The Vicious Princess Overturns the World

Chapter 4: Finish Him Off





She would never expect that the allegedly weak Crown Prince has such tenderness. Pitifully, he died too early in his previous life. There isn\'t record of his life even in historical books.


While Furong is dressing her up at her order, Li Wanrou looks at herself in the mirror. Her cold eyes are as deep and serene as an ancient well, Without the innocent look that a rich family\'s daughter should have. Seeing this, she unexpectedly curves her lips and smiles.


Seeing that her master, Miss Li Wanrou, is in good mood, Furong takes the opportunity to remind her: "A grand Spring Feast is to be held in the Mansion today and somebodies of the capital city are all coming to the feast. It is such a big occasion that you should not miss it though you are not quite yourself today.


After having rested for a few days I should have to see the damned first madam and Li Shifu, thought Li Wanrou, and it is such a big occasion today that even Ouyang Rongji might come.


Having changed into a green gauze skirt that she favors, Li Wanrou smiles and says: "Let\'s go."


With flowers in bloom, spring is very much in the air. Approaching the garden, Li Wanrou suddenly hears a voice and she freezes.


The voice is so soft and gentle that any man would be melted on hearing it. However, intense hatred rises in her when Li Wanrou hears the voice.


It is Li Shifu who is talking!


Li Wanrou suddenly pushes Furong into the rockery nearby and she herself manages to squeeze inside too, trying to peep through the crevice to see what is on in the garden.


Li Shifu is sitting in the pavilion, smiling and talking. The man sitting opposite her has lustful eyes and disgusting smiles on his pale face.


All of a sudden, Li Wanrou remembers that the man is Qin Qianshan, the legitimate son in the Mansion, and a kin nephew of the first madam. He idles all day long, doing nothing but going between brothels and pubs and there is a scandal that he has made a brothel girl pregnant. He is merely good for nothing!


"Cousin, you may have seen my half-blooded sister Li Wanrou. Although she couldn\'t be counted as an extraordinary beauty, she is still young and cute, which common girls fail to match. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for you to get her!"


Qin Qianshan seems diffident. It is true that he really wants to have Li Wanrou, who must have turned into a beauty no less than his cousin Li Shifu, for she had a good face when she was in her childhood. However, he becomes nervous at the thought of the stern face of the prime minister.


"Once a girl loses her own chastity, she can do nothing but has to obey you. And then, Father would allow make her a concubine for you for the sake of face. What on earth are you afraid of?"


Li Shifu looks at Qin with a sneer and feels contemptuous in her heart. She would not pay any attention to her useless cousin if it were not for getting rid of Li Wanrou who is such an obtrusive trouble!


She takes out a handkerchief from her sleeve and waves it. With a smile of triumph on her small face she says: "This is her personal handkerchief, which is embroidered with her name. When the right time comes, you can bring it out in public and say that you two have already privately pledged to marry, and no one will doubt it."


Qin Qianshan is actually a lecher. Smelling the fragrance on the handkerchief, he promptly grabs it into his hand and smells it with his nose greedily.


How sweet it is! Li Wanrou must be a ravishing beauty!


With a cunning, cruel and eager air in his eyes, he nods his head: "Great! Don\'t worry, cousin, it has always been easy for me to seduce women! See, with a little use of this handkerchief in my hand, it is enough to make the most virtuous woman beg me to possess her!"


He touches the jade bottle in his hand. This is Ecstasy Incense often used in brothel. Once on bed, nobody can escape from his hand!


Li Wanrou hears their dialogue clearly in the rockery. Her sneer on the mouth becomes more and more gloomy, which makes Furong worried and nervous.


"Miss, we had better go back... "


"I sit in my courtyard, but the disaster can come from nowhere. Even if I can avoid him this time, how long can I hide?" Li Wanrou sighs.


Li Wanrou does not come out of the rockery until Li Shifu leaves. She looks around, finding no one there, and walks towards Qin Qianshan with confidence.


Wearing a gentle and charming smile, she looks more enchanting with her pretty face and delicate skin.


Qin Qianshan glances at her and can\'t move his eyes any more. His heart beats faster and he calls out passionately: "Sister! Why are you here?"


Her little face has turned into a pretty one as expected, and she is no less beautiful than his cousin Li Shifu. Besides, her temperament is pure and cold, which is rather different from anyone else.


"Furong!" Li Wanrou timidly hides behind Furong and bends her head. Her earlobes are all red, which seems to show her shyness.


Fierce-browed, Furong has no option but shouts out loudly, "Who are you? This is an inner courtyard where men are forbidden!"


Qin Qianshan is too stunned to speak at first, then he realizes that this timid and shy cousin does not recognize him, so he wears a friendly smile and says: "I am your cousin Qin Qianshan."


He secretively opens the jade bottle and pours some powder into his palm. Just before he is about to carry out his intrigue, Li Wanrou starts to speak sweetly: "It\'s you, my cousin! I am sorry for what I did just now. Would you please give me a chance to make up for it by showing you around the Mansion since you are not very familiar with the place?"


Her soft voice almost melts his heart and he is more than happy to agree. He says with a smile: "Thanks for your kind help."


When they approach the carp pond, Li Wanrou suddenly points to the center of the pood and exclaims: "Who is that there?"


Looking in the direction of her finger, Qin Qiangshan moves close to Li Wanrou, and all of a sudden, he is pushed from the back into the water with high splashes.


The carp pond is too deep for him to touch the bottom. Qin struggles a few times and falls headlong. Soon the dead body rises to the surface.


Furong bends her head, not daring to look at the young lady. She nervously asks, "Miss, we\'re killing him! It will be found out! How about the corpse...?"


"Go and get some hemp ropes! Be quick, and don\'t let anyone see you!"


Flustered, Furong goes to look for ropes and Li Wanrou gets some heavy stones back.


When Furong gets the ropes back, Li Wanrou immediately takes off her shoes and takes the stone in her arms and then dives into the water.


She ties the stones to the feet of Qin Qiangshan with the ropes, and seeing that the body sinks into the deep water without any trace, Li Wanrou then goes up to the surface of the water totally relieved.


Furong is so frightened that her face turns pale.

Today she just gets to know that the seemingly effeminate lady is a real hard-ass, whose disposition is incomparable.


She clenches her teeth and swears to herself she would rather die than betray her. After that, the two quickly go back to their own rooms to change out of their wet clothes and stay there quietly.


Li Wanrrou then goes on to read her medical book with a placid face. There is no sign of panic on her face for killing a man just now. However, Furong is so scared that she becomes restless.


"Do you think that I\'m scary?"


Furong shudders and jerks back to herself. Glancing at Li Wanrou\'s gentle face, she feels more flustered and says tremblingly, "No!"


"If I hadn\'t taken my own initiative, their intrigue would have been successful, and I would have been utterly discredited and seen as an unscrupulous slut, who would either die or suffer great pains! Qin Qianshan\'s death is absolutely due to his own fault! Besides, we need not be afraid, since the dead body could not be found, no one will suspect that he is dead."


In her previous life, she had been a good person for too long and she didn\'t know that good people often ended most miserably until she died. She was shut up in the death jail, sexually harassed wantonly and excruciated repeatedly. In the end no one sympathized with her, and with her dead body not buried decently and no peace in death. She has sworn to pay off old scores, so what if she commits murder?


At noon.


Li Wanrou has just finished her lunch when she hears a commotion in the courtyard, as if someone were about to break in, only to be stopped by Furong.


"Everyone has come to the Spring Feast except my sister. I am very worried about her health condition and come to visit. You don\'t have to stop me."


It is Li Shifu\'s voice. There is a deep concern on her face but a subtle hint of happiness in her voice.


Unable to stop her, Furong could only watch the First Young Lady make her way straightly to the door and gently push the door open. Before going into the room, she deliberately takes a step back in order for those behind her to see the inside of the room clearly.


"It\'s very kind of you to come to see me, my dear sister! I am very sorry for not being able to get up to greet you due to my poor health."


Li Wanrou is lying on bed, feeble and pale, with sweat on her forehead. It seems that her health is as poor as it is said.


There are quite a few young ladies coming with Li Shifu, who look at Li Wanrou with different eyes, some sympathy, helplessness, disregard and some schadenfreude.
