Chapter 264
"Miss Shen, you have always been pure as ice and jade in our hearts, kind and harmless. But now, by doing this, aren't you letting us all down?"
"A woman's chastity has been completely ruined by you!"
Shen Ruxu looked at Gu Ying with lifeless eyes, and suddenly thought of something. Her eyes lit up fiercely as she said, "You... you plotted against me?"
"I plotted against you?" Gu Ying sneered coldly, "What Miss Shen said is preposterous. It was clearly you who schemed to harm my maid Yin Lan, and now you are trying to reverse right and wrong?"
Shen Ruxu was completely at a loss about how to refute, her eyes filled with bewilderment, not knowing who to ask for help.
Gu Ying sank her lips and said, "Come on! Tie her up and wait for the prince to come back to punish her!" Shen Ruxu's body shuddered, as if falling into an abyss. Her hands and feet turned cold, without strength.
After Shen Ruxu was tied up, Gu Ying sent the disaster victims away.
Before leaving, they all expressed that they had misjudged Shen Ruxu and consoled Gu Ying for her loss.
After sending the people away, she hurriedly asked someone to find Huaian back.
"Madam, Master Huai seems to have gone towards the cliff to the east."
Gu Ying laughed bitterly, "Oh my... hurry up and stop him, don't let him do anything foolish!"
"Yes!"
...... After sending someone to look for Huai An, Gu Ying found an old woman to dress Shen Ruxu properly. Then she locked her in her own tent.
At dusk, she bent over and entered the tent. Seeing Shen Ruxu sitting on the chair with anger and jealousy on her face, her black hair was messy, and there were bite marks on her face and neck.
Although Shen Ruxu had more thoughts than other young ladies, she was quite beautiful. Rarely had such an embarrassed moment, but at this time, she was like a defeated chicken, drooping her head, sitting there lifeless, and seemed to have cried before, with red eyes.
Gu Ying smiled slightly, "What's wrong, aren't you wondering why what you did was exposed so quickly?"
Shen Ruxu returned to her senses, raised her head covered in tear stains, and angrily scolded, "Gu Ying, you cheap slut! How could you ruin my innocence! I am a clean and innocent woman. In order not to let the prince take me, you did such a nasty and disgusting thing to me! How can you be so vicious! Gu Ying!"
Good reversal of right and wrong, eloquent tongue.
If it were before, Gu Ying would never like anyone calling her vicious.
But now, listening to Shen Ruxu scolding her like this, she didn't get angry at all. Sitting in the chair opposite her, she smiled cheerfully, "Miss Shen saves the dying and helps the poor, and has always boasted of being gentle and kind. Why are you so angry and impatient now, spewing vicious words?"
Shen Ruxu was stuck for a moment, "I don't understand what you're talking about..."
Gu Ying glanced at her indifferently, with a faint smile at the corners of her eyes, but the smile did not reach her eyes, "You don't understand, I can tell you and let you die with understanding."
Shen Ruxu sensed something was off as she looked at Gu Ying and Liu Chang behind her dumbfoundedly.
Gu Ying continued unhurriedly, "At first, I didn't want to deal with you. As long as you behaved yourself and didn't provoke the prince, I would turn a blind eye and allow you to continue staying in the camp. After returning to Yueyang City, the prince and I will have nothing more to do with you. By then, you and I will be like strangers."
Shen Ruxu's eyebrows wrinkled slightly as she stared firmly at Gu Ying’s too beautiful little face, heart wrenched like a knife.
Gu Ying didn't mind her hatred. Things had developed to this point, there was no possibility for her and Shen Ruxu to become friends.
Now that she was pregnant, her child had not safely landed yet, she had to be extremely vigilant to deal with dangers that might come at any time.
Since Shen Ruxu was so vicious in plotting against her and Yin Lan.
Then she would have to be a hundred times more vicious than Shen Ruxu in order to protect herself and those around her.
So she raised a bright smile and continued to Shen Ruxu, “This matter was a trap set by me and Yin Lan from the beginning. I saw your resentment towards us many times, so I knew that with your means, you might design us someday. So we chose to take preemptive action. I deliberately let Yin Lan provoke you many times, arousing your anger and jealousy, after which you would find a way to get rid of Yin Lan." "And for a weak woman like you, the best way is to ask for help to get rid of Yin Lan."
Facing Shen Ruxu’s flustered unease on her face, Gu Ying smiled brightly, "Yin Lan had seen you flirting with Liu Chang before, talking privately, planning something unknown. So I thought, since it was like this, why not take the initiative to send Yin Lan to you."
When Shen Ruxu thought of that day when Yin Lan had deliberately come to provoke her, her small face instantly turned pale with anger, "What exactly did you do?"
Gu Ying said slowly, "I knew what Liu Chang wanted, so I gave Yin Lan an ingot of gold in advance. When Liu Chang caught Yin Lan, Yin Lan used the gold to buy off Liu Chang and asked him to cooperate with us in this play."
Shen Ruxu was incredulous, "Wha...what?"
Liu Chang grinned and said in a timely manner, "Miss Shen, you didn't really think I would kill someone for you and then take on a murder charge, did you? Since the lady gave me gold and let me come back to get you, allowing me your body, it was hitting two birds with one stone. Why wouldn't I do it?"
Shen Ruxu's body softened instantly, and her eyes scattered instantly.
She looked at Gu Ying and Liu Chang in panic, "You two harmed me together... so Yin Lan..."
Liu Chang said with a sneer, "She's fine, just hiding."
When he found Shen Ruxu, in order to get her body, he had falsely agreed, and later when Yin Lan came to buy him with money, he immediately sold her out completely.
He was not stupid either, he would not really become a murderer for an unsettled woman, it was not worth it.
Shen Ruxu's eyes instantly turned red, her pupils contracting sharply, "Liu Chang, how could you do this to me! I saved you and your mother too!"
"Didn't I make you happy tonight to repay you? What, still not enough?"
"Get lost!" Shen Ruxu was ashamed and angry. She hated that she could not vent her anger by killing Liu Chang!
"Get lost if getting lost, your body is nothing special anyway." Liu Chang sneered.
Now that he had obtained Shen Ruxu's body today, he also lost interest in her. He bowed and scraped to Gu Ying, waved his hand and walked out of the tent.
Shen Ruxu cried bitterly, staring at Gu Ying fiercely with tearful eyes full of hatred. "Gu Ying, you will regret what you did to me sooner or later!"
"Miss Shen, don't forget, you were the wicked one. If you didn't want to ruin my Yin Lan, I wouldn't have taken the opportunity to let Liu Chang ruin your innocence. Blame, just blame you for being too vicious."
Shen Ruxu stared, and tears instantly burst from her eyes. She roared hysterically, "Gu Ying, just you wait! Does the prince know that you are a snake and scorpion? If the prince knows that you harmed me, he will definitely not let you go!"
