After his wife and daughter died tragically, the scumbag prince's hair turned white overnight

Chapter 55: Shen Xi fell into the water 3 months ago, someone secretly instructed

Shen Xi's breath was choked, and he felt a sour and swollen feeling in his spirit's chest. Thousands of words were stuck in his throat, and finally turned into a sigh-filled "Mu Xi..."

They were very familiar with each other's past, and Shen Muxi understood Shen Xi's soft and easily moved personality.

She immediately suppressed her emotions and changed the subject.

"How much do you know about the current crown prince?"

When talking about business, Shen Xi quickly adjusted his state.

After thinking seriously for a moment, he shook his head solemnly, "It's not much, but it is inevitable that the prince is not favored."

Facing Shen Muxi's puzzled eyes, Shen Xi continued, "You may not know since you are from another world, but because of the defeat nine years ago, my Nanyuan Kingdom signed a ten-year tribute treaty with Beichen.

Next year will be the tenth year. After ten years of rest and recuperation, Nanyuan has recovered most of his vitality.

Although the emperor has reached the age of 50, he is still full of ambitions..."

Shen Xi frowned and thought for a moment before sighing, "At the beginning of summer this year, after the envoys returned from Beichen, His Majesty mentioned the Crown Prince's marriage in front of all the civil and military officials in the court, and placed high hopes on the Crown Prince to go on a diplomatic mission to Beichen next year.

The Crown Prince has no real power, let alone the ability to protect himself. If someone were to tamper with the Crown Prince's food while he's on a diplomatic mission, it would be easy..."

Shen Muxi immediately understood the key point. "If the prince dies in Beichen or something happens to him, Nanyuan will have a reason to attack Beichen."

What if the prince is lucky enough not to die.

Nanyuan and Beichen really started fighting. Beichen knew that Nanyuan did not value the prince, and the prince would be dead if he stayed in Beichen.

Anyway, as long as the prince goes on a diplomatic mission and the two countries go to war, the fault will be the prince's.

No matter whether the prince is dead or not.

If they won, it was the prince's fault. The war could have been avoided. It was the prince's uselessness that lost Nanyuan's face. They could only regain their face by using force.

The loss was still the prince's fault. Nothing happened in so many other places, but something happened when he was sent to Beichen. He deliberately wanted to harm the people.

If something happens to the Crown Prince, Shen Muxi, the Crown Princess who was given a marriage, may not be able to survive...

As for the fact that His Majesty would be going on a diplomatic mission after arranging the Crown Prince's wedding, the abacus beads were about to jump onto Shen Muxi's face.

After the Crown Prince's wedding, he took the Crown Princess on a diplomatic mission to Beichen.

On the one hand, it highlights Nanyuan's importance to Beichen, gives Beichen enough face, and lets Beichen relax his vigilance.

On the other hand, isn't this also a way to cut off the prince's financial support?

He chose an unappreciated housekeeper to marry the prince, without even giving him time to produce offspring.

"But it's not right."

Shen Muxi frowned and muttered.

"Logically speaking, since the imperial decree granting marriage has already been issued, those people must have been targeting you for a long time. Why would there still be..."

Halfway through his words, Shen Muxi met Shen Xi's eyes, which were still clear after going through so much.

She suddenly understood.

Unable to resist a sneer, she said, if granting marriage to the prince was really that good, how could it be her turn?

Shen Xi looked at Shen Muxi, who was frowning and sneering, and couldn't help but worry, "Muxi, is this water too muddy?

I'm starting to regret my impulsive decision to ask you to agree to the marriage."

Looking up at Shen Xi's worried eyes, Shen Muxi smiled at her soothingly, "But it's impossible for me not to seek revenge. You are right. This is the path I have seen that can provide me with the greatest convenience."

Behind everything, there is a price to pay.

Benefits and risks coexist.

The higher the return, the higher the risk.

As long as she can return to Beichen next year, she will go through it even if the road ahead is full of swords.

Now, every time she closes her eyes, the scene of Xiaoxiao's tragic death will appear before her eyes...

This kind of hatred!!

Almost devoured her.

She is afraid...

Too late and things will change.

More afraid...

After arriving in this strange place, and with the passage of time, she will forget what Xiaoxiao looks like...

When thinking of Xiaoxiao, Shen Muxi's body would tremble uncontrollably.

It's too awful.

Her daughter died tragically.

"Oh, sister, you finally came out from grandma?"

A depressing voice sounded, Shen Muxi suppressed the emotions in his heart, and Shen Xi floated behind Shen Muxi.

The person who came had slowly walked in front of Shen Muxi.

Shen Muxi raised an eyebrow and looked at her, "Shen Rou, how shameless are you to bother me at this time?"

Before, she didn’t understand why Shen Rou snatched Shen Xi’s marriage, and the people in the Shen family were indifferent, and even had the audacity to ruin Shen Xi.

But just now she connected all the causes and consequences.

Shen Muxi had every reason to doubt.

Three months ago, Shen Xi was pushed into the water by Shen Rou, and that night Zhang had someone destroy Shen Xi's innocence. Someone was secretly instigating this.

They had already prepared to push Shen Xi to the prince.

But he was also worried that the prince was only useless on the surface, so that's why what happened three months ago happened.

Shen Xi has lost her innocence. Once the prince refuses to grant the marriage, or marries Shen Xi and ignores her, it will be enough to show that the prince is not as harmless as he looks.

But they overlooked the possibility that Shen Xi would resist.

Or maybe they forgot that the real Shen Xi was already dead, and the one in Shen Xi's body now was Shen Muxi.

Shen Muxi was reborn with hatred. Although she had lost her fighting spirit, it did not mean that she would lie down and repeat the tragic humiliation she suffered in her previous life...

Old Madam Shen wanted to send her to her mother's farm, not to protect her, but to prevent the scandal from being publicized three months ago...

As long as we can delay the time until the imperial edict comes down, then it will make sense for Shen Muxi to be arranged on Zhuangzi.

Even though "Shen Xi" was disgraced later, the prince had to marry her.

After all, you never joke.

The coldness and ruthlessness of the imperial family are never just talk.

"Sister, I'm just concerned about you. It's fine if you don't appreciate it, but why are you scolding me so harshly?"

After she finished speaking in a delicate voice, Shen Rou's eyes became red again.

Shen Muxi was in no mood to argue with her, so he simply raised his hand to remove her jaw, stuffed a black pill into her mouth and closed it.

The whole movement was crisp and neat.

Before Shen Rou even had time to react, she felt a medicinal fragrance entering her mouth, followed by a bitter and numb feeling at the root of her tongue. No matter how she tried to speak, her tongue would not obey her and lay motionless in her mouth.

A layer of panic quickly filled her eyes, "Ah...ah...ah...ah..."

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pronounce a single word correctly, and she took two steps back in horror.

The maid wanted to help, but after meeting Shen Muxi's cold eyes, she dared not move.

Only then did Shen Rou realize that her elder sister never just talked.

"Ah...ah ah..."

She tried to scream to attract the servants.

Shen Muxi pulled her back to him without any hesitation and whispered in her ear, "Just now in the corridor, I warned you that you'd better not act rashly. I dare say you ignored my words."

Only Shen Rou could hear her voice.

"You came to provoke me today, and I'm in a good mood, so I'll reward you with a tongue-numbing pill that won't harm the fetus. But tomorrow... it's hard to say. Are you sure you have to come to me and cause trouble?"
