Chu Weiyue glanced at him coldly, "Madam Shangguan, why don't you take back the gift? We don't want to receive anything without merit."

What she hated most was hypocritical people, and what she said sounded like she had no idea.

But how could she not know about such a big thing?

Madam Shangguan looked wronged and aggrieved. "I'm so sorry. This is all my fault. I didn't discipline him well enough..."

"That's enough. Stop talking. You should think carefully about how to dispel these rumors! If I hear these rumors again, I will punish you severely!"

He didn't say the rest, but his tone and eyes told Madam Shangguan that there would definitely be a bloody disaster.

As for who the dead person was, it was obvious.

He is a prince with a noble status, so it is understandable that he wants to sentence someone to death.

There was a strong fear in Mrs. Shangguan's eyes, and she could only apologize continuously.

Seeing that Wen Jingchi and Chu Weiyue didn't want to pay attention, he made a promise before turning around and leaving.

When she walked out of here, she broke out in a fine layer of cold sweat and couldn't help wiping the sweat from her forehead.

Thinking of what my daughter had done, I could only go to her boudoir.

At this time, Shangguan Wan'er was sitting in the room and throwing a tantrum.

Thinking of Wen Jingchi's rejection of her and the rumors in the mansion, she became furious.

Madam Shangguan came in with a dark face and poked her hard on the forehead.

"Who spread the rumor? I told you to be cautious before doing this. If you are not sure, don't spread some unfounded rumors. You can only spread it when it is confirmed. Only in this way can he marry you. Do you understand?"

Her tone was aggressive, and Shangguan Wan'er's eyes turned red with anger.

"Mother, I know what you told me before, and I didn't mean it. I thought that these rumors would make the relationship between Wen Jingchi and me more ambiguous. Anyway, it has been known to others, and he might openly..."

Mrs. Shangguan was almost crying because of her stupidity.

"You damn girl, how can you use such means? Didn't I tell you to take the initiative? With your figure and looks, as long as you take the initiative, how could Wen Jingchi refuse? How could this man not cheat?"

"No matter how much he loves his concubines, what can he do? When your father was young, he knelt for three days and three nights to beg me to marry him, but in the end he still had three wives and four concubines..."

So in Mrs. Shangguan's view, the so-called love is all fake and it is impossible for it to last forever.

Shangguan Wan'er bit her lips tightly and sighed.

"But Wen Jingchi ignored me. I took off all my clothes, but he remained indifferent. In the end, he even threatened me..."

She suddenly seemed to remember something and grabbed Madam Shangguan's hand.

"Mother, tell me what to do?"

Madam Shangguan patted her head gently and said, "Don't worry, I will find a way for you. Don't be impatient about this matter. Let's resolve the rumors first, and then we can think of other ways."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded. This was all she could do.

At this time, Lord Shangguan arrived.

He had a gloomy face and looked depressed.

"What happened?" Mrs. Shangguan walked over and asked in confusion.

"Isn't it that the emperor sent a letter, saying that he wants us to place some people next to Wen Jingchi? The most direct way is to take a concubine. He asked me to find a reliable person to get close to Wen Jingchi and have a relationship with him. As long as it goes smoothly, I don't have to worry about his disagreement!"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er's eyes showed a strong sense of surprise.

"Daddy, just let me go. I am your daughter, the most reliable one, and I will never betray you."

Lord Shangguan patted her head with satisfaction, "I knew that my good daughter would share the burden for Daddy when she grows up. Wen Jingchi is handsome and of noble status, and my daughter is more than qualified to be with her."

"I will invite Wen Jingchi to visit the water conservancy project at noon tomorrow. We will go to a restaurant for dinner. The journey is long, and he will not bring Chu Weiyue with him. You will wait for us at the restaurant."

His meaning was clear, allowing Shangguan Wan'er to take the opportunity to seduce him.

When a man is drunk, he will inevitably act irrationally.

"You should dress up nicely. He might like Chu Weiyue's style. You are too gentle. You should also change your temperament. Maybe being more aggressive would be better."

Shangguan Wan'er bit her lower lip tightly, holding her breath in her heart but unable to let it out.

She just wants to be herself and not be like anyone else.

But the fact that Wen Jingchi likes Chu Weiyue proves that this woman must be special.

If you look more similar to her, you will indeed have more opportunities.

Shangguan Wan'er didn't think much about it and agreed without hesitation.

The next day at noon, after the tour ended, they went to a restaurant for dinner together.

I just went in and found Shangguan Wan'er was there too.

Lord Shangguan immediately pulled Shangguan Wan'er to his side.

"Your Highness, this is my daughter. You have seen her last time. She happened to be here for fun, so I asked her to come here and sing for us. She is the best singer here, and her Jiangnan songs are the most romantic."

There was something else behind his words, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Shangguan Wan'er was dressed extremely gorgeously today. She had heard that Wen Jingchi's favorite thing was music.

In order to win his favor and make him feel that I am a wise and talented woman, I prepared for a long time.

Shangguan Wan'er spoke in a soft voice and came to Wenjingchi.

The way she was dressed today was extremely similar to Chu Weiyue's.

Glancing at her calmly, Wen Jingchi couldn't help coughing a few times.

"Today I just want to be quiet. You don't need to sing. Sing it for me and my princess when we get back. She also likes to listen to Jiangnan folk songs. How can I enjoy it alone?"

He set his gaze on Lord Shangguan.

"Sir Shangguan, I have an opinion about today's water conservancy project..."

He didn't say anything else, but instead turned his gaze to Shangguan Wan'er.

He just glanced at her and quickly looked away.

Lord Shangguan reacted, glared at Shangguan Wan'er, and could only leave in shame.

She originally thought she could escape, but who would have thought that Wen Jingchi would actually ask her to go over and sing a song.

In front of Chu Weiyue, she looked like a singing prostitute.

After the song ended, Chu Weiyue clapped softly.

"You sang really well. I didn't expect Miss Shangguan to have such a sweet voice. I think even Liu Ruyan, the most beautiful girl in Jiangnan, can't sing as well as you."

There was a faint smile on the corner of her lips, but her tone was full of gunpowder.

In an instant, the provocation was full.

If Shangguan Wan'er wasn't stupid, she would have been able to tell that I was deliberately slandering her.

She is Wen Jingchi's legal wife, and he will not allow any woman to challenge his authority.

Any man who dares to covet her is simply dreaming!
