Chapter 128: The Horse Dies
"Phew! It's a nice thing to say, the flowers are blooming and rich, do you think that just by you, and your mother, you can keep the Shen family? Don't be naΓ―ve, you can't fight the ground, the emperor has long wanted to get rid of the Shen family, but he has never succeeded, hahaha...... Do you think that if you hand me over to King Chengjun with this bad breath, he will have the ability to protect the Shen family? He was so stupid that he couldn't even avenge his son's land. β
Being slapped by Shen Xianhe, Shen Junan endured the severe pain and continued to stimulate her and King Chengjun.
Without waiting for King Chengjun to move, Shen Xianhe's eyes were cold, and he raised his hand and slapped him a few more times.
"Really? Originally, I wanted to cut you off today, but now that I have changed my mind, I will let you continue to live and see with my own eyes whether my mother and I have the ability to keep the Shen family's land? Yes, even if it's the emperor? I, Shen Xianhe, want to keep the land things, and he can't take them away. β
Shen Jun'an was slapped by Shen Xianhe's slaps, and after coming back to his senses and hearing her words, the whole person looked at her blankly, unable to say anything for a long time.
After seeing that he was quiet, Shen Xianhe turned to look at King Chengjun and saluted him.
"Uncle, this is a twist and turn, I don't think I need to say anything, you already know it, as for my land, I think you have also seen it, and please ask my uncle to help me in the future, both public and private, it is not a bad thing for everyone."
"Hmph, you've said so, do I have any other options? However, for your honesty's sake, I will definitely help you in the future, but he ....... β
As he spoke, he turned his gaze back to Shen Junan, his eyes full of murderous hatred, and continued to speak.
"You have to give him to me."
Shen Jun'an, who was frightened by the hatred in King Chengjun's eyes, grabbed the corner of Shen Xianhe's clothes with his other hand as if grasping a life-saving straw, and couldn't help trembling.
"Shen Xianhe, good daughter...... You can't give me to him, don't you say...... Did you say you wanted me to watch you save the Shen family? If you hand me over to him, what life will I have to see...... β
Shen Xianhe pulled the corner of his soiled clothes out of his hand and didn't look at him.
"Since my uncle wants it, I can't help but give it, after all, the evil spirit in my heart is going to come out, but I also ask my uncle not to kill people, and on the day my Shen family escapes, my uncle can dispose of it at will."
"Shen Xianhe, you slut, I am your biological father, you just handed me over to others to condemn life and death, you will not die well, God will not let you go, you will be punished, you evil girl, I should have killed you in the first place...... Yes....... β
Shen Junan scolded when he heard these two people discussing his life and death when he didn't exist, and he didn't report any hope.
It's just that before he finished venting, he was kicked to the ground by King Chengjun, and after letting out a terrible scream, the person also passed out.
"Okay, I promise you, when your Shen family is safe and sound, it will be his Shen Junan's death."
After handing over Shen Junan to Queen Chengjun, Shen Xianhe returned to the Guogong Mansion and went to the courtyard of the eldest princess, as soon as he entered the door, he smelled a very shallow smell of blood, his heart jumped, and he hurriedly rushed to the inner room.
Seeing Shen Xianhe, the eldest princess hid the things in her hand back under the pillow in a little panic, but said casually.
"Why is it so hot? Did something happen? β
"Mother, what are you doing?"
Shen Xianhe saw that the eldest princess looked sick, and asked suspiciously as he walked towards her.
"Didn't do anything, by the way, have you seen King Chengjun?"
"Well, I've seen it, my father has already explained what happened, King Chengjun's heart is full of hatred, in order to let him vent some anger, I handed my father over to him."
The eldest princess frowned and nodded, not like a relaxed look, but with a little worry.
"You gave your father to King Chengjun...... Will he hold your father hostage to surrender to the emperor? β
Shen Xianhe waved his hand.
"Mother, don't worry about it, the emperor is the culprit who killed his son, how can he surrender to her."
"That's all I want."
"Well, don't worry, by the way, mother, when I entered the door just now, why did I smell a faint smell of blood?"
After hearing this, Shen Xianhe saw the eldest princess's expression and suddenly became flustered, and the doubts in his heart also surged into his heart.
"Oh, my appetite is a little bad today, I asked the kitchen to get some pig blood to adjust my appetite, I didn't expect your nose to be so good, I let people clean it, you can still smell it."
"I see, I thought ......, nothing, mother, and then I can announce the news of my father's violent death, but it's just a little troublesome, I have to get a corpse similar to him to disguise."
"The trouble is a little troublesome, but it is also to seal the rest of the population, so you can do it boldly, and your mother will always be behind you to support you."
The eldest princess touched Shen Xianhe's hair dotingly.
"Mmmm, I will definitely live up to my mother's expectations."
After discussing with the eldest princess about dealing with Shen Jun'an's funeral, she said goodbye to the eldest princess and prepared to go back to her courtyard, but when she turned to leave, she still had some strange feelings in her heart, but when she thought that the eldest princess had no reason to hide anything from her, she left this strange feeling behind.
What she didn't know was that after the eldest princess turned around, her smile instantly relaxed, and her eyes were full of sadness.
The winter in the capital is very cold, and when everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the New Year, a news suddenly broke out that shocked the capital, that is, the death of the Guogong Mansion.
Soon, the sudden death of Shen Junan, the eldest princess of the Guogong Mansion, spread throughout the capital, and everyone was surprised at the same time, but also heard some bad rumors one after another, it was rumored that the horse master died violently in the Qinglou, and the Guogong Mansion hurriedly buried him in order to cover up this ugly incident.
However, although the whole capital is talking about it, the Guogong Mansion is also as silent as ever, no matter what the people outside say, they have not come out to explain a thing or two, and even up and down the house, except for the people who go out to buy vegetables, the masters have never been out of the house alone, and many families who are good friends with the Guogong Mansion are also very polite and did not bother.
Soon, it was the New Year.
Although there is such a sad thing in the Guogong Mansion, there is no need to greet each other with various families, but the palace must go, especially the Queen Mother, who is the most neglectful.
Therefore, although it was the New Year, Shen Xianhe and the eldest princess did not dress up, but entered the palace dressed plainly.
Because she promised the Empress Dowager last time that she would take Su Nianjun to see her, she took this opportunity to let Su Nianjun disguise herself as a subordinate of the Guogong Mansion and follow her into the palace.
When I came to the palace of the Empress Dowager, the other relatives of the emperor who came early had just finished meeting and were about to leave, so I happened to meet them, and everyone exchanged a few words of greeting, and then said goodbye.
As soon as I entered the door, I saluted the Queen Mother according to the rules.
Shen Xianhe couldn't wait to run to the Empress Dowager's side, hugging her arm and coquettishly.
"Grandmother, my granddaughter misses you so much, I haven't seen you these days, I see that you are a little thin, I must think about my granddaughter."
The Empress Dowager doted on her and hugged her into her arms, with a smile on her face, but she pretended to tease.
"You monkey, you are annoying without you, and you use some of the mourning family's meals, how can you lose weight."
"Grandmother, it turns out that you dislike your granddaughter so much, so your granddaughter won't bother you, lest your granddaughter annoy you again."
Shen Xianhe left the Empress Dowager's side, pretending to be heartbroken while saying aggrievedly.
"You splash monkey, say that you are a splash monkey, you really bear this name, the mourning family only said a bad word, you have ten sentences waiting for the mourning family, there is really no way to take you."
"Grandmother, where is the granddaughter who is a monkey, it's not your grandmother's favorite, you want to blame, you are to blame."
"Listen, what the mourning family said is right, this girl, she really can't say a bad word."
"Mother, don't say it, it's really your fault for this, if you hadn't spoiled her so lawlessly, she wouldn't be like this."
The eldest princess stood aside and watched their interaction, smiling with a smile on her face.
