"You also said it, it's a motive, not evidence! A motive doesn't mean I must have done it!"
Rong Yehua retorted angrily.
Her great-grandfather, who had always been kind and protective of her, did not stand firm to protect her this time, which made her feel like she was falling into the abyss.
As for Xiao Xian...
She was devoted to him and put her whole heart on him, but she was never able to warm his heart.
"Rong Yehua, how can you be so vicious?" Xiao Xian's eyebrows were cold and the disgust in his eyes was not concealed at all.
"I……"
"Your Highness! Prince Chen! This matter has nothing to do with Princess Yehua!"
A deep voice suddenly reached everyone's ears, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
Facing the complex and diverse gazes of the crowd, Taji walked forward slowly and knelt down with his back straight.
Rong Wei frowned deeply: "What did you mean by that just now?"
"I have admired Princess Ye Hua for many years and cannot bear to see her suffer any injustice.
Obviously, Miss Qu is of the same age as her, or even one year younger than her. After becoming sworn sisters with the prince, Princess Ye Hua will have to call Miss Qu "Aunt Zeng".
Princess Ye Hua is the flower of the vassal state. She was born into a noble status and was personally taught by the prince. The subordinate is well aware of his humble status and can only hide his love deep in his heart.
"These past few days, seeing Princess Ye Hua worried and troubled every day, I couldn't bear it, so I had this thought. Please, Your Highness, punish me!"
After Taji finished speaking, he bowed deeply.
Qu Li stared deeply at his face.
From what Taji had just said, she only believed that he liked Rong Yehua, and she also believed that Rong Yehua was worried every day after knowing that she was going to become sworn sisters with Rong Wei.
As for his claim that he had deliberately tampered with the horse, she didn't believe it at all!
Rong Wei's face turned pale and he shouted, "Nonsense! You are the soldier I brought in, the one I trust the most. How could you do such a thing?"
After saying that, he raised his foot and kicked Taji on the shoulder.
Even though he was old and had been fighting on horseback for many years, this kick still made Taji spit blood.
Taji wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and knelt in front of him again.
Rong Wei closed his eyes tightly and said to Qu Li, "Qu Li, what do you want to do about this?"
Qu Li smiled but didn't speak for a long time.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment.
Xiao Xian said with disgust, "King Zhongshan, such a treacherous subordinate will only become a black sheep sooner or later if he keeps him around."
Taji was raised by Rongwei Primary School and was treated almost like a son.
Upon hearing this, Zhuoli also knelt down and said, "Your Highness, Taji must have been confused for a moment. I hope Your Highness will consider Taji's loyalty over the years and show some leniency."
Qu Li just watched the scene coldly.
Everyone could see that Taji simply wanted to take the blame for Rong Yehua, but no one said it out loud.
Everyone just went along with the mistake and wanted to help Rong Yehua get away with it.
"Hehehe!" Qu Li couldn't control himself and laughed out loud.
At this moment, her laughter was somewhat abrupt.
Everyone's eyes shifted to Qu Li's face.
"King Zhongshan, Qu Li truly respects everything you've done for Dagan and stability, but Qu Li can't reach your height!"
These words were powerful and the rejection was decisive and decisive.
Rong Wei's face turned pale and blue, "Qu Li..."
Qu Li smiled faintly, "I've always thought that although Princess Ye Hua was willful, she had a basic sense of right and wrong. She didn't even have the courage to take responsibility for her own actions. I really don't want to be an elder to someone like her!"
After saying that, she didn't even look at Rongwei, and said to Tianqing, "Let's go back."
Rongwei felt a sharp pain in his heart. He raised his hand and pressed his chest hard, trying his best to suppress the heart pain.
Rong Yehua was about to scold Qu Li, but was so frightened by the look he gave him that he had to swallow back the words.
Tian Qing muttered quietly, "This Princess Ye Hua is truly shameless."
Qu Li couldn't help laughing: "Instead of being forced to marry someone who doesn't love me, I might as well choose Taji."
Whether Rong Yehua will be happy in the future and whether he can live freely depends on her choice.
"Miss Qu!" Erhuo drove over in a carriage. "Please get in."
Qu Li nodded, and with Tianqing's help, he got back into the carriage.
"Go to Shadow Pavilion."
After the academy was opened, she planned to go to Southern Qi. Before leaving Dagan, she wanted to find out who this new imperial concubine was.
"yes."
When the carriage curtain was lowered, Erhuo glanced at Tianqing.
His gaze was so intense that it made Tianqing blush and his heart beat faster.
Qu Li swept away his previous depressed mood, supported his chin with one hand, and looked at Tianqing with a smile.
Tianqing touched her eyes that seemed to be able to see through her at a glance, and quickly lowered his head.
"My lady, please don't look at me like that."
"Then how can I see it?" Qu Li held up his eyelids and moved closer.
Tianqing was extremely embarrassed.
"Erhuo seems to be a reliable person and he cares about you very much." As she said this, she glanced at the silk flower on Tianqing's hair.
"This servant just wants to serve the young lady well."
Qu Li was about to say something when Erhuo, who had been listening intently, suddenly spoke up in a firm tone, "Miss Qu, I've been in love with Miss Tianqing since I was in Xiling! If Miss Qu decides to marry Miss Tianqing to me, I can't guarantee her wealth and honor, but I will definitely ensure she lives a carefree life! I will never let her suffer even the slightest injustice."
Tianqing's face was so red that it could almost boil an egg.
She lifted the car curtain and angrily scolded, "Erhuo, who wants to marry you? Aren't you ashamed to say such things?"
Erhuo opened his mouth, feeling very aggrieved.
Qu Li smiled and joked, "Alright, men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Erhuo, if you really want to marry me, then show your sincerity!"
"Alright, I will make sure Miss Qu leaves Miss Tianqing in my care!"
Tianqing bit her red lips, her big eyes full of shyness.
On the other side, after Qu Li left, Rong Wei was so angry that he spat out blood.
Rong Yehua's pupils dilated, "Great-grandfather!"
"Yehua, you promised your great-grandfather one thing." Rong Wei was panting heavily, but the strength of his grip on Rong Yehua's hand was constantly increasing.
"Great-grandfather, you said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree to it."
"You can do it."
Rong Yehua felt a sense of unease inexplicably in his heart, and said in a low voice, "Great-grandfather, please don't make things difficult for me."
"You can definitely do it."
"You, you say."
"I want you to come back to Fanyi with me."
Rong Yehua's pupils suddenly dilated, and he looked at Rong Wei in disbelief, who didn't look like he was joking. "Great-grandfather, do you mean what I understand?"
