The next moment, there was a knock on the door outside, and the voice of the maidservant sounded outside the door: "Crown Princess, Your Highness is back and is already in the main hall." ”

Su Muwan immediately restrained her expression, and said in a calm voice: "This palace knows." ”

The sound outside the door faded.

Su Muwan got up from the bath unhurriedly, then dried her graceful body, slowly put on a thin skirt, and walked out with her wet hair.

"Crown princess, the slave will dry your hair." The handmaiden greeted her.

Su Muwan waved her hand and told her to step back, all the way through the corridor, screens, and beaded curtains, and saw Prince Rongbing sitting on the chaise longue with a haggard face, with a heavy expression.

"Your Highness, what's wrong? Is there anything else that can be hard for you? Su Muwan smiled lightly and walked forward.

Rong Bing heard her voice, raised his eyes and glanced at his wife, who was like a hibiscus out of the water, and his eyes suddenly overflowed with a smile: "Wan'er, you are here." ”

As soon as the words fell, his eyes fell on Su Muwan's snow-white neck, and his expression stiffened slightly.

There, a pink kiss mark, too conspicuous to see, unless he was blind.

"Wan'er, ...... you" The prince's expression was slightly stunned, and he looked at Su Muwan in disbelief and said, "You...... Are you hurt, or have you been rubbed by something? ”

Su Muwan saw his surprised gaze, and suddenly stretched out her hand to cover the kiss mark, and her heart instantly beat faster.

It's broken, it's going to be discovered!

However, she was not in a hurry, looked at the prince and smiled slightly, and said indifferently: "It's nothing, it was rubbed when I was taking a bath just now, and it will disappear soon, Your Highness, you just came back, are you hungry?" Thirsty or not? Wan'er personally cooked today and made your favorite rose cake, would you like to try it? ”

The prince's attention immediately fell on the pastry, his expression was a little surprised, and a little happy, he held her hand distressedly and said, "Why do you still cook it yourself?" If you want to eat, just ask those cooks to do it, why are you tired of yourself! “

"It is Wan'er's honor to personally prepare food for His Royal Highness, and I don't think it's hard." Su Muwan looked at him and said sweetly.

She had never spoken to the prince with such gentle words, and the prince's heart melted in this gentleness at once, and he couldn't help but reach out and pull Su Muwan and pull her into his arms.

"Wan'er, you're so good." The prince hugged her tightly, sniffing the faint fragrance of her body after bathing, and gradually his eyes became hot: "Wan'er, we have been waiting long enough, you are also the crown princess now, can we ......"

Maybe it was out of fear of what happened just now, or maybe it was because she knew that such a day would come sooner or later, although Su Muwan was a little reluctant in her heart, she didn't open her mouth to refuse, but nestled in the prince's arms with a shy face, refusing to look up.

That's the default.

She was willing.

"Wan'er, would you like to?" The prince's heart was beating faster and he looked at her in disbelief.

Su Muwan raised her head with a red face and glanced at him, then quickly lowered her head, gently slapped the prince's chest with her small fist, and said coquettishly: "Your Highness doesn't need to be so anxious, it's ...... in such broad daylight."

"Okay, okay, then the main palace will wait for the evening." The prince couldn't smile when he heard this, nodded again and again, looked at her and said with deep eyes: "Tonight is the night of candles in the cave room for the two of us." “

Su Muwan hummed inaudibly, but her head was buried in the prince's arms, and the prince didn't see her expression.

……

Shen Yunqi went to see Shen Nianci in person.

I don't know what he said, half an hour later, Shen Nianci went to see Shen Nianzhen with a dead face, and as soon as they met, he kowtowed to her three times, and then said with a stiff neck: "Thank you big sister for sparing my life, I am willing to choose to leave Shangjing, and I will never step into Shangjing again in this life." ”

Shen Nianzhen looked at her with a complicated expression when she heard this.

Shen Nianci was even more haggard than the previous meeting, and the light in his eyes was gone, like a walking corpse.

Perhaps, she still loves Lu Yiming, right? After Lu Yiming died, she no longer had any luxury.

But Shen Nianci doesn't want to die yet, she wants to live in this world, which is why she agreed to leave Shangjing.

In the end, cherish this life, Shen Nianzhen smiled faintly, then put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at her and said, "Have you really figured it out, or have you finally understood the current affairs?" “

"I know, I can't fight you." Shen Nianci bit her lip when she heard this, looked at her unwillingly, and said: "I can't fight in this life, instead of staying in Shangjing and suffering, it is better to go to a place without you to live a peaceful and stable life." “

She really figured it out.

She didn't want to die, so she had to leave Shangjing.

"Okay, tonight, someone will send you out of Shangjing." Shen Nianzhen looked at her and said slowly: "Early tomorrow morning, I will release the news to the outside world, saying that the fourth young lady of the Shen family has died of terminal illness, and from now on, there will be no Shen Nianci in this world." “

So ruthless!

This is to prevent her from repenting and cutting off all her retreats, right?

Shen Nianci looked at Shen Nianzhen in disbelief.

Shen Nianzhen was also looking at her.

He didn't look at her with a mocking gaze.

But Shen Nianci just knew that Shen Nianzhen had seen through her, felt through all the careful thoughts in her heart, and cut off all her retreats, and she had no choice now.

can only go down according to the arrangement that Shen Nianzhen gave her.

Either or die.

Shen Nianci didn't want to die.

"Big sister, is this the last time we'll see each other?" Shen Nianci suddenly sighed, looked at her and said, "Can I go and see the old lady?" Kowtow to the ancestors of the Shen family? This way you can go without worrying about some ......."

"Don't." Shen Nianzhen refused when he heard this: "Grandmother is not in the mood to see you, you go on the road and live your own good life, as long as you don't get into trouble from now on, then you will honor your grandmother." ”

"Sister, you will always be so sharp." Shen Nianci smiled bitterly when she heard this, raised her eyes to look at her and said faintly: "I don't know how His Royal Highness the Second Prince suffered your ......"

"You don't have to worry about it." Shen Nianzhen tugged at the corners of his mouth.

Then, he glanced at Dongchen, who was waiting on the side.

Dongchen immediately stepped forward: "Miss Shen Si, please." ”

Shen Nianci didn't say anything more, glanced in Shen Nianzhen's direction, nodded, turned around and walked out without looking back.

Shen Nianzhen silently watched her back disappear into the door, courtyard, and finally couldn't see it again.

I finally understood this matter.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

……

After Shen Yunqi came out of death row, he rested at home for two days, and then went to report to the military department non-stop, and it was Shen Yunlan who led him there.

Everything in the Shen family is on the right track, everything is thriving and prosperous.

And at this time, the New Year is finally approaching.

At the bottom of this year, there was finally a happy event in Shangjing, that is, the arrogant and domineering Princess Zhaohua was finally going to marry the son of the hussar commander's mansion.

Shen Nianzhen has been looking forward to this day, this woman who keeps targeting the Shen family is finally going to get married, and after she gets married, she shouldn't have the heart to harass her eldest brother Shen Yunlan anymore, right?

This idea was very beautiful, but the day before Princess Zhaohua's wedding, it came to an abrupt end.

Princess Zhaohua ran away from marriage.

The entire Imperial Palace, the entire Upper Kyoto, was about to be searched, and it was impossible to find out where she went.

There was already a lot of chaos in the palace, people turned over on their backs, and there was tension in Beijing, but everyone didn't know where the princess Zhaohua had gone.

When Shen Nianzhen heard the news, he was so angry that he couldn't even eat: "What is this woman doing?" Could it be that she still refuses to give up at this time? Or is she so reckless, willful and coquettish, and she doesn't even pay attention to the emperor's marriage? ”

Rong Chen looked at her angry appearance, reached out and grabbed a chopstick and handed it over, and then persuaded: "Don't be angry with this kind of person, if you are angry, you will fall into her trap, Zhaohua really doesn't like that young son Jiang very much, she made such a big fight not necessarily for your eldest brother, maybe it was for the sake of getting out of marriage." ”

"Divorce? Can this still be divorced? Shen Nianzhen said in surprise.

"She wants to die or live, and her father loves her so much, maybe she can really do it." Rong Chen shrugged and said.

Shen Nianzhen looked at him and couldn't help frowning: "You don't seem to be angry about this matter?" ”

"No, no." Rong Chen keenly felt her anger, and immediately smiled and said comfortingly: "This palace is not used to Zhaohua, she is so reckless and reckless, squandering the favor of her father, there will always be times when she suffers, her father can pamper her once, twice, it is impossible to pamper her every time, forgive her, right?" There will come a time when patience runs out, and when that time comes, we can beat the water dogs. ”

When he said the last sentence, his expression became rare serious.

Shen Nianzhen's heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean...... It's not time to go against Zhaohua? Is it just watching her go crazy? What if the Shen family is involved? ”

"Then go and cry in front of Your Majesty, show weakness." Rong Chen blinked his eyes, looked at her and smiled: "Your eldest brother can still do this, right?" ”

Shen Nian really understood what she meant.

After all, Princess Zhaohua is a princess of a country, she can act recklessly, she can treat rules and etiquette as air, and take what others say as air, but their Shen family is a courtier, so they need to be respectful and respectful, and they must not express their dissatisfaction with the princess in person, otherwise, it will be the emperor's turn to be dissatisfied with the Shen family.

"I hope Zhaohua won't make too much trouble this time." Shen Nianzhen sighed and said.

However, what to say, when it came to the evening, Shen Nianzhen got the news that Princess Zhaohua, who had escaped from marriage, appeared, she didn't go anywhere, so she went to Shen's house, knelt in front of the gate of Shen's house with a thud on the street, put a dagger against her neck, and cried to see Shen Yunlan.

"Where's my eldest brother? Where is he? Shen Nianzhen stood up immediately when he heard this, and said angrily: "I knew that things would be like this!" This Zhaohua is simply shameless! ”

"Beiyang, go and investigate, has Commander Xiao Shen come out of the palace?" Compared to Shen Nianzhen's anger, Rong Chen seemed much calmer.

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Beiyang turned and retreated.

"Nianzhen, don't worry about it yet." Rong Chen took her hand and comforted: "I have already asked someone to send a message to your eldest brother before, telling him not to say anything when he sees Princess Zhaohua, and he must not have a conflict with the princess, your eldest brother is not the kind of reckless person, he will not let things be irreparable." ”

"But no matter what, it's too big!"

Shen Nian was so anxious that he couldn't calm down at all: "The princess of a country! Just kneeling at the gate of the Shen family on the street, who can stand it? No one stopped him! My grandmother might have fainted by now! ”

Old Lady Shen was not stunned.

Hearing the report from the next person, saying that Princess Zhaohua knelt down outside the gate of the Shen family, her old man gasped and almost fainted without being shocked, but fortunately, Mama Zhou and Liao Fangru were by their side, one supporting and the other pinching, so they were stable.

"No, it's a princess after all, we can't just watch it like that!" Old Lady Shen calmed down, and even ordered everyone in the Shen family to go out, kneeling and begging the princess to leave.

"Old lady, this princess is obviously here for our Yunlan!" Liao Fangru said with a worried face: "If she refuses to get up, makes a fuss about seeing Yunlan, and forces Yunlan to withdraw from her marriage with the Zhu family, what can she do?" ”

The marriage between Shen Yunlan and Zhu Xiuyan has been set for almost a year, and both families agree with this marriage, if it weren't for Princess Zhaohua, the two young people would have been married a long time ago.

Look at what this is all about!

"Humph! Divorce is impossible! Old Lady Shen sneered when she heard this, in the end, she is a person who has experienced half a lifetime of ups and downs, once she calms down, Old Lady Shen becomes extremely sharp: "It is impossible for our family to withdraw from the marriage, and the marriage given to the princess by His Majesty cannot be withdrawn, so the princess will not be able to make any trouble, we don't have to do anything, just go out and kneel, everything will wait for Your Majesty to fall!" ”

Their Shen family is worthy of their hearts.

"It's okay......" Liao Fangru nodded when she heard this.

"Fangru, if you're pregnant, don't go out, go back to your room and lie down." Old Madam Shen spoke: "I'll take the whole family to kneel at the door." ”

"No, old lady!" Liao Fangru hurriedly shook her head when she heard this: "You are all kneeling, as a junior, how can I be embarrassed to lie down, I will also go to ......"

"No, you don't! You're pregnant! It is a big deal to add heirs to the Shen family as soon as possible! ”

Old Lady Shen said with a serious face when she heard this: "I will never let Princess Zhaohua's wanton behavior hurt you!" ”

"Old lady......" Liao Fangru was a little moved when she heard this, and at the same time a little uneasy.

After marrying in, she found out that Mrs. Shen has some patriarchy, although she likes Shen Nianzhen, the eldest granddaughter who has been raised by her side since she was a child, but she is not too good to other granddaughters, and she wholeheartedly hopes to add a few more great-grandchildren, now Liao Fangru is married in and pregnant, if she gives birth to a son, then Mrs. Shen will be very happy, she can be regarded as a firm foothold in the Shen family, but if she gives birth to a daughter......

So, what is the ending of the Shen family's third-room daughter-in-law, Ding, Liao Fangru also saw it.

"Fangru, go back and lie down......" Mrs. Shen didn't see the complicated emotions in Liao Fangru's eyes, but kept urging her to go back to rest quickly, Liao Fangru was thin-skinned and soft-natured, Mrs. Shen persuaded a few words, and she went back to the house obediently.

Old Mrs. Shen persuaded her away, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and then, after sorting out her mood, she put on a righteous and awe-inspiring expression, and took the Shen family up and down to the gate.

When I got there, I found that the street outside Shen's house had been surrounded by water, and there were people watching the excitement inside and out.

Princess Zhaohua was wearing a white skirt and knelt straight outside the gate of the Shen family, and there were many palace eunuchs around her in front of her to persuade her to get up, but she was unmoved.

It seems that the people in the palace have already gotten the news.

Old Lady Shen glanced at Princess Zhaohua with a complicated expression, then asked someone to open the door, led more than 100 people from the Shen family, knelt down without saying a word, and then said in unison: "Please return to the palace!" ”

Princess Zhaohua slowly raised her head, glanced at Old Lady Shen, and then looked into the gate, but did not see Shen Yunlan's figure, her eyes suddenly showed a trace of disappointment, and then raised her voice and said: "If I don't see Shen Yunlan today, I won't leave!" “

"Princess, why do you bother?" Old Lady Shen sighed, and then slowly spoke, "Yunlan is not in the mansion. ”

"I don't care if he's not there."

Princess Zhaohua said in a crisp voice: "Shen Yunlan always comes back, so I'll wait here for him to come back!" ”

While speaking, there was a sound of horses' hooves on the long street, and a large group of people and horses rushed towards this side at a gallop, and stopped when they arrived in front of the Shen family, and a large group of forbidden soldiers came down from the horseback, and a father-in-law in the lead, who was the great eunuch Zhang Gonggong beside the emperor.

"Princess! Please get up and go back with us! Aren't you ashamed? ”

Gonggong Zhang stepped forward and tried to reach out to pull Princess Zhaohua up.

"Don't come here!"

Princess Zhaohua took out a cold dagger with a brush, put it against her neck, looked at Gonggong Zhang and said word by word: "If you take another step forward, I will die for you!" ”

Father-in-law Zhang's footsteps were nailed to the ground all of a sudden, neither did he step forward nor did he retreat.

The expression on his face was extremely embarrassed, and he was extremely embarrassed: "Princess, why do you bother?" Commander Xiao Shen is already engaged, and you are also engaged! We're getting married tomorrow......"
