After the divorce, King Zhan cried and begged me to remarry

Chapter 518 Accidental fall
Chu Nanli had never expected that Ye Jiuxiao would think so.

She took the initiative to distance the two of them in order to better think about their relationship.

But what Ye Jiuxiao did made everything she had done before become useless.

Of course, she doesn't know about this yet. Once she finds out, she won't be able to make changes.

Lin Xuan'er sent her here and was not in a hurry to leave.

After helping her put everything away, Lin Xuan'er stopped busy and found a place to sit opposite her.

"Do you still remember the rumors from the past few days? Those rumors about the goddess of Chu."

Lin Xuan'er suddenly brought up this topic, which made Chu Nanli's eyebrows jump.

However, she was obviously just chatting and did not notice the difference in Chu Nanli's expression.

"I also heard this from my grandfather. His old man said that the Chu State seems to have sent someone to deliver documents to His Majesty, and the goddess of the Chu State will be coming to the capital soon."

"But the prince is not responsible for this matter. Come to think of it, he has never told you about it."

Chu Nanli shifted her gaze unconsciously, "But I heard that the goddess of Chu State is closely related to the fate of Chu State and cannot leave Chu State easily?"

This was not hearsay, but information left in the memory of the original owner.

However, there are naturally discrepancies between facts and rumors.

These rumors were actually spread deliberately by the original owner's family in order to protect the original owner.

The original owner's family's love for the original owner is indeed extremely precious.

"Maybe it's just an envoy from the Chu State who is coming to visit," Chu Nanli continued his speculation, "but the rumors spread and it became like this."

She has contacted the original owner's family, and they only said that someone would come and contact her to check on her situation before making any plans.

However, Chu Nanli could also understand. After all, the blood relatives of the original owner all held important positions in Chu State and could not leave easily.

Moreover, she was not ready to face the original owner's family.

"That's right. It's just a pity. I also want to see what the goddess of Chu looks like. According to rumors, the goddess is as beautiful as a fairy. I don't know if it is true."

After Lin Xuan'er said that, she couldn't help but glance at Chu Nanli.

She felt that the goddess of Chu's beauty might just be in vain. After all, few outsiders had seen the goddess' appearance.

But the Chu Nanli in front of her was the most beautiful person she had ever seen in her life.

"actually, I……"

Chu Nanli coughed slightly, intentionally wanting to reveal something to Lin Xuan'er first.

Lest the matter really spread by then, Lin Xuan'er would be the last to know.

But as soon as she started, the little guy in the cradle started making noise again.

When Lin Xuan'er heard the sound, she was even more anxious than she was, and stood up and walked over.

Seeing this, Chu Nanli didn't know how to speak when the words came to her lips.

Lin Xuan'er stayed with her and the child until the sun set in the west.

Neither of them paid attention to the rumors from the outside world, so naturally they didn't know that there was quite a commotion outside.

The people sent by Lu Xinyue only dared to watch from a distance outside the Regent's Palace, so it was not clear whether Chu Nanli was driven away or left on his own initiative.

However, Chu Nanli is not in the Regent's Palace now, which is naturally a good thing for her.

She stared at the back of the carriage under the night sky, her eyes a little more eager.

Without the help of the maid, she got off the carriage and followed Ye Jiuxiao eagerly.

The temple the Queen Mother ordered to go to is within the capital.

Because today is not a special day, the incense in the temple is not very prosperous, and not many people come to offer incense. Ye Jiuxiao had already climbed the stairs in front of the temple hall, with no intention of waiting for her.

"Your Majesty, please wait. The Queen Mother said that there are many rules for enshrining those scriptures. If you don't care about these, I'm afraid you will offend the Bodhisattva."

Lu Xinyue deliberately showed her closeness to him in front of outsiders. She trotted forward and even wanted to reach out and grab his sleeve.

She just made a move, and Ye Jiuxiao avoided her extended hand as if there were eyes on his back.

Not only that, he also stopped and turned his head to look at her coldly.

"Since you insist on asking for trouble, I will help you!"

Before Lu Xinyue understood what he meant, she felt a pain in her knees, and then she fell backwards uncontrollably.

She had climbed more than a dozen steps. If she fell from this height, her face might be ruined!

Lu Xinyue hurriedly stretched out her hand towards Ye Jiuxiao, expecting him to hold her.

Compared with the pain that was about to come, Ye Jiuxiao's cold eyes actually made her more afraid.

"The princess!"

The person serving Lu Xinyue was a step late, and when she came over, she had already fallen heavily to the ground.

Her painful look did not even let Ye Jiuxiao stay for a second longer.

"Since something went wrong like this, there must be no need to enshrine the scriptures."

He didn't even arrange for anyone to check on Lu Xinyue's condition, so he left directly.

"Princess! Princess, are you okay?"

Lu Xinyue's face was full of pain, but she couldn't see where she was injured, and the people serving her didn't dare to touch her casually.

The looks in the eyes of passers-by on Lu Xinyue made her feel a mixture of embarrassment and pain, and she also felt a little more hatred for Ye Jiuxiao in her heart.

How could Ye Jiuxiao do this!

She even suspected that he just wanted her life!

"What are you still doing? Why don't you go find a doctor for me!"

"If something happens to my leg, when I go back, I will let my father take care of you!"

Lu Xinyue was upset and could only vent her anger on the maids.

They did not dare to offend Lu Xinyue, so they had to carry her into the carriage in a hurry.

When no one else could see her, Lu Xinyue revealed her ferocious face and looked at the maid next to her fiercely.

"Have you paid close attention to what just happened?"

Her personal maid said timidly: "This servant saw it. The regent just now clearly did it on purpose..."

In the situation just now, Ye Jiuxiao's mere failure to save anyone was enough to attract criticism from outsiders.

Besides, Ye Jiuxiao left without saying a word. Even if this matter came to the Queen Mother, they would be the ones to take charge.

"Don't say that!"

Lu Xinyue pinched her palm tightly, and after a while, she continued to speak after her mood calmed down a little.

"At that time, it will be said to the outside world that I fell down accidentally. The prince was too far away from me at the time and did not have time to catch me. Do you understand?"

She knew very well that she could indeed say that Ye Jiuxiao deliberately caused her to fall.

You can even tell everything you saw today without hesitation.

But this would definitely displease the Queen Mother.

Then wouldn't all her efforts these days have been in vain!
