activa-t Chapter 315 Scare
Chapter 315 Scare
Everyone has come to Prince Jingyang's mansion, so she has to see him whether she wants to or not.
She just didn't want to see Shen Xi, not that she was afraid of seeing her.
Putting down the wolf-hair brush in his hand, Shen Tang stood up.
When Shen Tang didn't see Shen Xi, he left the yard. Still not seeing anyone, he simply walked towards the second gate.
It wasn't that she wanted to welcome Shen Xian, Shen Xian was not worthy. Shen Tang didn't want her to enter Chenxiangxuan, fearing that she would dirty the place.
When they reached the garden, they saw from afar the maid leading Shen Xi towards them.
Eyes facing each other.
The disgust in Shen Tang's eyes was undisguised.
Shen Xi was even more excited.
Walking over, Shen Xian said to Shen Tang, "Isn't it because Second Brother is in trouble and you're in a bad mood and unwell? Why did you come out to greet me?"
The word "welcome" was pronounced with extra emphasis.
Shen Tang didn't bother to pay attention. "I want to know, what's the matter? Princess Qi is pregnant, but she still has to come to the Jingyang Palace to see me?"
Shen Xian said angrily, "Stop pretending with me!"
Shen Tang said, "If you don't tell me, I'll have the maid send you away."
"you!"
Shen Xian was so angry that her back teeth hurt.
She glared at Shen Tang, "Don't think I don't know. It was you who had my mother's hair cut off and my father's legs broken!"
The maid who led the way stood aside and did not leave. When she heard this, she shuddered all over.
No wonder Princess Qi was so angry. Could it really be the Crown Prince’s wife who did it?
Fearing that she would be silenced if she knew too much, the maid quickly withdrew.
Seeing Shen Xiang so furious that she almost wanted to skin her alive, Shen Tang was surprised for a moment, then laughed, "Second Aunt had her hair shaved off, and Second Uncle had his legs broken? I'm astonished that Princess Qi came to tell me this good news in person."
Shen Xian was so angry that smoke was coming out of her head and her lower abdomen was aching. "Don't you dare to take responsibility for your actions? You sent people to do such a thing, but you dare not admit it!"
Shen Tang chuckled, "If Princess Qi wants to believe that it was me, she can send people to the Dali Temple or the Ministry of Justice to file a complaint, bring me to justice, and avenge my uncle and aunt. Why bother to come and provoke me?"
There is no evidence. Even if we know that she did it, what can we do?
Just like she knew that her eldest brother got lost at the Lantern Festival that year and it was the second wife's fault, but she had no evidence and could not do anything to the second wife.
She suffered the pain of having no evidence, and the second wife had to swallow the pain too.
No matter how Shen Xian tried to provoke him, Shen Tang refused to admit it. Shen Xian's fist was like hitting cotton, which was of no use except making herself very angry.
Shen Xian said, "You didn't do it. Are you threatening me and not letting me see my grandmother?!"
Shen Tang said, "Not only did Princess Qi not appreciate my kindness, but she came to my house to demand an explanation."
"You mean well?" Shen Xian gritted her teeth in anger.
Shen Tang said, "The Princess of Qi is pregnant, and your grandmother is ill. Aren't you afraid that the disease will be passed on to you and affect the fetus in your womb?"
Shen Xi came to force Shen Tang to admit that it was she who sent people to the Shen Mansion to cut off the Second Wife's hair and break the Second Master's legs, but Shen Tang not only refused to admit it, but also made his words so flawless that she could not find any loopholes. She was so angry but had no idea what to do.
Shen Xian refused to give up and continued, "Second brother's accident has nothing to do with me and the Second House! Why are you taking your anger out on me?"
Shen Tang asked, "Since it has nothing to do with the Second House, why do you suspect I was the one who did it when something happened to the Second House? Do I have such a deep hatred for the Second House?"
It would be strange if there weren’t any!
Although everyone in Kyoto knew about the Second Wife's substitution, Shen Xi was unwilling to repeat it herself.
Knowing that today's trip was in vain and that she couldn't get any useful information out of Shen Tang, Shen Ying was furious.
Shen Xian said, "You can deny it, but you'd better not let anyone get any evidence!"
The corners of Shen Tang's mouth curved up. "If Princess Qi has the energy, she should send more people to protect Second Uncle and Second Aunt. They've already been broken into the house and their legs have been broken. It would be easy to kill them."
Under Shen Xiyun's sleeves, her neatly trimmed nails dug into her flesh.
She threw her sleeves and turned to leave.
Seeing Shen Xi coming in angrily and leaving in a rage, Shen Tang's mood was even brighter than the sun above his head.
Ginkgo stood aside, tugged at Shen Tang's sleeve, and gestured for her to look at the rockery beside her.
There is a hint of green on the rockery, which is made of high-quality cloud gauze material.
Shen Xian provoked Shen Tang everywhere, but she refused to admit it, just to prevent someone from eavesdropping. The Jingyang Palace was not united in opinion. Concubine Jiang and the second and fourth rooms were all Concubine Ye's people. If she really fell into Shen Xian's trap and admitted that she was the one who sent someone to break the second master's leg, she would definitely sue the emperor. With people from the Jingyang Palace as witnesses, the emperor would punish her even if he favored Xie Guimo.
Her reputation would also be in tatters.
Shen Tang would definitely not rush into an argument about something that would create hidden dangers for himself. As I said before, if Shen Ying had evidence, she could go to the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice to sue her. If she didn't have evidence, she could just keep it to herself.
Shen Tang shook his head at Ginkgo, and the master and servant turned around and walked back. However, when they passed the rockery, Shen Tang cried out, "Ah!" "There's a snake!"
Before she finished speaking, the two people who were eavesdropping behind the rockery, Xie Yan and Xie Wei, jumped up in fright. Xie Yan stepped on the hem of Xie Wei's skirt, and Xie Wei fell forward, hitting her forehead on the rockery. The pain was so severe that she saw stars. Xie Yan was not in a better condition either. She fell from the rockery to the ground, and her hand was cut by a stone, and was bleeding.
The two fell down, and Shen Tang looked surprised. "You, you guys..."
Xie Yan gritted her teeth, "You are deliberately scaring us!"
She did it on purpose.
But she also wouldn't admit it.
Shen Tang said, "You'd better get up quickly. I really saw a snake, so I won't help you..."
After saying that, Shen Tang walked away without pursuing the matter of eavesdropping.
He fell like this, there's no way to hide it.
She was talking to the Princess of Qi, and they were hiding in the dark and eavesdropping. Doing such a disrespectful thing would make it difficult for them to pass the test of the old lady, let alone the prince and princess. There was no need for her to say more.
Shen Tang left quickly, as if he was afraid of being bitten by a snake. Xie Yan and Xie Wei were also really scared. Although it was already autumn, it didn't mean that there were no snakes. Although they thought Shen Tang was trying to scare them, it's better to be safe than sorry.
The two men quickly stood up and moved away from the rockery. One of them bumped into it, and the other fell to the ground. They were in such a mess.
Looking at Shen Tang's leaving back, Xie Yan and Xie Wei almost bit their teeth to pieces.
The maid came over and said, "Miss..."
"Hurry up and get someone to call a doctor!"
If I speak louder, my head will start buzzing.
Xie Wei was so dizzy that she could hardly stand.
I didn't overhear anything and I even hit my forehead. Could it be any more unlucky?!
Shen Tang smiled all the way back to Chenxiangxuan. Just as he reached the door of Chenxiangxuan, a maid ran up behind him and said anxiously, "Crown Princess, it's bad! Princess Qi has fainted!"
