Chen Heng didn't have time to talk to them tonight. She saw Min Yuqing talking to Madam Wu not far away and was about to take Mrs. Peng over when Liu Zhiyue and Liu Xinyue came over.
A greeting.
Liu Zhiyue didn't even glance at Mrs. Peng. She just looked at Chen Heng and said with a smile, "Chen Heng, as the mistress, won't you take us to visit your garden?"
Seeing that she was being ignored, Mrs. Peng almost lost the smile on her face.
Chen Heng responded and said to Peng in a gentle voice, "Yuqing is over there. Don't you want to talk to her? I'll be here in a moment."
Mrs. Peng nodded, bowed to Liu Zhiyue and left.
Seeing that Mrs. Peng ignored her, Liu Xinyue sighed in her heart. She had just told Zhiyue that she had been getting along with Mrs. Peng all the time. She had to give each other the considerations. How could she and Mrs. Peng continue to be friends in the future?
"Young lady." A maid from Prince Qing's mansion hurried over to report, "The princess wants you to come over. She wants to meet some ladies."
Liu Xinyue had a headache. As soon as she heard it, she knew that her mother was going to introduce her to another young talent, so she had to leave first.
"Come walk with me." Liu Zhiyue walked towards the gravel path beside her.
Along the way, ladies would bow to Liu Zhiyue from time to time, and Shen Heng, who was accompanying her, had to bow her head from time to time as a gesture of respect.
"I never thought that there would be such a day for Xie Jian." Liu Zhiyue sneered.
"How is the county lady doing in Yuezhou?" Chen Heng asked with a smile.
"Of course it is."
"The county lady is a blessed person, and she will become more and more blessed in the future." Chen Heng said sincerely.
Liu Zhiyue glanced at her and said, "I know what you mean. What happened in the past is over. But every time I see Xie Jian, I think of how he killed me, and I feel hatred in my heart."
Shen Heng was silent for a moment, then asked, "Don't you know what kind of people Li Dou and Li Sheng are?"
A trace of embarrassment suddenly flashed across Liu Zhiyue's face. She had been in the Xie family for two years, how could she not know? Even if she didn't know, half a year of getting along was enough for her to know.
"Without Xie Jian's scheme, if these two or someone else had tried to get you to elope, you would still have gone." Chen Heng was certain of this. She hadn't said it before because she was concerned about Liu Zhiyue's tolerance. Now, she thought she could accept such straightforwardness: "It's just that Xie Jian's scheme gave you an excuse to justify your behavior. Liu Zhiyue, do you really resent Xie Jian's scheme, or do you resent that your decision to elope has become a stain on your life?"
Chen Heng stopped and met Liu Zhiyue's beautiful eyes filled with anger.
Every time I think about the impulse when I was young, I regret it, and every time I think about it, I can't let it go. In the end, it becomes a heart disease.
"Liu Zhiyue, don't forget those maids who were beaten to death by Princess Ning because of you when you were plotting against me." She didn't mention her affairs. Her glass heart was bulletproof. As the wife of the Si family, one of the most powerful families, Shen Heng knew that Liu Zhiyue's path was not easy. "In the future, you will do many things to scheme against others, just like Xie Jian did to you. You may even be more cruel and vicious than him."
Liu Zhiyue turned her eyes away and looked at somewhere in the darkness. There was no need to look back. She had already done many things to scheme against others and even indirectly killed people, but she did it to protect herself and to make herself live longer.
"Or rather, you have already started." Chen Heng said.
