Yu Atu was stopped by Li Yan and had to turn back to the yard. At this time, a girl had already run into the house to announce the spring equinox. She quickly walked out with Hongxing and Lutao.
"Cousin..." As soon as he saw the Spring Equinox appearing in front of him, Yu Atu's legs softened and he knelt down.
Shi Chunfen looked at her coldly. As early as when she took Weng Zhenhai to find Chu Shun, she had already discovered that Yu Atu was not outside the yard.
Yu Atu probably didn't expect that the time she carefully selected to meet Chu Quan coincided with the time when Shi Chunquin came to see Chu Shun. This exposed her plan in advance. No matter what excuse she found, it would be difficult to gain time.
Equinox trust.
Shi Chunfen looked at her calmly, because he had already suspected Yu Atu, so he didn't feel so uncomfortable at this moment.
She was just a little disappointed. How could there be someone in this world who couldn't cover herself up?
"Where have you gone?" Shi Chunquin looked at her and asked calmly.
Yu Atu's eyes flashed, and she begged: "Cousin, can you stop asking me where I went?"
In the past, if Shi Chunquin had seen her looking pitiful, she might not have asked any more questions, but today was different. She specially set up the place where she would interrogate Yu Usagi in the yard, just to prevent herself from having trouble.
There is room for her to be soft-hearted. She wants everyone to see what her good cousin has done, and she also wants them to know that she will no longer be manipulated by others.
"You don't have to say it." Shi Chunfen said calmly: "Then just keep kneeling here until you say it."
With that said, she made a gesture to turn around and leave.
Yu Atu was stunned for a moment, and quickly reached out to hug her legs, "No, cousin, I said... I said that's all!"
Seeing that she had calmed down, Shi Chunfen glanced at Li Yan and signaled the other party to step forward and pull Yu Atu away. Then he walked to the side and sat down in the shade, leaving Yu Atu to kneel in the hot sun alone.
He spoke slowly, "Tell me."
Seeing her leisurely and contented look, Yu Atu's heart suddenly became cold, and he completely lost the courage to lie.
She rolled her eyes and said quickly: "I'm going to find the third master."
"Oh?" Shi Chunfen raised his eyebrows and looked at her. As for Yu Atu's whereabouts, as early as the moment she walked out of the yard of the second room, she was already being targeted by the people sent by Shi Chunfen. The second room came.
There were only a few people there, and it was obvious who Yu Atu was looking for, but Shi Chunquin didn't expect that she would tell the truth to him so quickly, "Why are you looking for him?"
Yu Atu lowered his head and said nothing.
Shi Chunfen stared at the wounds on her face and asked, "Did he beat you like this?"
Yu Atu covered her cheeks and nodded in embarrassment, "The fourth master has always been very popular in the Chu family. After thinking about it, the only one who would poison him was the third master, so I ran to find him, hoping that he would
I was able to hand over the antidote, but I didn’t expect that I would be beaten by him instead.”
Is it for Arun again?
Shi Chunfen's eyes darkened. She didn't expect that Yu Atu would dare to admit her feelings for Chu Run in front of everyone. Did she not even want her reputation?
There was an uproar all around. Except for Hongxing and Lutao, who had known Yu Atu's thoughts about Chu Run for a long time, all the servants in the courtyard, including Li Yan, showed their shock to varying degrees.
I have never seen anyone who has feelings for the young master say it so carelessly. It is really shameless.
As if she didn't see the reactions of the people around her, Yu Atu cried and begged Shi Chunquin: "Cousin, the fourth master's poison must have been given by the third master, otherwise he wouldn't be so guilty. I beg you to force him quickly."
He took out the antidote, and now only he can save the Fourth Master!"
She cried sincerely, as if she was really acting for the sake of Chu Run's life and death, and it didn't look like there was any conspiracy.
At least when Shi Chunfen saw her desperate look, his heart softened, "You get up first and then talk."
She stretched out her hand to help Yu Atu up, with pity in her eyes, "Silly girl, how can you act on such a thing without permission? Let alone no evidence, even if you really find evidence, it's easy for a girl like you
You would have been silenced by him, but now he is willing to let you out alive, so thank God."
Yu Atu stood up twitchingly. Hearing this, his body froze, and he was afraid and said: "Isn't it possible? In broad daylight, he will not lose his royal power."
"That's impossible to say." Shi Chunfen took out a silk handkerchief and wiped her tears, "If it's really like what you said, he dared to poison his own brother, then what's the point of killing you?
Weird? It would be really weird to let you come back alive instead!"
Her words were full of teasing, which made Yu Utu feel uneasy. I wonder if it was her misunderstanding. She always felt that Shi Chunquin was testing her, rather than really believing her.
Yu Atu pulled his lips and smiled coquettishly, "Maybe he just knew that I couldn't do anything to him, so he let me go so easily..."
Shi Chunfen raised his eyebrows slightly and said nothing.
She put the silk handkerchief that wiped Yu Atu's tears back into her sleeve slowly and slowly. It was a simple action, but Yu Atu was shocked to see that something that originally belonged to her was suddenly taken away.
It has nothing to do with her anymore.
Yu Atu couldn't help but stretched out his hand to grab Shi Chunfen's sleeve and begged: "No matter what, the poison in Fourth Master's body cannot be delayed any longer. Cousin, I beg you, please help him!"
Shi Chunfen paused, raised his hand to push Yu Atu's hand away, and said calmly: "When I picked you up yesterday, do you remember what you promised me?"
Yu Atu was stunned for a moment, and her body began to tremble, "Cousin, I..."
Shi Chunfen raised his hand to interrupt her and said indifferently: "Although you did these things because you were too nervous, Arun, but when you did these things, you never thought about my situation at all. You have always been
I hope I can stand with you, but Usagi...ever since you entered the Chu family, have you ever truly stood with me?"
"No, cousin, it's not like that..." Yu Atu panicked and explained at a loss: "I didn't want to hurt you, I just wanted to save the Fourth Master."
The more she explained, the more disappointed Shi Chunquin became.
Because she knew that the other party tried so hard to explain, not because he was afraid of her being sad, but because he wanted to stay in the Chu family and continue to fight for Chu Run's survival.
Maybe it's not for Chu Run, but just for herself.
But no matter who it was for, it was never for her.
She brought Yu Atu into the Chu family under pressure, and privately forgave him countless times, but her forgiveness and defense did not earn him any gratitude. She really didn't know what she should do to help everyone.
