"Okay." Li Sisi agreed without thinking.
She had no intention of forcing Xiao Yunchen to support the princess, she just wanted Xiao Yunchen to help rescue Principal Xu.
Xiao Yunchen continued to instruct, "Madam, please do not see Principal Xu again for the next few days, lest someone with ulterior motives find you vulnerable."
"Okay." Li Sisi agreed readily.
——————
Some time passed since the day Xiao Yunchen agreed to help rescue Principal Xu.
Li Sisi was waiting anxiously, fearing that something would happen to Principal Xu in the prison before Xiao Yunchen rescued the people.
Fortunately, the worrying thing did not happen.
After learning that Director Xu had been rescued and had safely left the capital, the two best friends breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally did what they promised the princess.
In addition, the two received another good news.
Qi He has received the Emperor's permission to garrison the northwest border!
The two best friends stood on the pavilion and watched the mighty army set out from the capital.
The leading man was wearing silver armor that gleamed in the sun. He had a majestic figure, and his resolute face once again regained his former vigor and spirit.
A ragged woman looked at the man on horseback, her eyes burning and her heart burning.
More of it is the bitterness of regret.
If she had agreed to marry Qi He, she would not have been exiled when the Wen family fell, and she would not have ended up in the miserable situation she is today.
"Zihe—Zihe—" she yelled at the top of her lungs.
Inspired by her cry, the people in the capital followed suit and shouted loudly.
Wen Luoqing's cries were easily drowned out by the shouts of others, which made her so angry that she started cursing.
She had finally escaped back. If she let Qi He leave now, there would be no chance for them to meet again.
Wen Luoqing was so anxious that he stood up and squeezed into the crowd.
However, in such a crowded crowd, no matter how hard she tried, she could not move forward even half a step. Instead, she was cursed and despised by other onlookers around her.
He was so anxious that tears streamed down his face, but he could only watch the army fade out of sight.
She hurriedly followed him out of the city.
But he didn't expect to be blocked as soon as he left the city gate.
Wen Luoxin, dressed in a long goldfinch orchid dress, was flanked by two guards. They scrutinized her with astonishment, their voices trembling with shock. "Big sister? You, you've escaped back to the capital?"
Wen Luoqing lowered her head quickly, shielding her face with her messy and dirty hair: "You've got the wrong person."
She spoke quickly and turned away in a hurry.
Wen Luoxin naturally wouldn't let her go easily: "Big sister, I know it's you. We are sisters, and it's rare for us to get together now. Naturally, I have to treat you well."
Wen Luoqing was very afraid of this sister.
Ever since he teamed up with Yun Qiuwu to harm Wen Luoxin, he has suffered a lot from her.
In the past, she was protected by her father and siblings, so she could act without restraint and without fear.
Now that she has fled back to the capital as a criminal, if Wen Luoxin wants to harm her, it will be as easy as crushing an ant.
"Madam, you really have the wrong person. I am of humble status, how dare I be compared with your sister!" Wen Luoqing kept her head down and dared not raise it, backing away step by step.
Wen Luoxin approached step by step, raised her hand and pinched her face to lift it up.
When he saw her face clearly, he said with joy: "Sister, it's really you."
She hurriedly released the hand that was pinching her cheek and took her hand instead: "This is not a good place to talk, sister, come with me."
Wen Luoxin's eyes fell on Wen Luoxin holding her hand.
The fair and delicate hand held her scarred and dirty hand, but the man did not look disgusted at all.
Her eyes flashed.
Could it be...
Wen Luoxin led him to a relatively hidden alley.
Listening to Wen Luoxin instructing her guards: "Look over there."
The two guards seemed to listen to Wen Luoxin's words and responded respectfully, "Yes."
Wen Luo Qingxin knew that he couldn't escape today, so he said in a stern voice, "You don't have to pretend like this. I've already fallen into this situation. What do you want to say?"
Wen Luoxin took out a handkerchief and wiped the dirt off her face, saying in a stern tone, "Sister, how can you still say such things? You and I are sisters! You have fallen into such a state now. Do you think it would be better for me to be alone in the capital?"
A few tears welled up in her eyes, and she spoke in a sorrowful voice, "The Wen Mansion should have enjoyed infinite glory, but it was because of those two evildoers that our Wen Mansion has fallen to this point! Sister, don't you feel hatred in your heart? Don't you want revenge?"
"Revenge?" Wen Luoqing laughed at himself and pointed at himself, "Look at me now, what can I use to take revenge?"
She said bitterly, "I can only blame myself for being so stupid. I actually believed what that bitch Yun Qiuwu said! For a man, I framed my own sister!"
Wen Luoxin's face was filled with grief. "Don't blame me, sister. I was stupid too. I believed Xiao Yunchen's words and was forced to marry Qi He. Now those two vicious women have colluded with Qi He to frame me! They are the ones who caused our separation!"
Hearing this, Wen Luoqing said hatefully, "Those two bitches are truly vicious!"
Wen Luoxin held her hand affectionately and said, "Don't worry, sister. Although I am isolated and helpless in the capital, I will definitely protect you. Now you are my only relative."
Wen Luoqing looked at Wen Luoxin's tear-stained face and remembered that his father and brother were beheaded in public, and his female relatives and collateral relatives were also implicated and exiled to the wilderness plateau.
I started crying unconsciously.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Wen Luoxin led Wen Luoqing to where she usually hid.
The alley is narrow and dark, and not even a ray of sunlight can penetrate here.
