Chapter 59 True Fate

The three siblings looked downstairs following the sound.

They saw a frail young man in a moon-white robe standing at the front of the carriage, surrounded by a surging crowd.

[This is a woman dressed as a man! ]

[She is not dressed very well, I can see through her at a glance! ]

Xia Miaoyuan stared at the frail young man with wide eyes.

She keenly noticed that the so-called young man was actually a girl.

The frail young man sneaked out today without telling her family. She was late and did not buy a seat in the restaurant in advance. In order to watch the beheading, she stood at the front of the carriage.

Who would have thought that when the beheading was over, the crowd around her surged quickly, squeezing her so hard that she almost fell off.

What's worse is that the two ruffians had already seen that she was a young lady and coveted her beauty.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the two ruffians sneaked up to the frail young man, squeezed on him, grabbed her robe, and took the opportunity to take advantage of her.

The frail young man's maid was already frightened and jumped and screamed, but there was nothing she could do.

"You protect my sister, I'll go save people!"

The prince stuffed Xia Miaoyuan into the arms of the second prince, turned over and jumped out of the window.

[Ah! The prince is in trouble!]

Xia Miaoyuan was frightened by the prince's behavior and looked out of the window in a daze.

The prince was agile, just like a monkey, and he jumped downstairs smoothly with the help of the flags on each floor of the wine house.

He grabbed one of the thugs by the bun with one hand and kicked him down.

Then he did the same thing to another thug.

"Ouch!"

"Ouch! Who dares to hit me?!"

One of the thugs got up and shouted.

With a few swish sounds, the prince's two guards, Awen and Awu, also jumped down from the building.

"Open your eyes and look at who this is?" Awen drew out his sword and pressed it against the thug's neck.

The thug looked up and saw that the prince was dressed in gorgeous clothes and the jade hairpin on his head was not an ordinary item. The two guards were very imposing and did not look like ordinary servants. His arrogance immediately diminished.

"I was just drunk and talking nonsense, nonsense." The two ruffians quickly put on a flattering smile and turned around to run away.

"Still want to run away?" The prince stepped forward and grabbed the collar of one ruffian.

The other ruffian was also twisted by Awu's arm.

"Send them both to Shuntian Prefecture and say that they took advantage of the chaos to do evil and disturb public order. Let Lord Zhang punish them." The prince ordered in a deep voice.

Awen and Awu took the order and left with the two ruffians.

The frail young man who had just stood at the front of the carriage had been helped down by the maid.

"Thank you for your help, brother." The frail young man bowed deeply to the prince.

"Girl...ah, you are too kind!" The prince hadn't even said the word "girl" when he felt it was inappropriate and changed his words immediately.

She was a girl, and she dressed as a man on purpose, just because she didn't want people to know she was a woman. If she was exposed, wouldn't that be embarrassing?

"Young master, why don't you come with me to sit upstairs first? There are still many people here, so it's not easy to walk. It's better to wait until the crowd has dispersed." The prince said in a gentle tone. "

Okay." The frail young master nodded.

[Oh, what a beautiful sister.]

Xia Miaoyuan couldn't help but sigh when she got closer to the frail young master.

Although she had a man's bun and no makeup on her face, her beautiful features and small face were still unforgettable.

After the prince asked her to sit down, he asked with a smile, "What's your name, sir?"

"My name is Rong Chu, and I'm the grandson of the Minister of the Imperial Household." The frail young man replied.

[Huh? Minister of the Imperial Household? Lord Rong? ]

[So familiar...]

Xia Miaoyuan rubbed her hands, her brain working quickly.

[Isn't that Rongpin's family!]

[I remember it was written in the book that Rongpin is the daughter of the Minister of the Imperial Household. ]

[Then this beautiful sister, isn't she the granddaughter of Lord Rong, Rongpin's niece, Rong Chuyue! ]

Xia Miaoyuan thought of the woman's identity smoothly, and smiled proudly.

"May I ask who the benefactor is?" Rong Chuyue bowed her head slightly shyly.

"My last name is Xia, Xia Da, and this is my younger brother Xia Er." The prince wanted to be honest about his identity, but when he heard his sister say that this girl was a relative of Concubine Rong, he immediately made up a name.

The second prince looked at the prince in confusion and murmured, "Hello, Master Rong, I'm Xia Er."

"Wow, this little baby is so cute, is it Brother Xia's daughter?" Rong Chuyue noticed Xia Miaoyuan in the second prince's arms and asked.

The prince looked a little embarrassed: "No, no, this is my sister."

"Wow, I didn't expect Master Xia to have such a little sister. Your sister is so cute." Rong Chuyue teased Xia Miaoyuan.

[She is Rong Chuyue, so isn't that the prince's fate! ]

Xia Miaoyuan clapped her hands excitedly and grinned at Rong Chuyue.

What? Fate?

The prince's face suddenly turned pale. He regretted so much that he had concealed his identity just now.

[Prince Guoguo, you must hold her tightly this time and don't let go! ]

The prince and the second prince were all shocked when they heard this.

What does "don't let go this time" mean?

[I remember in the book, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, when admiring the lanterns, Prince Guoguo rescued Rong Chuyue who was dressed as a woman. ]

[Rong Chuyue has been secretly in love with Prince Guoguo since then. ]

[Later, when Prince Guoguo was discussing marriage, Rong Chuyue was also recommended. ]

[Originally, this was an excellent marriage, but Lin Wan'er framed Rong Chuyue, causing Prince Guoguo to misunderstand that she was not faithful to her husband. 】

【The two of them missed their marriage fate from then on. 】

【Later, Grand Tutor Jiang usurped power. Concubine Rong was originally at odds with Concubine Jiang, so the Jiang family took the opportunity to retaliate against the Rong family. 】

【The Rong family was tragically ransacked...】

When the prince heard this, he felt his heart was pulled up.

At this time, the crowd on the street had dispersed, and Caishikou had returned to its former state.

"There are fewer people on the street, and I should go back." Rong Chuyue bowed to the prince.

"Thank you again, Brother Xia, for your rescue."

"We will meet again if we are lucky." At this point, two blushes appeared on Rong Chuyue's face, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

【Wow, it seems that in this life, Rong Chuyue fell in love with me, Da Guoguo, at first sight the first time she met him. 】

【The plot is the same, except that the romantic Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival has turned into watching a beheading in Caishikou. 】

【No way, what is this, meeting for the first time on such a day. 】

【This plot is so broken. 】

Xia Miaoyuan complained in her heart, while looking at Rong Chuyue reluctantly, babbling.

【Sister-in-law, if your family arranges for you to enter the palace to choose the crown princess in the future, you must come! 】

"Mr. Rong, you don't have to be polite. I believe we will meet again in the future." The prince returned a bow with a smile.

After the Jiang family was convicted and Jiang Zhishan was beheaded, the empress dowager was really depressed for a few days.

She stayed in her own Shoukang Palace, never going out, and refused to see guests. Xia Zhengqi took her dignity into consideration and came to comfort her several times, and she finally got better.

In a blink of an eye, it was the first day of the seventh lunar month.

According to the custom of Daxia, the first day of every month was the day for concubines and royal ladies in the palace to pay their respects to the empress dowager. The

empress dowager had dressed up early and changed into a pale palace dress.

After she was ready, she sat upright on the phoenix chair in the main

hall. At this time, the concubines and royal ladies in all their glory were already waiting in the main hall.

More than twenty women saluted the empress dowager in unison.

The empress dowager then told them to sit down.

At this time, a girl in peach pink clothes walked in from outside.

"Grandma, I'm late."
