Chapter 922 Must One Accept Fate?
Qi Qingyi was overjoyed when she heard that the King of Liang was willing to ask the King of Xiao for help in pleading for mercy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
She knew that after so many years of marriage, the prince must still have feelings for her!
If it weren't for that, the prince wouldn't have jumped into the water to save her. If it weren't for her, the prince wouldn't have developed a chronic illness and become so physically weak.
Memories from back then flooded her mind, reminding her of how close they were when they were children. Even though they are no longer the same people they once were, their bond is still far stronger than that of others.
So what if she's disfigured?
You should know that the prince was deeply in love with her from the beginning. The reason she became the Princess Consort of Liang was not because she tried every means to curry favor with the prince, but because the prince had chosen her from the very beginning.
"Qingyi, the relationship between me and Prince Xiao can only be described as so-so. After all, we were not born to the same mother, and in recent years my health has been poor, so I haven't had much interaction with my brother."
All I could do was try my best, but the result…
Qi Qingyi was so moved by the Prince of Liang that she was completely disoriented. She quickly replied, "Your Highness, I understand."
Junming brought this upon himself. If he weren't my brother, I wouldn't care at all. But my mother has already lost one son, and I can't just stand by and watch her lose another.
"I understand."
The King of Liang said gently, “Even if you hadn’t brought it up, I was planning to think of a way to deal with it. The reason I didn’t tell you is because you are pregnant, and I didn’t want you to worry too much.”
Qi Qingyi left deeply moved. King Liang watched her departing figure quietly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
"Your Highness, the Emperor previously ordered a stay-at-home order. Apart from those who go to the mansion to buy groceries every day, no one else is allowed to come or go."
If you wish to visit Prince Xiao, even if you send someone to deliver a message, what if others find out…?
The trusted confidant standing nearby couldn't help but worry. The prince's current situation was extremely difficult, and the crown prince's men were still watching them closely. If they were not careful, they would be doomed.
The Qi family has already caused such a mess, which only adds to the chaos. It's really not worth the prince getting himself involved.
"I was just saying it; pleading is useless in this matter, so why should I waste my time?"
The King of Liang's eyes were cold. After the incident, he instructed the Qi family to be careful with their words and actions and not to cause any trouble.
At times like these, even a small piece of evidence could be fatal.
His father-in-law was quite clever, but unfortunately he couldn't even control his son; they all lost their minds when it came to women.
They did it, and yet they were discovered. They're all useless!
"Your Highness, judging from the Princess Consort's behavior just now, what if she really harbors murderous intentions towards the Crown Princess..."
The man's eyes showed worry. The princess's behavior was too obvious. She probably had long harbored the intention to kill the crown princess, but now she had made up her mind.
The King of Liang remained calm. “She’s pregnant now. She’s just saying it because she’s in a bad mood. There’s no need to take it to heart.”
Upon hearing this, the man hesitated, feeling that the princess's expression was not a momentary outburst. However, since the prince had already spoken, he remained silent.
……
After returning to her room, Qi Qingyi felt reassured, confirming the prince's feelings for her. Her only thought was how to get rid of Song Ruozhen.
If she could, she would certainly want to get rid of Chu Junting, but she also knew very well that she couldn't do it with her methods.
On the contrary, Song Ruozhen might still have a glimmer of hope.
"Hiring someone to kill me is definitely not an option. If I get betrayed, I'm finished."
Qi Qingyi narrowed her eyes. After experiencing so much, she was no longer as impulsive as before. Every time she left a handle on someone, she was the one who suffered.
"If I do it myself, no one should doubt that I'm a pregnant woman."
Thinking of this sliver of possibility, Qi Qingyi's heart was filled with renewed hope. If she could kill him directly, that would be the best outcome.
Even if she fails, she could turn around and accuse Song Ruozhen of being ruthless towards her, which might not be a bad opportunity!
"Song Ruozhen has been enjoying herself immensely lately, having so easily become the Crown Princess. However, if she causes trouble, the consequences will be dire for her."
"Miss, what are you thinking about?"
Granny Yang was hoping for a good outcome, but she never expected that after the young lady returned, she would fall into deep thought, completely lost in thought. Granny Yang waved her hand in surprise.
Qi Qingyi came to her senses and said, "Granny Yang, go back and tell Mother that the Prince has gone to Prince Xiao for help."
However, as you all know, the situation is dire. Too many people are watching this, and our relationship with the Crown Prince is strained. Rescuing Junming won't be easy.
When Granny Yang learned that the prince had agreed to help, her eyes immediately lit up with joy.
"That's wonderful, I'll go back and tell Madam right away."
Qi Qingyi watched Yang Mama's departing figure, her eyes filled with coldness.
She felt that Qi Junming was such a burden that it was better not to save him at all!
For someone like that, the prince would have to swallow his pride and beg Prince Xiao for help; she felt it wasn't worth it.
Now, whether for herself, for the prince, or for the future of the two children in her womb, she has to find a way to ruin Song Ruozhen.
Only in this way can she have the opportunity to become the most noble woman in the world!
the other side.
Song Ruozhen looked at Chu Muyao, whose eyes were red, and her eyes showed confusion.
"Mu Yao, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Muyao had been holding back her emotions, but the moment she heard Song Ruozhen's concerned inquiry, she completely lost control.
"Sister-in-law, what should I do now?"
When Song Ruozhen saw Chu Muyao hug her and cry, she immediately realized something was wrong. After a moment's thought, she said:
"Could it be that your marriage is in trouble?"
Chu Muyao nodded, crying as she said, "My mother had already told my father about Jing Shen and me, and my father did not object."
Just as the marriage was about to be finalized, news came from the border that the Qi-Yue Dynasty required the princess to be a direct descendant of the royal family.
In fact, in the past, marriage alliances were often made with suitable daughters from the imperial family. Since I was born to my mother, it was usually not my turn.
But now, news from the Qi Yue Dynasty has left my father and mother with no choice but to go and arrange a marriage alliance.
Chu Muyao couldn't hold back her emotions any longer. After learning the news, she went through a long, long period of time, feeling disheartened, devastated, and overwhelmed.
In the end, she could only tell herself that one must accept one's fate.
Many times, there's no way to defy fate, but when she said those words aloud, it was still hard for her to bear.
