Chapter 221 Killing with a Borrowed Knife

The thing happened very suddenly, but Gu Lixuan's uncle immediately came to his senses and looked at Situ Shang with squinted eyes: "Master Situ, are you blatantly robbing our family Li Xuan? I have heard that Master Situ has confidantes all over the world.

How can Mr. Mu feel comfortable marrying the third lady to Mr. Situ?"

Situ Shang half-smiled, and there was no trace of emotion on his soft and handsome face. He just replied calmly: "I just have the same vision as Gu Lixuan, how can I talk about it? Besides, Jin and I

We have known Jin Han since we were young, and Gu Lixuan has only known Jin Han for how long. If we want to say first come, first served, then it should be me first, right?"

This is the truth. The Mu family and the Situ family have always had business relationships. Situ Shang often followed his father to play in Mu Mansion when he was young. Liuyun was unruly, Lan Xi was gentle, elegant and clever, only Jin Han was the most introverted and shy, and Situ was the most shy.

Shang liked teasing Jin Han the most, but when he grew up, Situ Shang began to learn business and traveled around. He did not stay in Linyang City for several years. When he came back, the ladies in the Mu Mansion all grew up.

I really can't recognize him.

"Don't you have a fiancée in Mr. Situ's house? Now he's coming to Mu's house to propose marriage. So is he going to make Miss Jinhan his concubine?" I have to say that Peng Hui is really quick-thinking. No wonder Gu Lixuan would

Asking him to be the lobbyist, if Situ Shang hadn't suddenly appeared, it would have been possible to coax the Mu family into marrying Jin Han to the Gu family.

"Fiancée? What fiancée? Why don't I know?" Situ Shang blinked blankly, his evil phoenix eyes slightly raised, and he curled his lips and smiled: "Oh, I know, that woman from the capital, that is my cousin's sweetheart.

, it has nothing to do with me, so don’t wrongly accuse a good person."

How would outsiders know that Situ Shang had gone to great lengths to get his fiancée from the capital, setting up a plan for his cousin to fall in love with her, and then encouraging him to chase her. All these tricks were attributed to Situ Shang, the master. Fortunately, in the end, his cousin hugged the beauty.

Returned, and the wanderer was free again.

At this point in the play, Liu Yun was already watching the play with his head propped up. Since Situ Shang came in person, Gu Lixuan probably had no hope at all. Not to mention that Jin Han had given up on Gu Lixuan a long time ago.

He hasn't given up yet. If Situ Shang puts all his efforts into marrying Jin Han, he won't be able to resist it even with her gentle nature.

Besides, Liu Yun noticed that although Jin Han kept his head down, his ears were slightly red, and her hand was always held by Situ Shang. She raised her eyebrows slightly, although this Situ Shang was usually uninhibited.

, it seems very reliable at the moment, but I don’t know if he is acting in such an impassioned manner or if he is serious.

Liu Yun always felt that giving up the entire forest for a mimosa like Jin Han was a very unreliable thing for Situ Shang. However, there are exceptions to everything, and everyone has a nemesis, right?

"You..." Peng Hui was speechless for a moment. He never thought that Situ Shang would come to cause trouble at this time, so he waved his hand and walked away.

"Situ, Uncle Mu needs to think about this matter again." Mu Qingyang pursed her lips. He had watched Situ Shang grow up, and he knew this boy's temperament very well. Although Mu Mansion and

We have a good relationship with Situ Mansion, but the matter of letting Jin Han marry Situ Shang must be considered in the long run.

"Uncle Mu, I understand your concerns." After Situ Shang finished speaking, he glanced at Jin Han, whispered something, and then left.

When Mrs. Xia saw Jin Han's pale face, she immediately got up and took her daughter back. No one knew how the hands in her sleeves were shaking. She had always been sensitive. Just now, Mrs. Yu and Gu Lixuan's uncle looked at each other several times.

This strange look reflected in her heart, making her feel uneasy. Now she just wanted to take her daughter away as soon as possible without appearing in front of everyone.

Liu Yun also left with her, but before she left, she noticed that when Yu's eyes fell on Xia's back, there was a flash of resentment and cold eyes like knives, which made Liu Yun seem to have grasped something important.

But it seemed like there was nothing left when I opened my hand.

At this time, the front hall was bustling. Mu Siya, the fourth daughter of the Mu family, was wandering at the door of her yard, looking anxious and uneasy. She didn't know what she was worried about. After a while, a delicate maid ran back from a distance. She

After seeing that person, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly greeted him.

"How's it going? Has my father agreed to the Gu family's marriage?" Siya grabbed the maid's hand excitedly, her eyes shining brightly.

This maid was Siya's personal maid, named Huan'er. She had gone to the front hall to eavesdrop on the fourth lady's order, and finally came back to tell the lady what was going on in the front hall.

"I didn't agree. Mr. Situ came back with the third lady. He said that the third lady was kidnapped. She jumped from the carriage and was injured. She was rescued by Situ's company and brought back. He also said that he wanted to marry the third lady." Huan'er.

She used the simplest words to describe what happened in the front hall, and Siya's face became uglier every time she said a word.

"It didn't work out? I've been planning for so long and it failed like this?" Siya took a few steps back and sat on the stone bench in the corridor in a daze, with a look of reluctance on her face, "Why is God so unfair?

She protects her mother in everything, and the eldest sister also protects her, and now even Situ Shang shows up, it's really unfair."

Huan'er supported Siya and comforted her softly: "Miss, don't be discouraged. If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time. Besides, didn't the eldest lady say that even if the Nan family wants to marry our Mu family, it may not be the third lady."

"What do you know? Nanfu has a close relationship with the Xia family in the capital. Nanze has liked Lan Xi since he was a child. Now that Lan Xi can't marry him, their first choice in Nanfu must be Aunt Xia's daughter Jinhan."

At this point, Siya's eyes lit up with blazing anger, "I will never let Nanze out."

"So, as soon as Mr. Gu came to the young lady for help, the young lady immediately agreed? He deceived the third young lady, spread rumors, and ruined the third young lady's reputation... But if the master knew about this..." Huan'er faced

His face was expressionless, as if he was worried.

"Then I can't care so much. Only if Jin Han marries someone can I marry Nanze." Siya gritted her teeth and vowed.

"Then... the matter of kidnapping the third lady..." Huan'er hesitated to speak.

"I didn't do it, but I guess it must have something to do with Gu Lixuan. That man is very sophisticated and used to playing tricks..." Siya didn't think it was a good thing for Jin Han to marry Gu Lixuan, but in comparison

Naturally, it was more important for her to marry Nanze, so she felt confident to join forces with Gu Lixuan in the design, but she didn't expect that she would fall short at the last moment. She tilted her head and thought for a moment and smiled, "But it doesn't matter.

, now that Situ Shang has appeared, for me, the goal has been achieved."

Siya clenched her fists, and a smile appeared on her face. All she could think about was Nanze's figure. Now she was the only daughter left in Mu Mansion. If Nan Ze wanted to get married, it would be her, right?

Huan'er standing by had a glint in her eyes and sighed secretly in her heart. She was really a little girl blinded by love. Unfortunately, she was just a chess piece in the hands of the eldest lady. She wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife and get rid of Jin Han to bring down Xia.

Sir, it's a pity that this plan of killing two birds with one stone didn't succeed. It's really a pity.

[Author's digression]: Usually, dogs that don't bark are the most ferocious... I'm talking about people like Yu Shiyao...
