"I didn't expect a jailer to be so arrogant. You're really good!”
She sneered and sat down on the spot.
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Situ Mantian asked coldly.
"I'm just telling you, don't think that I can't do anything to you just because I'm locked up in this prison now. When I get out, you'll have a good time!”
There was a hint of ruthlessness on her face, as if she really meant what she said.
Even a man like the jailer was shocked by Situ Mantiao's expression. He couldn't say a word!
"You…Don't scare me. Do you think I'm afraid of you?”
After all, he had been here for a long time, so he quickly changed his mood and looked at Situ Mantian with disdain.
"Do you know that no matter who you are, once you enter the imperial prison, it is not easy to get out again? Moreover, you are just an unfavored princess. Do you think you still have a chance to walk out of here?”
Situ Mantian was shocked. She did not expect Chu Yixuan to really want to kill her this time!
Seeing Situ Mantiao standing there in a daze, the man naturally felt proud of himself.
"One look and I know you don't know about this. Let me tell you, there was a prince locked up here before, and he was executed in the end.”
He looked at him from head to toe. He was pretty, but unfortunately, he still couldn't escape death.
Situ Mantiao's face was lifeless. She didn't expect that she would still die after transmigrating from the modern era to this era.
Then what was the point of all this?
Did she come here just to get some fresh air and endure Chu Yixuan's humiliation?
"Oh…"
Just as Situ Mantiao was sitting on the ground in a daze, he heard the man groan in pain.
Shocked, she quickly looked up.
A woman in white stood in front of him, and the man from before was lying at her feet.
Situ Mantian looked at her warily, her face full of vigilance.
"Who are you?"
Her figure looked very familiar, but her face was covered with a white veil, so her face could not be seen clearly.
"It doesn't matter who I am. You're more curious about what I'm doing here, right?”
The woman slowly walked up to Situ Manyao, revealing only her eyes.
Situ Mantiao looked at her carefully. Her eyes seemed to be smiling and bewitching.
"If you're willing to tell me, I naturally don't need to ask.”
Situ Manyao was indeed curious about who ordered her to come, but she pretended to be uninterested.
She knew that the more curious she was, the more likely she would not tell him.
"I didn't expect wangfei's memory to be so good. We just met yesterday and now she doesn't remember me!”
The woman didn't seem to mind as she looked down at Situ Mantian.
Situ Manyao hated it when people looked down at him like he was a king.
She gritted her teeth and stood up, enduring the pain.
The two of them were about the same height. She looked at her with confusion in her eyes.
"In that case, do you still remember me?”
She tilted her head slightly and took off the veil on her face.
She revealed a pure but not charming face.
A face flashed across Situ Mantian's mind, and she was shocked.
"Why is it you!"
"Who else did you think it was?"
The woman looked at Situ Mantian with a faint smile. Although she was a stranger, her eyes were too charming, making people feel disgusted.
The two of them looked at each other for a long time. After a while, a woman spoke helplessly.
"I thought you would ask me."
"Ask you what?" Situ Mantiao was not as nervous as she had expected. She was as calm as if she had known that she would come back.
"Do you know who sent me here?”
She was a little curious. In the past, she had helped her master do many similar things. Those who were framed could not help but curse and shout that they were wronged.
It was the first time he had met such a shocked and cold person.
"Is there a need to ask?"
Who else but Chu Yixuan could have done this!
Thinking about it, it was ridiculous. She thought that she had poisoned Chu Yixuan's wine and could make the current king lose face in front of the important officials. She did not expect him to actually come up with a scheme within a scheme and get herself involved.
Back in the Imperial Residence, Chu Yixuan had tried every means to kill him. Now that he had finally gotten his wish, he must be so happy that he couldn't close his mouth!
Situ Mantiao licked her dry lips. She didn't need to think to know how pathetic she was right now.
"Whatever you want to say to me, I'll do it, but can you give me a bowl of water first?”
She had never been like this before. She was in such a sorry state that she could not survive without this bowl of water.
The woman in white didn't expect Situ Mantian to make such a request. She looked at the man on the ground and nodded as if she knew something.
The water was so cold that it felt like a block of ice had been stuffed into Situ Mantian's throat. Situ Mantian drank the water in a hurry, and after downing the bowl of water, he felt as if his entire body was cold and devoid of warmth.
This was how the human body looked after death.
She pursed her lips and swallowed the cold water in her mouth. She raised her hand and wiped her mouth roughly.
"Tell me, why are you looking for me?”
"It's not a big deal. I'm just here on Master's orders to take a look at your injuries.”
She paused and glanced at Situ Manyao.
"It seems doctor Zhang's medical skills are really good. Although wangfei has not fully recovered, she looks much better.”
Situ Mantiao frowned and looked at her sharply."Are you from the palace?"
It seemed that his guess was right. She was familiar with everything in the palace, so she knew the identity of the imperial physician.
The woman's expression changed. Then, she remembered that she should have noticed it long ago, so she put on an indifferent expression.
"Since wangfei knows who my master is, then you shouldn't be so surprised when you know that I'm from the palace, right?”
Situ Manyao nodded. She was right.
"Since that's the case, then wangfei rest well. My master will choose a time to come and visit you!”
After saying that, she turned around and left. Situ Mantiao watched her leave, and the hatred in her heart intensified.
But what could she do?
Situ Mantian looked at the sealed cell hopelessly.
Chu Yixuan, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!
She would never forget the pain he had inflicted on her!
Chu Yixuan put down the book in his hand and looked at the sky. There was not a single star tonight. The weather tomorrow would not be good.
He thought of Situ Mantian's injuries and frowned.
Why would she set up the emperor for no reason?
This crime of regicide was not light.
Thinking of this, he could not help but frown."Someone come!"
"Your Highness, it's already so late. What orders do you have?”
"Help me prepare a horse. I want to enter the palace!”
Situ Manyao was truly a shocking person. First, he hurt Yuqing, and now, he even wanted to murder the Emperor.
Could it be that she had some unspeakable secret?
But if she really wanted to kill the emperor and scheme against him, why didn't she put some poison in the wine?
"Yes, sir!"
Chu Yixuan's eyes darkened, his lips tightly pursed.
"Wangye, it's so late, where are you going?”
Lu Yuan had just reached the door of the study when she saw Chu Yixuan coming out. She was stunned and asked curiously.
Chu Yixuan glanced at her from the corner of his eyes and hummed lightly without saying anything else.
"Wangye, I've instructed the chef in the kitchen to make lotus seed porridge for you.”
She didn't know what his highness had been busy with these past few days. She hadn't seen him for a few days, and it was rare for her to be free today, so she quickly came over to see him.
Ever since she had moved into the Greencloud Pavilion, the other three madams had become unfriendly to her. Thinking about it, she still had to curry favor with his highness and gain a firm foothold here.
"I still have things to do!"
His face was full of impatience and anger was building up between his brows. Lu Yuan did not dare to approach him anymore and stood at the side to watch Chu Yixuan leave.
"What, did Madam Lu Yuan suffer a setback at wangye's place?”
After watching Chu Yixuan leave, Lu Yuan turned around and was about to return to her room when she saw Zi Dai standing behind her.
A hint of impatience appeared in Lu Yuan's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"It's already so late, Zidai, you're still not asleep?”
"That's right, I was thinking of wangye, so I came to the study to take a look. I didn't expect to meet you, Lvyuan.”
The servant girl beside her held a lantern in her hand and illuminated her.
"Lu Yuan, you always say in front of us that you didn't do anything in front of His Highness, but now it seems that you're playing us for fools!”
No wonder his highness had quietly asked her to move to the Greencloud Pavilion. It turned out that she had always fawned on his highness behind the sisters 'backs!
"Usually, you always look like you don't care about the mortal world. It seems that Lu Yuan, you're just good at acting, right?”
What Zi Dai could not stand the most was that someone other than her was favored by his highness. Now, she could take this opportunity to humiliate her wantonly.
Lu Yuan averted his gaze and did not speak.
Although she was scheming, she had yet to climb to the position of the princess consort and still needed to swallow her anger.
Just wait, when she climbed up to the position of wangfei, she would take revenge on all those who had humiliated her.
"Zidai, you misunderstood me. Just now, I heard the servants in the fu say that wangye was still in the study, suffering from mental stress because of wangfei's matter. Lvyuan was worried that wangye's body would be damaged from overworking, so she instructed the cook to cook lotus seed porridge for wangye. Who would have thought that wangye was in a hurry and couldn't come to eat so he left!”
She still acted like a weak lady to gain sympathy.
Zi Dai snorted coldly and did not say anything. Although her attitude did not improve, she did believe that her words had caused suspicion.
"Sister, do you want a bowl? His Highness is busy and the lotus seed porridge is already cooked. If the extra is just served like this, it would be too wasteful!”
"Rare!"
Zi Dai carefully observed her expression a few times before leaving with a disdainful sneer.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
