Chapter 569: Let the Slaves Take the Blame Again!
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liu Shimei raised an eyebrow, not eager to examine Liu Yan’er.
She needed a gynecological examination, and moreover, she had been played with by Zhang Qingxi. Who knows how dirty she might be?!
What if she’s sick?
Without some benefits, why would she be willing?
And if the benefits weren’t substantial enough, she wouldn’t agree either!
Seeing her expression, Liu Fuyun knew she wouldn’t agree to examine Yan’er like this. He waved his hand and said, “You go. As long as you can find a way to help Yan’er get through this. Consider it a debt I owe you. Next time you have any requests, feel free to ask.”
“Get through this?” Liu Shimei was puzzled.
After a moment of thought, she understood his meaning and asked incredulously, “Father, I am just a doctor. If Yan’er is injured below, I can treat her with medicine. If she’s afraid of getting pregnant, I can give her contraception tea. But if she becomes like me, a fallen woman, how can I help her get through this?”
The words ‘fallen woman’ were p.r.o.nounced with great emphasis.
Se??ch ?ew?o?e? /o?g o? ?oo?l?
Intentional emphasis!
She truly admired Liu Fuyun’s audacity. It was just too much.
Was he suggesting that she conceal Yan’er’s loss of virtue, deceive everyone, and continue as a candidate for Crown Prince’s consort?
This was no joke; it would be a crime against the Emperor!
Furthermore, when she was manipulated by Yan’er in the past, no one said they would find a way for her to get through it!
“Shimei,” Liu Fuyun was indeed a Grand Chancellor with profound political ac.u.men and a scheming mind. His thoughts were as intricate as a beehive.
In just a short while, he had already figured it out in his mind. “Everyone who knows about today’s events is present here. As long as the people here do not spread the word, this matter can be treated as if it never happened. As for how to deceive Yan’er on her wedding night in the future, Father knows you are clever; there must be a way!”
Liu Shimei,
She thought, ‘I might be clever, but what good is that now? Why should I help you deceive the Emperor?!’
But there was something Liu Fuyun said that was right: she really could find a way to deceive him!
As long as Liu Fuyun could keep the people present from gossiping, deceiving Huangfu He on the wedding night was just a matter of administering the drug!
“Guards!” Liu Fuyun shouted to his trusted subordinates, “Deal with all the servants from the Lotus Courtyard and all the servants from the Zhang family who came along. Make sure not a word of this leaks out!”
Everyone was shocked!
Only Zhang Qingxi, who had been beaten half to death and was groggy on the ground, didn’t react.
Liu Shimei’s heart tightened, and she couldn’t help but ask, “When Father says ‘deal with,’ does he mean they will all be killed?”
She, a modern person, couldn’t stand this kind of thing—where the master made a mistake and the servants had to bear the blame!
But Liu Fuyun didn’t answer her question. For the sake of the future of the Liu family and the reputation of Liu Yan’er, these servants’ lives were worthless!
Liu Shimei felt an even deeper chill in her heart.
It wasn’t because of Liu Fuyun’s vastly different att.i.tudes towards the premarital chast.i.ty of his two daughters. In Liu Fuyun’s eyes, Liu Yan’er wasn’t much different from her; they were just p.a.w.ns.
What was tragic was: blinded by greed, they ignored human lives!
No one dared to utter a word about Liu Fuyun’s decision, including the people from Zhang Qian and Wei’s families. Under the fright from the imperial adviser, even Wei couldn’t muster the courage to cry anymore!
“Zhang Qian, your son has committed a grave mistake. How do you intend to deal with it?” Liu Fuyun’s anger flared up, needing an outlet.
What could Zhang Qian do?
He was utterly lost!
But before a conclusion could be reached here, Zhang Qingxi, who had been beaten into a b.l.o.o.d.y pulp and had completely lost the strength to cry out, suddenly started screaming like a slaughtered pig!
