When Shen Tingsi woke up, he found himself lying on a tattered straw mat.
He looked around. It was a dim and narrow old house, filled with all kinds of miscellaneous items that gave off a sour smell. The dust on the ground was almost a finger high. In the corners, there were a few fat, red-eyed rats jumping around, fighting for half a stinky steamed bun.
The Jiang family must be thinking of losing their heads. How dare they let a prince sleep in such a shabby house?
He was about to get angry when he accidentally saw a puddle of water on the ground beside him because the eaves were leaking.
A small face, the size of a palm, was reflected on the dirty water surface, and the delicate almond-shaped eyes belonging to a woman were looking at him in surprise and doubt.
Shen Tingsi was stunned for a long time before he suddenly realized that these eyes were his own.
He actually turned into Jiang Xiancao!
This realization was like a bolt of lightning. Shen Tingsi wanted to stand up and find his body, but Jiang Xiancao was so weak and dying that he had to use all his strength to move a finger.
He shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Someone, someone, come!"
As if in response to him, the moldy wooden door opened from the outside.
When he saw who it was, he was stunned again.
The person who came was Jiang Huaizhu. She was wearing an elegant satin skirt and a thick fox fur cloak. The pearl hairpins in her hair hung down between her eyebrows, making her face look cold and noble.
Shen Tingsi was stunned when he saw her rosy blood and light figure.
He couldn't help but think of what Jiang Xiancao said before she was bled. At that time, he just thought she was shameless and sophistry, but now seeing Jiang Huaizhu's completely different appearance in private, he suddenly realized that every doubt pointed out by Jiang Xiancao had traces to be traced and was not just groundless.
Jiang Huaizhu didn't notice his abnormality, and smiled proudly, "Sister came to see you with some supplements."
She waved her hand, and the two maids behind her brought various supplements and placed them in front of Shen Tingsi.
"These are all tonics given to me by the prince. They are worth a fortune outside. Hurry up and eat more, sister." Jiang Huaizhu tilted his head and spoke with concern.
Shen Tingsi stared at her intently, and after a while he uttered a hoarse voice:
"Go and ask Mr. Jiang to come over. I have something to say."
Jiang Huaizhu sneered disdainfully, "You haven't given up yet, thinking that if you say it a few more times, people will believe you, right?"
As she spoke, she quickly stepped forward, leaned over, and grabbed Shen Tingsi's wrist. Looking at the horrific winding wound on it, she smiled with great satisfaction, "So what if you are the eldest daughter of the Jiang family? My brothers favor me, and the prince treats you like a rag and a rag. You are destined to be my stepping stone in this life."
Shen Tingsi's expression was extremely ugly.
He didn't say anything and just wanted to pull back the wrist that Jiang Huaizhu was holding, but she held it even tighter.
"Don't worry, the prince and the brothers are already on the way."
Jiang Huaizhu has already planned it.
When the Ninth Prince and his brothers come over, this time she will make sure Jiang Xiancao dies on the spot.
She swallowed a pill in front of Shen Tingsi, and her originally rosy complexion suddenly became pale and haggard, and her body began to shake.
The next moment, Jiang Xiancao, who had transformed into Shen Tingsi, strode into the room, followed by the five young masters of the Jiang family.
Shen Tingsi's attention was completely attracted by his own body, and Jiang Huaizhu, who had his back to the newcomer, took advantage of the moment when he was distracted, swung his arm and slipped a dagger out of his sleeve. With his right hand tightly grasping Shen Tingsi's wrist, he stabbed the dagger into his own shoulder blade swiftly, and cried out in pain.
"girl!"
"The second young lady stabbed our girl!"
The two maids brought by Jiang Huaizhu screamed.
Chen Tingsi looked back in shock, and what he saw was the blood splattering from Jiang Huaizhu's body, and the smile she gave him as she leaned back.
…
Seeing Jiang Huaizhu injured, the five young masters of the Jiang family were shocked and angry.
Jiang Jinyan rushed forward and hugged Jiang Huaizhu in his arms. The fourth young master Jiang Jinan, who studied medicine, hurried forward to check her injuries and applied medicine to her to stop the bleeding with great concern.
Jiang Huaizhu had practiced several times with a dummy, and she had carefully chosen the place to make the cut. The wound looked scary, but it was just a minor skin injury and would not hurt any bones or internal organs.
But she acted like she was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe. Bright red blood kept flowing out from between her white fingers that were covering the wound. The scene was very horrifying.
She raised her pair of sparkling eyes and looked at Jiang Xiancao weakly, "Your Majesty, my sister has repeatedly tried to harm me. You must stand up for me!"
Jiang Xiancao shifted his gaze from Jiang Huaizhu to his own body.
Before revealing Jiang Huaizhu's true face, she had to shut up Shen Tingsi first.
Shen Tingsi was also looking at Jiang Xiancao.
But compared to Jiang Xiancao's calmness, he was like a wild beast that had lost its fangs and claws and was in a panic.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Chen Tingsi, regardless of his hoarse voice, shouted angrily:
"Get off me, you vile evil spirit!"
When Jiang Xiancao heard the noise, she immediately realized that her guess was correct. She and Shen Tingsi had indeed exchanged bodies.
She became the powerful Ninth Prince, while the real Ninth Prince was trapped in her original body, bearing all the grievances and injustices for her.
Now, Chen Tingsi was just an unfavored courtier in front of her, not even worthy of her taking action against him personally.
Jiang Xiancao looked at Jiang Jinyan with feigned displeasure, "My sister is acting crazy and talking nonsense, and you, as her brothers, don't do anything about it?"
Jiang Jinyan recovered from his shock and quickly covered Shen Tingsi's mouth. "You killed your sisters, yet you resorted to such a stupid trick to try to exonerate yourself. It's really unreasonable. Come, seal the second lady's mouth!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shen Tingsi shouted in a hurry:
"On the third day of last month, I hosted a banquet for you Jiang brothers and several other young masters at Qianwei Tower. Also present was Prime Minister Su's eldest son. His wife had just given birth to a son when he was caught having a mistress. They scratched his face, forcing him to wear a veil when going out. We told others that he had accidentally eaten poisonous wild fruit while outing, and that this had given him a rash. Besides the people at Prime Minister Su's residence, only a few of us knew about this!"
Jiang Jinyan paused, with surprise and doubt in his eyes.
