Chapter 044: A madman who kills without blinking an eye
Because he witnessed Shen Ningyuan killing people without blinking an eye.
Chen and Ji Zehai trembled with fear when facing her.
They were afraid that in the next second, Shen Ningyuan would pull out the hairpin and take their lives.
Looking at the frightened looks of the two, Shen Ningyuan sneered in his heart.
It turns out that even people who do all kinds of bad things sometimes get scared!
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan looked at the two of them coldly, and said word by word: “When I return to the Shen family, I want to see little Douding, staying in my yard safely.”
Chen's eyes dodged, but she refused to admit it. "I, I don't know what you are talking about. Who is Xiao Douding? I don't even know him!"
"Whether mother-in-law really doesn't know him or is just pretending, you know it in your heart." Chen Ningyuan's eyes were even colder, "I still say that when I return to the Ji family, I must see the little bean intact!"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's tough attitude, Chen looked up and glared at her, but in the end she said nothing.
At this time, two more palace maids came over and tried to drag away Nanny Ming's body.
Shen Ningyuan took one last look at Chen, then turned and walked towards the two palace maids.
He took out a pure gold bracelet from his pocket, handed it to one of the palace servants, and said sincerely, "Please help me bury the body."
The palace maid glanced at Shen Ningyuan, took the bracelet silently, and dragged the body away.
Looking at the bloodstains left by the body being dragged on the ground, Shen Ningyuan had no expression on his face, but his heart was in turmoil.
She suddenly realized that if she made another mistake in this life, her parents, her elder and second brothers, her elder sister-in-law, and the little nephew in her belly would suffer the same fate as Nanny Ming.
What should she do then?
"Yuan'er, are you okay?"
Song Yaner walked to Shen Ningyuan and asked with concern.
Shen Ningyuan shook her head, “Sister-in-law, I’m fine.”
At this time, Concubine Ying also came back to her senses from her shock and walked over to the two of them with a smile.
He laughed loudly and said, "You are the first person in history who can make the queen so angry that she has to move out of the Pepper Room."
Shen Ningyuan restrained her emotions and whispered, "My Lady Yingfei, please forgive me for making fun of you."
"We are a family, it would be embarrassing if we don't talk." Concubine Ying held Song Yan'er's hand, "I haven't seen this sister for many years. Today, thanks to you, I have the opportunity to visit the palace."
"Come on, let's go to my bedroom for dinner." Song Ying'er smiled brightly. "When I came, I had already asked the small kitchen to prepare the food. It should be ready by now."
As she spoke, Song Ying'er took someone's hand and walked towards her bedroom.
Only Ji Zehai and Chen were left standing there stiffly.
"Master, where are we going?" Chen asked stupidly.
Ji Zehai glared at Chen, "Where are you going? Go back! Are you staying here and waiting to die?"
“If you hadn’t been incompetent, would we be led by Shen Ningyuan today?”
"You don't even know whether your son and Shen Ningyuan slept together!"
After a burst of manic outburst, Ji Zehai left the Pepper Room angrily regardless of Chen's reaction.
Chen stood there, looking at Ji Zehai's leaving back, feeling depressed.
Obviously, she was doing everything according to Ji Zehai's requirements.
But why did he put all the blame on himself?
Chen covered her chest with her hands to suppress the dull pain in her heart, and took two quick steps to catch up with Ji Zehai.
…
At this time, Shen Ningyuan and Song Yaner had been taken to her Shulan Palace by Song Yinger.
Shulan Palace, the name suggests.
After entering, Shen Ningyuan saw that various orchids were planted in every corner.
Moreover, these orchids are obviously often and carefully cared for.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly carefree Concubine Ying actually loves flowers.
"After all this time, you must be hungry. Come and eat something!"
Song Ying'er invited the two to take a seat.
Shen Ningyuan was calm and took a seat without any hesitation.
On the other hand, Song Yaner might be entering the palace for the first time.
Even in his sister's bedroom, he still felt a little reserved.
But fortunately, under Song Ying'er's crazy attack of picking up food, Song Yan'er gradually got used to it.
Song Ying'er was halfway through her meal when she suddenly said, "Don't be so reserved just because this is the imperial palace. Although there are many rules in the palace, as long as you don't run around and don't provoke anyone, nothing will happen."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan raised her head, looked at Song Ying'er, and asked, "Then did I not provoke the Queen today?"
"It's okay to provoke the queen." Song Ying'er raised an eyebrow and said, "Just don't provoke the one in Lin'an Palace."
As she spoke, Song Ying'er looked at Shen Ningyuan and said mysteriously: "In this palace, the emperor and the queen are not the most terrifying. The truly terrifying one is the one in Lin'an Palace..."
"Lin'an Palace?" Shen Ningyuan was startled.
But the next second, he also reacted, "Madam Yingfei is referring to the former crown prince Xie Wanzhou who was deposed by the emperor because of his disabled legs?"
Song Ying'er nodded heavily, "It's him!"
"Is he so scary?" Shen Ningyuan became even more curious.
In her previous life, she didn't pay too much attention to the situation in the palace.
I only vaguely remember Ji Yunchuan mentioned that this deposed prince eventually committed suicide by taking poison.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I still remember that before Xie Wanzhou became disabled in his legs, he was also a god-like figure.
Not only is he handsome, he is also proficient in both civil and military strategies.
At the age of ten, he was able to assist the emperor in governing Daning in an orderly manner.
At the age of twelve, he joined the army to go to war. He single-handedly cut off the head of the enemy general and defeated the enemy army.
Even his always harsh father couldn't help but sigh: With Xie Wanzhou's talents, if he sits on the throne in the future, he will surely ensure the prosperity of Daning and the peace and contentment of the people.
It’s a pity that God is jealous of his talent and he became disabled at such a young age.
Whenever he mentioned this, Dad would sigh for a long time.
Song Ying'er didn't notice the sigh in Shen Ningyuan's eyes, and said to herself: "He has been mentally ill since his legs were disabled and he was deposed as the crown prince. Even in a wheelchair, he would carry a long sword and kill people in the palace. Even the queen mother went to visit him and was almost beheaded by him."
"Your Majesty was afraid that he would get bored if he stayed alone for too long, so he sent a palace servant to bring his old warhorse to him to keep him company. But he chopped off its head the next day, staining the entire Lin'an Palace with blood."
"Since then, the entire palace has known that the deposed crown prince has become mentally ill and has become a madman."
"In this huge palace, the most terrifying person is this madman."
Song Ying'er smiled softly as she spoke, "But it doesn't matter. His Majesty has sealed the Lin'an Palace. As long as you don't get close to it casually, you won't be beheaded!"
"Thank you, Concubine Ying, for the reminder. Ning Yuan will definitely keep it in mind and will not provoke him." Shen Ning Yuan nodded in thanks.
"You are Yan'er's sister-in-law, which means you are also my sister-in-law. You are a newlywed and widowed woman, and now you have lost your husband. I should pay more attention to you."
"Eldest sister!"
As soon as Song Ying’er finished speaking, Song Yan’er shouted loudly, and then her eyes swept towards Shen Ningyuan.
Seeing her lower her head and unable to see the expression on her face, Song Yaner's worry became even more evident.
Song Ying'er then realized that she had said the wrong thing and gave Song Yan'er an awkward smile.
At this time, Shen Ningyuan said: “Sister-in-law and Concubine Ying don’t have to worry, I don’t care about these things anymore.”
Seeing her calm attitude, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Afterwards, Song Ying'er looked at the sky outside and said with a worried look on her face, "However, I suggest that you go back early. The queen is petty and always seeks revenge. I'm worried that she won't let you leave the palace in peace."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan's heart sank.
She also had this premonition...
