Clearwater Pavilion, Sunset Restaurant.
"Sister, you…you really have a venomous heart! " Sister Yourou is so good to you. She let go of past grudges and allowed you to enter the Clearwater Pavilion to play games with you. You actually…" Cai Yin's beautiful eyes looked viciously at the people in the hall, her face filled with disdain.
"Do you dislike Sister Yourou that much? Why did he hurt her again and again? If anything happens to her this time, how are we going to explain it to His Highness!”Ming Yue was worried and kept looking at the inner room that was blocked by the screen.
"What kind of expression is that! When wangye comes, let's see how arrogant you can be! Lord Chief, you must punish such a vicious woman severely!”Ke Er's previous weak appearance had also changed, and her tone was filled with sarcasm. This woman, Gu Yin, was not as furious as before. Instead, she had a calm expression on her face and did not take what they said seriously at all! Just looking at her like that would make people die of anger!
"Gu Yin, you're really…If anything happens to Miss Yourou, you won't be able to escape!”Wang Yu's face turned ashen as he paced back and forth outside the screen. After hearing Ke 'er's words, he turned his gaze towards Lin Yilan and his eyes almost burst out in flames! This vicious woman had once again extended her demonic claws towards the gentle and lovely Miss Yourou. She really wanted to kill her!
" I say, old…mm, Lord Chief, it's useless even if you scold me. If you want your Miss Yourou to be safe, letting me in is the best policy.”Lin Yilan had been cursing 'old man' in her heart for so long that she almost blurted it out habitually.
The person who was said to be the imperial physician had been in there for more than two hours. What kind of illness was he treating? He could actually be treated for so long! And this group of people was guarding against him as if he was a wolf, not allowing him to take even half a step closer. If anything really happened to Li You, it would be their responsibility.
"Do you think I'm stupid? Do you think I'll still let you get close to Miss Yourou?”Wang Yu pointed at Lin Yilan and shouted.
"Alright, I won't go in if you don't want to. You didn't yell at me either. It's bad for your health to be angry.”He rubbed his ears that were hurting from the shock and was about to find a chair to sit down. However, before his butt could touch the stool, he was pushed away forcefully.
After being pushed like this, Lin Yilan finally managed to steady herself. She suppressed the anger in her heart and curled the corners of her lips. She turned around and looked at Ke 'er."What's wrong? Little Sister Ke 'er couldn't even bear to give him a chair?”
"Gu Yin, you still have the face to sit? You injured Younger Sister Yourou first, and now that your younger sister's life and death are unknown, you have no sense of shame or remorse. Do you think a person like you is worthy of sitting in the Clearwater Pavilion?”Ke Er glared at Lin Yilan fiercely as if she had a blood feud with Lin Yilan.
"Then in Little Sister Ke Er's opinion, what is considered repentance?”Lin Yilan sneered and swept her gaze across all the women present. They were probably the ones who were happy that Li Youruo was in trouble, but they pretended to be anxious and sad. They were fighting for Li Youruo, and their expressions changed so much that she was deeply impressed!
"Kneel down! He kept kneeling until Younger Sister Yourou woke up!”Ke Er pointed at the screen and said to Lin Yilan with a sinister smile.
"Kneel?" A trace of anger flashed in Lin Yilan's eyes, but she quickly hid it. If she argued with them now, it would only be disadvantageous to her. But tolerating didn't mean that she would give in. There had to be someone worthy of her kneeling!
"What if I don't kneel?"
"You!" Enraged by Lin Yilan's half-smile, Ke Er gritted her teeth in anger. She turned around and immediately put on a pitiful expression as she said to Wang Yu,"Chief, look at her. What kind of person is she? He was actually so arrogant! Sister Yourou's life was in danger because of her! She didn't even kneel down to show her sincerity. How could she let such a person off easily?”
"That's right! Chief, she was so ruthless and had harmed Sister Yourou time and time again. How could such a person be allowed to stay in the Imperial Residence? Wouldn't he become a joke if this got out? Now, she's not even willing to kneel down. How can we accept this?”Ming Yue quickly replied. She had to make Gu Yin kneel today!
"Chief, you are in charge of all kinds of big and small matters in the wangfu. You have always been clear about rewards and punishments.”
"This woman, Gu Yin, is so ruthless and doesn't have the heart to change at all. We must teach her a profound lesson!”
The women's continuous words made Lin Yilan feel annoyed. She had seen slanderers before, but she had never seen such a group of people working together openly to slander her, especially when this slanderer's brain was not very good. She knew that the current situation was very unfavorable to her.
" That's true. Gu Yin, you've already harmed Miss Yourou twice. The last time, it was because Miss Yourou was fine, so His Highness couldn't be bothered to pursue the matter. But now, if something happens to Miss Yourou, you'll have to pay with your life. If the heavens bless you and you escape, you'll be expelled from the Imperial Residence. Before His Highness makes a decision, kneel down before Miss Yourou!”Reality had proven that if Wang Yu became the Emperor, he would definitely be an incompetent ruler who would be close to the vile and distant from the virtuous. A few words of slander would be enough to stun him. Wang Yu, who had long been unhappy with Lin Yilan, was angered by her instigation and ordered.
Lin Yilan was stunned and her stubborn temper rose."Why?" She thought that this old man was just a little rigid. She did not expect him to be so muddle-headed! Ha, the chief steward of the Imperial Residence? He was simply a good-for-nothing!
"You still dare to contradict the director? Gu Yin, quickly kneel down!"
"Kneel down for you? As the old saying goes, why?" Lin Yilan desperately suppressed the anger in her chest. The only thing she wanted to do now was to ruthlessly beat up this group of people!
"Gu Yin, this is the Imperial Residence! Do you think it's your Gu family? Hmph, I think you don't have much status even in the Gu family. A vicious woman like you will definitely not have a good ending.”
"Sisters, don't talk nonsense with her. This kind of person won't cry until she sees the coffin.”
"Miss, what orders do you have?"
"Make her kneel!"
"Let me go!"
Lin Yilan's hands were inexplicably restrained by a group of guards. She straightened her knees and refused to kneel." Old man, you're presbyopic. Can't you tell that these idiots are making a scene? Even if I really did harm Ruo 'er, fine, you can punish me, but don't you understand that you have to wait for wangye to come? What did they mean by that? Do they have the right to make me kneel?"
Don't provoke her, or you'll have to bear the consequences!
" This..." Wang Yu thought about it and realized that what Guin said made sense.
However, before he could speak, Lin Yilan knelt down with a thud.
"Yo, Sister Gu Yin, weren't you quite courageous just now? Why did he kneel so decisively now?”Yu Qin smiled as she walked in front of Lin Yilan and very " kindly " rubbed her knees." Your knees must be hurting from kneeling so hard?”
Lin Yilan turned her head and glanced at Ming Yue, who had a smug look on her face. The corners of her lips were still curled up.
Angry? Yes, she was very angry, but she did not want to satisfy these people!
"It doesn't hurt. Why would it hurt? Sister Mingyue's kick was a little lenient. Gu Yin was grateful! It's just that your sister really can't figure it out. Just now, she was clearly worried about Li Youruo to death. Why did she suddenly turn into a gossipy woman? Why did he open his mouth? He swallowed his words first! Let me tell you, you have to act more like it! I'm still lying on the bed. You said that your life and death are unknown. How do you have the time to discuss how to punish me? What are you staring at! If you want to look at me, look at me! Why are you staring at me when I can't see? Guilty? Am I lying? You know very well whether you are happy or sad! People like you should really throw yourselves into the lake. Why do you think I chose Li Youruo to push into the lake? You guys are more suitable than her! What are you pointing at! Take your finger back! It was so ugly! There are some things I didn't want to say…"
"Pa!"
The hall fell silent.
Lin Yilan's words had angered the ladies to the point that they almost bled from their seven orifices. They stood at the side and gloated at the people in the center of the hall. However, everyone's chest was still heaving up and down violently. It was obvious that they were furious.
Lin Yilan, who had her head tilted to the side, was silent for a long time. It was so long that it made one's hair stand on end. Only then did she shake off the guard who was holding her and reach out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Her cheeks were still burning with pain.
No one had ever hit her. Even her parents were willing to let her suffer the slightest grievance. Now, she was actually beaten and scolded by this group of crazy women!
She missed home!
She blinked hard to force back the tears in her eyes. Then, she raised her head and looked at everyone present. She put on a smile that was so gentle that it made people tremble. Although her voice was soft, it clearly spread to every corner of the hall."Don't be in a hurry to vent your anger on me. Go back and pack your luggage. You guys just pray that I can't find out who set this up. Otherwise, I'll pay ten times the price!”
Everyone was shocked when they heard that.
Such a gaze and tone could actually make them tremble! She…They…They wouldn't be afraid!
"What a…joke! You mean someone framed you? Investigate? What can you find out? It was clearly you who did it!" Ming Yue was the first to muster up the courage to rebut.
"That's right! Do you think his highness will still keep you in the manor? Worry about your own life!" Dan Yun said to Lin Yilan disdainfully as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"This woman really needs a beating!" Cai Yin, who was frightened by Lin Yilan's words, grabbed her head and prepared to give her another slap." Hold on tight! I'll let her taste the consequences of overestimating herself today!”
"Let go!"
Just as the hall was in chaos and the five beautiful girls were about to attack Lin Yilan, a voice that could make one's head turn cold came from the inside. Immediately after, a group of guards ran into the hall and split up on both sides.
Huangfu Yifeng, Huangfu Zhuoqing, and Ying Yun walked in one after another.
"Your Highness! Your Highness!" Frightened by this scene, the people in the hall hurriedly knelt down.
Pulling the already disheveled women to tidy up their clothes in a flurry, they actually let wangye see this side of them. This time, they were finished!
Huangfu Yifeng didn't bother with them as he turned to Wang Yu,""How is Ruo 'er?"
"Your Highness, the imperial physician is still here."
Huangfu Yifeng nodded and walked to the seats with Huangfu Zhuoqing. Then, he looked at the people in the hall.
His deep black eyes swept across the people below, and his gaze stopped on the woman kneeling in the middle.
His head was disheveled, and his hands were pressed down by the guards. A red five-fingered mark could be seen clearly on his cheek, and there was still a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. However, even though he was in such a sorry state, his bright eyes were still looking at Huangfu Yifeng indifferently.
"What happened?" There was no expression on his cold and handsome face.
"Your Highness! Sister Gu Yin harmed Sister Yourou. We all saw it!”Ming Yue hurriedly replied, afraid that Lin Yilan would seize the opportunity.
"Gu Yin?" Huangfu Zhuoqing looked at Lin Yilan. Unlike the first time Lin Yilan saw him, this man was now exuding an unparalleled aura. Although there was a gentle and polite smile on his handsome face, no one dared to look at him directly.
"Your Highness, it's her! This woman had always been vicious. Last time, she pushed Younger Sister Yourou into the water, and Younger Sister Yourou was blessed by the heavens. Now, she poisoned her again! This intentional murder should be a capital offense! Your Highness, please investigate!" Cai Yin was 'extremely sorrowful' as she recounted Guyin's crimes to Huangfu Zhuoqing. Although his highness was already handsome, the crown prince did not lose out to his highness in the slightest. Even the beautiful women of the wang fu could not help but want to attract his attention.
"Don't worry about that. Intentional murder is a capital crime. Of course, the murderer should be beheaded! This prince will not let this go easily!" The words he said with a smile made everyone feel cold. Huangfu Zhuoqing was not someone to be trifled with.
"Your Highness is wise!" Cai Yin trembled and kowtowed in fear.
Continue pretending! Lin Yilan looked coldly at the crazy Huangfu brothers, who had instantly transformed into well-educated, gentle, and lovely ladies of noble families. Other than sneering, she was still sneering.
"What kind of expression is that? You dare to be impudent in front of the Crown Prince and His Highness!”Ke 'er didn't show it at all. She seemed to be angered by Lin Yilan's expression every time.
"How would I know what kind of expression I have? I can't see it! Therefore, losing control for a moment was a common thing! Don't look if you don't like it. Why are you peeping at me?”
"You!" Ke 'er was about to pounce on her and give her another slap when Yu Qin pulled her back. She shot a look in Huangfu Yifeng's direction, hinting her not to do anything rash.
"Gu Yin, is that you?" His cold tone was emotionless. Lin Yilan couldn't understand why the people who were considered " intimate " in the afternoon had suddenly become strangers. He was the judge and she was the prisoner.
However, she did not expect this iceberg to side with her. If she wanted to escape, she had to rely on herself.
"Your Highness, your question is a little unnecessary. If you don't believe Gu Yin, what's the use even if Gu Yin cries out that he's innocent?”
"Don't make it sound like you've been wronged! We all saw it. You fed Little Sister Yourou an orange, and then she fainted. Tell me, how could you not be involved in this?”Dan Yun was infuriated by Lin Yilan's words. She had never expected Gu Yin to be so calm at this moment. If this continued, His Highness would not pursue the matter.
"That's right! Big Sister Yun, Big Sister Ke 'er, and I saw it! It was clearly you who was jealous of Younger Sister Yourou, that's why you did such a vicious thing. Are you still trying to slander us?”
"Okay, you said that there's something wrong with the oranges, so I ate them too.”Lin Yilan retorted. With Huangfu Yifeng's support, as long as he didn't side with them, these women wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
"What's there to be confused about? How can you not know which part of your hand is poisonous? Wangye, look, this is the orange I picked up outside Ke Er Pavilion!”Ke Er proudly took out the 'evidence' and looked at it proudly before handing it over to Wang Yu.
After Wang Yu passed the orange to Huangfu Yifeng, the two brothers looked at each other. Huangfu Zhuoqing took out a silver needle and looked at Lin Yilan. Seeing that she was smiling indifferently, he gave Huangfu Yifeng a look that no one could see and then stabbed the needle into the orange to test the poison.
Lin Yilan took advantage of the moment when everyone was focused on the orange to turn her head and make a face at Ke 'er to vent her anger.
However, the moment he turned around, he was completely stunned.
The glowing silver needle turned black in the blink of an eye!
