Ever since she was little, she had bullied Tao Yaoyao like a dog, but since when did this bitch dare to resist?
By the way, it was after falling into the water that day.
However, she thought that if she resisted, she would be unable to deal with her?
Tao Yanyan covered half of her face, rushed out of the room, and shouted loudly to the guards who came over, "Hit me. If you beat me to death, I will help you carry it."
The guards rushed in to bully Tao Yaoyao as they did before. Who knew that Tao Yaoyao would just stand in front of the bed without saying anything, but her sharp eyes like the finest swords frightened them. They all stopped.
"Miss, we...we..."
Before the man finished speaking, the guard behind him shouted and dispersed as if he had seen a ghost. Soon, the guard was the only one left in the room.
When he saw this, he turned around and ran away without thinking about what to say next.
"You guys come back to me." Tao Yanyan was ready to see Tao Yaoyao crying for his father and mother. He didn't expect that so many people would be afraid of a woman. It was really embarrassing.
"You're useless, the Tao family raised you for nothing."
"The Tao family has raised you to be lawless."
At some point, Tao Yaoyao came up behind her and said in a cold voice, "Disrespecting the eldest son is a serious crime. It seems that the second sister does not understand the law. In this case, Qiu Gui, go get the law books, and then Ask the second young lady to kneel at the door of the master's study and carry it carefully. When you have carried it, you will get up again."
Tao Yanyan looked at her in disbelief, "How dare you punish me, who do you think you are..."
Snapped!
"Tao Yaoyao, you hit me again." Tao Yanyan was furious. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit her back. Qiu Gui rushed forward and pushed her aside, "Second miss, my miss is injured all over her body now. The doctor said It needs to be taken good care of, otherwise your life may be in danger.
If something happens to my young lady because of your collision, the master may favor the second young lady, but what do the second young ladies think the fifth young master will do? "
The fifth son of the Chu family is about to return to Beijing.
Who in the entire Kyoto city doesn't know how much the Chu family loves Tao Yaoyao. Not to mention that she hasn't done anything to her today. Even if she told the barbarian what happened just now, he might beat her up.
Thinking of his past experiences, Tao Yanyan reluctantly put down his hands, "Things that rely on human power..."
Tao Yanyan couldn't be beaten or scolded, so he thought of a way to vent his anger by criticizing Huai. Who knew that Tao Yaoyao was not used to her, "You are right, I really like this, but... I have a good one." Grandpa, do you have it?"
After Tao Yaoyao finished speaking, she ignored her jealous face and told Qiu Gui, "Watch her. When the second young lady has memorized the law books for you, she can get up."
Qiu Gui agreed in a loud voice, and then dragged Tao Yanyan to Tao Shian's yard in a pretentious manner.
After Aunt Zhao learned about this matter, she immediately went to find Tao Shi'an. Tao Shi'an wanted to help Tao Yanyan, but Qiu Gui said, "It's okay for the master to favor the second young lady. When the fifth young master comes back, both the servant and the young lady will Let me tell the Fifth Young Master what happened in the past few days."
Tao Yaoyao disappeared a few days ago, but no one from the Tao family looked for him. Later, Tao Yanyan found someone to ruin Tao Yaoyao's reputation. The Tao family did not hide these things, and the fifth young master was an extremely powerful person. , if he wanted to investigate, people like the Tao family would have to shed their skin even if they didn't die.
Tao Shi'an has always known how to protect himself wisely, and if this matter gets serious, it may affect the Tao family's reputation, his career...
"Okay, the eldest lady is the owner of this mansion, why should she discipline her sister?"
After Tao Shian finished speaking, he not only ignored Aunt Zhao, but also closed the door.
When Aunt Zhao saw this, she was so angry that her teeth chattered.
"mother……"
"Second Miss, Aunt Zhao is just a concubine of the Tao family. As the master, how can you call a servant your mother?" Qiu Gui imitated Tao Yaoyao and took out a small notebook. Tao Yanyan's heart rose after seeing it. A bad premonition, "What are you doing?"
"Of course I will write down the inappropriate words and deeds of the second young lady. If the second young lady does not change it in the future... the eldest lady said that the second young lady is the most face-saving. When the time comes, she will post these things in the streets and alleys of Kyoto City. When the second young lady loses face, she will naturally remember it."
Tao Yaoyao, is she crazy?
She just told a few truths, but she was going to kill her?
She was wrong. The only person Tao Yaoyao came back to plot against was the Third Prince. She was obviously the one who insisted on running in front of her to find his presence. She was the one to blame for this end.
"Second Miss, hurry up and carry it, otherwise you may not be able to get up before dark."
Tao Yaoyao's first guess was correct. The mine in Xinghua Village was really related to the Third Prince. Her first step of the plan was successful.
But at the same time, she also put herself in an extremely dangerous position.
The third prince is not a broad-minded person, and this matter is of great importance. Even he may not think of someone threatening him like this, so he is afraid that the third prince has murderous intentions towards her.
Of course, these were all things she had thought of before, so she was not worried about the current situation. However, for the sake of her own life, she could not place all her hopes on Xie Lan.
"You guys, go buy some medicine for me and come back."
Tao Yaoyao wrote several prescriptions and asked several servants to go out to buy medicines. After they left, Tao Yaoyao did not relax and started drawing machine diagrams.
She had dabbled in the art of mechanism in her previous life. Although she was not proficient in it, she could still save her life.
I was so focused on painting that I didn't even notice anyone coming in.
"With your vigilance, if the people coming in now were the Third Prince's men, you would be dead by now."
A familiar voice came, and Tao Yaoyao subconsciously looked up. After seeing his familiar and handsome face, she didn't have time to appreciate it, "Isn't the prince supposed to be searching for evidence of the third prince's crime at this time?"
He was such a cunning person, and she could guess things that he had already guessed, but he never said it.
Now that he is here, he should already know what happened just now.
"The prince has arranged a bodyguard for me?" Although Tao Yaoyao had already guessed it, for the sake of her own safety, she still wanted to confirm it. After all, she could see that Xie Lan was a person who disdained lying.
"yes."
"Then the prince should also know that the matter in the mine is really related to the third prince."
"yes."
Yes, yes, will he only say yes?
After Tao Yaoyao muttered a few words, he continued, "Your Majesty loves the third prince. I'm afraid that even if the prince finds the evidence in the end, your majesty will not really do anything to the third prince."
Everyone in the palace said that His Majesty loved Beauty Wang the most, but after facing the third prince's plea, His Majesty still let the concubine who poisoned Beauty Wang go. This shows that the third prince is more important than Beauty Wang.
Xie Lan sat opposite him. Under the clear breeze and bright moonlight, he took the teacup, took a sip, and said softly, "Sometimes, what you see with your eyes may not be true."
What's the meaning?
"I am here now to tell you that the Third Prince killed everyone who worked in the mine yesterday."
What?
He killed more than 20 people on demand? Does he still have any royal methods?
"Wang Fa?" Xie Lan sneered, "What do you think?"
Tao Yaoyao suppressed her fear, clutched the tea cup in her hand, and then tried her best to remind herself that she could protect herself, and that the third prince would not kill her if he wanted to win over the Chu family...
"Why, are you scared?" After Xie Lan saw that her mood was wrong, he said in a rare and gentle voice, "Don't worry, you are still of some use value compared to those people."
This sentence did not comfort her.
"Thank you." Tao Yaoyao said carelessly, and then asked after hesitation, "Xinghua and the others..."
"Do you still care about others now?" Xie Lan reminded her, "The third prince has murderous intentions this time. Even if I protect you, whether you can survive depends on luck."
Xie Lan seemed to have something else to do, so he left after saying that.
Tao Yaoyao stood in the yard. The sun was shining brightly today, but she couldn't be happy no matter what.
"Miss, I bought everything you asked for."
This time, Tao Yaoyao paid a lot of money for running errands. They all wanted to show off, so the speed was much faster than before. Tao Yaoyao withdrew from his thoughts and called some of them to come in to help.
The four of them were busy all day, and at dusk, she finally arranged all the mechanisms and poisons.
At this time, Qiu Gui ran back with a smile, "Miss, the second lady is so stupid. She has memorized such a point of law all day long and hasn't even recited it, and now she is still kneeling outside."
Qiu Gui came back for dinner and reported the situation to her.
Tao Yaoyao glanced at Qiu Gui dumbfounded. She couldn't memorize more than 3,000 laws and regulations in one day. Her rhetoric was obviously trying to jeopardize her and teach her a lesson. It was good for her that she actually thought Tao Yan How stupid.
However, such an impulsive temper is indeed stupid.
"Eat quickly and rest early after eating. There is no need to go over to the second lady's side."
Qiu Gui finally saw the second young lady being defeated once, wishing she could stare at her without blinking. Now when she heard the eldest lady said she wouldn't let him go, she became anxious, "Why? Miss, do you think the slave's job is not good enough?"
"No." Tao Yaoyao glanced out the window, then leaned over and whispered, "There is a thunderstorm tonight. I'm afraid it will disturb you, so I want you to go to bed early."
thunderstorm?
Where do thunderstorms come from in the middle of winter?
Qiu Gui took the bowl and chopsticks and took a look outside. She saw the moon and stars in the sky and the stars on the ground. The more she thought about it, the stranger it became. Tao Yaoyao ignored it and went to wash up after eating.
As soon as midnight arrived, the bell in the yard rang, and then a gust of cold wind blew open the window in the house. Tao Yaoyao had woken up long ago. Hearing the sound, he stood up with a dagger in one hand and medicine powder in the other. .
