With a "clang", the door of the woodshed was slammed shut, a thick cloud of dust rose up, the last trace of light disappeared, and Su Yueming was drowned in darkness.
She sat on the pile of firewood, with firewood branches touching her delicate skin, and huge rats and cockroaches crawled under her feet without restraint, but she was not afraid. She closed her eyes and waited quietly.
The servants guarding the door took a look inside through the crack in the door, and were immediately shocked by Su Yueming's calmness. They couldn't help but shudder.
There are so many rats and cockroaches in such a woodshed that even they would be afraid, but this young Miss No. 3 has no fear or even a hint of panic. Where did she get the courage?
Darkness will give her more power.
Because she had lost so much in the darkness.

The eldest lady and Su Baixi returned to Qifu Garden. Both of them felt that they had let out a bad breath, and couldn't help but feel good and beaming. The eldest lady also drank two cups of tea soup in succession.
"Mother, what is the content of Su Yueming's embroidered words? Why did the prince react so strongly?" Although she was happy that her father was furious and Su Yueming was imprisoned in the woodshed to suffer, Su Baixi didn't know what the eldest lady had done.
The eldest lady's indifferent eyes revealed a hint of sinisterness, and she snorted coldly and said, "If she wants to embroider 'Guotai and People's Peace', I will embroider 'People are in dire straits' and give it to her."
Su Baixi's beautiful red phoenix eyes rolled, with a look of joy on her face, and she asked, "So, what the prince saw just now was actually the words 'people are in dire straits'?"
The eldest lady smiled coldly, "Yes, I asked Hongmei to make the switch without anyone noticing. Su Yueming probably still couldn't figure out what went wrong. Recently, there were floods in the two rivers, and a large number of hungry people poured into the capital. Su Yueming
At this time, don’t sending these four words to the Crown Prince to express dissatisfaction with the imperial court and the emperor?”
Su Baixi looked at her mother with admiration, "Mother, your move is so powerful. If it is true, Su Yueming will definitely be killed this time. But what if the emperor and the prince want to blame the Su family? Mother is not afraid of us.
Are you implicated?"
"Haha..." The eldest lady smiled so proudly, and said coldly from the corner of her eyes, "We don't need to worry about this. Concubine Zhen and your father will be anxious to save the Su family, and will blame all the faults on others if necessary.
Go to Su Yueming and let her bear the blame alone."
What the lady said is indeed true.
Su Buqing has always done whatever it takes to secure the reputation of the Su family and his own official career. He can sacrifice his own brothers, let alone a concubine who has no value at all.
"By the way." The eldest lady seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, "What's wrong with your parrot bird? Isn't it well trained? Why did you shout those two words? I was really scared today.
I'm sorry, the prince is almost angry."
The eldest lady was still frightened when she thought of the situation at that time. She couldn't help but pat her chest.
Su Baixi was also puzzled, "I don't understand either. There is absolutely no way I can teach it to shout such words. To be honest, thanks to Su Yueming's Fenjun words, she almost stole the limelight."
Speaking of Su Yueming's rescue for her, she didn't even feel the slightest bit of gratitude in her heart. She was still brooding over the fact that she was robbed of the limelight.
She is really far from the image of the generous and benevolent daughter-in-law of the Prime Minister.
The eldest lady looked thoughtful, and began to think about various things: "This parrot was attacked by a wild cat inexplicably, and then disappeared for a long time. Finally, it was found in Er Yatou's fragrance garden. Er Yatou..." The eldest lady was stunned.
.
"Su Yueming!" Su Baixi suddenly realized, "Mother, second sister and Su Yueming's yard are connected together. She must have stolen my bird, then taught it to call it Hunjun, and then pretended to help me out in front of my father and the prince.
