Shen Xiyao looked at the maid and shouted loudly.
"You can't give me some benefits, and now you are still bothering me so much. You only know how to cause me trouble. Can I live a carefree and happy life in this prince's mansion now?"
The maid lowered her head, not daring to speak, and could only speak in a crying voice.
"Miss, please, please! Our lady is now tied up in the woodshed by the master. She is dishevelled all day long. How can she look like the noble lady she used to be? Madam, please, please save our lady..."
Shen Xiyao slapped him.
"Why are you crying? Could it be that someone in your family has died? Shut up and stop talking. Go back. I will find a way to solve this matter. As for you, remember to call me Crown Princess from now on."
"Yes, Your Highness, I remember."
After the maid left, Shen Xiyao sat in her seat in silence. After an unknown amount of time, her personal maid came in to talk to her.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is back."
Shen Xiyao stood up slowly, tidied herself up, and sat next to the prince, pretending not to notice the beautiful concubine beside him. She filled the prince's glass with wine, and the prince looked at her with disgust.
"Why, did you hear everything I said to you a few days ago? You don't remember anything at all. Don't you remember me telling you to stay out of my sight? Otherwise, I'll be rude to you."
Shen Xiyao pulled her lips.
"How could I not remember? But, Your Highness, I have something to ask of you today. I hope Your Highness can help me."
She glanced at the beautiful concubine beside him with a warning look in her eyes, as if she wanted his concubine to leave.
The prince glanced at his beautiful concubine, then hugged her tightly, and looked at Shen Xiyao with an indifferent look on his face.
"If you have something to say, just say it. She is not someone else, why bother so much."
Shen Xiyao pursed her lips and smiled without being polite.
"Okay, I think Your Highness the Crown Prince must have heard about my mother's situation. In that case, Your Highness the Crown Prince, I'll just make it short. I want you to save my mother."
The prince had heard about what happened in the Shen family. His spies had been keeping an eye on Shen Xining, so Shen Xining did not go out in the afternoon, and he did not have time to prevent the matter from being exposed. However, the prince did know about it, but he had no intention of lending a helping hand. What did the Shen family's affairs have to do with him? He, the crown princess, was so neglected, and something happened to her mother's family. Isn't it a good thing for him
Shen Xiyao glanced at the prince and sneered.
"I just got married not long ago. If something happened to my mother's family, it would definitely cause criticism from outsiders. I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows how powerful those people are. I know His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's strategies and his thoughts. Although I am not as experienced as my sister in the outside world and know the great talents and strategies of this world, I was raised in the family of the Grand Tutor since I was a child. After all, I am more suitable to be the Crown Princess than the one next to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should have made a judgment in his heart."
The woman in the prince's arms thought about it and tried to break free. The prince slapped her in the face. The woman fell to the ground. The prince sneered and said.
"She knows too much. They made people pretend that she was about to go home and was attacked by bandits outside. Do you understand?"
The woman's face turned pale instantly.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I was wrong, I was wrong, please, forgive me, please..."
The prince kicked her away without saying a word. The people over there dragged the woman away. Soon, the screams could no longer be heard. The prince looked at Shen Xiyao with a calm expression.
"Since I have explained everything clearly, I believe you have already thought of a plan to deal with it. Otherwise, you would not have done such a stupid thing."
Shen Xiyao pursed her lips and smiled, a very happy smile.
"Your Highness is right. This is just a small matter for you. You just need to accompany me back home like last time and explain the pros and cons of this matter to my father. He will naturally make his own judgment. Of course, there is no need for him and my mother to get along as harmoniously as before. Not to mention him, even I feel disgusted knowing that my mother did such a thing."
The prince curled his lips and smiled.
"What good is it for me?"
"Your Highness, I think you heard what I just said. Since we are already husband and wife, my reputation will affect you at least until you succeed. If there is no bloodshed in your affair, that would be the best. But if there is bloodshed, I'm afraid it will be very difficult."
Oh.
It's not as stupid as I thought.
"Okay, in that case, I'll go there, but you should know that your sister is not an easy person to deal with."
"I know, thank you, Your Highness."
The prince sneered and left the prince's mansion.
Shen's house.
Because of this incident, although it happened in broad daylight, the door of the Shen residence was still tightly closed. The arrival of the prince made Shen's father's face show panic for a second.
"I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would come today. I hope Your Royal Highness will not mind."
The prince sat down calmly, picked up the teacup in his hand and spoke in a low voice.
"Father-in-law, there is no need to worry so much. It's okay. Since we are in-laws, these things are just trivial matters and you don't need to worry about them."
Father Shen wiped the sweat from his forehead and just breathed a sigh of relief. The prince then spoke as if on purpose.
"I've heard about Madam Shen's affairs. Is her case too extreme?"
Father Shen's expression suddenly changed, and the prince patted his shoulder and whispered.
"Don't be so nervous. The Shen family has its own face to consider, but Lord Shen, not many people know about this matter now. Our two families are now closely connected. Lord Shen, have you ever considered that your face is my face?"
Mr. Shen lowered his head even lower.
"I don't know what your Highness wants to say. Please tell me clearly and give me a quick reply."
The prince sat in his seat, sneered, then drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and then threw the cup in his hand directly to the ground. The sound of the cup falling was very loud, bringing a shudder.
