Chapter 242: Her Counterattack, Stunning!
ithout a trace, leaving the investigation at an impasse. 。The Emperor suspected that someone was colluding with the Salt Gang and deliberately set up such a scheme, so he secretly sent Qian Tingxuan...As soon as Xiao Yu Ge sat down, the old doctor took her pulse and casually asked, "Miss, are you feeling unwell somewhere"
"Doctor, I want to ask..." Xiao Yuge bit her lip. To be honest, it was really hard to say this.
"Little girl, there's no need to be shy in front of the doctor. Speak freely about whatever is troubling you. The sooner we address the problem, the better." The old doctor smiled faintly, accustomed to this kind of situation.
Xiao Yu Ge rubbed her head, coughed lightly, and instinctively lowered her voice: "Doctor, I want to ask, at my age, I've never had a period before. Is this normal Is there something wrong with my body"
"Shouldn't the young lady be of marriageable age by now" the old man asked again.
"Well, I just came of age," Xiao Yu Ge nodded.
“A girl of twelve or thirteen should have started her period. The young lady is fifteen and has not yet come of age, which is indeed rare, but not unheard of! There’s no need for the young lady to worry. The old man just took your pulse, and your body is healthy. Perhaps it's just a special constitution. Don't worry too much, just let nature take its course.”
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's song, he let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, doctor!"
"Hmm." The old man stroked his beard and nodded.
After leaving the doctor's office, Xiao Yuge swept away the gloom from earlier and took Qing Luo's hand: "Qing Luo, come on, I'll take you to Zhangji Roast Duck!" She had been worried about whether something was wrong with her body. Since nothing was wrong, she should eat, drink, and enjoy herself!
Jian Tingxuan watched their departing figures, his brows furrowed. He had listened intently to Xiao Yuge and the old man's conversation just now, although it was Ge'er's private matter, he couldn't help but feel suspicious. He remembered that Ge'er said on the day she volunteered at the orphanage and was returning to the city, he smelled blood on her body. However, Feng Yanniang hinted that it was Ge'er's menstrual period. But Ge'er just now clearly said she had never had her period. It seemed that they both lied that day.
Remembering that the songbird had suffered such grievous internal injuries, for some reason his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be... It seemed like he should go and prove something.
"Mingyang!"
"Grandpa!"
"Go check something..."
On a pleasure boat.
"Fu'er!" Ning Feng stepped inside and saw Xiao Yu Fu, her face flushed from drinking.
"Wind brother, how did you come" Xiao Yufu lifted her heavy eyelids and glanced at Ning Feng, then groped for a glass of wine and handed it to him. "You're here to drink with me, aren't you"
"Young Master Ning, it's not that I have a choice. I had to ask you for help. Please persuade the County Princess." An Ling was anxious beside her.
"Fú'er, be mindful of your current status. How can you come to such a place to drink What if someone sees you If word reaches the Emperor, what then" Níngfēng still felt pity for Xiāoyǔ Fú in his heart.
Well, after all, how can one just let go of someone they've admired since childhood
"Feng Gege, I used to really like being the County Princess, but now, I really hate this identity." Xiao Yufu weakly raised her arms and said with unwillingness, "Before, Si Chen loved me so much. He said that no matter what my status was, he would always love me. But, he lied. After I became the County Princess, he fell in love with Xiao Yu Ge, and even said he wanted to marry me only because I was a woman of good fortune..."
"Fu'er, you're drunk. I'll take you back." Ning Feng knew he couldn't let her continue like this, otherwise, if someone found out, it would be trouble.
"I'm not going back!" Xiao Yufu pushed him away, her voice trembling with anger. "My father, my mother, my brother, your hearts are all filled with Ge'er! You all think she's pitiful being alone, but who has ever thought of me She stole fifteen years of my life, and have any of you ever considered that For over a decade, I felt like an outsider, desperately trying to please everyone around me for fear they would abandon me. You pity her, why don't you pity me"
"Fu'er, let's talk about it when we get back." Ning Feng knew that if she continued to make a fuss, things would truly become complicated.
"I don't want to!" Xiao Yufu poured another glass of wine for herself, then staggered to her feet, waving her hands: "I don't want to be a county princess at all, I just want to go back to when Si Chen loved me..." Having a noble status, but losing the one she loved, her heart was like being cut by a knife.
"Fei'er!" Ning Feng was afraid she would fall, so he hurried forward to help her. Unexpectedly, her foot twisted and she fell into his arms.
"Someone reported that there are rebels plotting here! Surround this place immediately, and search every single ship!" Suddenly, a group of soldiers burst in, but what they saw was: Prince Ning and Princess Guoan hugging each other dearly.
"Presumptuous!" Ning Feng, regaining his composure, immediately pushed Xiao Yu Fu into An Ling's arms, while he himself angrily rebuked the leader.
"Your Highness, please calm your anger. We are only following orders!" The leader quickly glanced inside the pleasure boat, making sure there was no one suspicious, then led his men away.
So many eyes had seen it, Ning Sizhe and Guo An County Princess were actually having a private meeting on the pleasure boat!
Everyone knows that Princess Guonang is now betrothed to the Crown Prince. Now she's secretly meeting with Young Master Ning here behind the Crown Prince's back. If this gets to the Emperor, wouldn't she be in big trouble
Ning Feng realized at this moment that he might have fallen into a trap set by someone with ill intentions. In desperation, he ordered An Ling to bring Xiao Yu Fu back to the Xiang Mansion immediately, and he would handle the rest himself. But with so many people and so many pairs of eyes watching, how could he silence the rumors
Soon, the news spread throughout the capital!
"Disobedient daughter! Look at the mess you've made!" Xiao Zhan was so angry his face turned red, he almost fainted from rage.
"Father, things are not as you heard them..." Xiao Yufu knelt there, crying and explaining.
"You said to me, what use are you Now everyone outside is saying, the Princess Guonan met with Prince Ning privately. If it weren't for you being the favored daughter of destiny, you would be marrying into the Ning Mansion right now." Xiao Zhan was so angry that his chest ached.
"Father, things aren't what they seem..." Xiao Yu Fu was speechless after this incident.
"What on earth were you doing A young, unmarried woman like you, getting drunk in such a place, or even worse, with a man... how could you possibly behave this way" Xiao Zhan's eyes burned with anger.
"Master, things have come to this. Getting angry won't help. Please don't strain yourself further." The wife beside him spoke softly, trying to soothe him. She looked at her daughter with disappointment, shaking her head.
Xiao Zhan then turned his anger onto his wife: "You too, you haven't disciplined your daughter properly. Letting her run around outside all day, showing off, is what led to this disaster!"
"Me!" The lady was also speechless for a moment.ed it towards his face."Ah!" Suddenly, Fang Tianjing cried out in pain, his body feeling like it was being devoured by ants. He couldn't tell exactly where the pain was coming from, but he felt agony...
