She grew up with him since childhood, they were childhood sweethearts, and have been in love for more than ten years.

She is the only remaining bloodline of the Xiao family, and he promised to take care of her for the rest of her life!

Xiao Zhihua looked at the divorce letter in astonishment, thinking that this was just a nightmare, it couldn't be real. She shook her head and took a few steps back:

"No……"

impossible.

She is dreaming.

She is so well-behaved, gentle, beautiful, and considerate. How could King Chen abandon her for an ugly girl?

impossible!

Her face was pale and she kept shaking her head, "No...I won't leave you...Aunt will never allow you to do this!"

The cousin she was talking about, Concubine Xiao, was Prince Chen’s biological mother.

Zong Zhengchen looked at her coldly:

"If my mother were still alive, she would do the same thing as me. She would never keep such a vicious and poisonous snake by my side."

Xiao Zhizhao's face turned pale and his whole body trembled.

Viper...

He knew...

He found out...

Qin Ye stood nearby and didn't quite understand.

What poisonous snake?

What did Xiao Zhihua do that she didn't know about?

"Take the divorce letter and leave. I have arranged everything for you. You are free to marry and I am not affected by you. The mansion, money, and people to serve you are all arranged. You will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life." The man was cold and emotionless.

Not taking her life and making plans for her second half of life was his last act of kindness to her because of her last name, Xiao.

Xiao Zhihua was struck by lightning and staggered to the ground.

What's the point of leaving Chen Palace and leaving him, even if I gain the whole world?

She was born for him, and he is the most important person in her life!

Qin Ye was puzzled.

Why did Zong Zhengchen suddenly become so heartless?

Han Feng approached her ear and explained in a very low voice: "Princess, you don't know that Concubine Xiao stole the master's personal jade pendant and gave it to Concubine Wei. She teamed up with the crown prince to frame the master..."

Qin Ye suddenly understood when he heard this.

It turned out that she was the one who stole the jade pendant!

She claimed that she loved Prince Chen deeply, gave everything for him, and that she wanted Prince Chen for her whole life. However, she secretly colluded with the crown prince and put Zong Zhengchen to death!

If it were Qin Ye, he would never keep someone who betrayed him around.

There is only zero and countless betrayals.

Zong Zhengchen didn't want to say more, so he stood up, took Qin Ye's hand and was about to leave.

"Your Majesty!"

Xiao Zhihua rushed forward, knelt on the ground, and hugged the man's thighs, "Prince, don't, don't chase Huaer away! Huaer knows she was wrong, Prince!"

She doesn't want to leave.

Without him, her life would have no meaning.

"Your Majesty, Huaer was confused for a moment and made a mistake. It was not intentional. Huaer was bewitched by the thief. I will not dare to make the same mistake again next time. Please give Huaer a chance!"

"My Lord, please!"

She cried loudly, tears of regret falling from her eyes.

Don't want to let go.

Don't want to leave.

Zong Zhengchen frowned, coldly pulled his legs out, and stepped back three steps:

"Not taking your life is already a great favor. After all these years, don't you know my temper?"

Keep your word.

Kill if you say kill.

No matter who it is, anyone who betrays him must die.

What he hated most in his life was betrayal.

Xiao Zhihua burst into tears, as if she had never expected the situation to turn out like this. Asking Zong Zhengchen for help was useless, so she went to ask Qin Ye for help:

"Sister Princess, please let me stay. As long as I can stay, I will be your slave and work for you. I will not refuse even if I die. I will be quiet and not fight or compete. Please!"

Qin Ye didn't have a good impression of Xiao Zhihua in the first place, so why did he come to beg her?

Why didn't she think of showing mercy when she thought she was going to harm her?

She said coldly: "Miss Xiao, this is the prince's intention, and it is not something I can change. God is watching what you do. Remember to think twice before you act in the future."

The current situation was caused by Xiao Zhihua alone.

If she hadn't had evil intentions and betrayed King Chen, she wouldn't have ended up like this.

People cannot go against their conscience.

Everyone and everything in the world is subject to cause and effect and reincarnation.

The two left, leaving Xiao Zhihua alone sitting on the ground, crying bitterly, so bitterly that everyone in the palace could hear her...
