If... if what Shi Wuqing said was true, then what did I do?
She was trying her best to protect Ling Ling, herself, and the entire Shi family, but what about him?
He knew nothing, and just because of his own difficult emotions, he treated her like that...
"Qingqing..." After opening his mouth several times, Shi Yu finally called out the name he used to call his sister: "I'm sorry."
Shi Wuqing shook her head gently: "You have nothing to apologize for, I understand."
Yes, she understands it all.
She was very smart and saw her future clearly early on.
Perhaps at the moment she made the decision, she had already thought that she would be treated so cruelly and mercilessly by her brother in the future.
If Yu Yongning had come a little later, he might have really killed the other person in a rage.
Shi Yu squatted down and wanted to check her injuries, but the hand he just stretched out was ruthlessly waved away by the other person.
"Master Shi shouldn't have lost his memory, right?" The murderous man picked up his sister and looked down at him with his eyes lowered. "Qingqing's injuries are all your fault."
"..." Shi Yu was speechless, but soon, he glared at the other person: "Yu Yongning! What do you mean? No matter what, my sister is now the Princess of Qi. You are an outsider, hugging her like this, what is your intention?"
Yu Yongning sneered and kicked Shi Yu!
Shi Wuqing was frightened by his sudden action: "Don't! Brother!"
Shi Yu had not expected that his mood was completely disturbed by Shi Wuqing's words just now, and his guard against Yu Yongning had also decreased. Who knew that this man would suddenly attack him!
He only had time to block with his wrist, and the huge force made him take several steps back. Combined with the two falls before, his internal organs began to ache!
"Puff!" Shi Yu directly spat out a mouthful of blood!
Yu Yongning raised the corners of his eyes and looked at him coldly: "You owe Qingqing this."
Shi Wuqing pushed Yu Yongning anxiously: "Let me go...let me go! Don't touch my brother, it has nothing to do with you!"
Her strength was too weak, and Yu Yongning didn't even feel it, but her resistance still made him very uncomfortable.
He lowered his head and warned, "You'd better not move. Don't forget, I have the upper hand over you now."
“…” Shi Wuqing’s expression froze.
When Shi Yu heard her calling out "brother" in such a desperate manner, he felt his breath was bitter.
He treated her like that, but she still cared about him and worried about him...
Shi Yu clenched his fists tightly, the anger in his eyes like a volcano about to erupt: "Yu Yongning, you are the prince of Yu State, and have nothing to do with Xia State. Why do you care about Xia State's affairs? What do you want to do?"
"What do I want?" Yu Yongning's gaze fell on Shi Wuqing. He opened his thin lips slightly and was about to speak, even though he knew that Shi Wuqing would not like what he said at the moment.
However, just when he was about to say it, he suddenly saw the girl's moist eyes and her pale face stained with blood.
Her eyes were filled with worry for Shi Yu, as well as sadness and sorrow that could not be concealed.
Yu Yongning paused and suddenly couldn't say anything.
He said calmly: "What I want, I will naturally get."
Then he called out again, "Shi Wuqing."
Shi Wuqing didn't say anything, but looked at him quietly with a vigilant look.
"You don't have to be wary of me. I have no ill will towards you. Since you married Qi Luan to protect the Shi family, does that mean you don't like him? Then now is a good time to leave. How about I take you away?"
"leave?"
"Yes." Yu Yongning said, "You escaped the assassination attempt tonight. Only Shi Yu knows your situation. I can help you fake your death. As long as Shi Yu testifies to your death, no one will doubt it. As for tonight's banquet, the Shi family has severed all ties with you. Even if you die, the Shi family will not be implicated by Prince Qi's Mansion in the future."
This does sound like a good idea.
Shi Wuqing died tonight, and no one would suspect that she faked her own death. The sudden assassination was the best cover.
Anyway, her goal of severing the relationship between the Shangshu Mansion and Prince Qi has been achieved.
If she died now, she would only be known as Princess Qi Shi Shuling. After her death, no one would be able to know the truth that she was Shi Wuqing.
Even Shi Yu, who didn't trust Yu Yongning, was moved.
After knowing the truth, he absolutely didn't want to watch Shi Wuqing go to her death alone. He wanted to save her. She... was also his sister.
If Shi Shuling was the only sister in his heart before, and the other concubines were just sisters on the surface, then now, he truly regarded Shi Wuqing as the sister he cared about.
"It's none of your business! But, Qingqing, you can indeed leave now..." Shi Yu looked at Shi Wuqing, wanting to hear her opinion.
Although the suggestion was made by Yu Yongning, his help is not necessarily needed. He can also help his sister complete the plan of faking her death!
Shi Wuqing was dumbfounded when he heard Yu Yongning's idea.
Oh my god, if she leaves now, what will happen to the plot in the future?
She also has to play the vicious female supporting role in front of the heroine!
Shi Wuqing said silently: "No, no... I can't leave now."
"Why?"
"Are you in love with Prince Qi?"
Two voices sounded at the same time.
"No," Shi Wuqing glanced at Yu Yongning, "I don't like Prince Qi, but... I can't leave yet. Prince Qi promised mother that day that he would save father, but today at the banquet, mother directly asked the emperor to sever ties with Prince Qi's mansion and me. I'm afraid that Prince Qi will be angry and not save father."
