Chapter 1121： a chaos

Xuchang was so frightened that he was about to kneel down. When he heard this, his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, this matter has nothing to do with the Earl's Mansion. Your Highness is aware of it."

"We are all from the Earl's Mansion. The Earl said it doesn't matter. Do you think this prince will believe it?" Sang Zhi said coldly.

Xuchang's kneeling legs surged, he turned half a circle and faced Sang Zhi and kowtowed several times: "Your Highness really doesn't care about the affairs of the Earl's Mansion. Even if we are very brave, we don't dare."

“You don’t dare, someone else dares.” Sang Zhi’s eyes were cold.

Xuchang was stunned for a moment. He raised his head and met the cold gaze. A chill instantly hit his body: "Your Highness, Quanzi... Quanzi... are all..."

“Eighth Prince, Eighth Prince…”

A panicked and frightened voice interrupted Xuchang's words.

Ye Qianning has been using her powers since she entered the Earl's Mansion, and no movement in the entire mansion can escape her ears. It's so hard for a soft persimmon like Mrs. Xu to be hardened.

How could she dare to attack the princess if she didn't have someone she was risking her life to protect? It's a pity... the person she risked her life to protect might not appreciate it.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly turned around the corridor, followed by seven or eight maids and servants. Among them, two servants were guarding a woman on the left and the other.

The woman was **** with a white cloth in her mouth, and the steps on her head swayed with her ferocious movements.

Xuchang turned around and was startled again when he saw this scene. He opened his mouth but did not say a word.

Sang Zhi's red eyes faded away, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's rare that there are understanding people in the Earl's Mansion."

Xuchang was a little dazed. Hearing this, he suddenly woke up. What did the eighth prince mean by this... did he know that the person behind the scenes was the fifth princess?

Sudden surprise and surprise are compatible on the face, like finding a door in a dead end...

“My wife, please see the Eighth Prince.” Mrs. Xu saluted.

All the boys and maids following behind also saluted, but Sang Shu, who was tied up, stubbornly refused to bow her head or bend down.

"Uh huh... huh..." Sang Shu said as she stood there, glaring at Sang Zhi with her beautiful eyes.

Ye Qianning looked at Sang Shu, with her hair tied up, wearing a golden ruby ​​​​on her head, fair skin, and a small oval face. Although her face was full of anger at this time, her beauty could not be concealed.

The anger between her eyebrows was exactly the same as when she was a child, and the hatred and killing intent in her eyes were too strong.

Sang Shu seemed to be aware of Ye Qianning's appraising eyes, and turned her beautiful eyes towards her, with a murderous look in her eyes.

"Get up, the countess is here in a hurry, but she has something to say to the prince." Sang Zhi didn't even look at Sang Shu.

Mrs. Xu knelt on the ground without getting up and kowtowed: "Your Highness, neither I nor the master knew about the assassination. It was all ordered by the fifth princess. Your Highness knows that the fifth princess has been married to the Earl's Mansion for several years, and all the guards in the mansion have taken orders from her. …We were wronged in this matter.”

“Uh huh huh…” Sang Shu struggled.

"Oh? Sir, do you really don't know?" Sang Zhi asked.

Xuchang came back to his senses and immediately followed his wife's words: "Yes, Your Highness Wei Chen swears that Wei Chen really doesn't know. Before Your Highness came down, Wei Chen also just found out about the people hanging on the city gate. Your Highness, even if you give me ten courages, I won't do it." How dare you plot an assassination?"

“Where is Xu Hongwen?” Sang Zhi asked again softly.

Xuchang and Mrs. Xu were both stunned.

"Your Highness...Quinzi...doesn't know about this either." Mrs. Xu panicked.

“Mrs. Xu, do you think this prince is a fool?”

Mrs. Xu’s heart sank: “I dare not, my wife.”

"It's fair to say that the Lord and his wife don't know. Xu Hongwen is the consort and they are one and the same. If we say we don't know..." Sang Zhi's smile was a little scary: "Madam, why don't you think that this prince is a fool?"

"Your Highness makes atonement, Hongwen...Hongwen was all bewitched by the fifth princess." Mrs. Xu trembled and immediately pointed to Sang Shu.

Sang Shu’s eyes were almost filled with blood, what a countess, ha!

"Your Highness, how could Hongwen and His Highness have no grievances to assassinate His Highness? They are both the fifth princess. She has always hated His Highness because of the imperial concubine's exile ten years ago. It was she who seduced and stirred up trouble in front of Hongwen... and sent someone to assassinate His Highness..." Xu the lady cried.

Sang Shu shook her head and made a grunting sound, approaching madness. Did she assassinate Sang Zhi?

When did she assassinate Sang Zhi?

Although Sang Zhi was a little suspicious, he didn't care. No matter who was the mastermind, he would not let go of anyone who dared to touch her or get involved with her.

Ye Qianning looked at it calmly, her ears twitched slightly, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be raised slightly, it was a good show.

Xu Hongwen ran to the backyard and the group of people had already met him. From a distance, he saw his beloved woman standing there with her hair tied up, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

The pace quickened, and when he was about to get closer, he heard his mother blaming Sang Shu for everything.

"No, Shu'er didn't trick me. I did it. Everything is mine." Xu Hongwen shouted as he ran.

Mrs. Xu heard the sound and turned around to see the person coming. She was scared and angry, as if she was holding a ball of fire in her chest, which could not come up or go down.

Sang Shu's angry expression paused, and when she saw Xu Hongwen appeared, her angry eyes showed a hint of joy.

"Niezhan, Niezhan, what are you talking nonsense about?" Xu Chang suddenly stood up from the ground, rushed up and raised his hand to greet the original Xu Hongwen.

Xu Hongwen was hit several times and still said: "Shu'er didn't trick me, I planned the assassination alone." "You bastard, shut up, shut up quickly." Xu Chang was so angry that he wanted to silence him.

"Hong'er, what nonsense are you talking about? If it weren't for the Fifth Princess's temptation, how would you have the guts to do such a disrespectful thing?" Mrs. Xu stood up tremblingly, with tears streaming down her face.

“I said she didn’t trick me, it was all my attention.” Xu Hongwen dodged Xuchang and ran towards Sang Shu.

Seeing this, Sang Shu stumbled towards Xu Hongwen.

This scene of two-way running is really touching.

Ye Qianning glanced at Sang Zhi, who happened to be looking like her, and the two of them remained calm.

Xu Hongwen held Sang Shu in his arms and said angrily and urgently, "It's okay, Shu'er is okay."

Sang Shu's head was buried in her chest. Although she didn't like Xu Hongwen very much, at this moment, her heart was somewhat palpitating.

“Hong’er, you are confused.”

Mrs. Xu’s cry sounded.

The little flutter in Sang Shu's heart disappeared after hearing Mrs. Xu's voice again. What was left was only anger, and she struggled out of Xu Hongwen's arms and made a sound.

"Shu'er, don't be afraid." Xu Hongwen reacted, reached out to remove the cloth from her mouth, and went around behind her to untie the rope.

Sang Shu's mouth hurt and she turned to glare at Mrs. Xu: "You are so bold to attack this princess."

"The princess seduced my son into committing the crime of being beaten like this. If something happens to my son, even if you are the princess, I can't spare you." Mrs. Xu was no longer afraid at this time.

Nothing is more important than the flesh that fell from her body. She will lose her head if she is charged with murdering the prince.

Sang Shu was so angry that she laughed: "I didn't expect that my princess's amiable and good mother-in-law would have such a face. I've been married to this princess for a few years, and you've been pretending to be hard enough."

“I just happened to be in trouble with the wrong person. Please don’t involve my son in the princess’s own hatred.”

“Mother.”

Xu Hongwen was shocked. He had never seen his mother like this...

"Heh." Sang Shu turned to look at Xu Hongwen: "Is this princess begging you again?"

"Shu'er, you...Mother, she was just scared." After Xu Hongwen finished speaking, he looked at Mrs. Xu: "Mother, Shu'er didn't ask me to do anything. It was all of my son's own free will. The assassination was really not Shu'er's fault. idea."

"What a sin...ah." Xuchang's acting skills are very vicious.

The attitude of the fifth princess can be seen at a glance. They can't afford the Earl's Mansion. They can't afford it.

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu was so angry that she could hardly stand still. She pointed at him with a trembling finger: "You have no enmity with the Eighth Prince, so you would send someone to assassinate the Eighth Prince for no reason? You... are just seduced by her."

Xu Hongwen was stunned, and Sang Shu was also stunned. The two of them looked at Sang Zhi who was standing next to them with a tacit understanding.

Sang Zhi has been standing nearby, his expression very dull, but if you look carefully, you can still see that he is in a good mood.

Sang Shu was too nervous and didn't notice the difference between Sang Zhi and usual. The pair of red eyes made her fear from the bottom of her heart, even panic, and she wanted to escape crazily.

"I...I never sent anyone to assassinate you. Don't stop her nonsense..." Sang Shu took a step back, wishing to kill Mrs. Xu.

How could Mrs. Xu allow her to quibble: "Your Highness, if it weren't for her, how would my son have the desire to assassinate?"

Xu Hongwen looked confused and surprised: "What nonsense are you talking about? Shu'er didn't assassinate the eighth prince at all."

Her mother wanted to send Shuer to her death?

Xu Chang was angry, stepped forward and slapped Xu Hongwen: "You still want to cover up for her now. Have you ever thought about the Earl's Mansion?"

Sang Shu’s eyes were cold.

 Xu Hongwen's slap was real. He steadied his cheeks and turned to look at Sang Zhi with anger in his heart: "Dad, Shu'er didn't assassinate the eighth prince, let alone Shu'er."

After saying this, he didn’t wait for Xuchang to speak, and turned to look at Sang Zhi: “Eighth Prince, the Earl’s Palace has never sent anyone to assassinate you.”

“I also said that it was me who was sent to assassinate someone from the Earl’s Palace.” Sang Zhi said flatly.

Xuchang and Mrs. Xu were stunned.

"Forging imperial edicts to the Marquis of Ming Dynasty, they are extremely arrogant outside the city gate. Yesterday, the Earl's Palace sent people to Sifang Mountain for the sake of the royal family's face. As a royal family, the Eighth Prince should not severely punish the traitors. Instead, What's the point of letting Du Yi hang people at the city gate? And now what's the point of sending the royal guards to surround the Earl's Mansion?" Xu Hongwen became angry and emboldened.

Sang Zhi was relieved of some doubts in his heart. He looked at Ye Qianning and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Looking back, his eyes were sharp and his voice was cold: "Face is not worthy of the royal family."

"Eighth Prince, you..." Xu Hongwen was shocked.

Sang Shu bit her lower lip. Others didn't know it but she knew very well that Sang Zhi's boldness was far more than that.

He was a disgrace to the royal family and she wished he would die.

Xuchang heard something from it, stared at Xu Hongwen and asked: "Who did you send to assassinate yesterday?"
