Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief. "As for your marriage with Lord Qing, if it really doesn't work out, ask your elder brother to help you. Don't let yourself be wronged."

"I have already told you, my Lord, that if he does not come to cancel the engagement within a month, I will ask you to do it."

"Are you trying to give him respect, totally disregarding your own reputation?"

Xie Ying looked at Xiao Yao, "Your Majesty, women's reputations are always precious, and I certainly care about them. However, I was the one who broke the contract this time, so I should bear the consequences and should not affect Lord Qing's search for a better girl."

"You're right. I hope that in the near future, whether it's a man or a woman, even after getting engaged, if they have different personalities or different values, they should part ways amicably."

"Your Majesty is wise and will surely achieve your wish."

"I hope we can witness this great era together." After saying that, Xiao Yao looked around the room, then looked at Xie Ying, "Maybe you got out of bed?"

Xie Ying shook his head.

"Then let my brother come and take you back."

"Is this, is this really appropriate?"

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. He caused the trouble himself, so he should bear the consequences himself!"

Xie Ying's heart was pounding. Although she was obviously very happy, she was also a little scared. What if this backfired? Wouldn't she be the evil bitch with ulterior motives in the storybook?

Xiao Yao smiled, "Seize the opportunity. It's so bold and natural for a man to pursue a woman. Why can't we women take the initiative to pursue the men we like? Don't put yourself in such a low position. You are the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion. You are of noble status and are a perfect match for His Royal Highness the Prince of Chen who has grown up and returned!"

"I'll go help you right away!"

Seeing Xiao Yao turn around and leave, Xie Ying could only nod and say goodbye, "Farewell, Your Majesty."

Xiao Yao did not look back.

She was no less excited than Xie Ying. Today was the beginning of all fate. If she seized this opportunity, along with the incense given by Master Ding, and still couldn't win over her brother, then she would personally find the most talented and capable husband for A Ying.

With her sister-in-law around, who in the world would dare to let Aying suffer any injustice? She would kill his entire family!

"Ayao?"

When Xie Yunchu saw Xiao Yao coming out, he hurried over to support her, "You have to make the decision for A Ying."

Xiao Yao: “???” Something’s going on, okay, so she said with a straight face, “I know what you’re going to say, my brother carried A Ying all the way, my brother, you have to take responsibility!”

Xiao Chen was stunned. If he didn't pay attention, he would have thought Yao'er was talking about his father.

He smiled, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that it was you who proposed to remove the shackles of shame from women? You must marry her just by hugging her? Then wouldn't it be even more difficult to achieve a divorce after marriage if they are not suitable?"

Xiao Yao choked, thinking of the time when her father allowed women to divorce, but only a few women did so. "This is not contradictory. Ah Ying is a conservative girl. If you hug her, you have to take responsibility."

"Otherwise, if she gets married in the future and her husband's family uses this matter to complain, wouldn't your heart hurt, brother? Even if it's different, you should still feel guilty!"

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yao, then at Xie Yunchu. The other imperial doctors were no longer in the main hall. There were only three of them. "I am just eager to save people. Even if I am responsible, it should be a mutual consent, not a word from Yao'er."

"Brother Imperial——"

Xiao Chen raised his hand, "No need to say more." His heart was in turmoil. Even if he had to do it all over again, he would not regret it. "Even if it wasn't Xie Ying, I would save any woman who might be in danger. Do I have to marry every woman I save?"

Although we cannot hastily stipulate monogamy now, this is what Yaoer advocates and is the vision of the Cangyun Kingdom for the future.

Xiao Yao stomped her feet in anger and said, forget it, this doesn’t make sense.

Xie Yunchu said: "But from now on, Ah Ying, she, she..."

Just now, he and Xiao Chen heard clearly what Imperial Doctor Lan and Imperial Doctor Chen said. Even if there was an empress like A Yao ruling the Cang Yun Kingdom, how could the pedantic thinking of thousands of years disappear in an instant?

"What will happen to Ah Ying in the future?"

Xiao Yao was a little puzzled, "What happened to Aying?"

Xie Yunchu asked, "Did Imperial Doctor Lan and Imperial Doctor Chen not tell you?"

"say what?"

Xie Yunchu took a deep breath and said, "Anyway, if the two of them are fighting, it is impossible for Ah Ying to have a bloody marriage in the future."

Xiao Yao opened her mouth, "How could this be?" Although she knew that blood should not be used to test a woman's chastity, but thinking of Xie Ying's pale appearance just now, she must have suffered.

Xie Yunchu repeated what Imperial Physician Lan and Imperial Physician Chen had said, "Anyway, if my brother doesn't take responsibility, what will A Ying do if she is blamed in the future?"

Xiao Yao originally wanted to say that if anyone dared to bully Aying, she would twist off that person’s head!

But looking at Xiao Chen, she thought, "Royal brother, you are the one who caused this trouble. This matter still depends on what you and A Ying think."

"Aying has difficulty walking, so please take care of her when you leave the palace, and send her back home." Xiao Yao said, and pulled Xie Yunchu away.

Xie Yunchu: "But, but..." He hadn't looked at Aying yet, "Is Aying really okay?" he asked Xiao Yao quietly.

Xiao Yao said: "Don't worry, it will be fine after a period of recuperation. It's not a big problem, it's just that it's inconvenient for you to walk now."

"I'll go see her."

Xiao Yao had no choice but to stand there and wait.

Xie Yunchu went into the room to take a look, and spoke a few words to Xie Ying. Seeing that she was indeed fine, and fearing that Xiao Chen had left, he immediately left the room.

"Thank you for your concern, my brother." Xie Yunchu said.

Xiao Chen opened his mouth, just smiled and said nothing. He didn't know what to say.

"Royal brother, don't worry too much. Ah Ying is not an unreasonable person," Xiao Yao smiled, not wanting to annoy her brother. "In matters of love, both parties should be in love. At worst, the Autumn Examination will be held soon. Even if you and Lord Qing can't be together, I will choose the most handsome and talented scholar for Ah Ying during the Autumn Examination!"

Xie Yunchu smiled, "That's right."

As soon as the two left, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and his clenched fists relaxed from his sleeves.

Thinking about how guilty I felt just now, I couldn't help but laugh.

Xiao Chen stood up and wanted to find a few eunuchs to come over, but when he thought of her pitiful appearance when she was afraid to move and had to be held by him all the way, he gave up.

How could those eunuchs have the strength to carry her all the way?

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen walked towards Xie Ying's room.

The girl was lying on the bed with a pale face. When she saw him, she felt shy for a moment.

"Your Highness." Xie Ying called out gratefully. She felt that this kind of binding would make people uncomfortable, especially when she thought of what the emperor said when he left, that he would ask Prince Chen to take her back to the palace. "Just now, the emperor asked Your Highness to take me back to the palace. I am very scared. How dare I trouble Your Highness again? Please notify Xie Zheng after you leave the palace, and Ying'er will come to pick me up."
