~ POWERFUL EYES ~
Su Wenyuan looked at Su Qingwu with wide eyes. He couldn’t believe that these words were coming from his mouth. While he was angry, he couldn’t stop panicking in his heart: “Qingwu, you are Father’s most proud Son. You are the backbone of our Su family in the future. You can’t give up on yourself like this. The matter is far from over. Our Su family has a life-saving grace to Su Qing ... No, Xu Yanhan. Perhaps Grand Princess Yi De will look at this kindness and help each other.....”
Su Qingwu could not believe his ears. He raised his head and frowned at Su Wenyuan, who looked slightly crazy. For the first time, she felt that his father’s image in his heart was no longer as grand as before. But rather like an unreasonable rural man.
“Father, have you forgotten? Those so-called kindnesses were all woven by our Su family to deceive the Grand Princess Yi De in order to get a chance to breathe. From beginning to end, it was our Su family who had the guts to steal Grand Princess Yi De’s daughter in an attempt to repay each other with kindness. In the end, we concealed the truth at the beginning in order to protect ourselves and wanted to kill Grand Princess Yi De’s daughter and granddaughter. Even if great Luo Jinxian is alive now, he can’t save the Su family, which has rotted to the root.”
“Impossible! Everything that happened back then was clearly planned. Your grandmother and I expected the Su family’s further development and prosperity. Everything seemed to be happening right in front of our eyes. Why did it fall apart so easily?”
Su Qingwu sat on a chair, and the candlelight illuminated his face, casting a shadow over his handsome face. “If I knew earlier, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place. I also have my responsibilities. I should have done everything to prevent Mother and Grandmother from hurting Yunyao … … If I stop it, I can’t say...”
Su Wenyuan sat on the chair in a trance, and his eyes were trembling non-stop, “No, right now, we are still far from the end of the peak. We still have your sister Su Yuyi. What kind of Mu Yunyao, and what kind of Grand Princess Yi De? Can they compare to the Emperor? As long as the Emperor values the Su family again, we will have a chance to make a comeback! We won’t even know who will die when we regain our glory!”
Su Qingwu didn’t say anything. His father had already fallen into the beautiful dream he had made himself. At this moment, no one could wake him up. “Father, rest well. I’m going back to pay a visit to the Sixth Princess.”
“Go and see what she’s doing. The dignified Sixth Princess of the Dali Dynasty actually doesn’t have any brains and has brought our Su family into such a passive situation. According to the Su family’s rules, she should be severely punished!”
Su Qingwu’s footsteps paused for a moment, and then he walked out of the room with the porcelain pieces all over the floor. He did not even turn around to look at Su Wenyuan.
The guard at the door lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. As Su Qingwu walked past, he instructed in a soft voice, “Keep an eye on Father. Don’t let him leave the residence for the next two days.”
“Young Master......”
“Didn’t you understand what I meant?” Su Qingwu turned his head, his ice-cold expression containing a cold killing intent.
“Yes, this servant understands.”
The Su family’s movements were heard by Xu Yanhan’s ears from the Qinfang Garden.
“Qu Mama, do you think I have to continue to deal with them at this time?”
Qu Mama stood at the side with a smile on her face. “This old servant is foolish, and a lot of sense is not clear. I only remembered that I once heard a story where a person encountered a green snake and beat it half to death, thinking it was safe. Who knew that when he passed by the snake, the half-dead snake suddenly jumped up and bit the man’s throat.”
Xu Yanhan pursed her lips, “Mama means that if you hit a snake, and it won’t die, it was you will instead be harmed.”
“Things in the Capital are strange and unpredictable. In one moment, the tree is prosperous and luxuriant. In the next, the branches wither, and the leaves turn into ashes, and vice versa.”
Xu Yanhan sighed secretly, “That’s right, the things in the world is the most unpredictable. Especially the Capital under the feet of the Son of Heaven. There is no chance for the Su family to fight back now, but who knows if they will survive or not? Since that’s the case, I’ll have to ask Q Mama to make a move. The previous method of poisoning Su Jin is now repeated on the Six Princesses. Please send someone to pay attention and don’t hurt the Sixth Princess. ”
“Yes, Madam. Please rest assured.”
Mu Yunyao had been standing at the door the entire time. After listening in on the conversation between her mother and Qu Mama, she finally made a sound and entered the door to pay her respects. “Greetings, Mother.”
“Yao’er, you’re here.” Xu Yanhan’s expression was rather unsightly, and when she saw Mu Yunyao’s smile, it seemed to be a bit forced.
“Mother, what’s the matter?” Mu Yunyao was worried in her heart.
“I thought of something. Yao’er, when we were in Jingling City, we were powerless to resist the arrival of the Su family. You once said to the Su family at that time that we were like ants, and humans would naturally not care about their thoughts. And now, in the short span of a few months, the status has been completely reversed.
When I was in the Qinfang Garden, I said something to deal with the Su family, and in a short time, something disaster happened to the Su family … Yao’er, power is indeed too enchanting. Mother is afraid that she will become addicted to it and turn into the appearance of the Su family.”
Mu Yunyao snuggled up to her side, “Mother, don’t worry, we won’t become like the Su family. We will never be like them, and they deserve what the Su family has today. Thinking about what we have experienced before and Su You, who almost lost her life. Such a family that abandons family ties and only talks about the paramount interests when they are left behind in this world will have infinite consequences.”
Xu Yanhan nodded and warned herself repeatedly that she must remember today’s worries and not be blinded by power.
A sudden heavy rain enveloped the entire Capital in a drizzling mist on the second day.
Mu Yunyao sat by the window and looked at the interwoven curtain of rain outside. She couldn’t help but frown at heart. “It’s rare to see such heavy rain on a spring day.”
Jin Lan nodded in agreement. “Yeah, the weather this year is really abnormal. It’s terribly hot in the beginning of spring. It’s not even summer yet, and heavy rain is pouring again. I don’t know what’s going on.”
Amidst the heavy rain, the Su family’s main door was smashed open with a bang, and following that, the Six Princesses, Huai Yang, rushed out the main entrance, staggering, and fell into the rain curtain.
Su Qingwu followed and ran after her, wanting to step up to help the Sixth Princess up. However, he was stopped by a serving maid. “Sixth Princess, run fast. Rush over towards the Palace and quickly request an audience with the Emperor. He’s your Imperial Father, and he’ll definitely help you seek justice.”
The Sixth Princess was drenched all over her body as she clutched her chest, turning around and looking at Su Qingwu in disbelief. “I treat you wholeheartedly, and I’ve given you my all, yet you want to harm my life. Even if I’ve come to the Palace to plead for mercy, you shouldn’t have treated me like this .....”
“Sixth Princess, you misunderstood. I did not …” Su Qing frowned slightly. Rain dripped down his handsome chin, but the Sixth Princess’s gaze was still captivated by it. “Huaiyng, someone is purposely framing me. Come back with me.”
A trace of hesitation flashed through the Sixth Princess’s eyes, wondering if she should trust Su Qingwu one more time. However, she saw Zhang Wan slowly walking out with an umbrella in her hand.
“Tsk tsk, Sixth Princess, your current appearance is extremely miserable.”
The Sixth Princess gnashed her teeth fiercely. “Zhang Wan!”
