Chapter 650 The different fates of the two princesses
"No...impossible!!" The old king denied loudly and emotionally, "Edward did not do such a thing! He would not do anything to a baby!!"
Su Qiao looked at him calmly, "Whether he would do such a thing, I think you should have the answer in your heart."
The old king's face turned pale, and the sagging muscles on his face were trembling slightly.
Su Qiao is right.
No matter how loudly he denied it, the voice in his heart could not be lost...
If it was Lance, he didn't need to be so excited, because he knew that Lance was pure and kind, and would even pity the lives of animals, let alone a baby...
And Edward...
Edward was his first son and the one who looked most like him, almost exactly like him when he was young!
——Ambitious, good at hiding and forbearing, scheming, tactful and shrewd...always able to make the most correct choice!
He is a good emperor, but it is difficult to judge whether he is a good person in terms of good and evil...
Because of this, the old king loves his younger son Lance even more, who is like his mother.
The old king slumped down on his chair, instantly becoming more than five years older.
"Zhu Jiang...is there any way to save her?" the old king asked slowly.
Although he was not ashamed of Zhu Jiang's identity, Zhu Jiang had been with Celine since he was a child, and the old king had watched Zhu Jiang grow up.
The little girl with the mark on her face was timid at first, always lowering her head and covering her face with her hair. The slightest movement would scare her...
Later, as she grew older, those fears and vulnerabilities were deeply hidden, leaving only indifference, vigilance, and hostility.
Except for Celine, Zhu Jiang looked at everyone with cold eyes.
This is also normal.
The world was very bad to her, and she should be so...hate the world.
But the old king always remembered one scene.
It was Celine's tenth birthday. Her princess castle was brightly lit and there was laughter everywhere. The little princess was surrounded by stars, wearing a luxurious dress and opening gifts under the gaze of everyone.
Every time one is taken apart, there will be exaggerated cheers.
Celine was amused and giggled.
The old king saw it and felt a sense of family happiness.
Then he accidentally glanced outside the door and saw Zhu Jiang's figure. She was actually a few years older than Celine. She was still a little girl. She wore black clothes every day, and her original thin figure was reduced to a shadow.
She stood in the corner out of reach of the laughter, with short hair covering half of her face. She watched Celine, who was held in the middle by everyone, happily cutting the five-layer princess cake.
The girl's eyes were full of silent envy...
She noticed the old king's gaze, and the moment she noticed it, Zhu Jiang's eyes returned to their usual vigilance and indifference, and she turned around and ran away.
Behind her, Celine was shouting unscrupulously: ‘Where is Zhu Jiang? I want Zhu Jiang to come and eat the biggest piece of cake with me...'
After so many years, the old king still remembers Zhu Jiang’s figure standing outside the door that night, and his envious and lonely eyes...
Zhu Jiang has not turned black for so many years. In addition to being constantly brainwashed, there may be another reason - the warmth and love that Celine gave her.
"There is a theoretically feasible way that may be able to save Zhu Jiang." Su Qiao said, "But it may not be possible in time."
The old king frowned: "What does this mean?"
"Earlier, Zhu Jiang and Xilin were attacked on their way back to Country K. Zhu Jiang was forced to become a demon, and the demon-suppressing spell on her face was also catalyzed..." Su Qiao thought about it and said slowly, "What's left of her?" The time it takes to lay... should not exceed two months at most."
"what?!"
"what are you saying?!"
Two voices sounded simultaneously.
One belongs to the old king, the other...
The old king raised his eyes following the sound, and when he saw the familiar figure rushing towards him, his pupils shrank sharply, "Celine?!"
The person who came was none other than Princess Celine!
Su Qiao was not surprised. She had noticed the aura of the unicorn beast on Xilin before, but she just pretended not to notice it.
After all, Xilin had no power and could enter Si Youyuan, either because Shen Xiujin let her off or because he arranged it.
just now……
Su Qiao looked at Tang Yi walking behind Xilin, her clear eyes narrowed slightly, and her heart was like a mirror.
Very good, Mr. Shen in her family focuses on openness and transparency.
Celine held up the hem of her skirt, which was not convenient for movement, and rushed over in an imageless manner, but ignored Grandpa and went straight to Su Qiao.
"You said Zhu Jiang is going to die?!"
Su Qiao: "Yes. If the demon-suppressing spell on her is not released within two months, she will definitely die."
"No! I won't allow Zhu Jiang to die!" Xilin's eyes were so anxious that her eyes were red, "You are so powerful, you must have a way to save her, right?! You save Zhu Jiang, I will give you whatever you want! Please! Please... I will give you all the private money I have saved!"
