Chi Yue hurried over and saluted when she saw General Chi and the Crown Prince: "Your Highness, Father, what happened? I think someone is calling my name."

Seeing Chi Yue suddenly appear, General Chi felt something was wrong. He was about to go in to stop Lu'er, but Lu'er had already quickly lifted the quilt.

This scared the two people on the bed awake. Chi Suwu was relieved when she saw Shi Lu'er. She was about to tell Lu'er not to tell this to anyone when she heard Chi Yue's voice.

"Lu'er, what happened?" She hurried in and turned around abruptly, "Second sister, I didn't mean to barge in."

The three words "Second sister" completely exploded in the heads of the three men outside.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chi Shang walked in first, and just as he was about to slap Chi Yue in the face, Pei Yanchao grabbed his wrist.

He looked at the vicious look on Pei Yanchao's face, and immediately withdrew his hand in fear, then looked at the two people on the bed in panic.

The moment he saw Chi Suwu and Situ Shang, the thread in his head completely broke, and he hurried out, trying to stop the prince.

But there was no way he could stop the prince now. The prince pushed him away and shouted, "Get out of here!"

The prince has always been kind to others, and this is the first time he has lost his temper.

The moment Chi Suwu saw the prince, she knew that she was finished, everything was over. Situ Shang, on the other hand, looked at the prince provocatively, not caring at all about the other's murderous eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that? No wonder Wu'er doesn't like you." As he spoke, he smelled Chi Suwu's hair.

"Come here, throw these two people into the Sky Prison and wait for your punishment." The prince ordered with a dark face.

"Your Highness." How could General Chi bear to see his beloved daughter locked up in that dark place? He hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down. Chi Suwu also knelt on the ground with him. Seeing this, Chi Yue reluctantly pulled Pei Yanchao and knelt down together.

"Please, for the sake of this old minister, let my daughter go this time."

"Your face?" The prince sneered. Just as he was about to mock, he remembered the Chi family army, and his expression became even darker.

General Chi saw that there was something going on, so he quickly held Chi Suwu down and kowtowed a few times: "Wu'er, why don't you quickly apologize to the prince and tell him what happened."

As he spoke, he desperately winked at Chi Suwu, asking her to put all the blame on Situ Shang and Lu'er.

Chi Suwu was torn between her conscience and her own desires, but in the end, she decided that her own life was more important. She gritted her teeth and said, "Your Highness, it was Lu'er who schemed against me. I didn't want this to happen either. Please believe me."

Lu'er knelt tremblingly beside her early in the morning, but she didn't expect that the young lady would rather put all the responsibility on her than let Situ Shang bear it.

"Miss, it's not you..." Before she could finish her words, General Chi had his men cover her mouth.

"Your Highness, it was this servant girl who schemed against my daughter. Otherwise, she would never have made such a big mistake. And this evil creature, our Chi family feeds him well, but he actually dared to team up with Lu'er to scheme against Wu'er."

General Chi got so excited that he kicked Situ Shang several times, causing Situ Shang to vomit blood immediately.

Chi Yue glanced at him and said softly, "Your Highness, my sister is not that kind of person. She regards you as someone more important than her own life. How could she possibly betray you?"

The life-saving grace made the prince's anger disappear a little. He looked at Chi Yue and said coldly: "From now on, Chi Suwu will stay in the Chi family. If I see her somewhere else, you should know the consequences."

"Yes, Your Highness." General Chi wiped the cold sweat from his head and heard the prince's voice again.

"Since I lost a crown princess in the Chi family, shouldn't the Chi family compensate me with one?"

He looked at Chi Yue and sized her up.

Chi Yue felt his gaze and lowered her head in fear. The prince didn't want to push her too hard: "I'll give you three days to think about it. The fate of Chi Suwu is up to you to decide."

When he said this, everyone knew who he wanted, after all, his eyes showed it clearly.

Situ Shang originally looked indifferent, but when he heard this, anger suddenly burst out in his eyes.

The prince looked at him and laughed sarcastically: "As for him, throw him into the sky prison and be whipped every day. Watch carefully and don't let anyone die."

Situ Shang was quickly dragged away. The prince looked at Chi Yue who had been kneeling on the ground, feeling a little distressed. He stretched out his hand and said, "Get up."

Chi Yue didn't dare to look up, let alone touch him. She forced herself to stand up, and Pei Yanchao quickly supported her.

"Mr. Pei is here too, but I didn't notice him." The prince's eyes were full of warnings, as if he wanted him to see himself clearly.

"Your Highness." Pei Yanchao had almost reached the limit of his patience. Their bodies were all covered with mostly black air, which made Pei Yanchao very uncomfortable. He spoke in a cold voice.

"Miss Chi, see you another day." He said and left.

Chi Yue watched his temperament change drastically, as if he was already turning evil. She glanced at Pei Yanchao.

"Yao'er." After the prince left, General Chi hurriedly helped Chi Suwu up and put clothes on her.

He had never bowed his head to anyone before, but he didn't expect that today he would have to bow his head to this daughter whom he had never even seen.

"Father."

"You heard what the prince said just now. Wu'er is your sister. You must save her." General Chi wanted to impress Chi Yue with her emotions and let her marry him on her own initiative.

Chi Yue's body shook, and she looked up at General Chi in disbelief: "Father."

Her tone was a little urgent and she turned her head away sadly.

Pei Yanchao looked at General Chi and said coldly, "I am still here, but my father-in-law asked my wife to remarry. Does he really not take me seriously?"

Compared to powerful people like the crown prince, Pei Yanchao was just a small top scholar, and General Chi really didn't take him seriously.

If he had not obtained the imperial decree at the beginning, he would never have married her to him.

"Yao'er, as long as you nod, Dad will get a divorce for you today." Seeing that Chi Yue still didn't move, he lowered his head and advised, "Yao'er, Dad has never asked you for anything before, so consider this as Dad asking you for help. You should always think about your mother and brother. If something happens to the Chi family, what will they do?"

Chi Yue sneered in her heart. Why did they all like to use those two insignificant people to threaten her?
