Come on, Your Highness

"Snapped!"

Princess Liyang raised her hand and slapped Zhan Shaoqi.

That slap was hard, and it missed his head in an instant.

"Mother!" Zhan Shaoqi looked at Princess Liyang in disbelief. In front of so many servants, his mother actually beat him!

"Shut up! It's okay to let you mess around... What do you want to do when you play tricks at home? To kill your first wife...or to kill your mother?"

Princess Liyang was so frightened when she heard the report came in a hurry.

Is angry, but also afraid.

When she saw that He Lingshan was about to commit suicide with a dagger, her mind was almost blank, and she screamed to stop it without thinking.

Fortunately, He Lingshan did not seek death willfully, the dagger stopped in an instant, leaving only a bloodstain.

So there was a scene where the eldest princess of Liyang came in and turned around to slap her son without saying a word.

Zhan Shaoqi was full of dissatisfaction: "Mother, do you know what she did? This woman sneered at me and sneered at me. For so many years, she has regarded herself as the Zhan family and not me as her husband. She is just a bitch..."

"Kneel down!" the eldest princess shouted angrily.

"Mom!" Zhan Shaoqi looked at her in shock.

"Your Majesty!"

In the whole mansion, Zhan Shaoqi was only afraid of Princess Liyang. Under pressure, he could only bend his knees slowly and had to kneel down with his head bowed.

The eldest princess's chest rose and fell, and she gave Zhan Shaoqi a hard look, then raised her head to look at He Lingshan on the bed.

The latter was comforted by the two maids who hugged her tightly in their arms, but even though there was no danger now, she still held the dagger tightly in her hand, her eyes fixed on Zhan Shaoqi on the ground, as if she was facing a formidable enemy.

There was resentment and fear in those eyes, and his body was still trembling when he looked closely.

The eldest princess felt a pain in her heart, she closed her eyes, and finally said coldly: "It's all my fault, I didn't teach you well. Shaoqi, you said that Shan'er didn't regard you as her husband, but you took her As a wife? You keep saying that this woman is so respectful? She married you, and she will be the Zhan family from now on. You should cherish her, but the backyard is messy and smelly. Dirty eyes, let alone her! No wife can bear it! Shan’er can do this, I’m very grateful and satisfied! You dare to do something to her! Is there anything you can’t talk about, you He actually did something to her! Zhan Shaoqi, let me tell you, even if I don't want your son, I want my daughter-in-law!"

The princess's words were loud and unambiguous, showing her determination to do what she said, making Zhan Shaoqi's hands tightly clenched into fists, and he lowered his head, but he didn't dare to argue any more.

Only then did the eldest princess relax with the breath she raised in her throat, and she took a step closer to the bed, He Lingshan's sharp eyes immediately looked at her, her knuckles turned white with the dagger.

"Good boy, don't worry, with your mother here, I will never let this evil move your finger again! Be good, put down the knife, it's too dangerous, it's fine if you hurt others, what if you hurt yourself?" The princess persuaded softly, approaching slowly step by step, and then told the maid beside He Lingshan, "Go get your young lady a basin of water, wash and change her clothes."

The eldest princess' order made Jasmine and Shao Yao hesitate, and they looked at He Lingshan worriedly.

"Hurry up, your neck is still bleeding!"

Shao Yao then said to Jasmine: "You stay with Young Madam, I will take people to prepare."

Jasmine nodded.

As soon as Shaoyao moved, Jasmine persuaded He Lingshan: "Young Madam, give the knife to the servant, it's already safe."

As soon as her hand touched the handle of the dagger, she heard He Lingshan say: "Get out."

These words were not directed at Jasmine, but Zhan Shaoqi on the ground.

The eldest princess immediately turned her head back and ordered: "Get out and kneel outside. Whenever Shan'er loses her temper, you can get up. If she doesn't speak, you will kneel for me even if you die!"

Under the eyes of everyone, the eldest princess didn't give Zhan Shaoqi any face. He could only stand up, walk to the door honestly, and kneel in the yard.

As soon as his figure disappeared, He Lingshan's stiff body softened completely, and the dagger suddenly fell onto the bed.

Seeing that Jasmine felt pain in her heart, the master and servant immediately burst into tears.

Shao Yao walked in with a washbasin and a handkerchief, and found a suit of clothes.

Jasmine helped He Lingshan get off the bed, and the eldest princess took the moist and warm handkerchief from Shao Yao, and Jasmine said, "Eldest princess, let the slaves come."

The eldest princess didn't insist. After Jasmine washed He Lingshan's face, she brought another cup of tea: "Shan'er, drink some water to calm down."

Jasmine took it, served He Lingshan to drink a few sips, then helped her to the back of the screen, and changed into a suit of clothes, the previous one had been torn to pieces.

When He Lingshan sat in front of the vanity mirror and let Jasmine recomb her hair, her flustered and fearful heart gradually calmed down.

The eldest princess sat beside her, held He Lingshan's hand, and said earnestly: "Shan'er, you have been wronged, it's all the fault of that bastard, mother has no idea how you want to punish him, I just hope you will be well." Yes, don't hurt yourself again, my mother really feels distressed."

He Lingshan took her hand back, looked around the room, and finally said: "Go back, let me be quiet."

"Okay, okay, it should be. The doctor has already gone to invite him. He will come soon. You need to take a look at the injury on your neck. I asked the kitchen to prepare some food. You can go to bed after eating. If you have anything to do, just come and see Mom, do you know?"

He Lingshan lowered her head and said nothing.

The eldest princess knew that she was angry, so she sighed: "No matter what, this is always your home, Shan'er, and you will always have a good life."

These words made He Lingshan's pupils shrink suddenly, and her hands on her knees curled up.

The eldest princess saw it and said, "The mother has gone."

"Take him away, I don't want to see him."

The eldest princess frowned when she heard the words, and nodded: "Alright, mother will teach him a lesson for you, you should rest well."

Zhan Shaoqi was still kneeling in the yard, although his knees touched the ground, his gaze was very cold.

All the servants in the yard bowed their heads, not daring to look at him.

After a while, there was a soft call from both sides: "The eldest princess."

Zhan Shaoqi saw Liyang Princess came out from the main room with someone, and said to the servants in the yard: "Be smart, and let me take care of the young lady. If there is any mistake, you can only ask!"

"Yes."

Then the eldest princess came to Zhan Shaoqi, saw his son clutching his arms, and said angrily, "Get up, let's go."

Arriving at the main courtyard, the eldest princess rolled her eyelids as soon as she sat down and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Only then did Zhan Shaoqi tell the eldest princess exactly, and at the end, he said harshly: "Mother, I'm not wrong, He Lingshan is just waiting to see my jokes, I'm her husband, she doesn't even remind me Let’s see. I asked my brothers for the money, and I asked her to give it to me, and she would fight me hard. Whose wife is like this? It’s not just me, mother, you also invested money, this time, Isn't it all because of her that our house has lost so much money?"

The eldest princess's face suddenly darkened and said: "Don't talk nonsense, you secretly invested money, why didn't I know, you told her?"

Zhan Shaoqi said irritably, "How can I tell her that she guards against me like a thief."

The eldest princess gave him a blank look: "Then how will she remind you? Shaoqi, although Lingshan is not gentle enough, but she is the wife you are marrying from a famous family, and she was appointed by the Holy Majesty! She has been in the mansion for so many years, and there has never been anything wrong. You Today, I am in a daze. If there is a dispute, it’s nothing more than a few words. If you still do it, are you dissatisfied with the emperor? If she really stabs today, how do you plan to make your mother explain to Wei Guogong’s mansion and the emperor? Back then I forced Wei Guogong to agree to this marriage!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhan Shaoqi fell silent.

Seeing his gloomy appearance, the eldest princess couldn't help but had a headache and said: "Shaoqi, no matter how much you don't like her, you can't abuse her. You have no reason. Even if she can't have a child, she will take a concubine for you. If it is publicized , others will only praise Lingshan for being virtuous and generous, you are not satisfied!"

"Xianhui?" Zhan Shaoqi gave a short laugh, "Mother, you were deceived by her performance. I've never touched her, where did she get a child from?"

The eldest princess was taken aback in surprise: "What did you say?"

Zhan Shaoqi looked at her and said, "He Lingshan, that woman, since the first night of our marriage, we haven't consummated the house!"

"Why?" The eldest princess stood up in disbelief.

"Why else, just like just now, as soon as I approached her and wanted to perform the ceremony of husband and wife, she stabbed me with a hairpin or threatened me with death. Mother, how generous do you think she is? Treat me as your husband and yourself as Zhan's daughter-in-law!" Zhan Shaoqi raised his arm and showed the eldest princess the wound cut by the dagger, "Look, I pulled out the hairpin, and there is still a dagger hidden under the pillow. I'm afraid I'll touch her!"

Looking at the bleeding wound, the eldest princess felt extremely distressed: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Zhan Shaoqi's eyes flickered, and he said reluctantly: "Isn't this shameless? Besides, she is not the only woman in the world, and I don't bother to argue with her. If things get serious, I will become a joke instead. I'm out of breath."

The eldest princess finally slapped her palm on the table angrily, with anger hidden in her eyes: "It's a pity that I treated her well, and I still owe her in my heart. It turns out that I have been kept in the dark. You are really well-bred, a girl from the Duke's Mansion." It turns out that it looks like this, it’s really knowledgeable! No wonder she is not happy to raise Yun’er to her, she can stay here with peace of mind, this is to protect herself like a jade!”

When Zhan Shaoqi saw that the Eldest Duke took the initiative to get angry, he couldn't help feeling complacent, and said, "Mother, do you think I believe He Mingrui's words? I'm an idiot. This is related to He Xichao's own future. How could he say hello to his cousin who has nothing to do with him in advance?" , if it is publicized, how will the trade be opened there, how will smuggling be banned, and how will you take money from merchants? I’m just angry, this woman doesn’t take me seriously, and she won’t give out any money!”

"Princess, the doctor is here." A servant announced at the door.

"Let him in." The eldest princess said to Zhan Shaoqi, "Take a look at the injury first."

"Mother, what are you going to do with that woman?" Zhan Shaoqi asked.

"Disposition?" The eldest princess shook her head, she closed her eyes, let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "This matter is over, and you will pay her for it tomorrow morning."

"Apologize?" Zhan Shaoqi couldn't believe it, "I still want to apologize to her?"

"Otherwise?" the Eldest Princess asked, "You were the one who forced her to death today. All the servants in the yard saw it. If you spread the word, you were the one who ignored it. If you don't make amends, who will make amends?"

"But I just wanted to..."

"What do you want, intercourse? At that time, which woman would be willing under coercion?" The eldest princess looked coldly, "I want it, but not now."

Zhan Shaoqi couldn't help being angry: "I won't go, as soon as I see him now, I want to teach her a lesson!"

A finger poked his forehead, and the eldest princess hated the iron and said: "Fool, whether she wants to or not, she has obeyed the imperial decree and married into the mansion. She will be the Zhan family for life and death. You want to deal with her. You shouldn't take advantage of the trouble now that the whole mansion knows about it, and go to make a crime, get rid of this matter, and close the door in the future, it's up to you to decide what to do!"

Zhan Shaoqi frowned, but his eyes moved.

"It just so happens that He Mingrui has no money, so he actually pushed her out. It can be seen that he, a brother, doesn't take He Lingshan seriously at all. In the current Duke Wei's mansion, He Xichao has no right to manage her except for his name. And sooner or later, the Duke's mansion will fall In He Mingrui's hands, he will never give her a head start. Wei Guogong is old, and he will have to rely on this grandson in the future, hmph, relying on a widow alone, what can we do, from now on we won't let us pinch and round him!"

Speaking of this, the eldest princess's face became ruthless, and she sneered and said: "In the final analysis, when a woman is married, she should obey her husband dutifully and consider her husband's family, so that she can live a good life. She should be smarter, tomorrow you When I make amends, I will give you a step down, and I will persuade her to treat you wholeheartedly in the future, and to have a son in the future, just for the sake of marriage. Otherwise, there will be times when she looks good!"

And here, Shao Yao walked in carrying a food box, opened it and took out a bowl of porridge.

"Miss, let's have some millet porridge first."

He Lingshan shook her head: "I can't drink it."

"No matter what, your body is always important. Now that the Eldest Young Master has been called away by the Eldest Princess, I won't disturb you today." Jasmine also persuaded.

He Lingshan raised her hand to cover her face, took a deep breath, and said, "If there is no today, there will be tomorrow. I don't know how to stay in this princess mansion..."

"Ah? Miss, this kind of thing shouldn't happen again, and the Eldest Princess won't let the Eldest Young Master mess around again!" Shao Yao said in surprise.

He Lingshan smiled wryly and said, "It won't come clearly, it will come secretly. This time, Mingrui pushed me into their hands."

He Lingshan didn't believe a word of the eldest princess' comforting words today.

Zhan Shaoqi's ferocity is all on his face, but the princess's sweet face will only make her heart more bitter. If it falls into her hands, He Lingshan will never have a peaceful life.

Jasmine was angry and anxious: "How could Master Mingrui do this, you are his older sister, you planned to help him before!"

Who can know?

He Lingshan wiped away the tears on her face, looked at her, and said with concern: "I almost forgot, I was kicked by Zhan Shaoqi earlier, are you okay?"

Jasmine shook her head: "I'm fine, Miss, I should worry about you, should we find Madam?"

He Lingshan said blankly: "What can mother do, no one can do anything about this matter."

Anshen soup was brought up, He Lingshan was finally coaxed to drink it, and lay back on the bed.

And Jasmine took off her clothes, and followed her up: "My servant will sleep with you."

Shaoyao turned off the lights, and the whole room went dark.

After a while, Jasmine asked: "Miss, are you asleep?"

"No.".

Jasmine paused, then asked again: "Miss, do you accept your fate?"

He Lingshan didn't answer at this time.

Jasmine was about to persuade her, when she heard her whispering, "I knew the day my mother hanged herself. If I accept my fate, I really have no way out."
