“Pah!”
Shangguan Wanning raised her hand and slapped Shangguan Xiaoxiao twice on the face.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao was caught off guard and was a little dazed for a moment. The burning pain on her face made her eyes turn red, and she glared at Shangguan Wanning angrily.
"You don't know? Well, let me remind you."
Shangguan Wanning was also driven to anger. "Shangguan Xiaoxiao, you also have the surname Shangguan, and you also have my father's blood in your veins. Now, when the situation is changing, you actually betrayed him at the critical moment?"
Shangguan Xiaoxiao simply stopped pretending and threw away the quilt. She was already dressed.
She got out of bed in a rage and confronted Shangguan Wanning face to face.
"Is my last name Shangguan? Do I have my father's blood in my veins? You are talking about yourself. From childhood to adulthood, when have I ever enjoyed the same treatment as you? My father gave all his love to you and your daughter."
"You have been loved and pampered since you were young. You always feel superior and give me a little bit of your extra love and care. And you want me to be grateful? Ugh! I will never forget that it was you who forced my mother to death."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao glared at Shangguan Wanning and snorted contemptuously.
"From the moment my mother died, he is no longer my father. I want to avenge my mother, and the first person I want to kill is him."
Shangguan Wanning secretly clenched her fists. She felt that she was still too soft-hearted towards her half-sister.
If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have given her the chance to follow Xiao Zhenting and leave the capital.
"Do you think you can do it?" Shangguan Wanning looked at her coldly.
"Hmph." Shangguan Xiaoxiao snorted heavily, "Shangguan Wanning, there's no need to bluff anymore. Your father's life or death is uncertain, and your two lovers are in danger. This time, I want to see who can help you."
Shangguan Wanning smiled slightly and sat down on the chair calmly.
"I never said that I needed their help. Shangguan Xiaoxiao, I'll give you one last chance. Tell me clearly what Xiao Zhenting will do next. Maybe I can leave you a decent death."
"I should be the one saying this to you..." Shangguan Xiaoxiao hadn't finished her words when she felt her cheeks getting hot and her whole body becoming scorching.
A wave of fear surged in her heart.
"Shangguan Wanning, what did you do to me?"
"It's nothing, you won't die." Shangguan Wanning looked at Shangguan Xiaoxiao with a smile, "It's just that it won't be long before you lose your mind and take off your clothes and run out. Don't worry, I have already told the gatekeeper that they will stop you from looking for a man outside."
"you……"
Shangguan Xiaoxiao's face suddenly turned pale. "Shangguan Wanning, you are too despicable."
"I am much better than a beast like you who doesn't even let go of his own father."
Shangguan Xiaoxiao felt hotter and hotter. She tried her best to endure it, but her breathing was still rapid and she couldn't control the urge to tear off her clothes.
"Just enjoy it slowly."
Shangguan Wan Ning stood up and left.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao was worried that she would really end up like Shangguan Wanning said, so she immediately asked the nanny beside her to tie her up.
She felt as if her whole body was on fire, her clothes were soaked with sweat, and gradually, her body began to ache.
This pain seemed to radiate from her bones, making her feel like she was dying.
She persisted for half an hour and had already exhausted half of her life.
Shangguan Wan Ning secretly calculated the time and finished her breakfast calmly. Shangguan Xiaoxiao finally couldn't help it and went to her room with the help of Nanny Zhang.
"Sister... I know I was wrong... Please let me go... Sister..."
Shangguan Wanning didn't want to waste time. Looking at Shangguan Xiaoxiao, who was kneeling at her feet, she asked, "How many people did Xiao Zhenting arrange for him to return to Beijing this time? What is the situation on his side now? How many ministers in the court will support him?"
"I don't know..." Shangguan Xiaoxiao shook her head weakly.
"You don't know anything, so there's no need for me to waste my antidote."
Shangguan Wanning looked at Shangguan Xiaoxiao who was lying on the ground, without any ripples in her heart.
"Sister, I really don't know. He wouldn't tell me these... He just wanted me to stay at home and secretly monitor Dad and you. But... But I know that he captured your master..."
Shangguan Wanning's heart was beating faster and faster.
She pretended to be calm and said calmly: "He captured my master just to threaten me not to save the emperor. At this point, the emperor's life or death is meaningless to me. If you still can't tell me useful information, don't waste my time."
"I..." Shangguan Xiaoxiao was in so much pain that she almost didn't have the strength to speak, "I know where he locked your master up."
Shangguan Wanning was ecstatic.
She didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise after cleaning up the house.
"Really? Tell me about it."
"In the prison."
Sky prison?
Shangguan Wanning really didn't expect that Xiao Zhenting would lock his master up in the Sky Prison.
However, this is indeed a great place to collect.
If someone hadn't revealed it on purpose, she would never have dreamed of the Heavenly Prison.
"Write another letter to Xiao Zhenting and tell him that everything is normal and peaceful in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Shangguan Wanning threw down the antidote and impatiently signaled the maids to carry Shangguan Xiaoxiao out.
"Miss." Huo Gang came out from behind the screen. Seeing Shangguan Wanning's gloomy face, he said, "I'll go to the prison and rescue Doctor Lu."
"I don't know if she's telling the truth."
The Heavenly Prison is heavily guarded and filled with experts. It is already difficult to get in and out, let alone save people.
"Miss, whether it's true or not, we have to give it a try. I just received news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has begun planning a mutiny."
Shangguan Wanning was not surprised at all by this matter.
At this point, Xiao Yujue's only way out is to raise an army and seize power.
Otherwise, you can only wait for death.
"Miss, I heard that... General Mu forced himself to come out and gather his subordinates..."
Shangguan Wanning's heart ached deeply.
Mu Jingrui's body is already overloaded. If he were to continue commanding battles day and night, it would be tantamount to asking him to commit suicide.
But if he doesn't show up, those who follow him will have concerns.
"Brother Huo, thank you for going to the prison. Right now, I can't find anyone more trustworthy than you. You can choose any man that can be mobilized in the palace. No matter what, I will remember this favor in my heart."
"Miss, you are too polite." Huo Gang was a little worried and reminded, "It's a mess outside and the situation is unclear. Miss, it's best not to go out. It's safest to stay in the mansion. As for other matters, we can discuss it when I come back."
