Chapter 4 — This little sister plotted to harm me, but I didn't expect that this life would lead me to a dead end

Ninh Vuong Phi gently patted To Lien Nhuy's shoulder, her tone was gentle but did not allow for doubt: "The second lady of the To residence was just too worried so she panicked and said the wrong thing. I am a sister, why do I have to be harsh with you? It's all just a misunderstanding, it's okay to say it clearly."

“What the princess said is very correct.”

I retreated along the stairs, the corner of my lips still holding a smile: "You care about me, but I don't know whether it's good or bad." This ruckus ended just like that. To Lien Nhuy was still standing in place, her knuckles clenching her handkerchief until they turned white. At this point, I'm afraid she's about to go crazy. After planning for so long, in the end I turned the tables, and in return, everyone had to grit their teeth and hate them. But there's one thing I can't figure out. Ninh Vuong's spring banquet, how strict were the precautions. If you want to burn incense in the mist room early, you have to take me and Co Truong Phong there separately. How much bravery does this require? Ninh Vuong Palace is not an ordinary family. The servants' palace was as crowded as clouds. Outsiders, don't even talk about moving your hands or feet inside, just take a few more steps and you'll be questioned. A girl like To Lien Nhuy who hasn't been married yet, can she only rely on herself to arrange all this in the Royal Palace? No way. Unless someone is helping her. And this person in Ninh Vuong palace still has quite a lot of power. My eyes remained motionless, glancing over Ninh Vuong Phi's body. Today she has helped To Lien Nhuy many times. It's a royal concubine, but he cares about such a concubine. It's really unreasonable. Return to the General's Palace. The main hall was brightly lit. What happened at today's spring banquet, I'm afraid it's already been spread. We entered the hall. Sure enough, his father was sitting in the chair with a black face. The mother sat next to her, her face also extremely unsightly. I said with a serious face: "Father, at today's spring banquet, someone burned incense in the room, took me and Co Truong Phong into the room separately, and then locked the door from the outside."

"If my daughter hadn't discovered it in time and climbed out the window to leave, the To family house would have lost all face at this time. Later, my sister still had the right time to bring someone in to arrest the fraud. I don't know if it was just a coincidence or not."

His father's eyebrows immediately furrowed into the shape of the word Xuyen.

“You said Lien Nhuy?”

As soon as the words fell, a series of broken cries came from outside the door. I don't know when Aunt Lieu came here. She went limp and knelt down outside the doorway, tears immediately falling from her eyes. She was wearing a pure white outfit, with only a silver hairpin on her head, making her whole person even more weak and pitiful.

“Master, the eldest lady is trying to unjustly kill Nhuy Nhi!”

Concubine Lieu knelt in front of her father, crying so much that she couldn't breathe.

"Don't you know what's wrong with that child Nhi Nhi? He saw an ant and couldn't bear to trample one to death. How could he do such an unconscionable thing!"

“Eldest Miss, I know that you have always not been pleasing to the eyes of us and your mother, but Nhuy Nhi is She's your younger sister, how could you throw dirty water on her like that!”

To Lien Nhuy knelt behind Concubine Liu, tears falling like a broken string of pearls continuously falling. Father's expression clearly fluctuated. Concubine Lieu is an orphan who was saved by her father on the battlefield. After many years of wind and rain on the border, she had been by her father's side for seven or eight years, and their feelings were certainly not ordinary. His father was seriously injured and nearly lost his life many times, all of which were taken care of by Concubine Lieu day and night at his bedside. This relationship, even if mother and father are childhood friends, is difficult to overcome. I didn't expect my father to believe me. But what should be said, we must say clearly. I spoke faintly: "My daughter never said it was Second Sister who did it, she just told the truth. Why did you immediately accuse Second Sister of the crime as soon as she opened her mouth? Or do you already have the answer in your heart?"
