A Blessed Daughter: Chapter 517 It\'s just a play you acted
"Wei Qingwan, you don't need me to remind you if there are any issues between you and me. Given our relationship, why should I be willing to help you?" Wei Ruo asked.
“It was my sister who did something wrong in the past, and it was me who did not think I could do anything right against her. I hope that my sister will not forget the faults of others and can forgive me.” Wei Qingwan apologized again.
"I heard your apology, but I still don't intend to help you." Wei Ruo replied with an indifferent expression.
At this moment, Wei Qingwan's inner defense collapsed.
No matter how much psychological preparation she did before coming, she could no longer deal with it calmly when she saw Wei Qingruo humiliating herself like this.
“Sister, what else do you want from me? What else do you want me to do before you forgive me?” Wei Qingwan pursed her lips and asked Wei Ruo with red eyes and a trembling voice.
"What you want is your business, and my choice not to forgive is also my business." Wei Ruo replied.
“I’ve already knelt down here to apologize to you for letting you trample my self-esteem under your feet. Why can’t you calm down?”
"What? If you apologize, I will forgive you?" Wei Ruo asked.
Wei Qingwan stared at Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo continued: "If you apologize sincerely, then be prepared that I will not forgive you. Apology is your way of expressing your regret and recognizing your mistakes, so you must be prepared for the other party not to accept the apology. Think that as long as If you apologize, I have to forgive you and then help you. That’s not an apology, it’s just a play you put on to achieve your own goals.”
Wei Ruo ruthlessly exposed Wei Qingwan.
Wei Qingwan’s face turned green and white in turns, and she looked really good-looking.
If this was the past, she would have responded to Wei Ruo, but today, she has not yet had an attack. She just stared at Wei Ruo with resentment in her eyes.
Wei Ruo looked at these resentful eyes and knew that his judgment was correct.
She had almost finished watching the show, and nothing happened that surprised her.
So Wei Ruo stood up and waved his hand: "Send King Yu's concubine away."
Wei Qingwan was still dazed, and suddenly she was shocked when she heard that Wei wanted to drive her away.
"Sister!" Wei Qingwan called Wei Ruo, "Sister, listen to me! If you help me, you are also helping yourself. Prince Rui will not live long. You need someone to rely on in the future! I can help you, Prince Yu can help your…"
Wei Ruo couldn't hear what she said next.
Lin Fang and another maid "invited" Wei Qingwan out of Songzhuyuan.

Since King Rui and his wife presented Shenwu cannons and thunderbolts, the emperor began to consider selecting one of the princes to be responsible for the mass production of copper cannons and thunderbolts. This caused a dispute between King Yu's faction and King Jing's faction in the court.
Both sides held their own opinions and had a heated argument in the morning for several days in a row.
Both King Yu and King Jing wanted to win the task of supervising the construction of cannons and thunderbolt shells. For them, this was not only an excellent opportunity for meritorious service, but also a good opportunity for them to take control of the Ministry of Works.
In addition, the firearms to be made this time are all very powerful. Whoever can take the technology of making these firearms into their own hands will have more initiative.
However, the emperor has not made a decision for a long time, leaving everyone confused.
So, in addition to arguing in the court, both King Yu and King Jing sent greeting cards to Prince Rui's Mansion.
Wei Jin also replied that he was in poor health and could not see guests.
He continued to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, letting King Jing and King Yu's men fight to the death. A few days later, the corruption and bribery case of Wen Chong, a cabinet scholar, came out. The person who reported it was a good concubine in Master Wen's house. Because she was bullied by Mrs. Wen and almost died, she went to the government to sue Mrs. Wen for troubling human life. She was a good concubine. , do not kill at will.
It was originally just a small matter of competing for favor between wives and concubines, but who would have thought that this trial would actually lead to a case of corruption and bribery.
And this Master Wen was Qi Yansong's confidant and a supporter of King Yu. His corruption case implicated King Yu.
The emperor denounced King Yu in the morning court, and even ordered the Inspectorate to investigate the matter thoroughly and investigate the matter thoroughly.
When something happened at this juncture, people had to suspect that someone was behind the scenes, and the most likely person was King Jing.
In fact, the person who did this was indeed Chu Lan.
Chu Lan has already made plans over the years. On the surface, the situation is overwhelmingly in favor of King Yu. However, if he can become the final winner and ascend to the throne in the original work, he must have had the chips in hand early.
Just when these chips will be released depends on how the situation changes.
It seems that this competition made Chu Lan feel that he must do something to stabilize himself.
Although King Yu was caught off guard, he did not admit defeat in vain.
They also gave Chu Lan a counterattack and revealed that the son of the left servant of the Ministry of Finance was drinking, causing trouble and injuring people. Although they could not directly hurt Chu Lan, there was still a chance for Chu Lan to lose a general.
In addition, the previous investigation on the attack on King Rui also gained some insights.
The Inspector Zuodu Yushi reported to the Emperor that although the weapons used by the black-clad assassins who raided King Rui were not clearly marked, it was found that the forging workshop was the most famous forging shop in the east of the city. This forging shop does not sell privately to civilians. Weapons are only provided to a few families who have the power to set up private military forces, including the Qi family.
This investigation result once again made the emperor suspicious of Qi Yansong and King Yu.
So the emperor, who had great trust in Qi Yansong, changed his previous attitude and withdrew many of the privileges given to Qi Yansong. Many things that were originally handled by Qi Yansong were changed to be handled by himself.
Qi Yansong, who knew that he had never made such an arrangement, suspected that Chu Lan was setting the blame on him, in order to suppress himself and King Yu's faction.
At this point, the relationship between King Yu’s faction and King Jing’s faction was completely in dire straits.
After a month of tossing about this, the emperor was extremely annoyed. Without waiting for the final results of the investigation of several cases, he handed over the task of supervising the construction of Shenwu cannons and thunderbolts to the King of Qin, who had never had any sense of existence.
King Xingsan of Qin was older than King Yu and King Jing. However, he was lame since he was a child. In addition, his mother was born as a palace maid, and her abilities in all aspects were really not outstanding. When she was studying in the Imperial College, she did not perform well, so she never had a sense of existence.
This time I got a good job for nothing and got a big deal.
But King Yu and King Jing suffered both losses.
Wei Ruo learned all this information from Wei Jinyi and Lin Fang.
These things are quite interesting to hear as stories.
“As expected, they are all thousand-year-old foxes.” Wei Ruo commented while pinching her chin.
Then he raised his eyes and glanced at Wei Jinyi in front of him, and added: "You too."
It was very rare for Wei Jin to be in Wei Ruo's room today. Of course, Wei Ruo sent someone to invite him over.
Wei Jin, who was called a thousand-year-old fox by Wei Ruo, could not refute and just looked at Wei Ruo quietly.
