Chapter 156 The show begins
Su Yinyin looked at the letter in her hand, and tears streamed down her face involuntarily.
Upon seeing this, the old man said, "Miss, what has made you so sad? Tell me, and I will avenge you!"
Su Yinyin picked up the handkerchief on the table, wiped away her tears, and shook her head with a smile. "I'll take revenge myself. I just didn't expect people could be so wicked. Let's go, we'll meet Princess Yong'an later."
Su Yinyin turned to leave the study, but the old man behind her saw this and hurriedly followed her out with his cloak.
Stepping out of the villa, Su Yinyin stood before a vast expanse of snow. She felt a deep sadness and longed to cry.
She tried hard to suppress her emotions. She recalled every moment she shared with her wet nurse. What does it feel like to be betrayed by someone you trust? Is it the feeling of heartbreak?
Su Yinyin couldn't tell whether it was her own emotion or the original owner's emotion.
Su Yinyin took a deep breath. Lao Yi stood behind her. Although he couldn't see her expression, he could feel her sadness.
He longed to go up to her and hold her close, to let her lean on him, and to tell her that he could share her pain and her hardships. He wanted her to always be able to see him, no matter where she looked back.
The old man draped a shawl over Su Yinyin's shoulders, saying, "It's cold!"
Su Yinyin turned to look at Lao Yi and said with a wry smile, "Jin, it's so good to have you!"
"Okay, let's go." The old man led Su Yinyin into the carriage and headed towards the Yong'an Prince's Mansion.
Throughout the journey, she clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with resentment.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the Prince Yong'an's residence, after announcing her arrival, she headed straight for the inner courtyard.
Princess Yong'an was lounging on the couch when she saw Su Yinyin enter, a smile playing on her lips. "Oh dear, Princess, you're quite slow. I thought you weren't coming?"
After bowing, Su Yinyin took out the letter and placed it on the table. "Your Highness, did you write this?"
Princess Yong'an glanced at it and said indifferently, "Yes, what does the princess want?"
Su Yinyin bit her lower lip and said, word by word, "This princess will make them wish they were dead."
Princess Yong'an snorted coldly, stood up, and approached Su Yinyin, "I want Su Yinhan dead! Not someone who suffers a fate worse than death!"
"It seems that the Princess Consort and Su Yinhan have a deep-seated grudge? Is the Princess Consort afraid that she will be like a wildfire that cannot be extinguished and will spring up again with the spring breeze?"
"So what if it is?" the princess said bluntly, without hiding anything.
"The Princess Consort has summoned me here. Speak! What are your requests?"
"I need the princess to help me purchase a pregnancy-stabilizing medicine from the divine physician to ensure my safe delivery. And also to deal with Su Yinhan. Will I cooperate?"
"I agree to the Princess's requests, but Su Yinhan cannot die tomorrow."
"Why? Keeping her in the mansion is like having a ticking time bomb!" the princess said angrily.
Su Yinyin raised an eyebrow. "Does Your Highness know that with my current abilities, killing Su Yinhan would be as easy as turning my hand?"
The reason I, the princess, have hesitated to act is that I want to find out who is behind her. If the princess were to act rashly, she might get herself into trouble.
Princess Yong'an's expression changed slightly, but she still stubbornly said, "Hmph, why would I be afraid of her?"
Su Yinyin paced back and forth slowly, saying, "But I have a plan that can make the Princess Consort's wish come true, and make Su Yinhan roll back to the Marquis of Yongyi's residence."
Princess Yong'an's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "What plan?"
Su Yinyin whispered a few words into Princess Yong'an's ear. Princess Yong'an was taken aback at first, then a sinister smile appeared on her face. "This plan is brilliant."
"Someone, give that bag to the princess." The maid who had just delivered the message to Su Yinyin took out a bag and handed it to Su Yinyin.
“This is the evidence, given to me by your wicked wet nurse. She begged me to save her grandson and granddaughter, both of whom are in Su Yinhan’s hands. This princess does not have the ability to find those two people, especially with such a tight schedule.”
“I, the princess, will handle this matter. You are pregnant now, so please take good care of yourself. I will handle this laborious task. Your Highness only needs to cooperate.”
Seeing the weariness on Princess Yong'an's face, Su Yinyin turned to leave.
Princess Yong'an said, "Su Yinyin, I've found you to be a very good person. I just don't understand why you were so blind and heartless before."
As Su Yinyin walked, she didn't forget to reply: "Aren't you also blind in heart and eyes, marrying the incompetent, arrogant, and selfish Prince Yong'an?"
"You, you, you, what a Su Yinyin!" Princess Yong'an exclaimed angrily from behind. She hadn't expected her to be so eloquent.
After Su Yinyin left the Yong'an Prince's Mansion, the old man looked at her worriedly, "Miss, do you really want to do this?"
Su Yinyin's gaze was firm. "That was the original plan, but now it's just that we can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"It's not easy to get some sleep! Jin, come with me one more time, I don't want to ride in the carriage anymore."
Su Yinyin herself didn't realize that she was now speaking to Lao Yi in a slightly coquettish manner.
"Alright, then I've overstepped my bounds." The old man, with Su Yinyin in his arms, used his lightness skill and arrived at the Marquis of Yongyi's residence in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The Prince of Yong'an's Mansion and the Marquis of Yongyi's Mansion are on the same street.
The night wind was cold, so Su Yinyin adjusted her cloak to prevent the wind from penetrating her skin.
Su Yinyin entered her aunt's room alone and adjusted the brightness of the lamp. The room became brighter.
Auntie usually sleeps lightly, so Su Yinyin didn't bother to hide her movements.
The aunt woke up with a start from the noise, and when she saw it was Su Yinyin, her eyes widened in surprise. "How did you get in?"
Su Yinyin sneered, "It seems that Auntie has done too many bad things, and now she sleeps so lightly, afraid that someone will come in and harm you?"
The concubine's face turned deathly pale instantly. "Young Miss, please don't falsely accuse me!"
Su Yinyin sat down in a chair and said leisurely, "Back when I was in the Marquis's residence, you already had a hunch about my affairs. But you stood by and watched coldly. I'm not here to pursue this matter with you now. Tomorrow, you will take your other concubines to the Yong'an Prince's residence and find Su Yinhan...!"
The concubine knelt down with a thud, crying and pleading, "Miss, I was wrong! I was forced into this situation. Besides, how could I dare go to the Prince of Yong'an's residence!"
Su Yinyin remained unmoved. "When you harmed me, did you ever think of this day? If you dare not go, then you and your son can wait to die. If the Marquis finds out that your son is not his son, but...!"
The concubine panicked; she hadn't expected her secret to be discovered so easily. "Please, Miss, don't say anything more. I will certainly obey your orders."
Seeing her aunt's terrified expression, the eldest daughter, Su Yinyin, stood up to leave. Just as she reached the door, she turned back and coldly said, "Don't even think about tipping her off, or you'll face the consequences." With that, she strode away.
Upon leaving the Marquis of Yongyi's residence, the old man hurriedly came forward and wrapped an even thicker cloak around Su Yinyin's body.
Su Yinyin looked up slightly at Lao Yi, a hint of reliance in her eyes. "Jin, now we just wait for the fish to take the bait."
