The passers-by are vicious

The Five Emperors' Palace

The staff was walking back and forth in front of the table, but when they saw Chu Yueze come in with a cold face, they hurried to greet him.

"Fifth Prince, the things you asked me to investigate have been confirmed."

Chu Yueze took the notebook he handed over, looked at the black words clearly written on it, and closed it with a snap.

Leng Jun's eyes were like a cold winter. "He is indeed a jackal."

"But we'll have to wait a little longer at this point."

"Yes."

Palace

The emperor was drawing on paper, while Chu Yueze was sitting on a chair in the hall with an indifferent look on his face. He was so cold that the eunuch behind him shivered.

"Huang'er, it's time for you to change your character. Look at how scared the little guy behind you is."

Emperor Chu Xiongjie threw the brush into the pen holder and wiped his hands with the handkerchief handed to him by the eunuch behind him.

Only then did he open the booklet that Chu Yueze handed to him, and his expression did not seem to be at all surprised.

He glanced at it briefly and put it on the table beside him.

"I know about this, but I have to keep him for a while longer because I still need him for something else."

"You can do whatever you want with him after he has played his final role."

Chu Yueze didn't say anything, just nodded.

"My son, it's time for you to get married. If you are so quiet, you might not be able to marry the girl of your dreams." Chu Xiongjie said with a teasing look on his face, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

As an old father, I am somewhat worried whether my eldest son with such a personality can marry the girl of his dreams.

But even if he can't wait for the girl he likes to be happy, given his good character as a son, he will probably snatch her back.

"I heard that you've become interested in a dancer recently."

"Yes, she is...very good." Chu Yuezejun said in a cold voice with a bit of discomfort on his face.

"It seems like he likes it very much." Chu Xiongjie laughed.

But he knew that his son would not say anything if he didn't care.

"But I heard that she is a dancer and her status is quite low." Chu Xiongjie said thoughtfully, but he was actually secretly observing Chu Yueze's expression.

Chu Yueze's icy face really changed, his eyelashes trembled slightly, "But... I like it very much."

"Okay, as long as you like it."

"Hahaha."

Flower Pavilion

Ever since the incident, Jiang Wanwan no longer had the heart to entertain guests, but instead focused all her attention on Jiang Wanli. The madam did not stop her when she found out.

Standing in front of Jiang Wanli's door again, Jiang Wanwan was gently knocked "Sister."

"What are you doing here again? Aren't you afraid of being infected?" There was no emotion in Jiang Wanli's voice.

"Don't come here again."

Faced with Jiang Wanli's urging, Jiang Wanwan simply put the things at the door.

She knew that appearing in front of Jiang Wanli now would only make her more sad.

Waiting for Jiang Wanwan to go away

"Hey."

Jiang Wanli just opened the door, and she picked up the box from the ground with a white veil on her face.

Her eyes were filled with sorrow as she looked at the figure that no longer appeared and closed the door.

Jiang Wanwan was sitting on a pillar not far from the door, covering her mouth with her hands, tears dripping into her hands. She began to sob slowly with her shoulders shaking.

When she calmed down, she walked away with a normal expression on her face, but her slightly red eyes revealed the fact that she had cried.

The originally beautiful face became dull due to the haggardness of the past few days, like a night-shining pearl that had lost its luster.

Lin Mansion

Since the poetry meeting, Lin Jinyao has always met Chu Yueze intentionally or unintentionally, and of course, they were all very natural encounters.

Once again hit by Chu Yueze's cold attitude, Lin Jinyao returned home unwillingly.

Sitting in front of the bronze mirror in her boudoir, she combed her hair while looking at the beautiful face in it, and then thought about the cold treatment she had received these days.

Qingli's face twisted for a moment, and she slammed the comb heavily onto the table.

"Why, why is it that the Fifth Prince Chu Yueze..."

A figure fell from the ceiling again and knelt on one knee.

"How are you doing what I asked you to do?" Lin Jinyao asked in a cold voice.

“………”.

Lin Jinyao raised her eyebrows and said, "Jiang Wanli has been poisoned. What about her sister?"

“….”

"She's lucky she didn't get infected."

"..."

"But I don't believe she will always be so lucky." Lin Jinyao said with gritted teeth and a look of jealousy.

But his face soon returned to normal, as if that moment just now was just an illusion.

Her voice was soft but her words were chilling.

"But a woman with a ruined face seems to have no reason to live. You should understand what I mean."

Watching the figure disappear into the house again.

Lin Jinyao picked up the comb and continued to comb her long hair, looking at the face in the mirror with a curved shape.

"I'll add more fuel to the fire."

"Jiang Wanwan, I don't believe that your spirit can remain intact like this."
