Chapter 684: Shocked Questioning
For a while, everyone started talking.
"What? I didn't expect that the queen candidate in the emperor's heart would be Shen Liangchun. How is this possible? Could it be that they are secretly in the dark without us knowing?"
"You think the same thing as I think, this Miss Shen has always been raised in the boudoir and has never left her mansion, why does the emperor take a fancy to her?"
"Maybe it's because Miss Shen is more charming, otherwise how could she stand out among so many people?"
"I don't think this Shen Liangchun looks very good! I don't know why the emperor took a fancy to her? Is it because her father is Mrs. Shen? ”
Mrs. Shen felt very uncomfortable listening to their comments on her daughter. If it had been on weekdays, he would have rushed up to reason with those people.
He can tolerate others saying bad things about himself, but he can never tolerate others saying bad things about his own daughter, in his eyes, his daughter is the best girl in the whole world, worthy of everyone's praise.
What's more, his daughter is both talented, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her appearance is also one of the best in Beiyan, why do they say this about her?
But he is also very aware of the situation he finds himself in now, and no matter how serious he is in his heart, he can't show it.
After so many years of dominating officialdom, he knows very well in his heart that as long as he shows a little impatience or boredom, he will become a weapon for the other party to attack him.
And he also understands that now is not the time for him to dwell on these things, and what he needs to do more now is to maintain a good appearance of peace and etiquette.
Although he didn't say much on his face, everyone felt his silence and shut up one after another, they all knew very well in their hearts that Taifu Shen was someone they couldn't offend, whether it was before or now.
After being a Taifu for so many years, he also has prestige and status, and Taifu Shen knows very well what he should do now. I also understand that now is not the time to ask Shen Liangyun.
He quickly calmed down, adjusted his emotions, and looked as usual.
Everyone also knew very well what kind of person Mrs. Shen was, although Mrs. Shen did not show anything abnormal now, they knew very well in their hearts that Mrs. Shen's mood at the moment was definitely not so calm as it seemed.
But they didn't dare to judge anything easily, after all, Mrs. Shen's identity and status were here.
When they learned that Shen Liangchun was the queen, the other show girls were very disappointed, after all, everyone who came here to campaign had the purpose of becoming the queen.
But since there is really no queen anymore, then they also want to leave like this, after all, the people who can stay in the palace at least represent a glimmer of hope.
Now that the position of queen is gone, they can only barely pick a few, and now their goal is to be able to enter the harem.
Only in this way can it be said who will have the last laugh.
There are also some even less brilliant show girls who have directly become female officials or palace maids in the palace.
Even if they are unwilling, they can't do anything at the moment.
After the banquet, everyone stepped forward to congratulate Mrs. Shen.
"Mrs. Shen, I really congratulate you, I knew that your daughter was definitely not a mortal, and I felt very heavenly when I first met her." One of them said complimentarily.
Mrs. Shen was originally an important minister in the court, but now that his daughter has become the queen again, her identity and status have suddenly improved a lot.
Smart people know that now Mrs. Shen is the person they need to knots the most, whether it is for career or reputation, they should compliment him.
"Yes, yes, only someone like Brother Shen can cultivate such an excellent child, Brother Shen, I wonder if you can tell me your goddaughter's secret recipe." Another said.
Although he knew that all this man said was flattering to himself, Mrs. Shen still felt very happy, he liked to hear others praise his daughter, and he preferred to hear others praise him for his good teaching.
"Actually, it's nothing, I just paid more attention to teaching her words and deeds since she was a child, and she began to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting very early. Actually, it's not as good as you say, and your daughter is also very good. Mrs. Shen said.
"Then my daughter is not as good as your daughter, your daughter has been favored by the emperor, and now she is the queen of our country. You are now the emperor's father-in-law, and it can be said that you are above ten thousand people under one person. ”
When Mrs. Shen heard this, her face changed for a moment, but it quickly became normal. In fact, he didn't want to hear this now, after all, this matter was not expected by himself, and his daughter had not discussed it with him.
He said politely: "Then thank you for your congratulations." Okay, I still have to go back to the house to deal with some things, so I'll take my leave. ”
After speaking, he turned to Shen Liangchun, "Chun'er, go home with me." ”
"Yes, Daddy." Shen Liangyun obediently agreed, and left after saying goodbye to Qi Cheng'an.
After returning to Fuchu.
"What's going on? You have to tell Daddy all the truth. Did Qi Cheng'an force you?" Mrs. Shen said in shock.
Until now, he still couldn't believe the information he received, he had suppressed his shock before, and he didn't ask Shen Liangchun, he just wanted to wait until he returned home.
Shen Liangshen knew about this matter, Mrs. Shen would definitely ask herself, and she didn't intend to hide it more, not to mention that it was impossible to hide this matter from him.
"Here's how it happened, the emperor came to me after I finished playing the piano and said that I should be his queen, so that I could freely display my talents without being bullied by anyone." Shen Liangchun said lightly.
"Is it that simple? Is there no other reason? Why do you still agree to him when he says that? Mrs. Shen asked continuously, he always hoped that his daughter could marry someone he liked and the other party liked him.
"There's no other reason, in fact, he did it for my own good, not to mention that I was going to get married. Wouldn't it be better to marry him? Shen Liangyun said.
In fact, she also has a lot of grievances in her heart, but she doesn't want to say it now, not to mention that she has always liked Qi Cheng'an, and now he has made himself his queen, which can be regarded as fulfilling one of his wishes.
"If you don't want to marry, then don't marry. If he doesn't love you, then why would he marry you? Mrs. Shen said again.
Mrs. Shen didn't want her daughter to be hurt a little bit, not to mention that in his eyes, his daughter deserved the best in the world, so why did he have to let her marry someone he didn't love.
"Actually, I want to marry myself, and there's nothing wrong with marrying him." Shen Liangyun said that she knew very well what Mrs. Shen meant, but she didn't want to create a gap between him and the emperor.
