"What do you mean?" Zi Yan stopped immediately when she heard the word death.
"If your elder brother finds out that you killed Dongfang Zihan, what will your elder brother think of you? He will think that you are a vicious person. Even if he helps you, he will be alienated from you in the future. Now this matter has become more and more serious.
The fewer people who know about it, the better. Just pretend that nothing happened."
When Zi Yan heard this, she felt it made sense, but said, "Humph, what should Daddy do?"
A flash of sneer flashed in Ziying's eyes: "Dad? In the past few years, has dad gone to Xiyuan to see that little bitch? Have you ever asked about that little bitch? Now dad is busy with his birthday tomorrow, how can he have time to care about it?
That little bitch, Third Sister, you are too worried. Maybe Third Sister, you are too scared and are in trouble. Even if the little bitch is really dead, what does it have to do with us? Did someone see us kill her?
"
Zi Yan calmed down after thinking about it. Yes, why didn't she think of it? She was the one who got into trouble.
"Third Sister, I won't give it away if I have nothing else to do." Ziying said disdainfully.
"Hmph!" Zi Yan gave Zi Ying a sinister look, snorted coldly and waved her sleeves away. She was unwilling to give in. Although the fourth sister didn't do anything with her illusions, she had a smarter mind and was calmer than her.
If someone is braver and more resourceful than her, she will definitely not let Dongfang Ziying go!
…
Early the next morning, the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion got busy, preparing a big banquet. All the civil and military officials from the court were about to arrive tonight.
The eldest lady Qin is dressed elegantly and luxuriously. She is thirty-seven years old, but she is extremely well-maintained, like a young woman in her twenties.
The side chambers, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Li, were also dressed in fine clothes. Mrs. Yao had a son and a daughter, and was very grand.
The Li family only had one daughter, Dongfang Ziling, who was eight years old, so she could only follow behind with a low eyebrow.
In the afternoon, the door was crowded with guests, many dignitaries had arrived, and Dongfang Lie was talking with several ministers.
At this time, the arrival of Nangong Chen, the most favored son of Jinli Kingdom, undoubtedly caused quite a stir. It is not an exaggeration to say that the young talents fawned over him, the officials’ ladies looked at him with admiration, and the stars cheered.
"Ying'er, go and see His Highness the Third Prince quickly." Yao whispered in Ziying's ear.
Ying'er is only eleven years old and already plays the piano very well. If she has the opportunity to attract the attention of His Highness, the Qin family's daughter must not be allowed to take advantage of her.
Zi Ying only has respect, admiration and courtesy in her eyes. Unlike Zi Yan's passionate admiration, she also likes the Third Highness.
But she knew clearly that she could not climb up to the Third Highness. Her mother was just a concubine, and she was a concubine. Her status was far different from that of her legitimate daughter Zi Yan. The most annoying thing was that she had not even cultivated the first level.
.
"Ying'er has met His Highness the Third Highness." Zi Ying smiled and saluted like a girl next door, her almond-shaped eyes flickering, she looked like an eleven-year-old child now.
"Fourth Miss Dongfang doesn't need to be polite." Nangong Chen said politely. He didn't have much opinion about Dongfang Ziying, who didn't show her face often and wasn't flattering. He couldn't say he liked or disliked her.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Third Highness." Ziying smiled slightly and acted like a model for everyone. Then she returned to Yao family and chatted and laughed with the others.
Yao said in a low voice with some reproach: "Ying'er, why don't you say more to His Highness the Third Prince?"
Ziying still smiled and whispered: "Mother, this distance is the best. If I stick to you like an ordinary woman, it will only be counterproductive."
