After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

"That's because... the guard who was beaten to death... has a younger brother who is still alive. He is Zhao Lu's husband, Zhao Quan. He knows the truth of the incident. Zhao Lu was defeated by Zhao Ying because of the salt road official position, so Zhao Quan wanted to use this incident to threaten Zhao Ying and seek an official position."

"It turns out that Zhao Ying had secretly had sex with the pervert Zhao Yan who was beaten to death. It was she who instructed Zhao Yan... to insult me!"

Shangguan Shu sneered, "Since it's her handle, you even know the details."

Zhao Yao frowned, thinking that Shangguan Shu was really hard to deceive. Fortunately, she had already repeated the lie in her heart.

Zhao Yao said sadly, "I know you don't believe me. It's your sister Chaolu who said that Zhao Ying is used to being spoiled, how could she be easily threatened? Of course she won't agree to Zhao Quan, and Zhao Quan is just talking. This is Zhao Ying's world. The emperor is her father, and the crown prince is her brother. Who can afford to offend her, and who dares to tell others! Zhao Quan has no choice but to ask me for help..."

"Later, Zhao Ying also found me and, following the example of her mother, Empress Xiaomin, threatened me with my closest relatives, asking me to ask Master Wufa for a poison that would kill instantly upon contact with blood, preferably one that even a coroner couldn't detect..."

"I...I...I gave it to her..."

Zhao Yao said this appropriately and then shut up.

She believed that with Shangguan Shu's intelligence, he would not be able to think of who Zhao Ying would poison.

She couldn't help but look up and secretly observe Shangguan Shu's expression.

How would you feel if you knew that the woman you loved wanted to poison your own father?

But she met Shangguan Shu's suspicious gaze.

Zhao Yao lowered her head suddenly.

At the top of my head, I heard a man's cold voice, "Huai'an, how can I believe what you say?"

Zhao Yao bit her lip, "You just need to wait for Zhao Ying to make a move, and then you will know whether what I said is true or false."

Shangguan Shu shook his head without comment.

"Why not... swear!"

Zhao Yao raised her eyes and was stunned.

"What do you mean?"

Shangguan Shu didn't answer, obviously waiting for her response.

Zhao Yao gritted her teeth secretly and risked her life. "Okay, I swear! I, Zhao Yao, swear to heaven..."

"No!"

Zhao Yao was interrupted and looked at Shangguan Shu in confusion.

Shangguan Shu Cenliang smiled and said calmly: "What I'm saying is... I want you to swear on Hu Yanxue, Zhao Ziyin, and Zhao Zihua!"

"If you tell a lie tonight, Hu Yanxue will die a miserable death! Zhao Ziyin will be a prostitute for generations, and Zhao Zihua will be a slave for generations!"

Zhao Yao's eyes widened and she screamed, "How can that be possible?!"

She looked at Shangguan Shu in disbelief and stammered, "Shangguan Shu, you are too cruel..."

Shangguan Shu chuckled, his smile full of sarcasm, "You're talking about mercy to a traitor who wants to rebel?"

"If I lay down my butcher knife...how can I give you the position of queen you want?"

Zhao Yao was speechless. She shook her head over and over again, as if only by shaking her head would Shangguan Shu stop forcing her to swear.

How could she swear on her three children?

How could it be?

Her three children are her lifeblood!

But if she didn't swear... everything she had done would be in vain.

Zhao Ying will not die, Shangguan Shu will not give up on Zhao Ying...

She could never get Shangguan Shu!

Zhao Yao suddenly felt malicious.

Why on earth would she sacrifice her life for three foreign barbarians?

They were not the ones she expected to have!

Hu Yanxue's father, the old Hun, was thirty years older than her! But he pressed on her like a pig, making her feel sick...

And his son treated her like a pig and a dog...

Before, Shangguan Shu still recognized Ziyin and Zihua as his children. Now, he also knows the truth.

These two kids are useless.

It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s just a vow, it won’t be fulfilled!

At this moment, the system spoke again, [Host, don't be afraid. What you are worried about will not happen. Everything that happens here must follow the plot of the story. Even if you swear, you cannot tamper with the plot! ]

When Zhao Yao heard this, she was completely relieved.

But she forgot, and the system also forgot, that the plot of the story had been changed.

Zhao Yao said in hatred, "Okay, I swear! If I say even a single lie tonight, then... Hu Yanxue will die a miserable death!"

"Zi Yin...will be a prostitute for generations!"

"Zihua...slaves for generations!"

"Now, do you believe it?"

Shangguan Shu nodded imperceptibly.

Then he lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Zhao Yao stood up, looked at Shangguan Shu's ugly face, and felt relieved.

He still believed it.

Little did she know that Shangguan Shu did not believe her words, but heard her say that Zhao Ying wanted to poison his father... He wondered if Zhao Ying wanted to force him to divorce, because her good cousin was coming back, she couldn't wait any longer, so she took the risk!

Shangguan Shu was burning with anger.

Zhao Yao was extremely tired and said goodbye to Shangguan Shu and left.

Shangguan Shu had no time to deal with her.

Zhao Yao didn't care. She no longer had the energy to think about anything else.

She forced herself to walk out of the main gate of the villa.

When she came, she entered through a side door. That road was too difficult to walk on, so when she left, she found another door.

As a result, as soon as I walked a few steps out of the door, I saw a sign standing in front of me.

Late at night, she couldn't see the words clearly.

She frowned and moved forward, barely able to see clearly.

"There is a well ahead. You can go around it in three steps." Neatly written words.

Zhao Yao looked behind the sign and, sure enough, there were bluestone slabs under his feet, except for that one piece that was covered with wooden boards.

Zhao Yao was about to go around it, but the moment she raised her foot, she stopped.

Then, he slowly retracted his foot.

This character is so beautiful, and the handwriting seems fresh. Could it be newly made?

Zhao Yao couldn't help but look behind her.

This is Shangguan Shu's manor... Thinking of his determination tonight, Zhao Yao frowned...

Shangguan Shu must have written it specifically to trick her!

What? There's a well in front of you! She guessed that there was not only a well in front of her, but also a pit three steps to the left and right!

Zhao Yao suddenly didn't dare to move forward... but if she retreated like this, it would take a long time...

Zhao Yao frowned and perked up.

She was used to walking on the right side, and Shangguan Shu knew that, so if he set a trap, he would set it on... the left side!

Because he knew she would go left!

So this time, she will go to the right!

Yes, on the right!

Zhao Yao made up her mind. To confirm, she leaned over, squatted down and knocked on the stone slab. It was solid.

Zhao Yao sneered.

Zhao Yao raised her foot and stepped towards the stone slab on the right.

Then he walked straight ahead...one, two, three.

"Shangguan Shu, don't treat me like a fool!!!"

Zhao Yao screamed and fell down.

The cry was like a sharp sword cutting through the silence of the night.

All the crows in the trees not far away were scared away.

In the other courtyard, Shangguan Shu heard the voice and the corners of his lips curled slightly.

When I was in a bad mood, I tortured others, and I felt much better...

Tomorrow, let’s change to Guan Zhu.
