"That volume of stories that implied that Abao was dissolute and shameless became popular in the imperial capital, and as the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, it was impossible for her to stop the people from reading the stories."

"As you wish, Abao cannot clear the relationship between her and Zhang Lanheng."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingyue cried aggrievedly, "Brother, are you blaming me for Abao?"

Xiao Yunzheng stood in the room and closed his eyes tiredly. "Father and mother, in addition to the original matter, this time we are here to find a way to help each other and be respectful to each other, and suppress the matter of the book."

"Father means to choose a son-in-law for you as soon as possible."

"No!" Xiao Jingyue suddenly said angrily: "Brother, you know that I and..."

After all, he had not completely lost his mind.

Xiao Jingyue still remembered that this was the west courtyard of the Imperial Medical Bureau, which was the royal family's territory.

She gritted her teeth in resentment, "I won't marry!"

"Xiao Jingyue!" Xiao Yunzheng suppressed his anger and scolded, "If you continue to be stubborn, do you want the entire Jiangnan Palace to be buried with you?!"

"How do you know he will lose?!"

Xiao Jingyue retorted, "The man I'm looking for must be the best among men!"

Xiao Yunzheng suppressed his anger and tried to reason.

But Xiao Jingyue gave an ultimatum directly, "I will not marry. If my elder brother and my father and mother really want to force me to marry! Then I will die!"

The young man, who has shouldered heavy responsibilities since childhood, now has a complicated look in his eyes.

Disappointment, fatigue, and regret.

Upon seeing his elder brother like this, Xiao Jingyue became anxious and wanted to argue anxiously.

"Brother, listen to me..."

But this time, Xiao Yunzheng interrupted her directly, "You are not a child anymore. You can't cry every time something goes wrong and think that everything will be forgiven."

Xiao Jingyue, who was originally still crying sadly, withdrew her hand that was holding Xiao Yunzheng's left arm to beg for mercy.

She angrily said sarcastically: "You are her Xiao Cejun now, so you should naturally speak for her! But elder brother, do you think she really cares about you?!"

As a sibling, Xiao Jingyue knows her eldest brother's pain best.

She was used to being unbridled in front of her elder brother. At this moment, she was filled with anger and said without thinking: "She seemed to be good to you back then, but at the critical moment, she still abandoned you! Because of her! You froze in the heavy snow all night and almost died!!"

I wanted to pretend I knew nothing, but when Xiao Jingyue mentioned this——

Xiao Yunzheng took the opportunity to mention it casually, "I asked her about that letter back then."

"She said that after receiving it, she put it aside and later lost it, so she never opened it."

"She said? She received the letter?" Xiao Jingyue blurted out.

She thought she hid it well, but the sarcasm at the corner of her lips still revealed her thoughts.

At this point, Xiao Yunzheng already knew the truth.

But he said nothing.

The King of Jiangnan had many wives and concubines and many children.

Since he was young, his mother often told him that as the eldest brother, he must take good care of his younger sisters.

But it was obvious that he was taking care of his sister in the wrong way.

The next afternoon, Abao woke up with a splitting headache.

But she saw a person sleeping on the edge of the bed, and her hand was still held by this person.

The young man's sleeping posture was the same as when he was awake, straight and solemn.

Like a wood carving or clay sculpture.

But at this moment, this upright statue, shrouded in the early morning paleness and the interlaced light and shadow of the warm morning breeze, makes the young man look very fragile.

Po tried to pull his hand back, but for some unknown reason, his hand wouldn't move.
