Chapter 1455: Xiao Jingrui's Past
During the five-nation exchange meeting, there was another matter circulating in the capital.
That is, the Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom would give the princess of the Guguo a million dollars to show the friendship between the two countries!
In return, the princess of the Guguo gave him a medical card that could help the prince once!
Now, everyone knew that Lin Yuelan's medical skills were extraordinary and could bring people back to life. Obtaining her promise once was equivalent to giving him a guarantee of his life!
Therefore, this return gift was not shabby.
On the contrary, it seemed that the Second Prince of the Black Cloud Kingdom's gift was a little shabby.
This was because many people believed that a million dollars was not equivalent to the Second Prince's life.
Therefore, the Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom used a million to buy a guarantee for his life.
For this reason, many people secretly laughed at Xiao Jingrui. This was not a loss for him, was it? At the very least, he had a safety net in his heart.
At the same time, everyone thought that the princess of Guguo was too generous.
She could have given her other gifts in return!
Many people felt envious of Lin Yuelan's medical insurance card. If they could also contribute millions of silver, would they also get a medical insurance card?
However, they were not the Second Prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom, who could easily fork out millions of wealth. They were not the Shui Zhou Kingdom, which had hundreds of Night-Luminescent Pearls at once. Similarly, they were not the richest man, Liu Yichen, who had endless wealth.
Therefore, they couldn't give Lin Yuelan millions so easily. They just felt regretful.
However, Xiao Jingrui benefitted from this. He should be happy, right?
A small courtyard in the capital
Xiao Jingyu knelt in front of Xiao Jingrui. After taking off her veil, her face was pale.
She kowtowed and admitted her mistake." Your Highness, please forgive me this once. I won't do it again!"
She had only heard that Ni Lai Wo Wang Inn was run by Lin Yuelan, so she wanted to go there and check it out. At the same time, she wanted to understand the enemy's situation.
However, she did not expect that the guards she brought along would have their limbs broken. She had not even started to eat and cause trouble. Instead, she flipped the table and even spent a lot of money to pay for it.
Until now, she still didn't understand. She had accidentally broken a bowl, but when she broke the second bowl and flipped the table, she was completely unconscious.
When she finally reacted, she realized that she had flipped the table in public.
It was the complete opposite of the gentle and kind image she had created. She was completely a rogue shrew.
What was going on?
Xiao Jingrui didn't look at her but just looked at the medical insurance card in his hand, expressionless, thinking about the past.
Although he was the second prince of the Black Cloud Kingdom, his mother was a maid in the palace. Once, the emperor got drunk and raped his mother. After that, he was born.
When the Empress found out, she was furious and wanted to kill the maid who had climbed onto the emperor's bed.
After that, his mother begged his father, and his father eventually protected him for the sake of his children. However, he killed the mother and left the son. After that, the child was forcefully adopted by the Emperor under the Empress' name.
This made the Empress feel as disgusted as if she had eaten a fly, but the Emperor had ordered that she had to raise the child. Otherwise, if something happened to the child, then her position as Empress would be abolished, and the Crown Prince's position as the heir would also be abolished. Therefore, she had no choice but to endure the disgust and rejection and let him continue to live.
In fact, he knew very well that the Emperor was not paying attention to him or liking him. Instead, he thought that he was the heir of the royal family. Since he was the heir of the royal family, no matter what identity he had, he would definitely survive.
That was why he was handed over to the Empress to be raised and let the Empress bear the responsibility of raising him.
Although he could survive, they turned a blind eye to him. The servants around the Empress were also people who could observe people's expressions. As long as his life was not endangered, they would either ignore him like the Empress did or beat and scold him. His life was worse than those of the lowest servants.
Later, when he grew up, he was often beaten, scolded, and bullied by other princes and princesses. He was often injured and curled up in a corner, silently licking his own pain.
However, one time, when he was being kicked by five or six princes and princesses, a child of four or five years old saved him.
