Did Miss become a nun today?

Shen Heng didn't care about any of that. Her perfectly good daughter had suffered so much because of him, and she couldn't swallow her anger if she didn't kill him!

The Prince Su on the ground chuckled, closing his eyes without flinching.

Xie Yun Chu was both anxious and shocked: "Your Highness Prince Su, my mother has a bad temper, have you gone mad too?"

He turned back and called to Zhao Mingyue, "What are you standing there for? Come and help!"

Zhao Mingyue then stepped forward to help her stop the people.

Shen Heng has a fiery temper and is always ready to stab someone in the back. Zhao Mingyue whispered a reminder: "Killing him now might feel good, but it will mean the extermination of your entire family. Think about Yun Chu. If you keep him alive, his status as a prince can still give Yun Chu a princess position. If he dies now, you'll lose everything."

"Yun Chu has been wronged, and we must get our money back with interest."

Shen Heng paused, her brows furrowing as she weighed those words over and over.

Xie Yun Chu snatched the dagger from her hand and threw it far away, then turned back and called to the guards not far away: "Quickly take your prince back."

Don't actually die here.

But the guards seemed rooted to the spot, not moving an inch, as if their master being beaten half to death had nothing to do with them.

It wasn't until Shen Heng gave him a cold glance that Zhao Zhang reluctantly raised his hand, and the guards stepped forward and hurriedly helped him up.

"Ah Heng..."

"roll!"

Xie Yun Chu stood there, watching the guards carry Zhao Zhang away into the distance, a chill running down her spine.

The scene just now was too terrifying. She clenched her trembling hands and suddenly felt that her past was nothing.

Her mother really wanted to kill someone just now.

Looking up at Shen Heng, her mother patted her sleeve as if swatting away mosquitoes.

Shen Heng glanced back at her, the fierceness in her eyes still lingering, but she softened slightly when looking at her daughter: "Were you frightened?"

"......fine."

She just didn't expect her mother to be so bold; if they hadn't stopped her, she really would have stabbed the person.

"Don't be afraid." Shen Heng walked over and patted her on the shoulder. "Your mother has traveled all over the country over the years. What haven't I seen? Zhao Zhang just needs to be taught a lesson."

"Don't worry, I won't kill him." She patted her daughter's head. "I'm a bad mother. I didn't protect you well, which is why others bullied you."

"He schemed against you, so naturally he has to make amends. From now on, he'll use his position to back you up."

Zhao Mingyue nodded frantically beside her, "That's right, that's right. If Mother had really stabbed her just now, Yun Chu's position as a princess would have been ruined."

Xie Yun Chu was both amused and exasperated: "What would I do with the title of princess?"

"I'm here to give you face," Zhao Mingyue said matter-of-factly. "Once you become a princess, who will dare to cause trouble? Although Prince Su is not a good person, his name is useful. Even if you become a nun, you will still be a princess nun, and no one will dare to bully you."

Xie Yun Chu couldn't help but laugh out loud at the words "princess nun," and the tension in her heart completely dissipated.

She went up to her mother and comforted her, saying, "Mom, I'm fine. You don't need to get angry about this."

Shen Heng was truly surprised that her daughter was so open-minded. Although she didn't care about a woman's chastity, her daughter had been raised in the capital since childhood and didn't care about such things either.

"I have lived well in the Marquis's mansion for so many years. My aunt has been good to me, and the Marquis has been good to me as well. Consider this my way of repaying the kindness I have shown over the years."

Before he could finish speaking, he received a slap on the head. "What did you say?"

"Even if you have to pay it back, who gave you the right to do it this way?"

"If your aunt is good to you, that's your aunt's kindness. What does it have to do with Pei Changyu and Pei Changfeng?"

Cen Jingyan knew what her son had done, and she would only be angrier.

She never wanted a son before having children. Back then, the Cen family valued sons and neglected their daughter, who was capable of fighting on the battlefield.

Later, seeing that his son was too weak to stand up, he had no choice but to rely on her.

Even so, her situation at home was not good. Her military achievements were ultimately given to her brothers. After meeting Shen Heng, it was Shen Heng who helped her reclaim her military achievements.

Cen Jingyan didn't like boys, but she gave birth to two sons in a row. When she gave birth to the children, she cried terribly.

She even threatened to throw the child out, saying she didn't want him at all. It took a lot of effort from the old lady of the Pei family and Marquis Zhaoping to calm her down.

Given her temper, Pei Changyu was in for a rough time.

Cen Jingyan certainly did not disappoint Shen Heng.

Upon finding the secret passage at Songheyuan and seeing Xie Yun Chu, they immediately ordered their son to be tied up.

"Mother, you can tie up my elder brother, but why tie me up? I didn't do anything wrong," Pei Changfeng protested.

Cen Jingyan now finds herself unable to stand the sight of her two sons.

Not only is the younger one bad at judging things, but he's also stupid.

The older one isn't stupid, but he's too cunning and will harm others.

He suddenly turned to Marquis Zhaoping, "Look at your good son, who does he look like?"

How could someone as open and honest as her raise such a rebellious son?

Marquis Zhaoping glanced at his wife's face, not daring to provoke her, and said, "You can deal with these two people today. It doesn't matter if you beat them to death. Anyway, we're only forty years old. It's not impossible to have another one."

Pei Changfeng's eyes widened. "Father, are you speaking human language?"

"If Mother had agreed to marry my cousin to me in the first place, this whole mess wouldn't have happened, and my cousin wouldn't have suffered such injustice."

As she spoke, she glanced at her eldest brother, who had remained silent since entering, and said sneer, "I really can't believe it. Didn't you claim to be a gentleman who doesn't fight or compete?"

"Now everyone outside is saying that our Marquis's mansion is all show and no substance, and we really have to thank our elder brother for that."

Upon hearing this, Cen Jingyan lashed out with her whip, "How dare you criticize him? And what about you?"

Pei Changfeng shrank back as he was hit.

"You two unfilial sons, how could I have given birth to two beasts like you?"

The sound of whipping continued for half an hour in the courtyard. Cen Jingyan was exhausted, and the people kneeling in the courtyard were also beaten until their skin was torn and bleeding.

The old lady rushed in, heartbroken and indignant. "What a tragedy! What a tragedy! What have you done?"

Marquis Zhaoping stepped forward to help her up. "Mother, what brings you here?"

"If I don't come, will your daughter-in-law beat my grandson to death?" The old lady said coldly, slamming her cane down on her cane.

"A cousin of unknown identity, and Changyu has already agreed to marry her. She's the principal wife of a Marquis's son, what more could she want?"

Marquis Zhaoping's eyelids twitched, and he whispered, "Mother, please stop talking. Yun Chu was raised by Jingyan since she was a child, and she is no different from her own daughter. These two boys deserve a beating."

He couldn't accept it if his own pigs rooted up his cabbage.

The old lady glared at her son. "Have you no backbone? Ever since she married into the family, you've been doting on your daughter-in-law. What, you just let me watch my grandson get beaten to death, and I can't even do anything about it?"

Cen Jingyan threw down the whip and looked at the old lady, showing no respect to her mother-in-law for the first time.

"Mother, this is my son. It's my fault for not teaching him well, and it's my responsibility to discipline him. Even if I beat him to death today, he deserves it."

"If he can walk out of this courtyard unharmed today, our entire Pei family will suffer tomorrow."
