Lord Shen nodded and sighed, "Okay, okay, now that I have a sweetheart, it's not Dad's turn to do anything."
Hearing that he would no longer be involved in this case, Ye Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief. However, she still had to find a way to meet Murong Yan and ask him to protect her brother.
"Dad, let's take Big Brother down from the tree so we can have something to eat together as a family." Seeing that Lord Shen wasn't that difficult to talk to, Ye Wanqing quickly went along with it and pleaded for Fu Yi.
Lord Shen called a servant over and coldly ordered, "Put that rebellious son down."
Then he changed his expression to a warm one, and said gently, "Xu'er, you are so kind. I'll do this for your sake. If anyone bullies you in the future, just tell Daddy."
The corners of Ye Wanqing's mouth twitched slightly as she watched his expression change so quickly. Her family was indeed very interesting.
After a while, Fu Yi came in hurriedly. Beads of sweat were dripping from the sides of his obsidian mask, and his inky hair was soaked with sweat. He was wearing a black robe, and when he came in, he brought a gust of heat with him, which was hot in the face.
It looks like it has been baked in the sun for a long time.
"Sister, are you awake?" Fu Yi saw her sitting on the bed leaning against the headboard and quickly stepped forward to touch her forehead. "That's great, the fever is finally gone. Sister, do you feel uncomfortable? Does your leg still hurt?"
"What are you making such a fuss about, you little brat? Your sister just woke up, why are you making such a fuss? If your sister hadn't begged for mercy, you wouldn't have been able to get down from the tree today."
Ye Wanqing was secretly puzzled. She had heard that the Lord of Shen used to be very fond of his eldest son. Whenever Fu Yi came back to the capital, he would always ask about his well-being and take care of him meticulously. But today, his attitude had taken a 180-degree turn.
So, out of the two children in the Marquis's Mansion, one must be scolded and punished?
That Shen Xu and Fu Yi really complement and counteract each other.
"I'm fine, I'm fine..." She quickly advised: "Dad, don't be angry with my eldest brother, he also cares about me."
"Sister, do you care about me so much?" Fu Yi was very moved and said, "Brother bullied you so much before, so you deserve to be punished now."
He simply put the blame on Murong Yan and said angrily: "What did Murong Yan do? He actually caused you, my sister, to be seriously injured and unconscious for so many days. I think he is just itching to get his hands on me."
"No, no, it's not his fault. It's me..."
"You don't have to speak for him. Don't worry, Xu'er. Big brother will take care of everything for you."
"Don't do that!" Ye Wanqing was so anxious that she stood up directly from the bed, but it pulled the wound on her leg again, and she grimaced in pain.
Lord Shen quickly called out, "My dear daughter! How is it?"
Then he accused: "You little brat, do you know how to talk? Look how anxious your sister is! She wants to hand the matter over to Murong Yan, then let Murong Yan handle it. You dare to interfere and I'll break your hand."
Fu Yi was also anxious, and hurriedly went to support Ye Wanqing's arm, letting her sit down carefully, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my sister doesn't allow me to interfere, so I won't interfere.
But we have suffered such a great injustice, we can't just let it go. Can you tell me what happened that day, who stabbed you and caused you to be unconscious for so long?
Ye Wanqing was suddenly in a dilemma. She didn't know who stabbed her. She only knew that her father and the man surnamed Jiang were among them.
And she had no idea who the person was who kept saying he wanted to kill her.
However, if the whole thing were to be told in detail, her elder brother Ye Fan would definitely suffer.
At this moment, Chen Xu's father and brother will definitely seek revenge on Murong Yao and his gang to vent her anger, but she also wants to protect her brother Ye Fan, so she can only hope that Murong Yan will help her.
So she could only say vaguely: "They are all wearing masks, I don't know who they are."
Lord Shen gently patted the back of her hand and soothed her, "Don't worry, Dad will write the memorial tomorrow. He Murong Yao and the Liu family are the first to escape, so I will report them first.
Well, my dear daughter must be hungry, let’s have our meal here.”
Seeing that they didn't pursue the matter any further, Ye Wanqing nodded quickly and changed the subject.
The family had dinner in Shen Xu's bedroom. Although her father and brother cared about her in every way, Ye Wanqing was still nervous and spoke very carefully, for fear that she would say something wrong and arouse suspicion from her father and brother.
......
East Palace.
Murong Yan had been whipped fifty times and was lying on the bed very weakly, although he was fully prepared this time and wanted to compete head-on with Minister Liu and Murong Yao.
Unexpectedly, Lord Shen suddenly appeared.
He was arrested and impeached, and then he received fifty lashes.
Minister Liu and Uncle Ling were both fined and had to undergo investigation by the Dali Temple.
This is obviously the emperor's method of checks and balances. Minister Liu handed it over to the Dali Temple. What can be found out since they all have the surname Liu?
Both sides took a step back and made things less serious.
But Lord Shen had set his sights on him, and threatened that so many of his crimes were enough to dethrone him from his position as crown prince.
He trembled under the pressure from his father-in-law.
It is said that Miss Ye is still in a coma. Several waves of people were sent out to investigate, but they were all stopped outside the Marquis' Mansion.
It seems that Lord Shen is determined to break up the couple.
His and Qingqing's relationship journey was too bumpy.
Murong Yan suddenly remembered the words she cried when she was unconscious, and quickly sat up and ordered: "Help me up, I want to go to the Marquis' Mansion myself, I want to see Qingqing..."
"Your Highness, you are still injured and under house arrest, so you cannot go to the Marquis' Mansion."
