Chapter 177 Lively (4)
Did he harbor murderous intentions towards him simply because he didn't accept his feelings? Fu Xiuyi was somewhat stunned. What surprised him even more was that he actually felt that murderous intention was full of threats?
Could this be his illusion?
When he looked at Shen Miao again, the latter had already turned around and was saying something to Feng An Ning.
A hint of murderous intent flashed across Shen Miao's eyes. For so long, even in the inspection field, she had only met Fu Xiuyi from a distance. She didn't want to meet Fu Xiuyi so closely because she was afraid that once she got close to Fu Xiuyi, she would not be able to conceal her overwhelming hatred!
Jiang Xiaoxuan's provocative words were passed by Shen Miao's two inexplicable chuckles. Her first chuckle was complicated, and the second chuckle was slightly cold, but even a fool could see that there was no affection or friendship for Fu Xiuyi in it! After laughing twice, she simply spoke directly to the girl beside her. The contempt and disregard she showed made it hard to tell whether it was intentional or not.
But the atmosphere was eventually cooled down by her.
A glint flashed in King Zhou's eyes, and he smiled as he approached Fu Xiuyi and said, "Ninth brother, it seems you are not so invincible after all."
Fu Xiuyi smiled bitterly, but in his heart he gradually began to pay more attention to Shen Miao.
"Hey, it seems that the fifth daughter of the Shen family has quite a bit of courage." Su Mingfeng said with interest. Now that his "serious illness" has improved a lot, he still cannot work hard, so his official position has not been reinstated.
"Sister Shen is very nice." Su Minglang rolled his eyes at him.
Pei Lang lowered his head and took a sip of tea, his eyes flashing with deep thought.
Just as they were silent for a while, they heard a hearty and loud laugh: "Haha, everyone, you're late!"
That mountain-like figure, who else could it be but Shen Xin? Following closely behind Shen Xin was Shen Qiu. Seeing this important figure arrive, the officials all greeted him. Shen Xin exchanged greetings with the Zhou King and the others before taking their seats. He and Shen Qiu had missed out on the wonderful show just now. Otherwise, even if Shen Xin hadn't made a move, Shen Qiu, regardless of whether he would show any sympathy or not, would have definitely made Jiang Xiaoxuan suffer.
After Shen Xin arrived, the three people from Prince Li and the three people from the Crown Prince also arrived one after another. The Crown Prince was frail, but the Crown Princess was dignified and majestic. Shen Miao glanced at the Crown Princess and her eyes were moved.
The Crown Princess's family had the support of the Prime Minister, and the Crown Prince had originally relied on her influence to secure his position. Later, when the Crown Princess became pregnant, Emperor Wenhui, fearing the Crown Prince would become seriously ill, would only further the Crown Princess's family's monopoly of power, resorted to tactics to induce a miscarriage. The Crown Princess deeply loved the Prince, but she had no idea her husband would be so ruthless as to murder his own flesh and blood. She feared the consequences of informing her family, leading to her death. Three years after the Crown Princess's death, the Prime Minister's household learned the truth and sought revenge for their daughter, but ultimately turned to Fu Xiuyi...
Shen Miao looked at the cups in front of her. Every member of the Fu family was cruel and ruthless, and all the men in the Fu family were ungrateful and unfaithful. She and the Crown Princess were no different. Both were victims of the power struggle and an innocent abandoned child.
Now, she wants to be the chess player. Anyone who wants to play chess must be prepared to make sacrifices!
After the Crown Princess took her seat, her former friends from before her marriage began chatting and laughing with her. As for the male relatives, Prince Yu also arrived.
When Prince Yu arrived, everyone at the female banquet fell silent, especially the young girls, who turned pale with fear.
In previous years, Prince Yu would not attend the annual banquets. For so many years, he had completely ignored the affairs of the court. Therefore, the naturally suspicious Emperor Wenhui was particularly tolerant of his younger brother. This was certainly due to Prince Yu's sacrifice of his life in his youth, but if Prince Yu had not been so quiet and detached from the affairs of the court for so many years, even the great life-saving grace would not have been able to overcome Emperor Wenhui's suspicion. After all, Emperor Wenhui's brothers had all died at his hands.
