A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

Chapter 122 You Must Give Me an Explanation for This

Princess Ruihua was stunned. She was just anxious just now. When she heard Bishui say that it was Shen Nian who kicked Yun'er down, she got angry and blamed him directly.

She thought that Yun'er was just pestering Shen Nian for a while, and Shen Nian didn't want to do it, so she took action directly.

Unexpectedly, it was Yun'er who took action first.

Then I thought again, although Yun'er is ignorant, she would not blatantly kick Master Shen's wife into the lake. There must be some reason behind it.

"Who is Yun'er? How could I not know her? She couldn't possibly do this. There must be some misunderstanding."

"It was Princess Yunying who kicked the wife of Master Shen down. I saw it clearly at that time." Lin Sayu couldn't bear to listen anymore and replied loudly.

Princess Ruihua didn't expect that someone would actually dare to stand up and testify, and she looked at Lin Sayu deeply.

But now that things have come to this, I can only bite the bullet and protect my daughter.

"Then your wife can just rescue her directly. Even if Yun'er is wrong, you can tell me and I will teach her a lesson. You can't just kick her into the lake, right?"

"Hmph, if I hadn't arrived quickly just now, my wife would have drowned." Shen Nian said sarcastically.

When he heard Wen Jin's maid say that Xia Tian had fallen into the water, he was shocked and didn't bother to ask anything. He hurried over here.

When he arrived at the place, he saw a circle of people gathered, but no one offered a helping hand. Only Xia Tian was floating alone on the water. At that time, he even wanted to kill someone.

But he didn't know whether Xia Tian fell into the water accidentally or it was caused by human factors, so he could only bear the pain and rescue the person first.

After knowing that it was Princess Yunying who kicked Xia Tian into the water, he didn't think about anything else and just wanted Yunying to try it in the water as well. He was already merciful in not taking her life.

"That's right, Princess. When we came here just now, Princess Yunying sent people to stop others from rescuing people. If Master Shen hadn't arrived in time, his wife would have really been in trouble." Wen Lan couldn't stand it anymore when he saw that Princess Ruihua was trying to take sides, so he stood up to defend Shen Nian.

Princess Ruihua's eyes darkened and she looked at Bishui, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"

Bishui saw that he couldn't escape the beating today, so he knelt on the ground with a plop and then stumbled over the story, avoiding the important points.

After hearing this, Princess Ruihua knew that Yunying had caused a big trouble today. Although she was punished, if Shen Nian really wanted to pursue the matter, they would not be in the right.

But now she is in a difficult situation. If she gives in, her dignity as the eldest princess will be destroyed. If she continues to hold Shen Nian accountable, she will not be able to stand her ground.

He could only be strong to the end, "Even if Yun'er is wrong, how can a wild girl from the countryside compare with a princess of noble status?"

When Shen Nian heard Princess Ruihua say this about Xia Tian, his eyes narrowed slightly, his hands clenched suddenly in his sleeves, and his voice without a trace of warmth rang out, "No one has the right to question my wife's background.

Princess Ruihua and Commandery Lady Yunying are of noble status and may look down on those of poor origin, but this is no reason to beat or kill anyone at will."

Shen Nian no longer tolerated her. As soon as she said this, Princess Ruihua knew that something bad had happened. She shouldn't have been so angry that she talked about other people's background without restraint.

She held a poetry reading today and many students came. Some of them came from poor backgrounds. Even the Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy whom she invited came from a farming and scholarly family.

There were many students among the people gathered here. After Shen Nian finished speaking, he saw many people looking at Princess Ruihua with complicated eyes.

Just as Princess Ruihua was in a dilemma and trying to find a way to get down, Ningxue shouted, "Prince, it's bad, the lady has fainted."

Shen Nian just didn't want to get entangled with Princess Ruihua here. When he heard Ningxue calling him, he immediately turned around and walked to Xia Tian in a few steps.

As soon as he squatted down to check, he saw Xia Tian secretly winking at him.

Shen Nian paused, then immediately reacted. Without saying anything, he simply gave her a princess hug and carried her away.

Before leaving, he turned around and said to Princess Ruihua, "Princess, if Yunying County doesn't give me an explanation for this matter, I will go directly to the emperor to make the decision."

Wen Jin and the other two knew what was going on, but no one exposed it. They packed up and left.

After seeing Shen Nian leave, Wen Lan bowed to Princess Ruihua and followed her.

When Princess Ruihua heard what Shen Nian said before he left, she became so angry that her chest heaved.

But the person had already gone far away, so she could only ask someone with a sullen face to put Princess Yunying on the sedan chair and carry her back first.

When the others saw that there was nothing more fun to watch, they left in groups of three or four.

Just now, Xia Tian had been paying attention to Princess Ruihua and Shen Nian.

Listening to the two of them exchanging witty remarks, Princess Ruihua was relying on her status to put pressure on them. She was also afraid that if she continued, Shen Nian would really disregard their status and say something that would offend Princess Ruihua even more. It would be difficult to end the situation then, so she could only wink at Ningxue and pretend to faint.

Ningxue understood as soon as she saw the lady's eyes, and immediately cooperated and called Shen Nian over.

Shen Nian quickly carried Xia Tian and got on his own carriage, and asked Muchen to drive the carriage back to the city.

My clothes are still wet in the summer, which makes me feel very uncomfortable. I just want to go back early to take a hot shower and change into dry clothes.

Shen Nian was afraid that she would catch a cold if she kept wearing wet clothes in the summer, so she insisted that she change her clothes in the carriage first.

Xia Tian had no choice but to call Ningxue in, let Shen Nian go out first, and let Ningxue help her change her clothes.

Ningxue brought two extra sets of clothes with her today when she came to attend the poetry reading, just in case something unexpected happened and she needed to change clothes.

This will come in handy.

After changing clothes, Ningxue took out a clean thin cloak and put it on Xiatian.

We stayed in the water for a long time today, and I was worried she would catch a cold.

Shen Nian saw that Xia Tian had packed up before getting back into the carriage. He sat next to Xia Tian and raised his hand to touch her forehead. Fortunately, she didn't have a fever.

He took Xia Tian's hand and wrapped it with both hands. Although he didn't have a fever, his hands were still cold.

Ningxue looked at the prince's cold face and didn't dare to say anything. She lowered her head and lit the small stove in the carriage, then took out the teapot and started to boil water.

After the water boiled, Ningxue made the tea. Xiatian took a sip and felt much more comfortable inside.

Shen Nian's expression looked a little better now, and he asked Ningxue to tell him the whole story.

Although he roughly knew the cause and effect when Princess Ruihua asked the maid, he still didn't know the specific details.

Ningxue then told Shen Nian in detail what had happened since the poetry meeting.

After finishing speaking, he was still very angry, "Sir, you don't know how arrogant Princess Yunying was at that time.

During poetry readings, he insisted on competing with the lady, and when the lady refused, he would make sarcastic remarks.

After dinner, my wife and I were watching the fish by the lake. Who knew she would walk behind us and kick my wife into the lake.

Miss Lin Si, Miss Wen, and Miss Hu Er wanted to rescue her, but she had her maids and guards stop us. No matter how much I begged and cried, it was useless.

Ningxue started wiping away tears as she spoke.

When she was being pulled by Princess Yunying's maid and couldn't break free no matter how hard she struggled, she was almost in despair.
