Chapter 336 Catch the adulterer
There is joy everywhere in the Jiang family.
Big red lanterns are hung on the corridor, wedding characters are posted on the walls, and red silk is tied on the trees, the air is filled with joy.
Jiang Ning stayed in her boudoir. She knew that Shen Tang had come to the Jiang family. Pregnant women usually did not attend weddings or funerals for fear of being disturbed. She was happier than anyone else that Shen Tang could come.
But she was shy, and when she saw Shen Tang, her face turned red before she could say anything.
Shen Tang gave Jiang Ning the makeup she brought with her. It was a set of gold and jade jewelry with exquisite designs. More importantly, it matched Jiang Ning's temperament, which was dignified and graceful.
Jiang Ning liked it so much that she couldn't take her eyes off it.
Shen Tang and Princess Roujia sat down to talk with Jiang Ning. After all, after getting married, Jiang Ning would go to Qizhou with Young Master Jiang, and it would take at least one or two months for her to come back. In addition, Shen Tang could neither come to the Jiang family to see Jiang Ning off for her wedding nor go to the Jiang family to attend the wedding banquet tomorrow, so he could only take the opportunity to talk to her for a while.
But they didn't stay long, as the banquet was about to start, and the maid came to invite Shen Tang and Princess Roujia to take their seats.
The wedding banquet was noisy and lively, and lasted for an hour and a half.
After the banquet, Madam Jiang said to Shen Tang, "Pregnant women should not overwork. Go back and rest early."
Shen Tang nodded obediently. Xie Guimo came to pick her up and they said goodbye together.
After leaving the Jiang family, he took a carriage back to the Jingyang Palace.
On the way, Shen Tang asked Xie Guimo, "Did you know that my eldest brother went to Qianzhou to investigate a case?"
Xie Guimo said, "Sure enough, he went."
I don't know, but I'm not surprised.
Shen Tang looked at him.
Xie Guimo said, "Your eldest brother wanted to go to Qianzhou to investigate this case a while ago, but he just got married, and his father-in-law and Prince Ning refused to let him leave the capital, so he didn't go."
"The governor of Qianzhou and General Anxi were killed, and your second brother has returned to the capital. He will definitely go directly to Qianzhou."
Shen Tang said, "My eldest brother should be okay, right?"
Xie Guimo rubbed Shen Tang's soft lips and asked, "Who dares to kill your elder brother?"
Prince Ning never used his power to oppress others. For Xiao Huan, he used a tough attitude to suppress all the civil and military officials and adopted Princess Roujia so that Xiao Huan could marry into his Ning Palace.
If something happens to Xiao Huan in Qianzhou, Prince Ning can turn Qianzhou upside down.
Shen Tang also felt that no one dared to target her elder brother. In her previous life, when the King of Qi sat in that position, he could only take his time to kill her elder brother. What's more, now, she felt relieved.
The carriage gurgled forward, and soon the sound of horse hooves could be heard, followed by Chen Qi's voice, "Master, we've seen enough of the excitement in the courtyard south of the city..."
So fast?
Shen Tang couldn't wait to lift the car curtain.
The servant driving the carriage was Chen Shan. Without worrying about anything, Chen Qi told Shen Tang and Xie Guimo everything about the excitement he saw in the courtyard in the south of the city.
After Prince Yu finished his business, he rushed to the Jiang family to attend the wedding. Chen Qi had nothing to do, so he went to the small courtyard in the south of the city to watch the fun. He knew that the Crown Princess would definitely want to know the details of Prince Qi's adultery.
Chen Qi was the first to arrive at the courtyard in the south of the city, followed by the Prince of Changping, and then the King of Qi and the guards. They waited for a full half hour before Shen Xian arrived.
Shen Xian went there dressed as a maid, after all, she was under house arrest by Concubine Ye. Even if the guards of King Qi had ordered that Shen Xian be allowed to go out after being stopped, Shen Xian didn't know why the Prince of Changping was so anxious to find her. It just so happened that she also had something to find the Prince of Changping, so she didn't dare to delay and quickly found a way to leave the house.
The prince of Changping Marquis is no longer able to be humane. Besides, Shen Xi has long been his woman. The only thing that he cherishes about Shen Xi from head to toe is the piece of meat in her belly. That may be his only offspring in this life, so he has to be cautious.
He had said that unless it was an extremely urgent matter, Shen Xi was not allowed to look for him. Now that she had asked him out, it must be something important, so he came in a hurry.
The two met in the room where they had made love before. Shen Xian threw herself into the arms of the Prince of Changping. Although the Prince of Changping was unable to do anything serious, he still had a romantic nature. He couldn't do anything serious, but he could still kiss and hug her. After all, the girl in his arms was pregnant with his child, so he could just give the child face and not push her away.
The King of Qi was standing outside the window. When the Prince of Changping came to this courtyard, his face turned ashen. When he saw Shen Xian coming, his whole body was flushed with green.
He knew that the Queen's birthday banquet was held to ruin the marriage between Xie Guimo and Shen Tang and force Shen Xian on him. He always thought that Shen Xian was pushed to him by Xie Guimo, but he didn't expect that Prince Yu was involved, and he didn't expect that Shen Xian and the Prince of Changping had been in cahoots for a long time!
Even if Shen Xian and the Prince of Changping Marquis had not plotted against him, it was unforgivable that the Changping Marquisate had concealed such a big thing from her and his mother!
After the Second Branch was expelled from the Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion, not only could it no longer be of help to the Prince of Qi, it could even become a hindrance. The Prince of Qi and Concubine Ye could not tolerate Shen Ying, especially on the day of the wedding, when there was a heavy rain in Kyoto, and the Prince of Qi did not escape a single drop of rain.
At the beginning, when Concubine Ye wanted to kill Shen Xian in order to vacate the position of Princess Qi, Marquis Changping had no objection. However, once Shen Xian was found to be pregnant, the attitude of Marquis Changping's mansion changed.
First, he said that Shen Xian was born with a phoenix destiny and the baby in her belly was priceless. Concubine Ye always trusted the Marquis of Changping and believed his words without a doubt.
Who would have thought that Shen Xi was pregnant with the child of the Marquis of Changping!
Thinking about his trust in the Marquis of Changping's Mansion and how he was betrayed like this, the King of Qi wanted to kill someone!
The Marquis of Changping asked Shen Xian how her child was doing. Shen Xian said with a look of grievance, "You only care about the child and don't care about me at all. The Princess of Jingyang bullied me so much, and you didn't help me get revenge..."
The Prince of Changping was not happy to hear this. Did he think that he didn't want to do anything to the Prince of Jingyang?
He almost died at the hands of Prince Jingyang twice, and there was no one in Kyoto who wanted Prince Jingyang's life more than he did.
The Marquis of Changping didn't want to hear any of this nonsense. "Is this the reason you asked me to come here?"
Shen Xian was a little confused. "Didn't you send me a letter asking me to come?"
After being bored for a long time, they finally realized something was wrong. Chen Qi, who was hiding in the dark watching the fun, became anxious. Wouldn't this delay things?
You two look at me and I look at you.
A bad feeling suddenly arose in my heart.
Their affair was discovered!
"Who sent the letter to us?!" The Prince of Changping had a cold expression and murderous intent was revealed.
"it's me!"
A familiar voice came.
The sound was like a drum beating on the hearts of the two people.
The two men's bodies were stiff, as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
The two turned their heads and saw King Qi walk in with a sullen face.
Shen Xian was so frightened that her face turned pale and she hid behind the Prince of Changping.
The Prince of Changping is actually not much better.
He took Shen Xi back step by step, and only stopped when they reached the screen.
No man would allow others to cuckold him, especially someone of noble status like the King of Qi.
