Chapter 246： : Deny even to death

Gu Xueting and Su Yuyu looked at each other and said, "Bring her over."

In front of the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion, Pei Yuan's car stopped here.

Since the last Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, she has never been able to step into the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion, let alone meet Gu Xueting himself.

Although Gu Xueting treated her indifferently in the past, he would still give her some face and would not let her be turned away. But now... what happened?

She felt uncontrollably flustered.

If she is no longer able to step into Prince Chen's Mansion, I am afraid that rumors that she is disliked by Prince Chen will spread in the imperial capital soon.

This time, she had to step through the door of Prince Chen's Mansion no matter what!

In the carriage, Pei Yuan tightened his grip on a jade pendant hanging around his waist.

It was a piece of crystal clear blood jade, shaped like a peculiar flower.

If anyone from the upper world sees it, they will definitely recognize that this is the emperor's flower that grows in the demonic realm.

It is said that this kind of flower was transformed from the corpse of the God Emperor's daughter. It is extremely beautiful and charming, and has its own charm effect. Those who are not strong-willed will be deceived accidentally, and then be swallowed up to the remains.

Gradually, the emperor's daughter's flower spread its extremely evil reputation and was feared by the world.

Pei Yuan dug her nails into the lines on the jade pendant. She thought she would be rejected again this time, but unexpectedly the maid came back and told her: "Girl, the prince has agreed to let you in."

Pei Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, got off the carriage gracefully in her best manner, and walked into the mansion.

The boy took her all the way to the pavilion.

Seeing Gu Xueting, Pei Yuan couldn't help but keep her eyes glued to him. However, she always kept her identity in mind and did not forget to salute the two people in the pavilion.

When she straightened up, Su Yuyu spoke: "Miss Pei, this jade pendant is very unique. I seem to have seen it somewhere before. I wonder if Miss Pei can take it off and show it to me?"

His eyes fell on the blood jade worn around Pei Yuan's waist.

Pei Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously wanted to refuse. She had never left this jade pendant since she got it, and she never allowed others to touch it. However, if she refused, it would be a bit abrupt. After all, Su Yuyu only had to ask to see it. Just a look.

She looked towards Gu Xueting, but saw that his eyes fell on a little bird, and he didn't pay attention to her at all.

He had no choice but to take off the jade pendant and hand it over: "Master Su, please be careful. This is my mother's relic."

"Really?" Su Yuyu's tone was light and playful.

Pei Yuan felt uncomfortable under his gaze, as if he had seen through all the secrets.

After Su Yuyu looked at it, he did not return the jade pendant to her. Instead, he put it into Xiao Man's little basket, "Xiao Man, this is your master's jade pendant. Now that you have found it back, you have to show it to your master. Don't worry about it anymore." Stolen by bad guys."

Xiao Man barked twice, seemingly in response, and actually pulled the jade pendant under his body with his little paws and hid it.

At that moment, Pei Yuan felt a great panic, and her expression changed with horror: "Master Su, what do you mean? That jade pendant is clearly mine!"

Su Jackyyu "tsk": "Yours? You take other people's things as your own. After a long time, do you really think that you have become the owner of this thing?"

Pei Yuan's eyes darkened, "You, I don't understand what you are talking about. Brother Xueting, please ask him to return the jade pendant to me."

If the basket wasn't in Gu Xueting's hand, she would have grabbed it directly.

Gu Xueting finally gave her a look, but that look was like ten thousand years of ice, so cold that her soul began to tremble.

"I have found the real owner of the jade pendant. The person from four years ago is her, not you. Pei Qi, if you honestly tell me what happened, I can let you continue to be the daughter of the Pei family, otherwise -

“Miss Pei Qi went to Kaiyuan Temple to offer incense, but met bandits on the road and died. What do you think of this ending?”

These words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which made Pei Yuan's mind roar and his face turned pale.

He knows! He knows it!

And Gu Xueting's words made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

He arranged her inevitable death in such an understatement!

In the past, she only thought that he was cold and unapproachable, but now she realized how cold-blooded and ruthless he was, and he would show no mercy even if he wanted to kill her!

Even if she is a fake, does everything she has done in the past four years mean to him? Didn't it leave even a trace in his heart?

Pei Yuan reluctantly scanned his face inch by inch, but all she saw was indifference!

She lowered her eyes, pinched her palms tightly, and bit the soft flesh on the inner wall of her mouth with her teeth to prevent her from recklessly venting out the hatred in her heart.

She tried her best to calm down and chewed on what the two of them had just said.

Obviously, Gu Xueting already knew that the person from four years ago was not her. How did he know? Obviously he didn't remember the situation at that time, and later the men in black robes cleaned up all the traces, and even that **** Shen Yizhi threw his body into the river.

Obviously it shouldn’t have been leaked, but what went wrong? And how much does he know?

Pei Yuan was going crazy, but at this moment, Gu Xueting and Su Yuyu were staring at each other with eager eyes. She knew that if she didn't say something, she would only end up with a tragic death!

Okay, didn’t he want to know what happened four years ago? She told him!

“Four years ago, I went to Beijing to live with my relatives, and I happened to be on the same ship as Miss Shen. We hit it off and we got along very well.”

Su Jackyyu sneered slightly, obviously scorning her words.

Pei Yuan ignored it, "The ship stopped in Lincheng for a day to replenish supplies. Miss Shen and I felt stuffy in the ship, so we planned to go into the city for a walk. There were so many people on the street, and we were dispersed later. . But we agreed to meet at the pier, and when she didn't come back in the evening, I was very worried, so I went to look for her separately.

"As a result, I lost my way unknowingly and walked into a forest. I saw the prince lying there. I went to check and he suddenly woke up. His eyes were blood red. I was shocked. , turned around and ran. When I got back, I found that the jade pendant on my waist was missing. I wanted to go back and look for it, but the ship had already left. "

Pei Yuan was extremely worried. She raised her eyes and glanced at Gu Xueting. She saw that his hands on the table were clenched tightly into fists. It was obvious that he was not in a calm mood.

"That day, Miss Shen fell ill and developed a high fever. I went to see her and heard her talking nonsense. At that time, I also asked her maid to take good care of her. Unexpectedly, the next day, I heard that she committed suicide by diving into the water. When the incident happened, her maid blamed herself for not taking good care of her and jumped into the water. "

Gu Xueting suddenly asked: "What is her maid's name?"

"Qing Luan." Pei Yuan answered without any hesitation.

Gu Xueting said: "Continue."

He wanted to see what else she could say.
