"Sorry, I……"
Yan Ruyu stopped crying and shook her head, but before she could finish her words, a shadow suddenly fell in front of her eyes.
The pressure was so great that she subconsciously stepped back. Jiang Mo strode forward and pressed her against the column of the corridor.
Yan Ruyu looked at him in fear.
Jiang Mo's face was cold, just like that night at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, with a hint of anger and a dangerous aura in his eyes.
"Why refuse? You think I'm too old, huh?"
Yan Ruyu was stunned, she looked so scary, how could she say such nonsense.
"No."
Yan Ruyu was about to shake her head in denial again, but Jiang Mo suddenly stretched out his hand, held her head, and lifted her face up so that her eyes were looking at him.
"You do. You told Miss Guo of the Vice Minister's Mansion on the afternoon of the eighth day of the Western lunar month in the fifteenth year of the Le Dynasty."
He looked into her tearful eyes and complained word by word through gritted teeth.
Yan Ruyu's expression was stagnant, her pupils were full of shock, and all the suffocating emotions just now were forgotten, and all her attention was focused on what he said.
Fifteen years of Le Dynasty? five years ago?
She thought about it carefully, and finally remembered that one day five years ago, she was entertaining friends in the backyard of her house. Her friends teased her and asked her if her family intended for her to marry Jiang Hu and become the princess. She did say casually that Jiang Mo was too old and unworthy of her.
Yan Ruyu looked at him gnashing his teeth, and then caught a glimpse of the eye-catching red robe on his body, and suddenly felt a little bit dumbfounded.
"Are you wearing this just to look younger?"
Was there ever a time when Jiang Mo was so childish?
"certainly not!"
Jiang Mo exerted a little force and raised her face a little higher, then lowered his head and leaned forward.
The two eyes met, the tips of their noses brushed against each other.
"I just want you to see me at a glance!"
After saying that, Jiang Mo suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Only then did Yan Ruyu come to her senses and hurriedly pushed him, but as soon as she raised her hand, Jiang Mo grabbed it and held it tightly in his hand. She was as helpless as that night and could only whimper and beg for mercy in a panic.
"Someone is coming..."
"What are you afraid of? They don't care about you, so why should you care about them."
Like an enlightenment, Yan Ruyu stopped struggling and the panic on her face disappeared.
Jiang Mo was satisfied with her reaction and stopped kissing her, but she did not step back.
He covered her tightly, lowered his head and whispered to her.
"I know what you are worried about. If you can't pull out the thorn in your heart, then swallow it!"
Yan Ruyu gave up all resistance and smiled bitterly, "I tried, but it didn't work."
She tried to find the outer room to solve the hidden danger, tried to find evidence of Yan Zikang's crime of doting on his concubine and killing his wife, and even tried to collect Yan Zikang's unjust actions to make him pay, but they all failed.
Jiang Mo shook his head, half-smiling but not smiling, with some kind of confusion flashing in his deep eyes.
"Harder."
Yan Ruyu was startled and looked at him in disbelief. Does he know what he is talking about?
Yan Zikang is not only her father, but also his teacher.
Jiang Mo's eyes were full of disdain, "Morality only binds moral people, and they are like dogs..."
"kill!"
He leaned close to her ear, touched her thin lips lightly, and let out a solemn whisper.
Yan Ruyu's heart was beating wildly, and the darkest thought hidden in the deepest part of her heart seemed to have broken free of all seals and started to scream crazily.
Jiang Mo did it on purpose. He knew the hatred in her heart. He deliberately incited her and lured her into the abyss.
But is it necessary to be shattered into pieces under the abyss?
No, there is also nirvana and rebirth under the abyss.
Yan Ruyu slowly turned her eyes, and her expression returned to calm.
"Does Your Majesty know that you have such a devilish heart hidden under your humble skin?"
Jiang Mo curled his lips and smiled, "I have no interest in imperial power. From the beginning to the end, you are the only one who has seduced me."
Some people are dazzling without knowing it, and some people want to watch but become crazy little by little.
If he wasn't crazy, how could he covet his junior? How could he come all the way back to the capital from the fiefdom after hearing that she was getting married? Not to mention that after hearing Yan Zikang beg him to recommend Yan Ruyu to the emperor as a candidate for crown princess at the New Year's Eve banquet, he would block her behind the rockery like a mad dog...
This time, he must take her out of this prison.
"Let it go, I can be your stepping stone or your knife, as long as you need it."
——
The thorn in Yan Ruyu's heart has been buried for so long that it has become one with flesh and blood and cannot be pulled out. Every time she breathes, it hurts.
The hatred that has been accumulated for a long time is enough to swallow everything.
She had long wanted revenge, so when the evil thoughts were released, Yan Ruyu immediately took action.
Yan Ruyu took advantage of Yan Chengze's drunkenness and gave him a bowl of Juezi medicine.
The little loser who occupied the magpie's nest thought she was giving him hangover soup.
How ridiculous!
Evildoers act arrogantly without any reflection.
Jiang Mo is right, a scoundrel like a dog deserves to be killed!
She grabbed his hair, pulled up his fat pig head, and when he opened his mouth to scream, she poured the bowl of hot potion into his mouth.
The waste let out screams and exclamations, and Yan Ruyu wished she could stuff the whole bowl into his mouth, letting him know not to eat what he shouldn't eat, and not to think about what he shouldn't think about, otherwise he would be ruined and his descendants would be ruined!
"Yan Ruyu, what are you doing? What did you feed your brother?"
Yan Zikang heard the waste's cry for help and rushed over panting.
"A bastard, is he worthy of being my brother?"
Yan Ruyu sneered and looked at Yan Zikang provocatively.
Yan Zikang felt sorry for his precious son and rushed forward with anger in his eyes to protect his life.
Yan Ruyu raised her hand and knocked the bowl in her hand on the bedside, causing the broken porcelain to crash. She held the sharp piece of porcelain and pointed it at Yan Zikang who came forward.
"stop."
Yan Zikang and everyone in the room looked at her in shock.
Yan Zikang roared angrily: "Niezhang, are you crazy? I have raised you so well and provided you with fine clothes, food and land, and you are going to repay me with the tip of a knife like this?"
Yan Ruyu looked at him with disdain, "Master Xiangguo, from now on, I am the only bloodline of the Yan family. If you are more obedient, I can provide for you until you die. But if you want to bring in any more cats or dogs, I will give them to you too." A bowl of Juezi soup!”
Yan Ruyu held the porcelain piece, and blood slipped from her palm. She was obviously a small person, but she had the aura that one man could stand against ten thousand others.
"If you don't believe it, try it!"
Yan Zikang was furious, with murderous intent in his eyes, "It's not the turn of this family for you, a mere woman from the back house, to talk nonsense here, you evildoer, kneel down!"
As soon as Yan Zikang finished speaking, a loud announcement came from outside:
"Princess Runan accepted the order——"
Yan Zikang's expression froze, and Yan Ruyu curled her lips and smiled.
From the beginning, she had gone in the wrong direction. She wanted truth and justice and wanted him to be convinced, so she kept looking for evidence and clues to find the existence of the outer chamber, but it was not as satisfying as having the power to crush him.
She destroyed his life and left him helpless, leaving him to rely only on himself.
"Father, when you see your daughter in the future, don't forget to kneel down to greet her."
