Su Wanshi looked up with delight, thinking that Su Liluo had accepted the skin cream out of politeness.
But when he looked up, he saw the haughty face of Princess Changning.
"The beauty cream from Nan Chen? Such a wonderful product, it's really ungrateful of the Crown Princess not to accept it. Why not give it to me, the Princess? I'll pay you how much."
Princess Changning picked up the bottle of skin cream with great interest.
She had been looking at it upstairs for a while, and when she heard that it was Nan Chen's skin cream, she was quite interested.
She had previously seen the Imperial Concubine in the palace use Nan Chen's skin cream once, and after using it, her skin became so smooth and radiant.
However, she couldn't find it in many shops in Daliang.
Each time, it was either out of stock or bought up by nobles in the palace.
"No, Princess, this was given to the Crown Princess by my second aunt!"
Su Wanshi instinctively refused.
But to everyone's surprise, Princess Changning's face immediately turned ugly.
She frowned slightly, a hint of anger in her voice: "Didn't you see that even the Crown Princess didn't want it? What, you don't want to give it to me, this princess?"
"No, that's not what I meant, Princess. Please don't misunderstand. It's just that my second aunt repeatedly told me to give it to the Crown Princess!"
Seeing that Princess Changning had misunderstood, Su Wanshi quickly explained.
Watching Su Liluo's figure disappear into the shop, and feeling bitter because her things had been taken away by Princess Changning, she was filled with unbearable sorrow.
"Since you don't have it, I'll take this. Is fifty taels of silver enough?"
Changning held the skin cream in her hand with obvious delight, showing no intention of returning it to her.
"No, Your Highness, this skin cream is too rough. If you like it, I'll have my second aunt send you a better one another day!"
"No need, this is all I want. Someone bring me fifty taels of silver! If it's less, just send someone to ask me for it again!"
Su Wanshi wanted to get her things back, but Princess Changning wouldn't listen to her at all.
After instructing her servants to give her the money, she left with a beaming smile, carrying the skin cream.
Su Wanshi could only curse inwardly, "What a busybody! You'll have to suffer the consequences if you end up with a ruined face!"
Anyway, they had already made arrangements for their escape route and found a scapegoat, saying that the skin cream was bought from him.
They are simply being deceived.
*
Su Liluo was unaware that the skin cream had fallen into the hands of Princess Changning. It was only a few days later that she learned from Xiao Ye that Princess Changning's face had become ravaged.
It is said that Princess Changning immediately went to the Su residence to make a scene, but the Su family claimed that they had also been deceived and even found out who had deceived them.
As a result, the scapegoat was reported to the authorities by Princess Changning and thrown into prison.
Princess Changning invited many doctors, even the imperial physicians, but none of them could cure her face.
Now, Princess Changning is constantly raging in her residence because her face has been disfigured, and she refuses to go out.
Upon hearing this, the maid Ranmei couldn't help but sigh, "This retribution really comes quickly! Just a few days ago, this princess was being so arrogant and mocking the Crown Princess!"
Su Liluo remained silent, only raising an eyebrow and smiling.
Suddenly, he noticed Xiao Ye's probing gaze fixed on him.
Su Liluo asked in confusion, "Why is Your Highness looking at me like that?"
Xiao Ye withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Wasn't that skin cream from the Su family originally meant for you?"
"You guessed that!"
Su Liluo did not deny it.
Although Xiao Ye had suspected this for a long time, seeing Su Liluo admit it so naturally, he couldn't help but feel angry for her.
This Su family really thinks she's easy to bully!
They even thought of sending her poison!
Unconsciously, a flash of fierceness crossed his eyes.
Do you want the Su family to disappear?
Suddenly, Xiao Ye spoke up and asked.
"disappear?"
Su Liluo looked at him in surprise.
She had already sensed that Xiao Ye harbored murderous intent towards the Su family.
However, Xiao Ye no longer holds real power. After becoming disabled, he lost his previous control over the army.
Now, even the emperor has grown tired of him, and he no longer needs to attend court.
It can be said that his status as crown prince was merely a facade, good only for using others to intimidate him.
But if it's really about accomplishing something big, I'm afraid we don't have that capability yet!
However, looking at Xiao Ye's eyes, Su Liluo felt that if he dared to say that, he must have the ability!
In his past life, even without Qin Shuang and himself to detoxify him, he was able to live for so long. His Highness the Crown Prince must be someone extraordinary.
"No need. The harm they've done to me is too good for them; simply making them disappear would be too easy for them!"
After thinking it over, Su Liluo still refused.
Even if she suspected Xiao Ye had the ability, she didn't want her enemies to die so easily.
Xiao Ye didn't make things difficult for her.
Instead, he comforted her, saying, "If you encounter any trouble, just tell me in the future. Although I am a crippled crown prince, I am still a crown prince!"
"Yes, thank you!"
Su Lilu smiled faintly.

Ever since Su Wanshi's attempt to deliver the skin cream failed, she and Jiang Qinshu had been thinking of other ways to do it while they were at home.
They also sent Su Xuanlang and Su Chenfeng to deliver things to Su Liluo, but neither of them were able to get through the gates of the Crown Prince's residence.
When Su Chenfeng returned, he also cursed and swore at Su Liluo.
When Madam Su saw her youngest grandson return from outside in a huff, she immediately went up to ask him what was wrong with him.
"Oh dear, my dear grandson, what happened to make you so angry!"
Su Chenfeng pouted and began to complain, "Grandmother, it's all because of that Su Liluo! She's so ungrateful! Last time at the plum blossom banquet, she slandered Mother's reputation, and Mother even made us deliver things to comfort her!"
