Chapter 57 Who is the one who casts the net?
At this time, in the Second Prince's Mansion.
Shangguan Nanfeng was in the study, looking at the book in his hands with a serious expression, but he didn't turn the page for a long time, and it was obvious that his mind was not on the book.
"Second Prince, a letter has been delivered from the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion." Qingzhu's voice came from outside the door. Shangguan Nanfeng frowned. Thinking of what happened during the day, Su Xin made him more and more angry.
She actually did that to him in public. If she wasn't the prime minister's daughter, he would have had her dragged out and chopped to pieces.
It has always been the case that he, who is noble, has the right to oppress others, and no one else has the right to oppress him.
Then Su Xin must be crazy. How dare he send a letter after such a short time?
"I don't want to see it. It's burned." Shangguan Nanfeng became more and more angry the more he thought about it, and he yelled twice at the door in annoyance.
"Yes." Qingzhu outside the door accepted the order and was about to turn around.
"Wait, bring it in." Shangguan Nanfeng suddenly thought that no normal person would take off clothes in public, let alone Su Xin, the prime minister's daughter.
Is it that you have found out something and want to explain it to yourself?
Thinking of the disdainful look Su Yue gave him when she left during the day, he felt inexplicably irritated.
Ever since he understood the relationship between men and women, every woman he liked always took the initiative to get close to him, but every time he got close to Su Yue, he only felt indifference and disgust.
That kind of genuine feeling of disgust couldn't be faked, so it was not possible that she was deliberately keeping him in suspense.
He just didn't understand. He had never seen her before, so why did she start to dislike him from the first time they met? He was a prince, was he really that incompetent?
Shangguan Nanfeng took the envelope and Qingzhu stepped back. With the help of the light, he could see the disposable sealing wax at a glance.
"Haha, you're being quite cautious." Shangguan Nanfeng complained before opening the letter.
After reading the letter, a hint of deep thought appeared in his peach blossom eyes. He held the letter in his right hand and subconsciously began to tap the desk rhythmically with his left hand.
"Knock knock knock..." The sound is not loud, but gradually becomes regular. One can feel the person knocking on the table's heart changing from irritability to calmness.
In the letter, Su Xin first talked about what happened to him during the day, which was most likely caused by being possessed by evil spirits, so he wrote a letter to apologize.
Also, Su Xin seemed to mention unintentionally that seven days later, he would take Su Yue to Yuanyin Temple to burn incense and exorcise evil spirits.
There were only these two things in the letter, and the main content was a sincere apology.
But Shangguan Nanfeng would never think that this was an ordinary apology letter. Su Xin seemed to have realized that he was interested in Su Yue.
And when she seemingly casually mentioned taking Su Yue to Yuanyin Temple, was she hinting that she could do something?
"The eldest lady of the Su family is really interesting." Shangguan Nanfeng whispered with a barely perceptible sneer.
This is a little trick between women. He could still see it.
Could it be that Su Xin thinks that she is a person who thinks with her lower body and has no brains, and that she, the second prince, must do whatever she wants?
Although Shangguan Nanfeng didn't know what Su Xin was trying to do, he knew it was definitely not a good thing.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Nanfeng's lips twitched slightly. He wanted to use him, but he didn't even consider his own abilities.
"Qingzhu." He spoke, calling Qingzhu who had been waiting outside the door.
Seeing Qingzhu coming in, Shangguan Nanfeng's deep eyes flashed with a hint of calculation. "Go and tell the Third Prince's residence that in seven days, this prince will invite you to go to Yuanyin Temple to pray for your mother."
He knew that if it was an ordinary reason, Shangguan Nanxing would definitely refuse. Only by using his mother's name would Shangguan Nanxing definitely come.
Thinking of how Shangguan Nanxing threatened his father with death in the Golden Palace to agree to Su Yue's request, he guessed that his third brother seemed to be interested in Su Yue.
"Also, find a few thugs who know some fighting skills, give them some money, and ask them to hijack the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion in seven days." Obviously, he still wanted to be a hero to save the beauty.
Since you want to play, why not go play together?
He must confirm Shangguan Nanxing's thoughts on this trip to Yuanyin Temple.
If what he guessed was correct, and his third brother had feelings for Su Yue, then Su Yue would be his most advantageous weapon in competing for the throne!
Shangguan Nanfeng picked up the bone china teacup that was warm enough beside him, took a sip, and let out a long sigh. His long peach blossom eyes were full of calculations.
The Third Prince’s Mansion.
Shangguan Nanxing, dressed in moon-white clothes, looked at Ruofeng who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word.
In the past few days, he asked Ruofeng to pay close attention to Su Yue's safety, after all, there was a flower thief ahead.
The black shadow that just disappeared from Su Yue was Ruofeng.
But when Ruofeng told him what had happened in the past few days, even Shangguan Nanxing, who was used to big scenes, was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
She poisoned Su Xin, outsmarted the assassin, and even turned the passive into active and made the assassin do things for her.
Su Yue in this life seems to be really different. She is no longer as easily deceived as in her previous life. Instead, she starts to deceive others.
So, does she still love Guan Nanfeng to her core like she did in her previous life?
"You go down and continue observing." After Shangguan Nanxing said this, Ruofeng disappeared like a ghost again.
He stood up gently and looked out the dark window, with an indelible sorrow in his eyes.
"Cough, cough, cough..." His throat began to itch unconsciously, and he couldn't help but cough twice.
Since when did my purpose of letting Ruofeng stay with Su Yue change? Originally, I wanted to protect Su Yue.
Now, the more I know about that girl, the more I want to understand her in detail. What happened in the past few days made him feel dazed, as if the Su Yue he knew in his previous life was not the real Su Yue.
Su Yue now is like a poisonous flower. Although you know it is dangerous, you still can't help wanting to get closer to it because of its beauty.
"Su Yue, Yue'er..." Shangguan Nanxing whispered her name, his tone filled with unremovable longing and tenderness.
"In this life, you will still choose Shangguan Nanfeng, right? In this life, do you still want to help Shangguan Nanfeng get the throne?" His voice was so low that even if someone stood in front of him, they could not hear his words clearly.
"Your Highness the Third Prince, the Second Prince sent someone to say that he would like to invite you to Yuanyin Temple to pray for your mother in seven days." A servant's announcement came from outside.
"Yuanyin Temple." Shangguan Nanxing narrowed her peach blossom eyes. It seemed that Yue'er might plan to go to Yuanyin Temple seven days later as Ruofeng had just said. Was this a coincidence or a well-planned plan?
"Got it. Tell him I'll go." Shangguan Nanxing's eyes were burning, with a faint smile on his lips. He leaned against the corner of the table in front of the window, listening to the sound of raindrops outside.
Yue'er, in this life, I want to have you, grow old with you, and have many children and grandchildren with you.
Even if you blame me or hate me, in order to get you, Brother Nanxing may not be as cowardly as he was in his previous life.
Brother Nanxing will do what needs to be done without hesitation.
A carefully laid net was thus drawn, but the interesting thing was that the fish in the net actually thought they were the ones who cast the net.
