When leaving Su Qingwan's courtyard, the concubines no longer chatted as they did before. They all hung their heads and looked pale.

Aunt Qin and Yan Liu walked at the end. Looking at the people in front, Yan Liu lowered her voice and said:

"Madam, this trick of killing a chicken to scare the monkey is really good."

Aunt Qin: "Aunt Huang is just a prominent figure. I'm afraid she was taken advantage of this time."

Yan Liu sighed softly upon hearing this:

"She can only blame herself for not having a brain."

The two sisters looked at each other and dispersed.

After the concubines left, Su Qingwan returned to her room to rest. Seeing her tired appearance, Miao Hua could not help but say:

"Miss, you are such a fool. Just leave these things to me and Sister Qinshu. You are already injured, why don't you take a good rest?"

In fact, she was more worried about what impact today's events would have on Su Qingwan if they were to be spread.

People outside would probably say that the young lady is too cruel. Moreover, since the young lady came into the family, several concubines have had accidents one after another. People who gossip would probably think that the young lady is jealous.

"I have to step in on this matter."

Su Qingwan rubbed his brows and said.

She also has to give an explanation to the princess.

Furthermore, the people in the mansion really need to be punished, otherwise there will be a next time.

As for fame, she doesn't care about it anymore. People don't live for fame.

"Let Butler Zhou bring some snacks and interrogate Aunt Huang."

Right now, Aunt Huang was mentally broken, so it was easier to get information out of her.

Perhaps because she had spent too much energy, Su Qingwan developed a high fever that night and she dreamed of some things from her past life.

She had killed people with her own hands.

At that time, she was kidnapped by refugees, and Qinshu died to protect her. Those people reached out to her, and she pierced one of them's temple with her hairpin.

That was the first time she killed someone with her own hands. She didn't feel afraid at the time, but after she was rescued, she was so scared that she couldn't sleep every night.

She wanted to seek Zhou Shulan's comfort, but what awaited her was only an impatient face, and he said she was being pretentious.

Su Qingwan felt increasingly colder, and she curled up unconsciously.

In the middle of the night when she was delirious with fever, she felt someone holding her in a warm embrace.

The next day, Su Qingwan woke up in Yan Mingjue's arms. When she opened her eyes, she saw Yan Mingjue's bloodshot eyes.

Before she could react, a big hand reached out and touched her forehead:

"The fever is gone."

Yan Mingjue had no expression on his face.

"My Lord, did you not go to duty?"

Su Qingwan glanced outside and saw that it was already dawn.

"I'm taking leave." He said coldly with a sullen face, "You're becoming more and more capable. You didn't even tell me you were sick."

"The people serving you are all dead."

He didn't come back until midnight yesterday. If he hadn't come to see Su Qingwan out of concern, this idiot would have burned to death alone.

This was not the main reason why he was angry. What made him most angry was that when Su Qingwan was confused last night, she actually called out Zhou Shulan's name several times.

At that moment, Yan Ming could not describe his feelings in words.

Bitterness, anger, jealousy...

He wanted to walk away, but when he saw the sparkling look in her eyes, he finally stayed.

Su Qingwan didn't know this. She subconsciously leaned towards Yan Mingjue's chest and said softly:

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me this time."

Seeing that Yan Ming would not respond, she spoke softly again:

"I'm already feeling so bad, please stop being so mean to me."

Yan Mingjue: "..."

Looking at her soft and coquettish appearance, Yan Mingjue's jealousy dissipated a lot.

He suddenly reached out and pressed Su Qingwan tightly against his chest to prevent her from seeing the gloom in his eyes.

So what if I’m thinking about someone else?

Now, she is his wife, and can only be his wife!
