just to sit here and drink tea?"
Chu Muyao looked surprised. She had rushed out as soon as she heard her sister-in-law call her. She had thought that she might accompany her sister-in-law shopping or pick out things for her unborn nephew and niece, but she didn't expect to just sit here and drink tea.
Song Ruozhen shook her head, "I didn't invite you here for tea today, but to reassure you."
"A reassurance?" Chu Muyao was slightly taken aback, not understanding her meaning for a moment.
The next moment, she suddenly saw a familiar figure below.
"This must be Princess Changping."
"Have you heard that the Qi family's property was confiscated? The direct descendants of the Qi family were beheaded, and the rest were sentenced to exile. From now on, the Qi family will no longer exist in the capital."
"Such a big event has caused a sensation throughout the entire capital. How could we not have heard about it?"
In fact, the reason why the Qi family ended up like this was because of Princess Changping.
If it weren't for the emotional entanglements between her and the two young masters of the Qi family, Qi Junming wouldn't have poisoned his elder brother out of jealousy, the love curse wouldn't have been exposed, and she wouldn't have ended up like this.
"I heard that Princess Consort Liang begged Prince Liang to save Qi Junming, but he refused. In a fit of anger, she went to the palace to murder Prince Liang's birth mother, Consort Duan. Isn't that terrifying?"
"Cough, cough, cough."
Chu Muyao had just taken a sip of tea when she was startled by the rumors circulating below.
"Are they out of their minds? Qi Qingyi's plot to murder Consort Duan was her own fault for being mentally unstable, how can they blame it on Changping?"
Song Ruozhen couldn't help but roll her eyes as she listened to the rumor. Even the parties involved often couldn't imagine that so many versions of a story could be fabricated. It was getting more and more outrageous!
"Qi Qingyi harmed the entire Qi family for her own selfish reasons. Now, they've fabricated a story about her helping the whole family. I'm afraid even Lord Qi will die with regrets."
Princess Changping listened to the discussions around her, her face turning slightly pale.
In fact, she knew she would face this situation after the incident occurred.
After the Crown Princess saved her, she saw how much her family cared for her and gave up her suicidal thoughts.
Today, she thought that she would have to go out and meet people sooner or later, and that hiding it would only make her family more worried, so she took the initiative to go out.
However, she was still affected by the accusations.
"Sister-in-law, shall we go down and help Changping?"
Chu Muyao couldn't stand it. Changping was already wronged in this matter. She hadn't done anything wrong; it was just that the Qi family was despicable and shameless and almost harmed her.
These people keep saying such things; it's absolutely outrageous!
Seeing that Chu Muyao was about to get up, Song Ruozhen stopped her, "No need to rush, someone will come to help soon, just wait and see."
Upon hearing this, Chu Muyao couldn't help but feel suspicious. Then she saw Changping accidentally bump into someone, and a handsome young man shielded her.
"Are you okay, miss?"
A deep, magnetic voice reached Changping's ears, and when she turned her head, she saw a handsome face.
Unlike the refined and handsome scholars she usually saw, the man in front of her looked a few years older than her, with handsome features, slightly dark skin, and a strong masculine air. His robust physique was full of power.
This is a true tough guy.
A hint of surprise flashed in Changping's eyes. She was used to seeing refined young masters from noble families in the capital, but she rarely saw such a burly man.
After realizing what had happened, he quickly regained his balance and said, "Thank you, young master."
The man looked at Changping in front of him, and could still vaguely make out the outline of his face when he was a child. A smile appeared in his deep eyes.
"Sister Changping, do you still remember me?"
Changping was slightly taken aback. Looking at the unfamiliar face in front of him, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know me?"
Wu Shengze chuckled, "We've known each other for many years, you might as well think about it carefully."
Changping frowned, various possibilities flashing through his mind, but he still couldn't come up with a solution.
Logically speaking, this person is so good-looking, unlike any of the other young men she knows, so she should have a deep impression of him. How could she not remember him?
"Young master, you're not trying to trick me on purpose, are you?"
Changping looked suspicious. People often made up such excuses to get closer to her, but she never believed them.
She didn't think that way because the person in front of her looked very sincere.
Seeing that the girl in front of him really couldn't remember him, Wu Shengze wasn't worried. "It's alright. Even if you can't remember for now, we'll have many more opportunities to meet. I believe you'll remember sooner or later."
"I have just arrived in the capital today, and it is such a coincidence that we bumped into each other, which proves that we are destined to meet."
Most people in the world are mediocre, and there's no need to care about what they say or let their words spoil your mood.
As long as you have a clear conscience, there will always be someone who understands you.
After listening to Wu Shengze's words, Changping placed a grasshopper woven from bamboo strips in her palm.
Looking at the little grasshopper lying in her palm, she couldn't help but recall a scene from her childhood.
The older brother who lived in her house could also weave little grasshoppers like this.
She was amazed when she first saw the grasshopper. She had never seen such an interesting little creature before, and she never imagined that someone could weave it so well.
Later, he would give her one every day, and she collected them all.
However, I haven't seen him since he left.
Just now, she saw him again. She couldn't help but look up, only to find that Wu Shengze had already left.
Chu Muyao, who was on the second floor of the teahouse, saw this scene clearly and her eyes were full of surprise.
"Sister-in-law, could this be Changping's destined match?"
Song Ruozhen nodded slightly and smiled, "What do you think? Don't they look like a good match?"
"They are indeed a good match. I originally thought that Changping would prefer someone as gentle and refined as Qi Juncheng, but this man clearly looks like he practices martial arts. I don't know about his literary talent, but his martial arts skills seem to be quite good."
Chu Muyao had seen many people in the palace, so she had a good eye for people.
Changping almost fell just now, and this man, who was clearly some distance away from her, was able to quickly rush to her side and help her up, which shows that his martial arts skills are not simple.
"Often, people just presuppose what kind of person they like, what they think they should like. But once they meet their soulmate, the person they truly like, they realize that all their presuppositions were meaningless."
"Because this person is completely different from what she expected, but she just likes him!" Song Ruozhen chuckled.
