After rolling his eyes, Mrs. Xiao finally had time to pay attention to her son's condition. It would have been fine if she hadn't looked at him, but when she did, she felt heartbroken.

I saw my son staring blankly above his head. I had no idea what he was looking at. With his lifeless expression, he looked really pitiful.

Madam Xiao couldn't help crying, but this time she didn't cry out loud. Instead, she spoke with sobs while holding back her tears.

"Yusheng, how are you? Is the wound on your hand okay? The court doctor has bandaged it for you. It's okay. We just need to take good care of it from now on."

"Mother, is my position as the Crown Prince lost?"

Xiao Yusheng suddenly asked, his voice was flat but sounded very creepy and eerie.

Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but shiver, but her heartache still prevailed. She wiped her face and laughed dryly.

"Yusheng, don't listen to the nonsense of outsiders. Who else can be the Crown Prince if not you? You are the eldest son of the Cheng'en Marquisate. No one can take your position away from you, and I will not allow anyone to take this position away from you!"

Xiao Yusheng slowly turned his head, his lifeless eyes fixed on Madam Xiao's face.

"Mother, please stop lying to me. Tell me the truth. Is my position as the Crown Prince gone? Is it gone? Is it gone?"

Xiao Yusheng kept repeating it, becoming more and more agitated, and finally he even raised his bloody hands.

He originally wanted to grab Mrs. Xiao's clothes, but as soon as his hand moved, the pain made Xiao Yusheng sober up a little.

He clearly realized that not only had he lost his position as the crown prince, he was also a disabled man. He had been beaten with forty boards. Not only were his legs disabled, but his hands were also disabled. His position as the crown prince had been taken away from him. He was a poor wretch without any dignity!

Xiao Yusheng was so angry that he started laughing like a madman.

"Hahaha! I've lost my position as the crown prince, and now I'm a cripple. I, I'm worse than a beggar! Hahaha! At least a beggar has healthy hands and feet, but now I'm nothing. I'm just a stall, a cripple! I'm living worse than a dog!"

Xiao Yusheng was so excited that he started to flutter on the bed like a dying fish, cursing all the time.

But the person he is scolding is not others, but himself.

Mrs. Xiao listened to her son's self-deprecating words, tears of heartache fell down her face, and she hurried to stop him.

"Yusheng, don't be like this. You are not a useless person. You are my precious son. Don't worry, I will definitely find a doctor to cure you, and I will also give you the title of Crown Prince."

"You are the eldest son of the Cheng'en Marquisate. No one can take away what belongs to you. Mother will definitely protect it for you and will definitely take it back for you. Please don't do this. It hurts your mother to see you. Please don't do this..."

Mrs. Xiao kept persuading him, but Xiao Yusheng remained unmoved. He was immersed in his own miserable world, tossing and turning on the bed.

From time to time, he would pull the wound and take a deep breath, then continue struggling, as if the pain could prove that he was still alive and not a dead body.

After a while, the wounds on the two palms that had just been bandaged were torn open, and the blood dyed the white cloth wrapped on the palms red, which was very eye-catching. Coupled with Xiao Yusheng's ferocious expression, Xie Ruyu who followed in was frightened.

Xie Ruyu had already staggered to her feet, holding on to the hand of a maid, when Xiao Yusheng had just gone mad. Now she had retreated a few steps away. If nothing else, she had to save her child.

Frowning and staring at the person on the bed, Xie Ruyu had a hint of disdain in his eyes——

Is this still the high-spirited Xiao Yusheng in her mind?

Now, not only is he a useless person, but he is also an annoying useless person. Xiao Yusheng is quite self-aware.

Next to him was the crying voice of a maid.

"What can we do? I'm afraid the eldest master can't bear it anymore. If he does something stupid, how can the lady live? The eldest master is so pitiful, and the lady is so pitiful."

When Xie Ruyu heard what the maid next to her said, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Is Xiao Yusheng pitiful?

Mrs. Xiao is pitiful?

This maid really can't tell the difference between the big and small kings!

No matter how pitiful Xiao Yusheng was, he had lived a glorious life as a young master for more than 20 years. No matter how pitiful Madam Xiao was, she had been the mistress of the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion for many years and could get whatever she wanted.

On the contrary, this maid, who was born in a peasant village in some countryside, was sold by her own parents to the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion to be a slave.

How could a slave feel sorry for his master who lives in luxury?

How ridiculous!

But Xie Ruyu certainly couldn't say that in public, so she comforted the maid instead.

"Don't say that. Brother Yusheng must be fine. He just can't accept it for the time being. Grandma will protect him. Didn't Grandma say that she would take back the position of the Crown Prince and find a doctor to cure Brother Yusheng. We will not give up!"

The maid looked at Xie Ruyu with eyes full of admiration.

"Miss Ruyu is right. You are amazing. You didn't collapse at a time like this. With you here, the eldest master will definitely get better!"

Xie Ruyu had a mocking expression on his face, but he quickly restrained it.

She turned her head to look at Xiao Yusheng and shouted loudly in tears.

"Brother Yusheng! Don't be like this! You still have a lot of things to do, your great revenge has not been avenged, and you still have to support your mother-in-law."

"Also, our child hasn't been born yet, and you are already the father of the child. You can't give up easily. We all depend on you!"

Madam Xiao seemed to have suddenly grasped the point.

No one knows a son better than his mother. Mrs. Xiao knows her son best. She suddenly became furious and held Xiao Yusheng's face tightly with both hands, forcing her son to look at her.

Madam Xiao stood up, looked down at Xiao Yusheng and cursed.

"Calm down! Xie Ruyu is right, you are not a loser, you still have to protect me and your child, and you still have to take revenge! If you die like this, how can you protect your child and let him inherit the title? That thing was originally yours!"

"Also, Xiao Yu'an came just now. The bastard born by that bastard came over, saying he was here to deliver medicine, but in fact, he was just here to show off and make a fool of himself! Are you going to let him get away with it? Your father just pushed me because of Xiao Yu'an."

At this point, Mrs. Xiao became emotional.

"For so many years, he has never laid a hand on me. Now, for a bastard, he actually lays a hand on me. Are you willing to watch something that belongs to you being snatched away by a bastard? No! You better take good care of it and calm down!"

"You have to stay alive to protect the child and take back your title! You also have to avenge Xie Lingxi, that bitch. It was she who caused you to become what you are now! Before you get your revenge, you are not allowed to give up, and I won't allow it!"

Xiao Yusheng seemed to have finally grasped a life-saving straw, staring at his mother's face with wide eyes.
