As Ayan crushed the string of beads on her hand before she died, Qi Su knew in her heart that something was wrong.

Looking at Dao Ci again, his face was indeed as white as paper, and his lips as red as blood.

In the original book, they died one after the other.

However, Dao Ci died first, followed by A Yan.

Now that Ayan has died first, will Daoci also be taken away by the butterfly?

She was about to follow when suddenly someone grabbed her wrist tightly.

That person had a pair of fox-like eyes, alluring and full of affection.

"Haha, I finally found it!"

He looked Qi Su up and down, his face full of joy at their reunion.

Qi Su was dressed in men's clothing and was an ordinary little helper in the flower garden responsible for moving flowers.

He had a dark complexion and thick eyebrows.

Even disguised like this, she was still recognized, which was something Qi Su hadn't expected.

"It's been a few days, why have you grown a beard?" Shen Qingyu asked, curiously tugging at her beard.

"Even if you grow a beard, I will still like you."

Qi Su: "Who are you? You've mistaken me for someone else."

Shen Qingyu: "Your voice doesn't sound right; it should be deeper. Like this—"

As he spoke, he demonstrated it himself.

Qi Su... that crazy person.

She tried to shake his hand off.

"I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."

Shen Qingyu's hands were like snakes, growing out of her body.

"I have things to do too, you can't leave."

Seeing Qi Su glaring at him, he smiled slightly.

"That woman just died, did you see? Her blood spurted out with a 'plop,' almost spraying me, it scared me half to death. I really need to be comforted right now. So, shall we go and get married?"

Qi Su: ?

She thought she was mentally ill, but after encountering a real mentally ill person, she realized that she had always been very rational and clear-headed.

Now that things had come to this, Qi Su touched her chin.

"It's not impossible."

Shen Qingyu: "You agree?"

Qi Su looked at his fake smile.

"But I want the person with the highest official rank in this garden to officiate my wedding."

Shen Qingyu: "What does 'official marriage certificate' mean?"

Qi Su: "It means being my matchmaker."

Shen Qingyu: "What if I don't agree?"

Qi Su affectionately touched his face.

"Honey, if I were you, I would definitely say yes."

Shen Qingyu burst into laughter.

"Okay, well, what can I do? I like you."

…

Song Changshi was in a terrible predicament.

It's one thing for the princess of Beiting to die, but she left behind a mess of black water gu in the garden that needs to be dealt with.

They also need to investigate the servants in the garden and eliminate the spies planted by various parties.

Overwhelmed with grief, Lord Qin, embroidered with the body of the woman from Beiting, was reminiscing about the past in the garden.

It's not good to disturb them.

Most importantly, His Highness Yunzheng has suddenly fallen into a coma for some unknown reason.

This child is afraid of blood, but it would be better if he fainted at the sight of blood.

In a short time, most of the doctors in Jincheng gathered in Song Garden.

While Prefect Song was fidgeting, he suddenly heard someone report from outside the flower hall.

Young Master Shen requested an audience, saying that there was an important matter concerning the future of the Song family, and he asked the old patriarch to make the decision.

What Young Master Shen? Never even heard of him. I'm not seeing him!

A trusted aide suddenly leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Song Changshi's brows were so furrowed they could trap a fly.

It's one thing for the younger generation in the family to be immoral, but why are the older generation also immoral?

At such an advanced age, she still has an illegitimate child.

A crucial matter concerning the future of the Song family...

Hmph, very well, he'll see what it is.

…

After Song Changshi took his seat in the flower hall, two young men soon entered the flower hall under the guidance of servants.

One of them had a valuable orchid jade pendant hanging from his waist and was dressed in a dashing and wealthy manner.

Judging from his appearance, he does indeed have some of the charm of the family head's nephew in his youth.

The other was a drab, dark-skinned servant, utterly unremarkable.

"What is it?" Chief Secretary Song asked.

Shen Qingyu lifted her robe, knelt down on the ground with a thud, and spoke in a very loud voice.

"Please, sir, arrange a marriage for us."

Chief Secretary Song frowned: "If you want to get married, go find your father. Why are you coming to me?"

Wait, you two?

Where are the two left in this flower hall?

Isn't it just this little Shen, and that dark-skinned little servant next to him?

Why would he marry a servant?

Chief Secretary Song's head was buzzing, and he was about to slam his fist on the table and shout angrily.

But then a dusty-looking servant who had been standing silently to the side walked over.

Without any hesitation, he picked up the teacup beside him—

It fell onto his own sleeve.

Then he began to wipe his face.

As I wiped, the black powder came off, revealing the fair and smooth skin underneath.

He wiped his left side and then haphazardly wiped his right side, leaving his entire face exposed to the sunlight.

She has a round face and round eyes; she's quite pretty and looks somewhat familiar.

Until that person called out to him with a half-smile.

"Lord Song."

Chief Secretary Song snapped out of his daze and exclaimed, "Oh my god, it's you!"

Qi Su: "It's a long story."

Shen Qingyu: "It's not a long story. We are deeply in love and would like to ask the old man to arrange our marriage."

Qi Su: "Yes, that's right. He wants to marry me."

Qi Su then sat down next to Chief Secretary Song.

Chief Secretary Song: "Nonsense!"

If you marry her, what will happen to His Highness?

Shen Qingyu: "I'm not kidding at all. She is my wife. I posted missing person notices all over Jincheng in order to find her."

Song Changshi suddenly realized.

That's when I realized why I felt a sense of familiarity when I saw this girl last time.

He had seen that notice before. His wife even pointed it out to him, saying that young people these days do things they don't understand.

Song Changshi's gaze became complicated.

How can this little Shen compare to His Highness? His Highness's only flaw is that he has no hair.

He coughed lightly.

"Marriage is a serious matter and should be approached with caution. You should go back first; I'll talk to this girl and ask about her family situation."

Shen Qingyu narrowed her eyes.

"You can chat even with me here. What, does Grandfather know my wife?"

He finally understood.

I've been tricked by this young lady again.

Although the details of their past are unknown, it is clear that Chief Secretary Song and this young lady have some history.

Chief Secretary Song had already exhausted his words and had no intention of being perfunctory anymore.

He waved his hand, signaling his men to drag the eyesore away.

Shen Qingyu was being dragged by five people, and her voice echoed in the flower hall.

"You wait, I won't let you get away next time!"

.

Qi Su finally caught her breath and finished a cup of tea in one go.

He said to Chief Secretary Song, "A child with a mental illness really can't be kept at home; he has to go to a manor outside to cultivate himself."

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from above.

"I've finally found you."

It's Hei Xiao Er, the Black Bird Guard.

Qi Su still remembered the last time he slandered her insect gu.

"What do you want with me?"

"Master's old ailment has flared up again, you should go and take a look."

"Ha, now you remember me. Do you take me for something cheap?"

Hei Xiao Er remained silent for a moment.

"Think about your title as Princess Consort of Qishan. If you could become a princess consort, your aunt would definitely be very happy."

Qi Su...

This dark-skinned, upright fellow has actually learned to make empty promises.
