The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Yun Shuo asked softly, as if he was looking at a child who had never grown up. Those childish words were simply hilarious, and he laughed as well.

He looked a little bit amused, a look he had never seen before.

"How can you say such cruel words to your parents and your brother? Is it just because we want you to be a little more obedient?"

"Or do you think that beating a maid to death is unacceptable to you?"

He laughed, and Yun Jiao began to tremble for some reason, as if she had seen Yun Shuo's true emotions beneath his gentle mask.

"You still haven't grown up, Sisi. How can you think that such rash words of yours can be responded to? These maids and slaves are dead, so they should even be thankful that they didn't suffer more torture."

The masters of the mansions had many different ways of punishing disobedient maids. Even selling them to brothels was only a relatively mild punishment.

For maids like Qiulan who failed to take good care of the young lady, beating them to death was already a bargain.

Yun Shuo clearly meant this. He was accusing his sister of leaving selfishly without considering the people around her who would be punished.

Even if Yun Nian didn't want to leave.

Yun Nian didn't say anything, but Liu Shulan, who had been silent the whole time, spoke with a sigh.

"She's just a maid, and you're going to disobey us for her? Sisi, why are you so stupid? Stop playing those little tricks of yours and come back to be your noble lady, okay?"

Ning Sinian felt that the development of things now seemed different from what he had imagined. He originally thought that after they gathered in this small courtyard, he would involve the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and then let Yun Jiao plant the seed Gu in Sisi.

But now it seems that the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion were well prepared.

He realized something and turned his eyes to Yun Jiao, but she also looked thoughtful.

"what have you done?!"

The Prince of Jinyang roared, and the Princess showed a panicked look, and then quickly disappeared.

"What should I do? I just want to protect myself. If I really help you, I'm afraid I will be dead soon."

Yun Jiao sneered, revealing Ning Sinian's original thoughts.

"That's enough. Do what you should do, Yunjiao, and don't cause any trouble."

Yun Fang said impatiently, she curled her lips and quieted down, only Ning Sinian seemed to understand something,

"You are a gang, you actually teamed up to deceive me!"

He flicked his sleeves and wanted to leave, but was surrounded by people. Yun Shuo imitated him and spread out a small fan.

"Prince, stay still. No one will make things difficult for you. Otherwise, I think King Jinyang would be happy for us to help him solve a problem."

The hidden threat in the sentence forced Ning Sinian to suppress his unhappy thoughts, but his eyes still fell on Yun Nian unwillingly.

If he had known earlier, he should have done this to Yun Jiao and forced her to hand over the "Love" Gu!

"It's not because of Chunyu... But Chunyu is already dead, why can't I protect her? I can't do anything... It seems like I have never grown up, and I am still as willful as a child."

The voice was so soft, so soft, as if it would float away from the air if one wasn't paying attention. Yun Nian had a bitter smile on his face.

"In that case, let me be willful one last time."

"I know I can never be what you imagine me to be, so please let me go. Daddy, Mommy, Brother, since you once loved me so much, can't you just let me go?"

Yun Nian straightened her back and asked in a sad voice. She threw the curtain aside and pulled open her hair. Her long hair cascaded down like a dark cloud.

Sadness and despair were like maggots attached to her bones, mixed with her face, and there was actually a sense of compassion, which made it impossible to look at her with ordinary eyes.

She took out a dagger from somewhere, with a cold gleam, pointed the blade at herself, and gathered her hair together.

"My body and hair were given to me by my parents. Now, I shave my hair to show my determination. I only wish to sever my relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion and never have any contact with them again. I hope you will grant my wish."

Strands of hair fell with the wind, landed on the ground and were stained by dust, just like her attachment to the Yun family, which had nothing to do with her from then on.

Yun Fang did not speak for a long time, his expression becoming increasingly grim, and then he had Yun Nian picked up from the ground expressionlessly.

"You are not my daughter, but an evil ghost who came from nowhere and took over my home. I didn't believe it at first. My Sisi would never disobey me like this."

The girl, with only her shoulder-length hair left, raised her head in panic, looking at the prime minister who made such shocking remarks.

"Yun Jiao, come forward and start preparing for the ceremony."

Yun Nian watched Yun Jiao approach step by step. His dilated pupils were filled with the sound of her mumbling. The tip of the knife cut her wrist, and something warm liquid flowed out of her body.

……

Wei Qingjue was still on his way. He was caught off guard and fell on the horse's back. The sudden palpitations made him feel a little uneasy.

His already frowned brows now had even deeper wrinkles, as if something he didn't want to foresee was about to happen.

Damn it, he couldn't think about that cold-hearted woman anymore. He didn't know someone's acting skills were so superb that they could even fool him.

The Regent King was unwilling to admit that Yun Nian had never liked him and that it was all just his own wishful thinking.

The galloping horse ran on the official road, and no one dared to stop it.

But the more he told himself not to think about it, the more his thoughts became out of control.

Fuqiu was right, women are all liars, and the prettier they are, the more likely they are to lie. He was too credulous and forgot that it was impossible for him to receive true love.

The young regent finally realized that love expressed out loud could be fake, and unexpressed love even more so.

His focus should not be on love affairs, but on his new and old hatreds. Feiyulou played a trick on him, so he should be punished accordingly.

As for Ke Shu, this woman who is always pretending to be pitiful, not only has she teamed up with Prince Jinyang and the Prime Minister, but maybe even Ke Luo is involved.

But he still couldn't deceive himself. Even at this moment, when he had clearly determined that Yun Nian was a liar, he still couldn't convince himself to forget her.

"Damn it!"

Wei Qingjue whipped the horse whip hard, and the horse's hooves, stimulated by the pain, ran faster and faster.

"After I finish dealing with the affairs in the palace, Yun Nian, I will definitely lock you up and interrogate you thoroughly!"
