The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Upon hearing this, Yunlou drank the poisonous blood without saying a word.

"I don't know what you were thinking. Such filthy blood just happened to catch the eyes of people like you. But it's just as well. It's because of you, a bunch of trash, that my plan can be carried out."

After the man said this, he was about to leave, dragging his long clothes.

"You've never told me what you want," Yunlou asked, his voice hoarse as he looked at the man's back. The man turned around, his smile strange yet gentle, "Nothing. I want... just chaos. That's all."

"Chaos?" the man was puzzled.

"Yes, don't you think that this world is too peaceful? I want to make it chaotic. Then I want to sacrifice my loved ones with blood." The man's voice was ethereal.

"Relatives?"

"You don't need to know too much. I'm a little tired. Goodbye." With that, the man in red disappeared into the valley. Yunlou held the bottle of poisonous blood in his hand, which was no longer filled, and seemed to be lost in thought.

The capital city is always in turmoil due to various things. Even if it is just a small matter, it will spread like wildfire.

However, there have been many big dramas in Beijing recently.

Everyone knew that Situ Honglei was going to marry the Sixth Prince. The wedding was scheduled for three days later. However, on this day, news spread from the Situ family that Situ Honglei had been poisoned.

For a moment, everyone was in chaos.

At Lan Qinglou, Situ Yaorao was directing the people who came to renovate her house to complete the final steps when she saw General Situ arrive with his tearful wife.

General Situ looked at the furnishings here and frowned: "Is this the place you want to stay?"

"What's wrong?" Situ Yaorao looked puzzled.

"Humph! How shameful."

"Father, if you think I'm embarrassing, you can just not come." Situ Yaorao sneered.

"Miss, the osmanthus cake is ready...Ah! Your servant is here to pay her respects to the master." Lian'er was making osmanthus cake in the kitchen. When she saw General Situ coming, she was so scared that she knelt on the ground.

General Situ only glanced at Lian'er, then said to Situ Yaorao, "Your sister has been poisoned."

"Oh? The Situ family is heavily guarded, how could they be poisoned?"

"It was my father's enemy back then. Hong Lei was poisoned to save me." General Situ frowned as he spoke of this. He was deeply saddened. Situ Yaorao sneered inwardly upon hearing this.

"Father, why did you ask me to come?"

"Go back and see your sister." General Situ sighed.

"Father, although my sister is poisoned, I believe you must be able to cure her. Why do you insist on me going back? I will go back to see her when she is better." Situ Yaorao smiled but her heart was not happy. Then she looked at her mother who was crying beside her and sneered in her heart. There was clearly something fishy going on.

If she really had been asked to go back and take a look, General Situ wouldn't have come in person. And Situ Honglei's mother shouldn't have come along. If Madam Situ hadn't come, there was something wrong.

Are you kidding me? How could she want to go back even though she knew there was a problem?

Situ Yaorao was thinking clearly, but she ignored General Situ's indifference.

Seeing that Situ Yaorao didn't want to go back, General Situ said coldly: "Your mother is still taking care of Hong Lei. If you don't go back, do you hope that your mother will die of exhaustion beside Hong Lei?"

General Situ's words were strange, but they were also a reminder to Situ Yaorao that if she didn't go back with him, he would definitely not let Madam Situ go.

"Father is so kind. He didn't let the maids take care of her, but instead asked my mother to do it. Well, I'll just go back with father. I hope... you won't regret your decision today." Situ Yaorao said to Lian'er, "Lian'er, when Yusheng and the others come back, tell them they don't have to wait for me. Just say I'll be back soon."

"Yes, Miss." Lian'er lowered her head, not daring to look at General Situ.

Since she couldn't escape, Situ Yaorao didn't resist anymore, but followed General Situ.

On the way, General Situ, Situ Honglei's mother, and she were all silent. When they arrived at Situ's house, General Situ said, "Go back and rest for a while, then I will tell you about Honglei."

"Master..." Situ Honglei's mother hesitated.

"Okay, let Yaorao have a rest first. After all, she just came back." General Situ advised kindly. The woman glanced at Situ Yaorao, then followed General Situ.

When Situ Yaorao came back, the first thing she did was to visit Madam Situ. When Situ Yaorao returned, Madam Situ was arranging flowers. Seeing Situ Yaorao coming, she cut off the flowers in her hand and stood up and said, "Yaorao? Why are you back? Do you know..."

"My father said that if I don't come back, he will ask my mother to take care of Situ Honglei. I don't know what he means, but I don't want to make things difficult for my mother." Situ Yaorao said.

Upon hearing this, Madam Situ's face turned pale with anger: "Yao Rao, leave quickly. Do you know what those people want from you?"

"kindness?"

"That girl Honglei got some poison from somewhere and ate it herself, then lied to your father and said she was poisoned. And there is only one person in the world who can cure this poison." Mrs. Situ's voice trembled when she said this.

"Who?" Situ Yaorao asked curiously.

"Your little uncle." Mrs. Situ gritted her teeth.

Situ Yaorao was stunned when she heard this.

"Over the years, your uncle has remained indifferent to worldly affairs. Asking him to help would be a pipe dream. Furthermore, there are too many barriers between your father and your uncle. That's why I brought you back."

"If you just ask your uncle for help, it's not impossible. Although it's disgusting to let Situ Honglei plot, it's also for our safety. It's not a bad idea." Situ Yaorao said lightly.

Madam Situ shook her head upon hearing this. "How could you possibly know the venom of the Red Tears, child? Your uncle can undo the poison, but he has a request."

"Request?" Situ Yaorao was stunned.

"Yes, he wants you to marry him." When she said this, Mrs. Situ's face looked extremely ugly.

Not to mention Madam Situ, even Situ Yaorao was in a terrible state. Although General Situ and his uncle were not related by blood, was he crazy?

Why would he marry his daughter to his sworn brother?

"Mom, is he crazy?"

"Yao Rao, I don't know whether he is crazy or your uncle is crazy. But this matter cannot be agreed to. No matter what your father threatens you with, it is not allowed!"

Madam Situ said sternly.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao nodded silently.

After Situ Yaorao finished talking to Madam Situ, she returned to her room. Her heart was in turmoil because she had never expected that General Situ would make such a plan.

Do you really not treat her as your own daughter?

"Yao Rao, are you there?" Just when Situ Yao Rao was furious, she heard the voice of General Situ. After hearing this, Situ Yao Rao calmed down and said, "I'm here, please come in, father."

Afterwards, General Situ walked into Situ Yaorao's room.

Looking at Situ Yaorao, he said softly, "Yaorao, how has your father treated you over the years?"

"Very good." Situ Yaorao said lightly.

Hearing what Situ Yaorao said, General Situ smiled with satisfaction: "Although I have cherished Hong Lei over the years, I have never forgotten to care about you. Yaorao, Hong Lei is in danger now. There is something that father has to ask for your help."
