The scheming empress starts by conquering men

Shao Jincong frowned slightly and reacted slowly, but he quickly came to his senses.

He then lowered his head and chuckled, gently stroking the tip of his nose with his hand to suppress the smile at the corners of his mouth.

It turned out that His Highness was venting his anger for him. He had just wronged His Highness and His Highness still had him in his heart.

He looked at Shaodian Sishui expectantly, hoping that she would say more of these ugly and abusive words.

Shao Yujie's face turned from blue to purple, and then to white.

He bit his lip secretly and looked at Shaodian Sishui with grievance and confusion.

Why should they target him? Why should they help Shao Jincong? How can he be inferior to Shao Jincong?

Thinking that the person in front of him was the Sixth Princess with a bad reputation, Shao Yujie kept comforting himself.

It’s okay, it’s okay. Shaodian Sishui is just an unpopular and useless princess.

She is not as kind and upright as the Second Princess, nor as considerate as the Second Princess.

The fact that she could quibble with a man like him in such an occasion showed that her heart was as small as a needle and a thorn of wheat.

This princess has no grace at all, and she is only embarrassing herself.

As long as he doesn't feel ashamed, then the one who is ashamed must be Shaodian Sishui.

The situation here was quickly reported to Shao Bohou in the front hall.

After hearing the guard's report, Shao Bohou immediately gave orders.

"Have you got the people ready?"

"Please rest assured, my lord. Everything is ready." The guard hesitated for a moment and then said, "But if the young master accidentally falls into the lake during the assassination, how can we rescue him? What if your highness can't float?"

Then wouldn't the assassins they pretended to be had to save people first?

Isn't this exposed?

But if he didn't save people, the Sixth Prince wouldn't be able to float on the water, and the young master would be drowned by the lake, which could easily result in someone's death.

As for assassinating the young master, it would be fine to see how the Sixth Prince reacts. Even if it's fake, it's the Marquis's fault for suddenly becoming a little willful.

But in the middle of winter, would the Sixth Prince jump into the lake to save people? How could this be possible? How could the Sixth Prince risk his life to save people?

Even if it was hot spring water, you would still feel bitingly cold once you got ashore. Who would risk everything to save a stranger?

As a guard beside the Marquis, it is really hard to understand what the Marquis does.

"Just follow my instructions and don't worry about the rest."

His thoughts were different from those of the guards.

The guard took the order and left, asking the man in black to go to the Moon Pavilion in the Lake to assassinate Shao Jincong.

Inside the Moon Pavilion, people were saying all sorts of things.

"Shao Yujie is in big trouble now. I am dying of laughter!"

"Don't you think Shao Yujie just wanted to deliberately anger Shao Jincong? But His Highness didn't even give him face at all."

"Your Highness is worthy of being called the Sixth Prince. Let me tell you, I heard from outsiders that Shao Yujie and Shao Jincong both like His Highness, and the two are secretly competing with each other!"

"Is this true? Shao Jincong is the Second Prince's man, you can't say such things!"

"I'm not talking nonsense, of course it's true. Look at the way Shao Jincong looks at His Highness the Sixth Prince. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that."

"Yes, yes, I see!"

"Look at Shao Yujie again, he also has a face full of reluctance and grievance. Humph, I said this is true."

The crowd was chatting animatedly, and all Shaodian Sishui could hear was a bunch of chattering.

"Noisy!"

Shaodian Sishui glanced indifferently at this group of men in the boudoir, a bunch of gossips!

Seeing that they were still watching the show, she spoke in a cold voice.

"Did you not get enough of the show at the banquet and come here to cause trouble for me?"

She paused slightly and looked at Nong Yuanxin who was winking at Shao Yujie.

"Or do you want me to give you a poem, too?"

Everyone suddenly realized and shook their heads quickly.

They didn’t dare, they didn’t dare to bring trouble upon Shaodian Sishui. Many of them bowed obediently and left.

Ji Xingchen was also among them. He had important things to do now and had no time to watch a group of men acting in front of a princess. It was disgusting.

Nong Yuanxin secretly winked at Shao Yujie, meaning that he should leave quickly and not stay here.

Shao Yujie didn't move, just stood there with his head down.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to leave, but he really wants to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Even though Shaodian Sishui had just scolded him, at least he had already lost face. Could he lose face again?

He would rather stand here and go nowhere than follow that group of people out, so as to avoid being laughed at by those men in the boudoir when he goes out.

Do you really think he doesn't know what Shaodian Si Shu'an is thinking?

She just wanted to send them away on purpose so that the other men would laugh at him and make him look bad.

However, Shao Yujie guessed wrong. Everything he thought was wrong. Shaodian Sishui only wanted to make things easier for the assassin hiding in the rockery.

Otherwise, there are too many people here, how can we assassinate him?

Cooperate with Shao Bohou to assassinate Shao Jincong and let them perform a good show for him.

Shaodian Sishui really put a lot of effort into it.

For the first time, I felt deeply helpless.

Who else can be like her? When others want to secretly perform for her, she not only has to pretend not to know, but also has to actively cater to and cooperate with them, and try hard to create a scene that allows them to continue performing.

Shaodian Sishui raised his eyes slightly, looked at the figure hiding in the rockery not far away, and sighed secretly.

What is coming will eventually come. Since Shao Chaogan insists on testing her, just let it come.

If Shao Jincong was really injured, it had nothing to do with her.

If anyone is to blame, it can only be blamed on Shao Chaogan for being too self-righteous and thinking that she really likes Shao Jincong.

Shaodian Sishui sat in the Moon Pavilion, looking away lazily, and paid no attention to Shao Jincong or Shao Yujie.

Shao Jincong's eyes were on her from beginning to end, never moving away.

Shao Yujie did not leave, his sinister gaze switching back and forth between Shao Jincong and Shaodian Sishui.

"kill!"

Finally, Shao Bohou's men who were hiding in the dark came out.

Shaodian Sishui looked over with interest and saw six people wearing black clothes and covering their faces in broad daylight.

The corners of her mouth twitched slightly and she turned her head away, not wanting to watch.

Is this also called assassination?

Shao Yujie was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He screamed and hurriedly dodged to the side with his head in his hands.

Shao Jincong looked at the man in black who suddenly appeared with a look of astonishment, and shouted calmly to the people around him.

"Someone come quickly to protect the Sixth Prince!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the black man raised his knife and slashed at Shao Jincong.

"Shao Jincong! Today is the day you die!"

Shaodian Sishui was speechless. They still had the leisure to say such stupid things.

If you want to kill someone, you have to shout out his name. You specifically tried to assassinate Shao Jincong at the Rejuvenation Banquet at Shao Bohou's Mansion. Where's your brain?

What was even more outrageous was that no guards nearby had heard the news and rushed over. Coincidentally, Shaodian Si Shui's temples were throbbing. He tried hard to suppress the twitching smile on his face, turned his head and looked away.

Shao Jincong was not surprised this time, but rather a little confused.

Are these men in black here to assassinate him?

Who dared to assassinate him in Shao Bohou’s mansion?

Are they tired of living?

Before he could figure it out.

Amid the flash of swords and sabers, the sword stabbed Shao Jincong in the face.

Shao Jincong remained calm in the face of danger and dodged the attack narrowly.

Although his martial arts skills are not very strong, he still has some basic kung fu.

He could have easily avoided that attack just now.

After he dodged, he reached out to grab Shaodian Sishui's arm, wanting her to leave quickly.

However, before he could reach Shaodian Sishui, those people attacked him and Shaodian Sishui again.

"Be careful, Your Highness!"

Those men in black saw that Shaodian Si Shui did not offer any help, and they were afraid that they would be exposed if they continued to fight with Master Shao.

They could only be forced to attack Shaodian Sishui.

Shaodian Sishui lightly twisted the teacup with her fingertips, and at the moment when the 'man in black' came forward with a sword to chop at her, she used her internal force on her hand.

"Whoosh!"

The teacup flew out quickly.

With a puff, the man in black, who had not yet approached Shaodian Sishui, was knocked flying, hit the wall of the rockery opposite, then fell to the ground, and did not get up for a long time.

Seeing this, several other men in black stood in place with swords raised, not knowing whether to fall or leave.

You look at me and I look at you, and we look at each other, and it's very awkward.

"Ugh!"

Shaodian Sishui sighed, stood up with his hands behind his back, and looked at the men in black not far away.

"This play is too fake, it's not original and interesting."

She didn't want to expose it, but the problem was that even a brainless person could see how fake this show was, let alone her.
