Chapter 166

This time when Pei Yuqing leaves the capital, it is absolutely certain that he will encounter danger. It all depends on how he deals with it.

He is not an ordinary person, but no matter how talented he is, he is not invulnerable.

Ji Chengfeng was so smart in his previous life, but he was still plotted against and died of plague.

Xie Wanning had suspected whether Lu Ziyan was behind this incident, but she had not seen that man since the palace banquet. Except for the huge black eagle that flew to the window from time to time with a bamboo tube hanging around its neck, which probably contained a sealed letter, he never appeared in front of her on his own initiative again.

Yun Jin was very understanding of human nature and knew to show up when there was no one else around. Even so, Xie Wanning never took off the bamboo tube.

She had complicated feelings towards Lu Ziyan. She had loved him, hated him, and was annoyed and tired of him. Now when she thought of him, all that remained was the harsh words "chop him into meat sauce and feed him to the dogs" echoing in her ears from time to time.

She had a slight feeling that the two men were secretly competing with each other, but since they didn't make a fuss in front of her, she just pretended not to know and didn't ask specifically.

Lu Ziyan was already unstoppable in the court, and Pei Yuqing left Beijing at this time. Xie Wanning didn't dare to think too much about whether it was because of her that Lu Ziyan made some move.

She was just a lady in the harem, there wasn't much she could do. She just wanted to live her life in peace and stability, but such a wish seemed to be just a luxury.

Even though they hadn't seen each other for several months, Xie Wanning knew very well that Lu Ziyan would never let her go.

Before, she was afraid to face future conflicts, but after Pei Yuqing left, she would always have wild thoughts in her spare time, and many of them became uncontrollable.

She thought, as long as Lu Ziyan didn't die, there seemed to be only two choices before her.

Either he firmly chooses Pei Yuqing and ignores the Pei and Xie families, and they will share life and death together.

Either she divorced Pei Yuqing and fulfilled Lu Ziyan's obsession. He could do whatever he wanted as long as he was willing to let everyone go. But she was unwilling to make either of these two choices!

She couldn't ignore the safety of her family, and she couldn't go back to the same path as in her previous life.

But since Lu Ziyan forced her to do so, he would not let her go.

All the calm now is temporary, who knows what he is planning!
The feeling of impending storm had kept Xie Wan Ning awake at night these days.

She couldn't find a way out.

After Pei Yuqing left Beijing, Yun Jin came more and more frequently, from coming every few days to almost every day.

After all, Yun Jin was the pet of her childhood sweetheart and ex-fiancé. Xie Wanning had almost watched Yun Jin grow up and had fed it many times, so it was certainly not unfamiliar to Xie Wanning.

I don't know what orders its master gave it these times. It landed on the windowsill several times. Seeing that she ignored it, it no longer left in a wronged manner as before, but flapped its wings to attract her attention.

Once, Er Qing caught him red-handed.

As Xie Wanning's personal maid who grew up with her, Er Qing of course knew Lu Ziyan's favorite.

She had known for a long time that Lu Ziyan had not given up on her daughter, so she was not surprised to see Yun Jin coming to Er Qing. She just said anxiously, "This is not a big deal. What are your plans, daughter?"

Although she was already married, Er Qing still didn't call him by that name in private.

There is nothing that the master and servant cannot talk about. Hearing this, Xie Wan Ning smiled bitterly and said, "In order to end my relationship with him, I hastily married him, but he still refuses to give up. What else can I do?"
