Shengjing Noble

Chapter 367 Reciprocity

"If I marry her, not only can I take all the Lu family's property to support my brother, but I can also take Yinyin as my concubine. Most importantly, I can trample that bitch Su Lanyin under my feet. It's like killing three birds with one stone!"

Su Lanxin smiled and nodded: "Yes, so do you think it's okay?"

"Of course! But..."

"what happened?"

"But will Su Lanyin agree?"

"With this, I'm not afraid that she won't agree."

Su Lanxin took out a bottle of medicine and put it into Fu Mingli's hand, her eyes full of sinister viciousness.

"Your Majesty, Su Lanyin has an extremely sensitive sense of smell. Ordinary medicines cannot be hidden from her, but this medicine is different. She will definitely not be able to guard against it."

"So awesome?"

"You'll know once you try it."

Su Lanyin, who was hiding behind the rockery, was very curious for a moment. She stretched her neck to see what the medicine was, but accidentally stepped on a branch under her feet, which made a "crunch" sound.

The two people who were plotting suddenly panicked.

"who!"

Fu Mingli said as he rushed out to check, but he only saw a wild cat running past, and no one else.

Su Lanxin also ran out and asked nervously, "Who is it?"

"It's just a wild cat. No one heard it. Don't worry."

"That's good."

"It's not suitable to stay here for long, let's leave first."

"Okay, let's play it by ear tonight."

After they finished talking, they went their separate ways and disappeared at the end of the path.

On the roof not far away, two people were lying.

Su Lanyin's face turned pale, and her tense body softened. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately...Fortunately, Your Majesty, you arrived in time."

Fu Wuyang sat up and said, "How come you still have the habit of eavesdropping?"

"They are studying how to harm me, and I can't listen?"

"Did you hear that clearly?"

"Listen clearly."

"What are they going to do?" Fu Wuyang was very curious.

Su Lanyin clenched her fists in anger, looking fierce: "These two bastards are really going too far. They actually want to marry me!"

"Marry you...what?!" Fu Wuyang was so surprised that his voice rose.

She quickly went over and covered his mouth.

"Shh! Be careful, the walls have ears!"

Fu Wuyang blinked and looked at her little face so close to him. Countless soft lights flashed in his eyes, full of doting.

"Um……"

Su Lanyin didn't realize how ambiguous their behavior was. Her mind was full of what she had just heard, and she was so angry that her face looked serious.

"This damn Su Lanxi actually wants to use the same trick to frame me again. Doesn't she have any new tricks?"

Fu Wuyang's mouth was covered, but he was curious, so he just asked vaguely without opening his mouth: "What trick?"

"I didn't finish listening, but my initial analysis showed that they wanted to drug me and make me marry Fu Mingli."

When Fu Wuyang heard this, he pushed her hand away angrily, with anger in his eyes.

"This kid Fu Mingli...wait, didn't he bully you in the government office before?"

"Yes, so he married me."

"No... let me think it over... why did he marry you?" Fu Wuyang became more and more confused the more he listened.

Su Lanyin told him everything she had just heard.

"So, he married you to get revenge on you?"

"Not only that, he also covets our Lu family's property."

"I have heard a little about him and the dancer. They knew each other since childhood and were originally planning to get engaged. But something happened to the Lan family and Lan Yinyin was demoted to a slave, so the marriage was called off."

"Even if their relationship is not going well, they shouldn't use me as a sacrifice, right?"

"Fu Mingli is indeed a despicable person. Don't worry, I am here and will not let anything happen to you."

Su Lanyin curled her lips: "Forget it, I'll just rely on myself."

"Why, you don't trust me?"

"That's not the case. I'm just worried..."

"worry about what?"

"Fu Mingli is your nephew after all."

"Are you afraid that I will favor him?"

"I'm afraid that if you help me deal with him and the emperor finds out, it will embarrass you."

Fu Wuyang was stunned, and his heart was inexplicably warmed. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"So... you are concerned about me?"

Su Lanyin was stunned by his burning gaze and turned her head away. "I... I was just returning the favor. Your Majesty cared about me first."

"I don't care about you." He deliberately said stubbornly.

"Then why did you suddenly appear and carry me to the roof?"

"I'm just taking care of you."

"Why are you taking care of me?"

"You...you are my savior."

"Is it that simple?" Su Lanyin looked at him suspiciously.

"Yes, what about you? Why do you think I do this?" Fu Wuyang slowly approached her, squinting his eyes and staring at her without blinking.

"Uh……"

Her face suddenly turned red, her mind went blank, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment. Her body subconsciously stepped back, but she accidentally lost her balance.

"what……"

Su Lanyin screamed, rolled down from the roof, and quickly closed her eyes.

She thought to herself, it’s over, my ribs haven’t healed yet and now I’m going to get hurt again!

This is good too. She was sent home and didn't have to deal with Su Lanxin and Fu Mingli.

The imagined pain did not come, instead I was embraced by a warm and broad embrace.

She opened her eyes and saw Fu Wuyang's handsome face with sharp edges in front of her. His peach blossom eyes were staring at her with interest.

"Why are you always so reckless?"

He teased with a smile, his tone indescribably doting.

Su Lanyin pushed him away with a red face, muttering in dissatisfaction: "Who was so reckless... I wasn't."

In this life, before she met him, she had always been calm and steady. She didn't know what happened to her recently, and she felt so confused.

"I should go back now. It would be bad if I was discovered later."

After saying that, Su Lanyin turned around and fled, as if Fu Wuyang was a monster.

The girl ran towards the end of the corridor. The wind blew, and her moon-white dress fluttered in the air. Her ink-black long hair followed behind her, giving people the illusion that she was running out of a painting.

Fu Wuyang just looked quietly at the direction she left, with a smile that was still full of satisfaction in his eyes.

……

After that, the birthday party went on as usual without any unexpected events until the fireworks show began.

As the sky gradually darkened, the guests in the Imperial Garden gathered in groups of three or five to chat.

Su Lanyin knew that Su Lanxin and Fu Mingli were plotting against her, so she just sat there the whole time, not even touching the food and drinks in front of her.

She thought this was cautious enough, but she still couldn't prevent someone from deliberately harming her.

Just like in her previous life, Li Yulian, the eldest daughter of the Minister of War, came over with a glass of wine.

Seeing that the glass of wine was about to "accidentally" spill onto her dress, Su Lanyin curled her lips into a sneer.

She raised her foot and kicked over the low table in front of her, hitting Li Yulian's calf and causing her to trip.

The wine glass in her hand also flew out, and the wine inside splashed right onto Su Lanxin who was watching the show next to her.
