Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

After returning to the room, Wan Shufang stared at the dowry list and felt that although the jewelry on it was luxurious, it was not good. From her impression, she felt that she had seen too many of them, which seemed to be better things.

Things like South China Sea freshwater pearls, West Sea red corals, and North Sea jade ruyi seemed commonplace to her, and Wan Shufang frowned.

Moreover, she even thought that the so-called freshwater pearls were just gypsum wrapped in river clams and were of no use. It would be better to grind them into powder and use them as medicine.

She looked around and felt that this room was particularly unfamiliar. The simple decoration made her feel that there was something weird everywhere.

Wan Shufang narrowed her eyes and looked at the carved wall. Suddenly, she felt that one part of the pattern didn't match the other patterns.

Immediately, she stepped forward and pressed the button hard. Suddenly, with a click, the door opened.

The gap opened up, and some dim light came out from inside. It turned out that there was a secret passage hidden here.

It was pitch black inside, and seemed to be emitting a bit of a decayed smell.

Wan Shufang frowned, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly turned around to get a fire box, bent down and entered the secret passage.

Unexpectedly, after taking only two steps, she was suddenly tripped by something. Wan Shufang looked closely and found that it was actually a leg.

A rotten leg with bones exposed.

When she shone the light a little deeper, she saw a woman in a white dress lying on the ground. Her face was so rotten that it was no longer recognizable. Looking at her attire, Wan Shufang frowned.

Almost instantly, she had the answer.

This is Su Qingqing!

She looked around and found that this was just a secret room, and it was not very large. There was some wine around it. Perhaps because the place was small and dry, the stench did not spread out, but why did Su Qingqing die here?

Who killed her again?

At this moment, the footsteps of a maid were heard outside the door, and there was a gentle knock on the door: "Miss, the Madam wants to see you."

Wan Shufang's whole body froze. Without time to think, she quickly blew out the oil lamp, slipped out of the secret door, pushed the wall back to its original position, and returned the bronze mirror to its place.

She turned and walked to the door, took a deep breath, suppressed the turmoil in her heart, and slowly opened the door.

"What does the Madam want from me?"

The maid outside the door lowered her head and replied, "I don't know either. I just heard Madam say she has something important to discuss with you, and asked you to come over right now."

Although she didn't say it explicitly, Wan Shufang knew that this eldest lady always had bad intentions.

Soon, Wan Shufang followed the maid to Madam Su's yard. As soon as she sat down, Madam Su put on a kind look and gently shook a handkerchief in her hand.

"Qingqing, you're about to marry into the Yun family, so you need to learn some rules and etiquette in advance. The Yun family is a prestigious family with strict rules. If you're disrespectful and the news gets out, not only will you lose face, but you'll also bring shame to our Su family."

She paused and added with feigned concern.

"Don't worry, I'll teach you myself. It's just the etiquette of greeting elders and how to behave at a banquet. It's not difficult. If you can't even learn from me, what will happen if people say I, as a mother, don't know how to teach?"

Hearing this, Wan Shufang knew that she was going to show her power, but she didn't show any concern on the surface, and sat down on the stone bench opposite her.

He took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. But I have always been like this. I can't learn those complicated rules."

Madam Su's face darkened slightly. Just as she was about to say something, Wan Shufang continued, "Besides, since Master Yun said he would marry me, he must like me just the way I am. If I changed my personality for the sake of etiquette, he might not like me anymore."

These words were like a needle, piercing Mrs. Su accurately.

Her face suddenly changed. She originally wanted to control Wan Shufang by teaching her the rules, and at the same time make her lose face in front of the Yun family and cool her down.

I didn't expect her to act so unconventionally and to rely on Yun Muyan in every word she said.

This bitch, what's so great about her marrying into the Yun family now? That Young Master Yun is just good-looking, but as a man, he is not qualified at all. How can a eunuch compare to the man who will be born to their family, Qingrou?

They are Qingrou, and they will become the crown prince's consort in the future. Who knows, they may even become the queen of Beidi.

This bitch can only envy and be jealous from now on!

"You!" Madam Su could no longer pretend to be gentle. She slammed her handkerchief on the table and said sternly, "You ungrateful thing, do you really think Young Master Yun can protect you forever? If you are disrespectful after marrying and are disliked by the Yun family, I will see you cry so hard!"

"I was trying to teach you out of kindness, but you started to talk back. You're truly a wild girl who has no mother's upbringing and is not worthy of being on the stage."

A barrage of insults came at her, but Wan Shufang just looked up at her coldly, her eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water, without a single ripple.

The eldest lady's anger grew even more intense when she saw Wan Shufang slowly stand up and said calmly, "Madam, if you have nothing else to say, I will go back first."

After that, she turned and left without even bothering to say goodbye.

The eldest lady was so angry that she slammed the table behind her, and her curses echoed in the yard, but Wan Shufang did not stop and walked straight out of the yard.

As soon as Wan Shufang walked out of the eldest lady's yard, she saw Su Qingrou, wearing a plain dress, hurriedly getting into an inconspicuous green cloth sedan chair.

She frowned slightly, not knowing where Su Qingrou was going dressed like this, and on a whim she quietly followed her.

The sedan chair drove out of the city and headed straight for the military camp in the northern suburbs.

Wan Shufang watched from afar as Su Qingrou was led into the camp gate. The soldiers treated her with great respect. She didn't treat her like an ordinary young lady from a wealthy family, but more like a general's wife.

But how could Su Qingrou be related to the military camp?

Wan Shufang became more and more confused. After the sedan chair left, she wanted to go forward to find out what was going on. However, as soon as she reached the camp gate, she was stopped by two guards holding spears.

"Stop! This is the secret base of the Northern Di army. No entry for outsiders!" The guard looked at her with a serious expression and sharp eyes.

what?

Northern Di?

When Wan Shufang heard the word "Beidi", she felt her temples jump violently.

It felt like a needle had pierced into my mind, and some vague fragments flashed through my mind.

A misty cliff, a long sword piercing the body, and countless fights.

Blood-red blade.

In an instant, Wan Shufang felt a sharp pain in her heart, and all the forgotten memories emerged in her mind, running around everywhere. But when she tried to sort them out, those memories gradually dissipated like smoke.

Seeing her pale face, the guard asked sternly, "Who are you, and what are you doing wandering around here?"

Wan Shufang endured the headache and could only suppress the turmoil in her heart. She slowly took a few steps back and said, "Sorry, I came to the wrong place."

After saying that, she turned and walked away slowly.
