Chapter 137 Reminded Her
The guard continued, "Wait in the hall."
When Qin Junyi heard this, he thought that since the prince came in person, something must have happened. He had no time to care about Shangguan Yao and Xie Rongying, and walked out of the flower hall directly.
The guards followed.
When Xie Rongying and Shangguan Yao were the only ones left in the flower hall, the atmosphere became strange.
Xie Rongying has always been patient. After sitting for a while and about to get up and leave, Shangguan Yao spoke.
"Sister, you don't think your good luck will last forever, do you?" Shangguan Yao's expression was indifferent. She glanced at Xie Rongying sideways, as if the impatient and harmless her just now had never appeared. She smiled and said, "If I were you, sister, when you were dealing with Wen Zi, you would have gotten rid of me as well. I don't know if you are too confident and think that I would be scared and terrified when I saw Wen Zi's body."
"Now, I'm back by Junyi's side, and I've pushed you into the position of being the murderer of Chen Ge'er. If anything happens to me in the Marquis' Mansion, Junyi will be the first one to not let you go."
Xie Rongying was not surprised at all by Shangguan Yao's behavior. She smiled and said, "You did remind me."
The smile on Shangguan Yao's lips froze slightly.
Xie Rongying looked Shangguan Yao up and down: "So what are we keeping you for?"
"You dare to touch me?" Shangguan Yao was already filled with fear. She stared at Xie Rongying deeply and said, "I told my father about my brother and Wen Zi. If something happens to me..."
"Xie Rongying, you won't have a good ending."
Hearing this, Xie Rongying just smiled twice and said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Shangguan Yao saw Xie Rongying so relaxed and at ease, while she herself occupied a low position. However, she had to swallow her anger at this moment. As Xie Rongying stood up, she said, "When you are no longer useful to Qin Junyi, your fate will be no better than Qin Junchen's."
"Thank you for reminding me." Xie Rongying stared at Shangguan Yao with a sidelong smile: "I was able to marry into the Yongyi Marquis's mansion because they could use me."
Shangguan Yao felt inexplicably uneasy when she heard these meaningful words, as if they were reminding her of something.
By the time Shangguan Yao reacted, Xie Rongying had already walked out of the flower hall.
"Madam, Xie Rongying doesn't seem afraid at all." Xue Qing felt strange: "Why wouldn't she be afraid after the truth was revealed?"
Shangguan Yao said coldly: "Don't worry about whether she is afraid or not. I will deal with her in the Yongyi Marquis Mansion. As long as everything goes smoothly with Fengqing, I want to see how long Xie Rongying can be so arrogant."
She must avenge Wen Zi!
"I will go to Miss Fengqing again tomorrow to ask about the situation." Xueqing said.
——
Xie Rongying looked gloomy when he left Linfeng Garden. Cuizhi and Dongxue knew that their master was in a bad mood. If the words Qin Junyi had just said were really spread in Bianjing City, it would undoubtedly make their master's reputation be trampled on.
After creating some distance from Linfengyuan.
Xie Rongying asked, "Has Yunniang made all the arrangements?"
"Li Dongfu wrote to say that everything has been arranged. Yunniang misses you very much." Cuizhi responded.
After she finished speaking, Cuizhi did not wait for Xie Rongying's response. She looked at Dongxue again and motioned Dongxue to come forward and say a few words of comfort.
Dongxue shook her head. Don’t they know their master’s temper?
I guess he didn't listen to what Qin Junyi and Shangguan Yao said at all, and just regarded these two people as thorns in his eyes and bones in his flesh.
On the path near the East Garden, the displeasure on Xie Rongying's face faded away.
She slowed down her pace, took out a handkerchief and wiped her forehead, saying, "The weather is getting hotter."
"Go back to East Garden quickly, young lady." Cuizhi knew that Xie Rongying was always afraid of the sun, so she wanted to go forward to block the sunlight.
But he was stopped by Xie Rongying.
Xie Rongying walked towards the pavilion beside the pond on the other side and said, "Cuizhi, do you know who the people Yunniang arranged to watch over Linfeng Garden are from the mansion?"
"I know. They are the girls who do the rough work in the front yard." Cuizhi responded.
Xie Rongying fell silent after hearing this. She didn't speak until they entered the pavilion. "I think Qin Junyi will arrange for someone to protect Shangguan Yao."
"Why do you say that, girl?" Dongxue asked.
Xie Rongying sat down on the platform in front of the fence, looking at the slightly murky water in the pond, and said with a smile: "Before, I wanted to make Shangguan Yao and Qin Junyi turn against each other, but judging by Qin Junyi's protection of Shangguan Yao, I think even if Shangguan Yao killed his brother with her own hands, she would not necessarily turn against Shangguan Yao."
"So what does the young lady want to do?" Dongxue didn't quite understand what the young lady was thinking now. She had no intention of getting a divorce, nor did she have the possibility of making friends with the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion.
Xie Rongying chuckled: "So Shangguan Yao reminded me why I should keep her."
Shangguan Yan, who was far away in Longxi, allowed his two children to wander around in Bian Jing and even arranged for them to marry into the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion. For whom was he paving the way?
How could Shangguan Jing, a man who often roamed around the martial arts world, become the prince's confidant?
What role does the cousin who has entered the palace and become a noble lady play in this situation?
The trajectory today is completely different from that of the previous life.
If you are not careful, you will become a stepping stone for others and even bring trouble to the Xie family.
Thinking of this, Xie Rongying's face darkened. She murmured, "Since the situation has come to this, why not make a bigger fuss?"
Make the water in Bianjing even more muddy and chaotic.
Will the big creature in the water appear?
"Find a chance and have Gu Xun tie the man up for me." Xie Rongying ordered softly.
Cuizhi and Dongxue both looked solemn when they heard this.
"Miss, you also said that the young marquis would place people around her to protect her." Cuizhi said worriedly: "If she is discovered after rashly kidnapping someone, then..."
"Then don't get caught." Xie Rongying interrupted Cuizhi with a sidelong glance: "Qin Junyi's people can't always protect Shangguan Yao."
"I just feel that Shangguan Yao is not as simple as she seems." Cuizhi said.
Xie Rongying's gaze fell back on the murky water of the pond. She slowly leaned against the fence, her expression heavy. She said, "The middle of the month is the birthday of the old lady of the Jiang family."
In the past, the Jiang family would hold grand birthday banquets, but this year, Old Mrs. Jiang was sending off her loved ones twice in a row, so the birthday banquet would definitely not be grand.
But it won’t be easy.
Xie Rongying stood up, a hint of darkness in her deep eyes. She said, "Go and prepare the gifts for Old Madam Jiang's birthday banquet."
"Yes." Dongxue and Cuizhi stood up and said.
Xie Rongying's gaze fell on Dongxue: "Go and find out why the prince came to the mansion."
