“They brought it on themselves, you don’t need to feel guilty.” Zhao Shu gently patted her back. She had always known that there was a lot of trouble in the big mansion, but she didn’t expect there to be so much. The Wang family had a small population and had not suffered so much. Now that she thought about it, she was much happier than Sun Yun.
There was no wicked grandmother, no so many rules and regulations, and no one would use the word "filial piety" to humiliate her.
"Okay, I don't feel guilty. I just felt a bit upset that I couldn't let out. Crying made me feel much better. Let's go. I bet you have a lot of things to do. What a coincidence, I have too." She said casually, and Zhao Shu smiled in agreement.
Upon hearing the cries, two men and a woman emerged from the bamboo grove and knelt before her on one knee. "Miss, you have been rescued. We have come to ask if you wish to be sent to Taizhou immediately?"
"Ma Fu, Ma Gui, you two escort my mother back to Taizhou. Don't let anyone know. Ma An, you stay here." Sun Yun wiped away her tears and immediately issued orders one by one.
Zhao Shu watched silently from the side. These people were all from the Ma family, the Ma family of Taizhou. Sun Yun's mother came from the Ma family of Taizhou. She had heard that the Ma family of Taizhou was as mysterious as the Miao shamans. Now that she saw that they were living half of the same family, she knew.
"Ah Yun, I'm leaving now." Zhao Shu saw Su Xiu waving to her in the distance, and without thinking too much, she called out and left in a hurry.
Just as she emerged from the long bamboo forest path, she saw servants from the Sun family carrying half a bundle of bamboo past her.
Not only Zhao Shu, but Xiao Guozi and the others were also frightened and took a few steps back. "How could someone die so suddenly? We just heard that a thief broke in, but we didn't expect it to be true. Who is so bold as to commit murder here?" A few young ladies who came to admire the flowers saw the bloody half-bouquet and turned pale with fright.
Xiao Zhuzi ran over, not even bothering to bow, and went up to Zhao Shu to report, "Princess, news came from Liangxi that the Tenth Prince was bitten by a poisonous snake while saving His Highness the Crown Prince, and he is still unconscious. The imperial physician said he is not going to make it."
"Let's go take a look." Zhao Shu snorted coldly, led the group along the nearest road, and hurried away.
On the way, Xiao Zhu continued to report in a low voice, "Liang Xi said that originally His Highness the Crown Prince was going to save our Prince, but unexpectedly a snake suddenly rushed out. When the Tenth Prince saw it, he stood in front of His Highness the Crown Prince and was bitten."
"What's going on?" Zhao Shu's steps quickened, her tone turning icy cold.
"Lord Xie suddenly foamed at the mouth, and everyone rushed him to Baoxia. They also summoned the imperial physician. Miss Xie rushed in looking very anxious, twisted her ankle, and was about to fall into the arms of our Prince. His Highness reached out to pull the Prince away, preventing him from catching Miss Xie, and that's how it happened."
