Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 504

504 I’ll Help You (5)

Shen Miao lowered her eyes and suppressed the thousands of emotions in her eyes. Huangfu Hao looked generous and polite on the surface, but he was actually the most ruthless. This kind of ruthlessness was different from Fu Xiuyi’s ruthlessness. When she was in the State of Qin, there was once when Huangfu Hao was drunk and actually wanted to molest her. If not for Gu Yu protecting Shen Miao with her life, Shen Miao would probably be asked to hang herself to death by Fu Xiuyi after returning to Ming Qi. The Ming Qi Royal Family would not tolerate an unchaste empress.

Then, because Gu Yu offended Huangfu Hao, she was stabbed to death by his guard’s sword. Shen Miao would never forget that Huangfu Hao stabbed a few holes in the dead Gu Yu’s body with his sword. Blood kept flowing out, but Huangfu Hao ordered someone to throw Gu Yu’s corpse into the wolf pile.

She could not do anything to help her closest friend in the State of Qin, not even collecting Gu Yu’s corpse.

Shen Miao hated Huangfu Hao to the core, but she couldn’t make Huangfu Hao pay the price yet.

!!
Huangfu Hao’s gaze became more and more suspicious. The moment Shen Miao narrowed her eyes, he seemed to have sensed some hostility, making him feel a chill run down his spine. He did not understand why, but he instinctively wanted to find out.

Just as he was about to speak, Prince Rui suddenly turned his body to the side. He was extremely tall, and Shen Miao, who was petite, was completely blocked by him.

“Apparently, I came at the wrong time today.” Prince Rui glanced at Huangfu Hao and Princess Ming An. They could not see his expression clearly, but the two of them felt that his eyes were a little cold. He continued, “I’ll come by another day.”

Huangfu Hao wanted to persuade him to stay. The current situation was still unclear. No matter what, the State of Qin did not want to be enemies with the Daliang Dynasty. If Prince Rui, who represented the Daliang Dynasty, could show any signs of wanting to form an alliance with the State of Qin, the State of Qin would naturally be happy to see it happen. He thought that he could get closer to Prince Rui today, but he did not expect Princess Ming An to ruin this opportunity. He glared at Princess Ming An and said to Prince Rui, “My apology for ruining your mood. When Your Highness comes again next time, I will definitely treat you with the utmost cordiality.”

Prince Rui forced a smile. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly stopped and looked at Shen Miao with a faint smile. “Miss Shen, since you’re drenched, it’s better for you to return home early. Do you want me to give you a ride?”

Shen Miao took a deep breath and said with an amiable smile, “Thank you, Prince Rui.”

Huangfu Hao and Princess Ming An watched as the two of them left. Princess Ming An almost bit her lip open. She said, “Brother Crown Prince, that b*tch is seducing Prince Rui! She even pushed me into the water. We can’t let this matter rest!”

“Shut up, idiot.” Huangfu Hao glanced at her coldly and warned, “I’ll let you off today. If there’s a next time, I won’t be able to protect you if Father gets angry!” He turned around and left.

After being taught a lesson by Huangfu Hao, Princess Ming An did not dare to retort, but her hatred for Shen Miao deepened. Especially when Shen Miao left with Prince Rui, it made her feel like her heart was being cut by a knife. She had always been willful and selfish, but because of her beauty and wealth, she had never met a man of an equal status. It was not easy for her to have a man she liked, but he seemed to be biased towards Shen Miao. How could she tolerate it? Princess Ming An clenched her fists and said hatefully, “Shen Miao, I will definitely make you wish you were dead!”

Outside the mansion, Shen Miao’s carriage was still parked at the door. Seeing Shen Miao appear wearing an unfamiliar man’s coat, Mo Qing immediately became anxious and said, “Miss…”
