Chapter 354 That's Okay
When Shen Yiyi heard Shang Zhanchen say that the Queen had fallen out with the Emperor over her own affairs, she was moved but also felt very aggrieved.
"I don't want to save the queen! I just want to break off my engagement with the prince."
Her lips were pouted and her head was lowered. She just thought this was a good time to cancel the engagement.
But when I hear them say that, it seems like I am so bad and so heartless.
"Cancelling the engagement, won't it be decided when? Now that the queen has been poisoned, if you tell her about this.
Just think about what she is thinking and how disappointed she must be with you." Shang Zhan glared at her in dissatisfaction.
At this moment, he was extremely anxious and wished he could get the antidote right away and send it back to his mother.
"Yes, Miss, this is really not the time to bring up this matter, if you really told the prince.
Not only will it cause dissatisfaction among the prince, it will also make the queen sad. She has been so good to you, and you are going to get the antidote in exchange.
Think about it, this is nothing but a threat. Anyone would feel sad if they were in this situation. You really did something wrong. "
"Yes, Miss Shen, if you use this as a bargaining chip, it will definitely anger the Crown Prince and the Queen.
Not only will you not be able to cancel the engagement, but you will also have to offend the emperor. Not to mention your freedom, the entire prime minister's residence will probably be implicated."
"Can I?" Shen Yiyi frowned and looked at Jiang You and the others.
She just wanted to cancel her engagement with the prince, but from what they said now, it seemed as if she was an unforgivable sinner.
"Do I even need to ask if I can? The Queen is so kind to you, but you didn't help her get rid of the poison and even used it as a condition for exchange.
As if the prince was so terrible, do you think the queen would be happy?" Shang Zhanchen glared at her in dissatisfaction.
All I thought about all day was breaking off the engagement with him, nothing else.
"I..." Shen Yiyi choked.
She was so blocked that she didn't know what to say. She just wanted to cancel the engagement with the prince, but what they said made sense.
The Queen was so good to her, and it would not be a good idea to use this as a bargaining chip.
Seeing that the woman had listened, Shang Zhanchen's tone softened.
"Be obedient and give me the antidote pills first. We'll talk about canceling the engagement later." He stretched out his hand again.
"Yes! Miss, you should give the antidote pills to General Zhan first and detoxify the queen. The queen's health is more important."
Jiang Zuo also looked anxious. If the Crown Princess didn't give his master the detoxification pill, he was really afraid that his master would lose his temper.
"Yes, Miss Shen, please give the antidote pills to General Zhan first to cure the Queen's poison!
By then, the Queen and the Crown Prince will remember your kindness and may even agree to cancel your engagement with the Crown Prince."
"Can I?" Shen Yiyi stared at Jiang You. It would be great if that were the case.
"Yes." Jiang Zuo and Jiang You said in unison.
He was so anxious at this moment that his throat was smoking. If the Crown Princess still refused to take the detoxification pill, he was really afraid that his master would get angry.
Seeing how confident they were, Shen Yiyi hesitated for a moment before nodding reluctantly.
"Okay then." He put his hand into his arms.
He took out a small porcelain bottle, poured out a pill, and handed it to Shang Zhanchen.
"When you give it to the prince, just say that I took the initiative to give it to him, and by the way, help me mention the cancellation of the engagement."
Ran looked at Shang Zhanchen, knowing that she couldn't let the prince know that she was unwilling to take the antidote pills.
Otherwise, he would really think that I was using this to threaten him, and if he got angry, he would be even less likely to cancel the engagement with me.
"Okay." Shang Zhanchen nodded and quickly put the pill in his hand.
At the moment, his mind was full of thoughts about his mother, and he didn't pay any attention to what Shen Yiyi said next.
"Then you stay here obediently, I will go to see the prince." Then he turned around and strode out.
His steps were hurried as never before, and he couldn't wait to deliver the antidote pills to his mother.
Seeing him leave in a hurry, Shen Yiyi sat down.
"It's over. There's no hope again."
I had thought that I would be able to cancel the engagement with the prince this time, but in the end my happiness was in vain.
Seeing that the Crown Princess was talking so much that she could hardly bear the grudge, Jiang Zuo was about to step forward to give her some advice when Zhong Bo walked in carrying a food box.
"Uncle Zhong, why are you here?" Shen Yiyi stood up.
"My dear Miss, the master is afraid that you are not used to eating here, so he specially asked me to bring you some food."
Zhong Bo put the food box on the table, looked at the many foods on it, and then looked at the environment of the cell.
"..."
I thought the young lady would suffer here, but it seems the master's worries were unnecessary.
Although she had already eaten a lot, Shen Yiyi felt hungry again when she saw the food brought out by Uncle Zhong.
“So many delicious foods?”
He picked up the bowl and started eating. At this moment, Shen Ze was furious in the mansion.
At this moment, Wan and Shen Qiaoqiao were kneeling on the ground, their mouths swollen from being beaten.
"It's unfortunate for our family to have raised a bunch of troublemakers like you!" Shen Ze's chest kept heaving with anger.
He pointed at Wan and Shen Qiaoqiao with gritted teeth, saying that it was such a misfortune for their family to have produced two such fools.
They actually teamed up with outsiders to bully family members. Fortunately, the prince and the queen protected Yi Yi this time, otherwise she would have lost face.
Even Yi Yi's status as Crown Princess could not be saved, let alone the Shen family's wealth and prosperity. Seeing the master's hand raised again, Wan hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Master, please stop beating me. I know I was wrong. Qiaoqiao is not engaged yet. If I hurt her, we won't be able to get engaged in the future."
Wan cried bitterly. She didn't expect the master to be so angry. She didn't expect that the bracelet given to the dead girl was actually given by the Queen.
I had never heard her mention it before, and if she had said it earlier, none of the things that happened later would have happened.
That damn girl must have done it on purpose, trying to make things worse. Shen Ze wanted to continue to be angry.
But when he saw Shen Qiaoqiao's red and swollen face, he finally put his hand down.
"From now on, you will be under house arrest for a month. No one is allowed to come out without my permission."
Then he turned his head and looked at Aunt Cheng who looked obedient on the side.
"You will be in charge of the affairs of the mansion this month."
"Master!" Wan was extremely anxious.
Even when the master was very angry over the years, he never took away her housekeeper rights. Now, not only did he take away her housekeeper rights, but he also put her under house arrest for a month. It seems that he is really angry this time.
"Yes." Aunt Cheng bowed respectfully.
There was no expression on her face and no emotion could be seen. Seeing her so calm, Shen Ze was very satisfied.
"I'm going to your place tonight."
"Yes." Aunt Wan leaned forward again.
Her face was still calm, and no one could tell what she was thinking, but it made Mrs. Wan very angry.
He glared at Aunt Wan with gritted teeth.
"...
This little bitch actually got the upper hand. But what's the use of going to her place? How can you expect a chicken that doesn't lay eggs to cause any big trouble?
I was so angry in my heart, I didn't expect that this time I made such a mistake, not only did I fail to ruin the reputation of that dead girl.
I was even put under house arrest because of this. The more I think about it, the angrier I get. When I find a chance in the future, I will definitely deal with that damn girl.
