The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife: The Sly Lady - Chapter 161
Chapter 161: Family Became Enemy
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Song Tianwen’s serious injury was due to Rou’s vicious actions. However, Song Tianwen secretly had a mistress outside first. Rou could not be the only one to be blamed…
“Is it Song Tianwen who stabbed Rou?” Murong Jian asked coldly.
Old Lady Song snorted scornfully, “it was your sister who carried on a clandestine love affair and was pregnant with a bastard. She was stabbed because she irritated Tianwen!”
“Was it? Where is the adulterer?” Murong Jian’s eyes were cold. To catch a thief, you must have stolen goods as evidence. To reveal adultery, you must find the adulterer and jezebel. Rou’s pregnancy proved nothing. Only when an adulterer was found could she be judged to have committed adultery.
“This… is also known only by Tianwen.” Old Lady Song said coldly, her eyes faint. If her son was awake, speaking out who Murong Rou’s adulterer was, they could immediately kill Murong Rou on charges of her being an obscene woman!
“So, Mrs. Song, you have no evidence that Rou cheated Song Tianwen and set fire to the Pavilion, right?” Murong Jian raised his eyebrows and looked at Old Lady Song. His eyes were full of arrogance.
Old Lady Song said urgently, “When Tianwen wakes up, there will be evidence…”
“His Lord’s injury is so severe, when can he awake? If he is in a coma for a long time, should we keep him here without any food or drink?” Murong Jian sternly questioned, his eyes shining with a threatening light.
Old Lady Song frowned tightly. The burns of Tianwen were serious. This was not a good place to recuperate. “What should I do in your opinion, Lord Murong?”
Murong Jian raised his voice and said, “Song Tianwen is your son. You take him back to the mansion to cure his injury. Rou was my sister. I will take her back to my mansion to heal her wounds. When Tianwen wakes up, we will Old Lady Song sneered. Murong Rou was the darling daughter of the Marquis. Her own family was her strong backing. As long as she left, she would be covered with invisible security blanket. Even if Tianwen woke up and provided a lot of evidence, they could never ever punish Murong Rou. Thus, he wouldn’t foolishly just let go of Murong Rou, “What if I said no?”
“Then, I have to say sorry!” Murong Jian said coldly, striding to the front of Murong Rou, who was half blood-soaked. He carefully held her in his arms, walking steadily forward, completely ignoring, with a disdainful attitude, Old Lady Song.
Old Lady Song flashed a sharp cold light at the bottom of her eyes and winked at her servants quietly.
The maids and nannies grasped her meaning and pounced on Murong Jian ferociously.
Wanted to block him? Simply overreached!
Murong Jian’s corners of the mouth emerged with a sneer. He stood on tiptoe, his tall body dodged back and forth between the maids and nannies. With a rumbling sound, they got all kicked down to the ground, stroking their chests, and wailing painfully…
Murong Jian just turned a blind eye. Holding Murong Rou, he swaggered out of the house. This supercilious behavior made Old Lady Song livid. Her hands under her sleeve tightly grasped and her angry shouts passed through the clouds, resounding through the sky, “Murong Jian!”
Sitting on the high wall, Murong Xue gently raised her arched eyebrows. In the face of absolute force, everything was a paper tiger. Murong Jian’s martial arts were very good, while the maids and nannies were only strong in strength. How could they be his opponent? A double number of servants may not be able to stop him…
“Doctor, come and check Tian wen’s injury!” Old Lady Song’s joyful exclamation was heard in her ears. Murong Xue looked up and saw a doctor in his 40s rush into the garden carrying a medicine box…
Murong Jian and Murong Rou left. Song Tianwen was healing his wounds. The play had come to an end and there was nothing to watch.
However, Murong Rou killed Jing’er and Bai, seriously hurt Song Tianwen, who also stabbed Murong Rou and killed the fetus in her belly. The knots among them became complex. The two families had changed from in-laws to enemies…
Murong Rou and Song Tianwen were not kind people. They were both seriously injured and could do nothing. When they well recovered, there would definitely be fierce infighting between the two and they would not stop until they die. The capital city would soon welcome a good show…
Murong Xue’s corners of the mouth curved up with a pleasant radian, she quietly jumped down the high wall, gracefully walked to the outside, only to see the carriage parking spot beside the Lord Kingdom Mansion empty, without a trace of any carriage…
She looked around, and it was empty too. There was no carriage from the mansion.
Murong Xue frowned gently, where did the carriage go? Was Ouyang Shaochen impatient with waiting for her and return to Lord Freedom Mansion alone…
“The carriage is too luxurious and could be easily noticed in the alley. I let Xun Feng drive it back. Have you finished watching the play?” The crisp voice was heard in her ears, Murong Xue looked toward Ouyang Shaochen who was in a white robe, sitting at a stone table under the osmanthus tree, and leisurely sipping green tea. His long sleeves were casually flowing down. This noble appearance was so attractive that she couldn’t move her eyes from him.
“Yes!” Murong Xue nodded and felt a strange emotion in her heart: Ouyang Shaochen did not leave me and left alone…
“How was the play?” Ouyang Shaochen asked lightly.
“It was wonderful. This matter will spread around the capital by tomorrow at the latest!” Murong Xue was smiling. Murong Rou and Song Tianwen, who turned from a loving couple into a dead enemy, would certainly surprise the nobles in the capital city. The fights between them would definitely be more exciting than ever before, making people look forward to it.
Looking at her sparkling eyes, Ouyang Shaochen flashed a smile at the bottom of his eyes. He got up and walked up to her, holding her small hand and slowly walking forward. “Murong Rou and Song Tianwen were both seriously injured. The two will not be able to fight for some days. You don’t have to put too much energy on them…”
“I know!” Murong Xue nodded. She was going to wait for them to recover and continue seeing the play. When Song Tianwen was about to be burned to death, Old Lady Song came in time, when Murong Rou was nearly killed, Murong Jian came to rescue her. Both of them were villains with good luck, destined to survive and fight with each other…
Seeing a vendor carrying candied haws passing by, Murong Xue’s eyes lit up, “I want candied haws!”
“Sure.” Ouyang Shaochen nodded and stopped the peddler. He picked a bunch of candied haws and handed them to Murong Xue. The afterglow of the setting sun circled around him with a pale golden aperture, making him look noble, sacred, and spotless.
Seeing this scene, Murong Xue was in a daze, her eyes flashing unnaturally, took the candied haws, and quickly took a bite. The sour-sweet taste instantly filled her whole mouth!
The candied haws were pure in taste and excellent in materials, much more delicious than some modern candied haws that used inferior materials.
Murong Xue nodded with satisfaction and peeked at Ouyang Shaochen from the corner of her eyes. Suddenly, a hint of banter flashed through her eyes and she handed the candied haws to his mouth, “It tastes very good. You can try it, too!”
