Chapter 17 Come to the door
"This damn Xie Changning, she wants to force my Zhixu to death. If anything happens to Zhixu, I will make her pay with her life!" Qin first scolded Xie Changning.
Then he hurriedly said, "Quickly send for the imperial physician."
Mother Huang quickly sent someone to call the imperial physician.
Qin hurried out of Songbaiyuan. Don't get me wrong, she was not going to see Shen Zhixu, but to find Xie Changning.
The news of Shen Zhixu's fainting quickly spread throughout the Marquis' Mansion.
"Xie Changning, you are such a heartless person! Zhixu is almost dying, and you, as his mother, don't even go to see him. What did Zhixu do wrong? Didn't he just want to work in the Ministry of Revenue and then ask you to return those things to me? You want to kill him..." Before they even entered the door, Qin started scolding.
How could she know that Doctor Zhao was treating Xie Changning.
As soon as she entered the room, she found that Doctor Zhao was also there, and she was stunned.
Shen Zhiyan and the others were also there.
Each of them had an ugly look on their face.
Why is this?
Like the Qin family, they came to make trouble with Xie Changning as soon as they received the news that Shen Zhixu had fainted.
It’s easy to imagine what good words can come out of their mouths.
Xie Changning lay sick on the couch. In fact, she was the first to receive the news. Shen Zhixu had put on such a big show for her. He had to let people know how he, as a son, had forced her, a mother, in private.
Doctor Zhao looked up at everyone and thought to himself, "What kind of people are in the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion? Apart from the Marquis' wife, there's not a single decent one. The daughters are all crooked, even the old lady is the same."
"Madam Hou has been overly worried and overworked over the years, leaving her with many hidden ailments. Now her chronic illness has returned with rage. She must rest and recuperate, otherwise her lifespan may be shortened."
Everyone heard Doctor Zhao's words clearly.
For a moment, the expressions of Shen Zhiyan and his children were extremely complicated.
This was also something Qin had not expected, that Xie Changning was so seriously ill.
"Please ask Doctor Zhao to go and see my good-for-nothing son." Xie Changning said while coughing.
Doctor Zhao nodded.
Su Qingwan supported Xie Changning, and they all went to Wensong Courtyard together.
These days, Shen Zhixu has not mentioned Su Qingwan.
Xie Changning glanced at Mother Du calmly.
Mother Du gave her a look, and a smile flashed across Xie Changning's eyes.
Shen Zhixu is such a loser. He couldn't stand being hungry for just a few days. He is really useless.
Everyone gathered around the couch. Doctor Zhao gave Shen Zhixu a few injections, and he opened his eyes. His eyes were bloodshot, and he saw Xie Changning at a glance.
"Mother, I want you to return those things to Grandmother. We are all family, why are you being so petty? And I want to take up a position at the Ministry of Revenue."
Look, even at this point, all he is thinking about is Qin and himself.
Doctor Zhao, “…”
There are outsiders here now!
Qin said hurriedly, "Zhixu, what nonsense are you talking about? Grandmother gave those things to your mother willingly. Our mansion owes her this. There's no point in asking for them back. I won't let you say such things again."
They can just talk about these things in private.
Xie Changning lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes. This was the benefit of having Doctor Zhao here.
Shen Zhixu was stunned for a moment before he realized, "It was my son who made a slip of the tongue. Please don't blame me, mother!"
Because he was full of resentment towards Xie Changning, even though he said he admitted his mistake, his tone and expression were still cold.
Doctor Zhao interrupted, "As long as the prince eats well and takes his medicine on time, he will be well again soon. But the Marquis' wife should stop overworking herself."
Having said this, he said goodbye.
As soon as he left, Shen Zhixu asked to speak to Xie Changning alone.
Qin led everyone away.
Soon, only Xie Changning and Shen Zhixu were left in the room.
After being reborn, this was the first time she met her eldest son.
She would never forget how he took out the white silk he had prepared in advance, wrapped it around her neck in circles, and kept telling her to go on her way.
He struck her so hard that he nearly broke her neck.
The pain of suffocation dragged her into the abyss of death little by little.
The feeling of being strangled is really uncomfortable.
But what she could not accept the most was that the one who took her life was the child she had carried for ten months.
"Don't you want to go to the Ministry of Revenue? Okay, I promise you. Not only that, I will never interfere in your affairs again. No, it's the same for all of you. As you wish, I will never control you again." Xie Changning spoke first.
Do you think going to the Ministry of Revenue is a good thing?
A major case will soon occur in the Ministry of Revenue.
By then, no one in the Ministry of Revenue will be able to escape.
It's great that he wants to go.
"Mother, do you agree?" Shen Zhixu was a little bit incredulous. His dull eyes suddenly flashed with light, so that he didn't take Xie Changning's other words to heart at all.
Xie Changning nodded.
Shen Zhixu thought she had finally compromised, and he couldn't wait to put forward his request, "It's not difficult for mother to let me eat and take medicine. In addition, I also want mother to promise me one thing..."
He wanted to bring Xizhi and Qianer back home.
Before he could finish his words, Mother Du suddenly rushed in. "Something's happened to the Madam. A mother and son came to the door, crying and shouting, wanting to see the Crown Prince. They kept saying they were the Crown Prince's wife and child. The onlookers were in an uproar. If this matter isn't handled properly, I'm afraid the Crown Prince's reputation will be in jeopardy."
