Although Shen Yu did not know what Su Muyao was going to do, he could tell from her appearance that it must be extremely dangerous, and he could not let Su Muyao take this risk.
"Miss Su, may I tell you what your plans are? Otherwise, I am afraid I cannot grant your wish. I will go out and find the Emperor to take you into my Anguo Marquis's mansion."
However, please rest assured, Miss Su, I will certainly not mistreat you. After everything is over, you will be my wife, the wife of the heir apparent, Shen Yu.”
Upon hearing this, Su Muyao's eyes were slightly moved.
Ever since Shen Yu beat someone up with them last time, Su Muyao knew that this young master Shen was not as纨绔 (spoiled brat) as he appeared, but also a person who hated evil.
Since his mother had come to him for help, if he didn't tell the truth, Shen Yu would surely keep his word and do everything in his power to save her life and grant her the title of the Crown Prince's wife.
But she couldn't agree.
Seeing the determination in Shen Yu's eyes, Su Muyao knew that if she didn't make things clear today, Shen Yu would definitely not let her do as planned, and might even ruin her plans.
"Young Master Shen, I can explain this to you in detail, but please do not stop me. This may be an opportunity to clear the Su family's name. The Su family raised me and treated me well; it is time for me to repay the kindness of my parents and brothers."
"If Prince Shen does not agree and insists on marrying me, I will kill myself in prison." Su Muyao looked directly into Shen Yu's eyes.
Shen Yu saw a resolute look in the little girl's eyes, and for a moment he was in a daze, feeling that he vaguely saw the shadow of the princess in her.
Why are all the women in the Su family so stubborn?
Shen Yu sighed, his tone softening, "Miss Su, what do you plan to do?"
Hearing Shen Yu's tone, Su Muyao knew he had agreed, and smiled, "Thank you, Prince Shen. Please keep this a secret for me."
Later, Su Muyao told Shen Yu that when Deng Yi met with her, he would always intentionally or unintentionally mention that after the Su family found Su Ruojin, they would inevitably be biased. He would then use this to comfort Su Muyao, telling her not to overthink it and that he would treat her well.
If it were just once, Su Muyao wouldn't take it to heart. After all, she was an adopted daughter of the Su family, while her eldest sister was the true legitimate daughter of the Su family. It was normal for outsiders to think that way when the Su family brought her eldest sister back.
But Deng Yi would mention it almost every time he saw her. At first, Su Muyao just felt a little uncomfortable, but gradually she realized that something was wrong.
She then deliberately followed up on Deng Yi's words, saying, "Young Master Deng, I know everything you're saying, but I can't decide my own background. It's already a blessing that the Su family adopted me. How can someone like me compete with my elder sister?"
Deng Yi laughed and said, "Mu Yao, once you marry me, you will be the mistress of my Deng family. How could I let my wife suffer such grievances? At that time, I will definitely let the world see that my wife is no less than Princess Chang Le."
"Young Master Deng is too kind. How could I possibly compare to my sister?" Su Muyao said, sounding somewhat resentful.
"Mu Yao, as long as you are willing to do as I say, that day will naturally come." Deng Yi's words seemed to have a hidden meaning.
Su Muyao had a fleeting thought, but said nothing.
If that were all, Su Muyao wouldn't be sure that Deng Yi was acting strangely.
One day, Su Muyao took Hongxiao to a private room in a teahouse for tea.
She unintentionally saw Deng Yi at the teahouse. Normally, Su Muyao wasn't one to meddle, but for some reason, that day, she inexplicably asked Hongxiao to find out what Deng Yi was doing.
Hongxiao was just a maidservant, and couldn't compare to people like An Yi who had received professional training, so it was impossible for her to find out much information.
Hongxiao could only secretly hide to the side and wait for someone to come out, hoping to hear something.
The person who returned to tell Su Muyao and Deng Yi that although he was dressed in the clothes of the Great Chu, he spoke with the accent of the Northern Li.
Northern Li accent?
