Defeat

Shu Yutong sat on the side, watching him with a furious expression, and sneered, “You’re still thinking about the river lanterns. Don’t you realize how dangerous tonight is?”

She rested her elbows on her knees, holding her chin in her hands, and continued, “Luckily, Master wasn’t there. I’m still scared just thinking about it! What if they were after Master? What would we do?”

Huangfu Lingyao pondered on that.

In fact, he should have anticipated trouble today, but he was unsure about the methods the other party would employ.

However, since precautions were taken, he tried his best to keep Liu Shimei away from Zhang Miaozhen and Miao Linglong, closely monitoring his wife’s every move.

Sure enough, Zhang Miaozhen fell into a trap!

It’s not that he was heartless and indifferent to Zhang Miaozhen’s life or death. It’s just that in the selection of the Crown Prince’s Consort, with four candidates and the power play among the families behind the scenes, such schemes were bound to happen sooner or later.

What could he do to help? He couldn’t just abandon his wife and follow behind Zhang Miaozhen to protect her.

Didn’t the Zhang family have guards? Zhang Miaozhen had two with her!

Even the eldest son of the Zhang family accompanied Zhang Miaozhen. However, in this situation, Zhang Miaozhen still encountered trouble!

In the end, it was all caused by Huangfu He!

Turning around and seeing Liu Shimei silent after getting on the carriage, he felt a pang of anxiety and asked, “Wife, what’s wrong with you?”

Shu Yutong also looked at her and asked, “Master, are you worried about Miss Zhang?”

Liu Shimei came to her senses, touched Shu Yutong’s head, and pulled her silly puppy’s hand. She said, “I’ve been thinking about what happened tonight. It’s mostly the Miao family’s doing. However, they dared to do such a thing right under the Crown Prince’s nose, obviously planning it well, leaving no evidence behind. So, Miaozhen this time probably suffered a loss for nothing.”

Zhang Miaozhen didn’t want to be the Crown Princess, so being removed from that position was considered a good thing.

But this method was too embarrassing, and it was not good for the Zhang family’s reputation. Zhang Miaozhen’s innocence was also tarnished.

Her future marriage prospects would surely be hindered, making it extremely difficult to find a good match!

In this era, how many men wouldn’t mind if their wives fell into the water and got wet, seen by so many people?

Thinking of the incident at Spring Garden where she fell into the lake, Liu Shimei could easily see that even her silly puppy, with his limited intelligence, knew to hold her tightly and prevent others from seeing her wet appearance.

It could be said that unless she was lucky enough to meet a good man, Zhang Miaozhen’s later years were ruined!

“Miaozhen really got a taste of Miao Longzhi’s ruthless methods!” Huangfu Lingyal also wanted to gain from these events. He sneered and said, “Wife, not to criticize, but your useless sister really knows how to act recklessly. She was so ruthless to you, why didn’t she get involved with Miao Longzhi?”

Seeing him say this, Liu Shimei couldn’t help but laugh and said, “She plotted against me not because of her own ability. It was her mother who schemed behind her, giving her a chance to take advantage.”

Moreover, the original owner, being so unsuspecting, was easy to manipulate!

Now, Madame Zhang had gone to the Grand Chancellor’s Temple, and the servants around Madame Zhang and Liu Yan’er had been dealt with, leaving no strategist.

Liu Fuyun understood court politics but didn’t know the methods of the inner courtyard. He even hoped Liu Shimei could help Liu Yan’er.

There was only Xia He left around Liu Yan’er, who also advised her not to act rashly, so Liu Yan’er could only endure!

“Master is laughing even after being plotted against!” Shu Yutong wrinkled her nose, glared at Huangfu Lingyao, and thought, ‘If it weren’t for my master being plotted against, how could she have this fiance?’

However, thinking about it, this fiance was sometimes silly… But apart from that, everything else wasn’t bad, right?

He treated Master well, gave her delicious food, hugged her to make her feel the warmth of having a father, and even protected her…

Well, I’ll reluctantly accept him!
