Reborn, I was pursued by the Prince of the Broken Sleeves

In the study of Prince Qi's mansion, Prince Qi Ye Mo, dressed in a black robe, sat at the desk. He threw the last memorial he had reviewed onto the table and rubbed his temples with his hand.

On the mountain road of Baiyun Temple, the assassination attempt on him accidentally captured Mo Daoxi, the ninth prince of Huanyue Kingdom.

During the years he fled from Huanyue Kingdom, he gathered a group of supporters around him.

They tried to become famous in Huanyue Kingdom by assassinating him, and use this as an opportunity to win the support of more people, trying to shake the foundation of the current Huanyue Kingdom and seize power.

Ever since Mo Daoxi was captured, those people have been ready to make a move and have been planning to rescue him.

These days, there are more memorials coming from all directions.

As he was rubbing his temple, his eyes fell on the white porcelain bottle beside him.

The image of the girl's fair and delicate face flashed through his mind. She was lying on his knees with her little rosy face, looking cute.

The corners of his lips couldn't help but rise, he reached out and took the white porcelain bottle, holding it in his palm.

Her slender fingertips gently stroked the white porcelain bottle, and she murmured, "What is she doing now?"

Zhui Feng, who was waiting quietly beside him, noticed his master's abnormality and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, there is only one pill left in the white porcelain bottle."

"Don't worry, Your Highness!" Zhuiyun continued to report: "Zhuifeng has gone to the Su Mansion to get medicine."

The person who had been staring at the white porcelain bottle in a daze frowned and said, "Zhuifeng is quite proactive in his work."

It sounds like a compliment, but it doesn't feel right.

Zhuifeng didn't understand what was going on and didn't dare to say more.

Ye Mo glanced at him and said, "Medicine is three parts poison. Your Highness's health is worrying. I need to check your pulse before you can continue to take the medicine."

He suddenly stood up and walked out with big strides.

Zhuiyun: “…”

Why is Your Highness starting to forget things?

Miss Su said that these medicines need to be taken for ten consecutive days before they can be changed.

The carriage set out from Prince Qi's Mansion and headed towards the Su Mansion. Halfway there, the curtain was lifted. "Zhuiyun, go to Yapinxuan on West Street and buy two packs of peach blossom cakes... for the consultation fee."

Zhuiyun: “…”

The carriage turned from West Street to Main Street. Ye Mo came out of Yupinxuan, weighing the bag of peach blossom pastries in his hand. Thinking of the little greedy cat's eyes shining when he saw it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

"Your Highness..." Zhuifeng rode forward from a distance and whispered, "Miss Su is at the Jinli Embroidery Shop..."

The more Zhuifeng spoke, the uglier Ye Mo's expression became.

"Hurry, go to Jinli Embroidery Shop."

"Tell the Dali Temple Minister to leave immediately."

……

In the hall of Jinli Embroidery Shop, everyone's eyes fell on the person being questioned by His Royal Highness Prince Jin.

The girl bowed and said softly, "Your Highness, I came here with my mother to buy jewelry, but I was framed and extorted. Please help me."

"You bullshit!"

"You bullshit!"

Xueying and Xiao Tang denied it in unison.

"I came here on the orders of the young lady to pick up the jewelry she ordered. However, I was detained in the hall for a short while and was captured for no reason. I couldn't escape." Xueying explained aggrievedly.

"Your Highness..."

Xiao Tang also bowed and said, "When I handed the Red Plum Proud Snow Hairpin to this lady, she accidentally dropped it and someone stepped on it, breaking it. She should have compensated for it, but this lady refused to give in and insisted on causing trouble."

The two of them worked together in perfect harmony, putting all the blame on Su Manman.

Ye Zhi looked at her with complicated eyes.

At this moment, footsteps were heard at the door, and a fairy-like girl walked in.

The soft black hair was lightly tied into a bun, with a golden hairpin inserted, sparkling with pearls, like stars falling in the dark clouds.

As she walked, the hem of her clothes swayed in the wind, and the gorgeous peony flowers on her cuffs bloomed brightly.

As she walked lightly, the jade pendant on her waist jingled, like the sound of heavenly music.

The real person, Bai Huanyi, appeared.

"It's Miss Su!"

She stood close to Ye Zhi in an intimate manner, looking over with a pair of bright autumn eyes. "Miss Su, you've had a hard time in the mansion. Ten thousand taels of silver must be a lot of money for you. It's understandable that you can't come up with it right now..."

Her eyes fell on Xueying, "My maid is so innocent, why do you have to bully her?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the contemptuous eyes of the people around her fell on Su Manman fiercely.

In her previous life, she would have lowered her head in shame and accepted the punishment.

Because she knew in her heart that if she stood with Bai Huanyi, Ye Zhi would never choose her.

After all, at the beginning, she was the one kneeling in front of him, begging him to give her a roof over her head.

How can one live with self-respect if he lives a life that is humiliating and miserable?

But today is different.

She relies on herself for everything.

She was unwilling to compromise any longer.

"Miss Bai, she and her companions framed me first, then bullied me. I was just protecting myself."

The girl looked normal, with a pair of watery eyes, clear and bright, without a trace of panic.

"You..." Bai Huanyi wanted to retort, but Ye Zhi's gentle voice sounded at the right moment, "It's just a hairpin, there's no need to make such a big fuss."

His clear eyes met hers, "Miss Su once helped me out, so I will pay for the hairpin."

He had a gentle expression and a pleasant voice. With just a few words, he easily resolved a major conflict that was about to break out.

Every lady present looked at him with a little more respect and admiration in their eyes.

Only Su Manman's heart grew colder and colder.

Just like in her previous life, Bai Huanyi would use vicious means to destroy the reputation and innocence of any woman who tried to get close to Prince Jin or any woman who Prince Jin paid the slightest attention to. She would torture the woman and cause her to die in pain.

Over the years, she has taken countless lives.

At this moment, her target was her.

After the first time, there will be a second time, a third time... until, just like in the previous life, she no longer poses a threat to her.

In this life, she will never give in easily again.

The funny thing is that the man in front of her has been protecting her.

Did he think that the matter would be settled if he paid the silver as compensation?

No.

Bai Huanyi will only get worse.

And what about her?

His reputation as a willful and arrogant person who destroyed things without compensation and bullied people at will would spread throughout the capital within an hour.

From now on, how should she gain people's trust and how should she stand in front of others?

Didn’t Bai Huanyi achieve the purpose of setting up such a careful plan?

"I don't want to!"

The morning sunlight shone through the cracks in the window and fell on the girl's black hair. The broken light and shadow danced above her head, giving it a layer of golden and hazy luster.

"What did you say?" Ye Zhi thought he didn't hear clearly.

"I don't want to!" The girl replied calmly, word by word, "It's not my fault, I don't want to take responsibility."

She had a clear voice and a neither arrogant nor humble attitude.

She looked like a well-behaved girl, but she was merciless in her rebuttal.

Ye Zhi looked puzzled, his handsome brows furrowed, "If this gets out of hand, you'll suffer."

Is this a friendly reminder?

Su Manman raised a bitter smile at the corner of her lips and bowed slightly, "Your Highness, please report to the authorities."

"You..." Her tough attitude made him feel uncomfortable.

The people around were so frightened that they dared not breathe.

Unexpectedly, this country girl was such a stubborn ass. Even though His Royal Highness Prince Jin protected her and gave her a way out, she refused to obey.
