Chapter 206 How Dare You Kill Me
"That day you sent someone to tell the Third Prince that you had evidence that could bring me down, bring down King He, and destroy the entire Zhao family."
"You will meet in the Begonia Forest of Pilu Temple. Under the stone Buddha, you will make a deal with the Third Prince."
"Today is Fang Yun's wedding. The Third Prince sent people out of the city overnight, intending to go to the manor to snatch Zhao Fanglan out as a witness to destroy the Zhao family."
"You waited until today to catch the Zhao family off guard. You thought that everyone in the Zhao family was busy today, and you were sure that the Zhao family would not remember Zhao Fanglan from the manor, and their defenses were weak, so you decided to snatch him away today."
Zhao Fangyu spoke in a gentle tone, but every word he said carried an irrefutable force. It was as if every word was an invisible nail, smashing Meng Yunxiang's sophistry one by one.
She did not show any emotion, and her figure was not as tall and majestic as a man's. Compared with Zhou Qinghe standing behind the armchair, she could even be said to be petite.
But even with such a thin body, he was able to count all the people present.
The Mei family, the Song family, the Meng family, the Zhao family...
Four prosperous families who had established themselves in the capital and had their own place in the capital were arbitrarily flattened and rounded in her hands.
She doesn't need to bleed to death to have an indescribable majestic aura.
There was no need to resort to those cunning means. Her calculations from beginning to end were all straightforward, but people could not avoid them. They could only watch themselves being led into the game and used by her.
That was what the letter said, but that was all it said.
There was no witness or physical evidence, but no one dared to question the authenticity of the news.
Zhao Fangyu acted too calm and composed, and it seemed as if she could see through the whole situation with just one look.
The eldest lady was still sitting at the top, watching every move of Zhao Fangyu.
She knew Zhao Fangyu's good intentions. She schemed against many people but never touched the Li family at all.
Zhao Fangyu deliberately invited Meng Yangjiang, but in fact she had a better choice, Xun Ge'er.
He is the only legitimate son of the Duke of Li, the one who will inherit the title of Duke in the future, and also Meng Yanzhen's biological brother.
But the person Zhao Fangyu invited was Meng Yanjiang, who was deliberately picking out the Li family. The scene was chaotic, with all kinds of relationships and entanglements that were more difficult to distinguish than a tangled ball of thread.
That was the child she raised, from the time he was six or seven years old until now, and now... the child is also supporting her.
She kept scolding Zhao Minshan, and all of her accusations pointed to Zhao Minshan's unkindness as a father. Zhao Fangyu could clearly use this incident to completely drag down those who were just watching from the sidelines.
But she didn't, and even the Second Prince rarely met Li officials.
Mother Cui had tears in her eyes, and the eldest lady had mixed feelings, but she was mostly happy.
Even though Zhao Minshan had many faults, most of the children born to him inherited his intelligence.
Somehow, Zhao Fangjin and the eldest lady's eyes met. Zhao Fangjin smiled at her, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
The little girls who once hid behind her and timidly looked out have all grown up.
The eldest lady felt that time passed too quickly. These children had grown up in the blink of an eye, and now they were hiding things from her and protecting her, wanting to give her a sense of security and peace...
Zhao Fangyu didn't notice any of this, and looked indifferently as if he was looking at another Zhao Fanglan.
Meng Yunxiang raised her head, but because she was kneeling, she could only look up at Zhao Fangyu who was looking down at her.
Zhao Fangyu was so beautiful that even the candlelight preferred her.
The flickering candlelight and the dim light in the corner made her seem even more mysterious, so beautiful that it was blasphemous to even think about her.
Why? Meng Yunxiang didn't understand. She had thought about it for many years but still couldn't figure it out. Why could Zhao Fangyu sit on the Diaoyutai throne and why was her life so good?
She is a princess, she has so much gold and silver, and such a noble status, even the Crane King dotes on her alone!
But as they were both born as concubines, she wanted to climb up the social ladder. Even Zhao Fangyu could integrate into a powerful and aristocratic family like the Li family, and was familiar with the legitimate daughters of their own family and they had such a good relationship!
Why can't she?
Why can Zhao Fangyu marry the second prince, but she can’t marry the third prince?
She thought she was no worse than Zhao Fangyu. She could also make perfumes and was proficient in music theory and poetry. Why didn't everyone's eyes fall on her?
Meng Yanzhen... Zhao Fangjin... Zhao Fangyu...
The first two are legitimate daughters from prominent families, so what is Zhao Fangyu?
She was just a lowly person who crawled out of a poor concubine's belly. Why should the good fortune in this world only be given to Zhao Fangyu? !
There was confusion and madness in her eyes. Years of inexplicable paranoia were like chains deeply embedded in her bones and blood.
There were countless demons in her mind bewitching her. When she spoke, her voice was very soft, confused, and then slowly firm:
"The Crane Princess is extremely powerful. It would be easy for her to crush me to death."
"I am just a concubine's daughter who is in love with the Third Prince. I am worlds apart from the Princess."
"But Yun Xiang still said that those who are innocent are innocent. If Princess He insists on believing that the mutual affection between me and the Third Prince is a conspiracy, please come up with a more rigorous excuse."
"Even though my life is as fragile as cattail grass, I will die cleanly. If I disappear from the scene, the Third Prince will seek justice for me."
Meng Yunxiang's eyes were burning, and their brightness was astonishingly bright.
Everyone seemed to see her paranoia, and her eyes were full of ambition.
Meng Yunxiang was certain that Zhao Fangyu would not dare to treat her the same way he treated Zhao Fanglan, and she believed that her third prince would rescue her.
Zhao Fangyu was being stared at, and she seemed to see a poisonous snake behind Meng Yunxiang that only she could see, spitting out its tongue and baring its fangs, waiting for her to relax for a moment, and then rushing up to give her a fatal blow.
But Zhao Fangyu will not make the same mistake again. If you don't get rid of the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze.
Aunt Qian taught her the truth at the cost of her life.
"Thanks to you for going to great lengths to search the entire capital to find her trace."
"The second young lady of the Meng family and the third young lady of the Zhao family agreed to recuperate at the hot spring manor, but the third young lady suddenly fell ill and unfortunately died suddenly, and the disease was passed on to the second young lady."
Zhao Fangyu spoke slowly. She looked Meng Yunxiang straight in the eye without fear.
Meng Yunxiang has ambitions, and so does she, even her ambitions seem wishful thinking to the world.
There were many things she wanted to do, but she couldn't accomplish any of those big things by being too tactful.
She doesn't want to be a virtuous and helpful wife, she wants to be a formidable chess player in the capital of Daliang.
One sentence determined Meng Yunxiang's life or death.
Meng Yunxiang stared at her for a long time, until she was sure that she was not joking. Mother Cui had already brought the medicine over. She was finally convinced that Zhao Fangyu was really going to kill her here!
"How dare you?! The Third Prince and I are in love, how dare you kill me!"
