Wei Yan was so stunned. For a while, she was at a loss as to how to respond to the situation. Her face alternated between blue and white. She felt that whatever she was going to say was wrong. However, it only looked like she felt guilty if she didn't say anything...Seeing Wei Yan's reaction, Wei Yuewu sneered in her heart!She had assumed that Wei Yan and others would not allow things to go out of control. They had to comply with her request to break off the engagement. Actually, if she could break off her engagement without the consent from the elders, she would not have wasted her time here arguing with these people.After she entered the mansion, she induced Wei Yan and Lady Li to mention the attempted murder and the carriage accident instead of bringing up the incidents by herself. This was because she wanted the Madam Dowager to know that if her request was rejected, she would ruin Wei Yan's reputation.Whatever the end of t

"I... " Wei Yan was instantly speechless at Wei Yuewu’s question. She had rushed out only because she was so exasperated that she lost control of herself."Yuewu, Wei Yan was just expressing her concern about you. She’s worrying about your marriage. After all, your engagement was a favor done at the request by your mother. It's a pity to cancel it in such a casual way."Lady Li hurriedly offered an explanation for Wei Yan. She forced a smile on her stiff face and appeared to be sincerely considering what's good for Wei Yuewu.However, according to previous arguments, her such an explanation only made a great sarcasm in the eyes of the audience."I... I... I just wanted you to think about it."As much as Wei Yan longed to scratch Wei Yuewu’s beautiful face, she recognized that she must follow Lady Li's logic at this moment.Wei Yan almost crumpled the handkerchief in her hand into a tattered ball, but under

Wei Yuewu looked around at the servants in the yard, a trace of derision glimmering in her eyes. So she was right: all these servants were loyal to Lady Li and Wei Yan. Their disapproval and contempt were writ large on their faces, determined to drive her out of Lotus Courtyard. Unfortunately, she had no intention to leave once she moved in.Wei Yuewu slightly raised her chin toward Jin Ling as a gesture for her to take action. By now, Jin Ling understand her mistress without words being said. This was a result of accompanying her mistress during their journey to the capital. She comprehended Wei Yuewu’s meaning instantly and walked to the old maidservant angrily."Sixth Young Lady..." Seeing others echoing her words, the old maidservant in charge became more presumptuous. She turned to Wei Yuewu and was about to say something else when Jin Ling, who had by now stopped before her, slapped her hard in the face and then kicked her skillfully with the right fo

"Miss, I don't think Shuiyun had any good intentions in requesting to see you. You'd better not go." Jin Ling reminded Wei Yuewu apprehensively while she helped combing Wei Yuewu's hair.They had just arrived at the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang, a totally strange place to them. Jin Ling felt that it was better not to act rashly for the time being!Wei Yuewu glanced at Jin Ling in the mirror with approval. This maid was indeed smart, and she was able to recognize the plot that was going on behind the scene."This note was not written by Shuiyun." Wei Yuewu looked sideways at the note, a trace of mockery flashing in her eyes.Even though the characters were deliberately written in a slightly skewed manner, it was still discernable that the note was not written by an ordinary person. This could be judged by the strength that was applied when writing with the brush not only an entire character but also each stroke that formed the charac

As much as Lady Li thought so, some trace of dread lingered in in her heart. She forced out a smile and gave two dry laughs. Pretending to be ignorant of the situation, she argued, "Mother, what exactly happened? How did that maidservant murder Shuiyun? I really don't know anything about it.""She is your own personal servant. How could you be so ignorant of her viciousness? How are you running this house?" The Madam Dowager was infuriated at the successive mistakes Lady Li had made today. She sent Lady Tu to the guest room only a moment ago. Now Lady Tu was back again due to another incident of the same nature as the previous issue. How could she contain her wrath?It was obvious that Nanny Qian was only a scapegoat. There were no one in this mansion, except for Lady Li and Wei Yan, who would take a move against Wei Yuewu at this moment. It seemed that they could not wait to make Wei Yuewu disappear immediately.The Madam Dowager was really in
