Chapter 922: Chapter 921: It Turns Out, Nothing Has Changed

Chu Qianli knew that getting the lofty Prince Yexuan to speak so humbly was no easy task.

She knew, she really knew.

"If I said that the Medicine Man Corps might be related to your mother, what then?"

"It has nothing to do with her!"

Prince Yexuan’s face instantly turned cold and stern.

"Lili, although she may not have behaved in a way that pleases everyone or may not have been very kind, the Medicine Man Corps not only harmed the imperial family but also brought disaster to the people. My mother would never do such things!"

Chu Qianli remained silent.

Because, indeed, she only had suspicions in her heart and indeed, she had no evidence.

She also believed that Yexuan had not failed to investigate nor had he failed to consider it.

But, that was his birth mother.

He trusted his birth mother unconditionally.

Just as she could unconditionally trust Long Xiyue.

Everybody was the same.

"I was just speaking carelessly; Prince, you need not take it to heart."

"Lili!"

Seeing the distant look in her eyes, Yexuan still stepped forward, wanting to take her hand.

But this time, Chu Qianli stepped back, avoiding him.

"Prince, there are too many unresolved issues between us; I cannot be with you without reservations in the immediate future."

In fact, these issues might really be insoluble.

She wanted to investigate his mother, and his mother, wanted her dead.

A deadlock.

Not because of the identity of Consort Jin, but because she was his birth mother.

Truly a deadlock.

"Lili, as long as we don’t think about it..."

"If we don’t think about it, do the problems really cease to exist?" It’s nothing more than self-deception!

"Please leave."

She turned her face away, no longer looking at him.

"Are you still pushing me away, Prince?"

"Prince, it’s not that I want to push you away, it’s that there really are too many issues between us, why do you still not understand?"

If we cannot be united at heart, what’s the point of being together?

She and Hua Rong, at least for now, cannot truly stand together.

If they were together, how would he choose sides as a husband and a son?

"All I can say is that my mother’s death may also be related to the Medicine Man Corps; moreover, the existence of the Medicine Man Corps is a disaster to the people."

The Medicine Man Corps had appeared not only in Beiming Country but also in Longteng.

The person behind the Medicine Man Corps wanted not just Beiming but Longteng as well.

As the Empress of Longteng, she would not allow such a force to continue growing.

"No matter who’s behind the Medicine Man Corps, as long as I find out, I will show no mercy."

Chu Qianli took a step forward and walked to the edge of the eaves.

She didn’t look back at him.

Her voice was very cold, like the wind tonight.

"If it really has something to do with your mother, I also will not let her off!"

She leaped down and hurried towards Feng Dingchu.

Soon, her petite figure merged with the children.

Prince Yexuan stood against the wind, quietly watching her.

The restlessness in his heart gradually calmed down.

He understood much, but it was only when he saw the note she sent that he got too excited.

After the excitement, he realized that nothing had changed because of a single note.

The way forward, he might not even know how to proceed.

All he wanted was to have his dead woman by his side; no matter the path, as long as she was there, he could continue.

But he forgot that the dead woman also had her own path to follow.

After all, she could not belong entirely to him.
