Chapter 152 The methods are getting more and more insidious.
However, what met everyone's eyes was a smooth and flawless skin, without any signs of injury.
Only the area where Zhou Suquan had pinched and squeezed so hard was slightly red and swollen.
Yun Shang seemed annoyed and brushed Zhou Suquan's hand away.
He said coldly, "Lord Zhou, please have some self-respect!"
Yu Wan almost burst out laughing.
Zhou Suquan stared at Yun Shang's hand, his eyes still filled with disbelief.
Prince Xuan said that the assassin was slashed on the arm, so why is there no knife wound on Yun Shang's arm?
Could it be that Prince Xuan guessed wrong?
Although Yun Shang is currently just a scholar, they all know that he is protected by Prince Chen.
He dared not offend the prince.
Zhou Su suppressed his doubts and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Yun Shang, saying, "Young Master Yun, I was being presumptuous."
"There's nothing unusual at the Yun residence. Follow me to search the next location."
After giving his instructions, Zhou Suquan turned and left.
Only after all the Imperial Guards had retreated did the servants who had been hiding to the side dare to show their faces and quietly tidy up the messy courtyard.
Yu Wan's faint smile vanished in an instant. She reached out to support Yun Shang and whispered, "Are you alright?"
Yun Shang didn't say anything, but pulled her around and went into the house.
Yu Wan lifted his clothes and watched as blood gradually seeped from his originally fair and smooth skin.
Yu Wan frowned deeply. "Sure enough, she's bleeding again."
She turned to get a hot towel and applied it to the bleeding area, muttering under her breath, "Zhou Suquan is too ruthless."
Yun Shang's wounds had already stopped healing after using Old Man Feng's medicine.
But Zhou Suquan pinched and squeezed him again, causing him to bleed.
Seeing the worry on her face, Yun Shang smiled and said, "I'm fine."
He looked at Yu Wan and asked softly, "Where did you learn about this method, my lady?"
In her haste, Yu Wan took her makeup powder and rubbed it on his arm, which actually covered the wound.
Yu Wan took a towel and wiped the powder off his wound, thinking to herself.
You don't understand. This is one of the four great evil arts of the 21st century.
She replied dismissively, "Powder can cover up blemishes on a woman's face, so it can naturally cover up blemishes on her body as well."
"Don't ask me where I know this. I'm just naturally intelligent and self-taught."
A hint of a smile flashed in Yun Shang's eyes.
After treating his wounds, Yu Wancai asked what had happened.
"Why didn't Prince Xuan send his personal guards to search for the assassins, but instead went to the Imperial Guards?"
Yun Shang leaned against the pillow, turned to the side, and cast a dark glance at him.
"I've drugged all the guards in Prince Xuan's mansion."
Yu Wan was taken aback, thinking she had misheard. "What?"
Yun Shang patiently repeated, "The guards of Prince Xuan's mansion were all drugged, and Prince Xuan ingested a bottle of the 'breath-clearing powder' developed by Old Man Feng."
Yu Wan: "..."
Tongqi San sounds like a very high-end and sophisticated name, but in reality, it is used to treat constipation.
People with constipation can eat this to relieve constipation and gas, while people without constipation can eat it...
It could flow out completely in one go.
She finally understood why Prince Xuan hadn't chased after her himself.
Yu Wan felt that Yun Shang's methods of revenge were becoming increasingly insidious, and silently complained a few times before asking in bewilderment, "Then how did you get your arm injured?"
"When I left, I was discovered by the guards of Prince Xuan's mansion and was cut by a dart thrown by them."
Got it, I didn't run away fast enough and got caught.
“Zhou Suquan has personally examined your injuries, so I don’t think Prince Xuan will suspect you anymore,” Yu Wan said. “The exams are in a few days, so you’d better behave yourself and not cause any more trouble.”
She spoke earnestly, as if giving instructions to the restless cat in the house.
Listening to her words, Yun Shang had a strange feeling that she was coaxing a child.
His eyes darkened, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Wan's head from behind.
Before Yu Wan could react, a cool kiss landed on her forehead.
"Thank you very much, madam."
The man's voice was light and pleasant.
For a moment, Yu Wan's heart skipped a beat.
She felt a burning sensation on her forehead where he touched her, and her body became hot.
Yu Wan secretly adjusted her breathing, cursing inwardly.
That vixen is seducing people again.
Not to mention how furious Prince Xuan was upon learning that the murderer had not been caught, while the Duke of Anguo's mansion was anxiously trying to find a way to get Chen Wan out, unexpectedly, Chen Wan was sent back to the mansion.
She was brought back by a jailer from the Ministry of Justice prison.
When the Duke and his wife learned of this, they were greatly surprised and rushed to the gate of the mansion, only to find Chen Wan standing alone at the gate, looking disheveled.
Upon seeing the Duke and his wife, tears of grievance streamed down her face in an instant. "Father, Mother..."
The Duke and his wife almost didn't recognize her.
If it were before, the Duchess of Anguo would have immediately rushed forward to hug her with heartache, but after seeing Yu Wan, she always felt as if a thorn was stuck in her heart.
The image of Yu Wan and Yu Qinghuai standing together always pops into my mind.
Hesitating for a moment, the Duchess of Anguo did not go forward to hug her.
Chen Wan sensed that something was wrong.
A flash of hatred crossed her eyes.
It's all Yu Wan's fault!
Why did she come back?! If she hadn't come back, she wouldn't have tried so hard to deal with her, and she wouldn't have ended up in this situation today!
The Duke and his wife did not notice anything amiss with her.
"Quickly." The Duchess of Anguo smelled the strange odor on her and hurriedly called to the maid beside her, "Take the young lady into the mansion to take a bath first, we can talk about the rest later."
The maid came over to help her, and as soon as she got close, she smelled the fishy, foul odor emanating from her.
His expression changed, and he almost couldn't hold back and vomited on the spot.
Chen Wan herself didn't realize it; after being locked up for three days, she had already gotten used to the smell.
Seeing the disdain on the maid's face, a flash of fierceness and murderous intent quickly crossed her eyes.
After the group entered the mansion, a figure slowly emerged from behind the gate.
Yu Qinghuai's face was full of determination.
He was certain that this "Yu Wan" was definitely not his biological sister.
His fierce aura and calculating nature were impossible to conceal.
……
An hour later, Chen Wan finished bathing.
She was exhausted and wanted to lie down and sleep, but the maid said that the Duke and Duchess of Anguo asked her to go to the front hall after taking a bath.
Chen Wan knew why the Duke and Duchess of Anguo were so eager to see her.
In the past, she probably wouldn't have known how to explain it.
But now, she's not worried anymore.
Chen Wanqiang roused himself and went to the front hall.
To her surprise, in the front hall, besides the Duke and his wife, there was also a handsome young boy.
The young boy stared at her curiously as soon as he saw her.
As if remembering something, Chen Wan walked over and reached out to hold the boy's hand.
With her eyes slightly red, she said, "You must be my younger brother Qinghuai, right? I've heard my parents mention you before, and I've been looking forward to meeting you soon."
Yu Qinghuai traveled all over the world with the great Confucian scholar and met all sorts of people.
Perhaps even the Duke of Anguo and his wife were not as good at judging people as he was.
He could see through the woman's hypocrisy almost instantly.
He felt utterly disgusted, subtly avoiding her hand, and said calmly, "Sister, men and women should be mindful of their boundaries."
Chen Wan was taken aback by his words and her expression froze for a moment before she said, "I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
Looking at Yu Qinghuai's attitude and comparing it with his previous attitude towards Yu Wan, the Duke and Duchess of Anguo understood everything.
Qinghuai was now convinced that this "sister" was fake.
