Not far away, Ye Ziru kept glancing at Ye Yunzi, her expression equally grim. Despite the explanation given by the Marquis's Mansion, she still felt uneasy. Why did the man die at that very moment? And just when she was planning to deal with Ye Yunzi?

"Ye Yunzi..." she whispered to herself.

Looking at Ye Yunzi from a distance, her face is as tranquil as a painting. No matter when or where she is, she is always the most dazzling presence in the crowd, captivating people.

"If she was the one who did it, how could she remain so calm? No, it's impossible. Even if Ye Yunzi's personality changed drastically, she was just a girl in the boudoir. How could she kill someone?" Ye Ziru was wavering in her heart. When she heard the news of the man's sudden death, she was also shocked. How could Ye Yunzi have the ability to kill someone?

……

As the situation calmed down, Ye Ziru calmed down and felt that something was wrong. She was too impulsive just now. Now, Ye Yunzi must have guessed that it was her plan and her relationship with that man...

Ye Ziru's face turned pale instantly. The man was dead, and being associated with him would damage her reputation. She couldn't let herself get involved in this matter!

……

"Everyone, a banquet is awaiting you at Meitai Pavilion. Please go there. The plum blossoms there are in full bloom and the fragrance is overwhelming. It's a great place to drink and enjoy the scenery." Su Yu invited again, with a sense of ease and joy in his words.

The Plum Terrace Pavilion in the Marquis' Mansion was specially built to celebrate the old lady's 80th birthday. Since the old lady was crazy about plum blossoms when she was young, the Prime Minister simply moved a thousand plum trees and built a majestic high platform. Standing on the platform, one can see the sea of ​​flowers at a glance. It is so refreshing and beautiful.

Ye Yunzi had heard of it before, and she was itching to go there. She had stepped on the Plum Blossom Terrace before, but unfortunately she was blind and could only smell the fragrance, and she had no chance to see the sea of ​​flowers again, which was a great regret in her heart. This time, she followed the crowd and stepped onto the Plum Blossom Terrace again. The suddenly open scenery in front of her made her stunned.

"Spring is in full swing in the capital, and flowers are surging like the tide of the sea!" The beautiful scenery, the intoxicating fragrance, the elegant fragrance spreads wherever the breeze blows, and taking a deep breath is like stepping into the fairyland.

Ye Yunzi was fascinated by the scene. Her big black and white eyes sparkled with intelligence and a faint smile hung on the corners of her mouth. She seemed to have merged into this fairyland and was completely immersed in it.

She didn't realize that her appearance had already attracted many eyes.

In the sunlight, her white dress was even more dazzling, reflecting her skin as white as snow and her eyes as picturesque. Occasionally, a few pink petals danced in the wind, gently spinning around her, as if a fairy from heaven had descended to earth.

"What a stunning beauty!" someone couldn't help but admire.

Not far away, the male guests were sitting around the banquet, looking up at the sea of ​​flowers. Naturally, they also noticed Ye Yunzi standing quietly beside the lace.

"The scenery is beautiful, the poetry is wonderful, and the person is even more wonderful." Baili Yan whispered. It was rare for a woman to be praised like this. When the people around heard it, their expressions varied, and their eyes were full of inquiry.

It would be fine if anyone else said this, but it came from the mouth of the Seventh Prince Baili Yan. As a distinguished member of the royal family, he has reached the age of being a concubine. Many famous families are eyeing him covetously, hoping to push their daughters to become phoenixes, soaring into the sky, and bringing glory to the family. Now, the Seventh Prince seems to favor Miss Ye.

This made some of the sons of the noble families feel troubled. Their sisters were also beautiful, so how could they easily admit defeat? But when they looked at the beauties in the capital, especially the chief beauty Su Yu, the other beauties looked dull. They secretly sighed and complained that their sisters were not outstanding enough.

In the past, they may have never paid attention to Miss Ye, but today, Miss Ye is not only beautiful, but also heroic and unique in her talent display, which makes people feel good about her. It is reasonable for the Seventh Prince to be attracted to her.

"Indeed, there are few women like this in the world."

Just as everyone was immersed in it, a sudden noise broke the joy.

Shen Siyan's face was as dark as water. He was not a man with many expressions, and at this moment he was even more gloomy and frightening. His icy eyes seemed to be able to pierce through one's soul.

Everyone shut up immediately, not even daring to breathe. The pressure surrounding Shen Siyan was so heavy that it was almost suffocating.

Baili Yan looked at Shen Siyan. The air seemed to be frozen. The surroundings were quiet, with only the whispers of the wind blowing gently.

"Hahaha..." Unexpectedly, Baili Yan suddenly burst into laughter, patting Shen Siyan's shoulder while laughing, and laughed so hard that his waist couldn't straighten up. "Siyan, Siyan, you have a stern face all day long, as if you have a sign saying 'Keep Out', no girl would dare to get close to you!"

Shen Siyan coughed lightly, his expression calmed down, and his aura instantly subsided. Just now, he himself didn't understand why he was so angry. That woman is not someone these people can talk about casually! She is such a dazzling existence, these people... who is worthy of her!

"It's such a waste of your good-looking face. If you just beckon my little finger, so many people will line up to get close to you... In terms of handsomeness and outstanding looks in the capital, no one can compare to you." Baili Yan said as he reached out to touch Shen Siyan's face.

Shen Siyan raised his eyes, grabbed the seventh prince's wrist, and held it tightly, not moving at all.

"..."

Then, he smiled slightly, lowered his eyelids, and the coldness in his eyes quietly receded, just like winter snow meeting spring sun, and a hint of warmth appeared in his deep eyes. He was so charming that it was hard to extricate oneself from him.

When the women in the distance saw this, they blushed and were too embarrassed to watch any further.

Shen Siyan let go of his hand, lowered his voice, and said coldly: "There is no need for me to bend my fingers. Even a smile is enough to attract everyone's attention."

"Including her?" Baili Yan looked over and his eyes fell on where Ye Yunzi was standing.

Shen Siyan was slightly stunned, then fell silent. Ye Yunzi's eyes were clear and bright at this moment, and she looked at him calmly, as if he was just an ordinary person passing by, so indifferent.

In Ye Yunzi's eyes, a person's appearance is just a shell, and after death, everything will return to dust, so there is no need to worry too much about it.

"Oh, this matter is hard to say." Shen Siyan said slowly.

"Hey, come on, cheers! This plum wine is the treasure of the Xiangfu, I got a jar specially, let's drink it!" Baili Yan filled the bowl with wine. The only one who could drink with him at the same table was Shen Siyan, and the others could only watch, and no one dared to come over.

……

On the other side, no one noticed that Ye Ziru was missing.

In fact, when everyone moved from the main hall to the Plum Blossom Terrace, Ye Ziru was secretly asked by the servants of the mansion to move somewhere else.

Ye Ziru was holding a handkerchief and her face was as white as a piece of paper.

A cold official stood in front of her, his eyes like a knife: "Miss Ye, let me ask you again, do you really not know that young master?"
