"Everyone says you are the most beautiful woman in Beiliang. It doesn't matter which prince you marry in the future. The most important thing is to make the Nanning royal family chaotic."
Make good use of your face. Nanning arranged for us to stay in a courtyard because they wanted you and the Third Prince.
But after what I've seen today, the one who interests you most is the Second Prince. Although the Second Prince already has a principal wife, it doesn't matter; I can help you kill her."
Killing someone is as commonplace as eating a meal for Ye Beihan, let alone killing a prince's consort; he has plenty of ways to do it.
"Ye Qianning, as long as you make these two fight each other and fall head over heels in love with you, I will not treat you badly. I have heard that there is no man in the world that you cannot charm."
Ye Qianning smiled smugly. Conquering men was a piece of cake for her, but she had no interest in others. What she liked was toying with powerful and influential men.
Just like Ye Beihan in front of her, who was so ruthless and hated women, she wanted to conquer him and ravage him until he knelt down and begged for mercy, only then would she feel a sense of accomplishment.
"And what about you, cousin?"
Ye Beihan crushed the cup in his hand instantly, radiating a menacing aura as he warned her.
"Don't try to test my bottom line. I'm not one to show mercy to women."
Ye Qianning was a little frightened by his appearance, but the more he acted like this, the more interesting it was to conquer him.
"Okay! I know my cousin dislikes women the most."
Ye Beihan's gaze shifted to the wall, landing on the blood-stained portrait. He hated women, but not all women. This was quite interesting.
The fact that she is the Princess Consort of Prince Yu makes it even more interesting.
Ye Qianning followed his gaze and looked at Su Luo's portrait. It was a clean and simple painting, but he had to make it look like this.
"Cousin, do you intend to kill Princess Yu?"
"He is the Deputy Minister of Agriculture," he corrected Ye Qianning.
"yes!"
"I have other plans regarding the Deputy Minister of Agriculture. No one may touch her without my order."
"yes!"
It is said that Regent Ye Beihan hates women the most. Ye Qianning has seen all of this in the past, but this time, he seems to be paying special attention to this Princess Yu.
Could it be that she intends to use Princess Yu to do something, and then use that to deal with Prince Yu?
...
Since mid-July, Su Luo has transformed the entire Yuwang Mansion into her preferred style, planting flowers, trees, and shrubs in the courtyard and reserving a large training ground for Nangong Chiyu to practice his skills.
Su Luo replaced everything else, from small items like vases and tables to chairs and lanterns.
Today is the first day of cotton harvesting in Zhuangzi. Shenyuan has been waiting for this day for more than half a year. We made an appointment to go to Zhuangzi together today.
When Su Luo passed by the training ground, she thought Nangong Chiyu was practicing swordsmanship again. Unexpectedly, he took out the set of carving knives that Nie Hanlin had given him and was reading a tattered old book.
Su Luo quietly walked up behind him, covered his eyes, and spoke in a rough voice.
Guess who I am?
Nangong Chiyu smiled broadly, put down the book in his hand, and pretended to think, saying, "Who is this expert who has captured my attention?"
Su Luo bent down and whispered in his ear, "I don't know."
Suddenly, she was swept into Nangong Chiyu's arms. And to make matters worse, that damned Nangong Chiyu tickled her, making her giggle.
"So she's the mother of my child. No wonder she's so powerful."
Su Luo slapped his hand away and grabbed his ear with one hand.
"If you scratch me again, I'll cut your ear off."
Nangong Chiyu stopped, but didn't kiss her. Taking advantage of Su Luo's inattention, he kissed her on the cheek again and said mischievously.
"You're the one who wouldn't bear to cut it."
Su Luo let go, leaned against him, picked up the book he had put down, and glanced at it.
What did I see written on it? It symbolized a love affair spanning three lifetimes, but before I could see it clearly, Nangong Chiyu snatched it away.
"What book is this? Let me take another look."
Nangong Chiyu hid the book behind his back, refusing to let Su Luo see it.
"Just some old, miscellaneous books, nothing worth reading."
"Aren't you going to the estate? Go quickly."
Seeing him like this, Su Luo got up from his arms.
"Okay, I'm leaving then."
Only after Su Luo left did Chi Yi take out the trophy.
"Your Highness, everything is here."
Nangong Chiyu opened the box, which was wrapped in layers of soft cloth. As he gradually opened it, the contents were revealed.
It was a piece of pure, flawless white jade, still in its original state.
This jade is no ordinary jade; it is a piece of subterranean jade unearthed from a jade vein in the Northern Liang region.
It was also his spoils of war, dug out by a miner who offered it to him to save his life.
"Your Highness, you've kept this piece of Earth Core Jade all this time. What do you plan to do with it this time?"
"To make a bracelet for the princess."
Nangong Chiyu picked up the tattered book on the table and began to read it.
My finger stopped on one of the pages, which read "Three Lifetimes of Love: The Bracelet of Love".
The book describes the concentric bracelet as having a hollow design, yet it is a bracelet within a bracelet.
A bracelet is carved with an exquisite design of a hundred birds, and then a movable bracelet within a bracelet is cut out on the second layer inside the bracelet.
The second layer is carved with flying dragons, and the third layer is carved with flying phoenixes in the same way. Each layer can move freely.
Adding the carving element, the difficulty is extremely high.
The book also says that if it is carved from spirit jade and given to a lover, it can continue a three-lifetime love affair.
"Your Highness, you don't actually believe the Three Lives Bracelet in this shabby book and want to make it for the Princess, do you?"
Nangong Chiyu continued his study: "Why not?"
Chi Yi laughed awkwardly: "It's one thing to carve this bracelet, but to carve three layers, each of which can move freely."
Within a small bracelet, each layer is more difficult to carve than the last; the chances of success are extremely slim.
There's only such a small piece of the Earth Core Jade. Based on the princess's bone structure, it can only be used to make a pair of bracelets at most.
If the prince were to use it all for carving, he might accidentally ruin such fine jade.
"I never do anything without being sure of success. Let's go find Magistrate Nie and ask him for advice..."
...
Su Luo and her group headed towards the manor.
As she passed through South Street, she saw Ah Xu carrying several medicine packets and entering Nangong Qing's residence. Su Luo didn't know whether Nangong Qing's illness had actually improved.
She had visited him several times, but after half a month, Nangong Qing refused to see her, and Axu wouldn't talk about what was going on inside. She was willing but powerless to help.
Su Luo took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Su Zuo outside the carriage.
"Find someone to deliver the letter to the palace, and make sure it reaches the Fifth Princess."
"Yes, Your Highness."
They rode in Shen Yuan's large carriage, and Su Zuo didn't have to drive; he followed outside the carriage the whole way.
Su Luo asked him to deliver the message, so he took another route.
Inside the carriage, Su Luo and Xie Wanwan sat together, while opposite them were Shen Yuan and his son.
