Abandoned Daughter from a Noble Family: Poison to the World

Chapter 73 Am I no better than a cripple?

Su Qingrou was still dressed in bright red and looked conspicuous. Marquis Shuntian didn't say anything to her when he saw her. She went to the martial arts training ground after breakfast as usual.

"I wish you to be kind and considerate, and I hope that Lord Marquis will show you my condolences."

A large number of officials crowded into the Hou Mansion, and the crowd was completely blocked, except that some princes were missing.

Yesterday morning, the imperial censor accused ten princes of lingering in brothels. The emperor was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. Not to mention, King Mu made peace with the princess overnight.

One thing was worse than the other. The emperor was not in good health and was so angry that he did not go to court for several days. It was just because of Xisu's pain that no news was revealed.

Su Wanqing held the peony in her hand. The petals were like the softest down on a swan, light and delicate.

"Go back and tell Manshu that King Ning has a ship transporting gold, silver and jewelry that will dock at the Ruanshui Ferry tonight."

She took out a rolled letter from her sleeve and stuffed it into a green bamboo tube.

Opposite was a young man wearing a Monkey King mask. She cupped her fists towards Su Wanqing, looked at something, and climbed out of the courtyard wall four or five times.

It was estimated that Su Yaoqin was not dead and was staying at the base of the black network. Xisu wanted to rescue her, so she couldn't believe Su Bai's lies.

Subai's words were not made clear.

If Xisu comes back with broken hands and feet, that is also a return.

"Miss Su Er, are you in trouble?"

Pei Xianyu opened a curtain of weeping willows in front of her, and Qianran stepped out from the green trees. Her face was like a crown of jade, with jade trees facing the wind.

It's just that Su Wanqing's eyes were unclear when he saw it.

"It's still early, and there aren't many officials here, but you have a sharp eye and recognized me."

Su Wanqing leaned against the white marble mast on the side of the peony garden, his teeth were like braided shells, and he smiled so loudly that the whole nation was captivated.

The smile in Pei Xianyu's eyes did not diminish, and he bowed to her Yingying, "Miss, you are unparalleled in beauty, and you have such a charming and innocent look. Even if you were wearing your skin, I wouldn't be able to behave like this."

Su Wanqing pinched the poisonous needle in his hand. The Pei Xianyu in front of him was relatively easy to deal with. As the saying goes, it took three years for a scholar to rebel, but now Pei Xianyu is just a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.

Su Wanqing didn't take such a person seriously even though he was a fifth-grade official.

What's more, he is a weak scholar with no strength.

"Then, Bachelor Pei, please tell me, how can you help me?"

When Su Wanqing was alive, the only things he cared about were his relatives and friends.

"Young lady is well-dressed and well-fed, yet she is so worried and troubled. I guess it is not a material worry. The things that trouble people in the world are nothing more than two things. One is power, and the other is money."

Pei Xianyu's hand touched the stamen of a Wei purple flower, and the bright yellow stamen touched his hand.

"I am not short of money."

"I have an old friend in the palace. He told me that the day before yesterday, His Majesty summoned the daughter-in-law of Shuntian Hou Mansion to question her. He said that there was a fire in Taibai Court that day and someone identified her as the culprit."

It was nothing, but it was only because King Mu was so troubled.

Su Wanqing grabbed the petals of the peony and pulled them out one by one, "So what? I'm living a good life now. I can't die as Shuntianhou is here."

Pei Xianyu was very patient, "I can see that you want to enter the palace, miss. I am also capable of accomplishing this for you."

Su Wanqing threw away the peony stalks that were scratching his bald head, "The Pei family in Longxi has made great military achievements for generations. By your generation, it has declined and has to take the imperial examination to become an official."

She walked closer and looked at Pei Xianyu's face, which always contained a smile, as if it was funny, "You think it's funny, but someone also found me the day before and said he could satisfy me."

"That guy is quite capable."

There was no admiration in Pei Xianyu's tone, but it sounded like he was being arrogant.

Su Wanqing didn't care about these ladybugs. She just wanted to watch them fight each other. When one of them died, she would find a way to get rid of him.

"But Miss, you may not accept his favor."

Pei Xianyu's eyes were more flirtatious than Prince Ning's. His mother was a thin horse from Yangzhou and had unparalleled beauty, so she was accepted as a concubine by General Pei.

"You sold me this favor because you thought how would I repay you in the future?"

Su Wanqing looked straight at him, one eye was firm and clear, the other was cold and cloudy.

Pei Xianyu picked off the fallen leaves that fell on Su Wanqing's head, his face as delicate as jade, full of affection.

"I just want to make friends with the lady and listen to me play the piano every day."

It sounds simple.

But Su’s books from the late Qing Dynasty are not for nothing.

You can still feel full after eating white rice, but you have been reading like crazy for more than 20 days. How could you not learn anything at all?

Su Wanqing sneered, turned around, and broke another delicate pink peony from the flower bed.

"When Sima Xiangru played "Sauvignon Blanc", Zhuo Wenjun was still a widow. Did Academic Pei have a feud with King Mo? Are you hoping that he will die so that I can get married for the second time?"

Pei Xianyu had some abilities, and the censor mingled with the crowd that night, and he was still safe and sound during the morning of the next day.

At first glance, it seemed that someone had suppressed the matter of prostitution in Taibai Courtyard for him.

"I'm just a cripple. Miss, do you think my face can't compare to King Mo's style?"

Pei Xianyu smiled a little sadly, which made Su Wanqing feel a little hairy.
