Chapter 8: Let the rumors fly for a while

As for her stepmother and stepsister, how could they not let her have an easy time in Ye Mansion in her first life, she will not make it easy for them in this life either!

After getting rid of them, Fang Xu, Wenliu and the prince will be next.

Everyone who has hurt her must not escape!

"Miss, Miss Bamboo Shadow has settled down, and I will serve you and have a rest."

Ji Cui's voice passed through the hall, and as the voice fell, he also walked up to the young lady.

Her thoughts were interrupted and she came back to her senses.

At this time, I felt a hint of pain in my fingertips. I lowered my eyes and realized that my thumbnail had already dug into my flesh unconsciously.

He let go suddenly, and a flash of bright red appeared on the pad of his index finger.

"Ah, why are you bleeding!" Jicui exclaimed with sharp eyes, and hurriedly took out an old handkerchief and wrapped it around her index finger.

Looking at Jicui with a worried face, she suddenly pulled away from the painful memories and felt only a little warmth.

"It's okay, it's just a minor injury. By the way, don't let Zhuying show up for the next few days, and don't be discovered by people in the Ye family. She has dark spots on her face that are easy to identify. If she is recognized, she will probably spread the word.

If it comes to the ears of Zhi Wenliu, such fake death will be discovered."

"It's your fault, please don't worry, Miss." Jicui spoke before she could finish her words.

After that, she got a bedding from who knows where. Although it was shabby but barely usable, she took off her coat and spread it on it so that she could lie down.

The medicine on her back contained sleeping ingredients. At this time, she relaxed and naturally began to feel sleepy. As soon as she lay down on her side, her eyelids became so heavy that she could not open them.

Soon, I fell asleep.

The next day, Ye Shuhua woke up from the soft quilt, feeling soft and comfortable under her body.

She slept very well last night. The ointment sent by Yin Zixun was very effective in relieving pain. After applying it, she felt no pain at all.

She also fell into a deep sleep.

I stood up slowly. The painkillers had worn off and my back started to hurt a little, but I could clearly feel that the wound was healing.

Even if it hurts, it's not as painful as yesterday.

When I stood up, I saw soft bedding and pillows. Just as I was wondering, Ji Cui came over.

"Miss, you're awake, my servant will wash you up."

"Where did you get the quilt?"

Hearing this, Ji Cui shook off the water drops on her hands, took a handkerchief and gently wiped the young lady's hands, while wiping them.

"It was delivered by Mr. Yi's guard last night. I didn't expect the guard to be so attentive. He saw that we had no bedding and told Mr. Yi. Mr. Yi is a good person and asked him to send a complete set of bedding."

Jicui spoke with great enthusiasm, and her words were full of praise for them.

Faced with Mr. Yi's frequent kindness, Ye Shuhua looked unhappy but worried.

What did he want to do? She didn't believe that he had no purpose in doing this.

But she thought hard and couldn't think of anything else she wanted from him.

After all, he is just an unpopular princess at the moment, and it will do him no good to get close to him.

Could it be that he also wants to gain the attention of the Yu family through himself?

The Yu family is the natal family of the Queen Mother, and is the family of his mother's maternal grandfather. They are in charge of military power. Yu Sheng, the eldest son of Yu, is a first-grade Zhenguo general, guarding the border.

Mr. Yu is the chief minister of the cabinet and controls the government affairs.

In the capital, he can be said to be the most powerful among the powerful.

Although Mr. Yu doesn't necessarily love him very much, he is his mother's only bloodline after all, and thanks to Mr. Yu's care and protection these years.

Otherwise, she would not have survived until now, let alone marry Fang Xu.

His father allowed him to live, and Fang Xu agreed to marry him, mostly because of Mr. Yu's protection for him.

But no matter what his purpose is, in this life, she will not become any man's pawn, let alone be used by anyone.

Then, she recalled the picture of flying birds she saw last night.

It seems that I need to investigate this bird picture, so that I can find out whether he is the person I am looking for.

Gu Gu Gu Gu.

My stomach growled at an inappropriate time. It was already breakfast time, but no one came to deliver breakfast.

You don't need to think about it to know that Mrs. Ye did it on purpose.

This was expected by Ye Shuhua. She touched her body immediately and found that she was really destitute. She only had the silver hairpin on her head and a begonia jade hairpin.

As soon as he took off the silver hairpin and wanted Ji Cui to use it as a pawn to buy some food, he saw Bamboo Shadow jumping in from the window, holding several hot steamed buns in paper bags in his arms.

"Master, eat. I ran away to buy this. Don't worry, no one will notice." After explaining, she respectfully placed the buns on the table.

Then he looked at the owner, his brows moved again, and his lips pursed, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know whether he should say it or not.

Finally he spoke, "Master, I went to buy buns and heard rumors about you everywhere."

After a pause, Ye Shuhua nodded to indicate for her to continue, and then continued.

"Everyone is saying that the master is possessed by a evil star. He not only killed the fetus in Princess Wenliu's belly, but also almost killed Princess Wenliu. However, General Fang was kind and did not punish the master too much for this. He only punished the master a little to think about his faults behind closed doors.

The master lost his temper and returned to his parents' house. Everyone said that this happened because of your arrogance and arrogance, master, and his ignorance of good and evil."

In fact, there were more unpleasant words, but they were filtered out by her.

Ye Shuhua was expressionless after hearing this, but her eyes darkened a little, and her gaze fell on somewhere outside the window, watching intently.

It turned out that this was what Fang Xu said when he accepted the divorce letter, but strangely, he didn't spread the rumor that he divorced her, but only spread the rumors about her evil physique.

After being confused for a moment and then thinking about it carefully, she understood.

Originally, he was framed, but if the truth were revealed, he would be bitten to death without knowing it.

Then the hat of the evil star will be more firmly placed on his head.

Moreover, from this point of view, it is obvious that Fang Xu still does not want to leave the Fang Mansion so easily and not become the wife of the Fang Mansion.

However, it probably wasn't that he didn't want to, it was probably that the prince he had taken refuge with didn't want him to give up the good opportunity of using his promotion to seize the Yu family's military power.

After Ye Shuhua thought about it and gathered her thoughts, she heard Jicui's voice complaining.

"These rumors must have come from the Fang family! They are really shameless. Miss, you have been rumored to be a evil star, and now this matter has been spread. Isn't this intentional to ruin your reputation, miss!"

Don’t forget to take a bite of the meat bun at the end.

It seems that the meat buns are from the Fang family.

Zhuying is not as indignant as Jicui. She has been trained in Xiuchun Pavilion for many years and knows that venting anger is useless when encountering problems. The most important thing is to think of countermeasures.

"Master, would you like me to go find the person who spreads the rumors? I can definitely find and stop the rumors." She was trained as a dead soldier, and dead soldiers are the most powerful at hiding and tracking.

When she said she could, she definitely could.

Ye Shuhua knew this, but she shook her head and said: "No, let the rumors fly for a while, it will affect my reputation. It is not good, not for a while. The main thing is that you can't expose it."

As she spoke, she raised her hand to signal the bamboo shadow to come in. She couldn't see it clearly at night, but now she could see it clearly. Half of her face was almost covered with black spots.

This should be because when she was a child, she deliberately ate poison with pigmentation in order to avoid being chased by the Wen family.

"Right now, I need to help you get rid of the dark spots on your face."

As she spoke, Ye Shuhua signaled Ji Cui to get a pen and paper, and said while writing: "Although your father is a doctor, you have only been interested in medicinal materials since you were a child. Even though many years have passed, you should still know some medicinal materials, right?"

Bamboo Shadow did not move, but his heart skipped a beat after hearing this.

Why does the princess know her own affairs so well?

Not only did he know that his real name contained the character for bamboo, but he also knew that he was interested in medicinal materials.

After Ye Shuhua finished speaking, she didn't respond for a long time, and when he raised his eyes, he met her doubtful eyes.

Clearly, Tao.

"You don't need to worry about why I know it. As long as you understand that I will avenge you and you can be used by me, that's enough."

As she spoke, she handed the paper with the medicinal materials written on it in front of her.

Zhuying was very smart and naturally understood what his master meant. He immediately covered up his doubts, took the paper, and nodded vigorously.

Yes, all she needs to do is take revenge and follow her master.

Later, Ye Shuhua took off the jade hairpin on her head, which was a crabapple flower carved from fine mutton-fat jade.

Her mother made it for her before she was born, and she has always worn it. I wonder if it is a blood connection. She has also liked crabapple flowers since she was a child.

However, now she doesn't like it anymore, and even hates it extremely.

When she recalled the moment of her death, the bright red Begonia flowers she saw, and the gloomy words of Wenliu heard in her ears, she felt her scalp numb and her whole body tense, as if she couldn't breathe.

When I see Begonia flowers again, I just feel sick!

After gathering her thoughts, she hurriedly looked away, no longer looking at the hosta, and handed it to Zhuying.

"You go to the pawn shop and pawn this, you should be able to exchange it for twenty taels, then go buy these medicinal materials, and get the rest of the money back. I have other uses. Remember, you must cover your face and be extremely careful."

These medicinal materials were special and Zhuying knew them well enough that she had to buy them.

"Miss, this is the only thing the eldest princess has left for you."

"It doesn't matter, just redeem it when you have money."

Zhuying took the order and disappeared into Ye Mansion.

Ye Shuhua was sitting on the porch. The spring sunshine was warm and not dazzling. It was a rare moment of leisure for her.

But before I had a few sips of tea, someone came.

It was my stepsister Ye Shuyu. She was wearing a water-red gauze skirt with gold silk, twisting her slender waist, and wearing delicate makeup on her face as she walked gracefully.

Seeing Ye Shuhua basking in the sun, she smiled. It was cold in the early spring, but she waved a fan in her hand and said in a strange way: "I heard that my sister's evil spirit caused the princess to have a miscarriage? My sister is really worthy of being an evil star. This evil spirit is really extraordinary."
