Chapter 96 Admit Mistake
Princess Kang also brought the fake painting that angered the emperor and questioned why the Dingguo Mansion wanted to harm the Kang Mansion.
The questioning was so confident that Chen Wan began to doubt whether the painting was actually destroyed by Chen Wu or Shen Ti.
But if it is true, Prince Kang’s Mansion will not be so easy to talk to. Princess Yunluan will not bring gifts to Chen Wu when she comes to the mansion. It is clearly her attitude of begging for help.
Prince Kang's Mansion must have reached some agreement with the Second House, where the Second House helped Prince Kang's Mansion get the Yun family's paintings, and Prince Kang helped the Second Master get promoted.
The agreement was reached, but the item given by the second house was a fake. How could the Kangwang Mansion agree to it? They had to come to the palace to ask for an explanation before they could do so with such confidence.
The Second House did not get to eat the mutton this time, but got into trouble instead and was trapped in it and couldn't get out of it. After all, even the emperor knew that the painting in Prince Kang's Mansion was accidentally damaged by Shen Ti, and the Dingguo Mansion also said that it would compensate Prince Kang's Mansion. Now it is said that it colluded with Princess Yunluan to defraud the Yun family's paintings. No one will believe it. Even if others believe it, the Second House's already messy reputation will be further jeopardized.
Princess Kang came to ask for the original painting. The old lady felt aggrieved but could only endure it, because it was their own fault.
We have helped Prince Kang's Mansion to this extent. If we don't continue, Prince Kang's Mansion will not fulfill its promise and will even create hatred.
Princess Kang gave the second wife one day. If she didn't deliver the painting to Prince Kang's mansion before sunset tomorrow, she would bear the consequences.
Shen Wan didn't go to Shou'an Hall to join in the fun. Yin Chuan and Shen Wan were arguing, "Princess Kang had just left, and the old lady was so angry that she threw the teacup..."
Without Yinchuan's explanation, Chen Wan could imagine how angry the old lady was.
Yin Chuan said, "The old lady has sent someone to invite the Duke's wife. Do you want to go and see her?"
"Need not."
Her mother is easy to talk to, but not that easy to talk to.
They stole her carrier pigeons and used her name to deceive the Yun family. Now Princess Kang has sent all the evidence to Duke Dingguo's Mansion. It's good enough that her mother doesn't cause trouble for the second house. The old lady still wants to put pressure on her mother to get the Yun family's paintings?
Even if her mother agreed, her father would not agree.
Shen Wan was relieved.
Yun was busy, but no matter how busy she was, she had to go see the old lady if she sent someone to invite her.
As Chen Wan expected, when Yun arrived at Shou'an Hall, she became unhappy before the old lady could even speak. "The fake painting that Prince Kang presented to the Emperor, was it really compensated to Prince Kang by the Second House?"
The evidence was irrefutable, and the old lady had no way to deny it even if she wanted to.
They were clearly helping Prince Kang's Mansion, but now Prince Kang's Mansion only cares about itself and completely ignores the life and death of the second house.
The old lady regretted it deeply.
But the trouble was caused by the second branch itself, so it can only swallow its anger.
The Fourth Lady said, "The most urgent task is to calm the anger of Prince Kang and the Emperor..."
Yun interrupted the Fourth Madam and asked, "Where on earth did that fake painting come from?!"
No one answered.
Yun said angrily, "You stole Wan'er's carrier pigeon and went to the Yun family under Wan'er's guise to get the painting. I don't even have the face to go back to the Yun family. How can you have the nerve to ask me for help?!"
After saying this, Yun turned around and left.
The attitude is firm and there is no room for negotiation.
Not only will he not help, he also wants Shen Ji to find out the truth about this matter and give an explanation to Shen Wan and the Yun family.
The old lady knew that this matter could not be resolved peacefully. She looked at Shen Ti, who felt extremely aggrieved.
Inside the house, Shen Wan was leisurely eating fruit while flipping through a book when the little maid came in and said, "Miss, the fourth lady is here."
The one who came was not the fourth girl, but a scapegoat.
But Shen Ti is not innocent either.
Shen Wan put the book down and walked out.
When Shen Ti was about to enter the house, she was forced to take a few steps back by Shen Wan who walked out.
Chen Ti pinched her hand and said, "Second sister, calm down. I stole your carrier pigeon and went to the Yun family to get the painting..."
"Second sister is angry and can punish me in any way she wants, but I can't let my father and the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion be implicated for my mistakes. Can you help me?"
Chen Wan laughed, "You stole my carrier pigeon, used my name to deceive the Yun family, and still want me to help you. Do you think I'm so easy to talk to, Fourth Sister?"
Chen Ti said, "I know Second Sister is angry. You can hit me or scold me if you want, but if Prince Kang can't calm the Emperor's anger, he will definitely vent his anger on the Duke Dingguo Mansion..."
Chen Wan looked at her and said, "Instead of begging me, you should go to Prince Kang's mansion and apologize. You didn't intentionally damage the paintings in Prince Kang's mansion. The emperor won't do anything to you if he knows."
Chen Ti's face was stiff. "You want me to go to Prince Kang's mansion and apologize?"
Shen Wan asked, "Why? You don't want to?"
Of course she didn't want to!
This matter was not her responsibility, so Shen Wu should go.
Chen Wan said, "I almost forgot. Although you didn't intentionally damage the paintings in Prince Kang's mansion, you deceived the Yun family, implicated Prince Kang, and angered the emperor. The emperor may forgive your unintentional mistake, but he will not easily forgive your deception."
Shen Ti knelt down, and Shen Wan said, "Do you think I will soften my heart if you kneel down and beg me? Your knees are not that valuable."
"Take her out of here."
Two old women came over immediately and wanted to lift Shen Ti up.
Shen Ti directly pulled out the golden hairpin on her head and pressed it against her neck.
Shen Wan said, "If you have the guts, then stab me and let the whole of Kyoto know that you, Miss Shen Si, failed to deceive the painting and threatened me with your own life. Let's see if anyone will pity you and say that I am cruel."
"Drag her out!"
The two old ladies also disliked Chen Ti and dragged her away rudely.
Shen Wan returned to her room and read half a book when she heard the news that the old lady had punished Shen Ti to kneel in the Buddhist temple. At the same time, she also heard the news that the old lady was looking for her.
Just go and find it.
Chen Wan went to Shou'an Hall, and the old lady said, "Your fourth sister is so bold that she dared to steal your carrier pigeon and deceive the Yun family. Grandmother has already punished her. We can't let Prince Kang anger the emperor, or..."
Shen Wan said, "I don't care about the relationship between sisters. Grandmother wants to punish me by making me kneel in the Buddhist temple. I accept it."
"But I won't help you with this."
The old lady's face turned pale.
She didn't expect Shen Wan to be so stubborn. Shen Ti made a mistake, and she, the grandmother, also bowed to her. Isn't that enough? !
Shen Wanfu was about to leave when Shen Ji arrived.
"Father."
Shen Wan called out.
Shen Ji sat down, and the old lady wanted to speak, but Shen Ji didn't give her a chance, "Wait until my second brother comes."
The second master came very quickly, and as soon as he arrived he apologized to Shen Ti and Shen Ji for their mistakes. Shen Ji stood up and kicked the second master, making him kneel down on the spot.
The knee hit the bluestone floor with such a loud sound that one wondered if it was broken.
The old lady was heartbroken. "It was Ti'er who made the mistake. Even if he was a bad parent, you can't..."
Chen Ji laughed angrily, "You all think that I, Chen Ji, am so easy to fool, right?"
"How can a girl make the decision on such a big matter?! The painting was sent to Prince Kang's Mansion, and you didn't even ask a single question, and just let the fourth young lady send it to Prince Kang's Mansion?!"
