The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

Su Qingcang took a long time to stop coughing. He adjusted his breathing silently, then looked at Su Qingning and asked uncertainly:

"Ning girl, what did you just say? Who did you kill?"

As Su Qingcang asked, he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that he had just heard it wrong.

Unfortunately, however, Su Qingning's answer shattered his hope of getting away with it.

"Tian Dao Sect." Su Qingning's answer was cold and ruthless. "I killed all those people from Tian Dao Sect who came to the Su family before."

"What?!!!"

This time, Su Qingcang could no longer control his excitement. He widened his eyes in shock, looked at Su Qingning in disbelief, and asked tremblingly, "Kill...kill them all?"

"Yeah." Su Qingning nodded.

Su Qingcang took a deep breath and asked, still unwilling to give up: "That...the eldest lady of the Tiandao Sect, and Elder Wang, were also killed?"

"Of course I killed them all." Su Qingning glanced at Su Qingcang and said speechlessly, "Since we are going to kill them, we must completely eradicate them. Do I really want to leave trouble for myself and ask them to go back for reinforcements?"

"Uh..." Su Qingcang choked for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "You make sense."

After a moment of silence, Su Qingcang asked worriedly, "Ning girl, are you sure you didn't leave any evidence behind?"

It’s not that Su Qingcang is timid, but that their Su family really can’t bear the wrath of the Tiandao Sect.

"Probably not." Su Qingning said, "Not only were their bodies torn to pieces, but their souls were also reduced to ashes and scattered. Even if the Tiandao Sect was powerful, they wouldn't be able to find anything."

"Hiss!" Su Qingcang sucked in a breath of cold air, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes when he looked at Su Qingning. It seemed that he did not expect that his granddaughter, who usually looked so well-behaved, could be so cruel and not even give her a chance to reincarnate.

"That's good."

Su Qingcang felt relieved. As long as the Tiandao Sect couldn't find anything wrong with the Su family, he could just kill Elder Wang and the eldest daughter! He didn't have a good impression of the people from the Tiandao Sect anyway.

Besides, it was Su Qingning who did it. In Su Qingcang's view, whatever his granddaughter did was right. If she wanted to kill someone, it must be because the other party provoked her first, so her death did not deserve it.

I have to say that Su Qingcang is right, but he is indeed very protective of his shortcomings and also very unreasonable.

Su Qingning was still a little surprised until she left the main courtyard. She didn't expect that Su Qingcang, apart from being a little shocked, had no intention of blaming her at all.

"Tsk, I didn't expect the old man to be so protective of his shortcomings."

A happy smile flashed in Su Qingning's eyes, and the last trace of grudge against Su Qingcang in her heart disappeared, which was regarded as an acceptance of this grandfather.

On the way back to Jinyuan, Su Qingning saw that every servant of the Su family was busy preparing for the New Year.

Ever since Su Qingning became the young master of the Su family, the other members of the Su family have become much more respectful to her. Whenever they meet her, they will greet her politely.

Just like now, when those busy servants see Su Qingning, they will stop and salute Su Qingning respectfully.

"I've met the third lady."

"Yeah." Su Qingning responded lightly and let them continue with their work.

Just like that, with greetings again and again, Su Qingning finally returned to Jinyuan.

And in Jinyuan, everyone was busy.

"It's crooked, it's crooked, move a little to the left."

Xia Mian stood aside and directed Xuan Shiyi to paste Spring Festival couplets on both sides of the courtyard gate.

In the courtyard, Chunyu was sitting at a stone table cutting colored paper, while Qiuyue and Dongxue were weaving lanterns; and Xuan Twelve and others were busy pasting the word "Fu" and the colored paper cut by Chunyu on the doors and windows.

As for Aunt Zhang, she was preparing the New Year's Eve dinner while teaching Yun Ruopiao and Su Qingyu how to make dumplings, while Ying Wu and Ying Liu were helping Aunt Zhang, one was cutting vegetables and the other was making a fire.

Everything in front of her looked so warm that Su Qingning suddenly felt a little timid, afraid that her sudden appearance would destroy this warmth.

However, even though Su Qingning stood there without moving, she was soon discovered by Xia Mian who was standing at the gate of the yard.

"Miss San, you're back!"

Xia Mian shouted happily, and everyone in the yard who heard the sound ran out happily.

"Sister~"

"Ning Ning~"

Su Qingyu and Yun Ruopiao ran towards Su Qingning at the same time. The mother and son stood on the left and right, one hugging the waist and the other hugging the neck. The expressions on their faces were exactly the same, both full of joy and dependence.

Su Qingning was surrounded by people and returned to Jinyuan. Looking at the happy expressions on everyone's faces, she felt that her previous timidity was really a bit silly. She was obviously a member of this big family! How could she destroy this warmth?

Indeed, Su Qingning was a little worried. What she didn't know was that in the hearts of everyone in Jinyuan, she was the backbone of this big family, and they gathered here because of her.

An hour later, with the help of Yingwu and Yingliu, Aunt Zhang finally prepared the New Year's Eve dinner. There were two tables in total, with ten dishes on each table, which meant perfection.

On this side, Su Qingning reunited with her family and had the New Year's Eve dinner; on the other side, Mo Lintian first returned to the Prince Lin's Mansion, took a bath, changed into new clothes, and then took a carriage into the palace.

The banquet had already been set up in the palace. The emperor, empress, concubines, princes and princesses had all arrived, except Mo Lintian.

About a quarter of an hour later, Mo Lintian finally arrived and walked into the hall slowly.

"Greetings, my Royal Brother and his wife." Mo Lintian first bowed to the Emperor and Empress before apologizing to Mo Linyuan, "My Royal Brother, I'm sorry. I went out for something a few days ago and only returned this afternoon. I'm late, so please forgive me."

"No problem." Mo Linyuan smiled nonchalantly, "I'm already very happy that you're willing to come, Lintian. What's the harm in waiting a little longer?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the imperial concubine and the second prince suddenly turned a little ugly. They had originally wanted to make a fuss about Mo Lintian's lateness, but they didn't expect that Mo Linyuan would let it go so easily.

Their plan failed before it was even implemented, which was really unacceptable.

"Brother, it seems that father still dotes on the uncle as always!" Second Prince Mo Jingxuan glanced at Mo Lintian with a faint gaze, then looked at Crown Prince Mo Jingyu with a half-smile, whispering to sow discord: "You'd better be careful. With the degree of father's favor for the uncle, as long as the uncle is willing, the throne is within his grasp. I'm afraid your position as crown prince will be unstable!"

Hearing Mo Jingxuan's words of sowing discord, Mo Jingyu rolled his eyes speechlessly in his heart. He was too lazy to pay attention to his younger brother.
