Liuli Street is the most lively and prosperous street in Shengjing City. It is lined with shops and bustling with people.

Xie Qingli and Leng Shuang both changed into men's clothes and strolled around.

Leng Shuang was worried about being assassinated again, so she was on high alert all the way.

Xie Qingli was a little absent-minded. After burying the dog today, Shitou suddenly knelt in front of Chu Yuncang and asked Chu Yuncang to accept him. He said that he wanted to learn skills and avenge the dog.

Another person who changed the trajectory of fate, Xie Qingli couldn't help but sigh.

She looked up and around, and suddenly realized that the green tiles, red walls, flying eaves and pointed corners of Liuli Street had a unique charm.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way..."

Suddenly, people on the street came from far away, screaming and hiding to the sides in panic.

Leng Shuang didn't know what was going on. Her whole body was tense, and she pulled Xie Qingli to the side of the road with swift movements.

Xie Qingli leaned over and looked into the distance. A magnificent carriage was rushing across the street. The horse seemed to be crazy. The driver was frantically tightening the reins, but the horse became even more manic after being tightened.

Three women scrambled out of the carriage in panic, each clutching the sides to steady themselves. The two women on the left and right, one in purple and one in green, were dressed like maids. The woman in the middle was dressed in a gorgeous yellow gown, her hair covered in pearls and jade, exuding an air of nobility.

The situation was critical, but the expressions on their faces were very different. The purple-shirted maid was terrified and desperately shouted for help to the people around her. The green-shirted maid had a hint of anxiety on her face, her lips tightly pursed, and her eyes nervously looked towards the roadside.

Xie Qingli was a little confused. The expressions of the two maids were so different. Could it be due to their personalities?

Leng Shuang suddenly tugged at Xie Qingli's sleeve, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "Miss, the man in the alley next to us is very suspicious."

Xie Qingli quickly turned around and saw a young man in his early twenties hiding at the entrance of the alley, looking towards the carriage. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and a golden crown on his head, his face full of nervousness and excitement, and he didn't look like an ordinary passerby watching the excitement at all.

In a moment, the carriage was right in front of her. Saving people was the most important thing. Xie Qingli didn't have time to think about it. She quickly turned around and was on full alert.

For some reason, the horse suddenly raised its front hooves high, neighed, and started swinging its legs wildly.

The maid in green shouted loudly: "Princess, it's dangerous, get off the carriage quickly!" After she shouted, she quickly pulled the woman in the middle to her side and threw her out of the carriage.

The man at the entrance of the alley heard the sound and rushed out of the alley at high speed, heading straight for the woman who fell off the carriage.

In an instant, Xie Qingli understood everything. It turned out to be a premeditated heroic rescue of a damsel in distress.

With lightning speed, she leaped up and caught the falling woman. She then quickly drew the Flowing Clouds and Flying Moon whip from her waist, entangled it around the horse's front hooves, and with a powerful thrashing, the horse fell straight to the ground, neighing in pain. The carriage slid forward a few meters due to inertia before finally coming to a stop.

The purple-shirted maid was thrown from the carriage and fell to the ground, motionless. The green-shirted maid luckily slid off the carriage and managed to steady herself when she landed, thus escaping the disaster. The coachman also jumped out of the carriage in time and sat down on the side of the road, seemingly unharmed.

The man who originally planned to be a hero and save the beauty missed her when he ran to pick her up, lost his balance and fell to the ground.

All this happened in a flash. Now that the dust had settled, Xie Qingli let go of the woman in his arms.

Before the stunned crowd could react, the man was the first to get up. His gorgeous clothes were rubbed with several tears, his golden crown was crooked, his face was covered with dirt, and he looked extremely miserable.

He glared at Xie Qingli, his face flushed the color of liver. How dare this pretty boy ruin his plans! He shouted sternly, "You daring villain, how dare you flirt with the princess in the street? Do you know your crime?"

The princess's expression turned stern, and she said in a cold voice, "Prince Liang, please stop confusing right and wrong! The people present here can all testify that just now my carriage suddenly went berserk, and I was in imminent danger. It was this young master who sacrificed his life to save me."

"Yes, Princess is right, I can testify to that!" The onlookers spoke up one after another.

Leng Shuang leaned close to Xie Qingli's ear and whispered, "Miss, that is Princess Fu'an, the Crown Prince's younger sister." She paused slightly and said hesitantly, "That Prince Liang should be Liang Yanqi, the eldest son of the Guangping Marquis family."

Xie Qingli was stunned. It turned out that this person was Princess Fu'an!

Seeing that Princess Fu'an actually spoke up for this pretty boy, Prince Liang hated her along with her. He said coldly, "Your Highness, this lowly person just hugged you and touched you. Where does this put the dignity of the royal family and your reputation? Are you sure you want to speak up for him?"

At this moment, the guards from the princess's mansion finally came running over, breathless. Before they could figure out what was going on, Liang Yanqi pointed at Xie Qingli and said, "This lowly person is flirting with the princess and insulting the royal family!"

The guards all looked at Princess Fu'an.

Princess Fu'an's face turned pale. She looked at the crowd watching the excitement and said loudly, "As a princess of the royal family, I will never do anything that confuses right and wrong or is ungrateful."

She paused slightly, a trace of struggle flashing in her eyes: "As a woman, this young man risked his life to save me in a desperate situation, so why should I marry him?"

Liang Yanqi widened his eyes in shock. Is Princess Fu'an crazy?

Seeing that the two were talking more and more outrageously, Xie Qingli quickly explained, "Your Highness, and this persimmon, I am a woman. If a woman hugs another woman, it doesn't count as damaging her reputation or insulting the royal family, right?" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, like a flowing spring. It was indeed a woman's voice.

Liang Yanqi frowned and narrowed his eyes, suspecting there was something wrong with his ears. He didn't believe that a woman could have such skills.

Princess Fu'an's face blossomed with a brilliant smile. She grabbed Xie Qingli's hand and said in surprise, "You are actually a woman. Thank you so much for what I did just now!"

Xie Qingli shook her head slightly and said softly, "It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning!" She looked at the purple-robed maid lying on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, your maid is seriously injured. Saving her is the most important thing!"

Princess Fu'an then remembered the maid lying on the ground. She anxiously said to the guards, "Quick, go get the imperial physician!"

Xie Qingli had already walked over to the purple-robed maid and checked her breath. It was weak, perhaps she had hit her head. She was a little anxious and whispered, "Princess, this is an emergency. Why don't we ask a doctor from the nearby clinic to come over?"

She didn't want to expose her medical skills in public and regretted not wearing a mask today.

Princess Fu'an suddenly realized what was going on and ordered her guards, "Go get the doctor quickly."

Xie Qingli picked up the horse whip that had fallen to the ground. There were many embroidery needles stuck on it. She sniffed it gently and it smelled like medicine. This was the reason why the horse went crazy.

She turned to look at the groom, who was staring at Xie Qingli nervously. The green-shirted maid quietly moved behind Xie Qingli and attacked her when she was not prepared...
