The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Ever since Xu Zhixia learned that her fiancé's family had their house ransacked, she's been so frightened that she's almost in a trance.

Xu's mother walked into the main house of her daughter's courtyard in a dark blue dress. Seeing her decadent appearance, she couldn't bear to look at her.

"Xia'er, why do you torture yourself like this?"

Xu Zhixia looked up when she heard her mother's voice: "Mom, why are you here?"

"What are you talking about, kid? Your mother is worried about you."

She was very dissatisfied with her daughter's disappointment.

"Mother, do you have something to say to your daughter?"

"Yes, your father asked me to ask you, what do you think about the confiscation of the Jiang family's property?" He hoped that this daughter would not drag down their entire family.

Xu Zhixia was stunned for a moment: "How do you see it? Mother, I don't know either."

They were obviously going to get married soon, but why did God play such a joke on her?

Xu's mother was surprised and wanted to slap her to wake her up.

"At this point, the only way to save the family is to cancel the engagement. You can't be confused."

Xu Zhixia was shocked: "But mother, we are getting married soon."

"But you haven't gotten married yet, so there's still time for everything."

When Xu Zhixia appeared in the Ministry of Justice prison, she was a little afraid to walk in.

Yanyu felt distressed when looking at her young lady. How could things suddenly turn out like this?

"Miss, let's go in." It cost a lot of money to come in and take care of everything.

Xu Zhixia thought of the threats from her parents and walked in. They followed the jailer all the way to a cell.

Jiang Ruofan, who had long lost the demeanor of a young master from an aristocratic family, showed joy the moment he raised his eyes and saw his fiancée.

"Zhixia, you're here." She finally came.

Xu Zhixia lowered her head slightly, she was a little reluctant to look into the other person's eyes.

"We..." They had been an unmarried couple for more than ten years, and she really couldn't bring herself to say such cruel words.

Jiang Ruofan suddenly didn't dare to breathe loudly, as if he had a premonition of something.

"What do you want to say?" He began to get scared and even had the thought of escaping.

Yanyu looked at her young lady anxiously: "Miss, please tell me quickly, this is related to your happiness for the rest of your life."

Hearing the maid's words, Jiang Ruofan's heart skipped a beat.

Xu Zhixia plucked up her courage and spoke with her eyes closed.

"Let's... forget it." She felt that she was too cruel.

Jiang Ruofan seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit, and he looked up in disbelief.

"What did you say?" He was afraid that he had heard it wrongly.

"I say... let's cancel our engagement." Two lines of tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She was very painful after saying this, but at the same time, she felt a little relieved in her heart.

Jiang Ruofan looked at her in disbelief, then understood and felt relieved.

"Are you sure?" The Xu family had given up on them before their family was completely convicted.

Xu Zhixia pursed her lips in pain and nodded: "Yes, I beg you to let me go."

Jiang Ruofan was silent. Although he had a premonition in his heart, his heart still ached when he heard it with his own ears.

He had waited for the person in front of him for four years. Now he is twenty years old. He did not expect that such a misfortune would befall him and they would end up as strangers.

Xu Zhixia thought he was unwilling and became anxious.

"Please let me go for the sake of our years of friendship." If she did not agree to cancel the engagement, her parents would not want her.

Yan Yu was anxious and began to persuade him earnestly: "Master Jiang, please let our young lady go for the sake of our friendship."

Jiang Ruofan felt extremely aggrieved at the moment. He had done nothing wrong, yet it seemed as if he had done something excessive.

Xu Zhixia knelt down in front of her and said, "I beg you, please let me go. I will work like a slave to repay you in my next life."

Jiang Ruofan suddenly smiled: "No need, bring me the marriage certificate."

Xu Zhixia looked up with tears in her eyes and was stunned. Yanyu hurriedly took out the marriage certificate.

Jiang Ruofan said with a sad heart: "The marriage certificate is in the mansion, see if you can find a way to take it away, as for the rest, I really can't help you at the moment."

Xu Zhixia thanked him: "Thank you!"

Jiang Ruofan turned around, tears falling from the corners of his eyes, as if all his strength had been drained away.

"Go now. We have nothing to do with each other in the future. I hope you can find your ideal husband." He was not a heartless person. He just wanted her to have a safe and smooth life.

Xu Zhixia turned around and left with Yanyu, looking back every three steps, and finally left with a cruel heart.

After Jiang Ruofan could no longer hear any movement, he collapsed to the ground powerlessly.

Xu Zhixia, we are finished, really finished.

Jiang's mother was imprisoned in the women's prison and had no idea that her eldest son's engagement had been cancelled.

"Mother, what did our family do wrong? Why are we locked up here?" She knew the Ministry of Justice's prison; it was where serious criminals were held.

Mother Jiang didn't know how to answer her daughter: "Yun'er, mother doesn't believe your father will make a mistake."

Her master is a man of integrity and honesty, so how could he embezzle military pay or accept bribes?

At this time, crying sounds were heard from the cell. Everyone looked and saw that it was Jiang Ruoqin, the second daughter of the second branch of the Jiang family. She was ten years old this year and was as timid as a mouse.

"Mom, are we going to stay here forever?" She was only ten years old and didn't want to stay here forever.

Madam Jiang sighed, "Be good, Qin'er. You'll be fine after a good sleep."

Jiang Ruoqin obediently closed her eyes and fell asleep. The quiet old lady sighed as she watched this scene.

The eldest son finally got promoted to a third-rank official, but unexpectedly, he was in trouble and his whole family was thrown into prison. Her cloudy eyes were filled with death.

Shen Jiarou didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but she also heard the discussions of the palace people.

"I heard that the Jiang family was confiscated and imprisoned."

"Jiang family, which Jiang family?"

"It's the Jiang family who holds a third-rank official position. His eldest son is planning to marry his fiancée this month."

A eunuch interrupted: "I'm afraid the engagement will be annulled."

Shen Jiarou listened to it a few times, but didn't take it too seriously.

Nanny Wang stayed with her in the palace for two days, and Shen Jiarou was going to leave the palace and go back home today.

"Let's go back home."

Everyone bowed: "Yes, Princess."

After returning home, Shen Jiarou unexpectedly heard about the Jiang and Xu families again.

"This Jiang and Xu family's trouble is known to everyone in the city."

Nanny Wang agreed: "Who says it's not true? But it really is fate's trick."

Ruan Qingling and others looked at each other in bewilderment. Who said it wasn't true? Many people knew that the two engaged couples had a good relationship. The sudden change might have forced the lovers to go their separate ways.

Shen Jiarou had an average relationship with the Jiang family, so she gave up after hearing this and went to see Bai Yunsu.

"The princess is here!"

Bai Yunsu was making little shoes and she quickly stood up when she heard the announcement.

"I am here to see you, Princess Sister. I respectfully welcome you back home."

Shen Jiarou leaned over and helped her up affectionately: "No need to be polite, Sister Bai, get up quickly, baby, are you behaving well?"

Seeing that she cared about her, Bai Yunsu became even more gentle.

"It's pretty good. There are fetal movements now."

"Fetal movement? Let me listen." She put her head on Bai Yunsu's belly, put her ear close to her belly, and listened carefully, but to her disappointment, there was no movement after listening for a long time.
