Chapter 28 Slap in public
Duke Zhenguo clasped his hands tightly and looked at Shen Ning for a moment, with angry eyes, as if asking: Did you come back today on purpose to show off to us?
Shen Ning's expression was as indifferent as snow, and she sat on the chair with nothing to do, as if she had nothing to do with the people present, and turned a deaf ear to everything that happened in front of her.
The air in the hall was cold and the atmosphere was depressing.
In the huge hall, the only sound was the crackling sound of a slap on the face, which was so clear and frightening.
Mrs. Shen sat aside, her cheeks twitching with anger, she held the crutch in her hand tightly, and it took a lot of effort to restrain herself from making a sound.
After a while, Shen Yan couldn't even scream. Her cheeks were swollen, the corners of her mouth were cracked, and her face looked miserable.
Ji Yucang had probably heard enough and said coldly: "Shi Qin."
Shi Qin stepped aside and stood with his head bowed.
"Since Shen Ning has married this king, she will be my wife from now on, and the regent princess who is the most powerful among the ten thousand people. Anyone who dares to disrespect her will be disrespecting this king." Ji Yucang stood up, with a majestic posture, and his body was full of fluids. People cannot ignore the sense of oppression, "In the future, whenever anyone in the government office sees the princess, they must pay homage to her. Otherwise, she will be deemed to have committed the following offenses. The princess does not need to interfere with the king, and she can punish her by slapping her mouth, kneeling for a long time, whipping and other punishments. "
After finishing speaking, he tilted his head and asked calmly: "Shiqin, Shiqi, did you hear clearly?"
Shi Qin and Shi Qi immediately knelt down: "I understand."
"If the princess is wronged in the future and you remain indifferent, I will make your life worse than death."
"yes!"
Shen Ning didn't say a word from beginning to end, her face was as cold as ice, and she didn't react at all to Ji Yucang's support for her. There was no emotion in her dark eyes.
Ji Yucang turned his head and stretched out his hand towards Shen Ning.
Shen Ning was stunned for a moment, staring at the hand he handed to her. It was long and white, with well-defined joints. It looked like a pampered hand. It was pleasing to the eye and especially beautiful.
Shen Ning silently handed her hand to him.
When he was holding it, I felt that there was a callus in his palm that everyone who practiced martial arts had. The thin layer seemed to contain elegant and noble power.
The power of elegance and nobility?
This description may sound nondescript, but it is just right when applied to Ji Yucang.
Ji Yucang took Shen Ning out.
Mrs. Shen was still sitting stiffly on the chair, feeling that her dignity had been completely trampled on.
Shen Shi'an hurriedly turned his head to look at Shen Yan, whose cheeks were red and swollen, and reached out to touch her face: "Yan'er, do you feel any pain? Come here, call the doctor! Go call the doctor!"
Shen Yan knelt on the ground blankly, her eyes were red and swollen, her cheeks were swollen, and there were bloodshot eyes oozing from the broken corners of her mouth, as if she had been greatly stimulated, and she did not respond for a long time.
Shen Shi'an looked at her worriedly: "Yan'er?"
Shen Yan blinked, tears streaming down her face.
"Don't cry." Shen Shi'an gritted his teeth and deliberately lowered his voice with anger, "If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely seek justice for you——"
"Are you worried that the Shen family will not die quickly enough?" Duke Zhen Guo stood up and kicked him with an angry kick. His tone was cold, "If you dare to act impulsively in the future, I will not be polite to you!"
Shen Shi'an was kicked to the ground hard, his face turned pale, and his waist hurt as if it was about to break. He couldn't get up for a long time.
Shen Yan froze in fear and looked at her suddenly angry father in horror.
"Shen Yan." Shen Yunlin lowered his eyes and looked down at her, his eyes as cold as knives, "Have you plotted against Shen Ning?"
"Father...Father, I don't-"
Shen Shi'an endured the pain and defended Shen Yan: "Father, Shen Ning must have deliberately fabricated rumors in front of the regent. How could Yan'er be so kind-hearted, how could she plot against her sister?"
Mrs. Shen was not sure. She thought of what Shen Yan said. She had clearly stated that she wanted to marry the regent, and she felt chills in her heart.
Duke Zhen Guo stared at Shen Yan: "Tell me again, is it true?!"
Shen Yan was almost heartbroken and trembling: "I...I just...I just..."
"That's it." Shen Yunlin boiled with anger, "From now on, you will stay at home and embroider for me, and don't go out even half a step, otherwise the family will deal with it!"
Leaving these words behind, he walked away coldly.
"Yan'er, why are you so confused?" Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Yan sadly, "She is the regent princess now, how dare you plot against her like this?"
Shen Yan bit her lip, her eyes were red and purple, and the swelling and pain on her face was like hot oil being poured on her face. The humiliation of being mastered in public and her father's accusation were like needles piercing her heart. The pain was so painful that she couldn't breathe. .
She clenched her hands tightly, feeling strong hatred in her heart.
Hatred for Shen Ning.
She must seek justice today and make Shen Ning's life worse than death!
"Stop blaming her." Mrs. Shen stood up on crutches and stared coldly at Shen Yan's face. "Find some ointment and apply it on her. Don't leave any scars on her face. Be careful not to get married in the future."
Shen Yan's vision turned black for a while, and she fell to the side without warning.
"Yan'er! Yan'er!" Mrs. Shen said eagerly, "Please call the doctor! Is the doctor here?"
The hall suddenly became chaotic.
Shen Shi'an hurriedly picked up Shen Yan and walked to the inner courtyard. The servants prepared plasters and asked the doctors. Suddenly, they lost their usual calmness and order.
…
Shen Ning did not expect to see Qin Yanshu on the day she returned home.
Outside the Shen family gate, Qin Yanshu stood in front of the carriage, looking at Shen Ning walking out of the gate for a moment, his eyes full of suppressed regret and pain: "Ning'er..."
His broken hand was tied with a strip of cloth, and his face was pale. In just three days, not only did his body look much thinner, but his face also became visibly haggard.
"Presumptuous." The regent's personal guard Ling Feng said coldly, "The regent and the princess are here, Mr. Qin, why don't you kneel down and salute?"
Qin Yanshu did not look at Ji Yucang, but stared at Shen Ning with painful eyes: "Ning'er."
"Qin Yanshu, you are so brave, you dare to call the princess by her name." Ji Yucang stood beside Shen Ning with his hands behind his hands, his aura was cold and his voice was cold, "If you die early, I am willing to help you."
"Shen Ning is my wife." Qin Yanshu turned his head and looked at Ji Yucang with hostility in his eyes, "It is the regent who uses power for personal gain and wins people's love."
Shen Ning said coldly: "Qin Yanshu, do you want face?"
"Ning'er." Qin Yanshu's expression changed, and he stepped forward quickly, trying to grab her hand, "I regret it, Ning'er, the regent is not your lover, you only liked me before -"
"Shiqin."
As soon as the words fell, a slender figure flashed in front of his eyes. Qin Yanshu was hit by a palm and flew out, and his body directly hit the door of Shen's house.
Ji Yucang's eyes were cold and cold, and he looked down at Qin Yanshu as if he were looking at an ant: "If you dare to be disrespectful to the princess again, I will make you regret coming to this world."
Qin Yanshu propped up his body and roared angrily: "With the high power of the regent, can he steal someone's wife openly? Shen Ning is my fiancée, and we are engaged -"
Snapped!
Shen Ning walked up to him, bent down, raised her hand and slapped him.
Qin Yanshu froze: "Ning'er."
"The engagement was broken off by the Qin family, and it was you who demoted my wife as a concubine. Now you're here to beat me up?" Shen Ning spoke word by word, her voice cold and ruthless, "Qin Yanshu, if you pester me again, I will make you worse. die."
After leaving these words, she turned around and walked towards the carriage.
Qin Yanshu watched Ji Yucang get on the carriage, and entered the carriage one after another with Shen Ning. There was strong jealousy and hatred in his eyes: "Ning'er, I will not give up!"
The carriage from the Prince Regent's Palace drove away slowly, and no one paid attention to his unwillingness and jealousy. The gentle young man in the eyes of girls from aristocratic families was just a clown to Ji Yucang and Shen Ning, not worth their time.
The guard stepped forward to help Qin Yanshu: "Young Master."
Qin Yanshu looked gloomy, stood up staggeringly, turned around and got into the carriage: "Go to the Princess Pingyao Mansion."
"yes."
