The Princess Wei Yang

Chapter 84 : Such Evil

Li Chang Xiao heard this, but feared that it would make matters worse. “Do not utter nonsense!” she hurriedly said, and left as quickly. Yin’er saw her Xiaojie’s anxiety and had no choice but to chase after her, without further elaboration.

“How could Da Furen be so evil? She never used to show it on her face in the past.” Li Weiyang muttered to herself.

Li Min De laughed coldly. “This might not be the end of it!” He crooked his finger as a signal, and a guard dressed in black actually emerged from the trees and landed softly in front of him. “Master.”

Having used to seeing Li Min De’s secret guards, Li Weiyang did not feel much surprise.

“Tell me what you’ve discovered from your investigations.”

“Yes. Yesterday Si Yiniang advised Si Xiaojie, saying that Wu Xiaojie had just been targeted by Da Furen, so she should try to save her younger sister’s life; Si Xiaojie took her bedding over to Da Furen’s room in the middle of the night. Da Furen did order her servants to prepare a soft bed for her, but Si Xiaojie had barely slept when she was ordered to fetch tea, massage legs, etc. In a single night, she was summoned around seven to eight times; Si Xiaojie was being treated like a Yatou.

Li Min De sighed and said: “Alright, you may leave us.”

Li Weiyang couldn’t help but shake her head. “Da Furen needs someone to take care of her, she could have asked her Yatous, why would she torture Si Mei like that and take the risk of people accusing her of ill-treating her illegitimate daughter? Isn’t this strange?”

“Perhaps after she fell ill, her personality become odd?” Li Min De thought.

This seemed like a far-fetched explanation, Li Weiyang thought it was more likely that she was venting her rage and anger at Li Chang Xiao, in return for her sister biting off her ear.

They thought that this matter was considered case closed, but who knew on the very same night, something happened. It was unclear how, but Li Chang Xiao broke a jade pendant that Da Furen loved, causing her to get thrown out of her house after getting a fierce scolding.

The next day, Du Mama was all smiles when she came over to Li Weiyang’s residence. “Xianzhu, originally Da Furen did not want to burden you, however, as you know, Si Xiaojie has fallen ill…”

Upon hearing the news, Li Weiyang smiled blandly. “Oh, is it? I wonder what instructions Muqin has for me?”

“Furen would like to request for Xianzhu to take care of her when she is sick.” Du Mama lowered her eyes and said respectfully.

Li Weiyang simply nodded and agreed. “It is only right, I will be there in a moment.”

The moment Du Mama left, Li Min De exploded in anger. “Sanjie, Da Furen is too much, you should show her what you’re made of!”

Ever since San Furen passed away, Da Furen had constantly targeted Li Weiyang. Li Min De gritted his teeth in anger; if he had known this would happen, he should have scared the life out of her the last time.

Li Weiyang could see the anger and unwillingness on his face, and let out a laugh. She lightly picked up the pot of tea in front of her, and slowly and steadily poured out a cup. “Why do you bother so much?”

Seeing her calm smile, Li Min De felt increasingly unhappy, and said anxiously: “ Sanjie, that witch will surely take the chance to torture you…”

“San Di!”

Li Min De was like an ant hopping on a hot stove, almost as if he had words he couldn’t bring himself to say. Li Weiyang cleared her throat, breaking off his original speech. “What you should say and shouldn’t say, have you forgotten?”
