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

Chapter 242 Beaten

The old lady's marriage was arranged by the late emperor, and no one dared to neglect it. However, no one could say anything if the prince used the contraceptive medicine to exempt Shen Tang from visiting him morning and evening.

Shen Tang was still scratching his neck. The princess felt so distressed that she said to Xie Guimo, "Send Tang'er back."

The maid died, and the old lady behind it could not be found. If Shen Tang stayed any longer, he would suffer a lot.

Xie Guimo carried Shen Tang away sideways.

After leaving Wutong Courtyard, there was no one around, so Shen Tang quickly stuffed the antidote into his mouth. Although his nails were trimmed clean, he still scratched his skin in a few places after scratching a few times. The scratches on his snow-white skin were shocking.

Back at Chenxiangxuan, the itching in her neck and arms was gone. After entering the house, Ginkgo said, "When the maid named Chuntao died, she said something. I think she said it to the Crown Prince's Consort..."

Shen Tang was curious, "What did the maid say?"

Ginkgo said, "The maid said sorry..."

Ginkgo was sure that the maid said these three words, because not only did her lips shape these three words, but her eyes also said them.

The old lady ordered the maid to drug the maid. After being discovered, not only did she not save the maid, she also threatened to kill the maid's family. The maid and Shen Tang had no grudges against each other, but she had to harm her because of the master's order. Shen Tang wanted to spare the maid's life, although it was to catch the old lady, but it was better than the old lady's coldness and cruelty.

In order to protect her family, the maid did not dare to betray the old lady. Feeling guilty, she apologized to Ginkgo.

Thinking of the maid, Ginkgo said, "The Crown Prince's wife had so many rashes, and in the end a maid died. Is that the end of the sterilization medicine?"

Forget it?

how can that be possible.

That's a sterilizing drug!

It's going to ruin her life!

She and Xie Guimo went from being in love with each other to hating each other!

If we just let it go like this, then she and Xie Guimo would be too easy to bully.

If she got into trouble in the old lady's yard, she, the old lady, could not be suspected, otherwise it would be considered that she and the second and fourth wives were to be expelled from the palace.

She had never seen anyone do evil and then threaten others. She would not tolerate such a thing.

Shen Tang looked at Xie Guimo and said, "Can I let my big brother beat you up?"

Xie Guimo, "..."

Knowing what Shen Tang was going to do, Xie Guimo's forehead trembled, "Okay, let your eldest brother come."

Ginkgo and Qiutong were standing aside, and the two maids were stunned by what they heard.

Shen Tang ordered Yin Xing, "Go back to the Marquis' Mansion and tell my eldest brother that I was given a sterilizing drug. Ask him to come to the palace to support me."

Ginkgo wanted to persuade Shen Tang, but since a certain master had already agreed, why should she persuade him? Besides, such a big thing had to be told to the Marquis and the eldest young master. If the eldest young master didn't come, people would really say that the eldest young master and the Crown Prince's wife didn't have a deep relationship as siblings.

Ginkgo went back quickly, and Xiao Huan came even faster.

Hearing that Xiao Huan was coming, Xie Guimo went out to greet him, and Shen Tang lagged behind a few steps.

When she stepped out of the door, she saw Xiao Huan grabbing Xie Guimo by the collar, "What did you say when you married my sister? You said you would protect her forever, but now, after only a few days of marriage, someone drugged her to make her infertile?!"

Xiao Huan was really angry. Even though he knew that Shen Tang did not take the abortion medicine, the people in Jingyang Palace used such cruel means to harm Shen Tang. Shen Tang had to live under the same roof with such people. How could Xiao Huan not be angry and worried?

Xie Guimo wanted to explain, but before he could open his mouth, Xiao Huan punched him.

Xie Guimo was hit hard by a punch, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Huan still felt it was not enough and continued to hit him. Shen Tang said, "Brother, don't hit my face..."

Then Xiao Huan didn't hit anyone else but his face.

There is still some tacit understanding between brothers and sisters.

By the time the secret guards came to stop him, the man's face, which was so disgusting that it was abhorrent to both humans and gods, had been beaten so badly that it was unbearable to look at.

"If you can't find out who is trying to harm Tang'er, I will never forgive you!"

Xiao Huan put down his words, walked towards Shen Tang and said, "Is my sister okay?"

Shen Tang shook his head slightly. "Fortunately, it was discovered early, so the damage to the body is not that serious. It will be fine after a while of recuperation. I am sorry to have worried you, big brother."

Xiao Huan said, "Not only my eldest brother, but my father and grandmother are also worried. If I hadn't stopped him, my father would have come too. I'm glad you're okay."

After being beaten, Xie Guimo had to invite his brother-in-law into the house for tea.

The news of Xiao Huan beating Xie Guimo spread throughout the Jingyang Palace and reached the ears of the princess. The princess was heartbroken, but it was no wonder that Xiao Huan was so angry. Shen Tang had only been married for a few days when someone gave her a contraceptive drug. Xie Guimo was indeed responsible for failing to protect the Crown Prince's wife.

Nanny Yun asked the maid, "Is the prince seriously injured?"

The maid said, "His face is bruised and swollen..."

Nanny Yun said, "How could Prince Ning be so harsh?!"

The princess looked at Nanny Yun and saw that her expression was not right. Nanny Yun wanted to say something but stopped herself. The princess waved her hand and asked the maid to leave.

After the maid left, the princess asked, "Is there anything you can't just say?"

Even though there was no one in the room, Nanny Yun didn't dare to speak loudly. She leaned close to the princess' ear and whispered a few words, which made the princess' brows twisted into knots.

Xiao Huan only drank a cup of tea and went back because he was afraid that the old lady and Shen Sui would worry.

As soon as Xiao Huan left, the princess arrived. When she entered the room and saw Xie Guimo with a bruised face and nose, she asked, "What happened?"

Xie Guimo asked, "What is Mother asking?"

The princess said, "Madame Yun told me about the sterilization drug."

Nanny Yun was too tight-lipped. Since everything was known, Xie Guimo would not hide it from the princess. "A few days ago, Tang'er found that the taste of the tea she drank was not right. She found out about the infertility drug and asked Nanny Yun to pretend to be sick, just to let the doctor catch her in the act."

After Xie Guimo finished speaking, Shen Tang apologized, "I didn't tell Mother in advance, and made Mother worry."

The princess was not lightly worried. Knowing that Shen Tang did not drink the sterilization medicine, the princess said, "I'm glad you're okay. If something like this happens again in the future, at least let mother know."

Shen Tang nodded obediently.

The princess looked at Xie Guimo's face and asked, "Is this intentional?"

Xie Guimo touched his face when a maid came in from outside the beaded curtain and said, "My Lord, the Emperor summons you to the palace."

Wutong Courtyard, inner room.

The old lady sat on the Arhat couch, her face so gloomy that ink could almost drip out.

The maid came in quickly and said, "Madam, the Crown Prince's wife's eldest brother found out about the infertility drug and came to the palace to beat up the Crown Prince..."

The old lady just frowned at this matter, but the maid who came in later reported to her that the emperor summoned Xie Guimo to the palace, and the old lady's face changed drastically.

The old lady's voice trembled, "The prince has entered the palace?"

The maids were all confused by the question.

The emperor has summoned me, how can I not go?

Ok.

Not only did Xie Guimo go, but he also rode into the palace with bruises on his face.

His face was uniquely ostentatious in Kyoto, and coupled with his status as the prince of Jingyang Palace, the fact that he was beaten into this state immediately became the talk of the town in teahouses and taverns.

The Prince of Jingyang had only been married for a few days. The glory and splendor of that day seemed to still be before my eyes. But only a few days had passed, and he was beaten like this. Not only was he beaten, but he even went out...

Doesn’t the Prince of Jingyang have any respect?

Before Xie Guimo entered the palace, the news that he was beaten by Xiao Huan spread.

Chu Yi was shocked. "Xiao Huan beat him? How is that possible?"

"This rumor is too outrageous," Xiao Xun also said.

Someone who knows the situation asked, "Guess why Prince Ning beat up Prince Jingyang?"

"Is there any need to ask? It must be related to the Crown Princess of Jingyang," someone said.

"Exactly."

The man said, "Prince Jingyang's wife had just married Prince Jingyang, and she was drugged to make her infertile. Prince Ning was angry that Prince Jingyang didn't protect his sister, so he beat him up."

Everyone gasped, "Who gave the Jingyang Prince's wife a sterilizing drug?"

The man said, "I haven't found out..."

"Can't you find out about this?"

That person said, "The affairs of aristocratic families are not that simple. Sometimes it's not that we can't find out, but that we can't and don't dare to find out."

Hearing this, one could tell quite a bit about the inside story. Under everyone's questioning, the man finally let out a little, "I heard the infertility drug was put in the tea that the Crown Prince's wife drank when she went to pay her respects to the old lady at the Jingyang Palace..."

After a pause, the man bent down and whispered, "The maid who served tea was beaten to death. Prince Jingyang wants to continue investigating. The old lady of the Jingyang Palace said that the tea was given by the palace..."

"Prince Jingyang wanted to investigate, and the old lady of the Jingyang Palace said she suspected her, so she simply kicked her and the second and fourth wives out of the palace."

"How can we investigate this further?"

The old lady of the Jingyang Palace was not an ordinary second wife, but a marriage granted by the late emperor. If the prince drove the old lady out of the Jingyang Palace, it would be disrespectful to the late emperor, so he could only keep the peace.

"Every family has its own problems. Even though Prince Jingyang commands a large army, he still has to worry about the affairs of the palace."
