Chapter 59: Will your childhood sweetheart choose you?
Miss Liu suppressed her pounding heart; her eyes were almost on fire from anger and jealousy.
"Yu Shengsheng, how dare you!"
She forced herself to hold back, turned around hurriedly, and looked up to see Su Zhiyi not far away.
Miss Liu forgot that she had also come here secretly, and ran towards Su Zhiyi in a hurry.
"Princess, did you see that? Yu Shengsheng, that bitch, her face is ruined, yet she still dares to seduce the prince."
"That's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! How dare Yu Shengsheng do that?" Miss Liu suddenly paused and took a breath, "Princess, do you think that when she was in the villa, she..."
Su Zhiyi withdrew his gaze from where Yu Shengsheng disappeared and looked up at Miss Liu.
The cold gaze was like a knife or an arrow, piercing straight into her eyes.
Miss Liu was frightened by her stare. She had never seen such a vicious look from Su Zhiyi before. It seemed that the look alone could swallow her up.
"County... County Lord."
Su Zhiyi said indifferently: "Why is Miss Liu here?"
Miss Liu smiled awkwardly: "I, I came to the lotus pond to take a look and pick some lotus seeds."
"Is it because of my elder brother?" Su Zhiyi pointed it out effortlessly, "Ms. Liu, do you like my elder brother?"
Miss Liu blushed and said shyly, "No, no, I just admire the young general for his achievements and bravery. It's just pure admiration."
Su Zhiyi put her hands on her knees and looked into the distance again: "The weather is hot, I have prepared ice cups and ice yogurt for everyone in front, Miss Liu, go and have some."
Miss Liu nodded, walked a few steps and turned back: "Princess, please don't tell the young general yet, okay? I want to find a suitable time to talk to him myself."
Su Zhiyi said nonchalantly: "Okay."
Miss Liu blushed and ran away.
Yu Shengsheng had long disappeared, but Su Zhiyi was still looking in the direction where she disappeared. Hatred in his heart rolled like waves, and frost slowly condensed in his eyes.
Miss Liu was right, Yu Shengsheng, how dare she!
She has an unclear relationship with Shen Zhiyuan and now tries to seduce the prince.
It seems that her previous feeling was not wrong. The prince used the gift to give her to get Yu Shengsheng disfigured. The prince was targeting Yu Shengsheng, not her.
This realization made Su Zhiyi feel like his internal organs were on fire.
Yu Shengsheng, you even dare to snatch the prince from me, so don't blame me for going too far.
Originally I just wanted to destroy your face, but now, I want your life!
Ru Jian leaned forward to comfort her: "Princess, don't be angry with her. Her face has been ruined. The injury was not shallow. She was born in a lowly family. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not..."
Before she could finish her words, Su Zhiyi slapped her in the face.
Ru Jian was already injured, and after being hit by her, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. But he ignored the pain and quickly knelt down.
"Useless, useless thing! If you hadn't failed to completely destroy her face just now, how could she be in trouble now?"
"Yes, it's my fault for being useless," Ru Jian lowered his head and slapped himself a few more times.
Su Zhiyi's eyes flashed with coldness: "Go down and deal with your face, and tell the troupe to change the play."
"Yes." Ru Jian got up and retreated.
Su Zhiyi sat alone for a moment and clapped his hands.
A guard appeared quietly.
"How's the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"My lord, there is already some clue. Yu Shengsheng had a childhood sweetheart named Qi Mubai."
Su Zhiyi frowned slightly: "Qi Mubai, this name sounds familiar."
"My lord, this person is the most popular candidate in this imperial examination. The palace examination has not started yet, so I cannot say that he is 100% sure to be the top scorer, but he will at least be among the top three."
Su Zhiyi raised the corners of his mouth, and said in a brisk and sharp tone: "So that's it."
I see.
Su Zhiyi remembered that he had heard Su Yanshu mention this person more than once, and also said that after the results were announced, he intended to recruit Qi Mubai to work for the prince together.
The guard added in a low voice: "Princess, there is one more thing."
"explain."
"Qi Mubai, courtesy name Lanting."
Su Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, and scenes flashed through his mind, and suddenly it was as if the clouds had cleared and the sun came out.
Qi Mubai, Lanting.
Shen Zhiyuan, Lan Chi.
It turns out that the handkerchief embroidered with orchids by Yu Shengsheng refers to Qi Mubai.
It turned out that what Yu Shengsheng said to Shen Zhiyuan, that she had never liked him, was actually true.
Su Zhiyi laughed out loud.
Yes, compared to Shen Zhiyuan, that loser who has always relied on his father, Qi Mubai is the one with great prospects.
Yu Shengsheng made the smartest choice without saying a word.
Fortunately, she and the Su family thought that Yu Shengsheng had taken a fancy to Shen Zhiyuan and wanted to snatch her marriage.
It turns out that other people have high standards and look down on him at all.
No wonder, at that lotus viewing banquet, it should have been Yu Shengsheng who got into trouble, but in the end it was Ru Jian who got into trouble.
turn out to be!
Okay, Yu Shengsheng, you are so nice!
I want to see, now that your face has been ruined and your reputation has been ruined, will your childhood sweetheart still want you?
Faced with fame, wealth and a promising career, will your childhood sweetheart choose you?
"Find him, keep an eye on him, I want to see him."
"Yes." The guard retreated silently.
Yu Shengsheng knew nothing about this. She returned to the yard, responded vaguely to Jin Baobao and Nanny Zhou, and changed her clothes again.
Looking at the wound again, it was indeed better than before.
For a moment, I didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.
The prince's words, "Soon you won't be bullied by the Su family anymore," kept lingering in her ears, but she was not happy about them.
She knew that the prince would never pull her out of the fire pit easily, but would only push her into a bigger fire pit.
The prince himself is a pit of fire.
The thought of going to the theater made her feel exhausted both physically and mentally, and she needed to rest for a while to relax.
Lying down and counting the time, every day is really hard to bear.
I don’t know how Qi Mubai is doing now.
I really hope I can meet him sooner.
The Su family has never been vague about Su Zhiyi's affairs, and they have invited a famous and popular opera troupe that knows many plays and sings beautifully.
The guests already knew that this was the opera troupe that had been invited, so most of them did not leave after the meal but came to the stage to watch the show.
Soon, the seats were full.
Mrs. Su was busy greeting the guests. Now her anger had subsided. She thought of Yu Shengsheng again. She had to make such a fuss, otherwise today would have been perfect.
Forget it, after all, it's my own flesh and blood, there's no need to hold a grudge against it.
I was just planning to ask the maid to ask Yu Shengsheng if she wanted to come and see the show.
Before I could say anything, I turned around and saw Yu Shengsheng coming by himself.
Mrs. Su was a little unhappy again. She was so careless. She had just gotten into trouble and was embarrassed, yet she came to watch a show again.
Now that I'm here, I can't just sweep back when so many people are watching.
She walked over with a smile and pulled Yu Shengsheng to sit in the corner.
Yu Shengsheng didn't want to come in the first place, and didn't pick a seat.
She didn't need to look to know that the prince was sitting in the first seat on the second floor. His cold and pointed gaze was like a sharp bone scraper, sweeping across her back.
Not only the prince's, but also those noble ladies. Some of them were not seen in the front yard just now, but they had heard about it. When they first saw her beauty, they couldn't help but be amazed, and then looked at the wound under her eyes, they were shocked again.
Amidst all kinds of gazes, Yu Shengsheng heard the sound of a gong.
The show has begun.
