Chapter 1059: Enemies Approaching the City II
Zheng Tianwu was a little moved after hearing this sentence.
His handsome face was still tense. “Let him kneel for another three days and three nights. Only then, I will allow him to get up! I’ll see if he dares to be rude to Yuan’er in the future. Luckily, Yuan’er is alright this time. If anything happened to her, I will not forgive that person even if he is my son!”
The elder lowered his head and stopped talking.
The loyal ministers that had advised the marquis that day were all killed. This was the only way that could protect him right now.
He was also helpless.
The stillness of the marquis’ manor was suddenly broken by an anxious voice.
“Marquis, something is wrong. We have a big problem!”
The guard rushed in from the door in a panicked manner. He was very anxious and his cold sweat was dripping. He hurriedly kneeled on the ground. “The spirit beasts have besieged us!”
The spirit beasts had besieged them?
Zheng Tianwu sneered and was very unimpressed. “Which spirit beasts dare to besiege us? We don’t have to care about that. Someone will eventually shoot those d.a.m.n animals to death!”
Marquis City had been peaceful for many years. However, the peacefulness and calmness were destined to be broken on this fateful day.
In the inner court of the royal palace.
You Lan’s face was pale. She slightly pursed her lips. She then looked coldly at the woman sitting in front of her.
The woman’s posture was sophisticated and perfect. There was a small smile on her face. She wore a purple dress that made her seem elegant and n.o.ble.
“Sister-in-law, did you send people to follow Yiyi? Did you complain about her?”
Shen Die smiled elegantly and calmly. Every move she made was so pleasing to the eye.
“So? But I did not say anything to your elder brother. I just sent someone to tell Zheng Tianwu. Then, he went to find your elder brother.”
“Why? Why are you doing this?” You Lan suddenly stood up. Her body was trembling with anger. She was very angry. “What’s the benefit of letting Gu Yiyi be Elder Brother’s concubine? You should be happy when she left. Why are you doing this?”
Shen Die slightly smiled and put the gla.s.s on the table.
“Did you think that your elder brother can tolerate her so much?”
You Lan was speechless.
“She has run away again and again. The eldest prince has lost his patience with her. The eldest prince did have true feelings toward her so, he had tolerated her and treasured her. However, she has really angered him this time. He will surely get her no matter what!”
“So, isn’t it better if she leaves?” You Lan bit her lower lip and asked.
“No, you are wrong.” Shen Die shook her head. “The eldest prince is thinking of her because he did not manage to get her. I know men better than anyone. He will only lose interest in her once he has slept with Gu Yiyi. Otherwise, his mind and attention will always be on her for his whole life.”
You Lan felt cold all over her body. This was the first time she had gotten to know that Shen Die who was usually calm and elegant could be so scheming and calculating.
So scheming and calculating to the point that it was horrifying!
It was impossible for Shen Die to not love Elder Brother!
Back then, when her elder brother was in danger, she had risked her life to save him!
How deep was her love for her elder brother that she had even risked her life to save him? On the contrary, how perverted she was to push her man to another woman’s bed?
No one could go to such an extent as her…
