After the banquet, Sheng Yunrong said to Tu Subo, "Subo, what did you find out?"
Tu Subo said in a deep voice: "Miss, the man in black who attacked you this time is Sheng Yunjiao's subordinate. She really wants to kill you."
Sheng Yunrong sneered: "Sheng Yunjiao, you are really courting death. I, Sheng Yunrong, will make you pay the price!"
Sheng Yunrong was supported by Tu Subo and returned to Sheng Mansion. The silence along the way made her feel heavy. She looked at the gate of Sheng Mansion, and a glimmer of determination flashed in her eyes. She knew that she couldn't go on like this, and she needed to cheer up.
"Miss Sheng, are you okay?" Tu Subo asked with concern, his eyes full of worry.
Sheng Yunrong shook her head and forced a smile: "I'm fine, just a little tired."
Tu Subo looked at Sheng Yunrong's smile, but he became more worried.
In the hall of Sheng Mansion, Sheng Yunrong's father, Master Sheng, saw Sheng Yunrong coming back, and hurried over and asked, "Rong'er, what's wrong with you?"
Sheng Yunrong looked at her father, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes, she forced a smile and said, "Father, I'm fine, just a little tired."
Master Sheng looked at Sheng Yunrong's smile, but he knew in his heart that his daughter must have encountered some difficulties. He looked at Tu Subo with a questioning look in his eyes.
Tu Subo nodded slightly. He knew that he needed to tell Master Sheng about Sheng Yunrong's situation.
"Master Sheng, Miss Sheng..." Tu Subo was interrupted by Sheng Yunrong before he could finish his words.
"Su Bo, don't say anything." Sheng Yunrong's eyes were full of determination. She didn't want to make her father worry.
Master Sheng looked at Sheng Yunrong's eyes and confirmed his thoughts. He looked at Tu Subo with gratitude in his eyes.
"Miss Sheng, I think we should do this..." Tu Subo was talking about his plan.
Sheng Yunrong listened to Tu Subo's plan, but she was a little hesitant. She looked at Tu Subo with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Su Bo, is it really okay to do this?" Sheng Yunrong asked.
Tu Subo looked at Sheng Yunrong's doubts, but his mind became more resolute. He looked at Sheng Yunrong, with a glimmer of determination in his eyes.
"Miss Sheng, I believe that doing this will definitely solve the Sheng family's difficulties." Tu Subo said affirmatively.
Sheng Yunrong looked at Tu Subo's determination, and her heart was slightly moved. She looked at Tu Subo, and a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes.
"Su Bo, thank you." Sheng Yunrong said.
Tu Subo looked at Sheng Yunrong's gratitude, but he felt a little embarrassed. He looked at Sheng Yunrong, with a hint of shyness in his eyes.
"Miss Sheng, this is what I should do," said Tu Subo.
…
Sheng Yunrong's stomach churned and she quickly ran to the side, holding onto the wall and vomiting. Pei Jinxiao frowned and hurried over, handing her a handkerchief and whispering, "Miss Sheng, are you okay?"
Sheng Yunrong shook her head, her face pale, but she managed a smile: "It's okay, maybe I ate something wrong and I feel a little uncomfortable."
Pei Jinxiao couldn't help but feel a little pity for her when she looked like this, so he said, "Then I'll go see the doctor with you."
Sheng Yunrong nodded slightly, and with the help of Jinxiao, she slowly left the banquet.
In the back garden of Sheng Mansion, flowers are in full bloom, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. Sheng Yunrong and Pei Jinxiao walked side by side on the path, each in silence, as if they were both thinking about something.
"Miss Sheng, what do you think of this banquet?" Pei Jinxiao suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.
Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly and said, "Prince Pei, what do you think?"
Pei Jinxiao smiled faintly: "I am just an outsider, how dare I make any comments. However, I think the guests of Sheng Mansion seem to be having a lot of fun."
Sheng Yunrong sighed softly and said, "This banquet was originally held to celebrate the victory of the Western Wei over the enemy, implying national peace. However, now it seems that everyone is focusing on having fun."
Pei Jinxiao's eyes narrowed as he looked at Sheng Yunrong and said, "Miss Sheng, do you think this is normal?"
Sheng Yunrong pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps this is human nature. When people are in a comfortable environment, they will gradually relax their vigilance and pursue pleasure. However, I hope that this comfort will not make us lose our fighting spirit and forget the suffering we once experienced."
Pei Jinxiao nodded and said, "Miss Sheng is right. I am also worried that if this continues, the Western Wei will fall into a quagmire of comfort and will be unable to extricate itself."
Sheng Yunrong's face changed, she hurriedly said goodbye to Pei Jinxiao, and rushed back to Sheng Mansion.
In the west wing of the Sheng Mansion, Sheng Yunrong pushed the door open and walked in, only to see the second young lady of the Sheng Mansion, Sheng Yirong, lying on the bed, her face pale and her eyes closed. Xiaoyue was anxiously guarding the bedside, and when she saw Sheng Yunrong coming in, she stood up quickly and said, "Miss, the second young lady..."
Sheng Yunrong walked quickly to the bedside, held Sheng Yirong's hand, and called softly: "Yirong, what's wrong with you? Wake up."
Sheng Yirong slowly opened her eyes and saw Sheng Yunrong. She forced a smile from the corner of her mouth: "Sister, I'm fine. Maybe I ate too much just now and I feel a little uncomfortable."
Sheng Yunrong breathed a sigh of relief, patted Sheng Yirong's shoulder gently, and said, "You should take care of yourself and don't make your sister worry anymore."
Sheng Yirong nodded, and Sheng Yunrong asked Xiaoyue to call a doctor.
At this time, Pei Jinxiao also learned the news that Sheng Yirong had fainted, and rushed to visit her. Seeing that Sheng Yirong was fine, his worries gradually dissipated.
Sheng Yunrong saw Pei Jinxiao coming in and smiled, "Prince Pei, thank you for your concern. Yirong is fine now."
Pei Jinxiao nodded and said, "That's good. Miss Sheng, you should take good care of your health. After all, the safety of the Sheng family depends on you."
Sheng Yunrong smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, Lord Pei, we will take good care of ourselves."
Pei Jinxiao said goodbye to Sheng Yunrong with a smile and left the Sheng Mansion.
Sheng Yunrong vomited a lot and her face was as pale as paper. Pei Jinxiao frowned when he saw this and immediately ordered the servants to bring clean water and towels to clean her himself. Sheng Yunrong panted heavily and forced a grateful smile, whispering, "Thank you, Prince Jing, for your concern."
Pei Jinxiao shook his head slightly, and said with concern: "Miss Sheng, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Sheng Yunrong forced a smile and said lightly, "It's just that I ate the wrong thing. Thank you, Prince Jing, for your concern."
Pei Jinxiao looked at her with a hint of worry in his eyes, but he didn't ask any more questions. He knew Sheng Yunrong was a strong-willed woman, and if she didn't want to talk, he wouldn't get anything out of her.
At this time, the housekeeper of the Sheng Mansion rushed over. Seeing Sheng Yunrong in such a state, he hurriedly asked: "Miss, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Sheng Yunrong shook her head and forced a smile, "It's nothing, I just ate the wrong thing, thank you for your concern."
The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief, but still couldn't help but remind her: "Miss, you must take good care of yourself. If you feel unwell, tell the servants in time and don't force yourself."
Sheng Yunrong nodded, she understood. Pei Jinxiao looked at her, but he became more and more confused. He knew that Sheng Yunrong was not a person who didn't know her limits, and she must have her reasons for being so stubborn.
