After the Fifth Princess left, Shangguan Xuanyi huffed coldly.
"Don't agree to things like this in the future, she doesn't lack people to comfort her." Not to mention, their relationship was already complicated enough; Shangguan Xuanyi wasn't that generous.
No matter whether she had wronged Xiao'er or not, the hurt Xiao'er had suffered was undeniably linked to her.
Even if she had never agreed to hurt Xiao'er, who's to say that the emotional pain of her silence wasn't a form of hurt?
The mage from last night had suddenly died from poisoning. He gained some trivial information from the mage these few days—they were determined to take blood from Xiao'er in the name of avenging the Crown Prince, but Shangguan Wanru had always refused. As for those mentioned by the mage as his clan, he dared not reveal a word.
This information had no significant use for him.
