Chapter 40: The Princess Breaks In
The little guy turned the words back to Sheng Shangshu as they were, and Sheng Shangshu was a little dumbfounded.
He originally thought that His Royal Highness the Prince liked his daughter, and as long as his daughter said a few nice words in front of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness would definitely be able to dissipate his anger a little.
So today, he hid out and let Sheng Zi'an parry His Royal Highness the Prince alone.
It was estimated that the time was almost up, and he came back, thinking that he and the future of the prince's mansion were in-laws, and a few days ago, His Royal Highness the prince was also courteous to himself.
Today, I will set up a banquet and have a few drinks with His Royal Highness. If his posture is low enough, His Royal Highness will definitely give himself this face.
Now it seems that it was a miscalculation!
He first wondered, did Sheng Zi'an not say something good in front of His Royal Highness?
After thinking about it, he vetoed this year, he felt that he knew this daughter very well, he was timid and afraid, even if he was bullied, he didn't say a word, but he had admiration for his father, and now he was so good to her.
How could she not speak for herself?
Even if she doesn't, she has to think about it, how can she not have a reliable maiden family if she marries into the Shizi Mansion?
That is, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World didn't listen to it at all?
Or is her daughter clumsy and can't understand?
These thoughts bothered Sheng Shangshu, so that he couldn't sit still at all, and while His Royal Highness the Prince had not left, he hurried towards Sheng Zi'an's courtyard.
When Sheng Zi'an was sending His Royal Highness the Prince out of the door, Sheng Shangshu really appeared at the door, Sheng Zi'an and Xiao Jue looked at each other, and instantly changed their mood.
As soon as Sheng Shangshu entered the door, he saw the ugly expression on the face of His Royal Highness the Prince of the World. And his daughter, standing cautiously to the side, a little cowering, a little scared.
If you look at it like that, it will make His Royal Highness the Prince angry, and His Royal Highness the Prince will not look at her now!
Sheng Shangshu "sighed" in his heart, his useless daughter really said the wrong thing!
He hurriedly took a few steps forward and said respectfully: "The lower official is not on official business today, and he did not greet His Royal Highness the Prince in person, and I ask His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive his sins..."
His Royal Highness, who has always been very polite on weekdays, put on a shelf of the prince at this time: "Lord Shangshu is polite, Lord Shangshu's family style is really unusual, a few days ago, this son of the world was insightful, and Lord Shangshu's upbringing is really good." β
Sheng Shangshu Khan came down: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World.. This? β
"The day before yesterday, the Baiyun Temple Taoist is used to the emperor, this prince specially begged the emperor for the future princess, the day before yesterday the Taoist entered the palace, the matter of the Shangshu family, the emperor also heard about it, this world's face, it is really embarrassing!"
Xiao Jue's voice was cold, as if he was not lightly angry, and when Sheng Shangshu heard that the Taoist chief could enter the palace to see the emperor, he was even more panicked, and hurriedly distinguished:
"At this time, it was all done by the women in the family, and the lower officials really didn't know anything, it was the lower officials who couldn't manage it clearly, and asked His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive him!"
As he spoke, he also motioned to Sheng Zi'an with his eyes, and asked Sheng Zi'an to ask for him, but when he saw his taciturn daughter, his face was dazed and at a loss.
Sheng Shangshu was angry, and felt that his daughter was just a wood, uninformed and interesting, and useless at all!
But Xiao Jue noticed Sheng Shangshu's eyes, and thought, this old man is really unrepentant.
Continue to keep a straight face:
"Sheng Shangshu, is he counting on the woman in his family for everything? Zi'an is the fiancΓ©e of this son, this son of the world protects Zi'an, Zi'an has been wronged, Shangshu does not defend Zi'an, but wants Zi'an to say something wrong, and plead for the person who framed her. β
"Sheng Shangshu can't be fair in the house at home, this prince wants to tell the emperor, take a closer look, can Sheng Shangshu be fair in the court?"
Sheng Shangshu felt weak for a while, he didn't expect Sheng Zi'an to intercede not only for himself, but also for the stupid woman and Sheng Qing'an!
My daughter really can't pretend to be in her heart, and she doesn't have any heart at all! Sheng Shangshu thought so.
But he still had to turn his head and ask with concern towards Sheng Zi'an:
"Why is Zi'er doing these things? You have been wronged, and your father naturally wants to seek justice for you, you are kind-hearted, but you cannot live up to the teachings of His Royal Highness the Son of the World to you. β
"You don't have to worry about this matter, you just wait for the marriage peacefully, and your father will take care of the rest for you!"
Then he looked at His Royal Highness the Prince: "His Royal Highness, Xiaguan's daughter, has been kind-hearted since she was a child, even if she is bullied, she can't bear to see others punished, Xiaguan will seek justice for her daughter, and please rest assured that His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has absolutely no intention of relying on his daughter to win a future!" β
His Royal Highness the Prince of the World's face was a little better, but he still glanced at Sheng Shangshu coldly, and then said lightly:
"This son hopes that Shangshu will do what he says, let Zi'an marry peacefully, this son is happy with Zi'an, if Zi'an is bullied like this again, this son will not sit idly by."
"Yes, yes, the lower officials know...."Sheng Shangshu saw that he finally passed the test, where could he not agree, and sent His Royal Highness the Prince out with a thousand thanks.
After coming back, she really only greeted Sheng Zi'an, but she didn't dare to say anything about her intercession with His Royal Highness the Prince, for fear that her daughter, who was too soft-hearted and couldn't make things happen, would say something to His Royal Highness the Prince that shouldn't be said, so that His Royal Highness the Prince would be angry with himself.
I just beg to treat Sheng Zi'an like an ancestor at home, so that she can marry peacefully and steadily, and don't have any more moths!
Sheng Zi'an was very satisfied with such a result, and he was also happy to have a quiet ear, feeling that His Royal Highness the Prince of the World had used this trick really well, and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World also felt that he had done something for Sheng Zi'an.
The two were satisfied with each other, and inexplicably felt that the feelings in their hearts had deepened.
If someone gets a benefit, there will always be someone who will be unlucky, and this unlucky person is Mrs. Sheng.
A few days ago, Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Qing'an were locked up in the ancestral hall and suffered a crime, and then their daughter fell ill before they came out, Mrs. Sheng felt sorry for her daughter's body, but she was also relieved, as long as she returned to her own courtyard, she would be able to see Sheng Shangshu sooner or later, and she would be able to coax his heart back sooner or later!
But just a few days after this stopped, news suddenly came from outside, Sheng Shangshu asked for the family law, saying that he wanted to teach Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Qing'an a good lesson, and to set an example, he dared to openly murder the descendants of the Sheng family in front of his ancestors, which was really disrespectful!
Mrs. Sheng's eyes were dark when she heard the news, but Sheng Shangshu's order had already come down, and Sheng Qing'an was afraid to die, and her body was not yet well.
In the end, Mrs. Sheng was punished for her daughter, so that the two of them really sympathized with each other, lying on the hospital bed together, no one could take care of anyone, Sheng Qingan bit the sheets, hated his father for being so ruthless, and even ignored himself for the sake of that little slut.
And Mrs. Sheng was a little desperate in her heart, Sheng Shangshu ignored the friendship of so many years, and if she did this, she would have to make a good plan in the future.
Sheng Zi'an just stopped for a few days, except for Sheng Shangshu in the house, no one can be bigger than her, who knows, Sheng Shangshu went out on this day.
The porter ran in with two bloody cuts on his face.
"Miss Zi'an! Outside, there was a distinguished young lady dressed in a whip and barged in! The minions didn't let me, and they were injured a lot by their family! β
"Miss, what should I do!"
Sheng Zi'an reacted: "What person?" β
"I don't know if I'm a little one, but I know that I'm a young lady with a magnificent body." The little guy reached out and touched the wound on his cheek, and his heart palpitated.
Style?
Can there be female bandits at the feet of the Son of Heaven?
"Miss, what are we going to do?"
Before he could finish speaking, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside,
A woman's bright but angry voice came in: "Sheng Zi'an, when you see this princess, don't you kneel down obediently and salute?" β
Before you see him, you hear his voice first.
Sheng Zi'an frowned when he heard this, looking at it like this, it's not good!
She didn't panic, she didn't move, she just sat there quietly, and sure enough, the people outside didn't see Sheng Zi'an come out, and the door of Sheng Zi'an's house was opened by someone.
"You guys! How did you break into Miss's room casually? The helpless voice of the maid outside was immediately pushed away and thrown to the side.
Ah Qi and Aoyagi glanced at each other, and they all made defensive postures and looked at the door.
A girl dressed in luxury appeared from the door, her face was full of arrogance, and her expression seemed to be looking at ants on the ground.
"You're Sheng Zi'an?" Her eyes fell on Sheng Zi'an's face, looking back and forth.
"I'm Sheng Zi'an, I don't know if you are?" Sheng Zi'an did not panic at all.
"Bold! How dare you look at our princess like this, and you don't bow down! The woman didn't speak, and the little maid beside her opened her mouth first.
The woman reached out and lifted her head full of pearls, with a contemptuous smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Do you hear that? On your knees! "She has to salute Sheng Zi'an today, and she won't give up easily.
I thought that the person opposite would definitely kneel down in a panic and make amends to myself, but the hateful woman still put on a calm and breezy appearance.
"There is more than one princess in this dynasty, what if you really don't report your wealth, and then come in through the gate in a dignified manner?"
"If I'm so polite to the person who intrudes into the room, what do you say, then what's the difference between my boudoir and the shop outside?"
Sheng Zi'an's tone was light, neither humble nor arrogant.
Regardless of the identity of the other party, before he didn't know the other party's intentions, Sheng Zi'an decided not to move.
But who knew that the opposite side was a killing acute.
As soon as he heard Sheng Zi'an's words, he sneered, and felt that Sheng Zi'an had said something insightful.
Or the little maid with her nostrils facing the sky: "Our princess is named Guide, not only Miss Sheng has heard of it?" Or is it really so unheard? β
Sheng Zi'an frowned, of course she had heard the name of Princess Guide, who was the most favored princess of the emperor and the queen mother in the palace, and it was said that she had been flying and domineering since she was a child, and her personality was perverse.
But a few years ago, he had already gone to the fiefdom with his mother, why did he appear in the capital at this time?
