The princess is the only one in Xuanmen, and she is reborn to lift the lid of the prince's coff
Chapter 70 Major Events
After hearing what Shen Xingcan said just now, Princess Changyang hurriedly ordered her servants to prepare 20,000 taels of silver notes and some valuable items, without noticing Song Wu's puzzled and scrutinizing eyes at all.
It wasn't until she turned around that she exclaimed to Song Wu: "The way the princess looks at me reminds me of someone!"
Song Wu came back to his senses, "My princess, are you trying to say that I look like the late queen?"
Princess Changyang opened her mouth in surprise and said with a smile, "It seems that many people must have said so."
Song Wu smiled and said, "That's why I became Master Lu Xiao's adopted sister! But my lady, please don't spread my appearance to others, or it will bring unnecessary trouble!"
Princess Changyang's expression immediately became serious: "The princess has done a great favor to the Shen family. Now that she has explained it, we must not do such a thing!"
Song Wu nodded, his eyes still searching: "But I am very interested in the princess!"
Hearing this, everyone in the room looked towards Song Wu and the princess.
She didn't look away: "Princess, please don't worry, I'm just telling you the truth. You should have died fifteen years ago!"
These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the room that was just filled with laughter and joy, shocking everyone.
She continued, "Some opportunity must have prevented that disaster for you, so you can continue to live well today."
Song Wu thought that after he said this, the princess would be very surprised, but he didn't expect that she would be so excited that she covered her face and burst into tears.
Shen Ting'an hurried over to pat her back and comfort her: "It's okay, it's all over! Princess, you must be capable to see that, and you didn't mean to bring up such a sad thing..."
But the princess immediately raised her tearful face and choked out a sob, "I'm not blaming the princess, I just didn't expect... I didn't expect that even I, the only survivor, should have died. Wouldn't that mean the whole family would be wiped out?!"
"The whole family was wiped out?" Song Wu's eyes were filled with doubt: "Did something big happen fifteen years ago?"
The princess closed her eyes in pain, tears streaming down her face. "You're young, so I'm afraid you haven't heard of this. Fifteen years ago, my family, the Dingwang Mansion, with over two hundred people, was slaughtered overnight!"
Normally, everyone in the Shen family deliberately avoided this old matter in front of her, so she had not thought about this painful past for many years.
Shen Xingcan had never known about this, so now he was so shocked that he stood there like a piece of wood.
Song Wu seemed to understand a little. She looked up and down at Princess Pingyang and Shen Ting'an: "At the beginning, I said that Princess Pingyang and Master Shen would not have any more children in the future. This statement was not groundless."
"The princess's mother's family must have been punished by heaven, so they will not have any offspring since fifteen years ago!"
This was even more frightening. The color drained from Shen Ting'an's face instantly. "Princess, are you saying these two things are actually related? Is being massacred also a punishment from heaven?"
Song Wu: "That's not necessarily true. What is certain is that Prince Ding's Mansion has a deep enemy. Fifteen years ago, did you find that person?"
Princess Changyang nodded: "I found out. It turns out that an old slave who was exiled was looking for revenge, so he hired someone to massacre the palace. In the end, the old slave was also beheaded along with his entire clan!"
"Then why did the princess avoid the massacre many years ago?"
"Because that day, I went into labor prematurely, and that very night, I gave birth to Xingcan!"
Song Wu couldn't help but look at Shen Xingcan: "Xingcan is indeed a little lucky star."
Princess Changyang looked sad. "Princess, you don't know. After giving birth to Xingcan, I did get pregnant with two more children, but each one ended in miscarriage and death. Even the concubines in the mansion were not immune to miscarriage or stillbirth. In the beginning, my husband and I had many arguments about this..."
Song Wu: "Lord Shen and the princess are linked by fate. As husband and wife, they will naturally be affected by this."
Shen Ting'an's eyes suddenly turned cold. "Then, Princess, perhaps you can tell what kind of evil things Prince Ding's Mansion has done to cause this divine punishment? Is there any way to break it?"
Song Wu held his chin in his hand and thought: "It's not necessarily that he did something evil. In my opinion, it's more likely that he was cursed!"
Shen Ting'an: "Curse?!"
This was even more frightening, and everyone got goosebumps.
Princess Changyang was filled with rage: "How could that old slave be so hateful! Not only did he kill the entire family of the palace, but he even used such a vicious method!"
Song Wu's eyes dimmed slightly. "I don't think it was that old slave! This technique requires extremely advanced skills. If that old slave really has this ability, why would he be content to be a servant in Prince Ding's mansion? Moreover, doing this will backfire on the person who cast the spell!"
Song Wu's words were more frightening than the last. Shen Yuanci couldn't sit still any longer. He stared at Song Wu nervously, "Are you saying that the real murderer might still be at large, and that the old slave who executed his entire clan over a decade ago might have been wrongly accused?!"
Song Wu gave Shen Yuanci an approving look: "That's right!"
Shen Yuanci covered his heart which was beating non-stop and was so frightened that he almost stumbled.
At this moment, Princess Changyang also completely collapsed and fell to the ground suddenly. Shen Xingcan hurriedly squatted down to help her.
Shen Ting'an wasn't in much better condition either. His face was pale and he stood there motionless, feeling cold sweat running down his spine.
Lu Xiao stood aside and touched his nose. It seemed that wherever his sister-in-law went, big things happened!
He still hasn't forgotten the scene when she came to the Duke's Mansion and shook the whole family to pieces!
Song Wu's mind never stopped thinking. To be able to set up such a spell, one must have at least the same level of skill as the Yin Formation set up by Prince Jin's Mansion.
Is there any connection between the two?
Is it done by the same person?
Could it be that besides myself, there are so many other people with great magical powers in this world?
But the ancestor said that the Shenji Sect is the most respected sect in the world, and it is far beyond the reach of other sects of alchemy...
At present, only himself and Yu Ma are left in the Shenji Sect, and Yu Ma has no more magic power...
Shen Ting'an grabbed Song Wu, trembling and terrified. "Princess, is there any way to break this spell? Will this spell affect the children?"
Song Wu came to his senses and said, "There's no way to break this curse. The only good thing is that it only affects two generations. It won't affect children born fifteen years ago."
"And Xingcan is very lucky. He has already helped the Shen family resolve the problem. If that person has no intention of harming the Shen family again, there is nothing to worry about except that there will be no more offspring!"
She looked at Princess Changyang: "But Princess, you should think about it. Who is it that would risk backlash and destroy the palace? This is a massacre and a curse. It must be filled with hatred!"
"Yun Shu probably really doesn't know!" Shen Ting'an answered for her, "When she was in the palace, she was deeply loved by the old prince since she was a child. She was the apple of his eye. From being pampered since childhood to the outside world's grievances and struggles, she never heard of them. She was always gentle and docile..."
Song Wu's expression turned serious: "That's a bit troublesome. The Shen family can only be more vigilant behind the scenes."
"Also, regarding today's incident, Mr. Shen's current problem, I wonder if it's related to what I just mentioned! The person who cast the curse has great magical power and can see a person's future destiny."
"Young Master Yuanci has a noble appearance and is expected to rise to the forefront and bring honor to his family in the future. That person must have been able to see his future, but even Young Master Yuanci himself knows that there is no possibility of promotion in the Ministry of Personnel, so I wonder if it was intentional by someone in the dark!"
"If that person is the one who did it, Lord Shen would do well to have the young master returned to the Imperial Academy as soon as possible. After all, this child carries the future of the Shen family, and if he dies, that would be the person's wish!"
