Quick transmigration to punish scumbags, have a child to inherit everything from them

Chapter 78 The Concubine of Prince Duan's Mansion (1)

After Shen Qin finished speaking, she turned to leave.

Yan Li naturally refused, and for some reason, the whip in her hand suddenly lashed out.

"no!"

Shen Qin was startled by the sudden appearance of the whip in front of her. Her footing faltered, and the whip struck her arm.

"what--"

Shen Qin screamed in pain as a bloody welt immediately appeared on her arm, and tears streamed down her face from the pain.

Yan Li froze on the spot for a moment; she hadn't expected to actually hit Shen Qin.

"Zhu Lu, have someone quickly send the Third Miss back, and then go and fetch a doctor."

Liang Qiuli felt she had watched enough of the show before she spoke up to give instructions.

Seeing Shen Qin and Yan Li quarrel, Zhu Lu secretly rejoiced, but her face showed an anxious expression.

"Yes, Miss, I'll go right away."

"what happens?"

Just as Zhu Lu turned to leave, Shen Shu hurriedly walked in.

He heard that Shen Qin had come back and met with Yan Li, so he came to Liang Qiuli's place. He was worried that something else might go wrong, so he rushed over to check on her.

But I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I entered.

Shen Qin's hands were soaked in blood, and she was in some pain.

Yan Li stood aside, at a loss for what to do.

Liang Qiuli was pale, but looked worried.

"Big brother, look! I was beaten by Yan Li! You have to stand up for me!"

As soon as Shen Qin saw Shen Shu, she couldn't stop crying. She stretched out her injured hand in front of Shen Shu and sobbed aggrievedly.

A pang of heartache flashed in Shen Shu's eyes. After all, this was the younger sister he had watched grow up. So he was somewhat annoyed that Yan Li had disobeyed him, used the whip again, and even injured people.

So he glanced at Yan Li, then at Liang Qiuli, and thought that since this was her place, she should take responsibility for what happened.

"Miss Liang, what exactly is going on?"

Liang Qiuli wasn't going to tolerate Shen Shu; his tone made her uncomfortable.

That's why she sounded listless.

"Young Master Shen, that's a very strange question. This matter is clearly none of my business, so why are you asking me?"

"Your sister-in-law and your own sister, you didn't manage them properly, letting them come here and cause trouble. Now that they've caused a mess, you're asking me what happened."

Shen Shu has already been informed by Qian Youqian of his father's intentions: his marriage to Liang Qiuli will be dissolved, but they will have to wait for an opportunity.

However, he did not expect Liang Qiuli's attitude to suddenly become so cold, and even her tone carried a hint of sarcasm.

This displeased him, and his expression darkened.

"Although I had a falling out with Yan Li, how could you say such things about my elder brother! And didn't you have any problems in this situation?"

Now that Shen Qin has calmed down a bit, she realizes that Liang Qiuli was the one who stirred things up, which is why she and Yan Li had a fight.

She felt that now was not the time for infighting; they should unite against external threats first. So she glanced at Yan Li, hoping she would understand.

"Brother Shu, Sister Qin is like this because of her!"

Yan Li understood, and not wanting Liang Qiuli to have an easy time either, she directly targeted Liang Qiuli.

Upon hearing Yan Li's words, Liang Qiuli let out a cold laugh.

If you're not willing to leave quietly and want to put on a big show for her, then she's not someone to be trifled with.

Before Liang Qiuli could speak, her eyes suddenly went vacant, and she collapsed to one side.

"Miss!"

Zhu Lu exclaimed in surprise and quickly helped Liang Qiuli up.

Shen Shu's expression changed again. He wanted to go forward to check on Liang Qiuli's condition, but Yan Li stopped him.

"Don't go!"

……

"What's wrong with Qiu Li? Why did she suddenly call a doctor?"

Upon hearing the news that Liang Qiuli had requested a doctor, the Dowager Consort rushed over.

Upon entering the room, he saw Liang Qiuli lying unconscious on the bed, having been helped by Zhu Lu. His face was full of worry.

"Quickly, quickly let the doctor take a look at Qiuli."

He spoke hastily, completely unaware of Shen Qin, who was standing to the side with blood still flowing from her arm.

The Dowager Consort had actually treated her granddaughter Shen Qin quite well before, but ever since Yan Li arrived, Shen Qin has often argued with her because of Yan Li.

She could see that Shen Qin wanted her favor, and also wanted someone like Yan Li to highlight her excellence and kindness.

Since that's the case, she doesn't need another granddaughter, so she might as well not have one.

Furthermore, Liang Qiuli was well-behaved and sensible after she arrived, and she was also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. The Dowager Princess liked this future granddaughter-in-law very much.

Even if she can't become the granddaughter-in-law, in the eyes of the Dowager Consort now, Shen Qin is no longer as important as Liang Qiuli.

Shen Qin stood there, her face even more pale. Although her hand had stopped bleeding, her heart was bleeding.

She wanted to wake Liang Qiuli up directly and ask her what tricks she had used to make her grandmother so biased.

But now, even if she is angry, she seems to have no choice but to endure it. Otherwise, as a concubine's daughter of the royal family whose mother died early and who has not displeased her grandmother, she may not be able to marry into a good family.

The doctor quickly examined Liang Qiuli and then addressed the Empress Dowager.

"Your Highness, Miss Liang fainted due to a combination of anxiety and restless sleep last night."

As long as Miss Liang gets plenty of rest, avoids getting angry, and calms down, she should be fine.

"Okay, you go down first."

The Empress Dowager breathed a sigh of relief and finally looked at Shen Shu, Shen Qin, and Yan Li standing to the side.

After the doctor left, she learned about the situation, then frowned and said coldly.

"What happened today was wrong first, Shen Qin, then Shen Shu, and most seriously, Yan Li!"

I told you long ago not to use that whip anymore, but you insisted on using it anyway. Now look what happened, you've hurt someone.

"You should let the doctor take a look at you later too."

The Empress Dowager scolded the three of them, but when she saw the injury on Shen Qin's hand, she couldn't bear it and reminded her to see a doctor.

"She started it..."

Yan Li wanted to argue, but Shen Shu reached out and pulled her back.

"Grandmother, we know we were wrong. Please calm down. I will keep a close eye on Yanli from now on and won't let her cause trouble again."

"Would you like to give her another chance?"

Shen Shu's attitude in admitting his mistake was sincere, and the Empress Dowager's expression softened somewhat.

But when he heard him pleading for Yan Li, his face darkened again. He was truly hopeless. If the Duan Prince's Mansion were to fall into the hands of such a person, it would be doomed.

Why not take advantage of the fact that her son, Prince Duan, is still able to have children, find him a suitable concubine or second wife, have her give birth to a son, raise him well, and he can inherit Prince Duan's mansion in the future?

However, his son has been cultivating his character and rarely goes to the backyard these past few years, so this possibility is unlikely.

Although the Dowager Consort was harboring her own schemes, she showed no sign of it on her face and maintained the dignified demeanor of an elder.

"Opportunity? Haven't I given her enough opportunities? Does she have to whip this old man like me before it's over?"
