Chapter 23: King Ling is brutal
Shen Yanshu returned to the Dark Fragrance Residence, and was so tired that he fell on the bed all of a sudden.
As soon as she thought that the Lingyun Sword she had finally gotten back was snatched away by Yan Qinghan like this, she was so angry that her teeth itched!
Qing Kite brought the tea into the room, and saw Shen Yanshu get up from the bed again, sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, as if thinking about something.
"Miss, the second lady has been grounded, isn't Miss still happy?" asked the young kite puzzled.
Shen Yanshu heard Qing Kite's words, but there was no change on his face: "It's just grounded, and I can't defeat her with a few words." ”
Qing Kite didn't understand: "But the old lady and the uncle all know what the second lady did to the young lady, will they still let her continue to stay in the house?"
"What do you know? Today's incident was only because she was unexpected, and when it was investigated later, she could have denied it, and we have no evidence anyway. It's just tearing off her mask, as long as her skin is thick enough, she can act as if today's events haven't happened, what can she do?"
Shen Yanshu didn't think that she would be able to clean up the Meng family in this way, on the surface, she was still the second wife of the Shen family, the wife of Shen Kangzhi, even if she did something wrong, the Shen family would not let things make a big deal in order to maintain face.
What's more, how can the Meng Mansion explain, even if it is a concubine, there must always be a reason for being divorced, how can she count it only by the words of her fourteen-year-old daughter?
She didn't know how Shen Kangzhi would deal with this matter, after all, she hadn't met this so-called "father" yet, but if he really cared about the daughter left by the original partner, how could he let the original owner be wronged so far, and even lost his life, saying that if he has a stepmother, he will have a stepfather, which is not surprising to think about.
Qing Kite listened to Shen Yanshu's words, but frowned: "Miss treated the second lady like this today, then the second lady will definitely target the young lady even more in the future, what should I do?"
Shen Yanshu snorted coldly: "After enduring it for so long, how could she ever think of treating me well? It's just that she has torn her face, and she doesn't have to be disgusted with her in the future." ”
Qing Kite looked at the fearless look on her face, and her heart was slightly settled.
"The second master will come back in two months, and even if the second lady can't get used to seeing the young lady anymore, she won't dare to do anything to the young lady under the second master's nose, not to mention the second young master! The second young master is the best to the young lady on weekdays, and he will definitely not allow the young lady to be wronged!" As soon as the green kite thought of this, her mood instantly improved.
Her happy little appearance made Shen Yanshu feel a lot relieved, Shen Yanshu knew that although her twin brother Shen Yan'an was a little willful, he had a very deep relationship with the original owner.
"Is my father good to me?" asked Shen Yanshu.
Qing Kite paused for a moment, but thought for a while before replying: "The second master has a faint temperament, and he is almost the same to Miss and Fifth Miss, but he rarely pays attention to the things in this mansion on weekdays. ”
When Shen Yanshu heard her say this, he also knew it in his heart.
While the two were talking, Qinglan came in with a few people.
"Miss, the uncle ordered someone to send some things, saying that they can be used when Miss goes to girls' school in two days. Qinglan said as she asked the others to put their things on the desk.
Shen Yanshu walked over and took a look, they were all pen, ink, paper, inkstone and the like, but compared to the previous owner, it was much better.
"Thank you for me, uncle, I like it very much. Shen Yanshu said and gave the green kite a look, and the green kite immediately stepped forward and gave them some reward.
The maid took the reward and her face became more pleasant, and said: "The eldest lady said, the third lady has too few maids here, and tomorrow I will let the Ya Po bring a few people over to let the young lady pick and choose, and if there is anything you like, you will stay." ”
Shen Yanshu said: "Then thank you aunt!"
Dark Xiangju was originally a small number of people, but later Qingmei and Qingzhu had accidents one after another, and the Meng family never let people fill the vacancy, so there were indeed some fewer people.
Song's approach was exactly what she wanted, if a few maids were transferred from other courtyards, Shen Yanshu would not be at ease, so it was better to buy a few from outside.
Just sent away the people from the big room, and the Wei family in the third room also sent a lot of things, Shen Yanshu naturally didn't have to be polite, and accepted them all.
After a busy day, Shen Yanshu was finally able to lie comfortably in the bathtub and take a bath.
The bright red petals floated in the water, Shen Yanshu raised his hand, held up a few petals in the water and gently blew them away, some fell back into the water, and some fell on the white and flawless skin, red and white, particularly attractive.
She sprinkled water on her body, and suddenly recalled in her mind that when she met Yan Qinghan today, that guy actually dared to touch her with his paws...... Shen Yanshu was ashamed and annoyed, clenched his fists and hit the water fiercely.
"Bang-"
Shen Yanshu didn't control the strength at all, and the water splashed everywhere with a punch, making the room inside the screen full of water droplets.
The green kite heard the voice and hurried in, and when she saw the scene in the house, she was startled and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Shen Yanshu took a deep breath, tried to relax himself, closed his eyes tightly, and then said, "It's okay." ”
Qing Kite didn't believe Miss's words, since Miss fell into the water and woke up, she has been controlling her emotions very well, no matter how difficult the second lady and the fifth lady are, they have never seen her so angry as today.
"Qing Kite, have you heard of King Ling?" Shen Yanshu asked suddenly.
"His Royal Highness King Ling...... Qing Kite thought for a while and said, "I have heard from other people in the palace that this Royal Highness King Ling is the fourth son of the current emperor, he went to the battlefield at the age of sixteen, and he has already made great achievements in battle at the age of eighteen! He is still very good-looking, it is said that he is better than other nobles in the capital! It's just a pity that ......."
Shen Yanshu saw that the green kite was talking and whispered, and couldn't help but be curious: "What is a pity?"
Seeing that the young lady was so interested, Qing Kite continued as if encouraged: "It's a pity that King Ling was poisoned a year ago, and I heard that he has not lived long ago!"
Shen Yanshu was surprised, he didn't look like he was about to die when he saw him that day, but his face was paler than ordinary people.
Since they are all people who are going to die, why do they still snatch her Lingyun Sword!, Shen Yanshu said indignantly in his heart.
"How did he get poisoned?" asked Shen Yanshu curiously.
Qing Kite said: "I heard that it was the general of Zhenbei who rebelled, and His Royal Highness King Ling led his troops to suppress it after hearing about it, but he was injured by a poisonous arrow on the way, and it took a lot of effort to save a life." ”
"What?!" Shen Yanshu suddenly raised his voice.
The green kite was stunned for a moment by the sudden sound of the young lady.
You continue. Shen Yanshu said.
Qing Kite breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "I heard that after His Royal Highness King Ling was poisoned, he invited many famous doctors and did not cure him, his temper became more and more brutal, and he often abused his subordinates, and he abused the subordinates in the mansion to death at every turn.
After saying that, the green kite couldn't help but tremble, and it felt very terrifying just listening to it.
Shen Yanshu in his heart: It's really a pervert!
I really don't understand how my brother could call me a brother and sister to such a person in the first place! Shen Yanshu was depressed in his heart, his brother had said a lot of good things about him at the beginning, and even his father praised Yan Qinghan as a rare masterpiece.
Look away!
In fact, Shen Yanshu also knew a lot about Yan Qinghan's previous affairs, after all, he was one of the more outstanding princes.
The emperor originally had eleven princes, the eighth prince died at an early age, and the third prince made a mistake and was punished to the desolate Minzhou, the tenth prince and the eleventh prince are still young, and four of them have been crowned princes, namely the eldest prince King An, the second prince Ning Wang, the fourth prince Ling Wang, and the sixth prince Yu Wang.
It is natural for the eldest son to be crowned king, so King An was the first to be crowned the throne; King Ning is born of the queen, and his identity is naturally noble; King Yu's own mother is the most favored concubine today, and it is not difficult to ask for a throne.
In comparison, Yan Qinghan was a little sad, his biological mother Concubine Li died shortly after giving birth to him, and his mother was not conspicuous, but he was not prominent among the princes, and later because of the queen's words, he was sent to the border for training, and he went to the battlefield at the age of sixteen.
Who knew that he had made a lot of military exploits, which made the emperor quite happy, and once said that he had his demeanor back then, so he named him King Ling.
Shen Yanshu didn't know what role Yan Qinghan played in the Qi family when they were framed, but her intuition told her that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he must know something inside.
She didn't believe that the chess player in such a big game would be a simple person, Lu Huaiyuan was just one of the chess pieces, maybe Yan Qinghan was too, the chess player behind him had already set a trap and waited for the Qi family to jump in!
In order to figure out what happened in the first place, she had to have people at her disposal......
Qilin Talisman!
This thought suddenly jumped out of Shen Yanshu's mind, and her whole body straightened up directly in the bathtub!
"Miss, I'm afraid this water is going to be cold, do you want to add some hot water or take a bath?" asked the young kite.
Shen Yanshu came back to his senses, looked up at the green kite, and said, "Go and bring my dirty clothes." ”
The spring evening breeze was a little cool, Shen Yanshu lay on the window and watched the lights not far from the courtyard being blown by the wind, her green silk hair was scattered behind her, without a trace of hair ornaments, and her face was not powdered, looking like a hibiscus out of water, pure.
But her eyes were full of vicissitudes.
Father said that unless absolutely necessary, do not use the Qilin Talisman.
The first emperor gave the Qilin Talisman to his father, believing that his father's character could protect the country, and her father only told her the hiding place of the Qilin Talisman in case of emergency.
The unicorn talisman that can call 500,000 soldiers and horses can be used to disrupt the world.
It's not that she wants to mess with the world, she just wants the Qi family to get the snow for their grievances, let the bad guys get the retribution they deserve, and make the Great Zhou Dynasty more just.
Father, do you understand Yun Ge?
