Chapter 94 95 Beaten to death with sticks, Shantao

In the neat and elegant wing, what came into view was a dead body that was no longer breathing.

"Ah!" Lin Yuqing was so frightened that she quickly stepped back, but stumbled on the steps and fell to the ground.

Her face was full of uneasiness and anxiety, as if it was constantly distorting.

Compared to Lin Yuqing, Shantao, who was standing behind the crowd, was no exception. She clenched her fingers hard, and a panic surged in her heart unconsciously.

"Yueyue, are you okay?" Wang Tang and Shen Qingmiao rushed into the room and looked at Lin Jianyue up and down.

Shen Qingmiao did not dare to look at the corpse, but stood beside Lin Jianyue extremely firmly.

At this time, Lin Jianyue was standing in the side room, with the corner of her mouth half-curled, her eyes closed casually, exuding a kind of indifference that would make people thousands of miles away.

"It's okay!" Lin Jianyue softly comforted Wang Tang and Shen Qingmiao, but her eyes fell on Lin Yuqing and Shantao, making them shiver.

"Your Highness, the wing room I just had had some smell, so I changed it to another one. Unexpectedly, a man dared to break into the little girl's wing room with evil intentions!" Lin Jianyue looked extremely quiet, but there was murder in her eyes. It means "This is your highness's private courtyard. I wonder what your highness means?"

As soon as these words came out, even Yang Shi'an felt ashamed. It was he who arranged the people in his own courtyard, but something like this happened. He really couldn't explain it.

"Come here, drag the body down and investigate this matter!" Yang Shi'an ordered.

The guards dragged the corpse out. When the corpse passed by Lin Yuqing, Lin Yuqing's lips were trembling. But at this moment, a jade pendant fell from the corpse's clothes.

"Wait!" Shen Weixun said. He knelt down and picked up the jade pendant on the ground, looking at it carefully.

"This jade pendant seems to belong to women, and it is extremely valuable. Your Highness can investigate here!" Shen Weixun said, handing the jade pendant to Yang Shi'an.

But as soon as Yang Shian received the jade pendant, his expression suddenly changed.

His face turned red with anger, and his eyes seemed to burst into flames. He turned around and slapped Shantao hard on the face, knocking Shantao to the ground.

"Your Highness!" Shan Tao quickly got up and knelt at the feet of the prince. He was dripping with cold sweat and his lips were trembling slightly as he looked at the jade pendant in the prince's hand.

"Your Highness, I was wronged!" Shan Tao kept begging for mercy and defending.

"You are unjust! This jade pendant was given to you by Gu Gu! How could it appear on another man now!" Yang Shi'an said, and kicked Shan Tao in the chest.

Although the prince looked delicate and frail, he had been practicing martial arts all year round. This kick made Shan Tao vomit blood and his eyes turned black.

Shantao clutched her chest, crawled to the prince's side, tugged at the hem of the prince's clothes, and begged, "I really don't care about this slave, I don't know this man!"

As she said that, Shantao's pain suddenly tightened. She looked at Lin Yuqing, pointed at Lin Yuqing and said, "It's you! You want to kill two birds with one stone, right?"

Lin Yuqing was pointed at by Shan Tao, and she subconsciously backed away. Especially at this time, Lin Jianyue looked at them with a smile, which made Lin Yuqing's hair stand on end.

"Your Highness, I was wronged! It's Lin Fengyi!" Shantao said, and quickly looked at Lin Yuqing and said loudly, "This is all Lin Fengyi's plan. Seeing that His Highness still had lingering feelings for Miss Lin, she first wanted to find someone to prevent the fire. Burn Miss Lin to death. If Miss Lin cannot be burned to death, then falsely accuse Miss Lin of having an affair with a man. This is all Lin Fengyi’s fault!"

"Your Highness! This is all nonsense. How could I do such a thing?" Lin Yuqing quickly defended, fearing that the prince would believe Shan Tao's words.

Shan Tao and Lin Yuqing began to bite each other, telling each other everything, and the prince's face became darker and darker.Everyone shook their heads when they heard this. There are many young masters from aristocratic families who came here today who are really talented and learned. They originally thought that the prince was stable and capable, but now that the prince can't even take care of his own backyard, everyone inevitably feels that the prince may not be able to do it. Get into that position.

"Your Highness only needs to find out who set the fire. He must have been bribed by Lin Fengyi!" Shan Tao shouted.

"Your Highness, this man is wearing Shan Tao's jade pendant in his clothes. I think he must have been ordered by Shan Tao. She is framing me!" Lin Yuqing argued.

While the two were arguing endlessly, Shen Weixun, who had left at some point, came back, holding a boy in commoner clothes in his hand.

"Your Highness, I found out that this person set the fire!" Shen Weixun said, throwing the person in front of Yang Shi'an.

When the young man saw it, he was so frightened that he kowtowed quickly. Without even questioning, he began to apologize, "Your Highness, please forgive me, Your Highness, please forgive me. Lin Fengyi asked me to do this. I am innocent!"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yuqing was so frightened that her face turned pale, but before Lin Yuqing could defend herself, she was suddenly slapped by Yang Shi'an.

"You are so good!" Yang Shi'an looked at Lin Yuqing with gloomy eyes, filled with disappointment.

In Yang Shi'an's mind, although Lin Yuqing had some petty tricks, he was sensible and generous. He never expected that Lin Yuqing would go against the will and kill people secretly despite knowing that he wanted to marry Lin Jianyue.

As a prince, the most intolerable thing for Yang Shi'an was deception, and he was deceived by a woman.

"Come here, take her back to Gu. She is not allowed to leave the room even half a step without Gu's permission!" Yang Shi'an said, and a guard had already pushed Lin Yuqing down without any respect or pity.

Shantao's face turned pale as he watched Lin Yuqing being dragged down.

"Second Miss, Second Miss, please save me!" Shan Tao crawled to Lin Jianyue's feet at this time, wanting to beg Lin Jianyue for forgiveness.

Lin Jianyue leaned forward slightly, gently tucked Shan Tao's loose hair behind her ears, and whispered into Shan Tao's ear, "When you and Lin Yuqing wanted to frame me, didn't you think about the consequences?"

One sentence made Shan Tao so shocked that he couldn't make a sound.

"If you dare to talk to a man in private, or even frame a noble man, you will be pulled down and beaten to death with sticks!" Yang Shi'an ordered, without any reluctance in his tone.

Compared with Lin Yuqing who had the support of the Marquis of Wu'an behind him, Shan Tao was just a maid, so Yang Shi'an could deal with Shan Tao without hesitation, without fearing anyone, and he could vent the anger in his heart at this time.

"No! No!" Shantao cried, suppressing the trembling feeling and trying to escape quickly, with uncontrollable panic in his eyes.

But soon the guards dragged her out like a rag, and they heard Shantao's shrill cries and the sound of boards slapping outside.

Soon there was no sound anymore. Lin Jianyue lowered her eyes and glanced at her palm, feeling calm in her heart.

Lin Jianyue never believed Shan Tao when she seemed to have surrendered. Therefore, after she moved into the north wing, she asked Li En to check the room immediately, but found that the room was filled with love poison.

Later, Lin Jianyue deliberately took advantage of the situation, and the eyebrow jade pendant that fell from the boy's body was also secretly taken by Lin Jianyue when he visited Shantao.

Shan Tao eventually died due to her self-righteous calculation.
