When Qi Yuning was planning to make up for the wedding night on Lu Ze's birthday, she suddenly heard the rumor that Lu Ze risked his life to save the girl from the Guan family who fell into the water.
Rumors were rife in Shengjing City, saying that Lu Ze and Guan Zhiyi were once engaged, and that Qi Yuning had used the Qi family's power to ask His Majesty to steal her away.
Qi Yuning seldom attends banquets, but she has to attend some important wedding events. At Lin Jiang and Wang Zhiyu's wedding banquet, Qi Yuning heard a lot of whispers about her stealing someone else's love.
Qi Yuning kept frowning.
Lu Baozhu said to Qi Yuning, "I really don't know how people outside can make up such nonsense. They even spread rumors that Guan Zhiyi is going to be my brother's concubine..."
Qi Yuning took a sip of tea and said, "Lu Ze loves Guan Zhiyi so much. Indeed, if I hadn't interfered, they would have been husband and wife long ago."
"Who told you that my brother likes Guan Zhiyi? Can you please stop talking nonsense?"
Qi Yuning drank a glass of wine by himself, and when he went to the backyard to get some fresh air, he suddenly saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Zhao Chong looked at Qi Yuning and said, "Are you troubled by the rumors outside? You can rest assured, Ze'er..."
Qi Yuning looked at Zhao Chong in front of him and said, "Your Highness, there is no need for you to say anything for him."
Zhao Chong said, "I have already chosen the Crown Princess, and it is Song Heqing."
Qi Yuning raised an eyebrow and said, "It's He Qing. I haven't even heard her mention it."
Zhao Chong's eyes glued to Qi Yuning's face, he said, "It was just decided not long ago."
Qi Yuning was disgusted by Zhao Chong's look. After bowing and leaving, she happened to run into Lu Ze and Guan Zhiyi. They were talking together, but she didn't know what they were talking about. She only saw Lu Ze with a smile on his face.
Qi Yuning stepped forward and said to Guan Zhiyi, "You've used the same trick twice. Do you think this princess will tolerate it again? You trampled on my reputation back then to make a name for yourself and your sisters. This princess felt it was too dirty to argue with you. Now you're even using public opinion to try to make me a concubine. Dream on!"
Guan Zhiyi said aggrievedly: "I, I didn't..."
Lu Ze held Qi Yuning's hand and said, "Yuning, it was us who wronged Miss Guan Liu. Please stop talking!"
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze and said, "Why are you feeling so bad? I'm going to say this, Guan Zhiyi, if you want to marry a daughter-in-law, don't marry Princess Qi. Does this sound familiar to you?"
Guan Zhiyi was stunned.
Qi Yuning said, "Also, you deliberately caused Madam Lu to fall ill, and thus became Madam Lu's savior. Do you think no one knows about this? The evidence is all there. You'd better go to jail immediately. I feel sick when my name is mentioned alongside yours!"
Qi Yuning instructed Lichun behind him, "Send the collected evidence to the Shengjing government office."
Qi Yuning glared at Lu Ze fiercely again, then left the Lin Residence in a huff, not even watching the ceremony.
Lu Ze wanted to catch up, but because it was the wedding banquet of one of his best friends, and he also had to help Lin Jiang block the wine, he couldn't catch up.
When Lu Ze returned to the princess's bedroom, he did not see Qi Yuning. After asking, he found out that Qi Yuning had not returned.
