Chapter 6
Chapter 6 — She stole the engagement, stole the grace that saved my life, but could not steal the person who heard my heart
I raised my eyes. She looked at me:
“That's right, do you have any questions, elder sister?”
I smiled softly:
“No.”
【The rain only started falling in the middle of the night.】 【When I found Luc Thoi Dien, it was not yet dark.】 【Tham Tri Y, you're wrong again.】 Luc Thoi Dien raised the teacup, hiding a smile at the corner of his lips. Someone else asked:
“So how did the second lady stop the bleeding for the Royal Family?”
Tham Tri Y had clearly prepared in advance.
“Of course I tore off my sleeve to help the Prince bandage him.”
I couldn't help but look at Luc Thoi Dien. 【Whose sleeve did she tear?】 【At that time, you were covered in blood, who dared to touch it casually? I clearly gave you thirty-two stitches at that time.] Luc Thoi Dien choked. Everyone simultaneously looked at him. He put down the tea cup, his expression still the same as usual.
“Go ahead.”
I bowed my head to hold back my laughter. Tham Tri Y thought that he was telling her to continue talking, and immediately became even more pleased.
“Then I hid the Prince in the hunter's house and guarded him all night.”
I put down the tea cup.
“Did you really keep watch all night?”
She looked at me:
“What do you mean, elder sister?”
I didn't answer, just turned to look at the manager at the banquet.
"I heard that today the palace has prepared some old things for noble people to enjoy. Among them is an old outfit from the incident in Tay Son three years ago. I wonder if I can bring it here or not?"
The manager immediately looked at Luc Thoi Dien. Luc Thoi Dien nodded. Not long after, the old clothes were brought up. A black exoskeleton with a long tear in front of its chest. Although the blood stains were old, one could still see the danger of that year. Tham Tri Y's face changed slightly. I stood up.
“If you were the one who personally saved people, you would recognize this outfit, right?”
She reluctantly smiled:
“Of course I noticed.”
I pointed to the inside of the hem.
“So do you know why there are suture marks here?”
She lowered her head to look a little closer. Those threads are extremely small, hidden inside the lining of the shirt. She basically didn't know.
“Maybe it will be patched up later.”
I nodded.
“Then my sister, look at the wound again.”
I expanded the old outfit. Around the tear in the front of the chest, there are three marks that were once pressed through by sutures. I said slowly:
"Back then, if the arrow wound had simply been bandaged, this type of needle mark would not have been left on the clothes. Only someone who first sewed the skin together, then used a cloth to stop the bleeding, would have left such a mark."
Tham Tri Y's face immediately turned a little whiter. To Kien Bach also turned his head to look at her.
“Tri Y, didn't you say it was just a bandage?”
Tham Tri Y bit her lip:
“That year I was so scared that I remembered wrongly.”
I burst out laughing.
"So do you still remember that Vuong's injury was below the left chest, or above the chest?"
Tham Tri Y suddenly raised her head. She looked at Luc Thoi Dien. But Luc Thoi Dien still had no expression. No one helped her. She can only guess for herself.
“Left breast.”
I shook my head. Tham Tri Y immediately changed her words:
“It's the right breast, I accidentally said the wrong thing just now.”
I shook my head again.
“Also wrong.”
She was completely stunned. I turned around and looked towards everyone.
“The arrow that year pierced from the back shoulder, diagonally down to the front of the chest. If at that time there was no one who first sealed the bloodline behind his shoulder for him, he would not have been able to hold on until dawn."
In the banquet, countless voices immediately rang out. Tham Tri Y was really panicking.
“Why do you know so clearly?”
I looked at the jade pendant on her waist.
“Because what you are wearing on your waist… is my jade.”
Her face immediately changed drastically.
“No!”
We take one step forward.
"There is a crack on the back of the jade piece. I accidentally dropped it when I was ten years old."
She immediately covered the jade piece tightly.
"Eldest sister, you can't resent me because of the divorce and then slander me like that."
