Chapter 383 Cannon Fodder Bastard Sister 9
Chapter 383 Cannon Fodder Bastard Sister 9
"Father, how exactly did my mother die?"
Su Wunian stared intently at the Grand Tutor, trying to discern something from his face.
Unfortunately, the Grand Tutor was truly wronged; he didn't know.
“Nian’er, your mother died suddenly from heart palpitations. I have already had the imperial physician examine her. You don’t need to suspect that someone harmed her.”
"No, impossible, I absolutely refuse to believe it. My mother has always been in good health, how could she suddenly experience heart palpitations?"
Su Wunian's knowledge came from her previous two lives, and she was very clear about her mother's health.
He could never have died if no one had harmed him.
"Nian'er, don't overthink it. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Crown Prince to send someone to investigate. If your mother was really murdered, I will definitely give her justice."
The Grand Tutor spoke with conviction, not like he was lying, but if it wasn't him, then who would want Mother to die?
The only people Su Wunian could think of besides her father were Aunt Yue and her daughter.
Yes, it must be them. They are the most ruthless people in the manor.
Thinking of this, she stared at the Grand Tutor for a moment.
"I will find out the truth for my mother. I just hope that my father will keep his word."
"That's natural."
The Grand Tutor was not ashamed of things he had not done.
Su Wunian turned and left the study, but at the corner of the corridor, she saw the Crown Prince and Su Wanrou.
The two were pulling and tugging at each other while talking.
"Crown Prince, Rou'er really misses you so much. Don't you really want Rou'er anymore?"
The crown prince took two steps back, creating some distance between himself and her.
There are already enough rumors circulating about them; if anything else gets out, he'll really anger his father.
"Rou'er, listen to me. You should stay by General Baili's side. Now that you've married him, you should win him over and make him work for you."
"When I have accomplished my great task, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."
Su Wanrou was skeptical of the Crown Prince's words. If she really became Baili Xuance's woman, wouldn't the Crown Prince despise her?
"Crown Prince, how could you bear to do that? Rou'er only has you in her heart, how could she do anything to betray you..."
Her eyes were brimming with tears, her fingertips gripping his sleeve tightly, her eyes shimmering like a pool of spring water.
The crown prince looked at her tearful appearance, and a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.
However, this guilt was soon replaced by ambition.
"Rou'er, those things are nothing."
"Anyway, you've slept with General Baili before. Once you've done it before, you'll get used to it. I don't care about that."
"Once I ascend the throne, I will bestow upon you the title of Imperial Concubine and grant you unparalleled favor in the harem."
Su Wanrou felt a pang of grievance, but she still agreed in the end.
Next, the Crown Prince made a series of promises to Su Wanrou before the two parted ways.
All of this was overheard by Su Wunian, who was hiding behind a pillar.
The shamelessness of these two was truly disgusting, as always. Her eyes darkened, filled with surging hatred.
No matter how many lifetimes she is reborn, she will make those two scumbags and bitches die.
Just then, a voice rang out from behind.
"Consort Su".
It is Baili Xuance.
Their eyes met, but neither of them spoke. Their eyes seemed to hold a thousand words, yet they didn't know where to begin.
“General Baili.” She lowered her eyes to avoid his gaze and nodded to him.
As they brushed past each other, he grabbed her sleeve. "Do you hate me that much?"
He knew he shouldn't ask, but he still wanted to know.
"Do I hate it? No, I just don't like it that much either."
Her voice was soft, as if it might drift away in the wind at any moment, yet it struck his heart like a heavy hammer, causing a sharp, piercing pain.
"General Baili, do not easily trust my half-sister and the Crown Prince. I have said all I have to say. Please consider this carefully."
She forcefully pulled her sleeve out of his grasp, turned and left without looking back.
Behind him, he pressed urgently, "Why?"
She knew what he was asking about, not about the Crown Prince and Su Wanrou, but she didn't stop walking and didn't want to answer him.
Why?
Ah, she wants to know why too.
Why could he give up everything for her, just to be with her, yet fail to cherish her after he got her?
Is it important? Not that important anymore.
After everyone had left, Qingmo jumped down from the roof.
Perfect. She watched another episode of the TV series.
She's like a reader following the story, only causing trouble at crucial moments; otherwise, she's practically invisible.
Sure enough, none of the four main characters even gave her a second glance; she really is destined to be cannon fodder.
He patted off imaginary dust from his clothes and muttered, "Sooner or later I'll make sure the four of you are all sitting at the same table. Then you'll all have eyes for me, hmph."
The proud little princess pouted and left, still having to go and mourn her deceased mistress.
After the funeral was over, Su Wunian returned to the Crown Prince's residence.
After spending several days in her room feeling depressed, she suddenly realized that the reason she couldn't protect her mother was simply because she was too weak and lacked the strength.
In this life, she doesn't want anything else; she wants overwhelming power.
"Xiao Cui, go and invite the Crown Prince over for dinner."
Xiao Cui accepted the order and left.
A short while later, the crown prince arrived leisurely.
Su Wunian greeted the prince with a smile and personally poured wine and served him dishes.
The Crown Prince was somewhat flattered by her unusual attitude, asking, "Why is Consort so hospitable today?"
Su Wunian gave a bitter smile. "Your Highness, now that I have married you, I must naturally fulfill my duties as a concubine."
"My mother's sudden passing has made me realize many things. I should cherish the people around me. I hope that we can live in harmony and harmony in the future. I beg Your Highness to have mercy on me."
During the meal, Su Wunian smiled sweetly and chatted happily with the Crown Prince, occasionally serving him food.
The crown prince was so captivated by her gentle appearance that he forgot she was pregnant.
Just as the two were beginning to feel affection, a strange smell wafted out, almost making Su Wunian gag.
"Your Highness, can you smell anything?"
At this moment, the Crown Prince's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He didn't have time to explain in detail to her, so he hurriedly turned and left, his steps slightly flustered.
"Ugh~"
As soon as he left, Su Wunian felt that the air was much fresher. How could she smell a stench of excrement on the Crown Prince?
impossible?
Su Wunian felt a chill run down her spine. She had already forced herself to please this disgusting man, how could there be anything more disgusting?
"yue~"
The Crown Prince hurriedly went back to take a bath. Fortunately, he was already used to it and had already arranged for a chamber pot to be prepared in his room.
He thought he probably didn't want to see Su Wunian for a while; it was just too embarrassing.
Poor Crown Prince, now he doesn't even dare to touch women casually.
If he were to suffer a major setback along the way, he would likely make headlines in the capital once again.
