Abandoned Daughter from a Noble Family: Poison to the World

Yuan Li still has the Tongxin Gu left by Su Wanqing. She was anxious with Su Wanqing every moment, so she naturally understood the lingering worry in Su Wanqing.

"The matter is easy to handle. It's just a matter of going over and checking the other party's details. Don't worry about me taking action."

As she said that, she carried another pile of gifts and went out. When she got to the door, she didn't forget to wink at Shu Yu, "These gifts can all be regarded as rewards for my business trip."

Shuyu smiled and said, "I originally bought it to honor her."

Su Wanqing murmured a few words to Shu Yu, then she went to take a bath. When she came back, she was scented with fragrance again. She walked to Xisu's bed holding the gift, holding it up like a treasure.

Shuyu has naturally gone down to prepare the dinner table for dinner and the daily affairs of the mansion.

"Su Su, before coming to Shuntian Hou Mansion, my mother-in-law and I bought baskets of green-skinned duck eggs in Tianshui Lane. I dug out two baskets of yellow mud to pickle the salted duck eggs. They all said that the salted duck eggs need to be marinated for a longer time before they become flaky. Oil, during the Chinese New Year, I will dig out a jar and mix it with white porridge to eat."

Su Wanqing opened the butter paper and handed the red hawthorn ball wrapped in rock sugar to Xisu. She specially ordered someone to customize a wooden table that was flush with the bedside and placed a variety of snacks.

Xisu folded the corners of the collection of poems and smiled as she looked at Su Wanqing who was getting farther and farther away from her. She didn't want him to notice the same clues as her, and the coward who lacked love just wanted to stay in a corner.

"I was flipping through a book today and suddenly came across a local legend. Unexpectedly, there were all kinds of characters in Taibai Tower back then. Not only Aunt Chen, who was the concubine for Duke Sui, was the oiran there, but also Kang Hu and his mother Kang Le. The oiran who was redeemed from Taibai Tower by Liu Piaomiao."

Xisu said this, took out the legend from the bedside, and handed it to Su Wanqing.

"Although the legend is not very credible, there is a mention in it that Kang Le was originally the princess of Sui. Because the Chu State destroyed Sui and the Yun State destroyed Chu, Kang Le was bought by a high-ranking official several times because he was well-read in poetry. He wrote books and stayed with senior officials day and night, which made his mistress jealous, so he was sold to Taibai Court as a prostitute."

Su Wanqing had not forgotten how much Kang Hu hated the brothel, "It's a pity that I can't open the Tianzihao warehouse. I'm curious about how a ruthless character like Kang Hu got through his childhood. Others say that Kang Hu is a living king of hell. Catching the enemy would mean massacre and annihilation of the entire clan, but I think he is a good person."

Although he helped Manshu to show off, Su Wanqing still looked at Kanghu Dugu Qiufei's martial arts and felt that he had to endure it and he had forgotten it.

"If it is true as what this legend says, the young lady is probably in danger. Back then, Su Bai used a stratagem to instigate Sui Guo and Zhongshan State to turn against each other, and then helped Chu State send troops to attack Sui State and Zhongshan State. In the end, he effortlessly succeeded. Destroy the Chu State and enjoy the benefits."

Xisu never talks unnecessary nonsense.

Su Wanqing thought about the scene when he first met Kang Hu. He exchanged three conditions for the whereabouts of the Silver Dragon Spine. Maybe the next two conditions were related to Su Bai's destruction of the Three Kingdoms.

"Now that Subai is at the height of his power, Kang Hu will not just come to kill people. If he wants to use me to threaten Subai, he has misunderstood Subai's hard-heartedness. I think he plans to deal with me in the future, so he will use me to do things now. That’s all.”

Su Wanqing pinched a hawthorn and fed it to Xisu's mouth.

"Take one step and see three steps. I can't figure it out if there are more. Susu, did you have a name for the sword you used before?"

Su Wanqing almost never saw Xisu using the secret guard's knife. Many times, Xisu would pick flowers and leaves, holding the nearest weapon at hand.

Xisu shook her head and licked the rock sugar residue stuck on the hawthorn with her tongue. It was sour and sweet. She accidentally scratched the flesh on the inner wall of her mouth and blood came out, which made her feel familiar.

"Miss, did you really hit me with a knife?"

She is the kind of person who lives by licking blood at the tip of a knife. Now that Su Wanqing has returned to Shuntian Hou Mansion alive, she has been thinking about where she will go in the future these days. Anyway, there is not much time left, so she wants to get rid of Su Bai After decades of being manipulated, I went to places I had never been before and talked about the rest of my life.

Su Wanqing only used her brain when scheming against others. When she looked at Xisu, her head was filled with bubbles, and she was so happy that she didn't know what day it was.

"I saw that Yuanli's Longquan didn't have any characters engraved on it, so I didn't ask the knife maker to carve it on the surface of your knife. If you think of some good characters someday, just ask me to carve them."

Su Wanqing smiled innocently, making Xisu reluctant to look away.
