“Just repeating old stories, nothing new.” He stopped, suddenly raised his head and looked at me: “Why do you suddenly ask about the Lam family?” “It's been three years, have you still not been able to let go of that Lam family girl?” These words sound like Lam Uyen Thanh and I have feelings. I waved my hand and said that while attending a tea party, I heard someone mention it so I casually asked. Father snorted and did not pursue further. He also said two sentences that it would be a good thing for me to attend the tea festival, not to be bored at home all day, so to go out and walk more. If it really doesn't work, he'll hire a live-in for me. I answered a few quick questions and then walked out. But the doubts in my heart grew deeper. If the Lam family only advocates peace, at most it is just a disagreement, which cannot be considered a major crime. But Tong Ky Vong insisted that before his death, he had always investigated them. With his serious and stubborn personality, he wouldn't go to the extent of losing his life just because of a slight disagreement in political opinion. Unless there's something shady behind the Lam family's back. Just when I couldn't find a clue, Lam Uyen Thanh sent me an invitation. She said that her husband Khuong Dien's birthday was coming soon and that she wanted to hold a party in the palace, inviting many friends and relatives. Although I don't know why I was classified by Lam Uyen Thanh as "relative and relative". But if I have the opportunity to approach Lam Uyen Thanh, of course I have to attend. The party was held in the Khuong family's back garden. At this time, it was just late summer and early autumn, and the cinnamon flowers in the garden were half blooming. The fragrance is so strong that it makes people dizzy. The male guests drank wine and discussed things in front, while the female relatives were led by Lam Uyen Thanh to the waterside to admire the fish and enjoy the flowers. Below the water tower is a circulating lake, connected to the river outside. A few brocade carp flicked their tails beneath the lotus leaves. Lam Uyen Thanh stood by the railing, using a handkerchief to hold fish food for the ladies to sprinkle and play with. She smiled brightly, looked elegant and dignified. I stood two steps away from her, looking at the begonias in ecstasy. The incident occurred without any warning signs. When Lam Uyen Thanh walked, her foot suddenly slipped. The whole person rushed straight towards me. She bumped me very cleverly, elbowing me in the side. The force was so strong that it seemed like it was intentionally trying to push me into the water. My feet wobbled, my body was tilted outward, I could even clearly see my reflection on the water. At this moment, something suddenly pushed me from the front, bringing with it icy cold air. I took the opportunity to grab the railing, pulled hard, trying to drag myself back. "I'm really sorry! The lakeside is slippery, is sister Nguyet The injured anywhere?" Lam Uyen Thanh hugged her ankle, but still tried to step forward to care for me. "It's okay." I stood up and brushed the dust off my body. Out of the corner of my eye, I glimpsed a dark shadow underneath the water's surface gliding close to the stone floor of the water tower. When something like this happens, the female family is no longer interested in watching fish anymore. Everyone returned to the banquet table, continued drinking, talking and laughing. I don't drink alcohol, so the maid poured me a cup of hot tea. Just as I lifted the cup to bring it to my mouth, there was suddenly a "whoosh" sound behind me, and the water splashed. The water fell into my teacup.06I suddenly turned my head, only to see the water surface behind me rippling with waves. The lady sitting next to me at the water's edge was also startled by this movement. But she just thought that the carp in the lake suddenly swung its tail, unintentionally alarming me. Lam Uyen Thanh also hurriedly walked over, repeatedly instructing the maid: "Quickly exchange another bowl for Miss Tham. Bring down all the tea utensils.

Rinse with hot water and brew again." The maid quickly collected my cup of tea and went down to brew it again. At that moment, a cold air suddenly approached my ear. Tong Ky Vong's dark voice rang out: "The maid just poured something into the teapot." "A The, someone wants you dead." I squeezed my hand tightly. Once may have been an accident, but twice was an attempt. Just because at the tea festival I casually asked about the scent and mentioned the North, Lam Uyen Thanh was so wary that she even wanted to kill someone. Anger flared up in my heart, but on the surface I didn't show it at all. I didn't touch the cup of tea and wanted to go back to the palace to rest first. Lam Uyen Thanh still gently sent the maid to send me out Since I have attracted the Lam family's attention, I don't need to continue pretending. Tong Ky Vong can protect me once or twice, but he can't protect me forever. Instead of passively waiting for Lam Uyen Thanh to take action, I found Mrs. Luu, who was kicked out of Lam's house two months ago Government for seven or eight years is also considered an old person.
