Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 485: Borrowing Lin Rouxin's Name 1

Chapter 485 Borrowing Lin Rouxin's name

Shen Wantang gave Xiao Qingxi a mocking smile: "Xiao Qingxi, your title of princess is gone, haven't you learned to use your brain when speaking and doing things?"

"You said I killed Chu Yanluo, then show me the evidence! If you can't show me the evidence, then you are framing me!"

"Or maybe, you are trying to frame me for someone else, right? Someone else killed Chu Yanluo, but you insist that I was the one who killed him. Who are you trying to cover up the truth for?"

"Are you trying to cover up for yourself? Did you kill Chu Yanluo?"

Xiao Qingxi's face changed: "What nonsense are you talking about! Why would I kill Chu Yanluo?! I have no grudge against her!"

"I have no grudge against you, but you are always looking for trouble with me?"

"I have a huge grudge against you!"

Xiao Qingxi gnashed his teeth and stared at Shen Wantang: "Prince Ning's Mansion was originally my home, and my father and mother were also mine, but now they have all been taken away by you! They were deceived by you and even the housekeeper's power was given to you! I will never let you go, I will definitely send you to the Ministry of Justice prison!"

After she finished speaking, she snorted coldly and turned away.

Shen Wantang looked at the people kneeling on the ground and said calmly, "Everyone, get up and go out. Go do what you need to do."

"Thank you, Princess!"

The maids and old women all breathed a sigh of relief and left as if they had been pardoned.

After everyone left, Shen Wantang's face gradually turned cold.

She really thinks she is a soft persimmon and wants to pin the crime of murder on her. Then let these brother and sister have a taste of her power.

"Dujuan, grind the ink. I want to write a letter."

"Princess, who are you writing to? Miss Gu?"

"Not for her."

"Who is that for?"

"Lin Rouxin."

Du Juan's eyes lit up, she knew that the Crown Prince's Consort was going to deal with Xiao Qingxi!

She hurried to the desk and began to grind the ink diligently.

After a while, Shen Wantang finished writing the letter: "Send someone to deliver it to the Huo family. It can only come back after it is delivered to Lin Rouxin. Remember, let our eldest lady also know that I sent a letter to Lin Rouxin."

"Yes!"

Dujuan took the letter and went out quickly.

Qin Xin couldn't help but ask, "Princess, are you going to join forces with Miss Lin?"

Shen Wantang said calmly, "It can't be considered a collaboration. I just want to borrow her name. She doesn't need to do anything. However, I think if she knew what I was going to do, she would be happy to see it happen."

Qin Xin couldn't guess what she was going to do, so she didn't ask too much. She just told Shen Wantang all the new information she had heard in the past two days.

"Princess, I heard that Miss Liu is in a very bad situation at home! She used to be the one who had the final say in front of her brothers and sisters, and she was arrogant. But now the situation is reversed. The other young masters and young ladies of the Liu family all look down on her!"

"She lost such a big person, and Elder Liu doesn't like her anymore. It seems that he wants to marry her off far away and doesn't want to keep her in the capital. Madam Liu has met with several ladies in the past two days, hoping to ask them to act as a matchmaker, but unfortunately, no one is willing."

"Miss Liu is not only afraid to go out and see people, but she can't even eat. If our prince hadn't visited her every day and tried every way to coax her to eat, she would have starved to death!"

Qin Xin finished speaking quickly, and suddenly realized that she had said too much. She hurriedly said, "Please forgive me, my concubine. I said the wrong thing! I deserve to die!"

Shen Wantang smiled faintly: "How could you say the wrong thing? Isn't it true that the prince goes to coax her every day? Do you think I care about this? If I care about such a small matter, I would be angry to death. Keep talking, I'm listening with gusto, don't stop."

Seeing that she was really not angry, Qin Xin continued, "Prince's Consort, you don't know, Miss Liu is so shameless! She told the prince that she would only be the principal wife and she would never be a concubine. It's obvious that she wants to force the prince to divorce you!"

"Lord Liu wanted her to marry far away, but she refused to do so. She just clung to the prince and wanted to be the prince's consort in our palace!"

Shen Wantang was not surprised by all this. She was just a little curious: "Qin Xin, how come you know so much about the Liu family? Do you have any acquaintances in the Liu family?"

Qin Xin nodded: "Yes! I know the maidservant beside Miss Liu, Zhuying."

"Zhu Ying? Since she is Liu Nanshi's personal maid, why would she tell others about her private affairs? Can this Zhu Ying be trusted?"

"What the Crown Princess doesn't know is that Miss Liu is well-educated, gentle, and talented in the eyes of outsiders, but in fact, she is very harsh to her servants. Zhuying is almost dying from her torture, especially after this incident. Miss Liu had no place to vent her anger, so she took it all out on Zhuying."

"Did she beat or scold Zhuying?"

"No, Miss Liu doesn't scold or hit anyone. She likes to punish her servants with some high-sounding excuses. For example, in the summer, she asked Zhuying to carry charcoal fire, and she was not allowed to take out the meat even if it was cooked. The charcoal fire had to be burned out. In the winter, she would ask Zhuying to stand in the snow and hold ice cubes. She would not enter the house until all the ice melted."

Shen Wantang was stunned. Is Liu Nanshi so cruel?

"Miss Liu also likes to reward Zhuying with excellent gold wound medicine, scar removal cream and the like. If Zhuying is sick, she will be particularly anxious to find a doctor for her, and will even feed her medicine herself. People who don't know will think that she treats her servants like her own sisters!"

Shen Wantang was silent for a long time before asking, "So how did Liu Nanshi punish Zhu Ying this time?"

"This time, she asked someone to cook a pot of meat soup, saying that Zhuying was too thin and needed to replenish her body, so she forced Zhuying to drink it."

Shen Wantang was a little puzzled: "Is there something wrong with this broth? How can this be considered a punishment?"

"The soup is actually fine. It's made with fresh mutton. Miss Liu drank it herself. The only problem is that Miss Liu drank the slightly cooled soup, while Zhuying drank the freshly boiled soup. After Zhuying finished drinking it, she was speechless."

Qin Xin couldn't help but sigh, "I'm afraid Zhuying's throat has been burned. Although she has been asking doctors and getting medicine these two days, she is in so much pain that she has difficulty swallowing. She can't drink any medicine. She is in so much pain that she can't sleep for nights. She probably thinks she won't live long, so she doesn't even accept the money from me. She just sends messages every day."

Shen Wantang felt heavy in her heart when she heard this. She knew that Liu Nanshi was good-for-nothing, but she didn't expect that she was such a good-for-nothing!

Xiao Qingyuan praised such a person to the sky, and he even killed his wife in order to marry Liu Nanshi!

She showed a cold smile on her face: "Qin Xin, tell Zhu Ying to get good treatment and live well. She will see that the evildoers are punished."
