Qingyan looked to the practiced writings on the table up until the last moments, when she finally angrily picked up the piece of paper and threw it.
She couldn't forget; she simply just couldn't forget. Every time she closed her eyes to sleep would remember how everything started, remember all the pain she had suffered. She would remember her family, her children.
How were they not all innocent?
Her father, her children, how would they end up?
She took out the dagger she'd always carried and craved onto the table. Only like this, could she slightly relieve the pain suppressed in her heart.
As long as she takes the right steps and obtain the current emperor of Donghe's acknowledgement, she can go to Nanchen with this identity and extract her revenge. Let that cheating pair meet the end they deserve. The only thing she can do now is to turn the entire Su manor on its head.
Since Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun wanted to go against her, then she won't mind to stir up this pond even more.
What does 'to not practice good virtue, heaven will strike you down' mean?
It was this.
"Su fourth miss sure is skilled."
When she heard this voice and looked up, Qingyan saw Murong Jingxuan clad in purple sitting on the window sill. He had his legs crossed and even leisurely carried a blade of green bristlegrass in his mouth.
"Oh!" Qingyan said this as she threw out the dagger in hand. Seeing the dagger get caught, she smiled, "Since your Highness likes this dagger so much, I'll just pretend that I've given it to your Highness as a gift."
Murong Jingxuan played with the blade in hand, but his gaze not once leaving Qingyan. After staring at her for awhile, he smiled and said, "Miss, you should have already known that the third house is going to act, why haven't you made a move yet!"
"How do you know I haven't made a move yet? Did Fengqing not tell you anything?" Su Qingyan listened to Murong Jingxuan's words and looked to him in surprise.
Fengqing would usually report everything about her to Murong Jingxuan; could it be that Fengqing made a mistake?
"Fengqing, what is this?" Murong Jingxuan impatiently called out to the air. "Why didn't you report to me Su Miss's recent developments?"
Fengqing silhouette immediately appeared hanging on the window ledge, "Master, I hadn't had the time to report to you the recent affairs. Just when I was about to report to you, you came."
"Hmph." Murong Jingxuan coldly snorted at Fengqing. Fengqing gulped before immediately disappearing again.
"Your Highness, have you finished preparing the thing I asked of you?" Recalling that she had asked him to prepare the seven toxins for her previously, Qingyan looked to him with a bit of excitement in her gaze.
Perhaps it was because of that look of hers, Murong Jingxuan suddenly felt his mood improve greatly. The unpleasant feeling from earlier seemed to have also instantly vanished into thin air, "Naturally, I would acquired them for you."
Murong Jingxuan recalled her sleep talk from last time, and wanted to use this opportunity to ask her about it, but for some reason seeing her appearance now, the words wouldn't come out.
"One of my subordinates told me that granny Ruo has yet to return, is that true?" Murong Jingxuan looked to Su Qingyan, and after clearing his throat, he chose to change the topic.
Thinking of granny Ruo, Su Qingyan smiled, "Of course, after all, her son's life span is at its end. If I'm right, then the net cast is slowly being reeled in."
