Su Yuan's face was gloomy, and his gaze toward Su Wenyuan was as cold as if he were looking at a dead person.
Before he could speak, the servants behind him closed the door and bolted it shut.
Su Wenyuan looked at the two servants who had closed the door and realized that they were not people from Su Yuan's side.
The servants and household guards in the mansion had long been intimidated by her and didn't have the guts to do it.
Meng Qi sensed Su Yuan's ill intentions and quickly became on guard.
Su Xian jogged over from behind and stopped in front of Su Yuan. Before he could say anything, Su Yuan slapped him across the face.
The slap was quite forceful, and Su Xian fell to the ground, looking at Su Yuan with a wronged expression.
Without saying a word, they started hitting him.
"Stealing jewelry and spreading it around, do you think it's something to be proud of?" Su Yuan rebuked angrily.
He wasn't paying attention, and Su Xian caused such a big mess.
First there was the conflict between Su Wenyuan and him, then the scandal created by Wang Shi, and now there's the matter of Su Xian stealing things. The Su family is truly rotten from top to bottom.
Incredulity flashed in Su Xian's eyes. He had only just admitted it, and it had already spread!
Seeing that his shock was genuine, Su Yuan knew that this was Su Wenyuan's doing again.
Su Yuan glared at Su Wenyuan with hatred, then said to Su Xian with exasperation, "You're all my children, how come you don't have a brain?"
Su Wenyuan felt no joy at all hearing these words that were clearly a compliment.
They even felt they were being insulted, and the insults were quite vulgar.
He quickly denied it, saying, "My brain isn't inherited from you. I can only thank my mother. It's because you and Wang gave birth to these two that they are like you."
"Think about it carefully. If you were really smart, would you have chosen to abandon my mother at that time? You don't actually think that Father spared my mother's life so that you could ruin it, do you?"
Su Yuan didn't speak, but took a deep breath to calm himself down.
He was too easily angered when facing Su Wenyuan, which made him vulnerable to being led by the nose by her.
Su Xian also dared not speak, and carefully got up and stood behind Su Yuan.
I don't know how much his father knows, so let's not say anything for now.
After calming down, Su Yuan said, "I don't want to dwell on the past. You were just a child back then. Let's talk about today's events. You could have had a better solution, but you deliberately let people spread the word!"
“You schemed against your brothers and sisters and caused the Su family to lose face. Even if you are the Princess Consort of Chen, I have the right to discipline you. I am still your father.”
Su Wenyuan frowned, feeling somewhat nauseous.
"How many times do I have to say it? You're not worthy! I'm more like your father. There's nothing to say about today's events. You should spend your time disciplining your son." Su Wenyuan rolled her eyes and continued walking forward.
She brings more people here than she brings when she walks at night.
If we can't even beat these two servants, it'll be incredibly embarrassing.
Su Yuan shouted angrily, "Get her! Take her to the ancestral hall and make her apologize to the ancestral tablets!"
As soon as she finished speaking, two servants stepped forward quickly with expressionless faces. Before Su Wenyuan could figure out how they got there, the guards behind her darted out as well.
Before the fight even started, Su Wenyuan was already dazzled.
Just then, a loud bang came from behind Su Yuan.
The gate of the Su residence was shattered into pieces, with fragments flying everywhere, but none of them landed on Su Wenyuan.
A group of guards rushed in; they were all from the Prince Chen's residence.
Sheng Jingyu followed behind and asked unhurriedly, "What did Lord Su just say? I couldn't hear clearly through the door."
Su Yuan was startled, wondering why Sheng Jingyu had come.
He should be in the palace at this time, otherwise Su Yuan wouldn't have chosen this moment to attack Su Wenyuan.
Su Yuan had not dared to touch Su Wenyuan before, firstly because he did not have capable men and could not defeat the guards brought by Su Wenyuan.
Furthermore, they lacked sufficient confidence and a suitable opportunity.
It took me a lot of effort to finally gather all of these together today.
When news of Su Xian's theft was spreading like wildfire, Su Yuan was still with Sheng Yuan.
He just said Su Wenyuan wouldn't be in any danger, and he's already proven wrong so quickly.
Sheng Yuanhe gave him a suggestion: to teach Su Wenyuan a lesson.
Anyway, Sheng Jingyu has just been summoned to the palace and won't be out for a while, so there's plenty of time.
Su Yuan is her biological father, so even if he hit her, he wouldn't be guilty.
Sheng Yuanhe also lent his own guards to Su Yuan, who disguised them as servants.
Sheng Yuanhe felt that two were enough. The guards of Prince Chen's mansion were only so-so in terms of skill. The good ones were definitely all around Sheng Jingyu, while the ones around Su Wenyuan were all just pretty faces.
In this way, he used a combination of deception and trickery to provoke Su Yuan's anger, waiting for him to make a move against Su Wenyuan.
But no one expected that Sheng Jingyu would arrive at this time.
Su Wenyuan excitedly ran over, grabbed his arm, and asked, "Why are you here?"
"You've come at the wrong time?" Sheng Jingyu's tone was unfriendly.
Su Wenyuan said with a forced smile, "How could that be? It's just the right time! You have no idea, they were trying to kill me. They just suddenly appeared in front of me! They scared me to death!"
Su Wenyuan kept complaining, exaggerating as much as she could, and becoming more and more aggrieved as she spoke.
"Who wants to kill you? Don't make false accusations." Su Yuan was clearly starting to get anxious.
Su Wenyuan's mouth is going to talk him to death.
Su Wenyuan choked up and said, "You even yelled at me..."
Sheng Jingyu knew she was faking it, and everyone present knew it too, but there was nothing they could do.
"In the capital, someone dares to commit violence against the Princess Consort of Chen? Arrest them and take them back for questioning." Sheng Jingyu's nonchalant tone clearly showed that he didn't take the two of them seriously.
Meng Qi had been waiting for a long time and was eager to make a move.
Upon receiving the order, they swiftly moved forward and took down one of them. Before the other could even react, he was subdued by the others.
The whole process was very simple, and there was no fight.
Su Wenyuan stared in disbelief. If she had known they were this powerful, she wouldn't have needed Sheng Jingyu to come; she would have ordered their arrests immediately.
Su Yuan rushed forward in a panic, trying to save the two guards.
These two are Sheng Yuanhe's men; they can't be captured by Sheng Jingyu.
Meng Qi didn't tolerate him. He kicked him to the ground and then took the two guards away.
Before Su Yuan could even get up, he heard Su Wenyuan say, "They're arresting people over here. Why did you get involved? You probably got caught in the crossfire."
The word "accidental injury" alone explains Meng Qi's malicious attack.
Ignoring his injuries, Su Yuan said urgently, "Your Highness, these two people cannot be arrested, this is..."
"Think it over before you speak," Sheng Jingyu reminded him in a deep voice.
With the mansion gate shattered and Sheng Jingyu displaying such a display, a crowd of onlookers naturally gathered around.
Su Wenyuan deliberately asked, "Why can't these two people be arrested? Who are they working for? Why are they so hostile towards me? Do they want to kill me?"
Su Yuan angrily retorted, "Nobody wants to kill you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Meng Qi ran back, holding two daggers in his hand, and said, "These were found on the two of them."
This wasn't fabricated by Meng Qi; it was genuinely found through a search.
How could the guards around the Crown Prince not have some kind of weapon?
