1. Shen Zhizhi
The mansion of Shen Shangshu in the capital
Shen Zhizhi looked at the young girl with a concerned face and an elegant temperament in front of her expressionlessly, Shen Wufang.
The Shen family is flawless, as the name suggests, clean and flawless, like a white lotus flower that is not stained by the mud, no matter the appearance and temperament, or the talent of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, they are the role models and idols of the nobles in the capital, and they are highly sought after and admired by the children of the family.
Immaculate? Perfect?
Shen Zhizhi sneered in her heart and raised her chin slightly.
"Is the big sister finished? When that's all said and done, it's time for me to go back! ”
Shen Wufang smiled, glanced at the obvious red marks on her forehead, sighed slightly, let go of the slender jade hand holding Shen Zhizhi Rouyi, and gently comforted: "Zhizhi, I know you were too angry to say anything, I'll go talk to my mother and see if there is room for reversal." ”
Shen Zhizhi glanced at the subordinates who were quietly looking at the two sisters not far away, and then looked at Shen Wufang, a confidant sister, and felt that she couldn't do it, she had forgotten the memories of her previous life, and she was played with by Shen Wufang for fifteen years.
Shen Wufang is only sixteen years old, but this method is very ruthless, destroying her second sister one after another.
But now her memories are back.
I won't be stupid anymore and be turned around by Shen Wufang.
"Thank you sister for your kindness, I think Major General Zhao Yuanhao is very good!"
Shen Zhizhi dropped this sentence and turned to leave, and the green-clothed maid beside her quietly glanced at the eldest lady and hurriedly followed.
Shen Wufang was accustomed to Shen Zhizhi's rudeness, sighed lightly, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The second sister is still so stubborn, according to the second sister's temperament, I am afraid that I really believe that Major General Zhao Yuanhao has been identified." ”
"The eldest lady is kind-hearted, and the second lady is too ignorant, even if General Zhao Shao has great achievements, but he has already sacrificed, no matter how greedy Sun Shizi is, it is better than marrying a dead man, right?" Shen Wufang's maid Caiyun pursed her lips and was indignant, glaring at Shen Zhizhi in the distance with hatred.
"Caiyun, shut up, Second Miss is what you can say!" Shen Wufang snorted lightly, his eyebrows full of displeasure.
Caiyun hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, but he was secretly satisfied with his appearance.
"This is only one time, not the next one!" Shen Wufang gave a warning.
"Slave understands!"
"It's good to know your mistakes, you go to the kitchen and ask Wang Ma to make some red date cakes that the second sister loves to eat and send them to the Agarwood Garden." Shen Wuxian saw her admit her mistake, so he gave a soft command with a pleasant face.
Caiyun took the order and left, while Shen Wufang took the rest of the maids back to his Tinglan Garden.
After Shen Wufang's group left, the subordinates who had overheard their ears not far away began to whisper, all of them were praising the eldest lady for loving her sister, and the second lady didn't know what to do, especially Shen Zhizhi's declaration that she would rather marry the dead than Sun Shizi spread rapidly among the subordinates.
But it was soon suppressed by Old Madam Shen with iron-blooded means, and it did not spread outside.
Shen Zhizhi didn't care about the people's discussion at all, she returned to the Agarwood Garden and took the Tsing Yi maid out of the finches, leaving only the nurse Yang in the room.
At this time, Shen Zhizhi's glamorous face lost the delicate color just now, and was replaced by calm and composed.
When the nurse Yang saw the obvious red marks on the second lady's forehead, she burst into tears in distress, and hurriedly brought a small medicine box over.
"Miss, you are really too reckless, how can you speak like that in front of so many subordinates, and your reputation will be ruined if it spreads!"
"Nurse, I'm fine, in fact, if I think about it carefully, I think it's not bad to marry a person who has just died and be a widow, General Weiyuan's mansion is old and young, I will marry the mistress of the mansion."
Shen Zhizhi appeased the Yang family, she really thought so in her heart, instead of being married to someone by her mother-in-law, it was better to be a widow for the dead, at least the population of General Weiyuan's mansion was simple, with only one old lady and a little bean ding.
There is no dirty and troublesome of big families, and there is no need for intrigue.
Who would have thought that she who had been respected and held in her previous life would also rush to marry the dead and be widowed.
It's unpredictable.
Shen Zhizhi smiled sarcastically in her heart.
"But ......"
Yang wanted to persuade the young lady to change her mind, but was interrupted by Shen Zhizhi.
"Nurse, if I don't say that, my innocence and reputation will be ruined, Sun Mingwei's sudden appearance at that time in the place where I must stay every day, and all the people are gone all at once, there must be something strange, I am afraid that it is a calculation against me."
"Instead of being calculated, it's better to find another way."
Sun Mingwei's identity is not simple, he is the only son-in-law of Jian Bohou, and the nephew of Sun Guifei today.
With her beautiful face that inherited her biological mother Aunt Zhang, and her well-developed bewitching figure, Shen Zhizhi didn't think that Sun Mingwei, a hungry ghost, would give up, and the only way to escape from the clutches was to marry the young general Zhao Yuanhao who had just died.
Shen Zhizhi's eyes narrowed slightly, fortunately the memories of her previous life came back, otherwise she wouldn't know how to face this series of designs against her.
First, thank you for the special case of the Apocalypse Dynasty.
As we all know, there is a strange law in the Apocalypse Dynasty, if a man over the age of sixteen who has made great contributions to the imperial court to defend the country and has made great contributions to the war without marrying a wife, his family can go to the official palace to request a marriage for him.
As for the women who are married to the underworld, it depends on the man's family background or military exploits, if the generals are behind the door or those with outstanding military merits, their family backgrounds are the daughters of officials above the third rank.
The woman who is married to the underworld will stay in the empty house for the rest of her life, and will not be allowed to remarry, and will be buried with her husband after her death.
This strange law has only been married twice since it was included in the Apocalypse Statute more than 200 years ago, and unfortunately both women who married were married died of depression before they lived past twenty-five.
Didn't Mrs. Zhao want to find a daughter-in-law for her grandson Zhao Yuanhao, who had just died without a body? Those with low status are not worthy, and those with high status will not marry a dead person even if they are concubines.
After her bold declaration came out, it would definitely attract the attention of Old Madam Zhao.
Second, thanks to Shen Wufang's quiet guidance in the past few years, the subordinates of the Shen Mansion privately knew that she, the second young lady who was born in the concubine but was raised under the name of her mother-in-law, was in love with Zhao Yuanhao, the young general.
What's even better is that a few days ago, when the news of Zhao Yuanhao's death reached the capital, everyone in the whole house knew that she had been locked in the house and mourning all day.
What she said today is that she would rather marry a dead man than marry Sun Mingwei's declaration that will not be doubted.
Of course, only Shen Zhizhi thinks that it is good to marry a dead man, but her nurse Yang would rather her marry Sun Shizi, at least this Sun Shizi is not a dead man.
"Miss, whether it is calculated or not, this is related to the happiness of your life, you must not regret it for a momentary mood, Sun Shizi is a living person no matter what he says, it is better than a dead man......" The nurse Yang put down the ointment in her hand, chattered about the benefits of marrying Sun Shizi, and persuaded the second miss to change her mind.
"Although Sun Shizi has already married a wife, with the official position of the master, the second lady can still be a side room."
"As long as the young lady marries and gives birth to a son, she will have something to rely on in the future."
"No matter how lustful Sun Shizi is, he is useless, having a son by his side is better than staying alive and widowed for a lifetime, no matter how bad it is, there is a big backer like Sun Guifei......"
"Stop, stop...... Nurse, you don't have to persuade me, I have made up my mind, and I will never be someone else's concubine like my mother. When Shen Zhizhi heard that the nurse meant this, and persuaded her to be Sun Mingwei's side room, she couldn't help frowning slightly, her headache was extremely high, and she hurriedly firmed up her position.
If she hadn't recovered the memory of living in a Chinese country for thirty years in her previous life, she might have been persuaded by the nurse.
It's a pity that there are no ifs.
As for escaping from the Shen Mansion and the Shen family, Shen Zhizhi never thought about it, reality is not a novel, and she doesn't have a so-called golden finger, some are just thirty years of experience in her previous life and superb medical skills, in this dynasty where imperial power is supreme, leaving the Shen family to shelter, who knows what will happen, as for the heroine of the novel who is a good official girl, she has to show up and work hard, Shen Zhizhi's answer is only two words: hehe.
It was a big gamble.
Whether it is Mrs. Zhao, who is a super-grade order, or Sun Guifei, who has the backing of a strong family, it is not something that she, a concubine who is a second-grade scholar, can control.
Now that she has chosen Mrs. Zhao, I just wonder if this old lady will choose her?
But Shen Zhizhi firmly believes that the opportunity is earned by himself.
