Wanyan Xu and Zi Yan both ju when or why Su Yi had returned after they had seen him leave They turned, only to see Su Yi step out fro hiave a ”hu in a displeased , don't tell me that you will pay noelse but your personal feelings? To think that you cannot adjust even a little to acco circumstances You can even treat your beloved servant so harshly, even when she did not co”
Wanyan Xu was rendered speechless, but he thought in his heart: Su Su, these words are really laughable If even frareat crireat crime?He knew that in his heart, Su Yi wished to save Zi Yan and so after thinking a while he said: “Su Su why have you returned here? Your body is still weak, you should go back to the palace and concentrate on recuperating, leave this matter to for me to handle”
Su Yi sht here, I'm afraid that Miss Zi Yan will feel even unhappier in her heart, feeling that I really can exercise soacious intellect But there , and so here Ithat will arouse her suspicions and invite her derision Besides, she also once said that if I were to becoain, no matter what I do to her, she will not protest”
So saying, he walked in front of her and said: “I know that you are a woman that has a character tes that you do not wish for ratiate yourself with ht of them myself? Shuo Er is but a child, it is hardly likely that he would suddenly think of exa that poem for a clue Not to mention that the clue was so subtle that even I failed to notice it so how could he have unravelled the puzzle in mere moments? Besides, if it weren't for Miss's assistance, hoould Honourable Minister He have discovered in such a timely fashi+on that General Yu had captured those scholars and were using theed to find them so rapidly You had me come and listen in because you wanted to release lad that I did not think much further But as I was on the way back to the palace, the more I puzzled over the whole affair, thewas off Wanyan had not yet dismissed me, so ould you be in a hurry to have me leave? You are a person who has always carried deep reverence for your master in your heart, therefore you would not easily coression I know that you do not wish to be indebted to h your master is indeed brilliant, he still needs to have capable assistants such as you Could you really bear to abandon hi to say that he could just retrain another person, it would take countless years”
Zi Yantihtly: “Since the consort knows Zi Yan's ood intentions are wasted onyou endured, even if you don't hold the past against me, Zi Yan also does not have the face to receive the Empress's benediction”
Her voice had just faded when Zi Nong had sta this, don’t tell me”
Before she could finish, Zi Yan's severe eyes had shi+fted to her and she said gravely: “Zi Nong, we the four sisters have grown up together, you should understand what sort of person I a, she knelt in front of Su Yi and said: “Zi Yan has given the Consort reat nanimity If the Consort will henceforth be dedicated to assisting the Erets”
In his heart Su Yi knew that this servant girl was really too proud to accept anyto persuade her with kind words was a tactic that was doomed to failure He rolled his eyes, and a new idea took hold in his heart He gave a cold laugh and said: “Your courage is really cority In addition, you are willing to take responsibility for your actions But the mortal world is such that in all likelihood, out of every tento one's wish, so how could you expect to be the exception and that things will go exactly to your wishes? Wanyan Xu and Zi Nong both know that previously, I had similarly wished for death so that I could be a martyr for my country, but as the result? And now, you also wish for death as a way to atone for your cris be so easy? Since your end is to be decided byand you will atone for your criood deeds that you shall do from now until the day of your death You don't have to think that I aood-hearted and you do not need to feel indebted to e I have endured a lot of suffering and humiliation, if the only compensation I receive is to be an easy death for you, then how could the rage in , he looked and Wanyan Xu and said: “This is what I want, so that I can vent er What is your opinion on this?”
Just by looking at his expression, Wanyan Xu could tell that Su Yi was determined to protect Zi Yan His own heart was already loathe to part with his beloved servant and besides, since the victim of the crime had already made his will known, he really did not need to be inflexible any Zi Yan Therefore he smiled and said: “Since the injured party has stated his wishes, how can I have any further comments This insolent servant had inflicted so much pain upon you, she should be yours to deal with as you see fit anyway” With that said, he turned to Zi Yan and continued speaking: “have you heard that? You should thank the Eood deeds to bring good fortune to him so as to redeem yourself”
At this verdict, a s's face but Zi Yan could only thank Su Yi grudgingly before she took her leave and left Zi Nong could not help but laugh before saying: “The Consort need notthe four of us, she is the h her actions are ruthless at times, she does not actually have a wicked nature Don't jump to conclusions solely because her face did not show any feelings of gratitude just now; actually in her heart she kno to distinguish between good and bad outcomes”
Su Yi sratitude towards irl is somewhat too prideful, she is also a person who is driven by her convictions Moreover, she had toldbefore that if I were to become a member of the Inner Court, she would definitely find a way to deal with me From that, we can see that she clearly has a very candid character In coainst others on the sly, she is much more respectable Humph humph” With that, he looked at his beloved and Wanyan Xu i of that old score he had incurred long ago in the old Jin Liao Palace Quickly, he dodged the accusation by giving a few ”heh heh” laughs
Suddenly, they heard so an audience Wanyan Xu furrowed his brows and said: “He just retired a short while ago, why is he suddenly requesting an audience again? Oh well, it must surely be that there has been some new developments in this case, let's listen to what he has to say” He had actually intended to sit dohile holding Su Yi, but Su Yiat the back of the screen with Zi Nong
