Chapter 510.2: handsome man trap

Su Xi-er is indeed a vicious woman! She used her words to wound me, and even acted intimate with Pei Qianhao as a display!

Thats right, I am Pei Yaran, the Empress Dowager who was tricked by Pei Qianhao and oppressed by Su Xi-er! I had hidden myself in a small village at the foot of the mountain.

It was only because I pretended to be a foolish woman that I was able to enter the Prince Hao Residence today. Since Ive decided to do such a thing, I refuse to fall for any of Su Xi-ers crafty schemes!

Pei Yaran tightly clenched her fists, her teeth biting her lips.

The Imperial Notice Board stated that the Empress Dowager admitted her mistakes, and requested for an edict to guard the Imperial Mausoleum for life. For life?! So this is how you treat me when Im gone! Pei Qianhao, I hate you to the core! Youre no longer my elder brother! Youve even told Su Xi-er about your pet name, something that youve never even told me!

However, I didnt expect that not long after I left, Xie Yuns power would actually be taken away. Only an empty sh.e.l.l remains of the Xie Family; they have riches, but no power or status! In addition, Pei Qianhao has completely broken free of the Pei Family; he has established his own faction, and doesnt care about the Pei Familys fate at all!

The Pei Family raised him, but to think that he would repay them like this! Why is such a person still remaining in this world? Su Xi-er must also die!

Pei Yaran was furious enough to peel Su Xi-ers skin away while she was still alive, but she reminded herself to endure time and again.

Enduring is the only way!

Suddenly, Ruo Yuan entered the backyard and called her. Niu Niu, this broom is for you. The Princess Consort instructed you to sweep the courtyard.

Contempt flickered across Pei Yarans eyes.

A fat la.s.s from the Palace Side Quarters is ordering me around. Ill endure this, and Ill pay it all back in the future!

Niu Niu, quickly come and sweep. Receiving no response from her, Ruo Yuan tried to stuff the broom into her hand.

Just now, the Princess Consort had instructed me to try and make things difficult for Niu Niu while having her do work. The Princess Consort must have confirmed that Niu Niu is the Empress Dowager. She is naturally arrogant, and if we keep putting her in situations where she doesnt know how to respond, her true personality will be forced out so that we can expose her.

Pei Yaran raised her head with hazy eyes, pretending that she didnt understand. Sweep the floor?

Thats right, sweep the whole backyard. If you dont sweep it clean, you wont be allowed to eat. Youll be starved to death!

Pei Yaran appeared to be lost on the surface, but she was inwardly sneering.

Fat la.s.s, youll be the first person I kill!

Sweep! Ruo Yuan couldnt bear her slow response.

Since the Princess Consort has determined that shes the Empress Dowager, then she has to be. I still remember how she tried to kill Su Xi-er with all kinds of methods.

Pei Yaran quickly found a broom stuffed into her hand. Watching Ruo Yuans departing figure, she found it ridiculous.

I killed so many imperial consorts after entering the imperial palace, but I would have never expected that I would be bossed around and humiliated by a maidservant from the Palace Side Quarters.

It seems like a sacrifice must be made if I want some things to succeed. On this path, the Eldest Imperial Prince has failed; Daddy has failed; Xie Yun has failed. I must endure this humiliation for the greater good. Its just sweeping the ground.

Hence, Pei Yaran walked to one side of the backyard and began sweeping with a foolish expression.

Ruo Yuan secretly observed her for a while before leaving to prepare the red bean soup.

Meanwhile, some guards were already at the main entrance with a horse carriage in tow, waiting for Pei Qianhao and Su Xi-er to arrive.

Before Pei Qianhao and Su Xi-er could walk out, a little child pounced towards them. Fairy Elder Sister, Im bored to death; take me out of the residence to play! Liu Yinyin tugged at Su Xi-ers dress.

Pei Qianhaos eyes darkened.

The wind is so strong outside, yet this little la.s.s is pulling at Xi-ers dress. Doesnt she know that she could accidentally expose Xi-ers legs?!
