Chapter 114 Brothers Killing Each Other
Since the mother accepted the imperial edict, it was equivalent to acknowledging her as her daughter.
Mother, she will never ignore her...
Every word Shen Jingyun said was sincere, and it seemed that he was really feeling it.
The eldest princess's eyes were sharp. "Don't worry, you will see Xie Changning when you return home."
With just one word, she sent Shen Jingyun away.
When Shen Jingyun left, his face was particularly gloomy. Was it the day he returned home?
She can wait.
When the time comes, she will make that bastard Song Wenjing and the eldest princess pay the price!
In the afternoon, Xie Changning took a nap. When she woke up, Mother Du came in excitedly.
"Madam, in the afternoon, when no one was around, Fu'an, who was with the Third Young Master, went out for a while. When he came back, he had a sack in his hand, and inside it looked like something alive."
She didn't know that Xie Changning had already sent people to secretly keep an eye on Shen Zhizhou and the people around him.
Xie Nan had already reported to Mother Du before she came in.
"I understand." It can be imagined that tonight will be very lively.
During dinner time, Xie Changning went to Qingsong Courtyard again. Not only did she ask someone to make ginseng soup for Shen Zhiyan, she also had dinner with Shen Zhiyan.
Shen Zhizhou was still waiting for her eagerly.
The reason was simple: ever since he was injured, his mother had been having dinner with him every night.
When he learned that Xie Changning had gone to Qingsong Courtyard and had dinner with Shen Zhiyan.
His face was distorted, his eyes were ferocious and terrifying, and he said in a gloomy tone, "Second brother, this is not my fault. You were the one who started it!"
Shen Zhiyan was naturally happy, he even felt that the injury he suffered today was worth it.
In the blink of an eye, it was late at night and everyone was asleep.
Shen Zhiyan took the medicine and fell into a deep sleep.
Suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his arm, as if he had been bitten by something.
"Qing Hui!" He hissed, suddenly opened his eyes, and felt something on his arm, slippery and slightly cold. He subconsciously reached out and grabbed it.
The next moment.
"What's wrong, young master?" The lights in the room came on and Qing Hui strode in.
"Ah! There's a snake! Master, let go." Without waiting for Shen Zhiyan to speak, Qing Hui stared at the thing in Shen Zhiyan's hand in panic.
Shen Zhiyan also saw clearly what was in his hand. It was a emerald green snake, and it was obvious that it was poisonous. His pupils shrank and he threw the snake away with his backhand.
"Why is there a poisonous snake in the room? Has the young master been bitten?" Qing Hui rushed forward and stepped on the snake.
"A snake bit my arm. Quickly send someone to inform my mother." Shen Zhiyan was sweating profusely. His face was pale and he felt his vision was blackening. It was obvious that the snake venom had begun to take effect.
He was afraid that there was still a snake on the couch, so he propped himself up and tried to get up, but he was a step too late and was bitten on the leg again.
"Young Master!" Qing Hui couldn't help but exclaim.
Hearing the noise, Qingfeng also rushed in. He immediately carried Shen Zhiyan to the warm room next door.
When Xie Changning arrived, Shen Zhiyan was already somewhat unconscious.
Qinghui and Qingfeng found a total of five poisonous snakes in the house.
"Zhiyan, don't be afraid. Mother is here and the imperial physician will be here soon. You will be safe." Shen Zhiyan tried his best to open his eyes and saw tears in Xie Changning's eyes. She looked at him with worry in her eyes and her voice trembled violently.
"Mother..." His nose felt sore and he felt as if his former mother had come back again.
Such a good mother...
"Ask someone to check for me, why is there a poisonous snake in Zhiyan's room? Who wants to harm Zhiyan?" Her words awakened Shen Zhiyan.
Shen Zhiyan's eyes were cold and gloomy.
In the mansion, besides his third brother, who else is deliberately trying to take his life?
Good, good, good, third brother is really good!
In this case, why should he care about the relationship between brothers?
Over there, Shen Zhizhou had been sending people to keep an eye on the news from Qingsongyuan. When he learned that Shen Zhiyan was indeed bitten by a poisonous snake, a triumphant smile flashed across his face.
As soon as my second brother dies, the title of Marquis will be his.
The imperial physician arrived quickly.
After seeing the poisonous snake that bit Shen Zhiyan, he immediately gave Shen Zhiyan an acupuncture treatment.
Fortunately, although this snake is poisonous, it is not fatal as long as it is controlled in time.
With acupuncture and herbal medicine, the poison in Shen Zhiyan's body was soon under control, but if he wanted to completely detoxify him, he would have to take medicine for a few more days.
"Thank God, Zhiyan, you're finally okay." Xie Changning looked frightened.
Shen Zhiyan also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Madam, I have already found out that only Fu'an, who serves the Third Young Master, went out today. He left with nothing in his hands, and came back with a sack in his hands. I have already brought him here." At this moment, Butler Zhao asked someone to bring Fu'an in.
Shen Zhiyan looked as if he had expected it.
Xie Changning's eyes flickered slightly. Butler Zhao was indeed as useful as ever.
Her brows furrowed, "Is there some misunderstanding here?"
Shen Zhiyan didn't want to hear what she said. "I also think this matter is very strange. Why did Fu'an want to harm me? Fortunately, this matter is not difficult to investigate. We can find out the answer at the first trial. To prevent the brotherhood between me and my third brother from being damaged, please make sure to investigate this matter thoroughly."
"Fu'an, tell me, what's going on with these poisonous snakes?" Xie Changning's eyes were sharp.
Fu An's eyes dodged, "Madam, I am innocent! What venomous snake? I don't know anything about this matter."
Shen Zhiyan glanced at him coldly and said, "Mother, it seems that torture is not an option. Why not have someone drag Fuan out and beat him until he confesses."
Xie Changning was very pleased with what she said, and she glanced at him.
Butler Zhao immediately ordered someone to drag Fuan out.
"Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of the board hitting flesh was heard.
After a few beatings, Fu An confessed everything, "Madam, please spare me! The Third Young Master asked me to buy these poisonous snakes. I was just following orders. As for what the Third Young Master wanted these snakes for, I have no idea."
"Shut up! I don't believe my third brother is such a person. He and I have always had a deep brotherly bond. How could he harm me?" Shen Zhiyan's face was filled with anger. He raised his eyes and looked at Xie Changning. "Mother, why don't you ask someone to invite my third brother here so he can confront him face to face?"
"I don't believe the prefect is such a person either. He has always respected you as his second brother. If you say someone else harmed you, I believe it. But if you say it was the prefect who harmed you, I absolutely don't believe it."
Xie Changning paused and said, "Someone, come here! Go and invite the Third Young Master over."
