Yuwen Shi suddenly remembered what happened in the Qi Wu Residence. At that time, she pretended to cry, but in fact, she had been secretly glancing at Situ Shi from the corner of her eyes. She cried,"Elder sister, if we allow Murong Shi to continue being so arrogant, she will not even put you in her eyes in the future!”
How could Lady Situ not know what the idiot Yuwen was thinking about? However, her face still looked kind. She asked Dong Jin, who was beside her, to pour her a cup of cold tea with a blue ground powder teapot with the pattern of longevity."Murong shi is after all the woman that wangye loves, little sister can be more tolerant.”
Seeing that Situ Shi didn't take the bait, Yuwen Shi's black pearl-like eyes rolled around and said,"" Who is she? In King Qian's estate, sister is the most respected person. Back then, his highness had sister sleep with him for seven consecutive nights. After that, there was also Brother Yu…"
"Meow!" The melon seed cat in Lady Situ's arms suddenly cried out mournfully. Only then did Yuwen stop. Looking at Lady Situ's clear and unclear eyes, she hurriedly apologized,"Sister, please forgive me. I didn't mean to bring up your sad matter…"
Before Yuwen Shi could finish speaking, Situ Shi placed the melon seed cat on the ground. The melon seed cat was frightened and fled without a trace.
The courtyard of the Parasol Tree Residence was filled with the golden sunlight of midsummer, as if it had dispelled all the haze. And Yuwen Shi suddenly felt a chill, and unconsciously had goosebumps all over her body. She suddenly turned her head to look at Mrs. Situ. The lake-green jade on the turquoise jade pendant on her head swayed, reflecting the sunlight through the window grilles like flowing water.
The Yuwen family was secretly upset. Everyone in King Qian's estate knew that Tuoba Yu was a sore spot for the Situ family. She had a boy with Tuoba Qian in her early years. He was born intelligent and was made the crown prince when he was five years old. However, not long after Tuoba Yu became the Crown Prince, he died of small-flower disease. The Situ family was devastated and almost died with him. From then on, no one in the residence dared to mention Tuoba Yu's name.
Situ Shi turned around, but there was no trace of displeasure on her face. Yuwen Shi saw thousands of struggling souls in her eyes, as if they wanted to drag her into them.
"Younger Sister is really concerned about me.”Mrs. Situ lowered her eyes. Her long eyelashes covered her eyes, making it impossible for others to see the expression in her eyes.
At this time, Yuwen Shi used all her strength to break free from Situ Shi. She stumbled and rolled into the bed, leaning against the wall. Her chest rose and fell violently. Seeing that she was still approaching, her ashen face widened like copper bells, as if she had seen a ghost in the world.
"Situ Qianman, my father is the wing commander of the third-grade firearms camp in the current dynasty, and he is also the highest general under His Highness. If you kill me, the connection between my father and His Highness will definitely be weak.”Yuwen Shi suddenly touched under the pillow and was suddenly stunned.
Madame Situ took out a pair of copper scissors inlaid with gold and jade from a rattan basket at the side and chuckled."Are you looking for it?" Seeing that her only weapon had been discovered, Yuwen Shi could only wrap herself tightly with the newly laid blanket. In this summer, she covered her head with sweat.
Lady Situ sat next to Lady Yuwen and used her right hand to comb her hair. She didn't care about her trembling body and smiled,""Don't you understand? Even if you die, your father will only be indifferent to his highness. He won't really cut off contact with him.”
"Situ Qianman, in the past few years since we entered the residence, we have not interfered with each other. Why are you treating me like this?”Yuwen Shi felt dizzy and her breathing was weak, but she held on, afraid that if she closed her eyes, Situ Shi would kill her.
Situ Shi's hand suddenly tightened, and Yuwen Shi's black hair was naturally pulled. She fell into Situ Shi's arms in pain, and Situ Shi whispered in her ear,""You are courting death. In this world, no one can use Yu 'er. Since you dare to use him to provoke my hatred for the Murong family, you should have thought that I would also make you consigned to eternal damnation.”
Yuwen Shi was forced to raise her head. Her almond-shaped eyes seemed to have only the whites left, and she was about to faint. She used her last bit of strength and said,"What can I do to make you spare me?"
"Pushing today's matter to the Murong family.”After Situ Shi finally said this, Yuwen Shi nodded. She relaxed and fainted on the bed.
Lady Situ returned him to his original position and continued to guard the side of the bed. The wind blew away the haze in the room as if nothing had happened.
In Cunlan Residence, the doctor inserted a silver needle into the kettle. The silver needle did not change color, which meant that the water was not poisonous. After that, he dipped his hand in it, sniffed it, and tasted it with his tongue. In the end, he concluded that this pot of water was indeed red flower water.
According to the servants in the mansion, Yuwen Shi came to the house not long after the afternoon. During this period, she kept drinking tea until Lan Fu returned to the house. From this, one could know how much tea Yuwen Shi drank mixed with red flowers, so she would bleed after returning to the house.
Lan Fu stood in the room in a daze. The wind rustled as she lowered her head. Tuoba Qian could not see the expression on her face clearly. He still had some doubts in his heart. After all, in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, the scene of her solving the chess game did not seem to be fake.
But now, all the clues pointed to Lan Fu. Even if Tuoba Qian wanted to protect her, he couldn't do it. In his opinion, the relationship between men and women couldn't be compared to power, so he was inclined to the Mellor family's statement.
"Murong Shi, do you have anything else to say?”Tuoba Qian asked softly. He had already made up his mind. If Lan Fu was willing to admit his mistake, he would spare her once for Murong Xu's sake.
Lan Fu knelt on the summer lotus blanket and said miserably,""If you want to add a crime, you don't have to worry about having no excuses. I didn't do this. Your Highness, just because there are red flowers in the kettle, you think Lan Fu is an unpardonable person. Isn't it too arbitrary?”
Her words completely angered Tuoba Qian. He waved his black sleeve and pointed his right index finger at Lan Fu."This Prince did not care about the Mu Rong family's small family background and took you into the residence to become a Fujin. Not only did you not know how to be grateful, but you even plotted against others.”
Lan Fu raised her head, her limpid eyes filled with stubbornness."Does wangye think that it is Lanfu's fortune to have Lanfu in this courtyard? Lan Fu had just entered the manor yesterday, and today she knew the taste of wind blades and frost swords. Yesterday, she stayed alone in an empty room and was ridiculed by the people of the Imperial City. Today, she would be demoted or expelled from the Prince's mansion. In this life, Lan Fu would no longer have a good man. Did His Highness really think that Lan Fu should be grateful?”
