Chapter 357 Tolerance
Xiao Huan saw with his own eyes that Shen Xi was still alive, so he couldn't be wrong.
That night, Shen Xian was burned to death. Shen Tang thought that it was unnecessary for the King of Qi to sacrifice his own Palace in order to kill Shen Xian. He did not expect that arson was a plan to escape.
But even though the Prince of Changping had cheated on the King of Qi to such an extent, the King of Qi actually allowed Shen Xian to live and give birth to the child...
The green hat is so warm to wear that you don’t want to take it off?
No.
That day in the courtyard, when the King of Qi discovered the affair between the Prince of Changping and Shen Xiang, he was so angry that he wanted to kill Shen Xiang and the Prince of Changping. He beat the Prince of Changping until his face was bruised and swollen. The Prince of Changping fought hard to save Shen Xiang. Shen Tang still remembered that Chen Qi came back and reported that the Prince of Changping wanted to hand Shen Xiang over to Concubine Ye for disposal.
The Prince of Qi brought Shen Xian back to the Prince of Qi's Mansion. In other words, it was Concubine Ye's idea to pretend that an assassin broke in and set fire to Shen Xian.
In order to ensure that the Changping Marquisate would continue to have descendants, Concubine Ye wanted her son to wear a cuckold for the rest of his life.
Shen Tang, "..."
Is this still the Concubine Ye she knows?
Yes, the King of Qi needs to rely on the Marquis of Changping to win the throne. Once the Marquis of Changping falls, the King of Qi will no longer have the possibility to compete with the King of Yu. However, the Marquis of Changping's son has bullied the King of Qi and let his bloodline pretend to be the King of Qi's descendants. Even if the King of Qi sits on that position in the future, the one who will inherit the throne will most likely be the son of the Marquis of Changping's son.
Is the Changping Marquisate supporting the Prince of Qi, or using the Prince of Qi to seize the throne?
Given Concubine Ye's cruelty, how could she allow such a thing to happen?
Marquis Changping helped Concubine Ye to harm many people, and he knew Concubine Ye's methods better than anyone else. In order to ensure that the family line would not end, he pretended to be dead and took Shen Xian out of the Prince Qi's Mansion and placed her in a separate courtyard, so that Shen Xian could give birth to the child in peace.
When that child grows up, won’t the King of Qi and Concubine Ye feel disgusted when they see him?
The Changping Marquisate relied on Concubine Ye and Prince Qi for its prosperity and wealth, but in the end, it all benefited from a man who cheated on Prince Qi. Could Concubine Ye tolerate this?
If Concubine Ye is not truly tolerant, she will take action sooner or later. There is no need for Marquis Changping to offend Concubine Ye for this. After all, he is just Concubine Ye's cousin. There are many people in this world who will abandon their efforts and destroy their bridges after crossing them.
No matter how Shen Tang thought about it, he felt that this was not something Concubine Ye would do, but it happened nonetheless.
Xiao Huan came to tell them about this and to check on Shen Tang. As Shen Tang was fine, he didn't stay long and said goodbye.
Xie Guimo sent Xiao Huan out of the house. When he came back, Shen Tang was still leaning on the small couch thinking about this. She looked at Xie Guimo and said, "No matter how I think about it, I feel something is wrong. Is this still Concubine Ye?"
Although the King of Qi and the Marquis of Changping are already tied together, they prosper and suffer together.
But the people who hurt others the most are their own people, and they are also the most unforgivable.
The King of Qi was certainly not someone who could endure such a great humiliation just for the sake of winning the throne.
Xie Guimo said, "It's indeed very unusual. Prince Yu once told me that the alienation plan didn't work. The relationship between the Marquis of Changping and the Prince of Qi remains the same, as if nothing had happened."
Not to mention Prince Yu, even Shen Tang had this feeling.
Unable to figure it out, Shen Tang stopped making things difficult for himself. No matter how hard they struggled, they would never be able to sit in that position again in this life.
However, thinking about the hunting incident where Prince Yu was almost killed, Shen Tang did not dare to say too much. However, as long as the emperor had more than one prince, Prince Qi, they would fight to the end. If it really didn't work out, there were still other ways to go.
In his previous life, he had not offended Concubine Ye and Prince Qi, but he was still harmed so miserably. Shen Tang did not dare to think about what would happen to them if Prince Qi won in the end. He was afraid that they would be cut into pieces, torn apart by five horses, and their bones would be ground into ashes.
Not daring to think further, Shen Tang quickly shook these things off from his mind.
Both Prince Qi and Concubine Ye can tolerate Shen Xian's life, and Shen Tang and Xie Guimo will definitely not take off Prince Qi's green hat. If Prince Qi likes to wear it, then let him wear it. It's good to leave a thorn between Prince Qi and the Marquis of Changping's Mansion.
Regarding the matter of the Fourth Master taking advantage of the situation to take in a concubine, the Old Lady called the Fourth Master into the house and scolded him severely. The two newly taken concubines were sold. The Fourth Master went to bring the Fourth Wife back. The Fourth Room was in chaos for a while, but it did not get completely out of control.
The second master and the second mistress were locked up in the ancestral hall by the prince for five days to reflect on their actions, and then they were released. After all, the second master held an official position, and the emperor had already punished them and they had learned their lesson.
After being released, the old lady went to the South Courtyard in person and scolded the second master severely, forcing him to sell Hongrui and Luxiu. She also gave a farm and two shops to the second wife to appease her.
The things were very practical, but they were far from making up for the grievances suffered by the Second Wife. Without the imperial edict, she would not be able to attend any banquets, big or small, in Kyoto in the future. She would soon be forgotten by the circle of noble ladies in Kyoto. She also wanted to find a good marriage for her son and daughter, but all her plans were ruined!
However, she was also at fault in this matter. It was she who instigated the old lady to give Hongrui Green Sleeves to Xie Guimo. The old lady gave her face, so she could only stop while she was ahead.
When Shen Tang found out that the old lady went to the South Courtyard, he immediately sent Chen Shan to eavesdrop.
Knowing that the old lady had given the farm shop to the second wife, Shen Tang, in the spirit of enjoying the fun, turned around and told the matter to the fourth wife.
When the fourth wife split up, the old lady gave things to the fourth wife, which made the second wife dissatisfied. Because of this, the relationship between the fourth wife and the second wife was not as harmonious as before.
Now that the old lady is giving the farm and shop to the second wife, even if the fourth wife knows about it, she will not agree.
This is not.
The fourth room also started to make a fuss.
Day by day.
There is always more melon to eat.
After one thing and another, the old lady had never been so tired as she had been in these few days.
The old lady was already seriously injured when she pretended to be sick last time. She had been recuperating these days and had finally recovered a little, but then she encountered these bad things.
Exhausted, he finally fell ill again.
