Under Shangguan Wan's deliberate planning, the Wu Mansion had become more and more lifeless, but Wu Xiaofei was having a happy day.
Because as long as he had his own Empress to accompany him, neither eating nor drinking would be a problem. He had already reached an extremely insane level.
This was the case for those who possessed too deep of a mesmerizing skill.
It was only when she was taking a bath that he was not by her side.
She thought that even though her emperor loved the empress, he was not like Wu Xiaofei, who was addicted to the idea.
"Empress …" She placed the water on her master's shoulder, wanting to say something but then stopped.
Naturally, Shangguan Wan could tell that she was worried, so she asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"I just feel that the Wu Residence is much more terrifying compared to when we first entered. How about we settle this matter and leave?"
Even in his dreams, Wu Xiaofei wanted to obtain the Empress's body. If he was not careful, he would have taken advantage of her.
Shangguan Wan felt that this little girl's suggestion was not unreasonable, she smiled, "Fine, I'll do it as soon as possible."
"Yes, yes." Only then did she reveal a smile.
Even though the Wu Residence was already in the hands of the Empress, Old Master Wu still refused to give up and continued to oppose the Empress. He mustn't give her the chance to retaliate.
The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the door, accompanied by an urgent call, "Young madam, quickly go and see the old master. The old master doesn't seem to be able to make it!"
Ever since Shangguan Wan had chased Wu Xiaofei and her women away, she had gained the title of Young Lady.
Shangguan Wan was not too surprised to hear this, for a person like that, dying early was the good news for the commoners.
"Got it." He lazily replied, and with the help of Jun Yao, he put on his clothes and walked towards the courtyard where Master Wu lived.
"Did you call the young master?" Shangguan Wan turned to the servant girl behind her who was speaking to her.
"Also …" "Not yet …"
"No?" Shangguan Wan's eyes suddenly lit up in suspicion. I'm not calling me a son when I'm sick, but an outsider instead. Hehe, the Wu family's father and son are indeed interesting.
"Yes." The servant girl timidly replied. The night was originally slightly cold, but sweat was seeping out of the servant girl's forehead. Let's just assume that she had run too fast.
Shangguan Wan had noticed things that she should not have noticed, and had also noticed things that she should have noticed.
The few of them hurriedly walked under the moonlight.
Seemingly sensing the strangeness, she whispered, "Master, I'm afraid that you've come back hungry. I'll go to the kitchen and make something for you."
"Yes." Shangguan Wan nodded.
It was hard to be so meticulous for this girl. It did save a lot of effort to have her by his side.
Because Master Wu was sick, Shangguan Wan purposely placed him in a relatively secluded courtyard. He couldn't be taught in a noisy place.
When they arrived at the door, the servant girl reported in a low voice, "Master, the young madam is here."
A few candles were burning in the room. In the old Wu Mansion, the candles were not as dim as they used to be. They were basically brightly lit, unlike the old days.
However, Old Master Wu didn't think so. This woman must have made a profit. The Wu family's wealth must have been taken away by this unknown woman.
"Cough, cough, cough …" "Cough, cough, cough …" A few violent coughs came from the room, as if he wanted to cough out his heart and lungs. He was old and sick, and with the addition of having a useless son, it was difficult for him to be in good health.
"Let her in." The hoarse voice had lost all of its usual dignity.
Shangguan Wan walked in fearlessly.
The old man on the bed had indeed lost a lot of weight, but it wasn't to the point of being unbearable. It seemed like he was exaggerating on purpose.
"Master is severely ill, why didn't you call me here at night?" Shangguan Wan sat casually on the stool, lifting a kettle to pour some tea into a porcelain cup. Along the way, she couldn't help but feel parched.
"Witch, you're still putting on an act even now!" "Cough, cough, cough …" The first few sentences were quite impressive, but the last few words revealed that he was completely exhausted.
"Demoness?" Shangguan Wan carefully mulled over these two words, "Is there any difference between a human and a demon?" There is a difference between good and bad people, and there is also a difference between demons. "
Some people are worse off than monsters.
"So you admit it?" Old Master Wu struggled to get up from the bed, his voice trembling.
Shangguan Wan sipped a few mouthfuls of tea, "You have to have proof that I'm a demon. Considering that you're the young master's father, I'll be merciful and not go to the government to accuse you of framing someone."
Every single person in the mortal world seemed to have a special characteristic, which was to attribute the fact that they were not her match to her to her own demoness. Indeed, if she did not use any spells, it would be difficult to accomplish the entire task, but the real reason was because of the wisdom in her head.
Thinking back, when Wu Dan was unable to snatch Nangong Yu away, she also sent a Daoist to capture him. Hehe, where did she get the confidence to call herself a demon? Thinking about it, he must have been provoked by some people, so he didn't need to care about who those people were anymore. Everything was over now.
Old Master Wu was so angry that he almost vomited blood. What a sharp tongued demoness!
"You! You seduced my son, causing the destruction of my family, you are a scourge! Monster! I curse you to die a horrible death! " Old Master Wu vented all the resentment in his heart in one breath.
Shangguan Wan had heard too much from the insults, so she did not mind. Her enemies had all scolded her in such a manner, and she had survived it all.
"Was the destruction of the family caused by me?" The woman smiled contemptuously as she played with the porcelain cup in her hand. A drop of tea flowed down the cup, "What a joke!" Of course, how could a 'noble' like you tolerate such a disgraceful matter in the manor? "It was you, not me, who caused the destruction of the Wu Residence."
"You!"
"Do you need me to help you recall what you told me?" Shangguan Wan purposely imitated Master Wu's original tone, "That pair of adulterers, shoot for your father."
Yes, you did well, it's practically the same. You shook that frail person back onto the bed and laid him down, "You are the Bane … "Bane …"
Only then did Shangguan Wan get up, she slowly walked to the bedside, lowering her eyes and staring at the cunning man, "I also want to remind you that I didn't seduce your son, he stole me back. If you feel wronged, then find him to settle the score."
Zhou Yu beat up Huang Ji, one was willing to take a beating while the other was willing to take it. Hehe, so everything can't be blamed on her, only that his son is too greedy.
Wu Haoyuan panted heavily, as if he wouldn't be able to catch his breath in the next moment.
