The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death

Chapter 313: Accumulation

Shen Tang looked over and saw Ginkgo lifting the curtain high. Shen Tang just saw the second wife coming out of a shop with a smile on her face. There was a lady beside her, and her demeanor was arrogant, just like in her previous life.

Shen Tang thought that the Second Wife was living a miserable life, but it made sense. After all, the Second Wife had a daughter who was the Princess of Qi. The people of the Prince of Qi's party knew that the Prince of Qi valued Shen Xian and the child in her belly. As the biological mother of the Princess of Qi, how could they not flatter her?

I don't know what flattery she said, but the second wife laughed so proudly, as if her daughter had become the mother of the country.

That smug smile was like a thorn piercing Shen Tang's heart, causing her sanity to collapse and hatred to fill her.

She originally wanted to keep the second wife and let the second brother come back to take revenge personally, but now she can't bear it for a moment.

"Chen Shan!"

Chen Shan rode over and asked, "What do you want, Princess?"

Shen Tang opened the car curtain and gave a few instructions.

Chen Shan agreed.

Shen Tang lowered the car curtain and closed his eyes.

The carriage crossed two streets and stopped in front of the gate of Pingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Seeing that it was the carriage from Prince Jingyang's Palace, the servant hurried over to help move the footstool. After Ginkgo got off the carriage, he helped Shen Tang down, and then Qiu Tong.

Shen Tang stepped into the mansion. Not long after he entered the second gate, Shen Luo came over and called out, "Second sister..."

Shen Tang asked, "How is Grandmother?"

Shen Luo shook her head. "Grandma's illness is extremely serious this time. She vomited all the medicine she took, and even vomited blood..."

Shen Tang's heart sank.

How could he get so sick that he vomited blood?

Because the old lady favored the second wife, even after the second wife was driven out of the Marquis' Mansion, the old lady still cared about the second wife. Shen Tang was angry in her heart and had angered the old lady many times, but the old lady was her grandmother after all, and Shen Tang didn't want anything to happen to the old lady.

Shen Tang took two steps at a time and walked towards Songhe Hall.

Inside the house, the imperial physician was taking the old lady's pulse. The old lady vomited all the medicine prescribed by the doctor, and even vomited blood. Mother Wang was frightened and quickly asked someone to send a letter to the palace to invite the imperial physician.

The imperial physician took the old lady's pulse for a long time. The old lady leaned on the large pillow, breathing weakly, "Doctor Li, tell me the truth, how long do I have left to live..."

Doctor Li said, "The old lady has too many things accumulated in her heart, which has damaged her foundation. Coupled with the grief, her condition is so serious. As long as she rests, she will definitely recover."

Too many things have accumulated...

These four words were like a basin of cold water, pouring over Shen Tang from head to toe.

There is nothing for the old lady to worry about in the eldest house. The eldest brother has been found and has become the Prince of Ning. Not only does the old lady not have to worry about him, but even his father doesn't need to be worried about him. The second brother has also been found. It's only the second house that the old lady wants to control but can't, and she torments herself with the thought every day.

Really, if it weren't for the old lady leaning on the big pillow with a pale face and looking seriously ill, Shen Tang really wanted to ask someone to send the old lady to the second master so that the mother and son could be reunited.

The imperial physician wrote out a prescription and said goodbye. Steward Li saw the imperial physician off.

Shen Tang walked forward. The old lady saw Shen Tang and asked weakly, "Why are you back?"

Shen Tang said, "Grandmother is ill, how could I not come back to visit? I know that Grandmother is heartbroken because of my second brother's assassination and fall off the cliff, but the imperial physician said that she has too much accumulated trouble in her heart, which has damaged her foundation..."

"Although I don't like Grandmother's constant focus on the Second Wife, I also don't want her to become ill because of missing her. When Father comes back, I will persuade him to send you to Second Uncle's place to recuperate."

Shen Tang's face was calm, and every word he spoke made Mother Wang and the Fourth Madam, who were serving beside him, tremble with fear.

The old lady was almost terminally ill, so why was Tang'er still making her so angry? However, the fourth wife also knew that it was not Shen Tang's fault that she was so angry. The old lady really wanted to see the second master, but she could not go to the second room. The second master could not enter the Marquis' Mansion. Since the second master was driven out of the Marquis' Mansion, the old lady had never seen the second master again.

The Fourth Wife could also understand the Old Lady's longing for the Second Master. After all, he was her own flesh and blood, and it was impossible for her to stop thinking about him.

But the second young master has been living away from home for more than ten years, all thanks to the second wife. Tang'er has already shown mercy to the second wife. Now that she knows that the second young master is in trouble, she is so angry that she wants to cut the second wife into pieces. Knowing that the old lady is still thinking about the second wife in her heart, it would be strange if she is not angry.

The old lady leaned on the big pillow, coughing again and again, almost fainting.

Shen Tang was both angry and heartbroken.

Shen Tang took a deep breath, looked at the Fourth Madam and said, "Send someone to invite the Second Master."

The fourth wife said, "The Marquis's place..."

Shen Tang said, "I asked for the invitation. If father blames me, I will take full responsibility."

The fourth wife nodded and asked someone to pass the message to Manager Li.

Shen Tang glanced at the old lady and turned to leave.

Ginkgo couldn't help but ask, "Why did the Crown Princess allow the Second Master to enter the mansion?"

A sneer flashed in Shen Tang's eyes.

Meeting comes at a price!

I hope the second master can bear this maternal love.

The old lady wanted to see her son so much that she was extremely ill. She should just let her see him. Even though she was so ill, she couldn't really be sent to the second house, otherwise her father would be branded as unfilial. So she should let the second master come to see the old lady.

She is a filial granddaughter.

She will impress the old lady.

Shen Tang didn't go anywhere and just waited in Songhe Hall.

When the Fourth Madam sent someone to invite the Second Master, the Second Madam had just returned. She wanted to visit the Old Madam together. The Second Master was not so stupid as to not bring the Second Madam along.

The second wife had to enter the inner courtyard alone, but as soon as she entered the inner courtyard, a stone flew over and knocked the maid unconscious.

The maid fell to the ground.

The second wife turned around and saw a masked man in black. She screamed in fright.

The man drew out his sling sword and slashed at him.

He didn't cut her neck directly, he just shaved the second wife's hair.

The golden hairpin fell to the ground, and the rest of her hair was loose. The second wife fainted immediately.

The man put away his sword, dodged and disappeared.

In the main hall, Shen Tang was sitting there drinking tea, with Shen Luo accompanying her.

Soon the maid came in and said, "Princess, the Second Master is back."

Shen Tang raised his eyelids and continued drinking tea.

She had no interest in watching the scene of the deep affection between the Second Master and the Old Lady. It was easy to imagine how happy the Old Lady was to see the Second Master.

Heart disease can only be cured with heart medicine.

The old lady thought that Shen Tang was lying to her, but she didn't expect that he really invited the second master back. She should have been happy, but the old lady didn't feel a trace of joy in her heart, only uneasiness and even a faint fear.

The second master wants to take the old lady away, but the old lady will definitely not agree. It is a well-known fact in Kyoto that the second house is causing trouble for the first house. If she does not stay in the Marquis' Mansion and wants to live in the second house, everyone in Kyoto will say that she cannot distinguish right from wrong.

Once you leave, you can never come back.

The old lady said, "It was Tang'er who asked you to come back. Your eldest brother doesn't know. Don't make things difficult for Tang'er. Just go."

The second master's eyes were red.

He didn't want to leave and wanted to spend more time with the old lady.

A maid came in quickly and said, "Second Master, something bad has happened! Someone broke into the mansion and cut off the Second Madam's hair..."

The second master's heart was shocked and he felt cold all over.

The old lady didn't dare to keep the second master anymore, so she asked him to leave, and the second master stood up.

As soon as the Second Master left, Shen Tang came out of the main hall and ordered, "Catch that messenger!"

Shen Tang's prestige in Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion was second only to Shen Sui. As soon as she said this, the two maids immediately captured the maid who delivered the message.

"Hit me!"

"I've said this before. If anyone dares to pass on news about the Second House to the Old Madam, I won't let them off lightly. You all think I'm joking. Today, I'll give her thirty lashes in front of you. The next time anyone dares to spread news about the Second House, good or bad, they'll be beaten to death!"

The maid was pressed on the bench, and the sound of slapping the board quickly spread.

The old lady heard it and asked, "What's going on?"

The maid brought in the medicine and replied, "A little maid offended the eldest aunt and was punished."

The beating sound hasn't stopped yet, which maid would dare to tell the truth to the old lady?

Besides, Shen Tang did this for the old lady's own good.

This maid was from Songhe Hall, but the news came from the front yard. Shen Tang did not spare the maid who delivered the message from the front yard. If the message was not spread from the front yard, the inner courtyard would not know.

Shen Tang did not go to the maid in the front yard in person. If Ginkgo went to pass on the message, Manager Li would have someone beat her.

Shen Tang came back to visit the old lady, but did not say anything to her. Instead, he sat with the fourth wife for a while.

When Shen Tang left, Shen Sui just returned home. Shen Sui asked, "Did you ask the people from the second house to come back to see your grandmother?"

Shen Tang said, "Except for my daughter, no one in the mansion has the courage to do this."

Shen Sui frowned and was about to ask why when a servant came over on horseback and said, "Oh no! The second master returned home and had his leg broken by a masked man in black!"

Shen Sui was stunned and looked at Shen Tang.

Shen Tang curled the corners of his mouth, but didn't say anything, but his expression showed it.

That’s right, it was my daughter who was beaten.

Shen Tang looked at Steward Li and pointed at the messenger, saying, "The second branch has been expelled from the Marquis' Mansion. The old lady is ill, and you dare to bring such news to the Marquis' Mansion, making the old lady worried? Beat him!"

"From now on, if anyone from the Second House is sent to deliver messages, I will beat them up every time I see them!"

Manager Li winked.

Several servants rushed over, grabbed the man, and beat him up.
