Hui Mo took off the raincoat on his body and covered his master tightly. Then he helped him to get on the horse.
Behind them, a light carriage came in the wind and rain and stopped behind them. A person in a snow-white palace dress came down from the carriage.
Hui Mo looked back and saw who the person in the snow-white palace dress was. He was surprised and said: "Thirteenth Princess? Why are you here? "
Xiao Zhangping's snow-white palace dress fluttered in the heavy rain. Soon, it was soaked and stuck to her body. The palace maid held an umbrella for her, but she pushed it away. She looked at them with tears in the corner of her eyes and said: "I chased you all the way. Xiahou Shizi, give up, don't chase anymore … "
Hearing her voice, Xiahou Qing suppressed his cough and said distantly, "What's the reason?"
"How can you chase after her like this?" Xiao Zhangping looked at his pale face and cried: "And … It's useless. Even if you catch up with her, it's useless. Instead, it will hurt her!"
Xiahou Qing's tone was full of distance. He was no longer as tolerant as before. It was as if he was talking to a stranger: "If it weren't for you, she wouldn't be in danger. Why should I believe you?"
In the face of such an indifferent face, Xiao Zhangping subconsciously dodged. But Jiu Si and the others had the same look. Even Hui Mo, who handed her a handkerchief in the moonlight night and asked her not to cry, looked at her with full of vigilance.
This feeling of being isolated and hostile by everyone made Xiao Zhangping's heart very uncomfortable. She opened her mouth and wanted to defend herself. But after she opened her mouth, she couldn't say anything.
Xiahou Qing no longer cared about her and said in a hoarse voice: "Let's go."
Looking at their backs, Xiao Zhangping clenched her fists and finally couldn't help but say the truth loudly: "I'm telling the truth! It's not someone else who stole her, it's her mother and Princess Xin! "
Hui Mo immediately reined his horse, turned back and said: "What?!"
Is it true? This was too inconceivable! They have been investigating the murderer of Lady Ning, but it turned out to be her mother! Is the rain too heavy or the night too late that he heard it wrong?
He subconsciously said: "How is this possible! Are you talking nonsense? You're trying to lie to us again! "
Xiao Zhangping shook his head vigorously to prove himself. "I didn't! If what I said just now is a lie, then let me die alone and without love in this lifetime! "
Huimo's heart moved. He subconsciously took a step closer to her, but he pulled the reins back to his original position. He tried to maintain a cold face and said: "We trusted you before, but you still lied to us. How can I dare to believe you again?"
Xiao Zhangping's face paled even more. The rain had already soaked her cloud-like hair, making her look bleak and pitiful. "I really didn't lie to you this time. Believe me this time. Everything I said is true.
That night, after discussing with you how to escape the marriage, I hurried back to the palace. On the way back, I met Princess He Xin, who was blocking my way. She proposed a deal to me: As long as I helped her complete this plan, creating the illusion that Ning Shu had suddenly died, and then quietly sending Ning Shu out of the capital, leaving Great Yue, she would help me solve the marriage dilemma.
At first, I didn't want to agree because I really couldn't understand her purpose. But no matter how I asked, she refused to tell me the reason. Under my repeated questioning, she directly knelt in front of me and said that as long as Ning Shu stayed in the capital for a day, her life would be in danger at any time. Now the only person who could help her was me.
Seeing her like that, I thought of my own mother. She looked at me with similar eyes before she died … I'm sorry, Prince Xiahou. I know that as long as I agree, I will betray your trust and make you fall into pain. But I really, really can't refuse! And — "
She bit her lips, unable to speak. She didn't dare to say the unbearable words.
But at that time, she did have selfish motives. Seeing him snuggling with her, she felt like her heart was being cut by a knife. She really couldn't accept it. At that moment, the dark voice in her heart defeated all her hesitation.
If, if Ning Shu disappeared, then would she and Prince Xiahou still have a chance? This was the person she had been thinking about for nearly twelve years. How could she be willing to let go? She generously wished him and another woman to be together forever!
