Fast Transmigration Female Supporting Role: Honkai Protagonist's Face-Slapping Strategy

Chapter 23 The Peerless Medical Concubine 8
"The Princess is right, I was indeed the one who saved her." Lian Che said flatly.

As soon as the words fell, there was a coaxing explosion in the hall. No one expected such a reversal.

Everyone knows that Lian Che has been impatient to get rid of Chen Xi recently, and it was clear that he wanted to break up with Chen Xi just now, otherwise he would not have said a word for Xiling Houfu for so long.

But now he actually took the initiative to admit Zhao Chenxi's words. Isn't it too strange?

Emperor Qi naturally also noticed Lian Che's strangeness, but in the hall, he personally admitted that it was a foregone conclusion, and this was the only way to let this matter go.

Qian Shilang was finally demoted by Emperor Qi to a remote place as a small official.

Regardless of whether Lian Che is still able to ascend to the throne, it doesn't matter to him.

When the matter came to an end, Emperor Qi casually comforted Chen Xi and left. Naturally, the others had no reason to stay here.

Chen Xi helped Princess Anping up, and when she looked up, she saw Shen Yanqing in white clothes in front of her.

Lian Che hurriedly walked up to Shen Yanqing, "Qingqing, listen to my explanation, things are not what you see."

Shen Yanqing didn't even give him a look out of the corner of his eyes, only sarcasm remained on his ice-cold face. "It's just something I don't want. Since the Princess has already got what she wanted, she should take care of it in the future. Don't drag me into your midst."

Fuck, how innocent I am.

"Qingqing, don't get me wrong, come with me first, and I'll explain to you." Lian Che saw that his beloved woman had misunderstood, and when he got excited, he directly took Shen Yanqing's hand.

Chen Xi is really convinced, this is the hall, no one dares to say anything if he really thinks he is an onion?

"Third Highness, please let go." Shen Yan said with a small face.

Chen Xi quietly watched the heroine show off.

Don't you know how to use poison? I really want people to let go. It's not just a matter of moving your fingers.
Just as the two were in a stalemate, Lin Zhiyan, dressed in a blue dress, strode over and said, "I've seen the Third Highness."

After saying that, without waiting for Lian Che to answer, he straightened up and his eyes fell quietly on the hands of the two of them intertwined, "What are you doing, Your Highness?"

Even the legitimate husband said so, even Che could only let go no matter how unwilling he was.

Seeing that he let go, Lin Zhiyan said to Shen Yan with no extra emotion on his face, "The carriage has arrived, let's go."

I don't know if it's out of anger for Lianche or to pretend to be affectionate in front of outsiders, Shen Yanqing took Lin Zhiyan's hand directly, Chen Xi noticed that Lin Zhiyan froze obviously, and Lian Che over there had pinched veins in his hands .

Lian Che stared at the backs of the two leaving without blinking, as if he was the one who was wearing a hat.

Chen Xi curled her lips disapprovingly, and was dragged away by Princess Anping.

Princess Anping was not in good health, and was forced to rest by the Marquis of Xiling as soon as she returned to the mansion.

Chen Xi went back to her room, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then went to the study.

The Marquis of Xiling was already waiting there, "You should explain to Weifu what happened today, and what happened last night, you should tell Dad exactly what happened last night, and you must not hide a single word."

Chen Xi knew she couldn't hide it from him, and she didn't intend to hide it.

In fact, in the plot, the original owner only told him about being humiliated, but never mentioned that Lian Che did it. If he had explained it earlier, with the current power of the Xilinghou Mansion, as long as he was on guard against Lian Che, even if he ended up If you can't fight, you won't end up in such a miserable situation in the plot.

Moreover, from today's point of view, just relying on Chen Xi's few words, Xiling Hou can cover everything. Such a smart and powerful person is really determined to challenge Lian Che, and it is still unclear who will win the battle.

Of course, the premise is that there is no fucking darling of heaven.

Half an hour later, Chen Xi, who had finished explaining the cause and effect, let out a long breath, but Xi Linghou slapped the table angrily.

"Good for you Third Prince, good for you Lian Che, can I, Xiling, feel sorry for you in the slightest?"

Chen Xi handed over a cup of tea, "Father calm down first."

Xilinghou still patted the table, his eyes staring like copper bells, "Say, are you still unable to let go of that kid?"

Chen Xi was speechless, "From the moment he wanted to sell me to a brothel, I had no illusions."

Only then did Xiling Hou heave a sigh of relief, took a sip from the teacup, "Really?"

Chen Xi nodded desperately, "It can't be true anymore."

"It's fine if you don't face him. Now that the river hasn't crossed, you just want to tear down the bridge. You think I, Xiling, are too easy to bully, right?"

"Well, what Dad said was, what plans does Dad have in the future?" Chen Xi asked hastily.

Xiling Hou took another sip of tea, sat quietly on the chair, tapped the rim of the cup unconsciously with his fingers, "Let's retire the engagement first."

"Why?" Chen Xi was a little dissatisfied. Wouldn't the couple be fulfilled by retiring the engagement?She could not see that the two were happy.Hmph, it's better to drag them to death!
The teacup fell on the table with a bang, "You said you put it down?"

"He had such a big reaction when he said he wanted to break off the engagement. He is the only man in the world. Break off the engagement, break off the engagement immediately!"

Chen Xi was dumbfounded, she never thought that this cheap father would have such a reaction, "Father, I didn't mean that, I just thought that if we divorced, wouldn't it be in his favor?"

"Then we have to annul the engagement. It doesn't matter how old you are. Since he is afraid to do anything now, we annul the engagement in advance, so that you can find another good family."

Chenxi was speechless for a moment. No wonder Zhao Chenxi's first wish was to keep the Hou Mansion. This father really loved her to the core.

"Father, I didn't want to quit the engagement because I couldn't bear it. It's just that he is fascinated by that woman now. He is the one who is eager to get rid of this engagement. Why don't we wait for him to act and use this as a bargaining chip?"

Before Chenxi could finish talking about Xiling Hou, she waved her hands impatiently, "No, good girl, if you lose your reputation because of this kind of thing, how can you find your husband's family in the future?"

Chen Xi was completely speechless.

"Don't worry about this matter. The marriage must be canceled. As for him still wanting to deal with my Zhao family, I'll see if he has the ability."

There is more than one adult prince, do you really think that without the support of the Marquis of Xiling, Lian Che would be where he is today?

Now because of such a thing, he not only wants to divorce, but also wants to kill his own daughter. The more Xilinghou thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally he kicked Chenxi out too.

When Chen Xi returned to the room, it was already dark, and when he opened the door, the dim candle in his hand could only illuminate a palm away.

Chen Xi sensitively felt something was wrong, and there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at her in the darkness.

Is there someone in her room?
In the afternoon, she didn't like being served by others, so she sent the maid away long ago, and it was definitely not a maid at this time.
