Chapter 597 Wen Xichi Got to Act

“Miss, people are all saying that you are the root of the trouble. When you were in Qin’s Mansion, you made the whole mansion restless. The original formal wife of General is now grounded in the backyard, and no one knows whether she is dead or alive. First Miss’s reputation has also been ruined. Then after you were recognized by Duke Xing’s Mansion, it’s said that you have stirred up trouble in Duke Xing’s Mansion and made Rui’an Great Elder Princess and Duke Xing’s Mansion become enemies!”

Yujie came in angrily and reported to Shao Wanru the news she had gotten from Madame Dong after going down the mountain today.

Shao Wanru blinked her eyes and said, “Someone is secretly taking action to cope with the previous rumors. Is it because of this rumor that people discuss less enthusiastically the other people in Duke Xing’s Mansion?”

“Yes, many people are talking about you now. They are all wondering if you are really a living disaster in this and anyone who is related to you will get in trouble!” Yujie became angrier as she spoke.

“A living disaster?” Shao Wanru walked to the window and looked coldly at the sleeping lotus in the water vat!

This piece of news could really vindicate Duke Xing’s Mansion and Shao Yanru, so Shao Yanru definitely had something to do with this rumor. She could spread a rumor so well and so cleverly, which meant that this opponent was very difficult to deal with. Shao Wanru couldn’t even guess who did this to her out of spite.

Since she entered the capital city, there were only a few families that she had contacted. The one who could help Duke Xing’s Mansion at this time must be related to Duke Xing’s Mansion, but only a few of them also had the ability to do so.

“Miss, shall we ask Prince for help…” Yujie also saw the fish tank outside the window. She thought for a while and asked cautiously.

“A disaster!” Shao Wanru curled her lips and her ruthless eyes fell on the blooming lotus flowers. She didn’t know who was acting in the dark, but she knew that if the “disaster” really referred to her, she would be ruined completely.

A “disaster” could destroy not only a family but also a country! The superior was most afraid of the so-called disaster. If there was a disaster, how could he survive? It meant that the superior’s position was unstable, and it might even make people suspect whether he had gotten his position in a justifiable way.

The matter about the current emperor’s throne was originally strange. It was said that the throne belonged to Chu Liuchen, and it was the emperor who had stolen his nephew’s throne. Now when it came to the so-called disaster, this idea was more convincing.

It was obvious that someone was trying to put her in a dangerous position and kill her!

“Miss, what should we do now?” Yujie asked anxiously. Nanny Dong also asked her to report this matter quickly and ask Shao Wanru to come up with a solution as soon as possible. Otherwise, something terrible would happen, and even Rui’an Great Elder Princess could not protect her.

Shao Wanru bit her lips to pale, and she deeply felt powerless. Even though she had been reborn, she was just a woman in the backyard. Such kind of cruel method in the imperial court was definitely not used by a woman!

He acted quickly and killed her with one shot. This made her think of the vague feeling that she had had after being cut in two at the waist that day. It had been so painful and powerless.

Everything around her had seemed to be so twisted that she could only see a piece of blood. There had also been a large blurred scene, which seemed to be the corpses of beautiful women. The blood had been dripping down from the high steps, which had made her unable to tell whether the scene in front of her had been an illusion or a truth…

“Miss, Miss…” Yujie’s panicked voice came to her ears. Her twitching fingers touched a place that could support her. Her hands were cold, which stimulated the madness in her heart. She slowly opened her blood-red eyes, and there were a few sleeping lotuses in front of her. Although there were not many, the colorful lotuses were swinging on the duckweed and water with vitality.

There was no step covered with blood, nor the pained and twisted body of hers!

She squinted and suppressed the smell of blood in her heart. She felt that the blood in her whole body was flowing slowly again, and the madness just now seemed to be merely her illusion.

“Miss, Miss, what’s wrong with you?” Yujie reached out to hold her, and her face changed greatly. Just now, she saw Shao Wanru’s body tighten with her eyes closed, and she was about to fall down. Fortunately, Yujie reacted quickly and reached out to hold her.

“Miss, I have something to report!” Another steady voice came, which made Shao Wanru’s excited heart gradually calm down.

She took a deep breath, lowered her head, and saw that she was tightly holding a jade paperweight fixed on the table.

“I am fine. Let Qing’er come in!” She said in a low voice and tried her best to calm herself down. She could clearly hear Qing’er’s voice outside.

“Yes, Miss.” Yujie carefully let go of her hand. Seeing that Shao Wanru could stand there steadily, Yujie breathed a sigh of relief and turned to the door to let Qing’er in.

Since Shao Yanru left, everyone in the courtyard was Shao Wanru’s people, so it was much more convenient for them to get along with each other.

It was much more convenient for Qing’er to do things, who pretended to be a rough servant girl.

Qing’er came in and gave a salute to Shao Wanru.

“What’s the matter?” Shao Wanru asked, still looking at the paperweight. This paperweight was given by Chu Liuchen. In order to prevent her from falling down, Chu Liuchen specially made a shelf to fix this jade paperweight on the table, because Shao Wanru had accidentally broken several jade paperweights before.

“Prince says that you can rest assured and everything would be fine!” Qing’er said.

Shao Wanru clenched the paperweight tightly in her hand as if only in this way could it give her strength. The clear jade had a touch of coldness, which made her gradually regain consciousness. She rolled her eyes slowly and asked, “What else did Your Highness say?”

“He didn’t say anything else. Just let Miss rest in the mountain to cultivate.” Qing’er took a glance at Shao Wanru’s expression. When she saw that Shao Wanru’s expression was getting better, she felt relieved.

The scream of Yujie in the room just now was clearly heard by her. She even saw Shao Wanru’s pale face and red eyes. She immediately knew that it was not good, so she came in to report to Shao Wanru.

She had just received the news from the foot of the mountain. Originally, she wanted to wait until Yujie finished reporting. But looking at Shao Wanru’s expression, she knew that it was not good and rushed in. When she saw that Shao Wanru had calmed down again, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Her master had made it clear that she had to protect Fifth Miss. If something happened to her, she would not be able to survive even if she had ten heads.

Seeing that Shao Wanru’s expression looked better and became lively, she wiped her cold sweat secretly. If she had known this earlier, she would have reported it before Yujie.

“You can leave now. I got it!” Shao Wanru nodded and looked up at the water lily outside the window. Her heart, which was cold and wild just now, somehow became peaceful because of this sentence.

It was very quiet in the imperial study. The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and picked up another one. When he saw clearly what was written on it, he was so angry that he threw the memorial out and sneered, “The Bane? They really dare to report it. Find out where these rumors came from and tell me who the Bane is?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I’ll send someone to investigate it now!” De Rong carefully bent down and picked up the memorials from the ground.

“Tell the eldest, second prince,” The Emperor paused for a moment, and his face softened a little, “and the third and fourth prince to come here. I’d like to see who has stretched out his hand!”

He put down a memorial, picked another one, and looked at it. He was so angry that it also talked about it. He put it on the side, and took another and put it down again. His face became angrier and angrier.

Yes, Your Majesty. Please wait for a moment. I will go now!” De Rong lowered his head and did not dare to look at the angry face of the emperor. He obeyed the order and retreated to the door of the imperial study. He sent a few eunuchs and guards and asked them to go out separately.

Prince Zhou came the fastest. He was originally in the palace. The second one to come was Prince Yue, Chu Liuzhou, and the third one was Chu Liuxin. He had spent a lot of effort to find here from an opera stage. The last one was Chu Liuchen. He was pushed into the palace in a wheelchair.

It was not because he was sick again, but because of his weak body. He walked really slowly, and if he were pushed, it would be faster. As soon as Xiao Xuanzi pushed Chu Liuchen into the door, he saw three princes kneeling on the ground. In front of them, there was a broken cup. He hurriedly pushed Chu Liuchen into the door with observation and then carefully retreated behind Chu Liuchen.

He kept quiet, just like the other servants in the room.

“Greetings, uncle!” Chu Liuchen raised his eyes, looked at his brothers kneeling on the ground, and then looked at the furious emperor whose blue veins were obvious on his neck, and said gently.

Pointing with his finger, Xiao Xuanzi hurriedly reached out to help him. Chu Liuchen stood up from the wheelchair and was about to kneel to the emperor to show his respect.

“You don’t have to, just sit down first!” Seeing Chu Liuchen’s behavior, the emperor’s expression softened a little, and he waved his hand and said.

Chu Liuchen didn’t refuse him. He held Xiao Xuanzi’s hand and sat down again. Xiao Xuanzi stood behind him obediently.

“Uncle, this is…” Chu Liuchen looked at the three people kneeling on the ground, and then looked at the emperor sitting on the throne. There was a little confusion on his face, and he looked very puzzled and worried.

“Look, you are all my good sons. I’m fine now, but you can’t wait any longer. Bane? What’s a bane? If I find out who it has something to do with…” The Emperor’s expression was cold. He picked up several memorial beside him and threw them all on their faces.

“It’s just a rumor in the marketplace, and you can’t wait to move. It seems that all of you are free. How could you care so much about a rumor in the marketplace, especially about the backyard. The officials in the court don’t care about political affairs. They are just in charge of the affairs of several women in the backyard!”

At this point, the emperor was so angry that he threw the rest of the memorial to his sons.

“Father, I don’t know what happened. I was wronged!” Prince Zhou pulled out a memorial on his face. Regardless of the pain of his nose, he hurriedly defended himself loudly.

“Father, I don’t know what happened too. I was in the Ministry of Works just now to see what is going to do about build the imperial court. I don’t know anything about the officials!” Chu Liuyue said respectfully. Although he looked calm, his eyes were slightly red, as if he had been wronged but tried hard to calm down.

“Father, I’m watching a show. I’m just investigating the people’s affairs there. I really don’t know if anything has anything to do with me!” The youngest Chu Liuxin screamed with the grievance. He really felt wronged. He had heard the rumors outside. He went out today to find out where they came from. But he found an opera garden. Before he could figure it out, the emperor had scolded him.

Until now, Chu Liuxin still felt puzzled and didn’t know where he was wrong. What did the memorial of the officials have to do with him?
