Chapter 498 The meal is ready, I’m here to call you back to eat
In this world, there is no one who repays kindness with resentment!
At least Guan Huizhi didn't believe that the woman in front of her would seek any benefits for Shu Yue.
She got up from the ground, her face full of indifference and sternness, "Stop pretending! Do you think I will believe what you say?"
"You regard us mother and daughter as enemies, so why would you try to help Yue'er become the prince's consort?"
"Don't even mention whether this so-called 'Prince Li's Consort' is real. Even if it is true, do you think you can control the Ninth Prince's marriage?"
"What do you think you are?"
At this point, she showed a sinister smile on her face, "You found a few gangsters, controlled our Shu family, and arranged such a big show just to take revenge on us!"
She took a few steps towards Shu He with a firm tone, "Princess Li?"
"Haha!" She laughed sarcastically, as if she had discovered some loophole. "Where's the imperial edict?"
"Without an imperial decree, how dare you claim to be the Princess of Li? Do you really think I've never seen the world?!"
Even the marriage of a prince requires the emperor’s approval, let alone that of a prince?
"First, we haven't gotten married yet, and second, there's no imperial decree. Shu He...oh no, our Shu family doesn't recognize your identity!"
"You, a person of unknown origin, want to become Prince Li's consort?"
The cold face was filled with bitterness and contempt, "You, dream on!"
Zhang Zhirou was so angry that she wanted to kill Guan Huizhi with a knife. She had done so many evil things, yet she was so arrogant! She really gave her face!
"You stinky bitch, you're such a stubborn bitch! If I don't teach you a lesson today, I'll be letting down the abilities God has given me!"
Zhang Zhirou rolled up his sleeves and prepared to slap him, but was stopped by Shu He.
There was no emotion on her face because of what Guan Huizhi said.
She just thought it was a little ridiculous. "Guan Huizhi, are you still qualified to discuss identity, rights, truth or falsehood with me now?"
"Did you know that Shu Kelin was demoted?"
After hearing this, Guan Huizhi and Shu Yue's expressions changed drastically, their faces full of disbelief.
"You, what nonsense are you talking about?!" Shu Yue shouted angrily, unwilling to believe it at all.
"The very day you and your family fled, the imperial edict to depose you was issued. Otherwise, how do you think those servants of the Shu family dared to rob the Shu family of everything?"
Guan Huizhi's face lost all color and she couldn't help shaking.
Demoted? Wouldn't their family be ordinary people from now on?
"We didn't run away! Our family was clearly being held hostage! How could the Emperor issue such an imperial decree without investigating the matter thoroughly?"
Shu Yue was so furious that she wanted to call the emperor a fool!
Shu He glanced at her and warned her coldly, "If you still want to enter the Ninth Prince's Mansion, keep your mouth shut!"
Shu Yue subconsciously stopped talking and stared at Shu He.
The Shu He of today has completely lost the trace of her former self.
Can a person really change so completely?
"Guan Huizhi, now, you and Shu Yue have no other choice but to trust me!"
"As for whether I can influence the Ninth Prince's decision, that is none of your concern!"
"As for the imperial edict you mentioned and my identity, just wait and see! I'll show you everything you want to see!"
There was a hint of pleasure in her expression as she admired the changing emotions in Guan Huizhi's eyes.
At this time, there was a chaotic noise in front of the Shu family's door. Xuan Feng and other secret guards noticed someone coming, looked towards the front yard, and immediately knelt down.
"See you, my lord!"
When Zhang Zhirou saw the person coming, she also bowed to him.
Guan Huizhi and Shu Yue looked at the person who came, with indescribable expressions on their faces.
A pair of pupils, like an earthquake, were infinitely enlarged, and the heart felt like it was being hit hard by something.
It really is Prince Li, Baili Moqing!!
So, what she said is true?
Shu He turned slightly to the side and looked at the newcomer, a little puzzled, "Why are you here?"
Baili Moqing was dressed in a black and gold python robe. He had a noble and domineering temperament, and was so natural that it was so dazzling that people dared not look directly at him!
The cold jawline slowly opened, and the stiff facial lines softened when he saw Shu He.
He walked up to her, held her hand, and said softly, "Dinner is ready. I'm here to call you back to eat."
When he heard that she had returned to the Shu Mansion, he rushed over immediately.
It’s not that he was afraid that she would suffer a loss, or that she wouldn’t be able to deal with these people from the Shu family, but he was afraid that she would kill all of them in an impulse!
After all, the fun is yet to begin.
"Go home and eat first. Only when you're full and satisfied will you have the energy to deal with things tonight."
Shu He frowned slightly. What happened last night?
What else did he arrange?
Seeing her confusion, he had a mysterious look on his face and smiled faintly, "There's a surprise!"
Although she didn't know what he was doing, she could guess that it was related to the Shu family and her.
Since he had carefully prepared a surprise, she didn't want to spoil the fun, so she nodded and prepared to go with him.
As she raised her foot, she suddenly thought of Guan Huizhi and Shu Yue.
Her eyes flickered as she took Baili Moqing's arm and turned to look at the two of them, her eyes filled with a smile as bright as stars and pride.
"My dear sister, don't you know the person next to me?"
"No, you know him! Of course you know him! Didn't you help your sister get all the news about him in previous years?"
"And about the banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion back then, you were the one who personally sent me to him, so how could he not recognize me?"
Shu Yue opened her mouth, her entire expression was stiff, and her slightly upturned eyes looked like a fox's eyes.
However, those eyes that were once full of charm were now cold and stiff, like the eyes of a dead person without any life.
Shu He frowned in disdain. "Sister, how can you be so weak? This is your future brother-in-law! How can you be so frightened by just one look?"
"As they say, old ginger is still spicy! Look at your mother, she is very calm!"
Shu He's smiling eyes fell on Guan Huizhi's pale face, and he felt even happier.
"Madam Shu, you must also recognize the prince, right?"
"Prince Li is the Prince Li you mentioned who looks down on me."
"Now that he's here, why don't you ask him in person if he's really as you say, looking down on me and not wanting to marry me?"
Guan Huizhi stood there stupidly, as if someone had pressed her acupoints.
Seeing this, Shu He smiled and said, "Why, you don't dare to ask? Then I will ask for you?"
Regardless of Guan Huizhi's reaction, Shu He moved closer to Baili Moqing.
She raised her head, looked at the man who was a head taller than her, and asked in a sweet and sticky voice, "Your Highness, some people suspect that you are not willing to marry me!"
"How about you tell them how I forced you?"
Baili Moqing had never heard her voice so charming and soft before. It was like an electric current that struck his heart directly.
He put his arm around her waist, his eyes full of honey, and said cooperatively, "My beloved, don't listen to other people's nonsense. This prince wants to marry you because he loves you!"
Shu He smiled faintly, and glanced at Guan Huizhi with a smug and arrogant look, looking just like a smug villain, the villain Black Lotus.
"Mrs. Shu, are you satisfied with this answer?"
Guan Huizhi felt bitter in her heart, even more bitter than if she had eaten ten thousand coptis chinensis.
It turns out that everything is true!
How could this be?
Why did the same method, the same experience, have completely different effects on the Seventh and Ninth Princes?!
Why didn't her Yue'er receive such favor from the Ninth Prince!
