Chapter 162: Help Me
In the past, Shen Xian felt that no matter how ruthless Shi Yu was, he still had to pay attention to etiquette.
Even if he locked herself up, she was still Princess Xuan, and he didn't dare to touch her.
But now she understands that since he started planning all this, where has there been any etiquette and love?
If he can get what he wants, he won't care about anything.
Shen Xian stayed up all night and kicked Xiang Nong and Shi Ying out of the room. She lay in the quilt alone, her tears falling silently and disappearing into the pillow.
Her palms held the Yujue hanging around her neck tightly, so tight that it ached and she didn't want to let go.
There is an unsightly word "Xian" on this piece of jade, which is a token given to her by Shi Ling.
He once said that having it around was like Shi Ling being by his side, but it wasn't the case after all.
Shen Xian really wanted to hold Shi Ling and cry loudly. Even though she didn't know how her Ziqing was doing now, whether she was thinking about her or whether she had found a way to find her.
If he dared to believe the rumors spread outside, Shen Xian would definitely give him a beating.
Shen Xian thought about it but couldn't help but be afraid. If he really believed it, what would she do?
The next day, Shi Yu really sent someone to pick her up. Even if she deliberately delayed her time and didn't go out, Shi Yu didn't intend to let her go.
He went directly into the house and dragged her out of the Mei Shuang Palace.
This was the second time she walked out of Meishuang Palace, and she was reluctant every time.
As soon as she went out, she ran into the pregnant Xiao Hui. Her eyes fell on the intertwined hands of Shen Xian and Shi Yu, and she became angry.
But when he saw Shen Xian's expression on his face asking for help, his expression became dull.
Is she not dazzled?
Shen Xian asked her for help?
She lowered her head and shook her head and then looked up. Shen Xian had been stuffed into the carriage by Shi Yu. Shi Yu looked over coldly, as if to warn her not to come near.
Xiao Hui found it ridiculous.
Sure enough, I had misjudged her just now. She was now abandoned by Shi Yu, and her father and brother didn't care. How could she save her when she couldn't even save herself?
As soon as Shen Xian got on the carriage, Shi Yu tied her hands with silk and satin. Although it was gentler than hemp rope, it still hurt.
"Let me go!"
Shi Yu: "If you want me to seal your mouth again, just say so."
Shen Xian gritted her teeth and looked at her, but she stopped talking and just huddled in the corner.
Shi Yu withdrew his eyes with satisfaction, poured her a cup of tea, and passed it to her mouth. Shen Xian closed her eyes and pretended not to notice.
Shi Yu chuckled: "You'd better cooperate with me soon. Those aristocratic families are all stubborn. If I don't touch them, they might do other things if they get angry."
Shen Xian opened her eyes and stared at him.
"You just need to say more good things about me in front of them and persuade them to stop being stubborn. It will be easy and you will suffer less bumps, right?"
Shen Xian grinded her teeth, as if she wanted to bite the person in front of her.
She said: "You don't have anything good to say in my eyes, and I can't do anything about it."
Shi Yu didn't rush to refute her, but just looked ahead meaningfully: "It doesn't matter, you might be able to explain it later."
Shen Xian hummed a single note from her nose to express her dissatisfaction.
The carriage stopped in front of a quaint but majestic large manor. Shen Xian saw through the gap in the car window that the plaque read "Yuan Mansion."
The ancestors of the Yuan Mansion in Huai'an also had royal relatives. Although they were a little lonely in this generation, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, especially since Mr. Yuan is now a literary giant of the generation.
Shen Xian didn't have time to think too much before she was pulled out of the carriage by Shi Yu.
At this moment, the Yuan Mansion has been surrounded by the Forbidden Army, and it seems that they are deliberately waiting for them to come.
Shen Xian just raised her head and saw the open door. The Yuan family members were kneeling all over the yard, wailing in pain and begging the imperial army to let them go.
The leader, Mrs. Yuan, looked up to the sky and shouted something, as if he was scolding God for being unfair.
Shen Xian's nose suddenly sore and she dared not look at it.
However, Shi Yu forced her into the Yuan Mansion.
As soon as she entered, she was recognized by the Yuan family. Some people even shouted at her: "Princess Xuan, please save us. Please tell the third prince that we no longer participate in court battles. Please save us!"
"Princess Xuan, your father and I were old friends. You must not ignore her until death!"
The silk in Shen Xian's hands was hidden under her wide sleeves, so no one could see that she was also Shi Yu's prisoner.
She bit her lower lip and dared not speak.
Shi Yu slowly walked forward, scanned the faces of those people, and finally landed on Mr. Yuan.
"Mr. Yuan, I think you should understand what I mean. This grand presentation will eventually be in my hands, so why should you be stubborn?"
Mr. Yuan's old eyes should have been dim and gray, but the moment he saw Shi Yu, he immediately burst into anger.
Roared: "Shameless boy! How can you be the king of a country with no talent and virtue!? His Majesty already made it clear before his death that you could not ascend the throne. Your wolfish ambition is destined to fail!"
Displeasure suddenly appeared on Shi Yu's face, he took a deep breath and stood up, turned around and grabbed Shen Xian's neck and threw her in front of the Yuan family.
"It's your turn, A-Xian."
He leaned close to Shen Xian's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If you want to keep them, you have to think about Xiang Nong and Shi Ying."
Shen Xian burst into tears as soon as her voice came out. She gritted her teeth and managed to say: "You can't touch them!"
Shi Yu: "Then help me."
Shen Xian swallowed even more and looked down at her toes, not daring to look at those people.
She hesitated and said: "Uncles and aunts...I, I am the legitimate daughter of the Shen family. I don't want any of you to be harmed...so...so please..."
She really couldn't say those words.
Her lips almost bled from being bitten by her, but she couldn't control her emotions.
The Yuan family guessed what Shen Xian was going to say, and suddenly someone stood up and got angry: "Shen Xian! Who are you, the legitimate daughter of the Shen family, to actually help Shi Yu in his evil deeds?"
"We have misjudged you! Even if all our Yuan family members die today, we will never let this villain get his wish! And you, Shen Xian, will be despised by the world and will be infamy for thousands of years!"
"How can you be worthy of Duke Shen, and how can you be worthy of Prince Xuan! To hang out with Shi Yu is simply an insult to gentlemen!"
Old Mr. Yuan also closed his eyes and said, "You rats, you are extremely dirty and capable!"
Shen Xian wanted to say that she didn't, she just wanted to protect the people she cared about, but she was just caught by Shi Yu!
But she was speechless now.
Seeing them scolding Shen Xian angrily, Shi Yu tilted his head in displeasure and said solemnly: "It seems that you won't shed tears until you see the coffin, you have to see blood."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone had already pulled out the big knife in his hand and was about to capture and kill a member of the Yuan family.
Shen Xian immediately shouted: "Don't kill anyone!"
She stared at Shi Yu closely, her pupils covered with bloodshot eyes: "I beg you not to kill them, don't..."
Shi Yu was not moved.
Shen Xian ran over and grabbed him by the collar and said angrily: "If you kill anyone in the Yuan family, the entire capital will know about it tomorrow, and all your plans will be in vain!"
