The guilty party complained first!
The Eldest Young Master was clearly complaining first.
Moreover, the Second Madam had heard some news on the way, which was why he came to question them directly.
"Who bullied my son? My son is the Eldest Young Master of the Chen family!" The Second Madam said domineeringly.
It could be said that in the Chen family.
Apart from the Old Madam, the Second Madam had the most power.
It was also because of the Second Madam that the Eldest Young Master could stabilize his current position. Although the Third Young Master and the Eighth Young Master were eyeing his position, no one dared to do anything to him.
"Hmm?" When the Second Madam saw Xiatian lying on the ground, she was also stunned. She heard that something might have happened to her son on the way, but she didn't know what exactly happened. "What … what happened?"
"Mother, he bullied me, insulted me, and called me trash …"
Whoosh!
A figure landed beside Xiatian.
"Reporting to the Old Madam, Second Madam, and Third Madam, the Sixth Young Master's heartbeat has stopped," the servant said respectfully.
No heartbeat.
Hearing this, the Second Madam's face turned purple.
Just now, he thought that it was a small matter, so he could say that black was white. But now that someone was dead, the situation was different. The Chen family's patriarchs hated it the most when their children killed each other.
"Hmm?" The Old Madam's eyes widened.
"Eldest Young Master, no matter how wrong Xiao Liu is, you can't kill him," the Third Madam said hurriedly.
For the Third Madam, this was an opportunity.
A great opportunity.
As long as she could persuade the Second Madam, she would be the second most powerful person in the Chen family's inner court. Although she seemed to have a good relationship with the Second Madam, in fact, it was because she didn't have a chance. As long as an opportunity appeared, she would immediately step on the Second Madam. Now that she thought that the opportunity had appeared, how could she miss this opportunity?
Murder.
She understood that this was a big crime. She could use this to sue the Eldest Young Master. As long as the Eldest Young Master fell, the Second Madam's position would be in vain. Sooner or later, it would be over.
She wouldn't be polite.
This was because Second Madam had used this method to move First Madam here.
Hearing Third Madam's words, Second Madam's face was full of anger. She usually took good care of Third Madam and even trained her as a confidant. But now, Third Madam actually bit her. "You …"
"Second sister, you can't be biased. The Chen family has rules. Although the eldest young master is your son, if he kills his own brother, you still have to follow the rules," said the third madam.
"Mother, I didn't. His body is too weak. I just wanted to scare him." Eldest Young Master hurriedly explained.
"That's right. Sixth Brother just came back, so it's normal for him to be in poor health. I heard that he was sick before he came back, so he might have died of illness. My son just happened to bump into him," said the second madam.
"There are so many people here watching …"
"Shut up! What a scandal!" Old Madam shouted. "Third Brother, tell me what happened."
"Old Madam, it's like this. A strange thing happened here this morning. Three to four thousand snow rats died in Sixth Brother's courtyard, so everyone wanted to come over and ask about it. Eldest Brother was too impatient and thought that Sixth Brother was an unlucky person, so he quarreled with him. Sixth Brother was also very rude and kept harping on Eldest Brother's loss in the archery competition. Then, Eldest Brother was angry and might have hit him a little harder." Third Young Master was very smooth with his words.
His words seemed to say that both Eldest Brother and Sixth Brother were responsible, but also seemed to say that neither of them was responsible.
But overall, he didn't offend anyone, and he also sued Eldest Young Master. Eldest Young Master couldn't be unreasonable, after all, Third Young Master had already spoken for him, so he couldn't say it out loud even though he knew that Third Young Master was scheming against him.
Old Madam's feet flashed and directly came to Xiatian's side. Then, she touched Xiatian's neck with her right hand.
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out.
Xiatian took a deep breath and sat up straight.
In fact, Xiatian was pretending to be dead just now. However, Old Madam was very strong. She used her strength to almost extend Xiatian's life, so Xiatian naturally couldn't continue pretending.
He woke up!
Eldest Young Master was relieved when he saw that Xiatian was awake.
However, Third Madam and Third Young Master's expressions were a little ugly.
They were just wishful thinking, but now that Xiatian wasn't dead, they couldn't sue Second Madam and Eldest Young Master. Just now, they were scheming against Second Madam and Eldest Young Master, so Second Madam and Eldest Young Master wouldn't let them go.
He was really scared just now. If Xiatian was really dead, he would be in trouble.
"Thank you, Old Madam," Xiatian said in a hoarse voice.
"Mm, it's good that you're fine." Old Madam stood up and looked at Eldest Young Master. "Come and apologize to your Sixth Brother."
"Old Madam, he's at fault too." Eldest Young Master didn't want to apologize to Xiatian. In his eyes, Xiatian was a little piece of trash. If he apologized to Xiatian, wouldn't he lose all his face?
"If I didn't come, Sixth Brother would be dead. If your father knows that you killed him, he'll kill you with one slap," Old Madam said expressionlessly. Then, she retreated.
"Hurry and apologize to your Sixth Brother," Second Madam said hurriedly.
"Oh!" Eldest Young Master walked to Xiatian unwillingly. From an angle where no one could see, he stared at Xiatian fiercely and said, "I have someone to rely on. I can slowly play with you."
"I'll directly eliminate you," Xiatian also replied verbally.
"I'm sorry, Sixth Brother!" Eldest Young Master said loudly.
Xiatian didn't reply.
"No matter what, you almost killed Sixth Brother this time. I'm going to put you in confinement for half a month," Old Madam said.
"Ah?" Eldest Young Master's face changed when he heard this.
"Old Madam, he already knows his mistake. Please let him go," Old Madam pleaded hurriedly.
"He's Eldest Young Master. No matter what the reason is, it's wrong for him to openly bring so many people to Sixth Brother's courtyard. Moreover, it's wrong for him to chase away his brothers. It's also wrong for him to bully the weak and bully his brothers. If it weren't for the fact that he's the big brother of these people, I'd directly put him in confinement for a year," Old Madam scolded.
"But …"
"Old Madam, I suspect that the snow rats here were deliberately planted by someone."
At this moment, Xiatian spoke. His voice was still a little hoarse.
