After his wife and daughter died tragically, the scumbag prince's hair turned white overnight

Gu Shi's expression suddenly turned cold, and he snorted, "If she wanted to hide, how could she be easily found by you?"

It seems that the master's face is not very good.

The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I just couldn't say them.

As he hesitated, Gu Shi again ordered in a cold voice, "Send the people who went south back. No matter how fast she runs, she can't outrun your horses. If you can't find her, she must still be hiding in some corner of the imperial city. It's dark under the lamp, and she's played tricks before."

By the end, Gu Shi had lost his patience.

"She's grown so strong that she dares not come back for three days. She'd better not come back in the future."

Shen Muxi looked at the man's expression, trying to find a trace of the familiar look on his face.

But no...

Perhaps after returning to the capital from Danyang, Gu Shi, who was willing to give her warmth, would stay in Danyang forever.

The soul has no heart and no consciousness.

But at this moment, Shen Muxi felt that his already aching heart seemed to be torn open with a bloody wound.

The cold wind blew in.

She naturally knew what he meant by "the darkest part under the lamp".

Three months ago, she and Xiaoxiao had just returned to Prince Rong's Mansion for three days. They were still unfamiliar with everything in Prince Rong's Mansion. It was Su Liuxi who took the initiative to find her.

Shen Muxi had already known about Gu Shi and Su Liuxi's past from other family members of Prince Rong's Mansion. Although she felt resentful about her infidelity, she was not on guard against her.

So Su Liuxi personally went to her courtyard and invited her to go to the Fahua Temple to pray and burn incense for the Rong Prince's Mansion. She only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

The noble families in all dynasties have more or less had some reverence for metaphysical matters.

She also wanted to take this opportunity to learn about the daily lives of the noble ladies in the capital so that she could quickly integrate into the family and not bring trouble to Prince Rong's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, they were blocked by refugees on the road, who separated her, Su Liuxi and a group of servants.

Someone pushed her aside and stepped on her ankle. Her ankle made a crisp sound, followed by a piercing pain.

When the refugees dispersed, only a mess remained at the place. Where was the trace of Su Liuxi?

At that time, her injured ankle had swollen to the size of a steamed bun.

But because she was worried that Su Liuxi had met with an accident, she didn't bother to see a doctor. She limped back to Prince Rong's Mansion to report the news and asked Gu Shi to send someone to look for Su Liuxi.

Unexpectedly, she returned to the mansion in a state of disarray, only to be greeted by the servants she had lost on the way, who looked like they were waiting for a show, as well as the sobbing Su Liuxi, and...

Gu Shi slapped him coldly.

He showed no mercy and beat her until she saw stars, her ears rang, and she even had a nosebleed.

After Gu Shi landed the second slap, Su Liuxi seemed to be frightened and reacted only belatedly. She raised her hand slightly to stop Gu Shi from slapping her for the third time.

"Brother Gu Shi, I really got separated from my sister by accident. Please don't blame me."

"You're still defending her at this time?"

That was the first time Gu Shi spoke harshly to Su Liuxi, but his eyes were not on Su Liuxi.

Instead, his gaze fixed on her, as if he wanted to devour her alive. "I never thought you would bring such dirty thoughts to your house. You're playing the thief crying 'stop thief' and playing dirty. Is that fun?"

Then, without even giving her a chance to argue, he made her kneel in the ancestral hall and copy scriptures.

Reflect for three days.

The reason is: As a member of the Rongjun Prince's Mansion, he showed up in public, which was a disgrace to the reputation of the Rongjun Prince's Mansion.

She didn't understand at the time, clearly...

When the Rong Prince's Mansion had not yet regained her favor, it was common for her to disguise herself as a man and work hard outside for the livelihood of her family.

Why are there so many rules now that I’m back in the capital?

Later, she learned that Su Liuxi came back crying that day, and the people around her said some ambiguous words, which made Gu Shi suspect that she had asked someone to tease Su Liuxi.

Ah...

Fortunately, Gu Shi prides himself on being smart, but he is completely irrational when it comes to Su Liuxi's affairs.

Her injured ankle was delayed in treatment because she was forced to kneel in the ancestral hall during those days, leaving her with a limp.

She thought that if she hadn't been limping so badly on the rugged mountain road, perhaps she wouldn't have been so easily captured and killed by the bandits...

Thinking of the torture he suffered when he died tragically, Shen Muxi's gaze involuntarily fell in a certain direction behind him.

She missed Xiaoxiao.

When Su Liuxi was "teased" and was punished to kneel and copy scriptures in the ancestral hall, her Xiaoxiao was once taken out on by her.

A five-year-old child who couldn't even recognize all the characters was copying scriptures and praying for Su Liuxi, under the pretext of absolving his mother of her sins...

Because of the wrong pen-holding posture, the little palm was beaten red and swollen by the old woman who was supervising the copying of scriptures...

Thinking that her daughter might be the target of anger again, Shen Muxi's emotions, which had finally calmed down, began to boil over again.

When she just came back, Shen Muxi didn't understand why the servants were always disrespectful to her and Xiaoxiao.

Only now did she have a sudden realization. The phrase "as a member of Prince Rong's Mansion" was implying to her that she was just a servant in Prince Rong's Mansion?

A slave, who is nobler than who?

While his thoughts were churning, Gu Shi had already told Zhuifeng what to do and headed in another direction.

Shen Muxi wanted to go see her daughter, but her soul was still out of control and she was forced to follow Gu Shi.

The strange thing was that although the sun was shining brightly, she didn't feel any burning sensation.

Following Gu Shi all the way, we arrived at an exquisite courtyard in the south of Prince Rong's Mansion.

The sound of a dog barking inside made Shen Muxi furious.

She was all too familiar with the dog's barking.

This is Su Liuxi's wolfdog!!

This wolfdog has a loud barking voice and a ferocious temperament.

On the day she returned, she saw it bite several servants in the mansion.

But because of Su Liuxi's protection and for Gu Shi's face, the old lady always picked it up high and put it down gently. The servant who was bitten was even fined for provoking the wolfhound.

After a few times of this, the servants realized that the wolfdog's status was comparable to that of half the master, and they dared not speak out.

Some even allowed the vicious dog to run rampant in Prince Rong's mansion in order to please Su Liuxi.

A month ago, Xiaoxiao's Snowball was bitten to death by this vicious dog in front of Xiaoxiao.
