Palace.

Shen Qionghua was sent back to her residence by the palace servants. As soon as Shaoyao saw her, she rushed over to her and tears couldn't stop falling.

"Miss, you scared this slave to death."

Shaoyao's eyes were red and bloodshot, and it was obvious that she had not slept all night.

"Okay, Shaoyao, look, I'm fine, aren't I?"

As he spoke, Shen Qionghua jumped twice to confirm his words.

But it did not comfort Shaoyao. She choked and said, "Next time, no matter where you go, I will follow you."

God knows how shocked and scared she was when she heard the news that the young lady fell off the cliff.

Fortunately, God blessed the young lady and allowed her to return safely, otherwise she would not know how to explain to the lady and the young master.

"Okay, okay, stop crying. Hurry up and prepare some water. I want to take a shower and change clothes." Shen Qionghua comforted Shen Qionghua and quickly changed the subject.

Having not bathed for a whole day and night, and having stayed in the enclosure for such a long time, Shen Qionghua felt that she was about to be marinated.

Shaoyao wiped away the tears from her eyes when she heard this.

"I will prepare it right away."

When Shen Qionghua soaked in the bathtub, feeling the rising heat and the warmth wrapping her cold hands and feet, she felt like she was alive again. Turning around, she saw Shaoyao crying as she looked at the wounds on her body.

She sighed helplessly.

No matter how careful she was, it was impossible for her to escape unscathed after falling from such a high cliff.

Apart from a large cut on her left arm, she had some scrapes and bruises all over her body.

The large patches of purple bruises on the fair and delicate skin like pearls looked particularly terrifying, as if the skin had been beaten and scolded.

Shaoyao was so heartbroken that she burst into tears.

The young lady has been raised in the palm of her hand by the master and mistress since she was a child, and is treated like a treasure. She has never suffered such a hardship.

After finally finishing my bath and getting dressed, Princess Pingning arrived.

Luo Xiyao said with a guilty look on her face: "Qionghua, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

If she had not been too conceited and trusted her horse too much, Qionghua would not have suffered this disaster.

Shen Qionghua shook her head and said, "Don't worry about it. This matter has nothing to do with you."

Shen Qionghua knew very well that Xie Qian'an had probably planned to attack her after failing to win the first place.

It just so happened that she had a good relationship with Princess Pingning and thought it was very likely that Princess Pingning would lend her her horse, so she tampered with Princess Pingning's horse.

Even if she did not choose Princess Pingning's horse, Prince Rui probably had other ways.

Instead, it was Princess Pingning who was dragged down by her and suffered an unexpected disaster.

Seeing Shen Qionghua being so reasonable, Luo Xiyao felt even more guilty.

"And Fu Chen, he couldn't come here, so he asked me to apologize to you for not saving you at that time."

At that time, the two horses went crazy at the same time. Fu Chen had always been fond of Princess Pingning, and she and Fu Chen had only met a few times. It was reasonable for Fu Chen to save Princess Pingning first. How could Shen Qionghua be angry about this?

She smiled and said, "You and Fu Chen don't have to worry about this. He ran towards you out of instinct, and he didn't mean to leave you in danger. Why should he apologize?"

Luo Xiyao secretly observed Shen Qionghua's expression, and seeing that she was really not angry, she smiled.

She finally made a friend whose temperament and personality were exactly what she wanted. Luo Xiyao was afraid that this would create a rift between them.

"I hope you're not angry."

"How could I be angry? If you hadn't found His Royal Highness Prince Rui and told him about this, I would have become food for the bear." Shen Qionghua said.

Luo Xiyao's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she hurriedly asked Shen Qionghua what was going on.

Shen Qionghua then told Xie Nanyuan about encountering a brown bear and how he killed it.

After saying that, seeing Luo Xiyao's worried look, he asked in surprise: "You don't know?"

Luo Xiyao shook her head. As soon as she heard that Shen Qionghua had returned, she rushed over and didn't care about Xie Nanyuan at all.

At this moment, when she heard that Xie Nanyuan was seriously injured, she became restless.

My aunt only has this one son. If he gets seriously injured, her father will skin her alive. After all, it was she who insisted on taking Qionghua to the hunting ground.

"Qionghua, take a rest first. I'll come see you tomorrow."

Shen Qionghua nodded, and Luo Xiyao got up and left. After leaving the yard, she hurried to Zhaoyang Palace.

As soon as she left, Shen Qionghua was thinking of going back to the couch to catch up on some sleep when Shaoyao said Zhou Lingyi was here.

Shen Qionghua's expression flashed, and he said, "Please come in."

Zhou Lingyi walked in hurriedly and rushed to Shen Qionghua as soon as he entered, his face full of anxiety and worry.

"Cousin, are you okay? I heard from His Royal Highness Prince An that you fell off a cliff, and I was so worried I couldn't sleep all night."

As Zhou Lingyi spoke, he showed Shen Qionghua his red eyes.

The corner of Shen Qionghua's mouth twitched. Was he so worried that he couldn't sleep all night?

It seems she was so happy that she couldn't sleep all night!

"My cousin is very well-informed." Shen Qionghua said lightly.

Zhou Lingyi froze as he wiped the corners of his eyes with his handkerchief. He then tugged at Shen Qionghua's sleeve and said, "Prince An came looking for me yesterday. He said he ran into my cousin in the enclosure."

"My cousin's horse went crazy, and he tried to rescue it, but he ended up falling off the cliff with the horse."

"I was afraid my mother would worry, so I didn't dare tell her."

"I can only stand guard in fear. His Highness said he has sent out all his forces to search for my cousin and will inform me as soon as he finds her."

At this point, Zhou Lingyi seemed a little puzzled and asked, "But I heard that my cousin came back early this morning with Prince Rui and his entourage."

"Cousin, why are you with King Rui?"

Shen Qionghua raised her eyebrows when she heard that. It turned out that he was waiting for her here.

She knew that she couldn't hide this matter from Xie Qian'an, and she didn't want to hide it from him.

She had already thought of it on the way back, to make Xie Qian'an think that she had an intersection with King Rui because of this matter, so that if the other party wanted to touch her again in the future, he would be more cautious.

Shen Qionghua's eyes rolled, and with a look of gratitude on her face, she said, "What a coincidence! After I fell off the cliff yesterday, I wanted to go back to the palace, but I lost my way as it was getting dark."

"After much difficulty finding a cave, I encountered a huge brown bear. I thought my life was in danger."

"It just so happened that His Royal Highness Prince Rui came into the enclosure to find me at the request of Princess Pingning and killed him. Otherwise, I would have been in great danger."

After hearing this, Zhou Lingyi's grip on the handkerchief unconsciously tightened, and the smile on his lips became very stiff. He said, "It's so dangerous. It seems that my cousin is blessed. My uncle must be blessing my cousin from heaven."

Bitch! How lucky!

Zhou Lingyi's fingertips were trembling with anger.

Originally, according to His Highness's plan, the horse went crazy and His Highness appeared to save it. With this life-saving grace, it would be difficult for this bitch to reject His Highness.

And to put it more seriously, the two of them riding on the same horse can be considered to have physical contact.

But who knew that by some mistake this bitch would fall off a cliff.

She was extremely happy at the time, thinking that God had a good heart and would let this bitch fall to her death.

In this way, she would not have to give up His Highness and could also take the Shen family's property into her pocket.

As for the other two people in the Shen family, she never took them seriously.

If Lin Wanru divorces Shen Qionghua, and her father likes her, he can play with her for a while and then hand her over to her mother for disposal.

She even thought about how to explain to Lin Wanru after finding the bitch's body.

Even if this bitch is still alive after falling off the cliff, she is confident that she can convince His Highness to kill her after his men find her and bring her back.

But no one expected that this bitch was so lucky that King Rui found her first.

In this way, all her plans fell through!
