Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 71
Chapter 071 Conspiracy To Revive
“Miss Lan, stop!”
Lan Shuya quickly walked out of the courtyard door. She heard someone calling out to her from behind. She turned around and saw that the woman behind her was the person beside Yun Xiao. She stood up quietly.
She couldn’t help but think in her heart, perhaps it was because Yun Xiao couldn’t live up to her reputation, so she sent a maidservant to apologize to herself. Even though she was only a concubine daughter, she was still a woman from the official family in the end.
She watched as Chun Lin approached, her expression returning to normal. There was even a hint of mockery in her eyes, “What’s the matter?”
Chun Lin walked closer and bowed. “This servant pays respects to Miss Lan. My lady told this servant to give this cloak to her.” Just as she finished her sentence, she saw that Lan Shuya’s delicate face was already a little hideous. She coughed softly as if she didn’t see it. “Also, my lady said that she would invite Miss Lan to go and offer incense at the fifteenth day.”
When Lan Shuya heard this, the anger in her beautiful eyes became even more intense. She wanted to slap the maidservant back into her mouth, but she also knew that this place was the Cloud Mansion, not her own courtyard.
She took a deep breath and slowly calmed herself down. She personally took the cloak and handed it to Yu Tan. She softly said, “Thank you, cousin.”
Although she deliberately made her voice unrecognizable, the word Xie was bitten especially hard, revealing the unwillingness in her heart.
Seeing this, Chun Lin hurriedly and respectfully said, “This servant will definitely convey Miss Lan’s words to my girl.”
Lan Shuya snorted coldly. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly saw a few maids walk in. There were five maids in this line. Each maidservant held a tray in her hand. On the tray was a good cut of dog meat.
A trace of surprise flashed through her eyes. Suddenly, she remembered that Yun Xiao had said that the dog barking at Yun Mansion’s entrance was true.
Chun Lin looked around and saw that no one was staring at him. A strange look flashed in his eyes. “My family’s girl originally wanted to invite Miss Lan to stay behind to eat dog meat. Now Miss Lan has no more to eat. However, if Miss Lan wants, this servant can report to my family’s girl and ask my family’s girl to send some dog meat back to Miss Lan.”
Lan Shuya suddenly took a step back. Her eyes were filled with fear, and her gaze towards the Spring Forest was filled with a trace of inquiry. She took a deep breath and said, “Yu Tan, let’s go!”
Yun Xiao, from now on, I, Lan Shuya, will not be able to stand apart from you!
Lan Shuya was furious, and her footsteps unconsciously quickened. When she walked out of the Yun Mansion Gate and got into the carriage, the delicate makeup on her face became ferocious again, and the temperature in the carriage also dropped a few degrees.
Lan Shuya turned around angrily. Seeing Yu Tan following closely in, she waved her hand and a loud slap landed on her cheek.
Yu Tan felt a burning pain on her cheeks and immediately knelt down, not daring to plead for mercy.
As a personal maidservant, Yu Tan naturally knew how Lan Shuya looked when she was angry. The more she pleaded for mercy, the more punishment she would receive.
Lan Shuya slapped him, but she still didn’t feel angry. She waved her palm again and landed on Yu Tan’s other cheek.
These two slaps of hers were merciless, and Yu Tan’s face instantly turned red. She only knelt down tightly and did not dare to say a word.
Lan Shuya snorted coldly. Only then did she feel a little more comfortable in her heart. However, when her gaze shifted to the cloak in her hand, boundless anger flashed through her eyes!
She grabbed the cloak with one hand and was about to tear it to shreds. However, she did not expect that the cloak’s material was of excellent quality. She tore it a few times but still did not tear it apart.
Her cold eyes once again shifted to Yu Tan’s body. She extended her hand and slapped Yu Tan’s back a few times before letting out a sigh of relief.
She sat by the window and looked out at the gilded door of the Cloud Mansion. An indescribable hatred flashed through her eyes. Her hands were tightly clenched together. She must avenge this humiliation!
The carriage turned a corner and suddenly stopped. Lan Shuya was caught off guard and her forehead hit the carriage frame.
What she was most proud of was her appearance. Normally, she cherished it very much. She didn’t expect that she would be bruised. She covered her forehead and suppressed her anger for a day. Finally, she couldn’t hold on any longer. “How did you drive the car?”
After she finished speaking, she opened the carriage curtain and looked out. She saw two large men holding swords appear in front of the carriage. Then, they jumped onto the carriage shaft and beat the horse fiercely. The horse deviated from the previous path and sped forward.
The carriage suddenly accelerated, and Lan Shuya fell backwards unprepared, her head hitting the carriage frame again.
She covered her head with an indescribable sense of anxiety in her heart and winked at Yu Tan, “Go take a look.”
Although Yu Tan was scared, she had no choice but to listen to Lan Shuya’s instructions. She opened the curtain and saw two bright swords. She almost fainted. She forcefully took a deep breath and shouted, “Who are you? Where are you taking my girl? My girl is the second girl of the Lan family …”
Before she could finish her sentence, one of the burly men turned around and looked over. The sword in his hand struck her head and he fainted instantly. The burly man’s impatient voice sounded, “Be honest!”
Lan Shuya looked at Yu Tan who had fainted and felt that her heart was filled with fear. She had long since forgotten about Yunxiao.
The carriage sped away at an astonishing speed, and Lan Shuya’s nervous mood didn’t dare to say a single word.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped. Seeing this, Lan Shuya immediately lay down and pretended to faint.
When the curtain was opened, a big man saw that Lan Shuya had fainted from fright. He snorted coldly, “I didn’t expect that there would be such a face, but it’s useless.”
“That’s right. Hurry up and bring it back to us. We might be able to taste the taste of the Second Miss of the Lan Clan later.”
When Lan Shuya heard this, her face turned deathly pale. She immediately opened her eyes. Her watery eyes looked pitifully at the two men and forced herself to calm down. “Who are you? Why did you kidnap me? Did Yun Xiao want you to ruin my reputation?”
Seeing Lan Shuya’s current expression, the burly man felt his heart itch. “Hurry up and come down, or do you want us to carry you down?”
Lan Shuya’s lips trembled slightly. She glanced at Yu Tan, who was still unconscious, with a hint of hatred. “I’ll get out of the car myself.”
Not long after, Lan Shuya followed the two into a courtyard. This courtyard was extremely well-repaired and luxurious, but Lan Shuya did not have the interest to watch. She was worried about how she should escape.
Very quickly, she arrived at the door of a room. There was a maidservant dressed in a lake blue dress waiting outside. When she saw them, she let the two men go down first and snorted coldly, “The county princess is waiting for you inside.”
Lan Shuya did not know what county princess she could think of. The only county princess she could think of was county princess Hui Ning. But why would county princess Hui Ning use such a method to invite her here?
However, when she found out that the person looking for her was county princess Hui Ning, her heart finally calmed down.
When she pushed the door open and walked in, she saw a woman in a red dress sitting at the table, reading a book in her hand. Lan Shuya saw this dress and no longer doubted the identity of county princess Huining. County princess Huining always loved red skirts. This was something everyone knew. She respectfully bowed and said, “County princess, good day.”
County princess Huining heard the commotion and then raised her head to look at Lan Shuya. The corner of her mouth revealed a smile that was not a smile. She put down the book in her hand and said, “Sit down.”
Lan Shuya blinked slightly, “I wonder why the county princess is looking for me?”
County Lord Hui Ning scanned Lan Shuya for a while. In her previous life, this woman was Zhou Jingyan’s beloved concubine. It was indeed difficult for a woman to climb to such a position. It was enough to show that she had deep thoughts. Moreover, the annihilation of Yun Clan and Yun Xiao’s death were all found out because of this woman’s fraud.
Such a woman was a threat to him, but it was also a threat to Yun Xiao.
She had always kept Lan Shuya to lend her hand to get rid of Yun Xiao. “I wonder if Miss Lan is interested in making a deal with me?”
“What deal?” Lan Shuya listened attentively, but her eyes were filled with caution.
“I heard that you and Yun Xiao have had some conflicts recently. Are you interested in teaching Yun Xiao a lesson together with me?” County Lord Hui Ning stared at Lan Shuya as if he wanted to see her expression clearly.
When Lan Shuya heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. In just an instant, she concealed herself, “How can I say this?”
Although she deliberately concealed her hatred for Yun Xiao, she still couldn’t conceal the hatred in her heart.
“You only said yes or no.”
Lan Shuya hesitated for a while before she said, “Cousin has a smooth life, and her temperament is extremely unruly. She really should create some setbacks for her to adjust her temperament.” The implication was that he had already agreed.
County Lord Hui Ning sneered in his heart. He clearly hated Yunxiao to the bone, but he still had to pretend to be extremely kind. “What you said makes sense. Do you have a chance to be with Yunxiao in the near future?”
When Lan Shuya heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief, and her heart was filled with anticipation.
“Yes, but I have one condition.”
“What conditions?”
“I want the lives of those two big men!” She said these words loudly. The two of them almost ruined their appearances and could not be forgiven for saying anything.
County Lord Hui Ning’s expression carried a trace of inquiry before finally nodding his head, “Alright.” After she finished speaking, she told Lan Shuya her plan.
When Lan Shuya heard this, her eyes were filled with unconcealable joy. This method was very suitable for her.
The two of them continued to discuss their plans before Lan Shuya left.
When they reached the door, they saw the maidservant at the door. Beside her feet were two heads, obviously belonging to those two big men.
When Lan Shuya saw this, although her eyes were still filled with fear, the corners of her mouth had already revealed an extremely faint smile. However, there was not the slightest bit of warmth in her smile.
