"The whip's been poisoned. They don't want me to live." Song Qingyu calmly said, but his voice was exceptionally weak, "I have already consumed the antidote, so I am temporarily fine. Ah Nannan, go find Shen Xiang and bring her here."
"Miss, don't worry. I'll go now."
With the departure of Nannan, Song Qingyu immediately fainted.
The next day dawned.
In the early morning, the four carriages arrived from the front and back of the main group. Because more than ten years ago, General Shen San's garrison at the border had been destroyed, and Madam Shen was worried about her death. For the sake of this orphan, the emperor had been bestowed the title of Group Owner ever since she was young. It had always been raised in the Imperial Palace.
As Song Qingyu had said, Shen Wan Rong's arrival was a result of the Imperial Household's intentions to monitor the Song Manor.
As expected, once Shen Wangrong arrived, the madame made the decision to move Lady Shen and Song Yiyan out of the Drifting Cloud Courtyard and back to the main yard. On the contrary, he had sent Shen Xiang, who originally lived in the Northern Courtyard's side courtyard, to the Drifting Cloud Courtyard.
Shen Xiang was at a disadvantage, so Song Qingyu wanted to ally with her, so he sent Nannan to Shen Xiang in the middle of the night.
When the sky was bright, Song Qingyu's shoulder was suddenly pressed down and he was pulled down from the bed.
Song Qingyu fell to the ground and struggled to open his eyes. The bright light obscured his vision. The moment he hit the ground, he was dragged to the backyard.
"Madam, look, Eldest Miss isn't dead yet!"
The voice of the speaker was filled with surprise, schadenfreude, and viciousness.
He finally adapted to the light and saw Lady Shen sitting on a chair in front of him. Beside her, there was a tea table with a pot of tea on it, two cups, and beside the cup was a silver whip.
The one sitting next to the silver whip was a young girl dressed in tight clothes.
The little girl looked unfamiliar, but she looked very similar to Mrs. Shen. It was the same agility and elegance, and he was dressed in a rider's uniform. The feeling he gave off was exceptionally clean and nimble.
Song Qingyu saw that there was no change in their eyes. When he saw what was beside him, he could not help but stare with widened eyes.
Nannan's mouth was covered as she knelt on the ground while the servant that subdued her stood beside Shen Xiang. Chen Xiang had a flattering smile on her face as she looked at the Shen Clan.
Song Qingyu found it hard to believe that Shen Xiang had defected to the Shen family. In this situation, no one would want to seek refuge with the Shen family. Song Qingyu's brain was buzzing as he looked at her.
Nannan covered her mouth as she did not know what to say. Her eyes were filled with moisture as she looked at Song Qingyu with regret and self-blame. Blood dripped down from the right side of Nannan's head, leaving a large amount of blood.
Song Qing and Yu opened their eyes wide, their eyes were filled with pain. Very quickly, he concealed his gaze and lightly glanced at Shen Xiang.
She made an appointment with Zuo Linyi three days later to find a way to bring her to the palace.
Song Qingyu thought in detail before he suddenly stared at Shen Xiang.
Shen Xiang's entire body shuddered as she muttered in her heart that she was only beating up a servant girl. Song Qingyu's gaze seemed to want to eat her. Following which he displayed his abilities in front of the Shen family.
"Madam, I already told you that this girl isn't dead. Yesterday, I sent this servant girl to my room to look for me after midnight." She really doesn't know. My surname is Shen and my name is given by the first wife. How could I dare to betray the first wife? "
Madame Shen coldly glared at Shen Xiang. "I remember that you didn't say that a few days ago."
Shen Xiang raised her hand and gave herself a slap. "Madam, I deserve to die, but I did this for the sake of the Madam before. I thought that as long as I could draw a clear line between myself and the Madam and obtain the trust of this damned girl, I would definitely be able to help her in the future." This girl really sent someone to look for me. He even said that he would pass the message out. Madam, I have helped you greatly. Otherwise, when this girl sent out the message, she would be extraordinary. "
Madame Shen coldly snorted and did not look at her. Instead, she stared at Song Qingyu.
Song Qingyu's death was unexpected.
Shen Xiang embarrassedly squeezed out a trace of a smile as she walked uneasily to stand behind Mrs Shen.
Mrs Shen looked Song Qingyu up and down.
Song Qingyu had already changed into a clean set of clothes, but his face was deathly pale. Lady Shen's mood was elated, her lips curled up into a smile.
"Tsk tsk, Song Qingyu, where's your arrogant bones? What, last night's twenty lashes were already enough to kill you? You want to find reinforcements? Even if King Yu came, he wouldn't be able to see you. "I've already sent the message. You're sick, it's an epidemic disease …"
Song Qingyu's eyes turned hazy, but he did not refute. He looked at Lady Shen and laughed lightly, "Mother, what benefits do you get by beating me to death? Have you forgotten who instigated this incident last night? Something's happened to second sister and I'm dead again. Who else is in the main house? "
The person who invited the Taoist yesterday was none other than Song Zhenhua!
Madame Shen's eyebrows twitched, "Nonsense!"
"The sandpiper and clam fight will always pay off. Mother, you are really stupid. "The Second Branch is trying to seize power, to take control of the Song Residence!" Song Qingyu said firmly.
Madam Shen gripped her palms tightly, holding the cup by her side as she pondered, and suddenly took a sip.
Song Qingyu saw the change in Mrs Shen's expression and thought that it was working.
Shen Wan Rong's gaze was on Song Qingyu for a while.
"Aunt, I see that this is indeed a demoness. Just a few casual words are enough to bewitch Aunt." Aunt Ming Cha, even if it's for A Yan's sake, you can't let her go so easily. "
When Lady Shen heard this, her eyebrows curved into a smile, "I was almost tricked by her. In the second room, there was only one Song Shu and one son who was missing. "What right do they have to fight with us? The old master is a first rank official in the court, and the second brother is a third rank official."
Shen Wan Rong was delighted by his praise.
"Aunty, I've seen many crafty and cunning girls in my house." Even if he was about to die, he still had to drag an innocent person into the water. Aunt, in my opinion, we should just put him to death. "
Mrs Shen's eyes turned.
"It would be too easy for her to execute him. She hurt my Ayan's leg like this. "How can I let her off so easily? I've been thinking for the whole night. I was so happy to hear that she didn't die early in the morning."
As Madame Shen spoke, she impatiently wanted to deal with Song Qingyu.
"All ten fingers are linked to the heart. We will break the tendons in her hands and legs one by one, making her want to die and become a cripple! Throw it to the beggar's nest and let her fend for herself! "
After Mrs Shen said this, the surrounding people could not help but hold their breath.
The First Lady was too scary.
Shen Wan Rong was young, but upon hearing that, she didn't have the slightest shyness. "Alright, little aunt, I've never seen such a method! I want to hear how nice this witch's shout is. "
Song Qingyu was stunned.
Madame Shen waved her sleeves, and immediately, someone came forward. The people who had come were not from the Song Manor. They were the servants of the Royal Manor. However, each one of them radiated an aura of death, as though they were emotionless machines.
There was a sharp dagger in his hand, reflecting the light of the sun.
Song Qingyu looked at the two approaching him and clenched his fists tightly. His expression was as calm as water and he suddenly sneered.
