Chapter 923: Estrangement



"Li'er, I'm sorry for causing you trouble for no reason."

Yinzhen caught up with Jiang Ranli and apologized calmly.

Such rumors did give Jiang Ranli a headache, but Yinzhen was also a victim. The spread of such rumors had a great impact on his reputation. Moreover, he had apologized at this time, so Jiang Ranli didn't know what to say.

"It's okay, these are just some boring rumors spread by boring people. The innocent will be innocent, and there is no need for the Fourth Master to apologize," Jiang Ranli said.

Yinzhen raised the corners of his lips slightly when he heard this, but said nothing.

Both of them wanted to leave the palace, so they walked together, but they didn't say anything along the way.

After leaving the palace, Jiang Ran got into her carriage as if escaping. The feeling of being with Yinzhen was too depressing, and she was somewhat unable to accept it.

However, Jiang Ranli never expected that this trip out of the palace without them even saying a word would be spread out by some busybody and even exaggerated.

Rumor has it that Jiang Ranli and Yinzhen's secret meeting was exposed, and she was summoned by Emperor Kangxi to be questioned. Later, Jiang Ranli threatened to commit suicide and repeatedly admitted her mistakes. Emperor Kangxi forgave her serious sin because of the loyalty of Jiang Ranli's mother's family. Unexpectedly, Jiang Ranli was still unwilling to give up her evil intentions. As soon as she left the Yangxin Palace, she went to harass Yinzhen again.

Listening to what Si Dai had relayed, Jiang Ranli was speechless. It was said that the ancient times were too harsh on women. As long as something bad happened, public opinion would blame the women. Take the rumors about her and Yinzhen for example, look at how she was slandered. She was completely turned into a two-timing and shameless woman.

"Li'er, are those rumors outside true?" Fourteenth Prince rushed over from outside with great momentum.

Looking at him, Jiang Ranli raised his hand to support his forehead with a headache, "Fourteenth Master, you can tell it's not true even if you use your toes to think about it. If there really is something going on between me and Fourth Master, the Emperor will definitely chop off my head."

If she really did something that brought shame to the royal family, Emperor Kangxi would certainly not tolerate her no matter how much he loved her. Would she still have the chance to sit here and be questioned by the Fourteenth Prince?

After hearing her explanation, the Fourteenth Prince looked relaxed. He sat down opposite her and drank a pot of tea in one gulp. "What those people outside said is too much. Just wait, I'll go find someone to resolve this matter."

"No need," Jiang Ranli saw the Fourteenth Prince was about to go out and quickly stopped her.

"No need? Li'er, if you let this matter continue, it will have a great impact on your reputation," the Fourteenth Prince said anxiously.

"No need, Master Jiu has already ordered someone to handle this matter."

When Yinzhen heard the news, he immediately knew that they were just rumors. After reassuring Jiang Ranli not to worry, he sent someone to deal with it.

The Fourteenth Prince felt somewhat annoyed upon hearing this, and sighed that he could never compare to Yin'er's feelings for Jiang Ranli.

The Eighth Prince’s Mansion.

Yinzhen, the Eighth Prince, the Tenth Prince, and the Fourteenth Prince were sitting in the study discussing matters.

"The rumors about Li'er and the Fourth Prince were obviously spread intentionally by someone with ill intentions, with the aim of damaging Li'er's reputation and indirectly damaging the reputation of the Ninth Prince," the Eighth Prince analyzed.

The Tenth Prince was puzzled after hearing this, "This incident only caused great damage to Li'er's reputation, how could it affect the reputation of the Ninth Prince?"

"Old Nine now holds a solid position in the court. Some people don't want to see our power continue to grow, so they use Li'er to indirectly damage Old Nine's reputation," the Eighth Prince explained.
