Su Wenqin wanted to keep the person, but Ah Li left without any mercy. He had originally intended to capture the person and tear them to pieces, so why did he... change his mind now?
Su Wenqin was very self-doubting. Was he perhaps sick, and did he like the way she had treated him before?
For a long time afterward, Su Wenqin stayed by Ali's side. He tried, but he still didn't like other women getting close to him. He only had feelings for Ali now.
Su Wenheng, with dark circles under his eyes, sat next to Ali. He glanced at Su Wenqin every now and then and asked Ali in a low voice, "Isn't this guy yelling at you to kill him?"
"Um."
Ali casually picked up a small dish of peeled sunflower seeds in front of Su Wenqin, poured them directly into her mouth, and then placed the dish in front of Su Wenqin.
Su Wenqin glanced at it briefly and then continued peeling sunflower seeds.
Su Wenheng glanced at it silently, then touched his eyes and said, "Then have him give me the antidote. My eyes still can't see very far, which is quite unusual."
Su Wenqin paused slightly as he peeled the melon seeds. He looked up at Ali, knowing he would give her the antidote if she asked.
Ah Li tapped the table and said, "Back then, he was in the Cold Palace, and he was truly blind. You even took advantage of his misfortune and told me to bully him..."
Su Wenheng retorted, "Wait, I didn't tell you to bully him back then."
Su Wenqin stopped what he was doing and looked at Su Wenheng.
Su Wenheng said to Su Wenqin very seriously, "I admit that at that time, I gave her money to serve you well, but I never thought that I would have her serve you like that."
Ali stood up, finding it somewhat amusing. "You, Su Wenheng, explain yourself clearly. You gave me the medicine back then, and the door you closed at the end..."
"You can't just say things like that. I felt cold at the time and didn't want Su Wenqin to catch a cold, so I closed the door behind me. Besides, that medicine was just ordinary medicine. You're all overthinking it."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Ali wanted to drag Su Wenheng over and beat him up, but Su Wenqin took out a bottle of medicine from his body and put it on the table.
Seeing this, Su Wenheng laughed and said to Su Wenqin, "I'm sorry, I was wrong back then. I thought that if I let you fall into the mud, Luo Xue would look down on you. In the end, that silly girl still took you away."
Willows fall like snow.
Ah Li thought of the woman who cried so pitifully back then, and then she looked at Su Wenqin. As far as she knew, Liu Luoxue and the two of them were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Everyone knew that Liu Luoxue liked Su Wenqin.
It's obvious to anyone with eyes that Su Wenheng likes Liu Luoxue.
Now, it's unclear whether this person simply wants her to sleep with him again, or if he's waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.
After all, her fighting skills are top-notch now. Ah Li has seen her share of those who were willing to compromise and bend to their limits.
Ali withdrew her gaze from Su Wenqin, stood up, and said, "I forgot, Consort Mei still has something to discuss with me, I'll go first."
The courtyard of Consort Mei's residence was very large. She also built a Buddhist shrine at the back of the courtyard, and there was a painting hanging in the shrine. The person in the painting was Dou Xin, who was riding a tall horse and wearing a red dress.
Consort Mei held prayer beads in one hand and tapped a wooden fish with the other.
Ah Li didn't go in to disturb them. She smelled the faint scent of incense and sandalwood around her, which gave her a sense of peace and tranquility.
The maidservants who were guarding the courtyard served tea and several kinds of pastries.
Not long after, Consort Mei stopped striking the wooden fish and came out.
The tea beside Ah Li was almost cold, so the maid replaced it with another cup.
Consort Mei came over and said, "You weren't with Su Wenqin today?"
"I only bump into him occasionally."
When Ahri said this, she was also a little unsure of herself. If they happened to meet, it was probably because that person did it on purpose.
Consort Mei chuckled, “I’ve watched Su Wenqin and Su Wenheng grow up since they were little, and they are the two I’m most satisfied with. The Emperor also intends to choose an heir from among them.”
There were only ten princes in the palace, and no princesses.
All ten princes knew their true parentage and that they were not the real princes.
The plans that Consort Mei and her group started with were excellent, and they have no intention of stopping now.
Consort Mei also said, "They don't believe the general is dead. They are all still waiting for the general and want him to become empress."
When Dou Xin came out of the palace that day, she was full of energy and didn't look like a dying person at all. It's normal that no one believed her.
Ali didn't comment. Dou Xin died in front of her, and she was the one who scattered her ashes. Moreover, she didn't intend to participate in their plans.
Just then, a maid came in and whispered, "Madam, Miss Liu has arrived."
"Then please invite her in."
"yes."
After the maid left, Consort Mei said to Ali, "You probably haven't met this Miss Liu yet. She is well-educated and reasonable, and she is also the daughter of the Grand Commandant."
Liu Luoxue arrived, followed by a maid carrying a food box. She called out softly, "Madam Mei, I've come to see you."
Consort Mei did not get up, but smiled gently, "It's hard on you, coming all this way and still thinking of this old woman."
Liu Luoxue blushed slightly. She asked someone to open the food box and said, "I heard recently that Madam is not used to the food here, so I made some myself."
When Consort Mei saw Liu Luoxue take out a few refreshing-looking dishes, she said to Ali, "You should try them too. This person is incredibly skillful and is also the last disciple of the Medical Sage."
