"Good, good, good! As expected of Song Pingwei's sister, she actually dares to scold me!"

Su Qingshuang showed no anger on her face, and even had a hint of a smile in the corner of her eye.

However, the next second, her expression changed instantly, becoming like a ghost from hell, with a sinister look.

"Carrot, smash her mouth!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Hu Luo, who had just been pushed to the ground by Song Siyao, had already stood up. She had never suffered such humiliation while following Su Qingshuang.

She strode up to Song Siyao, gritting her teeth, "Miss Song, you didn't grow up in the capital and don't know the rules. Since you've met my young lady today, let her teach you a lesson..."

"what!"

Before Hu Luo could finish speaking, Song Siyao kicked her, causing her to wince in pain and fall backward to the ground once again.

"Miss Su, it's your turn." Song Siyao looked coldly at Su Qingshuang and pressed her closer.

Su Qingshuang retreated step by step.

"Song Siyao, we've made an enemy of each other. I'll remember you. Just you wait!"

Su Qingshuang was very smart. She realized that she couldn't beat Song Siyao, and if she continued to pester her like this, she wouldn't gain any advantage.

There's plenty of time in the future. With her status and position, crushing Song Siyao is as easy as squeezing an ant. She'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with Song Siyao in the future.

Su Qingshuang made a harsh statement and then turned and entered the palace with Hu Luo.

"Miss, don't worry, Su Qingshuang is a notorious femme fatale in the capital," Yu Xiang reminded her from the side.

"A femme fatale? I love killing snakes and scorpions the most." Song Siyao said casually.

The carriage that Song Siyao rode in had the character "Song" printed on it. In the entire capital, only the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion was a Song family that could afford to ride in such a carriage.

They all knew Song Yu'er, so if the person riding in the carriage wasn't Song Yu'er, it could only be Song Siyao.

Su Qingshuang was deliberately targeting Song Siyao. As for their entanglement, it all started with Song Siyao's older brother, Song Pingwei.

With the banquet about to begin, Song Siyao did not linger and went straight into the palace.

The Empress's birthday banquet was held at Qiwu Palace.

Outside Qiwu Palace is a large flat area, next to which is Zuixin Lake, with a pavilion in the center of the lake.

The flat ground was surrounded by colorful flowers, making the guests feel as if they were in a garden of flowers.

When Song Siyao arrived, almost all the guests had already arrived.

Her appearance instantly silenced the once noisy Qiwu Palace.

"Who is this fairy? I don't remember there being such a beautiful woman in the capital?"

"Beautiful without being seductive, gorgeous without being vulgar, and aloof without being arrogant—that is true beauty."

"I was already quite amazed when Miss Song came in, but I didn't expect there to be someone even more beautiful than her."

"What kind of taste do you have? Comparing Miss Song to the beauty before you is simply incomparable!"

“I always felt that this fairy looked somewhat familiar… I remember now, she looks a lot like Song Siyan.”

"Song Siyan? Could she be Song Siyao? The divorced woman from the General's Mansion?"

"The General's Mansion must be blind to abandon someone so beautiful."

……

Song Siyao wore a snow-white dress today, but since she couldn't be too plain for the Empress's birthday banquet, she added a red trim to the cuffs.

The red trim was the finishing touch, making her breathtakingly beautiful.

Just as Song Siyao was looking for her place, Song Yu'er came running over, sweetly calling out, "Second sister, is this the makeup you spent several hours putting on? It's so beautiful. I know you dressed up specially to give everyone a good impression, but I don't think it was necessary at all. After all, everyone here isn't someone who only looks at appearances; they value inner beauty."

Song Yu'er grabbed Song Siyao's arm with one hand, while the nails on her other hand dug into Song Siyao's flesh, the long nails almost sinking into Song Siyao's skin.

She was consumed by jealousy, thinking that if she arrived first and amazed everyone, then Song Siyao would pale in comparison.

Unexpectedly, Song Siyao, who arrived late, instantly outshone her.

"Get your filthy hands off me!" Song Siyao's voice was icy.

"Second sister, I know you're powerful, and you can hit me, but you need to think carefully. Once everyone sees you lay a hand on me, you'll never be able to shake off the reputation of being the vicious sister."

Song Yu'er had a bright and sweet smile on her face. The people around her were too far away to hear what she was saying and thought that the two sisters were having a deep conversation.

"Do I look like someone who cares about reputation?" Song Siyao smiled slightly, and Song Yu'er felt a chill run down her spine, a bad premonition rising in her heart.

"What are you going to do?" Song Yu'er asked warily.

"Of course, I'll walk your path and leave you with nowhere to go." As Song Siyao's voice fell, he leaned back, revealing his arm that had been pinched red by Song Yu'er.

At the same time, she shouted, "Third sister, go easy on me, it hurts!"

Song Siyao's voice was filled with endless grievances and fear, as if this was not the first time she had experienced such bullying.

No one saw the smile on her face.

She could certainly choose to hit Song Yu'er, but right now, destroying Song Yu'er's reputation would be far more valuable than hitting her.

Having been with Song Siyao for so long, Yu Xiang and Song Siyao had already developed a tacit understanding.

However, just as Yu Xiang was about to reach out and catch Song Siyao, a pair of even stronger hands landed on Song Siyao's back.

With a strong lift and a twist, he pulled Song Siyao into his arms, his arm resting on her waist.

Their eyes met, and Song Siyao realized that it was Shen Pei who had saved her. She hadn't expected Shen Pei to come at this time.

The two acted intimately, their relationship clearly ambiguous.

"Thank you for saving me, Your Highness." Song Siyao's lips parted slightly, her voice as clear as pearls falling onto a jade plate.

"It was nothing," Shen Pei said calmly.

He had known Song Siyao for a long time and knew that she was skilled in martial arts, so there was no way she could have fallen just now.

However, he understood Song Siyao's intentions and would lend him a hand.

"Miss Song, you just hit Miss Song and pushed her. What were your intentions?"

"I didn't, Your Highness, I'm innocent," Song Yu'er protested.

Shen Pei grabbed Song Siyao's arm and lifted it up, his voice so cold it could freeze the entire Qiwu Palace, "Whose fingernail marks are these? Should we cut off Miss Song's hand for comparison?"

"I..." Faced with Shen Pei, who was radiating murderous intent, Song Yu'er no longer knew how to defend herself.

Besides, those nail marks were indeed hers.

"Kneel down and apologize to her!" Shen Pei's tone was domineering and left no room for argument.

"Your Highness, I really..." Song Yu'er wanted to say that the nail marks were hers, but she really didn't push Song Siyao.

"Wei Xin!"

Shen Pei called out, and Wei Xin immediately stepped forward, "Miss Song, I don't hold back when I strike, I either break an arm or something..."

"Second sister, I'm sorry!" Without any hesitation, Song Yu'er knelt down in front of Song Siyao with a thud.
