The wicked girl

Chapter 299
Under the scorching sun, the wind is extremely cold.

The combination of cold and heat made people shiver in the wind uncontrollably.Ye Kui suddenly stopped, turned around and glanced at the second lady who had fallen behind.

There is a difference between concubine and concubine, no matter how capable Second Master Pei is, he is just a son of concubine.Marquis Yong'an had quite a few sons, even if several of them died young, the eldest who loved him the most died young, but there are still not a few men in this mansion.

Their wives are not much worse than the second wife.

But that's just what it looks like on the surface.After experiencing the behavior of the second wife just now, Ye Kui had no choice but to scold herself for being superficial.She is indeed too superficial. When it comes to seeing things and people, her eyes are not long enough.She didn't see the real second lady at all, until just now, the person she saw was actually just the second lady that she imagined in her mind.

Such a person, how could the third lady and the seventh lady be the opponents of the second lady?
The third wife's husband is a concubine, but the second wife's is just a concubine.Which is higher and which is lower, you can tell at a glance.But the second lady has been able to control Pei's family for so many years, which shows how powerful she is.

She is too good at pretending.

In this inner house, those who can pretend are probably the ones who can go to the end.

Not for anything else, really just because there is a pretense.Most of those people who can express all the thoughts in their hearts on their faces are not terrible people.Their tempers may be strong enough and their means vicious enough, but in the end they will still lose.

Because of what?
Because the mind is far less careful and vicious than others.

Therefore, being able to pretend is definitely a remarkable skill!
Ye Kui withdrew her gaze and smiled wryly in her heart, but she herself was also the one who couldn't pretend.Although she is already a person who is very good at hiding her thoughts compared to someone like the third wife who is prone to revealing her temper, but in front of someone like the second wife, she is not enough to look good at all.

Maybe the second lady didn't pay attention to her at all?
Thinking like this, Ye Kui didn't know whether she should feel lucky or unlucky.Since she got pregnant, she actually thought more carefully than before.She desperately hopes that she can plan a good future for the unborn child in her womb.

She didn't want to wait until this child landed and grew up, but he still had to face these things day after day.

In her bones, she is still the person from the 21st century.

Just like when Xiao Yunniang wanted to take their siblings away from the Ye family, although most of her thoughts were just because Ye Chongwen wanted to marry the He family.But from her diary, Ye Kui can still see Xiao Yunniang's deeper thoughts.

As a mother, she didn't want Ye Kui and Ye Shu to go back to the life of intrigue.

So during those many years in the country, Ye Kui never took the initiative to take Ye Shu back.

However, things backfired and they finally came back.Not only came back, but also completely stirred up the muddy water, making it even more muddy.Now, she will not do the same thing as Xiao Yunniang.She is not Xiao Yunniang, and she will never be her.So when something happened to her, what she thought about was how to solve it from the root cause.

All disasters have an origin, as long as the water flow is cut off and the source is buried, then everything will naturally be solved.

The corner of her mouth slightly curved, Ye Kui told Qin Sang, "Go back to the Shocking Magpie Courtyard."

Yancao, who was also at the side, didn't say anything, but Qin Sang glanced at Ye Kui in surprise, and said softly, "Old Hou Ye..."

Ye Kui looked ahead with a relaxed expression, and replied softly, "I'm afraid he won't be able to come back today."

"what?"

When Qin Sang heard this, she couldn't help but let out a low exclamation, causing Yancao to look at her suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong?"

There was no one around, so Ye Kui said directly, "I already have some ideas about Shen Liu."

When she was waiting outside just now, she didn't really just wait like that.Luo Shi was screaming in her head, but her thoughts had already drifted to Cangcheng, and then drifted leisurely from Cangcheng back to Fengcheng, all the way to the palace.

It never occurred to her that there might be another possibility.

But at that moment, she suddenly thought of it.

How courageous was Rong Fan to kill Shen Liu before reporting the news to Emperor Chengzhen?And the reason is still to sink the enemy and treason, which will not pass at all.Afterwards, even though Emperor Chengzhen praised Rong Fan on the surface, he must have killed Rong Fan countless times in his heart.

Such behavior, in fact, is clearly slapping Emperor Chengzhen in the face.

However, Rong Fanyuan was in Cangcheng, even if Emperor Chengzhen wanted to get angry with him, it was impossible for him to get angry at this moment.But Rong Fan was not there, but the Fifth Prince was in Fengcheng.

Who doesn't know that Rong Fan is the fifth prince's brother-in-law, and the two wear the same pair of pants.What happened, who would believe that the Fifth Prince didn't know anything about it?This will inevitably affect the reputation of the fifth prince in the court.

Fame has always been a weird thing.

Shen Liu's popularity is not good, in fact, it is only relative.

He used to be Yongan Hou's subordinate and also a member of the Pei family army. Even if he didn't have a good relationship with others, he was naturally close to the Pei family army.Although Marquis Yong'an automatically went into hibernation after the Xiao family was overthrown, even those old subordinates who brought him in the past have embarked on a difficult road.But which one of those people is easy to mess with now?
Water can carry a boat and it can overturn it.

It's not too ridiculous to use a mantis' arms as a car.

One praying mantis is not enough, so what about a group?What about a large group?
The fifth prince might miss his chance just because of this one incident.

Ye Kui doesn't know the real situation in the court today, but she knows that the battle for the throne changes rapidly.She suddenly realized that the Fifth Prince might not be the final winner at all.The person who actually sits on the throne is not the Fifth Prince.But if that person is not the Fifth Prince, who could it be?

Ye Mingyan should not have lied. She said that Ye Kui and Rong Fan in the previous life were walking together when Rong Fan was rising from the power of the dragon.

So Rong Fan was not on the wrong team.

This also proved that Rong Fan seemed to be standing beside the fifth prince, but in fact the person he was really supporting was not the fifth prince at all!

And this has been planned from the very beginning, from the very beginning.

Ye Kui gasped, her thoughts turned in circles, and she suddenly remembered something again.If things are really as she thinks now, then did she think wrong about what happened at that time?
Who was that person she met in the farmyard back then, that person accompanied by Rong Fan?

When she and Princess Liu Zhu went to the suburbs to appreciate chrysanthemums, she and Princess Liu Zhu met Rong Fan and the fifth prince by chance.

It was from that time that she began to suspect that the person she saw that day was actually the Fifth Prince.

What's more, although she only saw a figure wrapped in winter clothes, but the height was very similar to that of the fifth prince, which made her feel more certain.Coupled with the fact that Rong Fan later married the younger sister of the fifth concubine, the matter seemed to become completely clear.

If he hadn't decided to always stand by the fifth prince's side, how could he have married the fifth prince's concubine's younger sister and tied himself and the fifth prince together?
From this point of view, it seems that there is really no flaw at all.

But suddenly things started to go wrong.

The person she saw with Rong Fan that day was indeed the Fifth Prince, right?
Ye Kui couldn't be sure anymore.

If that person is not the Fifth Prince... then everything has to be recalculated!

This is a conspiracy!
An earth-shattering conspiracy!

Perhaps the fifth prince is just a pawn in the corner of this suddenly changing chess game!

As Ye Kui thought about it, her heart was lifted high by herself.She wanted to laugh, to laugh at the fact that she might finally have glimpsed the truth, but her smile couldn't expand.Things became more and more complicated, so complicated that she had to stop first, stand where she was and think about it before moving on.

The shiny cobblestones paved on the path are slightly raised, touching the thin soles of the shoes, which hurt a little.

Ye Kui took a deep breath, raised her feet and landed heavily, grinding those pebbles, as if she wanted to crush all the mixed thoughts in her head.

"Ma'am, your feet hurt carefully." Compared with them, Yancao seemed a little dull in some aspects. She didn't have any special thoughts in her mind at the moment, but she could only see that although the corners of Ye Kui's mouth were curved, her mood was not. Doesn't seem good.She thought that Ye Kui was thinking of herself because of Luo Shi's miscarriage, and she was so worried, so she comforted her: "Madam, don't worry, you are not such a careless person as Madam Eight..."

She originally wanted to say that she was not in the right mood, but then she thought that it would be a little unkind to speak like this just after she had a child, so she hurriedly changed it to being careless.

But Ye Kui wasn't worried about this at all, and Yan Cao's comfort was of no use.

On the contrary, Qin Sang, when he heard Ye Kui mention Shen Liu's name, he thought of something, and his face darkened.

"Yancao, why don't you go back and serve me a bowl of noodles? Just add salt, and add a few drops of mature vinegar." Ye Kui smiled and turned to Yancao.

She was disgusted, and her taste became very strange, so when she saw that she wanted to eat noodles, Yancao immediately went first.

As soon as her back disappeared, Qin Sang couldn't help saying: "Madam..."

"It's okay, she can't stand it, the more she knows, the more uncomfortable she will be, it's better to let go." Ye Kui interrupted Qin Sang's words, and said calmly.

Qin Sang sighed, and said, "I heard that the emperor's body has recovered."

Ye Kui narrowed her eyes, "I know. If I'm not wrong, his body should be healed..."
