Chapter 48 Yun Ji is angry
Revenge on Su Rui?
She dreamed of Su Rui's death, preferably torn into pieces, with her bones and ashes scattered, so that she would never appear in front of her again.
But in front of Chang Ning, she naturally couldn't say what she was thinking. After all, she was a good sister who cared about Su Rui.
"My sister simply believed the slander and was eager to clear herself of the charges. That's why what happened that day happened. Please, Princess, don't let this happen..."
“Bang!”
Before Zhou Yao could finish her words, the nanny slapped her hard on the left cheek where she was whipped, which made her cry.
"This princess didn't ask you to come here to watch your acting." Chang Ning sneered impatiently, "Those tricks of yours are not worthy of this princess. This princess is not like those fools in the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. This princess knows that you hate Su Rui to death."
Zhou Yao lowered her head and did not refute.
"This princess will give you a chance. Kill Su Rui. How about it?"
Zhou Yao paused for a moment, then said tentatively, "I'm weak as a chicken, how can I kill someone?"
"You don't, but your mother does." Chang Ning looked Zhou Yao in front of her thoroughly, leaning in close, whispering like a devil: "This princess knows that your mother has the means. You and your daughter will take action to eliminate Su Rui in a reasonable way. This princess will protect you and no one will be able to trace it back to you. How do you do it?"
Even if we get rid of Su Rui, we still can't find her?
It seems to be a business that is sure to make money.
"I have another request!" Zhou Yao raised her head, staring at Chang Ning with lustful eyes, and said, "I want to marry Chen He and become the wife of the prince of Pingjun Mansion."
Chang Ning raised her eyebrows and said playfully, "Okay, as long as Su Rui dies, I will personally act as your matchmaker."
Then Changning waved his hand, and the guards who were suppressing Zhou Yao and Hongxiu released their hands.
"This princess gives you five days. After five days, you must hear the news of Su Rui's death."
Zhou Yao nodded, covered her face, and left with Hongxiu.
As they watched the two figures leave the dark alley, the nanny beside them asked worriedly, "Princess, will Zhou Yao obey orders? Will she turn around and tell the Marquis of Yong'an?"
"She won't. What she lacks is an opportunity to kill Su Rui." Chang Ning knew this kind of people in the gutter too well. She had been suppressed by the title of Su Rui's legitimate daughter for many years, and she had long hated her in her heart.
"Then why don't you send someone to follow her? If things don't work out, we can resolve it in time to prevent her from blaming you, my princess."
"No need. Who knows what I said to her today? Who would believe her one-sided story?" Chang Ning didn't take Zhou Yao seriously at all, and even the Yong'an Marquisate was not in her eyes.
As long as her father, Prince Wanglong, survives, she will never be in any danger.
If it wasn't for Yu Li this time, she wouldn't have bothered to do anything.
"Yes," the nanny replied, then thought for a moment before adding, "Princess, I've looked into the matter five years ago. Although the son-in-law insists it was Su Rui, Zhou Yao might also be a possibility."
"No," Chang Ning said without a doubt. "She was only that young five years ago. Even if that bastard Chen Youmin had the guts to do that, she wouldn't be that stupid."
Seeing that Changning did not doubt Zhou Yao, the nanny did not continue to say anything else, but just shut up and went to work.
On the other side, Zhou Yao covered her face and walked with Hongxiu from the path to the door, got on the carriage and walked back.
After getting in the car, Hongxiu felt relieved. She looked at Zhou Yao, still in shock, and said, "Miss, this Princess Changning is really too arrogant. She came up and slapped you in the face. It's broken."
Holding the bronze mirror, Zhou Yao looked at her face, which had just healed and was now red and swollen, and the whip mark was like a snake lying on her face. She was so angry that she wanted to eat Changning alive.
But she couldn't do it, and could only say bitterly: "Who made her reincarnate? God is always so unfair."
Hongxiu, who was reincarnated as a maid, did not respond. If it came to reincarnation, Zhou Yao was not bad either, but she was never satisfied and always wanted to compare herself with better ones.
"Miss, are you really going to do what the princess said? Didn't the lady tell you to be patient and wait..."
"Wait! How long do I have to wait? Wait until Su Rui succeeds? Wait until she gains favor? Wait until she becomes the princess and steps on me?" The more she talked, the more she could imagine that scene. Zhou Yao absolutely could not accept it.
How is she inferior to Su Rui? Why should she be outdone by her?
Time and time again, she had endured enough and waited enough.
"Isn't mother just worried about being discovered? Now Changning said that he would protect me and no one would find out. Isn't that all that matters? Besides, that person is also outside the capital, which is perfect for this purpose."
The more Zhou Yao thought about it, the more she felt that God was helping her. The time, the place, and the people were all right. It meant that God also wanted Su Rui to die.
As long as Su Rui died, everything would be solved, and her mother wouldn't blame her.
"But……"
"No buts!" Zhou Yao shouted angrily as she approached, grabbed Hongxiu's collar and threatened, "Don't tell mother, otherwise you won't be able to explain if something happens to your brother."
Hongxiu felt angry, but she didn't dare to say anything. She could only shut her mouth and listen to the orders.
…
Fahua Temple.
Ever since returning from Buddha Village that day, Yun Ji started to avoid Su Rui again. Even if he bribed Black Bodhisattva with delicious food to lead the way, he was still one step short every time.
The most recent time, the futon was still warm when Su Rui arrived.
She then changed her strategy and asked Black Bodhisattva to bring the things and the letter, and to be humble and say nice things. However, once the things were delivered, they would appear in front of her door in good condition the next morning.
Su Rui couldn't understand why Yun Ji was so angry because she had just made a joke that day?
Seeing that there were only five days left in a month, Su Rui felt anxious and depressed.
Just as I was having a headache, a figure appeared outside the courtyard gate.
It was Madam Kang who was beside Madam Liang.
"Miss," Madam Kang said, standing at the gate. "Today, while sorting the storeroom, we discovered that a thief had stolen the late Madam's dowry. Madam doesn't have a list of what's missing, so we can't check. Madam has asked me to ask you to come back to the house and personally check what's missing."
Because Liang was my mother's half-sister, and she and Su Ye were both young when she passed away, after Liang married into the family, it was natural for her to share in the management of my mother's dowry.
Su Rui had no idea how much money had been embezzled over the years, and she had always wanted to get it back, but unfortunately, she had no suitable opportunity and no time, so she could only hold back.
Unexpectedly, Liang brought it up herself at this time.
Was it really stolen or was it just an excuse to cover up the theft?
Anyway, Yun Ji can’t be caught for the time being, so it’s better to go back and see what Liang wants to do.
I wanted to ask Black Bodhisattva to take today's things away, but looking at the sun, it was still some time before noon, so it should be in time to come back.
Thinking of this, Su Rui followed Mother Kang into the carriage.
At this moment, all those who were rushing into the city early in the morning had already gone in, and the families in the capital did not go out this way to do business, so there was no other carriage on the road except for Su Rui and his companions.
This was a perfectly normal thing, and Su Rui didn't feel anything was wrong at all.
Until she smelled a fishy odor.
It's the smell that only comes from being soaked in a pile of blood!
