Qin Ji smiled slightly and nodded: "Remember not to give yourself away."
"Yes," the subordinate replied immediately.
Then Qin Ji continued, "The title 'Princess Consort' is very good; you can use that title from now on."
The subordinate's face stiffened slightly, silently thinking to himself, "I never expected you to be like this, Your Highness," but on the surface he remained calm and composed, replying, "Your subordinate obeys."
…
Looking at Shu Jiqing in front of her, Wan Ge slowly said, "My cousin doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Has what happened in the capital had a significant impact?"
Shu Jiqing looked at her again with a complicated expression: "Sister-in-law, do you really not know?"
Wan Ge still looked innocent: "What do you know? Why are you beating around the bush with me, cousin? Just say what you want to say."
Shu Jiqing clenched her fists tightly at her sides. Although Wan Ge still looked calm and composed, she still couldn't believe it. How could the Crown Princess not know anything?
She felt that the other party had deliberately summoned her to the Crown Prince's residence to let her know her cousin's secret.
But something doesn't make sense. If that's really the case, why didn't the other party do anything before, and only started doing it now?
Shu Jiqing didn't actually know, but even so, it couldn't change the fact that she hated her to death now.
Wan Ge could clearly sense the other person's hostility towards her, but she didn't quite understand why.
It wasn't until the other person reached out and brushed their hair aside that Wan Ge saw the scars in her sleeve, and she was stunned for a moment.
No way! The Crown Prince actually did something to her. No matter what, she is the Empress's niece. This Crown Prince really is someone who dares to mess with anyone. It's truly frightening.
Wan Ge miscalculated, and she felt a little guilty towards Shu Jiqing for it.
She did want to get revenge, but not in this way.
It seems that Shu Jiqing not only saw the person she liked, but also someone of the opposite sex, and that this hurt her.
However, Wan Ge didn't miss the resentful look in the other party's eyes, and felt a little sorry for her. Even at this time, the person she hated was not the Crown Prince, but her.
Perhaps the other person felt that she had deliberately harmed her. Wan Ge admitted that she did want the other person to suffer a bit, but that wasn't the case. This outcome was not what she had expected.
…
Shu Jiqing still didn't say what had happened, but Wan Ge roughly understood: the rumors that the other party had a homosexual child were now known throughout the capital.
The crown prince was eager to prove that he wasn't like that, so he needed to call me back, wanting me to help him dispel the rumors.
Oh no, to be precise, those weren't rumors but facts. To be precise, the Crown Prince wanted to continue using her as a tool.
…
We walked halfway down the mountain, and when we reached the bottom, it did start to rain heavily.
The rain made the road slippery, causing the carriage to skid and throw Wan Ge off a cliff.
Before anyone else could react, Wan Ge had already been rescued.
At the bottom of the cliff, the masked man in black looked at Wan Ge and asked softly, "Is Your Highness injured?"
Wan Ge looked at the man in black in front of her, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Did Qin Ji send you?"
The man in black did not deny it and simply nodded.
