The only person in the entire palace who can slap Su Mo in the face is Xiao Beiheng.

Seeing tears in Su Mo's eyes, Shen Yuexi didn't answer her questions, so she directly took her hand and pulled her to the table, asking, "Is it because you let Doctor Hua and his son go?"

Su Mo nodded first, then shook her head, and whispered: "No...he has never hit me before."

"This bastard," Shen Yuexi cursed and rushed towards the door, "How could he do this?"

After taking only two steps, Su Mo reached out and grabbed her sleeves, saying in a panic: "Sister-in-law, don't go. Beiheng hasn't slept for many days and has a very bad temper. He didn't beat me because of Doctor Hua's matter."

"Why is that?" Shen Yuexi stopped.

Su Mo hesitated and said: "He asked me why I let Doctor Hua and his son go... I wanted to reassure him, so I said my sister-in-law was here... He slapped me in the face and went out."

Shen Yuexi put her hands on her hips and looked up at the roof. She didn't know if she should continue to be angry for Su Mo.

What caused this...it turned out that Su Mo tipped off Xiao Beiheng after them. If Su Mo hadn't revealed the news, Xiao Beiheng would not have captured her.

Su Mo seemed to be afraid that she would not understand, and then explained: "Bei Heng was very panicked when he learned about the news that his sister-in-law had been poisoned and died, and said that his eldest brother would think that he did it. I wanted to tell him that his sister-in-law was not dead and make him happy... …Who knew he would be even more angry.”

Shen Yuexi glanced at Su Mo's red and swollen cheeks, and the anger that had been suppressed suddenly came up again. Putting aside other things, Xiao Beiheng dared to hit his own wife, which was unbearable.

She broke away from Su Mo, rushed to the door in three steps and opened it.

The maid Xiaoxiang was standing at the door. When she saw her coming out, she quickly said: "Princess An, if you have anything to do, just ask your servant. Prince Ping has ordered that you are not allowed to leave this room."

Shen Yuexi looked over Xiaoxiang's shoulder, looked at the guard standing at the entrance of the courtyard, and said angrily: "Where is Prince Ping? Find him."

"Prince Ping has left." Xiaoxiang replied.

"Where was he in the middle of the night?"

"Where Prince Ping is going, we slaves don't dare to ask."

Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of the question, Shen Yuexi had no choice but to close the door, return and sit at the table.

Su Mo sat at the table and saw her coming back and said, "Beiheng wants to keep my sister-in-law and I won't let you go out."

"He said I was a distinguished guest and asked me to stay here for a few more days," Shen Yuexi crossed her arms angrily, "actually he just kept me here."

Su Mo also showed a sad face: "I learned that my sister-in-law was brought back, and I asked the guards. They said that Beiheng had told them to go to see anyone who wanted to let my sister-in-law go. I couldn't do anything. I could only come over and say a few words to my sister-in-law. By the way, sister-in-law, would you like to eat something?"

"If you don't eat, I'm full of anger." Shen Yuexi looked at Su Mo, "Actually, they can't lock me down, you..."

Su Mo was beaten, which reminded her of what happened to her sister Shen Lan. She wanted to take Su Mo away, but was worried that Su Mo might not listen to her.

After hesitating for a while, she decided to persuade Su Mo: "Brother and sister, I have a way to escape. Don't stay here anymore, leave with me."

Queen Wen had already had murderous intentions towards her and Xiao Zhuo, and Xiao Beiheng obviously had sinister intentions. Su Mo was really worried about Su Mo in such a dangerous environment.

Su Mo shook her head repeatedly: "There are so many soldiers guarding outside, how can my sister-in-law leave? You have a good rest first, and when Beiheng comes back, I will persuade him to let my sister-in-law leave."

Shen Yuexi put her hands on Su Mo's shoulders and said, "Look at your face. If he was really good to you, why would he hit you?"

Su Mo still shook her head: "Beiheng is just in a bad mood... He has never hit me before."

"As long as this kind of thing happens once, there will be a second or third time later," Shen Yuexi persuaded him earnestly, "You also said that he has a bad temper now, so why don't you just go to Shengjing with me to play. "

"I really can't leave," Su Mo avoided her eyes, "I am Beiheng's wife... Besides, if I leave, he will be even more angry."

The two were arguing, and there was a knock on the door. Xiaoxiang said outside the door: "Two princesses, Mr. Lin knew that Princess Ping was beaten, so he specially prepared ointment for treating bruises and ordered the slave to bring it to Princess Ping."

Shen Yuexi stood up, walked to the door, opened it, took a sandalwood box from Xiaoxiang's hand, and asked, "The ointment made by Lin Kui? What else did he say?"

Xiaoxiang nodded and said: "Mr. Lin gave the ointment to the slave and said that if you apply it on the red and swollen area, the swelling will subside in the morning, and then he left."

Su Mo said: "Thank you Mr. Lin for me."

Shen Yuexi returned to the house, opened the box, took out the cotton swabs and ointment inside, wetted a handkerchief, and wiped Su Mo's face first.

When the wet handkerchief touched Su Mo's cheek, Su Mo frowned, bit her lip, and hid to the side.

"I'll wipe you clean first, and then apply ointment," Shen Yuexi wiped Su Mo carefully, "He's really capable of hitting you so hard."

Su Mo forced a smile and said, "He hasn't slept for many days, so it's inevitable that he's a little out of line."

Shen Yuexi put down the wet handkerchief, picked up a cotton swab, dipped it in ointment, and applied it on the red and swollen part of Su Mo's cheek.

Su Mo looked at her without blinking, and suddenly asked: "Sister-in-law, why are you so nice to me?"

Shen Yuexi stopped the cotton swab and said, "You are my younger brother and sister."

"Beiheng was so cruel to Doctor Hua and his son, and put you under house arrest. Aren't you angry?" Su Mo put her hand on the back of Shen Yuexi's hand, "I am Beiheng's wife, why are you still so nice to me?"

"What you are like brother, it has nothing to do with you." Shen Yuexi lowered her head and dipped the cotton swab into the ointment. "Besides, you have helped me so many times, so just think of it as repaying your kindness."

"Sister-in-law, I'm worried that Beiheng will be harmful to you," Su Mo clasped her hands together tightly and lowered her head, "He is detaining you because he must be using you to blackmail brother. I don't know what I should do."

"I can leave if I want," Shen Yuexi tilted her head and took a cotton swab to apply, "It's you, I'm really worried about you."

Su Mo raised her eyes and said, "Why are you worried about me?"

"I'm worried that you will end up like my sister," Shen Yuexi put the cotton swab on the desk, "life is worse than death."

Su Mo's face changed, as if she had thought of something, and then she smiled and said: "Sister-in-law is right, Beiheng will not become that kind of person, he is not Xiao Kai. Xiao Kai is a person with bad character... …”

Shen Yuexi said: "What about Beiheng? Look at what he did to Hua Duoduo. Hua Duoduo just lied, does he deserve such a cruel punishment?"

Su Mo lowered her head and said nothing.

Shen Yuexi wanted to say that with a mother as vicious as Queen Wen, Xiao Beiheng would naturally be like that, but in the end she couldn't say it out loud.

If Su Mo hadn't witnessed Hua Duoduo being tortured and received a slap from Xiao Beiheng, she wouldn't have said anything bad about Xiao Beiheng. In front of his wife, she said his husband-in-law was not good, and her mother-in-law was not good. , others will just sneer at her and think she is a gossip.

Now that these facts are before our eyes, Su Mo still speaks good words for Xiao Beiheng and keeps explaining to Xiao Beiheng. It can be seen that in Su Mo's heart, she still deeply trusts Xiao Beiheng.

But Shen Yuexi knew that from the moment Queen Wen poisoned her, Xiao Zhuo and Xiao Beiheng were destined to no longer live in peace. The two brothers were bound to have a life-and-death confrontation, and all their previous efforts had been in vain.

In the coming war, the only person she wants to save is Su Mo. Su Mo should not become a victim of this battle.

The biggest difficulty right now is that she can't convince Su Mo.

Thinking of what happened to her sister Shen Lan, the Su Mo in front of her seemed to be covered in bruises.

No, she had to work hard to convince Su Mo. Su Mo said Xiao Kai had a bad character, but in fact, in her opinion, Xiao Beiheng was worse than Xiao Kai. Su Mo could never stay with Xiao Beiheng, a devil. She was determined to be this evil person. , I would rather beat them up than break them up.

The first step is to leave Su Mo behind.

Shen Yuexi smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, please stay with me to talk tonight. I'm not used to sleeping alone."

As long as Su Mo stayed, she could find a way to impress her with words. Su Mo had seen what happened to Shen Lan, and she had also seen Shen Lan's broken hand, so she used her sister Shen Lan's past to convince Su Mo. For half the night, I couldn't believe it or convinced Su Mo.

Seeing her smile, Su Mo also smiled and said: "Bei Heng is not here, so of course I have to talk to my sister-in-law."

The two got dressed and went to bed. Shen Yuexi thought of Queen Wen and couldn't help but worry about Mrs. Li and her daughter.
