"I... just wanted to save my family. Anu threatened me with my family and asked me to hurt you and the young master, but I really didn't do anything."
"That Mi Xiang just wants the princess and the young master to sleep a little longer so that I can go out and see her. I really..."
"Isn't it because I am proficient in medicine that you dare not do anything casually?" Su Nianyun stared at her.
Xia Yue shook her head hastily, "Princess, that's really not the case. I really... don't want to hurt you and the young master!"
She has taken care of the princess for so long and the princess treats her like a sister. How could she really hurt the princess?
Everything was just a presumption between her and Anu.
"You did nothing last night, and that's enough!" Su Nianyun became angrier as she spoke.
But even though she was angry, she could still sense that Xia Yue had many words that she had not said.
"You tell me everything and I'll give you a chance to quibble!"
Xia Yue's eyes flickered, but in the end she lowered her head silently, "Everything is my slave's fault."
"Xia Yue," Su Ming said, "Ayun has always been nice to you. The only girls around her are you and Chunhua. Why are you and her so different?"
"Chunhua dared to sacrifice himself for A-yun to protect him from danger, but you betrayed A-yun? We are both close girls, so why is there such a big gap between you two?"
"Haha, haha..."
Hearing Su Ming compare herself with Chunhua, Xia Yue said, "Yes, I am not as smart as Chunhua, nor as courageous as her."
"She was able to resist Butler Qin's insults, but I didn't escape..."
What?
Su Nianyun was stunned for a moment, with lightning flashing in her mind.
"Steward Qin...what's wrong with you?"
"The day after the princess listened to the old lady and rushed us to the kitchen, Butler Qin gave me..."
After giving it, Xia Yue never said it again.
This was supposed to remain a secret forever, but she couldn't help but tell it after all.
For a long time, outsiders only saw her happiness and straightforwardness, but could not see the suppressed pain underneath her happiness.
"How could it be, didn't you say that he didn't..."
Su Nianyun pursed her lips.
When she brought them back from the kitchen, she asked them if Butler Qin had done anything to them.
She remembered that both of them shook their heads.
"If something like that happened, what's the point of saying it?"
"Moreover, Butler Qin didn't see clearly in the darkness. He thought it was Chunhua who took advantage..."
Butler Qin had his hands on many girls in the Chen Mansion, but apart from his sincere love for Bai He, he abandoned all the other girls as soon as he got them.
That night, he thought he had usurped "Chunhua", and then lost interest in Chunhua. The next day, he continued to flirt with Xia Yue, which made Xia Yue miserable.
Even though she knew that she had blocked the disaster for Chunhua, and that Chunhua knew nothing about it, she still gritted her teeth and did not say anything.
She thought she would be raped again after being entangled by Butler Qin.
Unexpectedly, at this juncture, she and Chunhua were taken back to Tingfeng Courtyard by the princess.
"So princess, I have a grudge against you in my heart."
Xia Yue said, "But I won't hate you, you are the master after all..."
"I... don't know..." Su Nianyun suddenly became dejected.
Looking at Xia Yue like this, Su Nianyun suddenly didn't know what to say.
She didn't know that Xia Yue had suffered from this.
After all, she was a step too late.
"This slave is thinking that she may not be able to marry into a good family in the future, so she might as well save more money and go back to her hometown to be with her parents."
"But by chance, they were caught by Anu..." Xia Yue cried bitterly.
"Stand up and follow me!" Su Nianyun fiercely pulled Xia Yue to stand up.
Su Ming accompanied them to an inconspicuous home.
Xia Yue looked inside and saw that the people sitting inside drinking tea were her parents.
"Princess, shouldn't they have been captured by Anu's people?"
"Don't even think about it. Your parents live in Moshan. No matter how talented Anu is, she is just a maid next to Xiaohou."
Su Ming said, "What ability does she have to send people all the way to kidnap your parents, just to blackmail you and make up false news..."
"What...what?" Xia Yue was stunned.
"When Ayun noticed that you were giving her the incense, she asked me to arrange for someone to go to your hometown to find your parents to see if you had anything in the hands of others!"
"But..." Xia Yue said, "You have a lot of people under your command. Everyone is here. Who went to Mo Mountain?"
"Do you think I only have a few Su family members in the caravan?"
Su Ming said, "This is Mobei, the place where the Su family was born and raised. Do you think I will have no manpower to dispatch here?"
After Xia Yue was surprised, she felt guilty.
"Princess, this slave did everything wrong and was narrow-minded. Please give me a chance to correct myself..."
"I forgive you." Su Nianyun said calmly.
"Princess," Xia Yue wiped the tears from her face and swore, "I will definitely serve you well."
"No need, the reason why I brought your parents over is just to let you see the facts clearly..."
"My original plan was to let you meet your parents who are still alive and then send you on your way."
After Xia Yue was shocked, she became aware again.
Death was the price for her betrayal of her master.
"But..." Su Nianyun said, "I have changed my mind. You can take your parents and leave!"
"Princess?" Xia Yue looked at Su Nianyun in surprise.
"I failed to protect you when you were my dowry. Now we, master and servant, can't go back to the past. You might as well take your family and fly away."
"Find a place where no one knows you and start over as a family."
"Princess, slave..."
Su Nianyun didn't listen to what Xia Yue said anymore, but she never knew anyone again.
Xia Yue watched the princess get on the carriage without looking back, and then watched the carriage drive away. She didn't know how she felt.
At this time, Xia Yue's parents in the room heard the noise and came out.
"Xia Yue..." The old mother came forward and hugged Xia Yue, "You have made me miss you so much!"
Xia Yue shed tears of pain, sadness and regret when she looked at her parents who were safe and sound and didn't even know what had happened.
The princess treated her so well, how could she take action against the princess just by listening to a few words from outsiders?
Xia Yue slapped herself hard.
Xia Yue, you are not human!
But it's useless to regret anymore, the princess has already said goodbye to her
She knew the princess's temper. The princess always told her the truth, especially when she tried to hurt the princess.
…
"Ayun, are you just going to let Xia Yue go?" Su Ming said, "She is someone who has betrayed her!"
"Forget it," Su Nianyun shook her head, "It's not easy to be a well-behaved woman in Dongling Kingdom. Not everyone is like our Mobei Su family..."
Su Ming was stunned. Since he entered the capital, he has felt deeply.
Women there are more restrained.
What about obeying your father before you get married, obeying your husband after getting married, and obeying your son after your husband's death...
It's really stupid. In their Su family, everyone is free, men and women are the same.
"Ayun, it's a good thing that you and that Chen Shao'an have reconciled, otherwise you will be even more miserable in the future if you are disciplined by such a dogma."
Su Nianyun laughed to himself.
In the past, wasn't she one of the assimilated members?
A poor woman who only had her husband and her husband's family in her eyes. In the end, she was deceived and died alone!
Thinking of his previous life, Su Nianyun hated Xia Yue even more!
At this time, the carriage had returned to the General's Mansion. Before Su Nianyun could hold Su Ming's hand and get out of the car, another big hand with sharp bones stretched out first.
