After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart
Chapter 62: The Dangerous Backyard
Not long after the prince left, Su Lingyue was about to walk towards the ladies' room when she heard a voice.
"Royal Aunt."
Su Lingyue looked towards the source of the voice, only to see King Jing Xiao Changan walking out from behind a rockery with an ambiguous smile on his face.
"Auntie Huang is here to see the prince. Does Uncle Huang know?"
Su Lingyue's face tightened. When did Xiao Changan come here? She didn't know how much of her conversation with Xiao Changshi Xiao Changshi had heard.
Maybe he only saw it and didn't hear it. As long as he doesn't admit it, there's nothing he can do.
Su Lingyue said coldly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince and I just met by chance, did Your Highness King Jing misunderstand?"
Xiao Changan took a few steps forward and was only two or three steps away from Su Lingyue.
Xiao Changan inherited the beauty of her mother, Concubine Yi. Her pair of peach blossom eyes always look silent, affectionate and gentle.
At this moment, Xiao Changan's expression was extremely oppressive and aggressive.
Su Lingyue felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"The Imperial Aunt just looked at Xiao Changshi's expression and even argued with him. Do you think the Imperial Uncle will believe it?"
Su Lingyue distanced herself from Xiao Changan, calmed herself down, and asked coldly, "Are you going to tell the prince?"
There was still a smile in Xiao Changshi's peach blossom eyes, but there was oppression in the smile.
"If you can win the favor of a beautiful woman, you won't have to worry about anything."
Su Lingyue's heart tightened. This was what Xiao Changan was planning!
Su Lingyue raised her red lips, which were bright and charming. She glanced at Xiao Changan and said, "I wonder what talents and virtues His Royal Highness Prince Jing has that could win my heart?"
Although Prince Jing inherited Concubine Yi's beauty, Concubine Yi's mother's family was only the prefect of Danzhou and had no status.
For the sake of his mother and his own safety, he could only avoid Xiao Changshi's edge everywhere.
Although my aunt was not favored, she was still the master of the harem.
Since all the civil officials in the court were under my father Su Heng, my aunt's position was unshakable and everyone in the palace was respectful to her.
The same goes for Concubine Yi and Xiao Changan. With the power of his mother's family, they can't even shake his aunt's finger.
As if a painful spot was touched, Xiao Changan put away his smile, and stared at Su Lingyue with his pair of cold peach blossom eyes.
Indeed, given his background, it was impossible for him to covet Su Lingyue.
He suppressed his anger and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will make your secret meeting with Xiao Changshi public!"
Su Lingyue still had a scornful and mocking smile on her face.
"I want to say that you can go ahead, but before you gossip, I suggest you think about your grandfather and your mother!"
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Su Lingyue, I was right about you. You are so cruel that you even poisoned your own husband. You are so cruel!"
Xiao Changan heard the conversation he had just had with Xiao Changshi!
Su Lingyue chuckled: "The eldest daughter of the Su family can only be the queen. If you can ascend to the supreme position, it is not impossible to gain my favor."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Changan said, "Aunt, just wait!" There was desire and ambition in his words.
"Then I'll wait."
Wait till you guys start fighting.
After everyone left, Su Nanxing walked out from behind the rockery with murderous intent in his eyes.
Su Nanxing originally wanted to teach Su Lingyue a lesson, but since she dared to covet his position as queen, he could only let her die.
Su Lingyue came to the women's area in the backyard. Compared with the liveliness in the front yard, it was very quiet inside. There were only a dozen middle-aged ladies sitting together chatting.
One is the eldest sister-in-law’s mother, the wife of the Minister of War, Madam Li. The second sister-in-law’s mother is the wife of a scholar in the Hanlin Academy, Madam Song.
The wife of the Duke of Yingguo and his old lady, the wife of Vice Minister of Personnel Liu Zhun, and the wife of Attendant Reader in the Hanlin Academy Qi Feng were all there, but the others were not so familiar to me.
This situation was probably caused by the absurd plan of the old lady and Su Wenyuan when Sanchao returned home two months ago.
No noble lady from an aristocratic family dares to come to the Duke Dingguo’s Mansion anymore.
When everyone saw Su Lingyue coming in, they all knelt down to greet her, but Su Lingyue exempted everyone from the formalities.
Then he walked towards the Duchess of England and the old lady, who had not greeted him just now.
The old Duke of England was once named General Weiyuan and had made great military achievements when he was young. Although he has retired from the military, he is still respected by everyone in the court.
Su Lingyue walked up to the two of them and bowed slightly, "Madam, the Duke of England, how is the old lady?"
The two of them nodded in return, "How is the princess? How is the prince's health recently?"
Su Lingyue chuckled and said, "Your Highness is in good health, thank you for your concern."
Since the old Duke of England retired from the army, his descendants have all been employed in civil service and military positions of varying degrees. They attend all banquets in the capital and try not to offend anyone.
Just as the old lady of the Duke of England picked up the cup to drink water, Su Lingyue noticed that her hands were shaking a little.
Although hand tremors are a common disease among the elderly, they are also a sign of a stroke.
She probably thought it was a common hand tremor among the elderly and didn't take it seriously.
The Duke of Yingguo's Mansion and Su Lingyue have never had any enmity, and Su Lingyue felt that there was nothing wrong with giving a reminder.
"Madam, I just noticed that one of your hands was shaking. This could be a sign of a stroke. I must see a doctor when I get home. It may be preventable."
The Duchess of England was a little shocked when she heard this, "Is what the princess said true?"
Su Lingyue nodded: "Although hand tremors are common in the elderly, most of them will develop into strokes in the future. Madam, you should take care of your health and see a doctor as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, the old lady thanked Su Lingyue profusely.
The Duchess of England also hurriedly said that she would find a doctor to see the old lady when she returned.
A few people were chatting happily when they saw Su Nanxing walking into the hall in a bright yellow phoenix robe.
Except for Su Lingyue, the Duke of England's wife, and the old lady, everyone else knelt down and saluted Su Nanxing.
After asking everyone to calm down, Su Nanxing also walked over to Su Lingyue and saluted the three of them.
After the Duchess of England and the old lady returned the gifts, Su Nanxing looked at everyone and chuckled.
"Today I see the lotus flowers in the palace are blooming. It's still early for the banquet, so why don't you all go and enjoy the lotus flowers together? It's also a good idea."
The lotus pond in Duke Dingguo's Mansion is a unique place in the capital. Many literati and poets would visit from time to time to admire the lotus, and those who were lucky would be promoted by Su Heng.
Su Lingyue didn't want to join in the fun and just sat aside drinking tea.
Su Nanxing said, "Sister, we are all half masters of the mansion now. Why don't you help take care of the Lady of the Duke of Ying and the old lady? If something happens, how can we be worthy of them?"
He put such a big hat on himself right from the start! Su Nanxing was forcing himself to go!
Based on his understanding of her, Su Nanxing was feeling resentful again.
"Okay, I'll go too." He went over to see what Su Nanxing was going to do.
They all came to the lotus pond and saw a pond of emerald green lotus leaves, some as big as basins and some as small as cups, stacked layer upon layer.
The pink and white lotus in the middle stands tall and graceful, while some are too shy and hang their heads with their buds tightly closed, not yet revealing their beautiful faces.
A few white cranes, which came from nowhere, were dancing and looking for food among the flowers and leaves.
Seeing this scene, everyone praised it.
"The lotus pond in Duke Dingguo's Mansion is indeed one of the ten most scenic spots in the capital, and its reputation is well-deserved."
"Yes, I have never seen such a beautiful lotus pond."
She was the wife of Liu Zhun, the Vice Minister of Rites, and Qi Feng, the Attendant Reader in the Hanlin Academy.
Su Nanxing said, "Walking on the arch bridge in the middle, you can also smell the fragrance of lotus flowers and lotus leaves up close. Please come this way."
Su Nanxing led everyone towards the arch bridge. The layers of lotus leaves and graceful lotus flowers were on both sides of the arch bridge and could be touched by reaching out.
Su Lingyue hadn't had the leisure to appreciate flowers for a long time. When she saw the pink buds, she thought they were very cute and walked forward to stroke them gently.
At this moment, her body was pushed forward by a sudden force, and Su Lingyue realized that she had been ambushed.
At the moment of falling, she wanted to reach out and grab the person who pushed her, but she heard a "swish" and Su Lingyue still fell headfirst into the lotus pond.
The cold pond water instantly soaked her whole body, then penetrated into her lungs through her mouth and nose, and a burning and stinging sensation spread throughout her body.
Su Lingyue struggled using her hands and feet, but she couldn't swim, and no matter how hard she struggled, her body wouldn't float up.
The screams and cries for help from the people on the bridge became quieter and quieter, and Su Lingyue's consciousness gradually became blurred.
The turbid pond water gradually submerged Su Lingyue, and she sank completely.
