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

Liu sat on the ground, feeling cold all over. Her intention to find Shen Nian and cause trouble was extinguished by the servant's words.

Looking at her half-dead son lying on the bed, she suddenly felt very tired. She didn't know if it was right for her to be competitive all her life and to fight for the position of the crown prince?

She tried her best to help her son get ahead, but her son always undermined her and made her lose confidence again and again.

Over there, Shen Nian returned to Lingyun Pavilion first. After taking a shower and changing clothes, he sat down in the study to calm down for a while.

Calling Mu Chen and Mu Feng in, "Just now Shen Ke said that all the assassinations after returning to Beijing were sent by him, but the results of the investigation showed that they were sent by Master Liu San.

Since Shen Ke also knows about this, it's inevitable that Liu is involved. Go check and see if there's any evidence of Uncle Lingxiu's involvement."

Shen Nian thought for a moment, "Also, let's investigate the last time we were assassinated on the way back from the Lingxiao Mountain sacrifice ceremony to see who that group was targeting."

He originally thought that the assassination was aimed at the emperor, but after Shen Ke said this, he suddenly wondered if it was possible that the assassination was actually aimed at him?

The emperor was actually implicated by him?

Because the emperor's itinerary was kept secret, when the prince returned to the capital, he told the public that the emperor had fallen ill after returning to the capital, so he would not be seeing anyone for the time being.

I believe that with such a big thing, even if someone wants to find out, they would probably have to consider whether they can bear the consequences.

But it is still easy to find out his whereabouts.

For example, Uncle Lingxiu, although he did not go to Lingxiao Mountain with them, as long as he wanted to find out what they encountered during their trip, he would probably be able to find out quickly.

If he sent someone or directly revealed this matter to Liu, it would be reasonable for Liu to send someone to assassinate him.

Shen Ke is Liu's son. It is estimated that many things are conspired by the mother and son, so it is not surprising that Shen Ke knew about it.

He also knew he had been gathering evidence.

If Shen Ke hadn't been beaten so badly by him today and hadn't seen any hope of begging for mercy, he would have said it without hesitation. I guess some things could only be his guesses.

Shen Ke felt that he definitely didn't have any evidence, otherwise he wouldn't have said it so brazenly.

It seems he is not as stupid as he thought.

Muchen was surprised, "Master, are you saying that the person who attacked you at that time was most likely targeting you?"

Shen Nian nodded, "We can just investigate this secretly. Even if the final result is that they are targeting me, we must prove that they are targeting the emperor."

"Master, what do you want?" Mu Feng asked in a low voice.

"Yeah." Shen Nian nodded slightly.

If this is really done by Liu or Shen Ke, we must prove that they are here to assassinate the emperor.

Only in this way could he ensure that none of them survived.

Seeing the two about to leave, Shen Nian stopped them, "Also, go check whether Lingxiu Bo and Liu had any contact after the Crown Prince returned to the capital and before we were assassinated?"

If Uncle Lingxiu and Lady Liu had met, then it must have been Uncle Lingxiu who told Lady Liu about his whereabouts.

Since everyone is involved, let's bring them in together and don't let anyone escape.

Mu Feng and Muchen looked at each other, understood Shen Nian's thoughts, nodded, and left first.

Just now, when his master beat the fourth young master, the two of them were outside. It was also they who stopped the guards and servants of Shen Ke's yard from going to inform Liu.

As for Marquis Wu'an, it might be that one of the secret guards saw the Crown Prince going to see the Fourth Young Master, so he told Marquis Wu'an.

However, Marquis Wu'an arrived at the right time and was able to hear clearly all the treasonous words that Shen Ke said.

It would also be a good opportunity for the Marquis to see what kind of person the son he has always valued is.

After Shen Nian finished arranging things, he sat for a while before getting up and going to Jinglan Garden.

When Xia Tian saw Shen Nian, he had returned to normal.

There was no sign of having just beaten anyone.

"Brother Shen, did you go to look for Shen Ke?" Xia Tian took Shen Nian's hand and asked him to sit up. "Did you beat him up?"

"Yeah. I beat him up." Shen Nian was a little amused. The first question he asked was whether he beat anyone up. It was really something.

"He deserves a beating." Xia Tian was angry, but also a little worried. "Brother Shen, you didn't beat him to death, did you?"

If someone dies, I guess Brother Shen won’t be in any good shape either.

Seeing Xia Tian's worried look, Shen Nian suddenly wanted to tease her, "Beat her to death."

"Ah?" Xia Tian was shocked and couldn't believe it. "Did he really kill him?"

Shen Nian doesn't seem like such a tactless person, does he?

Seeing that she was frightened, Shen Nian stopped joking and said, "I was just kidding."

Xia Tian patted his chest and said, "You scared me to death."

Seeing Shen Nian staring at her, she felt that what she had just said was a bit ambiguous, "Brother Shen, I'm not worried about Shen Ke's life or death, I'm afraid that if you beat him to death, it will affect you in the future."

Shen Nian held her hand and said, "I know."

At this moment, seeing Xia Tian worried about him, he suddenly felt that he was really lucky, because of which he met her and she saved his life.

If he hadn't met her, the grass on his grave would probably be as tall as a person, just like Shen Ke said.

Xia Tian saw that Shen Nian stopped talking and just stared at him gently, and he felt a little embarrassed being stared at.

"Will the Liu family come to trouble us again later?"

She will definitely not let it go after beating her son.

"I don't know." Shen Nian shook his head, "But my father already knows about this."

Shen Nian's tone was calm, but Xia Tian was startled. "The Marquis knows? What should I do then?"

The Marquis won’t come to settle accounts with them too, right?

"It's okay." Seeing that she was starting to worry again, Shen Nian quickly told her briefly what had happened.

Xia Tian was even more surprised. "You mean, the Marquis heard Shen Ke's plan to assassinate you?"

Shen Nian nodded. He didn't know why Marquis Wu'an came at that time.

But it was just the right time.

Xia Tian suddenly realized that Marquis Wu'an probably heard someone say that the prince was going to cause trouble for the fourth young master, and he might have been worried about Shen Ke, so he went to take a look.

As a result, you happened to hear something you shouldn't have heard, and you must be a little disappointed with Shen Ke, right?

Otherwise, when he saw Shen Nian beating Shen Ke so badly, he didn't tell him to stop, but let Shen Nian come back.

It can only be said that he did not expect Shen Ke to be like that, so Wu An Hou was angry for a moment and let Shen Nian beat him.

Fortunately, Shen Nian did not beat the man to death. If he had, the debt that Wu'an Hou felt towards Shen Nian would have been wiped out.

Seeing that Shen Nian did not do anything wrong, Xia Tian simply changed the subject and pulled him to the study to watch her paint.

Seeing that he was bored, she simply set up an easel for him and let him paint with her.

Painting can help people calm down.

In Shen Ke's room, Liu didn't leave. She sat beside him, watching Shen Ke and waiting for him to wake up.

The servant and Qiuyue were by his side.

Shen Ke took the medicine and didn't wake up until the middle of the night. She was still a little confused when she woke up, not knowing whether she was in the underworld or alive?

Before he fainted, he felt that he was going to be beaten to death by Shen Nian. His whole body was numb from the pain and his brain was in a state of confusion.

He only remembered that he begged for mercy for a long time, but his elder brother remained indifferent, so he simply gave up and told his elder brother about the assassination of Shen Nian, just to make him angry.

Who made him look down on him and no longer treat him as well as before.

Then he would make him suffer, make him want to kill him but unable to do so, just to make him die of anger.
