In her past life, Su LiLuo sacrificed everything for Prince Chu’s grand ambitions. She agreed to a proxy marriage with the crippled Crown Prince, disregarding her reputation and using her charm t...
Su Liluo agreed to let them in because she was very curious about what Su Wanshi wanted to do after being released from prison by the Prince of Chu.
"Greetings, Crown Princess!"
Since being reprimanded by Su Liluo several times, Su Xuanlang and Su Wanshi now bow respectfully whenever they see her.
Su Liluo gave a soft "hmm" and sat comfortably on the high chair, looking at them with a somewhat ambiguous smile in her eyes.
What brings you here today?
She uttered those words softly.
Su Wanshi felt a pang of jealousy as she looked at her haughty demeanor.
Su Xuanlang smiled gently and said, "Your father and mother feel that they have mistreated you before, and that Wan Shi's poor hospitality put you in danger last time, so we have come here today to give you gifts and apologize."
"Oh? A gift, an apology?"
Su Liluo sighed softly.
She stole quite a few things from Jiang Qinshu's private treasury yesterday; she wonders what valuable things the Su family can bring out now.
And an apology? Su Wanshi has to apologize to herself?
That's quite interesting.
"Yes, please accept this as a gift, Your Highness."
Su Xuanlang nodded, and then had the servant bring up the prepared gifts.
There was a large pear wood box, which, when opened, was filled with many precious headdresses and jewelry used by women.
It looks like it's worth at least a few thousand taels.
Su Liluo never refused the Su family's money, since it originally belonged to his parents.
Therefore, Su Liluo didn't say anything and had them carried away.
Su Xuanlang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Liluo accept the gifts, thinking that this was a sign that Su Liluo was about to reconcile with them.
Seeing that she didn't make things too difficult for her, Su Wanshi followed suit and stepped forward.
He bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, I was not hospitable enough last time, which gave Li Taoyuan the opportunity. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me."
She thought Su Liluo would simply say "hmm" or tell her to get up, but after she spoke, she didn't hear Su Liluo's voice for a long time.
Su Wanshi was a little confused. She secretly raised her eyes to look at Su Liluo, only to see her looking at her with a mocking expression.
"Princess..."
Su Wanshi called out again tentatively.
Su Liluo then raised an eyebrow. "Oh, I won't forgive you."
What!
Upon hearing this, Su Wanshi's palms tightened suddenly, as if she wanted to pinch herself until she bled.
The originally harmonious atmosphere instantly became incredibly awkward.
Seeing this, Su Xuanlang also said, "Your Highness, Wanshi was also deceived last time. She didn't do it on purpose. I hope you can be magnanimous and understanding."
"She didn't do it on purpose, she did it intentionally."
Su Liluo retorted without any politeness.
"Princess."
Su Xuanlang was also somewhat resentful.
They all apologized humbly, and she wasn't really hurt anywhere, but Li Taoyuan suffered a terrible fate.
What exactly is she being so dramatic about?
"Someone, show them out!"
Su Liluo ignored them completely and had them sent out directly.
Su Xuanlang and his companions were furious. Before they could even ask her to help the King of Chu, they were ruthlessly kicked out.
However, Su Liluo was in a great mood. She accepted their gifts worth several thousand taels of silver and even humiliated Su Wanshi.
It's worth it to open the door and let them in this time!
Outside the mansion, Su Wanshi glared resentfully at the Crown Prince's residence after being kicked out.
"Second brother, this Su Liluo has absolutely no regard for family ties. He took our things and then kicked us out!"
Su Xuanlang's face was also ashen. "She really went too far. I even felt guilty towards her before. It seems that she is truly wicked by nature!"
They are family, how could there be any grudges that last overnight?
I've already humbled myself to apologize and offer her gifts, and she still kicked me out?
Even though he was a scholar, he was so angry that he died at this moment.
The two of them returned to the Su residence in a huff and told their father and father what had happened that day.
They were all equally furious, yet also somewhat troubled. It seemed unlikely that they would be able to persuade Su Liluo to work for the King of Chu.
Su Wanshi hated him to the core. She had bowed her head and served time in jail, but why did Su Liluo always seem to be against her?
What does it look like?
She had a gut feeling that Su Liluo would always be against her from now on.
Wherever Su Liluo is, things will never go smoothly for him.
Suddenly, a vicious idea popped into her head.
Let her die.
With her dead, the Crown Prince will be all alone. If she were to approach him again, even without marrying him, she could still become his confidante.
If she wins the Crown Prince's heart, wouldn't it be the same if she infiltrated the King of Chu's ranks?
With this in mind, she became interested.
Excited, she quickly came up with a plan.
And she told Su's father and the others about her thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Su's father was not very supportive. He hesitated and said, "Wanshi, isn't this bad for you? If you associate with His Highness the Crown Prince, won't the Prince of Chu mind you in the future...?"
Su Wanshi shook her head and said, "No, Father, I am confident that I can win the heart of the King of Chu. The things I do for him will only make him grateful to me."
She has that jade pendant, but she remains the eternal white moonlight in the heart of the King of Chu.
She believed that no one could replace her white moonlight.
Jiang Qinshu was not worried about this. She believed that her daughter was the most outstanding and intelligent, and that the King of Chu and the Crown Prince would definitely be completely captivated by her.
So she said with relief, "I think Wan Shi's suggestion is good. At least she is of one mind with us. Letting her do this is better than letting Su Liluo do it."
In this way, she wouldn't need to lower herself to please Su Liluo.
She really hated having to be subservient to that wretched girl, Su Liluo.
Su Xuanlang, standing to the side, remained silent, feeling quite disappointed in Su Liluo.
Afterwards, Su Liluo suggested that the whole family go to pay respects to their ancestors, and that Su Liluo and the Crown Prince should also come along.
The pretext was to offer sacrifices to the ancestors for the ailing grandmother, praying for her peace and health, and to create an opportunity for her to have contact with His Highness the Crown Prince.
But she didn't tell Su's father that she had another plan.
When Su Liluo received the invitation to pay respects to her ancestors, she gave a cold smile again.
The Su family really never stops causing trouble!
Considering the recent events, Su Liluo had a vague guess: could it be that they wanted her to work for Xiao Churen, just like in her previous life?
That's why Xiao Churen actually made an unprecedented request to meet me last time.
But after being rejected by themselves, they came up with another idea.
However, she looked at the post again and saw that it not only mentioned herself, but also expressed a desire for His Highness the Crown Prince to go with her as his son-in-law.
Why did they insist on inviting Xiao Ye along?
Although she didn't quite understand, she still told Xiao Ye about it.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye simply said, "In that case, I will accompany you."
He also felt that this was another trap.
I wonder what kind of trouble the Su family is up to now.
