Chapter 61 White Lotus Reveals Its True Face
Seeing Shen Yutang being beaten in the street, Nangong Jing couldn't help but pull the reins and turned to look at the carriage.
Inquired.
"Your Highness...it was Prince Shen, no, it was Master Shen who was taught a lesson. He was beaten pretty badly. Do you want to tell them to stop?"
Nangong Jing's voice was not loud, but at this time, passers-by on the street stopped and looked over, and no one dared to make a noise.
So when he opened his mouth, Shen Yutang obviously heard it.
He immediately looked up at the carriage.
Then Xing'er lifted the curtain, revealing half of Murong Qing's face.
He didn't want her to see him in such a miserable state, and subconsciously tried to struggle hard, but someone stepped on his head hard and tied his hands behind his back, making him unable to move at all.
Jiang Wanning was sitting in the carriage and naturally saw this scene.
She originally wanted the Marquis to teach this rebellious son a lesson, but she didn't expect the Marquis to be as ferocious as a tiger and show no regard for the father-son relationship when he was cruel.
If someone who didn't know the situation saw this, they would probably think Shen Yutang was the son of his enemy!
She came this time to pick up Murong Qing and take her back to the Marquis' Mansion to pack up her things. She also wanted to brainwash her and train her heart to be hard as stone, so that she wouldn't be soft-hearted and forget the pain after the scar healed.
Seeing Murong Qing's eyes flickering with a look of reluctance, Jiang Wanning reached out and pressed the back of her hand.
Speak with great earnestness.
"If a woman isn't ruthless, her position won't be secure. Qingqing, although you've now returned to the position of eldest princess, the intrigues and deceptions of the court and the harem are a hundred times more dangerous than those in the backyard of a marquis's mansion."
If you can't be as hard as steel, even letting go of a private relationship, then your unborn child might become a bargaining chip for others to use against you. Do you want to be a puppet, or hold power and be your own master?
Hearing this, the reluctance and pity in Murong Qing's eyes slowly faded away.
She lowered her eyes and looked out the window of the carriage.
His eyes met Shen Yutang's and they faced each other directly.
Then she opened her red lips and replied to Nangong Jing.
"Don't pay any attention to a stray dog."
Jiang Wanning: Sure, sure! My daughter-in-law has grown up, and Qingqing has finally realized the truth!
Nangong Jing nodded slightly, also showing a satisfied expression.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Then he turned around and said to those people.
"You guys continue! I'm just passing by, Your Highness. I won't interfere with your martial arts exchange."
Onlookers: "..."
Is this really just a sparring match?! Someone almost got killed!
Watching the carriage drive away, Shen Yutang lay on the ground with his eyes wide open, and even though he was punched and kicked, he never took his eyes away.
Qingqing doesn't want him anymore.
His mother doesn't want him anymore.
It was clear that not long ago, he was still happy about becoming a father, and it was clear that a few days ago, he was still proud of his mother's amazing skills at the Silk and Bamboo Banquet.
But now... he was in such a miserable state, being ridiculed and bullied, even worse than a rat crossing the street.
So this is what it feels like to be looked down upon and neglected.
Without the status of a prince, without the protection of his father and mother, anyone can step on his head... hehe...
…
midnight.
Shen Yutang woke up from his coma in a daze.
Before he opened his eyes, he heard Murong Yan'er and Liu's discussion.
"Yan'er, how is your second brother? Is he seriously injured?"
"I'm afraid it's useless..."
"What?! Heng'er went to the military camp just fine, how could he be abused like this?!"
"They said that my second brother couldn't bear the humiliation from the soldiers and started a private fight, which led to him being expelled from the camp by the Marquis. On the way, he was retaliated against..."
"No! How could I not know Heng'er's personality? He would never cause trouble without reason! It was Jiang, that bitch Jiang, who wanted to harm Heng'er!"
Murong Yan'er frowned, how could she not guess the trick behind this.
She just could not have expected that Marquis Pingyang would indulge Jiang so much, and even be willing to be an accomplice to the evil woman Jiang!
"Mother, please stop crying. What's the point of crying? Shen Yutang has been deposed as the Crown Prince. Now anyone can step on him and treat him like a pig or a dog. I don't think the Marquis will ever take him back."
Liu was also panicked when she heard this.
"Then, what should we do now? Your father is in prison, Heng'er is useless... If Yutang can't return to the Marquis' Mansion, then he will be useless. What hope do we have?"
The two were talking.
A bloody arm suddenly stretched out from the bed curtain and grabbed Murong Yan'er's wrist, which startled her immediately!
"Brother Yutang...you're awake..."
Murong Yan'er froze for a moment before she forced herself to calm down and steady her mind.
Shen Yutang gripped her wrist tightly, almost crushing her wrist bones with such force.
"You—have never been sincere to me?"
Murong Yan'er was startled at first, then reacted: "You just heard... everything?"
Shen Yutang still stared at her.
"Answer me."
"snort!"
Murong Yan'er shook his hand away with force. At this point, she was too lazy to pretend with him anymore.
"So what? You don't have to glare at me like that. I finally got rid of you back then, and made Qingqing drink the medicinal wine and have an affair with you, even though I never had any interest in you! Who knew that Chen Yan would become famous in one battle, quickly rise to prominence and be made a marquis, letting you pick up the position of a prince for nothing? That's why I tried so hard to win you back.
But you are so useless that you can't even keep your position as a prince, and you were even driven out of the Marquis' Mansion by Jiang. You have fallen to a state worse than a stray dog! I was really wrong to bet everything on you! "
Upon hearing this, Shen Yutang immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and his fingers trembled with anger.
"On the eve of our wedding that year, was it you who drugged Qingqing and me? Did you also drug me a few days ago at Prince Ruyang's mansion? Did you and I ever…"
Murong Yan'er sneered.
"No! You were so drunk, it's impossible. Only someone with your stupid brain would believe that anything happened that night!"
Shen Yutang's face turned blue and purple, and his whole body was trembling.
"You, you're so vicious!"
Murong Yan'er disagreed.
"You call me vicious, but what do you think you are?! You're conceited, headstrong, and yet you're so soft-hearted that you can easily be fooled by anyone! Even if I didn't trick you, you'll be fooled by another woman in the future! Only a stubborn woman like Murong Qing would be so devoted to a fool like you!"
After saying that.
Murong Yan'er was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so she asked the maid to collect all the valuables that Shen Yutang had brought out from the Marquis' Mansion, and then left the inn with Liu.
Shen Yutang lay on the head of the bed and coughed up blood. The more he thought about it, the more regretful he became. He couldn't help but slap himself a few times.
He really deserves it!
…
Prime Minister's Mansion.
Hearing that Murong Yan'er had come to visit, Nangong Jing slowly walked out from the back of the hall.
"Ms. Murong, are you looking for my true identity?"
Seeing Nangong Jing, Murong Yan'er immediately stepped forward and said with tears in her eyes.
"Jing Xiang...you were deceived by my sister. I stole the mandarin duck pendant from her. I also have a crescent birthmark on my shoulder. I am the real princess!"
