Chapter 184 Threat
Chapter 184 Threat
The second master's kick was so strong that the second wife fell to the side of a small table, and the teacups and pastries on the table fell to the ground.
Blood was flowing from the corner of the second wife's mouth, and her eyes were sad. She knew that the second master was sacrificing the car to save the king, but this kick made her suspect that the second master wanted to kick her to death.
Shen Tang sat there, his face as cold as if covered with frost.
She didn't believe that all these things were done by the Second Wife alone. If the Second Master didn't know about it, then why did he kill Chunlan to silence her today?
Could it be that the second master was so obedient that when the second wife asked him to kill someone, he would just do it without even asking a single question?
Considering what the Second Wife had done, divorcing her was too easy for her, and this was simply a pretense. Shen Xi was the Second Wife's biological daughter, and had just married the Prince of Qi. On the day she returned home, the Prince of Qi's biological mother was divorced. This was not only a disgrace to Shen Xi, but also the reputation of the royal family.
The King of Qi's eyes were sinister. He stood up and said, "The Marquis of Pingyuan has truly prepared a great gift for me!"
With a flick of his sleeves, the King of Qi left.
He was not willing to give Shen Xian the position of principal wife, but the eldest prince's party put pressure on him and the emperor granted the marriage, so he had no choice but to accept it. He was forced to accept the marriage by the imperial decree because he was afraid that the eldest prince would find fault with him, so he accompanied Shen Xian back home. But what happened was that she was exposed in front of him. She was not the daughter of Shen Sui, but was a daughter of the second house who was substituted for the eldest house!
Is the daughter of the second wife of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion worthy of being the principal wife of the second prince?!
If this matter were to reach the ears of the eldest prince, he would probably laugh his teeth off!
Do not!
I'm afraid the eldest prince knew that Shen Xian was not Shen Sui's daughter, so he spared no effort to ask him to make Shen Xian the principal wife!
The King of Qi clenched his fists under his sleeves, and he wanted to kill someone.
Seeing the Second Wife coughing and spitting blood, Shen Xian wanted to help her up, but she didn't dare. In her heart, she had already cut Shen Tang into pieces. Then, she heard the suppressed anger of the King of Qi and shouted, "Your Highness..."
She chased after him for two steps, but King Qi didn't even turn his head. She stopped and glared at Shen Tang with a cold look, "Today is the day I return home! Did you have to pick today to make trouble for me?!"
Shen Tang thought it was ridiculous. "The Second House pushed you into the First House. Who did you say hello to? I'm sending you back to the Second House. Do I need to choose a day?"
"you!"
Shen Xian was so angry that she couldn't speak.
The second wife crawled to her knees in front of the old lady and grabbed her legs, "I know I was wrong. I should never have harmed the eldest son of the eldest house..."
The old lady said in disgust, "Pull her away from me!"
Two maids came over and pulled the second wife aside. Shen Xi couldn't bear to see the maids dragging the second wife, so she pushed the maids away and protected the second wife.
The second master said, "Bring me paper and pen!"
The maidservant dared not disobey the Second Master and brought the brush, ink, paper and inkstone. Shen Xi's eyes were red, and she pulled out the golden hairpin on her head and pressed it against her neck. "If you want to divorce Second Aunt from the Marquis' Mansion today, I will die in front of you!"
She actually threatened them with her own life. Did she really think anyone cared about her, Shen Xi's, life or death?
Shen Tang looked behind the screen and said, "I'd like to ask the Dali Temple to testify that it was Princess Qi who committed suicide herself. It has nothing to do with our Pingyuan Marquis Mansion."
Everyone looked towards the screen and saw the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple coming out from behind the screen with an embarrassed look on his face. They had thought that he was just here to arrest some ruffians and convict them, but they had not expected to encounter such a thing.
Shen Tang laughed sarcastically, "You're threatening people with your own life. Only people who care about your life or death will be threatened by you. Do you think you can scare me?"
Shen Xi bit her silver teeth to pieces, and her golden hairpin pierced her neck, causing blood to flow.
The old lady was frightened and said quickly, "Stop her!"
Mother Wang wanted to go forward, but Shen Xi wouldn't let her get even a step closer.
The old lady looked at Shen Tang and said anxiously, "Don't provoke her for now..."
Shen Xian was already married, the Princess of Qi, or a Princess who had only been married for a few days. If she died in the Prince of Qi's mansion on the day of her return, even with the testimony of the Dali Temple, Concubine Ye would get to the bottom of it.
Shen Tang knew what the old lady was worried about. Shen Ying was sure that the old lady didn't have the courage to let her die in the Marquis' Mansion, so she dared to threaten her like this. Shen Tang would not indulge her. "My mother experienced the pain of my eldest brother's disappearance and almost had a miscarriage. She finally gave birth to the child, but someone stole her son away under her nose.
My father and grandmother were confident that no one would be so bold. They didn't believe my mother and even believed that she had gone insane because of my eldest brother's disappearance. They locked her up, causing her to be depressed and die with hatred. I was left without her protection at such a young age. However, my second aunt, under the pretext of feeling sorry for my eldest sister who was almost strangled to death by my mother in the womb, granted my eldest sister's every request.
"Second Aunt's mistakes were so severe that Second Uncle divorced her, which was already a light punishment. But Eldest Sister is trying to use her status as the Princess of Qi to put pressure on the Marquisate. Do you think you're the only one who threatens others?"
Shen Tang stood up and looked at the old lady and Shen Sui. "My mother's last words were that I should be raised by the Jiang family. If you can't give me and the Jiang family a satisfactory explanation for what happened today, I will not return to the Marquis' Mansion!"
"Uncle, let's go."
Master Jiang Da and Master Jiang Er stood up.
Shen Tang was about to leave when Shen Sui said, "Father has already disappointed your mother once, and he won't disappoint you again."
Shen Tang felt a lump in his throat and stopped.
Shen Sui glanced at the old lady and asked the second master, "Are you really ignorant of what this vicious woman did? Then tell me, why did you kill Chunlan today to silence her?!"
The second master's mouth seemed to be sealed with mud, and he could not utter a single word.
The Second Wife said, "It was me. I asked the Second Master to kill Chunlan..."
Shen Sui sneered and looked at the old lady and asked, "Does mother believe it?"
The old lady's face was ashen, her eyes red, "Is there no room for maneuver at all?"
room?
He didn't even know how to apologize to Old Master Jiang and Old Madam Jiang.
Shen Sui only said one sentence, "Can Jiang come back to life?"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the old lady's heart, and the pain almost suffocated her.
Shen Sui sounded like he was asking a question, but in fact he was telling the old lady that unless Jiang came back to life, unless the grandson who was put in the food box was found, he, Shen Sui, would never forgive the second wife's actions.
The old lady closed her eyes tightly and said, "Let's divide it. The second branch will be separated from the Marquis' Mansion. Without the Marquis's permission, no one is allowed to set foot in the Marquis' Mansion again."
Shen Sui looked at Master Jiang Da and Master Jiang Er with a pleading look in his eyes.
Master Jiang said to Shen Tang, "The dead cannot be resurrected, Tang'er..."
Shen Tang looked at Shen Sui, "Will father still allow the second wife to enter the Marquis' Mansion?"
"never!"
The sound is loud and clear.
Shen Tang also believed that Shen Sui could do it.
But she didn't believe that the old lady could go her whole life without seeing the second master.
Shen Tang said, "Since it will never happen, then just remove the second branch from the family tree!"
