"Thank you, Big Sister. Father didn't leave any luxury things for me and Hao'er. They are just things for me and Hao'er to miss them, which are not good enough to be displayed in front of the Emperor!" After a long while, Shao Wanru reached out to gently touched her forehead and said in a light way.
The invisible strangeness in the air immediately faded away in her faint voice.
However, such fading made Shao Yanru want to spit out blood. The atmosphere just now seemed to cause something to happen, but it just ended up with a casual sentence. Her goal had not been achieved, which really made her not reconciled.
"Fifth Sister, whatever will be fine, as long as it can remind Emperor of Eldest Uncle!" Shao Yanru felt a little embarrassed and annoyed for no reason. She gritted her teeth secretly, but the look on her face was still gentle.
"Big Sister, you can leave now!" Shao Wanru evaded the issue, and then suddenly expelled the guest.
The carriage went straight to Prince Yue's Mansion. As soon as it turned into the main street of Prince Yue's Mansion, Shao Yanru's calm voice came out of the carriage, "Go back to the mansion!"The coachman took a big turn on the street and changed the direction of the carriage. After that, he asked seriously to Shao Yanru in the carriage, "First Miss, shall we go back to our mansion now?""Yes, go back to our mansion!" Shao Yanru pulled the handkerchief in her hand and frowned, but she did not look as annoyed as she had been just now after being irritated. At this time, she could not act rashly and blindly. If she came here rashly in a panic, people would definitely notice. Even if she entered from the back door, it would not be appropriate.The more complex the situation was, the more she could not panic. She took a deep breath and suppressed all the anxiety in her heart. This matter had to be given further thought, and actually, her own aff
"I'll take care of this girl for more time!" Madam of Duke Xing said decisively.Shao Yanru said disdainfully, "Why? You have raised her for so long! She has been provided with delicious food and drinks all the time. Do you really intend to raise her for the rest of her life?"Since Wang Yishu came back from the palace in a faint, it was said that she was very weak and was so sick that she could hardly speak. She was maintained with medicine every day, but in fact, she was grounded in the yard. There were only one old maid and one servant girl to serve her. No one else was allowed to enter and no one inside was allowed to come out.She seemed to live an imprisoned life."You don't have to worry about this. Your father and I have other plans!" Madam of Duke Xing said impatiently.Shao Yanru was unhappy in her heart, but there was a faint smile on her face. She stood up and said, "Mother, I am tired. You go to deal with
"How could he be so shameless to come here? He plotted against you with First Miss Shao before, but now he wants to come here in the name of First Miss Qi. How shameless he is!" Yujie said angrily.Yujie and Qu Le knew what had happened in Yuhui Nunnery. After that matter, Qi Tianyu had gone down the mountain in disgrace, but it was unexpected that he would come again this time."He thinks that I really wanted to know these and wants to threaten me with them to help Qi Rongzhi out. He believes that as long as he has these things, it will be easy to ask me to say a few words for Qi Rongzhi!"Shao Wanru sneered.Qi Tianyu thought that although she had made some progress, she was still a girl in the boudoir and had little experience. As long as he tried his best, he would be able to deal with her. Qi Tianyu really thought too highly of himself!However, Shao Wanru could tell from what she had just said that there was some
Shao Wanru left the next morning, and no one expected that she would leave. Old Madam of Duke Xing took Madam of Duke Xing to Rui'an Great Elder Princess's Mansion, but she did not find Shao Wanru. Old Madam of Duke Xing, who struggled to come over, was so angry that she almost fainted. That girl must have done it on purpose. She knew that she would come over and "implore" her to go back, but she left early.Old Madam of Duke Xing's Mansion was reluctant to come and then left angrily. It was rare for Rui'an Great Elder Princess to send her to the gate, and she held the hand of the Old Madam with a reluctant look, repeatedly explaining Shao Wanru's intention to observe mourning and cultivate for her parents.Even though she was still injured and it was difficult for her to take a step forward, she still asked someone to carry her to Huaguang Temple.Her words made Old Madam of Duke Xing's Mansion, who had claimed that she was sick and came to in
"It's the Third Young Master Wen!" Qu Le hesitated for a moment and said discontentedly, "I'm wondering what makes the Third Young Master Wen mix up with the First Miss. I thought him quite smart. But now he seems to be a fool deceived by the First Miss.""It's Lord Wen!" Shao Wanru corrected her with a smile. Although it was unexpected, she was not quite surprised. Shao Yanru had to maintain her relationship with Qiu Yu for interests, but she should be on good terms with Wen Xichi!The Wen's Mansion and Duke Xing's Mansion were neighbors, so the kids of the two mansions had known each other and played together since their childhood. Afterward, they grew up and couldn't meet at will, so it became inconvenient for them to get along in the old way.In the last life, Shao Wanru married Wen Xichi. Once, after Wen Xichi took some medicine and went to sleep, she wandered around the Wen's Mansion. Nevertheless, she didn't dare to go too far, so she ju
"Fifth Miss, don't worry. You just need to tell me bluntly. I'll only record it and won't put you in a difficult situation. I mean to find out the truth for you!" Hearing no sound come from behind the screen, Wen Xichi said slowly.His words couldn't even convince himself. It was just an official statement. Regarding what Shao Wanru was going to be faced with, it actually had nothing to do with him. Wen Xichi had never considered himself a soft-hearted person. After discovering his cousin sister's evil intention, he dealt with her swiftly and ruthlessly by making his second brother and her caught meeting in secret behind the fake hills and being intimate with each other. His parents were very angry now.His mother suggested that his second brother should marry his cousin sister, but his father thought that such an ill-behaved girl was unqualified to be the legal wife and could only be a concubine!His parents kept arguing about it and couldn't
Getting Lord Wen's approval, the two officers from the Ministry of Justice took action. If they could show their capability in front of the young and promising Lord Wen, they could probably have a bright future!Thinking of this, the two officers from the Ministry of Justice immediately walked over in high spirits. Of course, it was also because they couldn't bear to be belittled by a maid as the officers from the Ministry of Justice."Get out of the way!"The chest was placed between the two old maids from Duke Xing's Mansion. Seeing the two officers from the Ministry of Justice coming over, they became uneasy."There's nothing special against the rules in the chest!" An old maid stepped forward, stopped the officers from the Ministry of Justice, and said. The First Miss had just asked the officers from the Ministry of Justice to take them up the mountain in order to put on a bluff rather than to check the stuff they brought.
"Are they made of... the Colorful Yarn?" One of the officers from the Ministry of Justice touched the collar and said uncertainly."Let me have a look!" The other officer from the Ministry of Justice took the clothes, and said hesitantly after pinching them carefully, "It seems to be true!"Because the Colorful Yarn was precious, very few people had the opportunity to see and touch it."How about presenting them to Lord Wen?""Okay, I'm taking them there now!" After the two officers from the Ministry of Justice had a discussion, one of them took the clothes and went inside to find Wen Xichi, who was in the corridor. Wen Xichi took the clothes and pinched them carefully, and then nodded to indicate that it was the Colorful Yarn. After talking with Wen Xichi in a low voice for a while, the officer from the Ministry of Justice returned to the door of the courtyard.He raised the collar of the clothes in his hand and said
"Not yet. My leg just cramped up." Shao Wanru reached out to touch her calf, but her belly was too big to reach it.The Emperor reached out his strong hand and massaged her calf. The young and handsome Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. "Thankfully, you are not going to deliver the baby!"As soon as he said this, Chu Liuchen realized he had said something wrong. He hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that. It's good that you are not delivering the baby now."After saying that, he realized that something was wrong again and laughed.Shao Wanru laughed so hard that she couldn't speak. Since when did Chu Liuchen, who was as scheming and gloomy as a demon king, could not even speak clearly?"You're still laughing. Did I say anything wrong?" Chu Liuchen glared at her. However, with an elegant smile on his face, he didn't look domineering at all.Shao Wanru continued laughing happily. After a while, she s
Everything in the past had a cause, but this cause was concealed in many mists, so it appeared unreal.After reading the letter in her hand, Shao Wanru put it down with a trace of a smile across the corners of her eyes. She had been relieved of some things. Once she hoped that Qin Huaiyong would treat her like Qin Yuru.This was what she hoped for most in her last life. After all, at that time, she had always thought that she was Qin Huaiyong's biological daughter, and she had no idea that her identity had been seized by Qin Yuru. Right now, Shao Wanru didn't want to mention it again. After the rebirth, she found out the truth and could not be reluctant to get close to Qin Huaiyong anymore.The memories of her last life were fading away, and they become blurred in her eyes.Putting down the memorial in her hand, Shao Wanru smiled with an elegant and calm look in her eyes. "Madam, please pass my gratitude to Ningyuan Army Gen
Shui Ruolan followed the Nanny who led the way ahead and felt uneasy. Since she came to the capital, she occasionally associated with some Madams from aristocratic families. She would not attend their parties unless it was necessary.On the one hand, she always had a weak character. On the other hand, every time she joined them, some Madams always asked about Madam Di intentionally or unintentionally. They were polite to Shui Ruolan on the surface, but they sneered at her behind her back when talking about her.People in the capital thought that Madam Di was Qin Huaiyong's legal wife. Shui Ruolan was a divorced woman. How could she compare with a decent Madam from an aristocratic family? Her status was much lower than Madam Di's. Of course, there were some people who flattered her. They were two-bit nobodies who wanted to curry favor with Qin Huaiyong.This was the first time Shui Ruolan had entered the Palace since she came to the capit
"Yes, Her Highness fainted. Hurry up... Inform His Highness to go to see her. Mingqiu Nun is also there... Hurry up!" Yujie was so excited that she spoke incoherently."Are you stupid?" Xiao Xuanzi looked at Yujie as if she were a fool."Quick! It's true. Believe me." Yujie was overjoyed and kept urging."His Highness will get angry," Xiao Xuanzi reminded Yujie.Yujie blinked her eyes in confusion. "Go quickly. His Highness will be happy.""His Highness will be angry!" Xiao Xuanzi said loudly. He thought that Yujie was out of her mind. What nonsense she was talking about! Xiao Xuanzi had seen with his own eyes how his master treasured Princess Chen. Princess Chen fainted now, but Yujie said that Prince Chen would be happy. What could he be happy for?Xiao Xuanzi felt a chill on his back. He even thought that he might not be safe. Instead, this silly girl was giggling here.Yujie looked
The swing swayed slowly. Shao Wanru sat on it and slightly narrowed her clear eyes in the sun, enjoying the gentle breeze. After a shower, the sky cleared up. Under the blue sky, she felt quite pleasant.It was the third day since the violent political upheaval in the Palace. Everything had returned to the right path, and the Emperor had woken up. The Fake Dead Medicine was remarkably effective.Chu Qing planned to kill the Emperor and shift the blame onto Chu Liuyue. In the end, he occupied the Palace, but at the last moment, Chu Liuchen changed the ultimate outcome.Chu Qing was not the deceased emperor's son. As the truth was exposed, he became a surviving supporter of the previous dynasty.Consort Dowager Qing had an affair with the prince of the previous dynasty on the run and was pregnant. After that, she met the deceased emperor, who had come to wipe out the rebels. She seduced him and entered the Palace. Not long aft
Chu Liuyue looked at the Emperor indifferently. During this period, the Emperor often vomited blood. He was used to such a scene. He fainted again, but so what?He walked up to pull the Emperor up and said, "Father, you'd better write it carefully so as not to cause me more trouble..."The next moment, his hand paused before the Emperor. Abruptly, Chu Liuyue reached out to feel his breath, and his face changed drastically."Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Derong was terrified and looked at Chu Liuyue. Likewise, he reached out to feel the Emperor's breath and knelt on the ground in a panic. "His Majesty... passed away!"Chu Liuyue looked sullen and reached out to feel his breath again. He found it hard to believe that the Emperor would die of anger because of him. Although he had said he was not afraid of this result, it became more difficult for him to clear up such a messy situation when the Emperor died. Since he was in t
Lights of every palace in the imperial Palace went out at night. There was a great noise somewhere. When the first scream came, many people put on their clothes and lit the lights again.These women in the Palace looked ghastly pale. They wanted to hide elsewhere but couldn't find shelter in the darkness. They trembled and huddled together, not knowing what had happened. Anyway, it didn't sound like a good thing. How could such a lot of awful noise appear in the Palace? The first idea that came to many people was that a rebellion was happening.In the night, Zhaoyi Di hurriedly followed a eunuch carrying a lantern and went to a palace out of use.Chu Liuyue was sitting in the middle of the hall."Greetings, Your Highness!" Zhaoyi Di said."How is it going?" Chu Liuyue asked."Commandery Prince Cheng has taken some people to the Emperor's resting place!" Zhaoyi Di reported."Good, well d
"From the previous dynasty?" Shao Wanru looked up. Though she was surprised, she didn't show it. She had figured it out. But after confirming it, she was wide awake."Will the Empress Dowager be in danger? I'll go to the Palace every day in the next few days!" Shao Wanru suggested."No, it's too dangerous!" Chu Liuchen shook his head."It doesn't matter. I have helpers by my side and bracelets!" Shao Wanru reached out her hand and cutely shook it. There was a pair of glossy sapphire bracelets on her wrist. At a glance, they were not ordinary.Chu Liuchen said with his face darkening, "No!"Such a close-fitting concealed weapon should be the last resort. As long as he thought Shao Wanru would be in such a dangerous situation, he would not be at ease. "Let Qin Yiyan accompany my Imperial Grandmother!""But someone should accompany and protect Noble Consort Lan. If those people deal with her..." Shao W
"Master, there is something wrong with the sandalwood." Qi Jue pulled an incense stick out of the incense burner at hand.Chu Liuchen took it and frowned. "What's the problem?"Qi Jue replied with a serious look, "There is something added to it. If it is used for a long term, one will be mentally and physically exhausted, then lack strength, and spit out blood. If putting another ingredient into the medicine at this time, it is very likely to cause sudden death."On the bed, the Emperor leaned against Noble Consort Lan with a pale face. Just now, he spat out blood again, and he felt very uncomfortable all over.Noble Consort Lan stroked the Emperor hard while looking toward Chu Liuchen with her red eyes, but she did not speak."What was added?" Chu Liuchen asked sternly. He didn't trust the imperial physicians in the Palace, so he brought Qi Jue to the Palace. After entering the Palace, Qi Jue did not check the
