The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Sickly Prince Strategy Manual

When Yun Shang got enough sleep and went out again, she found that the rumors on the street had changed. They were no longer about Ning Xue, but Concubine Ning!

"Have you heard? There was a fire in the palace last night and a concubine was burned to death!" someone said mysteriously.

"Yes! I heard about it. She was the Shangshu's eldest daughter! What a sin! The younger daughter was going to marry a gangster, and the older daughter died so young. The Ning family must have offended some evil spirit!" Another person echoed, shaking his head and sighing.

"Oh! It's like I raised two daughters in vain!" someone else interrupted.

When Yun Shang heard these discussions, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times.

Concubine Ning is gone? She was filled with disbelief. That woman had always been very confident, even with her eyes raised high, as if she didn't care about anything in the world. How could she die so young?

Yun Chang glanced at Shangguan Haoyu beside her, only to see that he looked calm and did not say a word.

Yun Shang thought to herself that it would be inconvenient to ask around as there were too many people on the street and they were all gossiping. She should wait until she returned home in the evening and then ask the prince for details.

The couple walked into Yipinxian in silence.

Ning Xue was looking forward to her sister bringing her good news. She sat restlessly in the room, looking outside the door from time to time, her heart seeming to be hanging in mid-air.

However, fate played a cruel joke on her. When she heard the shocking bad news, she was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and could not believe what she heard.

"What? My sister was burned to death in the fire? How is this possible!" Ning Xue widened her eyes and her face turned pale in an instant.

How could the elder sister who had always been noble, dignified and confident in her heart suffer such a miserable fate? Ning Xue stood up suddenly, with only one thought in her mind: "No, I want to go to the palace and take a look. I want to confirm with my own eyes that this is not true!"

But after taking a few steps, she wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

With my current status being so poor, I’m afraid I can’t even enter the palace. I will only be despised and expelled.

Ning Xue was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot in the hall. She paced back and forth constantly, muttering to herself, "No, my sister won't leave like this, no..."

Her eyes were filled with panic and disbelief. She was unwilling to accept this cruel fact and only wanted to see her sister's body with her own eyes.

With the last glimmer of hope, Ning Xue finally ran to the Shangshu Mansion regardless of everything. As expected, as soon as she arrived at the door, she was ruthlessly turned away by the housekeeper.

Ning Xue was unwilling to give in, and argued with the housekeeper for a few words. At this moment, Ning's mother slowly walked out.

Mother Ning's expression was very cold. She stared at Ning Xue with a sharp gaze and asked coldly, "Ning Xue, I heard that you went to see your sister two days ago. What was the reason?"

Ning's mother also could not accept the fact that her eldest daughter was burned to death. Her heart was filled with grief and confusion. When she saw Ning Xue, she naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"I, I'm fine!" Ning Xue avoided her eyes and didn't dare to look directly into her mother's eyes. She was afraid that her mother would blame her for looking for her sister because of this matter, so she chose to conceal it and didn't dare to speak it out easily.

When Ning's mother heard this, she was immediately furious and shouted, "If you don't tell me now, I will find out sooner or later. Are you going to tell me or not?"

Ning Xue was frightened by her mother's scolding and lowered her head. After a while, she slowly raised her head and said in a very small voice: "I just asked her to think of a way to help me get rid of that gangster, so that I don't have to get married."

"Stupid!" Ning's mother scolded angrily, "How could you let her do such murder and arson? She is a member of the royal family. If she is discovered, she will lose her head! She is alone in the palace. She has to be cautious every step of the way. She is in a dangerous situation. You! You are so ignorant! I never expected you to help her in any way, but I never thought that you would want to cause trouble for her, or even harm her!"

Ning's mother became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she looked at Ning Xue with great sorrow.

Ning Xue heard this, and all the grievances in her heart burst out like a flood. She couldn't help crying, "Mother, it was my sister. It was my sister who sent the assassin to kill me first! If I wasn't lucky, I would have died in her hands long ago."

"You still feel wronged? You have ruined her reputation and done shameless things, but I, your mother, have turned a blind eye to it! Ning Xue, tell me, if a girl from an ordinary family was so shameless like you, would she still have the nerve to live?"

Mother Ning said this angrily, shook her sleeves fiercely, and turned away, "Don't come again. You don't have the status or qualifications to see your sister off for the last time!"

After hearing her mother's heartless words, Ning Xue felt as if struck by lightning and hung her head in despair.

After a long while, she dragged her heavy feet and left the Shangshu Mansion silently.

Sakura had been following her all the time, seeing her in so much pain but not knowing how to comfort her.

Ning Xue walked aimlessly on the street for a long time like a wandering spirit that had lost its soul. Her steps were weak and her eyes were empty, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. Until her feet were extremely sore, she slowly sat down on the stone pier beside the stone bridge.

"Sister, is it true that she passed away?"

Ning Xue murmured to herself, her voice full of confusion and helplessness.

I just got a clue about the evil spirit, how come my sister was suddenly burned to death? Could it be that someone was deliberately targeting her?

Ning Xue thought about it, and for some reason, Yun Shang's figure suddenly appeared in her mind!

Just as I was thinking this, I saw Yunchang and Master Shangguan passing by on the other side of the bridge. The couple lowered their heads and whispered to each other, looking very harmonious and loving.

There was actually a barely perceptible smile on Prince Shangguan's usually cold face.

Ning Xue looked at them, feeling mixed emotions: "So, Master Shangguan can laugh too. Was it Yun Shang who made him laugh? Yun Shang..."

Ning Xue suddenly felt a dull pain in her heart. This pain came from the fact that she had personally pushed Yun Shang to the side of Master Shangguan.

Her eyes fell on Shangguan Haoyu again. His graceful figure and unparalleled face were truly pleasing to the eye.

Ning Xue lowered her head and waited silently for the couple to leave.

She slowly raised her head only after their figures disappeared.

At this moment, the desire to destroy Yun Shang became stronger and stronger.

It’s so hateful that the evil spirit is so timid and cowardly that he doesn’t even dare to take this job. It’s simply outrageous!

Ning Xue gritted her teeth, stood up straight, and secretly made up her mind to find someone who could not only deal with the evil spirit but also successfully destroy Yun Shang.

Anyway, I have nothing now, so what is there to be afraid of? Thinking of this, Ning Xue no longer hesitated, stood up and walked firmly towards the direction of the Patrol Division.
