The God of War is killing like crazy

Chapter 122 The legitimate daughter whose engagement was broken off 19

The Princess's Mansion was extremely efficient, and combined with the two servants that Si Ying had sent earlier, they quickly found out the mastermind behind the incident, and it turned out to be Chu Ziyu.

It was he who bought the medicine and bribed the servants to administer the drug. As for who the medicine was intended for, the eldest princess naturally did not tell anyone. She only announced to the public that the two brothers accidentally ingested it.

However, she still sent someone to tell the prime minister's wife and the prince and his wife. As for Si Ying, the eldest princess, as her aunt, naturally had to ask for an explanation on Si Ying's behalf in person.

The prince wanted to argue at first, but all the evidence pointed to his youngest son, whom he valued the most. He recalled that his youngest son was doing something sneaky a few days ago, and he caught him and asked him a few questions. The youngest son just said that he was asked to prepare the betrothal gifts and wait to go to the prime minister's residence to propose marriage.

When the prince thought about it now, he immediately guessed the general ins and outs of the matter. He never expected that his youngest son, who had always been smart, would do such a stupid thing.

The prince was both furious and angry. He had no choice but to apologize and reluctantly gave two shops on the busy streets of the capital to Si Ying and the prime minister's daughter.

The prince's heart was bleeding. He had already given away half of his family property because he listened to his youngest son's advice. Later, he gave away another part of his family property to support those scholars and writers in taking imperial examinations. His reputation had improved a lot, but it was really a waste of money.

Especially that group of poor scholars, whose essays in the exams were terrible. When I didn't give them money, they criticized the Prince's Mansion with their writings flying, with ups and downs, and with great passion.

The prince had supported them in taking the imperial examinations for many years, but they still failed and continued to spend his money as if it was their right.

The prince could only swallow his anger and be the scapegoat. As soon as he stopped giving money to that group of people, the next day articles criticizing and satirizing him were everywhere, more than the memorials impeaching him from the Censorate.

The prince is not a corrupt official. His family wealth was limited to begin with, and now most of it is gone. The reputation he had restored with great difficulty has now been completely lost because of this incident. He even has to give away his two most valuable shops.

He was so angry that he only had two sons, and both of them came to collect debts, ruining his reputation.

At this moment, he was a little envious of Minister Wei, whom he usually looked down upon. He might as well learn from him, have more concubines and have more children. If this one didn't work, he could divorce her quickly and replace her with another one.

In the end, the matter was resolved by making a big thing small and a small thing nothing.

Under the treatment of the imperial physician, Chu Zisu and Chu Ziyu both regained consciousness, but they still had some memories of what happened before. When they recalled what had happened before, they wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. It was too embarrassing.

Especially after Chu Zisu found out that it was his younger brother Chu Ziyu who did everything, he hated him very much in his heart. He had already been forgotten by everyone, and now, he had become the laughing stock of the whole capital. If he hadn't just recovered and his hands and feet had no strength yet, he would have wanted to strangle Chu Ziyu to death.

Chu Ziyu was also feeling depressed and angry. He finally experienced the pain that Chu Zisu had felt before. Originally, he was the only one with a good reputation in the Prince's Mansion, but now, he had become a joke that others talked about.

All he wanted now was to kill those servants who were more likely to cause trouble than help. However, before he had the chance to cause trouble for the servants, trouble found him first.

It turns out that Wei Lanxue, who had been looking for an opportunity to blackmail Chu Ziyu after she had recovered from her illness, was also at the Princess's Mansion today. She sneaked in by disguising herself as a kitchen servant. Of course, the Princess's Mansion was so heavily guarded that she definitely couldn't get in by herself. It was thanks to Si Ying who sent someone to leak the news to her and secretly helped her to successfully sneak in.

She had been looking for opportunities to threaten Chu Ziyu for money. The little money her father, Lord Wei, had given her was spent in a few days, and even the private money that little Wei had secretly saved was squandered by the two of them.

The reason why Wei Lanxue spent money so openly was because she had something on Chu Ziyu and kept blackmailing him to make a living. However, Chu Ziyu was busy pretending to be a studious and ambitious, so he moved to the academy. The academy was full of men, so Wei Lanxue would not be able to get in without his help.

So she waited and waited, and finally got her chance. She heard that the eldest princess was hosting a banquet and the prince and his family were going, so she successfully sneaked in.

Now she overheard in secret that the prince was going to give away his two best shops as compensation, and she could no longer stay there.

When the princess had finished dealing with the matter and was about to ask the butler to arrange to send everyone back, she rushed in and directly said that she had also been wronged and demanded compensation from the Prince's Mansion.

Then, afraid of being dragged away, she quickly told everything. It was Chu Ziyu who secretly instigated her and Sun Yuerong to harm each other. She also produced evidence to prove that the medicine she used to harm people was bought by Chu Ziyu himself and given to him. It was Chu Ziyu who deliberately caused Chu Zisu to lose his two unborn children.

Wei Lanxue felt that she was also a victim and demanded that the Prince's Mansion give her some money as compensation.

The eldest princess rubbed her forehead, waved her hand and sent people to investigate. Anyway, her place had become a court, so this one matter didn't matter.

The Prince and Princess naturally tried to stop them. Their Mansion was already shameful enough, and they didn't want to spread any more family scandals like this.

At this moment, an angry voice came from the door, "Father, Mother, let them check!"

It was Chu Zisu who had just been supported by someone. He didn't expect to hear such shocking news as soon as he came in. He spoke angrily and looked at Chu Ziyu who was also supported by someone next to him.

The murderous intent in his eyes almost became reality. Chu Zisu originally thought that he had lost his only bloodline due to the jealousy and fighting between two women. He did not expect that it was his own brother who was behind the conspiracy and fanning the flames.

The prince gave up completely. He sat there, having given up struggling. He told them to investigate, no matter what.

The princess ran to her youngest son angrily, slapped him hard and cursed, "You unlucky star, I shouldn't have given birth to you. Look what you have done to our family. I will beat you to death."

She didn't like Chu Ziyu in the first place, and Wei Lanxue produced evidence to prove that the death of the two children was Chu Ziyu's plan. Although the people who investigated had not returned yet, the Princess already had the answer in her mind. She thought that everything was done by her unlucky youngest son, and she really hated Chu Ziyu now.

The resentment of so many years seemed to have found a breakthrough. She felt in her heart that it was Chu Ziyu who caused her Su'er to become what he was now.

She beat people like crazy and was finally dragged back to her seat by the princess's men. They were going to fight back home as the princess didn't want anyone to die in her own house.

When the people who were about to leave saw that there was something big to eat, they immediately decided not to leave and stayed to continue watching the fun. Si Ying sat aside and watched the show with everyone else.

Soon, the people who were sent came back with witnesses and evidence, proving that it was indeed Chu Ziyu who bought the medicine. He designed everything to harm his own brother's flesh and blood. The Princess finally fainted in despair.

The prince had no choice but to have Chu Ziyu tied up, and then left in disgrace with the unconscious princess and Chu Zisu.

When Wei Lanxue saw that she had not yet gained any benefits, she hurriedly followed them to the Prince's Mansion.
