Chapter 155 Chu Yan felt a chill all over her body

Having been humiliated by a woman time and time again, King Xiao naturally couldn't swallow this insult.

Especially since this woman is the Crown Princess, he used to live in the shadow of the Crown Prince, and now he has to live under the humiliation of the Crown Princess?

He was initially overjoyed that the Crown Prince was crippled, but the appearance of the Crown Princess disrupted all his plans.

All things considered, he and this Crown Princess had both old and new grudges, and he would get rid of her sooner or later.

Although he can't kill her directly now, he can teach her a lesson in secret. Anyway, she and the Crown Prince like to speak with evidence, so he will treat her in the same way.

A few more days passed, and on the fifteenth of each month, Chu Yan's mother, who was very devout to gods and Buddhas, would go to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings on the first and fifteenth of each month.

Chu Yan had been feeling rather down lately, so she decided to go along with the group and invited Su Liluo as well.

Because the Crown Prince's residence and the Prince Xiao's residence were on the same road, Chu Yan and Su Lilu rode in the same carriage, while Chu's mother and the others rode in the Chu family's carriage, planning to meet at the temple.

"Yan'er, how have you been at the Prince's residence these past few days? Has Prince Xiao made things difficult for you in any way?"

As soon as she got into the carriage, Su Liluo asked Chu Yan with concern.

"The prince has been very busy lately. I haven't had much contact with him while I'm at the manor. I'm almost asleep every time he comes back."

Chu Yan shook her head.

During this period, she and Prince Xiao did not quarrel, but they were not particularly close either; their relationship was as ordinary as could be.

"Are you really that busy? Has Chu Yun contacted you?"

Su Lilu asked in confusion, then continued to inquire.

She thought that even if the Crown Prince was very busy every day, the two of them still had a lot of time to talk and chat, so this Prince Xiao was obviously not normal.

"She didn't either. I went to see her a few times, though. She's been recovering from her injury and should be better soon."

When Chu Yun talked about the two of them, he was actually a little annoyed and confused.

These two people used to be very close to her, and she didn't want to doubt them, but the things that happened were like a knot in her heart, making her unable to stop thinking about them.

Su Liluo noticed Chu Yan's dilemma and didn't say anything more.

She knew that the truth hadn't been fully revealed yet, and Yan'er wouldn't believe everything.

When everything is exposed, Yan'er will be in pain again.

However, thinking of how tragic Yan'er's previous life was, she had no choice but to harden her heart and become the villain.

The carriage traveled for a while, leaving the prosperous city and heading towards the outskirts.

Most temples are built in lush forests and where streams flow, so you have to walk along a deserted mountain path.

Feeling bored, Su Liluo lifted the curtain of the carriage, wanting to look at the scenery outside the window.

Suddenly, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Why are there so many people dressed in rags here?

The people were filthy, but their eyes lit up when they saw Su Liluo.

"Look, there's a young lady from a wealthy family over there. Let's go and beg her to give us some food!"

As he spoke, a group of people rushed toward the carriage.

Su Liluo immediately had a bad feeling and quickly pulled down the curtain to urge the coachman, "Hurry up and drive away from here!"

But to everyone's surprise, the carriage suddenly lurched and crashed down heavily.

She and Chu Yan suddenly lost their balance and were about to fall out of the carriage and hit their heads.

Su Liluo immediately pulled Chu Yan into the space and knocked her unconscious with a palm strike.

Otherwise, Chu Yan would see him as a monster if she saw the space.

"Miss, Madam, please have mercy and give us some food!"

"There's food inside this carriage, everyone hurry up and grab some!"

"There's food here, everyone come quick!"

A large number of people rushed to Su Liluo's carriage and quickly surrounded the overturned carriage.

Su Liluo counted the distance, and after moving about a hundred steps, she finally brought Chu Yan out of the space.

Just as they came out, there was a thick tree nearby, so she led Chu Yan to land behind the tree.

How could the carriage of Prince Xiao's mansion have fallen over?

And then we just happened to run into this group of refugees?

The combination of these two factors made Su Lilu sense a conspiracy.

Her intuition told her that this was definitely related to Prince Xiao.

In order to let Chu Yan see the truth, she hid behind the tree and then woke Chu Yan up again.

"Ah, Luo'er, what exactly happened?"

When Chu Yan woke up, she exclaimed in surprise. Fortunately, the refugees were making too much noise, so Chu Yan's voice was unlikely to attract attention.

Su Liluo pointed to the group of refugees and said, "Yan'er, someone is trying to harm us! Look!"

Chu Yan looked in the direction Su Liluo was pointing and saw a group of refugees going crazy around the carriage, with the screams of women heard among them.

"Ah! What are you doing! Don't pull down my clothes!"

"Help! What are you doing! What are you doing! This is the carriage of Prince Xiao's residence!"

"Don't touch me! Don't touch me! I have no food, no food!"

"Ah! Please don't touch me! I'm not a princess! I'm not a princess!"

princess?

Chu Yan's heart skipped a beat.

She recognized the voice as that of her personal maid, Qiuhe. Why was she calling out like that?

Did she know who these people were looking for?

This realization sent a chill down Chu Yan's spine. She bit her lip and stared intently at those people, tears glistening in her eyes.

If Luo'er hadn't saved him, he would be the one suffering this humiliation now!

"Who is it? Who wants to harm me?"

Chu Yan asked, her body trembling.

Su Liluo patted her shoulder reassuringly, "Don't rush, let's take our time and wait until they leave before going out."

About fifteen minutes later, a luxurious carriage suddenly appeared in the distance, accompanied by many guards.

A familiar figure stepped off the carriage, dressed in a bright and beautiful pomegranate red dress, with a slender and graceful figure.

It is Chu Yun.

"Sister, what's wrong? Someone, please help me! How dare these refugees bully my sister like this!"

"Wasn't Princess Xiao coming out with the Crown Princess? What's going on? Doesn't the Crown Prince send anyone to protect her?"

"Brother-in-law, is the Crown Princess here too? I did see two women in the crowd, but their clothes..."

Chu Yun covered her mouth, hesitating to speak.

Her and Xiao Wang's coordinated actions made it clear to everyone that Chu Yan and she had been insulted.

Xiao Wang's men walked into the crowd and quickly dispersed the refugees. Then they saw two women in the middle with torn clothes and disheveled hair, hugging themselves and crying in humiliation.

"Sister, Crown Princess, are you alright?"

Chu Yunqiang suppressed his inner joy and ran over with a sorrowful expression.

Chu Yan, hiding behind a tree, watched all this with a chill running through her heart.

Su Liluo held Chu Yan's hand tightly, and was about to lead Chu Yan out when she suddenly heard an unfamiliar male voice.

"Has something happened to Yan'er?"
