Chapter 271 You Dare Not Kill Me!

“Besides that, did they also tell you that I would turn around and accuse them of having an affair, and that I broke off the engagement because I discovered their affair?”

“Oh right, apart from these, did they also tell you that I would say that everyone in the capital knows about their scandal?”

“Let me think, what else would they say to you?”

“Ah, I’ve got it. To avoid revealing any flaws, they must have also told you that after you refuted the first two accusations, I would then say that the Shen family caused the destruction of my Yu family and seized my Yu family’s property?”

“And then, did they also explain to you that those were actually the dowry the Shen family originally gave to my mother? But my mother was useless, and after her husband died, she was almost bullied by the Yu clan, so they took back the property. Unexpectedly, I, the white-eyed wolf, would think that they killed my father and swallowed my family’s wealth?”

“So? Miss Song, is that what Shen Ke and Qin Yiliu said to you?”

Yu Qingwu smiled faintly, unhurriedly, but completely blocked all paths for Shen Ke and Qin Yiliu, and also forced back the angry scolding that Song Yilan had on the tip of her tongue.

At this moment, Song Yilan was completely frozen.

She gritted her teeth and glared at Yu Qingwu, her mind already blank.

Yes, that was indeed what Shen Ke and Qin Yiliu had told her when she came.

Although they didn’t directly instigate her, they only spoke of the faults of the woman in front of her, occasionally revealing a look of sympathy, saying that this Crown Princess came from a pitiful background, so her psychology was a bit twisted, and therefore she didn’t like anyone, treating benefactors as enemies.

In fact, in their mouths, this Crown Princess was a brainless fool who used her looks to win favor.

Moreover, she was emotionally unstable, paranoid, and yet didn’t respect herself.

But looking at her now, this woman, whether she was paranoid or not was debatable, but her temperament was very indifferent.

She seemed to be calm and composed at all times.

And she didn’t seem as foolish as Qin Yiliu and Brother Shen Ke had said.

It even seemed like she had seen through her at a glance, seen through them who were far away in Qingzhou.

For a moment, Song Yilan paused.

At the same time, she couldn’t accept the possibility that she had been deceived and used.

She frowned, and under the pain, a look of annoyance and confusion appeared in her eyes.

She bit her lip, with a hint of not giving up until all hope was lost, and snorted coldly, refuting Yu Qingwu, “You… you vixen, you’re really eloquent, but you can’t change the fact that Brother Shen Ke was harmed by you. I’m telling you, even if you talk until the end of time, I won’t believe you…”

Although she said that, the dodging in Song Yilan’s eyes still betrayed her.

Not only her, but Song Guan, who was beside her, also seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and his face instantly turned extremely ugly.

Yu Qingwu folded her hands in front of her chest, still with that cold and indifferent expression.

She smiled faintly and glanced at Song Yilan, laughing softly, “Miss Song, you already believe it, don’t you?”

“Actually, before you came, you still had some doubts about Shen Ke and Qin Yiliu, didn’t you?”

“I… I didn’t, you must not try to sow discord…”

“Didn’t? If you didn’t, why did you beat that Qin woman in the street back then?”

“Some things, what others say is useless. Right and wrong can only be observed by yourself. As the saying goes, time will reveal a person’s heart. Do you really not doubt at all whether Qin Yiliu and Shen Ke are clean?”

Yu Qingwu’s tone was calm, and as she spoke, she sat back down on the stool.

The so-called heart-wrenching was nothing more than completely amplifying people’s inner desires and doubts.

Moreover, there was originally a dirty relationship between Shen Ke and Qin Yiliu.

Even if the two of them tried to hide it, as long as a detail was caught and pondered, it would naturally make Song Yilan suspicious again.

What’s more, although Song Yilan was impulsive and reckless, she was, after all, the most beloved little daughter of the Song Tusi (chieftain). It was not easy for her to stand out among the many children of the Song Tusi.

It was either because of her own ability, or her mother’s ability.

Or, the maternal family of her mother was powerful.

But no matter which it was, Song Yilan grew up in an environment of open and secret strife.

Even if her brain was simple, she wouldn’t be deceived so completely.

In the end, part of the reason was because she liked Shen Ke, and she couldn’t accept it, so when things were unclear, she naturally leaned towards Shen Ke, and also used this self-deception to escape reality.

But, if the place that hurt her the most was amplified again and again, she would naturally slowly explain the reality.

Especially, at this moment of life and death.

However, Song Yilan was, after all, the most beloved daughter of the Song Tusi.

She wanted face, and she still didn’t believe that Yu Qingwu would really dare to do anything to her.

She was slightly stunned for a moment, then shook her head violently, refuting with a lack of confidence, and sneering, “You vixen, do you really think you can read minds? I… I’m telling you! Brother Shen Ke treats me very well, and I have a very good relationship with Sister Qin! Before long, Sister Qin will be my sister-in-law!”

“You want me to believe you with just a few words now, and not believe my own sister-in-law! Do you really think I’m stupid?”

“Fine, a woman like you who only has clinging and no family affection in your heart naturally finds it difficult to understand the preciousness of family affection, let alone the trust that should exist between family members. To kill or to slice, do as you please!”

Perhaps she had determined that Yu Qingwu would not dare to do anything to her, and at the end, Song Yilan’s confidence came back.

She snorted coldly, glanced away extremely arrogantly, with an attitude of ‘I’ll let you do whatever you want’.

Looking at her behavior, Yu Qingwu couldn’t help but sneer in her heart.

It had to be said that Shen Ke and Qin Yiliu had calculated very well.

The two of them probably thought that she wouldn’t dare to kill Song Yilan, and even if she really had the courage to kill Song Yilan, she would definitely be held accountable, and either way, she would die.

Yu Qingwu indeed would not kill Song Yilan, and there was no need to.

But, she would not let her go easily.

This daughter of the Song Tusi had delivered herself to her door, so if she didn’t make use of her, how could she be worthy of Qin Yiliu and Shen Ke’s painstaking efforts?

Perhaps, she could also use Song Yilan’s hand to call for the Shen family to be punished for the crimes of one person, and the whole family would be executed.

Thinking this way, Yu Qingwu ignored Song Yilan.

She only glanced lightly at Su Yan and said to her, “Su Yan, let them go.”

“Let them go?” Hearing this, Su Yan was stunned, and in addition to being surprised, she also didn’t understand.

But after a moment, she seemed to have thought of something, and frowned as she asked Yu Qingwu, “Crown Princess, why do you want to let them go? This Song Yilan is just the daughter of a Tusi. She publicly attacked you, and even if it falls before His Majesty, she will be beaten to death. Why are you afraid of them?”

Of course, she wasn’t afraid…

It’s just that if they were tied up, they couldn’t be used.

“Let them go.” Yu Qingwu didn’t answer, but gave Su Yan another order.
