Chapter 191: Give Her Your Life (Part 1)
Imperial Concubine Ru seemed a little surprised: "What rumors? Princess, I don't understand what you are saying."
Princess Qinyang raised her eyebrows, looked around, fixed her sight in a certain direction, and said meaningfully: "Since Chu Tang returned from Wulan Mountain, rumors have been spreading in the capital, saying that she had ulterior motives when she went up the mountain that day. I originally thought that it was just some rumors and I didn't need to pay attention to them. But when I went out for some fresh air just now, I happened to hear the beloved daughter of Lord Luo from the Honglu Temple discussing this matter with a few of her close friends. From what she said, it seemed very shameful."
Chen Yanchuan paused, looked up, and his clear and elegant eyebrows were tinged with a hint of frost and snow.
Luo Yingqi, who was sitting at the table, was stunned for a moment.
After realizing what Princess Qinyang was saying, Luo Yingqi's face turned pale and he stood up in a hurry.
"Princess! Princess, you misunderstood! How could I be so bold as to act so rashly? "
Princess Qinyang raised her eyebrows: "Oh? Lord Luo, do you mean that this princess is blind and deaf, and can't even recognize a person and can't even hear a word clearly?"
Luo Yingqi was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, but even if he was given ten times the courage, he would not dare to contradict Princess Qinyang in public!
He hurriedly turned around to look at his daughter, and saw that her face was already pale and panic-stricken, and his heart sank.
Luo Wanwan's limbs were already cold and her mind was blank.
After returning to the banquet, she was still trembling with fear until she saw Princess Qinyang return to her seat and seemed to have no intention of pursuing the matter further. Only then did she feel relieved and thought she had escaped a disaster.
Who would have thought that she would suddenly bring it up at this time!
Emperor Mu Wu's face was even more displeased, and his brows knitted together: "What rumor? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Of course they dare not tell His Majesty about these words." Princess Qinyang shrugged, "It's nothing more than saying that Chu Tang's rescue of my brother that day was not a coincidence, but a careful plan. I didn't expect that she almost lost her life in order to save my brother, and then someone dared to slander her like this! I guess she made a great contribution this time and made people jealous? In fact, when she saved the eldest princess before, some people were secretly jealous and very dissatisfied. I didn't expect it to be so serious this time that even such rumors were spread!"
Princess Qinyang had a hint of mockery on her lips: "That's right, she is an orphan, without anyone to rely on, and not long ago she was almost pushed into a fire pit by her own uncle. Isn't it possible for anyone to step on her?"
Luo Wanwan opened her mouth and wanted to defend herself, but every word Princess Qinyang said was true, so how could she refute it?
Luo Yingqi didn't care about anything else and hurriedly knelt down to apologize.
"I am not a good teacher, I hope you can forgive me!"
Princess Qinyang glanced at him and said, "Lord Luo is really interesting. What kind of apology are you saying to me?"
Luo Yingqi was extremely panicked, his shoulders were shaking slightly, and he had many words stuck in his throat but didn't know how to start.
"Your humble servant, your humble servant..."
The eldest princess, who had not spoken a word from beginning to end, watched all this coldly and finally spoke.
"Chu Tang saved Yanchuan twice, and his kindness is profound. I don't know where these rumors came from, and the person who spread them deserves death!"
Everyone fell silent, and the air in the huge hall seemed to be frozen.
Everyone knows that the eldest princess is extremely protective of Ye Chutang. After what happened today, the Luo family is likely to be in big trouble!
In the dead silence, a deep and clear male voice broke the peace.
"That day, this prince and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi met in the pavilion of Wulan Mountain to play chess and drink tea. It was purely accidental that I met Miss Ye Er. She went there to burn incense for her deceased parents and brother, so she climbed the mountain step by step and knelt down to pay homage."
There was a hint of coldness between his gentle and elegant eyes.
"Even if I sacrifice my life to repay Second Miss Ye's kindness, I'm afraid it won't be enough."
