Phi-Fic Chapter 164 Son-in-law
Chapter 164 Son-in-law
After Xie Guimo left, the more Shen Tang thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.
It was such a coincidence that she didn't believe there could be so many coincidences in the world. Thinking about how the Second Madam hastily promised Shen Ran to the eldest son of her own family, the Wang family, in her previous life, Shen Tang felt a little uneasy. Although the eldest son Wang had married the eldest daughter of the Yongning Earl's Mansion in this life, the Second Madam was not a good person. If Shen Ran was really the daughter of Princess Jinde and her husband, she would be like a talisman.
The second wife will definitely hold it firmly in her hands.
She had to remind Shen Ran from the side, lest she be pushed into the fire pit by the Second Madam like in her previous life. It was not convenient to go to the South Courtyard to look for Shen Ran. Shen Tang called Si Er in and ordered, "Go find the Third Miss and ask her if she took my fan by mistake."
After Si'er left and Shen Tang served tea, she did not bring the round fan into the palace. Shen Ran should have guessed that she had something to talk to her about. Besides, as long as Shen Ran did not leave the house, nothing would happen in the next one or two days.
Shen Tang felt that she was too impatient. Actually, she could have just given a reminder when she saw him tomorrow. However, Si'er came back not long after he left and said, "Miss, the third lady went to the Wang family with the second wife and hasn't returned yet. I'll ask her when she returns."
Went to Wang's house?
Shen Tang's heart skipped a beat.
Shen Xian was definitely going to marry the Second Prince, and it would happen very soon. The Second Wife didn't stay in the mansion to prepare Shen Xian's dowry, but instead had the leisure to take Shen Ran to the Wang family...
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
Especially since Shen Ran married the eldest son of the Wang family in her previous life, Shen Tang had to be on guard.
Shen Tang stood up and walked towards the window. She looked around and saw Chen Shan appear. "What do you want, Princess?"
Shen Tang said, "Please help me go to the Wang family and see what the second wife is doing there..."
Chen Shan was quite familiar with helping Shen Tang track the second wife. After agreeing, he jumped and disappeared through the window.
It would take a while for Chen Shan to come back from Wang's house. Shen Tang had nothing to do, so she read a book to kill time. When she got tired of reading, she did some needlework and waited patiently for Chen Shan to come back. However, she waited until the evening, but she did not see Chen Shan come back. Instead, she received the news that the second wife had returned.
Shen Tang put down the embroidery frame and rubbed her brows with her hands. Si'er came in and said, "Miss, the Second Madam is back, but the Third Madam didn't come back with her..."
Shen Tang frowned, "The Third Miss didn't come back with the Second Madam?"
Si Er shook his head, "The Second Madam came back alone, and she looked very unhappy..."
What you fear will come true. Did something really happen to Shen Ran in the Wang family?
But even if something happened to Shen Ran and the second wife came back, there was no need for Chen Shan to stay in the Wang family. Let's not let something happen to Chen Shan.
Shen Tang was already impatient, and now he was in agony. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, there was a knock on the window.
Shen Tang hurried over and saw that it was Chen Shan. Shen Tang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Second Madam has already returned home. What took you so long to come back?"
Chen Shan wanted to say that he hadn't rested a moment since the Crown Princess gave him the order. He said, "The Second Madam wants to plot against the Third Madam to marry the nephew of Madam Wang..."
Shen Tang, “……!!!”
Shen Tang felt his anger rising to the top of his head.
The Second Wife was determined to keep Shen Ran in her hands. Since her nephew from her natal family was already married, she planned to marry Shen Ran to the nephew from the natal family of the First Wife, Wang. She wanted Shen Ran, this piece of protected flesh, to rot in the pot of her Wang family.
Mrs. Wang's nephew and Master Wang are of the same kind, both of them are the kind of people who sleep with willows and flowers.
Shen Tang felt sorry for Shen Ran, so much so that Chen Shan said, "The subordinates went in time and prevented Madam Wang's nephew from succeeding..."
Shen Tang was stunned. "Failed? Then why didn't my third sister return home with the second wife?"
Chen Shan said, "The third young lady was taken back to the Jinde Princess's residence by the eldest son-in-law."
Shen Tang was confused.
This is a long story, so Chen Shan might as well start from when Shen Tang asked him to go to Wang's house.
After he rushed to the Wang family, he quickly found the second wife and learned that the second wife had plotted to marry her daughter to the nephew of the first wife Wang and had drugged the two. At that time, Chen Shan felt that he was late, but before leaving, he still took a look. The nephew of the first wife Wang was about to commit violence, but he did not succeed in the end. Chen Shan rushed in, knocked him unconscious with a palm, and climbed over the wall to take Shen Ran, who was drugged and almost unconscious, out of the Wang family.
Chen Shan wanted to send Shen Ran to see a doctor to see if she could be saved, but by coincidence, just as he was taking Shen Ran to the pharmacy, he happened to see the prince consort passing by on horseback.
Chen Shan took Shen Ran to find the eldest son-in-law and introduced himself, "I am the secret guard of the Prince of Jingyang, and I have been ordered to protect the second daughter of the Pingyuan Marquis's mansion. The third daughter of the Pingyuan Marquis's mansion may be the daughter of the eldest son-in-law and Princess Jinde. She has been drugged by an aphrodisiac..."
The eldest son-in-law's brows were twisted into knots at that time.
Princess Jinde only gave birth to one child, and it was a stillbirth. Although Princess Jinde believed that her daughter was still alive, her husband had never thought so. When the midwife held the child in his hand to see, his daughter was wrinkled and covered in bruises. How could she still be alive?
Although the jade pendant buried with his daughter appeared, the prince consort only wanted to follow Princess Jinde's wishes, find his daughter's body and rebury her.
On his way back home to have dinner with the eldest princess, someone suddenly stopped him and told him that his daughter might still be alive?
If Chen Shan hadn't said first that he was the son of the Prince of Jingyang, the eldest son-in-law would have really been angry.
The eldest son-in-law glanced at Shen Ran, who was already unconscious. Just one glance, and a strange feeling flashed through the eldest son-in-law's heart.
The eyebrows and eyes do look like him...
At that time, Shen Ran's condition was so serious that she was pulling at her clothes in the street. Chen Shan had no choice but to carry her into the pharmacy and asked the doctor to save her first.
Chen Shan knew that aphrodisiacs were no different from other poisons, and doctors might not be able to cure them. What if he had to find a man for Miss Shen San in the end?
He told the prince consort first, but whether the prince consort believed it or not was not his business.
Chen Shan entered the drugstore. The prince consort hesitated for a moment, but got off the horse. The doctor couldn't save Shen Ran, so he could only soak her in the bathtub to relieve her pain. As for the antidote, it still depended on the harmony of yin and yang.
The eldest son-in-law asked, "Why do you say she is my daughter?"
Chen Shan said, "I don't know either. Miss Shen Er suspected this, so I brought her out of the Wang family. Prince Consort, just treat her as your daughter and choose a husband for her."
The eldest son-in-law looked at Shen Ran's eyebrows and eyes that looked very similar to his, and his heart moved slightly. Then he picked a husband for Shen Ran on the street.
Even though time was urgent, the eldest son-in-law really wanted to choose a son-in-law for himself. From more than a dozen children from aristocratic families, he chose the son of General Huaihua who had returned home from the military camp.
Chen Shan said, "The eldest young master of the General's Mansion in Huaihua gave the third young lady an antidote. The eldest son-in-law sent someone back to the mansion to ask if the daughter born to Princess Jinde that year had any birthmarks or anything like that. I can only wait with her..."
If not, he would have to bring Miss Shen back.
The eldest consort's people came back and said that the daughter born to Princess Jinde had a birthmark on her thigh. The eldest consort asked the eldest young master of the General's Mansion in Huaihua and confirmed that it was true. He cried with joy and took Shen Ran back.
The eldest young master of the Huaihua General's Mansion was terribly confused, his face red as if blood could drip out. The eldest son-in-law asked him to do something else, but how could he ask him to do such a favor...
