Ten days later.
Peach Valley.
When Chen Siyuan arrived at the garden, everything she saw was jasmine. Smelling the fragrance in the air, Chen Siyuan felt that her injury was not unjustified.
Things I didn't get to enjoy in my past life, I'm experiencing in this one.
Now I understand why many people want to find a place to live in seclusion when they get old.
Enjoy the beauty of nature and live a quiet, idyllic life.
It's absolutely gorgeous.
I wonder what the situation is like outside.
Ten days have passed since I was taken away that day.
Those major events should have been resolved by now.
Logically speaking, at this time in the previous life, the fourth prince was unlucky and had already been placed under house arrest, the third prince was in the best position, and the seventh prince was still lukewarm.
The various families in the capital have begun to choose sides.
In my past life, the capital city started to become lively around this time, and several major events occurred, resulting in the deaths of many people, all with a plausible excuse.
That's all just a facade; it's only because all those who died were connected to the Fourth Prince.
The fourth prince was unlucky; his power was disintegrated, and those he trusted fell into misfortune one after another.
As for the reason, it's something even a three-year-old child would know, and Chen Siyuan didn't want to think about it too much.
Bored, Chen Siyuan picked up a book of poems and started reading slowly.
A gust of wind blew by, and petals fluttered down from the sky. Chen Siyuan couldn't help but look up.
So beautiful!
"Young Madam?" Chunlan arrived with a cup of tea, and this was the scene she saw.
Chen Siyuan turned her head to look at her, "You silly girl, always looking so bitter and resentful, who are you trying to impress?"
Upon hearing this, Chunlan tried to kneel down, but Chen Siyuan immediately said, "If you want to kneel down, get the hell away from me right now."
This is what Chunping and Chunlan do most often after they wake up in this place.
They felt guilty for not serving them well, unaware that Chen Siyuan was relieved that she had protected her maids this time.
"Young Madam?"
"Alright, I'm in a good mood. Your presence will only spoil the fun." Chen Siyuan glanced at her, took the tea, and slowly sipped it.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Chunlan beside her, her eyes reddening. Her heart wasn't entirely at peace.
That day, feeling hopeless, she made a decision: even in death, she would become a vengeful ghost to avenge herself.
She's still alive, and she can't forget about revenge.
Chunping walked quickly in from outside.
Chen Siyuan noticed immediately, "What's making you so happy?"
Chunping bowed and said, "Young Madam, after you left, all the flowers in the entire capital withered overnight."
"Huh?" Chen Siyuan was surprised.
Chunlan couldn't remain calm any longer and looked at Chunping.
Chunping knew they wouldn't believe her, but it was all true.
"How could that be? I'm not the Flower Goddess, how could the flowers wither just because I left?" Chen Siyuan didn't believe in ghosts or gods. Having experienced what happened to her, she knew her own limitations and knew she didn't have such power.
If I truly possessed this ability, I wouldn't have met such a tragic end in my past life, which suggests there's more to the story.
Where is Qiao Yuchen?
"Young Master went out early this morning."
Chen Siyuan nodded. When they arrived at this place, Qiao Yuchen stayed by her side for the first few days, but then he would go out every few days.
I don't know what I'm doing, but it must be something important.
"You mean all the flowers in the capital have withered?"
"yes."
Chunping personally went to the capital and saw this strange sight. Now she was a little calmer, but she still felt strange. Looking closely at Chen Siyuan, she wondered if she was really the reincarnation of the Flower Goddess.
At this moment, Chen Siyuan smiled; she knew what was going on.
Someone must be making a big deal out of this.
Regardless of the motives behind it, it was clearly in her own interest, and she felt it was very likely that Qiao Yuchen did it.
Some things don't need to be done personally. Just sprinkle something harmful to the flowers in the air, and the delicate flowers will naturally wither.
Thinking about this, Chen Siyuan couldn't help but wonder about Qiao Yuchen's identity.
Could he really be the leader of the Demonic Cult?
If this is true, then wouldn't Qiao Yuchen's people be everywhere in the capital?
Once the order was given, many people busied themselves with it.
But what about the palace?
Could it be that the imperial palace is also under Qiao Yuchen's control?
Thinking about this possibility, I suddenly felt that Qiao Yuchen was too terrifying, wasn't he?
He even had people in the imperial palace.
He thought of Pingtai, who was a member of the Western Depot, the old emperor's man, and also someone arranged by the third prince.
Thinking about this, I suddenly realized it wasn't a big deal.
In Beijing, even a team can have a bright future. You need to be capable and resourceful so that even if you seem insignificant, some people won't dare to underestimate you.
Just then, Qiao Yuchen walked in from outside.
Upon seeing this, Chunlan and Chunping immediately bowed.
Qiao Yuchen came up to her and gently hugged her from behind.
"Does it still hurt?" Qiao Yuchen asked, his eyes filled with heartache.
Upon seeing this, Chunlan and Chunping immediately bowed and left.
This place is absolutely safe; they don't need to be as careful as they are in the mansion.
After walking a distance, they looked back and smiled.
If Tao Yifan once held a place in Chen Siyuan's heart, it now seems that Qiao Yuchen is better able to protect Chen Siyuan.
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Chen Siyuan smiled. This man always said that whenever he saw her.
Even if it hurts, being held in someone's hands like this makes it all worthwhile.
In just a few days, she has recovered.
Thinking of this, I thought of Wang Li again.
She turned to look at the man and said, "There's something I need to tell you."
“No need,” Qiao Yuchen said quickly. “Women should have some secrets.”
Chen Siyuan stared intently at the man's face. What did he know?
Does this person know that Wang Li treats him differently?
I've done a good job before and no one noticed, could it be this time?
When she met the man's open and honest gaze, her inner suspicions turned into a feeling that she was being petty.
Later, they simply stopped mentioning Wang Li.
Whether she knows or not, as long as this person won't harm Wang Li, she can maintain a friendly relationship with him.
"I heard that all the flowers in the capital have withered?" This is Peach Valley. Chunping went to the capital, and this person couldn't hide it from her eyes.
"Um."
"You did this, didn't you?"
"What do you think?"
Chen Siyuan laughed out loud, looking at the man's handsome face with a smile, as if she was bewitched by his appearance, "It should be."
Why?
"Looking across the entire capital, only you have this ability."
"You trust your husband that much?" Qiao Yuchen said, clearly seeing the smile in the woman's eyes gradually fade. He tried to maintain his expression, but it still became somewhat stiff.
Even after all this, the woman still hasn't accepted his feelings.
He still shut himself out of his heart!
