The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death

However, the princess can only stop it temporarily. As long as there is an engagement and as long as Xie Guiyin is the prince's son, he will always be married. Concubine Jiang values ​​the Jiang family and must do her best to protect her daughter. The prince will not and cannot stop it.

Even the princess could not protest to the prince about this matter. Concubine Ye used her to confirm the marriage. Thinking about how she had repeatedly advised the prince to support Prince Qi, the princess was glad that the prince did not listen to her. How could she have the face to object to the prince?

Although the princess stopped Jiang Huier, she was exhausted. With one more concubine Jiang in the mansion, the situation was already so chaotic. If another daughter of the Jiang family came, she didn't dare to think about what the future would be like.

She let it go, she had long been used to it, she was worried about Shen Tang and Xie Guimo.

Xie Guimo was a little better off. After he entered the court as an official, he didn't spend much time in the palace during the day. But Shen Tang was different. She was the Crown Prince's consort and couldn't leave the Jingyang Palace.

Shen Tang was very unwilling to accept this. She looked at Xie Guimo and asked, "For Master Jiang's death, no one suspected the Second Master?"

There is no need to doubt it, it is obvious.

But they knew it was useless because the Ministry of Justice needed evidence to convict.

They all knew that the King of Qi and the Marquis of Changping were behind Master Jiang. Without any evidence, they could only watch them go unpunished. Some even rebelled against the Ministry of Justice after Master Jiang was poisoned to death.

Shen Tang felt so helpless in his heart. Concubine Ye and Prince Qi could do anything to achieve their goals and treat human life as worthless, but when they were harmed, they still had to provide evidence. Sometimes he really wanted to learn from them and solve these troubles with drastic measures, but if he couldn't bring them to justice in an upright manner and make their crimes public, wouldn't he be acting like a despicable person like them?

Shen Tang tried hard for a while before calming down his anger. "Without evidence, we can't do anything to the Second Master, but we can at least give him some trouble."

She had not forgotten that the old lady had caused trouble for her by giving Xie Guimo two bed-warming maids. Those two maids were sold by Xie Guimo and finally bought by the second master. The second master placed those two maids in a house that no one knew about, and no one knew what was happening to them now.

The Second Wife is not a broad-minded person. If the Second Master really keeps those two maids as concubines, there will definitely be a fire in the backyard. More importantly, it will be a slap in the face of the Old Lady.

She had tolerated them for a long time.

Xie Guimo pinched Shen Tang's nose and smiled dotingly, "I'll listen to you and give them some trouble."

It had been several days since he had paid his respects to the old lady. After breakfast the next day, Shen Tang took his maid to Wutong Courtyard.

Now, whenever Shen Tang leaves Chenxiangxuan, he will be accompanied by at least two maids. If Ginkgo and Qiutong don’t follow, he will bring Si’er along.

Before Shen Tang was pregnant, the old lady would complain about Shen Tang showing up in front of her every few days. But after she became pregnant, not to mention the old lady, even the picky Concubine Jiang didn't dare to say anything more.

Moreover, the Jiang family was confiscated and exiled. The niece from her mother's family, who was willing to sacrifice her son's marriage to protect him, was blocked from entering the house by the princess and had to live on the farm. Concubine Jiang could not bear the blow and fell ill.

I seldom come to Wutongyuan, but now that I'm here, I must sit for a while.

But Shen Tang didn't dare to touch the food and drinks. Being thirsty for a day or two wouldn't kill her, and she couldn't stay there for long anyway.

Sometimes he would just pick up the teacup out of habit. Ginkgo, who was standing behind him, coughed to remind him, and Shen Tang put the teacup down again.

This action made the old lady's face turn green, but she couldn't say anything.

The matter of the infertility drug has not been clarified yet, so it is normal for Shen Tang to have concerns. It is better to be safe than sorry, but this is too disrespectful to the old lady.

Before, the old lady was putting on airs and wanted Shen Tang, the Crown Prince's Consort, to pay her respects to her every day. Now she regrets it. Not only will she not gain weight if she comes to pay her respects more often, but she will also get angry every time.

Unable to bear it any longer, the old lady said, "The Crown Prince's wife is pregnant, so she should stay in Chenxiang Pavilion to take care of the baby. There is no need to come and pay her respects to me."

She didn't want to come, but if she didn't come, she wouldn't be able to watch the fun.

Why hasn’t he come yet at this hour? Do I have to keep waiting?

Just as she was thinking this, a maid ran in from outside. The princess scolded her, "How reckless! What's the most urgent matter that requires you to rush here? What if you bump into someone?"

The maid quickly admitted her fault after being scolded, and then said, "Just now, the city patrol caught a thief and chased him into a small courtyard. They found that the courtyard was the private residence of the second master. The second master also kept two concubines there..."

Swish.

Almost instantly.

The second wife's face turned green.

The old lady was also furious. "Who is so bold as to tarnish the reputation of our Jingyang Palace?!"

The maid wanted to speak but stopped.

Shen Tang saw it and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

The maidservant said softly, "Listen, I heard that the two concubines are Hong Rui and Lu Xiu..."

Shen Tang said, "These two names sound familiar."

Ginkgo whispered, "The two maids that the old lady gave to the prince were also named this."

Shen Tang suddenly realized, "Why does it sound so familiar? This is such a coincidence."

There are not so many coincidences in the world, especially when the Second Master looked at the two maids with a strange look in his eyes. The Second Mistress was afraid that the Second Master had that intention, so she instigated the Old Lady to give the two maids to the Crown Prince. Unexpectedly, the Crown Prince sold them. Could it be that they were bought by the Second Master again and kept in his private residence?

The third wife sat there, drinking tea to hide her desire to watch the fun.

The maid hesitated, "Okay, it seems so..."

"Young Master Huo is the Crown Prince's cousin-in-law. He ran into the Crown Prince on the road and asked him to apologize to the Second Master on his behalf, saying that his men had broken into his private residence because they were eager to catch the thief. The Crown Prince sent Chen Qi back to the mansion and asked Steward Zhou to go to the courtyard to pick him up..."

The second wife had already disallowed him to keep a mistress, but she also wanted to bring her back home.

The second wife's lips trembled with anger.

Shen Tang said, "My husband didn't know that the Second Master had taken a fancy to Hong Rui Lu Xiu. If he had known, he would have given her to him directly. He secretly kept her outside and was discovered. Not only would it damage the reputation of the Jingyang Palace, but he would also be impeached by the Censor, and his official career would be affected..."

The old lady's face turned pale and her hands holding the Buddhist beads were shaking.

She doesn't speak, and no one thinks she is mute!

Seeing the old lady suppressing her anger, Shen Tang felt extremely happy.

It's just a nuisance, who wouldn't do that?

If the old lady does it on the first day, don't blame them for doing it on the fifteenth. With the second master holding her back, she will not have the face to put anyone around Xie Guimo in the future.

The old lady's head ached with anger. "I'm tired! Everyone, leave!"

The only person she wanted to drive away was Shen Tang. After Shen Tang had seen the excitement, he didn't want to stay any longer and got up and left.

As they left Wutong Courtyard, Shen Tang still felt the fire wasn't burning bright enough. Glancing at the maidservant beside the Second Madam, she said, "It's strange. The old lady has watched my husband grow up, so she should know his temper. He wouldn't accept someone just because she pushes him. She even forced me to take Hongrui and Luxiu back with me. Could it be that she's worried about the Second Madam and doesn't dare to give them to the Second Master, so she's sending them in a roundabout way?"

The maid listened to every word and passed it on to the second wife without missing a word.

People who are angry always lose their rationality easily. Even if it was the Second Wife who instigated the old lady to do this, now she suspects that the old lady was worried about her son and gave him away in a roundabout way.
