Chapter 26 Climbing up to the King of Qi
"You said this poem was given to you by Su Yuheng?" Yan Ning looked at her coldly.
Liu Jinshu shook his head. "No, I saw it from Sister Yuheng's room. She must have wanted to use this poem to pass it off as her own for the competition, but... I saw it."
Upon hearing this, Liu was almost angered by Liu Jinshu and fainted.
She looked at Liu Jinshu viciously and slapped her hard in the face.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could it be Yuheng?"
Now Su Yuheng is still a member of the Su family on the surface. Not only did Liu Jinshu steal the poem himself, but after being exposed, he also wanted to drag Su Yuheng into the water.
Isn't it obvious that they want to push the entire Dingbei Marquis Mansion into the fire pit?
Liu Jinshu gritted her teeth, put her hands over her red cheeks, and choked out a sob, "Aunt, I saw this poem in Sister Yuheng's room. Could it be fake? If it wasn't her, who else could it be?"
"This poem is in her room!"
"This is absolute nonsense!" Just at this moment, Princess Chaoyang appeared in everyone's sight.
Liu and Liu Jinshu looked up and saw Princess Chaoyang coming towards them with two maids.
Princess Chaoyang walked up to Liu Jinshu and glanced sideways at Princess Yanning.
"Aunt, this Liu Jinshu is Sister Yuheng's cousin. Not only did she imitate Sister Yuheng's makeup and hairstyle, but she even copied her manners and movements. Now she's shamelessly stealing poems to compete with me. It's ridiculous!"
As soon as Princess Chaoyang finished speaking, some ladies sitting in the women's seats began to make sarcastic remarks.
"I was wondering why this girl's hairstyle and clothing look so much like Miss Su Si."
"So he's a scholarly shrew. Not only did he steal poems for the competition, but he even tried to drag his cousin into it."
Liu knelt on the ground, holding the hem of her skirt tightly.
At this moment, she even wanted to kill Liu Jinshu.
She never thought that Liu Jinshu had been raised in Yongzhou for so many years and had really become a fool!
She asked her to follow Su Yuheng and imitate her, but she did not ask her to steal poems for competition.
What’s more important is that he couldn’t steal anyone else’s poems, so he chose to steal the poems of the retired emperor.
This clearly offended the emperor.
The punishment could be exile at the very least and capital punishment at the worst.
Even the entire Dingbei Marquis Mansion will be implicated by her.
Liu knelt on the ground, trembling all over. She didn't know how His Majesty would punish the Su family.
Just as she was thinking, she heard Princess Chaoyang continue, "Sister Yuheng and I are close friends. She once told me that the person she admires most in her life is the Emperor's grandfather. She said that when he was young, he won many battles and was diligent in his work and loved his people, which laid the foundation for Great Yan. So she borrowed his poems from me and read them carefully."
She swept a cold gaze over Liu Jinshu and said sarcastically, "I didn't expect that Liu Jinshu would not only imitate her, but also think that this poem was written by Sister Yuheng, so he stole it to compete with her."
"Why don't you tell the truth?" Princess Yan Ning's cold voice came, and Liu Jinshu trembled all over.
Now that the evidence is irrefutable, she can only accept her fate. Otherwise, if she continues to quibble like this, she might die in this princess's mansion today.
She prostrated herself on the ground, trembling, and said, "Reporting to the Princess, I did see this poem in Sister Yuheng's room, but I didn't know it was written by the current Emperor when he was young."
"It's just... I just thought this poem was well-written, so I wanted to borrow some from it."
"Borrow from it?" Princess Yan Ning sneered.
"You are a fraud. You have offended my father and committed a grave offense!"
Liu knelt on the ground, looking at Princess Yan Ning pleadingly, and said, "Princess, it was my aunt who failed to teach Jinshu well when she first came to Yanjing. Now she has caused such a great disaster. Please have mercy on her."
Princess Yan Ning said coldly, "This matter is not decided by me, but by my father."
"It is inconvenient to see blood today during the Spring Feast. After the Spring Feast, you will bring your niece to my father and confess your guilt in person. Whether to execute or exile is entirely up to my father."
Liu knelt on the ground, and only when she heard Princess Yan Ning say this did she see a glimmer of hope in her heart.
She had secretly planned something with Princess Yan Ning, so they were in the same boat.
Now that Liu Jinshu has committed such a big mistake, she did not have anyone send Liu Jinshu to the Sky Prison immediately, which proves that the eldest princess gave her and Liu Jinshu a chance.
She immediately kowtowed and said, "After today's Spring Festival Banquet, I will bring this letter to the Emperor to personally apologize. Whether I live or die is entirely up to the Emperor."
——
As dusk approached, the Spring Banquet had not yet ended.
Because Liu had to discuss some private matters with Princess Yan Ning, she did not return to the Marquis' Mansion, so she could only wait for the Spring Banquet to end with Liu Jinshu.
Liu Jinshu lost face at the Spring Banquet today and was too embarrassed to wait at the women's table.
She entered the peach forest feeling somewhat lost. The more she thought about today's events, the more she felt something was wrong.
Why did Su Yuheng want to read the poems of the retired emperor for no reason?
After the Spring Banquet, she would be taken by Liu to the retired emperor to plead guilty. It was still unknown whether she would live or die, or whether she would be exiled or executed.
She had to find a way to survive.
Liu Jinshu was thinking about continuing to walk into the peach forest, but he didn't notice that there was a man in black behind him.
As soon as she turned around, the man in black jumped towards her like a ghost and knocked her unconscious.
In the dimly lit room, you can still hear the faint sound of dripping water.
Liu Jinshu woke up in a daze and felt a sullen aura coming towards her.
She could hear heavy breathing and the sound of clothes being torn, and she could also smell a strange fragrance between her nostrils.
She tried her best to open her eyes, and heard a man's voice drilling into her eardrums.
"Miss Su Si, after today you will be my woman."
"Don't worry, I will make you a real woman today."
Liu Jinshu suddenly opened his eyes and met a pair of scarlet eyes.
She subconsciously shrank back and saw clearly that the man in front of her was the King of Qi who was sitting in the men's seat today.
At this moment, the King of Qi's eyes were red, his face was distorted, and he was breathing heavily.
He reached out roughly and tore her clothes off.
Could it be the Chinese medicine? Was she drugged and mistook her for Su Yuheng?
Why is everything related to Su Yuheng?
Everything she suffered today was because of Su Yuheng.
She shrank back, but the King of Qi became more and more aggressive.
Liu Jinshu looked at the mad man and was a little confused for a moment.
The status and position of the man in front of her were beyond her reach.
Thinking of this, Liu Jinshu suddenly came up with an idea.
Rather than being exiled or hanged, it is better to climb up the high branch of King Qi.
The King of Qi may be her last straw.
She untied her belt, revealing her graceful body.
Then he knelt before the King of Qi and spoke flattering words.
"Your Highness, Prince Qi, I am here to serve you."
The King of Qi was drugged and was in a daze. He had no idea that the woman in front of him was not Su Yuheng.
"Come, serve this king."
Liu Jinshu raised the corners of his lips slightly, knelt on the ground flatteringly, and moved towards the crotch of King Qi.
"Your Highness, I will serve you to your satisfaction."
Although she was raised in Yongzhou, she has been playful since childhood. Although she is not married, she has learned a lot of bed skills and knows how to please men.
