Chapter 241 The ruthless and cold-blooded prince’s scumbag father (13)

At that time, Mrs. Li still had true love for Marquis Wu'an and expected a husband who would treat her wholeheartedly. However, Marquis Wu'an was suave but also a traditional and chauvinistic man.

He was the legitimate son since he was a child, and he inherited the position of Marquis of Wu'an early when he grew up. There is no doubt that he is the proud son of heaven.

Marquis Wu'an did like Li when he first married her, but he did not have the idea of ​​being with Li for the rest of his life. He could only ensure that the position of Mrs. Li's wife Wu'anhou remained unchanged.

But what Li wanted was Marquis Wu'an's sincerity, so when Li was pregnant with Shen Xiyao, Marquis Wu'an brought two women back from outside and became his concubines.

This was the beginning of a long period of quarrel between Marquis Wu'an and the Li family.

Shen Xiyao grew up watching her parents' quarrels. Even Mrs. Li felt that Marquis Wu An would change his mind at that time because she was pregnant with Shen Xiyao. In addition, Mrs. Li wanted to have a son and inherit the throne in the future. Although she was the Marquis of Wu'an, Shen Xiyao was a girl. For various reasons, Mrs. Li became even more unhappy with Shen Xiyao. Although she never beat or scolded her, she would ignore her.

As for the father Wu Anhou, he is also dispensable to the daughter Shen Xiyao.

Therefore, Shen Xiyao grew up with her parents quarreling, her father neglecting her, and her mother's cold violence. At that time, people at this time did not know what cold violence was.

It was not until later that the Marquis had more and more women, and Li gave birth to a son as she wished, that she gave up on Marquis Wu'an, and the quarrels disappeared.

But she would not be close to Shen Xiyao and would only focus on her son.

And the harm she brought to Shen Xiyao still exists.

When Zhang Yuanxiao was analyzing Shen Xiyao and learned about the situation in the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, he could tell that Shen Xiyao was a person who lacked love.

It is precisely because of this that Shen Xiyao fell in love with the original owner so deeply, like a moth to a flame.

In her previous life, Shen Xiyao was also burned by the "fire" of the original owner.

Shen Xiyao was different from other ladies of the wealthy family since she was a child. The other daughters of the wealthy family studied chess, calligraphy and painting, but Shen Xiyao liked riding and shooting. She often went to the countryside to ride horses. In addition to working as a chess girl and studying, she also played other chess and chess games. Painting is out of the question.

People in the capital only thought that Marquis Wu'an and his wife were too indulgent and fond of their legitimate daughter, but they didn't know that this was because Shen Xiyao had no one to care for her since she was a child.

And she was also lacking love and gradually became rebellious.

As soon as Mrs. Li came in, she began to observe Shen Xiyao from a distance, who was in name only her biological daughter.

She still remembered the time she met Shen Xiyao more than half a year ago. At that time, she didn't know that Shen Xiyao was pregnant, but she could clearly see that her body was thin and her spirit was not good. She also believed what was said outside. , the Crown Princess was not favored even if she gave birth to the heir, Chengjia.

People outside are spreading rumors that the Crown Prince does not like the Crown Princess, but likes someone else. Even Emperor Qianyuan mentioned Chengjia’s position as Crown Prince, and only then did the Crown Prince grant him the title. Otherwise, even if Chengjia was the Crown Prince’s second A child, a biological son, cannot sit in the position of the crown prince.

Those people said that the prince was very obsessed with that woman and would one day take her to the prince's residence. When the woman gave birth to a child, the position of Crown Princess Shen Xiyao and the position of Crown Prince Chengjia might have to be given up. .

Marquis Wu'an and the Li family originally placed their hopes on their daughter after she married the prince, but their daughter's lack of favor quickly made them stop thinking about it.

A few years passed like this, and everyone in the capital knew that the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince were not favored.

But in the past two months, when the prince came back from Jiangnan, he miraculously began to dote on the princess. He didn't even go to the backyard to dote on his concubines. There was a general attitude that the princess wanted to be doted on all by herself.

The prince also began to pay attention to Crown Prince Chengjia.

The reason is said to be that the prince has calmed down and let go of the white moonlight in his heart. Now the cinnabar mole in his heart has become the prince, and the only one.

No matter what the reason for the prince's change was, it was a fact that he now doted on the prince concubine, and it was said that Emperor Qianyuan was disgusted with it.

As a result, Marquis Wu'an and Mr. Li's minds became active again.

This was also a rare occasion for the couple to get together to plan after their falling out, to plan for their son, and to plan for the Marquis of Wu'an.

This time, Mr. Li came here just to test things out.

There are rumors out there, but whether it is true or not, you have to come and see for yourself.

At this glance, Mrs. Li felt that the daughter in front of her was a bit strange.

In Li's memory, Shen Xiyao was rebellious and flamboyant when she was in the boudoir, but she was also sensitive. She was also used to keeping a cold face and didn't have many emotions. She would only smile unless she encountered a special situation.

When Shen Xiyao smiled, her smile was undoubtedly bright, but the only time Li saw her smile was when Shen Xiyao was about to marry the prince.

Later, Shen Xiyao married into the Prince's Mansion. Although they only met a few times in the past few years, every time they met, it could be seen with the naked eye that Shen Xiyao's body was losing weight, her spirit became worse and worse, and there was a gloomy look on her eyebrows.

Although she cannot be said to be a deeply resentful woman, she seems to be living a dissatisfied life.

It was also because of this that Mrs. Li believed that Shen Xiyao was not favored.

And what about Shen Xiyao now?

He is not plump, but he has gained weight. He is not as frail and thin as before. The originally pale complexion on his face has become rosy, and the depression between his eyebrows has disappeared without knowing when.

She didn't have that kind of arrogance about her body, but she looked very quiet and gentle.

It was like soft light falling on her body, so comfortable that people couldn't help but want to get closer.

With this look, Mr. Li was sure that Shen Xiyao's favor during this period was true.

In Li's view, if a woman wants to live a good life, there are only two things she wants: one is to have power in her hands, and the other is to have the nourishment of a man.

But now Shen Xiyao seems to have both.

Li felt jealous when she thought that the proud prince of the day actually cared so much about Shen Xiyao and Jiao Fang was the only one who favored her.

It's not that she has any thoughts about the prince, but that Shen Xiyao's behavior makes her envious and jealous, even though Shen Xiyao is her biological daughter.

Once upon a time, she also hoped that the aloof and charming Marquis Wu'an would be with her for the rest of her life, but in the end, it was just her own delusion.

But now, her daughter may have achieved it.

These thoughts only lasted a moment. Thinking of the purpose of coming today, Li quickly did it, and a smile appeared on her face covered with heavy makeup.

"Xiyao, seeing you like this and living so well, I feel relieved. Now that the prince loves you so much, you have finally come to the end of your hardships..."

Mrs. Li's voice was soft as she talked about Shen Xiyao's difficulties in the past. She seemed to be thinking of something sad, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, making her eye circles red for me.

She began to lament that now Shen Xiyao's hardships have finally come to an end. In the future, with Chengjia, the child in her belly, and the prince's favor, Shen Xiyao's status will be stable in the future.

Shen Xiyao had a calm expression from the beginning to the end, quietly watching the person in front of her act, because she had known what the person in front of her looked like since she was a child.

Caiyun was a little anxious, how long will the lady stay? Nothing seems to have happened, but Gege is about to give birth now. It's very hard and she can't sit still for such a long time. But Caiyun is just a maid and can't do anything to instruct Madam Hou.

Mrs. Li didn't seem to notice Shen Xiyao's cold eyes, and she was acting in her own way, finally revealing her intentions, "Xiyao, you are living a good life now, but your little brother and I are in the Hou Mansion. ...That father of yours has always favored those children born to bitches."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Li's eyes showed a fierce light, "Your father is unreliable. Now the only one we, mother and son, can rely on is you. Xiyao, Ah Huan is your biological brother and your only brother. You have to help." He, only if he gets better, can you and Chengjia have real support in the future..."

There was a hint of ridicule in Shen Xiyao's eyes, and the fox's tail was finally exposed today.

Speaking of her younger brother, Shen Huan as Li said, Shen Xiyao remembered that she hadn't seen him for many years, probably four or five years since she got married.

In the final analysis, Shen Huan just doesn't have her as a sister in his heart.

Shen Huan is four years younger than Shen Xiyao.

Shen Xiyao married Zhang Yuanxiao at the age of sixteen. Now Chengjia is four years old, that is, five years have passed. Shen Xiyao is now twenty-one, and Shen Huan is also eighteen years old. Shen Huan was married when she was married. Thirteen too.

Although they are biological brothers from the same mother, the relationship between Shen Xiyao and Shen Huan is not very good.

When she was young, Shen Xiyao had no expectations for her parents, but she had expectations for her younger brother Shen Huan.

She still remembers Shen Huan's small, white and chubby appearance and his clear eyes when he was born.

But as Shen Huan grew older, everything changed.

Mrs. Li was very strict with Shen Huan and did not let him have more contact with his sister Shen Xiyao. She felt that as the future heir of the Hou family, Shen Huan could not play with a rebellious and useless girl like Shen Xiyao, otherwise he would Being led astray.

Li also continued to belittle Shen Xiyao in front of Shen Huan.

At that time, Shen Huan was still an ignorant child. The first person the child relied on and trusted was his mother. In addition, Mrs. Li did love Shen Huan. Over time, she believed Li's words, which not only alienated Shen Xiyao. , he also looked down upon Shen Xiyao as a sister more and more, and would even mock and ridicule Shen Xiyao from time to time.

Over time, Shen Xiyao no longer had any expectations for her younger brother Shen Huan.

Although Marquis Wu'an had many concubines and concubines, he still valued his legitimate sons.

Therefore, the connivance and pampering of Shen Huan by Marquis Wu'an and the Li family made Shen Huan grow crooked over time.

When Shen Huan was eleven years old, he had a fight with the maid who was serving him. Although the maid drank the abortion pill, Shen Huan's romantic temperament got out of control after that. The maids and concubines also often come in and out of the brothel.

Shen Huan also likes extravagance and often spends a lot of money.

Although he is not good at reading or martial arts, he still likes to ride horses.

Once while riding a horse in a downtown area, the horse lost control and killed a young tofu vendor.

The vendor has elderly parents, a wife, and two young sons.

The death of the small street vendor directly worsened the situation for this poor family.

Later, Mrs. Li asked the housekeeper to come forward and spent money to prevent the family from going to the government office to report the crime.

But it is a fact that Shen Huan, at such a young age, has a human life in his hands.

Shen Xiyao once tried to persuade Shen Huan, but what she got in return was Shen Huan's anger and suppression. Shen Huan felt that her sister was too lenient, and Shen Huan even suppressed Shen Xiyao during that period. During that time, Shen Xiyao also had a difficult time in Wu'an Hou Mansion.

It was also after this time that Shen Xiyao stopped trying to persuade Shen Huan and no longer regarded him as her younger brother.

And Shen Huan has never changed.

In the past few years, after she got married, she had not even seen her biological sister once, not even a letter of greetings.

Don't Marquis Wu'an, Li Shi and Shen Huan know that she has had a hard time in the Prince's Mansion over the years and how much pressure she has endured from public opinion?

They knew it, but they chose to ignore it.

However, Shen Xiyao could occasionally get news about Wu'an Hou Mansion from Caiyun.

Knowing that her father, Marquis Wu'an, has continued to have concubines and concubines in recent years, knowing that her mother, Li, has been fighting with these concubines from time to time, knowing that Shen Huan is getting worse and worse, and has completely become a bad person.
