Transmigrating to a Female-Dominated World: Pampering My Little Husband
Chapter 396 Scapegoat
The others lay prostrate on the ground, too afraid to raise their heads, kneeling on either side in fear.
A soft, sobbing sound came, like spider silk wrapping around Tang'er's neck.
Ling Fengyuntang felt very uncomfortable. She tore off the plain silk hanging from the altar, the sound of tearing silk mixed with anger.
"Liars! You're all liars! My father is perfectly fine... Who told you to dress like this!"
Take everything off, take it all off...
"How dare you curse my father! You all have a death wish!"
The gold hairpin in her hair fell out with the violent movement, her black hair cascading down like a waterfall, and the bloodshot eyes almost swallowed her pupils.
She frantically tore at the hemp clothing of the palace servants.
The palace servants all looked terrified, but dared not resist.
He turned the entire front hall into a complete mess before staggering into the inner room.
She cried out in a trembling voice, "Father... Father, you're still here!"
You…you should answer my request…”
Until he saw Xue Guijun, who had already been changed into her funeral clothes, on the bed.
In that instant, I couldn't hold back any longer!
"Father! Father!" Heart-wrenching cries echoed throughout the Chengqian Palace.
"Father...look at your son...you must be joking with me...right..."
"Your subject admits defeat... Please get up!... Ah! You've won!"
She simply couldn't believe that in just a few hours, the father and daughter would be separated forever.
She collapsed to the ground, her fingertips scratching the earth and leaving several bloody marks.
Tears fell like beads from a broken string.
He approached the bed, stroked his father's hand, and murmured something.
"Father... Tang'er's birthday... hasn't arrived yet!"
You promised your son you would admire the peonies with him... You... you can't go back on your word..."
When Xue Guijun's palace attendants saw the Fourth Princess in this state, they were taken aback.
She too was silently sobbing, her face streaked with tears.
He stepped forward to help Feng Yuntang up, his voice trembling as he said, "Fourth Prince...you...please get up!"
Your Highness... Your Highness, he..."
Before he could finish speaking, Feng Yuntang pushed him aside.
The palace maid fell to the cold floor and got up on her own in pain.
He silently stepped aside and said nothing more.
Feng Yuntang found it hard to accept Xue Guijun's departure.
He clung tightly to Xue Guijun's sleeve, refusing to let go.
"Father... Your son will listen to you from now on... I will never disobey you again... Please wake up!"
Her eyes, brimming with tears, stared unblinkingly at Xue Guijun, who lay quietly in the bed.
He was afraid of missing the moment his father opened his eyes.
Outside the hall, Shangguan Shuofeng was helped by Granny Jin to the main hall!
Then they saw that the entire main hall was in a mess, with candles, tables, incense burners, and offerings scattered all over the floor.
The palace servants' hempen clothes were crooked and tattered, which made him frown.
Granny Jin immediately reprimanded sternly, "What happened? How did Consort Xue's spirit become like this?"
How can you people be so irresponsible?! Do you all have a death wish?!
The palace servants of Chengqian Palace hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy.
"Your Majesty, spare us! ...It's not that we servants have been negligent!"
"Yes...this...all of this was done by the Fourth Princess...we...we couldn't stop her!"
"I beg Your Majesty to see the truth!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please consider this carefully!"
The displeasure between Shangguan Shuofeng's brows faded slightly as he looked at Granny Jin.
Granny Jin immediately understood and softened her tone considerably.
He called out loudly, "Oh, it's the Fourth Prince!"
The Fourth Prince must be filled with grief and indignation at the loss of his beloved father. Don't you servants have any sense of propriety?
"Hurry up and remove these offering altars and replace them with new ones!"
The palace servants immediately began to tidy up the mourning hall in a flurry of activity.
Granny Jin glanced into the inner room, then whispered to Shangguan Shuofeng.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Princess must be filled with grief and sorrow at this moment."
"How about I go and invite the Fourth Princess over?"
"The dead are ultimately considered unlucky; Your Majesty should avoid contact with them!"
Shangguan Shuofeng raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with that? I am the Empress of Fenglin."
With the Phoenix Vein protecting him, he wouldn't be afraid of these dirty things.
This is the most vulnerable time in Feng Yuntang's heart.
She definitely needs someone to comfort her carefully, and at this time, such care naturally carries the most weight in her heart.
"This will allow me to act more quickly!"
Granny Jin smiled slightly and whispered, "Your Majesty is wise!"
With no one in the way, the Queen can do things much more easily!
Shangguan Shuofeng gently rubbed the corners of his eyes for a while, and his entire eye socket immediately turned bright red.
Her eyes were still misty with tears, as if she were extremely sad, as she looked at Granny Jin.
Seeing that Granny Jin nodded, she then smoothed the pearl tassel in her hair.
He stepped into the inner room, gently sniffing as he went.
"Waaah... Little Brother Xue... Why did you leave us so early!"
Feng Yuntang knelt down under Xue Guijun's bed, completely dazed!
Staring blankly at Xue Guijun's face, tears fell drop by drop onto her chest.
The area was already soaked, and even when Shangguan Shuofeng came in, she didn't turn around to look at him.
Seeing that his outfit had been wasted, Shangguan Shuofeng only showed a moment of displeasure.
Then, with a gentle expression, she softly called out to Feng Yuntang!
"Yuntang...it's all Father's fault...for failing to take timely...prevention."
"It caused your father to be harmed by that vile woman... This... this is all Father's fault."
Upon hearing the words "victim," a glimmer of light flashed in Feng Yuntang's stunned eyes.
He suddenly turned around and looked intently at Shangguan Shuofeng.
He said in a hoarse voice, "Who...who killed my father...tell me!"
His eyes were filled with hatred and ferocity, and his fists were clenched tightly.
Seeing Feng Yun come to her senses, Shangguan Shuofeng sneered inwardly, "So she's noticed me now!"
He sighed softly, his face showing a troubled expression.
"Alas... it's my fault for not finding out clearly that your mother is seriously ill tonight."
So they arranged for someone to attend to your illness, and the person who attended to you and your father was Lady Sun.
Unexpectedly, he... he actually dared to poison Xue Guijun...
"Before the imperial physician arrived, your father... had already passed away."
However, Sun Shijun was not able to escape either, and has been imprisoned and severely interrogated.
I believe... we will get justice for your father!
After speaking, his gaze slowly drifted towards Feng Yuntang.
Feng Yuntang murmured to herself.
"Lord Sun..."
Sun Shijun was one of the few people in the palace whose words the father-in-law could exchange.
How could... how could someone poison my father's wife?
Why? Because of what...?
Then she suddenly looked up at Shangguan Shuofeng, "Father...can you find out from the interrogation why...why did Lady Sun attack my father?"
Shangguan Shuofeng shook his head slightly, "This... uh, I just went to interrogate Lord Sun."
Even under severe torture, he still refused to speak…
Feng Yuntang's eyes were cold and devoid of any warmth as she asked the question in a chilling tone.
"Is Lady Sun still alive?" he asked, wanting to know for sure that there was no enmity between Lady Sun and his father and wife.
Why would someone commit such a heinous act against their father and wife?
