Chapter 570: Both Daughters Are Ruined by the Same Trash
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Ah! My hand hurts so much! My hand is about to rot!”
Zhang Qingxi clutched his hand, screaming with all his might.
Initially, they thought he was in pain from Zhang Qian’s blows. However, he had already cried out in pain, his voice hoa.r.s.e, and it was impossible for him to suddenly start complaining about his hand hurting so badly.
As a mother, Wei Shi hurriedly examined his hand, and everyone realized that the back of Zhang Qingxi’s hand had rotted away!
Visible decay!
They watched in horror as the skin on Zhang Qingxi’s hand turned black, as if it had been scorched by fire; then, the blackened skin decayed, revealing the flesh inside. The thin layer of flesh on the back of his hand quickly turned into pus, oozing out bit by bit; finally, the bones were exposed.
Everyone watched in horror, some even recoiled in fear!
It was terrifying, akin to liquefied corpse water!
Zhang Wan’er looked at Liu Shimei in shock. “Did you do this? I remember, at noon, my brother grabbed you, and you touched his hand. Did you do something to him?”
Se??ch ?ew?o?e? /o?g o? ?oo?l?
Liu Shimei looked innocent. “Cousin Wan’er, you can eat random things, but you can’t say random things! He grabbed my arm, and you suspect I did something to him. Why didn’t you say he was being inappropriate with me when you saw him grab me? I have a fiance and won’t allow you to tarnish my reputation like this!”
She then turned to look at Liu Fuyun and said, “Father, doesn’t this cousin of disrespect our Grand Chancellor’s Residence too much? He attempted to molest me at noon, sneaked into Sister Yan’er’s room at lunchtime, committing this heinous crime! How can he hold our family in such contempt?”
Zhang Qingxi slept with the designated Crown Princess candidate, different from Huangfu Lingyao.
Huangfu Lingyao was also a Prince. If Liu Shimei, the designated Crown Princess consort, was taken by him, they could just find another son for her to marry. They could handle the situation.
But Zhang Qingxi was in trouble from the start because he didn’t have an Emperor father.
“Zhang Qian, what a fine son you’ve raised!” Liu Fuyun was absolutely furious!
His legitimate daughter was ruined, and now the second legitimate daughter was also ruined!
“For so many years, I have dedicated myself to raising you, and this is how you repay me? You’ve raised a useless son and even tried to harm my two daughters?” The father, despite not loving his daughters, was still furious that both his daughters were targeted by the same sc.u.m.
Of course, this anger stemmed from losing face!
Even more, it came from Yan’er being ruined!
When the Lord Grand Chancellor was angry, his imposing manner was indeed overwhelming. Zhang Qian’s whole body stiffened, and he couldn’t withstand the pressure, so he immediately knelt down and said, “It’s this subordinate’s fault for not teaching my son properly. Lord Grand Chancellor, please calm your anger! This subordinate… This subordinate is willing to obey all of Lord Grand Chancellor’s arrangements!”
Willing to obey all arrangements. His att.i.tude clearly indicated that even if Liu Fuyun wanted his son’s life, he would comply!
Sons born from secondary wives were still sons. If worse came to worst, they could have more children now. But if he couldn’t keep his official hat, then there would be no future to speak of!
He could think like this, but Madam Wei was unwilling. She glared at him and said, “Zhang Qian, are you really going to push our son out to die?”
Zhang Qian’s face stiffened as he said, “Am I the one pushing him to his death? Do you not know what kind of person you’ve raised him into? Just two months before we returned to the Imperial Capital, he got a decent woman pregnant, and he refused to bring her home just because he didn’t find her attractive enough! He drove the girl to the river, where she attempted suicide.. Have you forgotten that so quickly?”
