However, in just two days, Su Peijiu completely changed her mind. This senior brother often appeared and disappeared like a dragon, showing up when he was not wanted and vanishing when he was needed. For example, when she was bathing... he came over with a basket of flower petals, smiling seductively, which nearly made Su Peijiu call Silver Dove to throw him out.
Su Chi had also come to see Su Peijiu these past few days. Looking at the gradually recovering Su Peijiu, the satisfaction in his eyes was almost overflowing, which made her even more suspicious that Su Chi had ulterior motives regarding her.
On the surface, the Yuan Cang Kingdom seemed peaceful, but as the emperor grew older, despite having established a crown prince, he still clung to the throne. The ministers were each bought off and had their own concerns. Only Chancellor Su Chi remained observant, leaving the princes anxious and restless.
Recently, the crown prince frequently invited Su Chi out, often returning late at night. Su Chi seemed completely unafraid of gossip and accepted every invitation.
With the Flower Festival approaching, the Prime Minister's Residence would have her, as the legitimate daughter, along with that whimsical Sister Four, Su Mengyun, attending. It seemed there was more to it than just that simple gathering. It appeared that Su Chi intended to use her as a political bargaining chip and was beginning to choose his own path.
That was why such an extraordinary Silver Dove was assigned to her side—was he afraid she might cause trouble? It seemed that Su Chi valued his career path more than his feelings for Jun Liuji.
With a gentle grip, rose-colored juice dripped from the Rose through her fingers. Su Peijiu gazed at the lush flowers blooming in the distance with a calm expression.
This day had finally arrived... whether she could get closer to the center of power depended on the upcoming Flower Festival. She must... absolutely must give Qi Mo a grand gift!
"Why is Junior Sister so ruthless with flowers?" The enchanting tone drew one in as Ji Yu leaned against a willow tree, watching Su Peijiu sitting on a chair just four or five steps away.
Su Peijiu released the Rose in her hand, letting it fall to the ground and gather dust. She smiled slightly; under the setting sun, she exuded an irresistible charm. Her brows and eyes seemed capable of captivating souls, causing Ji Yu's previously stagnant heart to suddenly skip a beat.
"What you say is incorrect, Senior Brother; if flowers are only for viewing from afar, they lose their charm, don't they?"
Ji Yu gazed deeply at this girl burdened with deep-seated grudges. After a moment, he smirked like a demon: "What you say is indeed true; if they are only admired from a distance, they lose their so-called charm... These flowers should be held in hand for proper appreciation..."
"On the day after tomorrow, I hope Senior Brother can lend me a hand..." The girl looked up at the man under the tree.
The man reached out and broke off a willow branch, tossing it beside the girl’s feet next to the Rose: "...this is only natural."
As Su Xingyan was preparing to cause trouble for Su Peijiu just as she was about to leave, she hired people with large amounts of silver to harm Su Peijiu, but unexpectedly, the returnee had news.
"I originally saw Second Sister and was planning to take advantage of the chaos to act, but suddenly she disappeared. It seems someone powerful is assisting her," said the kneeling Masked Man.
Su Xingyan was so angry that she smashed a mirror on the ground and kicked the Masked Man: "I paid you all that silver, and you come back with this news?!"
"Don't worry, Sister. Since we have taken your money, we will definitely get the job done." The Masked Man, who had just received a kick, flashed a hint of malice in his eyes before it quickly vanished.
Su Xingyan snorted coldly and paced a few steps in place. "If we fail again this time, you will be in for it!"
"Rest assured, Elder Sister."
"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Su Xingyan shouted angrily again, and the Masked Man immediately used his lightness skill to leave.
Cuiyu hurried over to pat Su Xingyan on the back: "Sister, please don't let yourself get too upset; we can't let those treacherous people succeed. This time, we will make sure Second Sister can't call for help or escape. In the end, won't it be up to you how to deal with her?"
Only then did Su Xingyan calm down, slowly curling her lips into a smile as her sharp nails grazed Cuiyu's face: "You still understand my heart."
"That is my duty as a servant," Cuiyu replied humbly, lowering her gaze.
Su Xingyan looked at the shattered pieces of the mirror on the ground, a glint of hatred flashing in her beautiful eyes. "Now let's see how you, Su Peijiu, can escape!" No matter who is high or low, let's see who can save you now!
