Xiao Zhen never expected that the truth of the matter would be like this.
Has Lan Yin been waiting for him all along?
But he harbored resentment towards her because she had married someone else, and he never wanted to see her again.
"Why did she marry you?" Xiao Zhen murmured for a long time, his heart filled with indescribable bitterness.
He felt depressed and dejected after hearing the news of her marriage.
"She probably wants to make you jealous. Also, she found out she's pregnant, and it's not good for people to find out she's pregnant out of wedlock once her belly gets bigger. Plus, I've been pursuing her and don't mind her past, so she can leave anytime she wants."
"But before she agreed to marry me, she received a letter from Suzhou. Perhaps it was that letter, or perhaps she was pregnant at the time and more vulnerable, but I don't know the real reason. After the marriage, she regretted it and kept thinking about leaving. I had to keep coaxing her to soften her heart and stay," Rong Shiqing said sadly.
Actually, he made a mistake. No matter how much he did, it was all in vain for a woman whose heart was not with him; it would only exacerbate their suffering.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhen was taken aback and asked, "What letter?"
Rong Shiqing shook his head. "I don't know. She didn't tell me, but I saw her crying after she read the letter." He paused, looking at the man with a murderous aura, and added, "It must be related to the Prince."
Xiao Zhen was somewhat confused. The letter that Suzhou sent to her was from when the Xiongnu invaded. He was focused on the battlefield and hadn't written to her. If it wasn't him, then who was it?
"Can we still find that letter?" he asked after a long pause.
Rong Shiqing shook his head. "I gave all her things to Qingqing. If they're still here, they should be with Qingqing."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhen couldn't stay any longer and immediately left.
"Considering that you raised Qingqing for so many years, I'll let you off this time."
The man's chilling voice came from behind him, but by the time Rong Shiqing looked over, he was already far away.
Having narrowly escaped death, Rong Shiqing almost collapsed to the ground.
He naturally sensed that Xiao Zhen's visit today was intended to take his life.
He had mixed feelings.
He didn't know that Rong Qingqing's biological father was Xiao Zhen; it was Chen who told him that back then.
At that time, Chen was a maidservant to Lan, and had served her for many years. Naturally, she knew a lot about Lan's private affairs.
Rong Yiyi returned from outside and ran into Xiao Zhen.
Xiao Zhen didn't even glance at her before quickly leaving the Rong residence.
Rong Yiyi stopped and turned to look, only to see him riding away, surrounded by his guards.
Who is this person?
His imposing presence was so overwhelming that some people dared not look him in the eye.
Upon seeing Rong Shiqing, she hurried forward, "Father, who was that person just now?"
“It is Prince Su,” Rong Shiqing said indifferently, clearly unwilling to elaborate.
Rong Yiyi's eyes widened. "Wasn't he dead?" Didn't the Emperor send people to transport his body back to Suzhou for burial the day before yesterday?
Rong Shiqing sighed, "Situ Wuji will be the one to die soon."
Upon hearing this, Rong Yiyi immediately understood what was going on and lowered her voice, saying, "Is it the Emperor's scheme?"
Looking at his only daughter, Rong Shiqing couldn't help but offer a word of advice: "Don't mess with Rong Qingqing in the future. She's not someone you can afford to offend."
Upon hearing this, Rong Yiyi frowned, feeling deeply resentful.
Now that the news that Xie Jingrun is a prince has been announced to the world, who doesn't know it?
What incredible luck did Rong Qingqing have to climb onto such a high branch?
It used to be Feng Mo, now it's Xie Jingrun.
She pursed her lips, her eyes filled with barely concealed jealousy.
