Chapter 260 Xie Guanlan looked at the philandering girl from afar
Wei Ying looked at the bronze mirror.
The girl in the bronze mirror had a round face, her almond-shaped eyes burning with blazing ambition. She spoke the cruelest words in a calm tone, "Why not have Pei Lin arrange for the palace maids to poison the Spring Banquet and kill all the queens, concubines, princes, and princesses? Even the noble families who came to the palace for the banquet should not be spared. After all, they are all traitors. Anyone who betrays the Great Wei deserves to die."
Wei Ying clenched the handkerchief mouse.
In the past, she always wanted Wei Ning to become what he is now.
Form a united front with her, restore the country with her, and walk on the same road with her for the rest of her life.
However, when she was really turned into this state by Pei Lin's witchcraft...
Wei Ying felt depressed and conflicted.
Her cousin grew up in Chengdu and had never experienced the country's destruction and becoming a slave.
Her cousin suffered a lot when she was a child and was badly bullied by her brothers and sisters. Later, she finally followed her aunt into the Zhenbei Palace, where she met relatives who loved her very much.
But before she could enjoy a few years of good life, she followed her aunt to the capital city thousands of miles away.
She was forced to leave her homeland and forget the two warmest years of her life. She became a cold, sharp guillotine, remembering hatred that did not belong to her, and participating in a siege and massacre that she should not have had to bear...
Wei Ying slowly squatted down beside Wen Xingluo.
She held Wen Xingluo's hand.
The girl's hands are soft and delicate, like tender willows in spring.
Wei Ying looked up at her almond-shaped eyes and said, "Wei Ning, are you happy now?"
Wen Xingluo looked at her in surprise.
Wei Ying repeated seriously, "Wei Ning, are you happy now?"
Wen Xingluo lowered her eyelashes, "Cousin, I seem to be in a very dangerous situation. Someone is trying to tamper with my memory and turn me into a strange person."
Wei Ying was silent.
She knew that with her cousin's cleverness, she would definitely be able to discover that Pei Lin had cast a spell on her.
"But I think, no matter whether my current memory is true or false, my cousin and I are definitely the best in the world, because intuition can't deceive people." Wen Xingluo suddenly raised a bright smile at her, "I like my cousin, I like my cousin to come and play with me, and I like my cousin to take me to make clay figurines."
Wei Ying stared at the girl, the corners of her sharp and slightly raised eyes gradually turning wet and red.
She also smiled brightly at Wen Xingluo, holding the handkerchief mouse in one hand and her hand in the other, "Wei Ying and Wei Ning, the best in the world!"
Wei Ying sat next to Wen Xingluo and chose to tell him everything about Pei Lin, and then briefly explained the situation between Wei Si and her.
Wen Xingluo raised an eyebrow, "As expected."
"His witchcraft requires the aid of a medium, but you haven't seen him during the day, and you haven't eaten anything suspicious, so he must have done this to you at night. Don't sleep in the bedroom tonight, and see if that can alleviate your current symptoms."
Wen Xingluo took her words to heart, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Cousin, do I like Xie Guanlan?"
Wei Ying nodded, "I like it."
"Then he must be a gentleman as gentle as jade." Wen Xingluo curved his eyebrows, "I admire those scholars who are elegant, refined, honest and kind the most."
Wei Ying: “…”
Gentle as jade?
Delicate, gentle, honest and kind?
It seems that no word has anything to do with Xie Guanlan.
She said embarrassedly, "You'll know when you see me in person later."
The two sisters were talking when Pei Lin suddenly appeared, holding a whisk. "Today is the Spring Banquet, and the Queen will be there. I have a bottle of colorless and odorless poison. I will kill the Queen first today. I will kill the tyrant emperor another day."
"Xie Zhe's absence from the capital makes this a perfect opportunity for us to take action." Wei Ying glanced at Wen Xingluo and added, "My cousin is our hope. We must not involve her in this matter today."
After the two of them finished talking, they went out to prepare the poisoning.
Wen Xingluo looked into the bronze mirror and adjusted her hairpin.
There was a poison hidden in her hairpin.
Both Empress Mei and Concubine Zhang betrayed their mother. How could the death of Empress Mei alone be enough?
Since someone is going to die today, it would be better to have Concubine Zhang die too.
The girl stepped out of the palace with an indifferent expression. As soon as she walked out of the Pearl Palace, she ran into Wen Yueyin who was also going to attend the Spring Banquet.
Wen Yueyin was dressed up today. When she saw Wen Xingluo, she was a little displeased. "Little sister, you already have a lover, why are you still going to the Spring Banquet? Are you trying to steal the Crown Prince from me? In your previous life, you married the Crown Prince before me. Do you still want to steal from me in this life?!"
Wen Xingluo was stunned.
In her previous life, she married the prince?
"That day in Hanshuang Palace, I saw the clues when you and the Crown Prince locked eyes!" Wen Yueyin pouted, "Little sister, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're too fickle! You like this one, you like that one, why are you fighting for so many men by yourself?! Can you handle it all?! Can't you just give one to me?!"
After she finished speaking, she ran to the front with a wronged look on her face.
Wen Xingluo stood there in shock.
It turns out that she not only likes Xie Guanlan, but also has a crush on the prince!
She walked towards the Imperial Garden while trying to digest the news.
A passing young lady from an aristocratic family commented, "I heard that the prince from Shu County in the southwest has come to the capital, and the imperial concubine has specially invited him to attend the Spring Festival Banquet. He hasn't married yet, so maybe he wants to choose one from among us."
"I heard he's very handsome, but I don't know who's better than Master He. Hey, Master He will be here today too. What do you think? Will Master He choose me as the He family's young lady?"
"Come on, Master He has already been favored by the Imperial Concubine and is going to be betrothed to the Third Princess!"
"But why did I hear that Master He and that Wen Xingluo were having an affair? That day by the Taihua Pond, the Third Princess personally testified that Wen Xingluo seduced Master He, and Master He wasn't angry at all; he actually defended Wen Xingluo!"
“…”
Wen Xingluo was stunned.
Not only did she like Xie Guanlan and Xie Xuchi, she even seduced He Yu?!
So she is a very playboy?!
In a pavilion not far away.
Xie Guanlan played with the amulet and glanced coldly at the girl on the peony path.
