"You're crazy!" Empress Chen stared at her daughter in disbelief, never expecting to hear such a sentence from her daughter's mouth.

"Humph!"

Zhaohua held his head high, although he was unkempt and did not see the glory of the past, he was stubborn.

Empress Chen immediately felt a little frustrated.

"Die for this heart, you can't succeed." She said in a cold voice: "What's the use of you killing Zhu Xiuyan?" If you want to kill, kill Shen Yunlan! Because he dies a wife, he can continue to marry again! He will never marry you! Your revenge is not painful for him at all! “

"Then kill him until he can't marry." Princess Zhaohua is still in that tone.

And a hint of madness gradually welled up in the eyes of the stagnant water.

Queen Chen couldn't help but be a little scared when she saw it, Rao is a person who has experienced so much like this, and has already been tempered to the point of being invincible to all poisons, and she couldn't help but be moved when she saw her daughter like this, she couldn't help but ask herself, did she force Zhaohua too hard?

In fact, speaking of which, it's not that the little Shen commander can't be married, but it's a pity that he has already made a marriage......

No, it can't go on like this, stop, stop.

Empress Chen immediately drove this idea away, and reaffirmed in her heart, Zhaohua must not marry into the Shen family, in that case, she will become an outcast, and she will not be able to help her son at all.

She took one last look at her daughter, shook her head deeply, sighed, and turned away.

"Take good care of the princess, and you must not ask her to step out of here."

"Yes, Queen."

……

Rong Chen finally relied on his own legs, walked through the long street step by step, and walked back to the Second Prince's Mansion.

Shen Nianzhen waited for him in the mansion for a long time, so long that he watched the orange-red sunset in the sky fade little by little, and finally all turned gray colors, and the mountains and rivers in the distance, the attic, everything was dyed with the color of night......

But at that moment, she heard footsteps on the other side of the corridor.

It was very clear in the silence of the courtyard.

Shen Nianzhen immediately turned around, and saw Rong Chen walking from the other end of the steps, and the two of them instantly looked at each other.

Rong Chen was sweating all over his body, panting slightly, a faint smile on his lips, looking at Shen Nianzhen happily like a young man who had just fallen in love, his eyes were as bright as stars in the dark night.

Shen Nianzhen looked at him, with infinite joy in his heart, and suddenly raised his feet and strode over, opening his arms and hugging Rong Chen tightly.

Rong Chen froze suddenly.

He lowered his head in disbelief, and didn't dare to move: "Nianzhen? What happened to you? ”

"It's nothing, Your Highness, don't speak, just let me hold like this for a while." Shen Nianzhen nested in Rong Chen's arms and said angrily, after speaking, she closed her eyes tightly, immersed herself in the man's broad chest, and her nose was full of the faint incense that Rong Chen was accustomed to.

Rong Chen stopped talking, a smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out and gently stroked Shen Nianzhen's sideburns, the girl's hair was black and bright, like brocade, Rong Chen almost couldn't put it down.

After a long while, Shen Nianzhen slowly let go of her, and in the mist of the night, her cheeks were slightly red.

As a pampered Miss of the Grand Commander's Mansion, today's move is the boldest thing she has ever done. I don't know if Rong Chen will think that she is too Meng Lang? But at this moment, she wanted to hold him quietly.

"What's wrong? But what happened? Rong Chen asked at one time, and there was a faint worry in his voice.

He was really afraid that something would happen to Shen Nian.

"It's nothing, I just learned the truth by accident, and I wronged His Highness at that time." Shen Nianzhen was so ashamed that he could barely raise his head, rubbing his hands against the placket of his clothes, like a child who had done something wrong.

Rong Chen glanced at her, snorted and laughed: "It turns out that the way you apologize like this palace is to throw yourself into your arms!" ”

"Not really!" Shen Nianzhen raised his head violently when he heard this, and said a little angrily: "I hugged you because I wanted to hug!" It's not the same thing as apologizing! “

"Okay, good, two different things, it's this palace who misunderstood you."

Rong Chen coaxed her patiently, and felt more and more that Shen Nian was really like a child, and this feeling was really fresh and interesting.

"Alright, Your Highness, you go back and rest early, I should go back." Shen Nianzhen said.

Rong Chen was a little surprised when he heard this: "But it's dark......"

"My eldest brother is waiting at the door." Shen Nianzhen raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, suddenly stepped forward, stretched out his hand to button the placket on Rong Chen's chest, and said, "I'm leaving." ”

Rong Chen nodded and said, "This palace will send you out." ”

After speaking, he took Shen Nianzhen's hand and led her all the way out of the palace to the gate.

Along the way, the two people looked at each other and smiled from time to time, and their mood was more relaxed and happy than they had ever been.

Outside the gate of the palace, Shen Yunlan leaned against the carriage, watching the two of them come out, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sister, what do you say you are doing here?" Why don't you come and pay homage to the Second Prince's Mansion? So familiar and familiar, so as not to marry strangers in the future? ”

"Isn't it possible?"

Shen Nianzhen let go of Rong Chen's hand and walked over and grimaced at him.

Shen Yunlan waved his hands at Rong Chen: "Thank you for letting my sister go home, let's go first." ”

With that, he got into the carriage and said goodbye to Rong Chen.

Shen Nianzhen had already gotten into the carriage, she lifted the curtain and smiled at Rong Chen, and then put it down.

With a smile on his lips, Rong Chen watched their carriage go away, and then, as if he remembered something, he suddenly instructed Beiyang behind him: "You follow Dongchen, escort them all the way back to the Shen family safely, and then come back to the palace to return to the palace." ”

"Yes, lord."

The two of them were ordered, and immediately followed without hesitation.

……

In the night, there was a thick smell of blood, and I almost wanted to be disgusted.

There was a deathly silence on the long street.

Occasionally, a gust of wind blows, bringing a chill.

Inside the carriage, Shen Nianzhen almost didn't move, and it took a long time for her to whisper: "Big brother, are you there?" ”

Almost immediately, Shen Yunlan's reply sounded outside the carriage: "Big brother is here!" Don't be afraid! ”

Shen Nianzhen's heart was half lowered, and he finally mustered up the courage to open the carriage curtain at once, but the first thing he saw was a large area of dead corpses on the ground, and the blood stains almost stained the long street red, exuding a strong pungent smell.

She gasped.

At this time, I saw Shen Yunlan sitting in front of the carriage, with bandages wrapped around his arms, it seemed that he was also injured, but his spirit was not bad, seeing Shen Nianzhen's stunned appearance, he sighed slightly, and said with some regret: "I should remind you, don't read it." ”

"Who are these people?" Shen Nianzhen asked with a trembling voice.

"Assassins, dead soldiers, I don't know who sent them." Shen Yunlan said lightly: "They are all dead, and there is not a single living mouth left." ”

"How so? Who the hell is it? Want to kill us? Shen Nianzhen's face was full of confusion.

The first person who came out of her heart was Su Muwan, because Su Muwan's concubine was demoted and became a side concubine, it was because of her revelations that she had a reason to buy the dead to kill them.

But after thinking about it, Shen Nianzhen gave up this idea again.

How could Su Muwan be stupid enough to send a dead man to assassinate her at this time? She is busy consolidating her position in the Three Princes' Mansion is a serious matter! Where do you have time to get these!

Could it be that someone else is taking this opportunity......

Shen Nian really thought seriously, but he heard Shen Yunlan speak: "Don't think about it, no matter who arranged the assassination, they all failed, not only I was prepared tonight, but even His Royal Highness the Second Prince also sent people to follow all the way because he was worried about you, these people still underestimate us too much!" ”

His expression was full of irony.

Shen Nianzhen glanced at him when he heard this, and was a little surprised: "Second Highness also sent someone?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Dongchen and Beiyang, who were splashed with blood on their bodies, stepped forward with their swords and bowed their hands to say goodbye: "My subordinates see Miss Shen!" ”

When Shen Nianzhen saw them, a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips, she didn't expect that Rong Chen would be so careful.

In this way, it is a good opportunity for them to find out who is secretly causing trouble.

When the carriage continued to set off back to Shen's house, another thought suddenly popped up in Shen Nianzhen's mind: "Will the assassination tonight have anything to do with the eldest prince?" He is the person who can't see Rong Chen's legs get better......

But it shouldn't be, the person the eldest prince wants to deal with is Rong Chen, why do you want to attack their brothers and sisters......

Shen Nianzhen felt that his head was like paste.

If she didn't understand, she didn't want to.

It didn't take long for the Shen family to arrive.

Dongchen and Beiyang did not enter the mansion, and when they entered the gate, they left quietly.

In Chunhui Courtyard, Shen Nianzhen's brother and sister coincidentally concealed the dangerous situation they encountered tonight, and only chatted with Mrs. Shen about some recent small things at the dinner table, which made Mrs. Shen laugh.

As a result, Mrs. Shen took advantage of the excitement to announce in public: "Three days later, it will be the full moon banquet of the fifth child, this is the second child of your third uncle, I am going to make a big event, invite relatives and friends in Beijing to participate, let's have another lively time." ”

"Grandmother, you agreed?" Shen Nianzhen was surprised when he heard this.

When she went to plead before, Old Lady Shen made a straight face to her for the first time, why did she agree so happily this time?

"Agreed, how not."

Old Lady Shen glanced to the side a little embarrassed when she heard this, and said slowly: "Nian Zhen, grandmother talked to you a little two days ago, don't take it to heart." ”

"No, it won't! How could I go to my heart. Shen Nianzhen shook his head again and again when he heard this.

She just felt guilty for making Old Lady Shen angry.

"You're all good boys." Old Lady Shen sighed slightly, her eyes slowly crossed Shen Nianzhen's and Shen Yunlan's faces, and she said slowly: "The future of this family still depends on you, grandmother does not ask you to be rich and rich, but I ask you to live a peaceful life, and I will be satisfied." ”

"Mother, it will." Liao Fangru said with a smile on the side.

"Don't talk about them, you have to hurry up yourself!" When Mrs. Shen got this sentence, she immediately turned her head to look at Liao Fangru, and said with a smile: "Since you are married, it is your responsibility to have children......

Liao Fangru was embarrassed when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "Mother! I told the Grand Commander about it, and he said he didn't need it...... It is enough to have two children, Nianzhen and Yunlan. ”

"How can that work?"

Mrs. Shen immediately disagreed: "A family still needs to have many children and grandchildren, which is a blessing!" ”

Liao Fangru was extremely embarrassed when she heard this, she didn't even think about this question? Old Lady Shen's sudden question stumped her.

Shen Nianzhen played a round on the side and said, "Grandmother, how can you force a bride to marry less than a month ago?" It's not too late to wait at least another year and a half! ”

This made everyone in the room laugh.

Liao Fangru's face became more and more red with shame, and she almost buried her head in the rice bowl, and she couldn't help but secretly regret it in her heart, she really shouldn't have intervened just now.

Shen Nianzhen took the time to explain to her in a low voice: "Auntie, I'm sorry, grandmother is this kind of character, if you want to come out, if you want to come out, she may not really want you to get pregnant and give birth, don't take it to heart." ”

Liao Fangru nodded immediately, and when she heard this, she was really relieved.

The meal was spent in this joyous atmosphere, after which everyone sat at the old lady's side for a few more moments, and then they departed.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, the house began to get busy, busy preparing for the full moon banquet of the fifth lady.

Master Shen San personally flipped through the classics and named his second daughter Shen Nianyue, whose nickname was Yue'er, which was also catchy.

Shen Nianzhen took the time to go to the third room a few times, every time she went to see the fifth sister, and occasionally she could see Shen Nianzhu, but most of the time, she was in a silent daze, letting Shen Nianzhen talk to Ding, she just accompanied silently and did not speak.

Shen Nianzhu was silent, I don't know if she was because of Su Yunmu or because of something else, but the matter of the Shen family's third room choosing a husband for her was not affected by this, and it was still going on in an orderly manner.

Shen Nianzhen wanted to persuade her to open some, but with Ding present, she couldn't say anything, so she could only say some inconsequential jokes in an attempt to amuse Shen Nianzhu.

"That's right." Ding suddenly spoke: "Have you heard of the second miss recently?" ”

"Shen Nianci? What happened to her? Shen Nianzhen hadn't heard this name for a long time, and suddenly heard Ding's question, and was stunned for a moment, and remembered the past in a trance, only to feel that everything was like a dream.

Shen Nianci is already in the past, she can no longer pose any threat to Shen Nianci's life, and she is not willing to waste her energy on this kind of person, so she has not sent anyone to inquire about Shen Nianci for a long time. I don't know what Ding did when he suddenly mentioned her today.

"She was sold into a brothel by Lu Yiming." Ding said faintly: "Sold for fifty taels of silver." ”

"A brothel?" Shen Nian was really drinking tea, and the tea in his mouth squirted out at once.

What a surprise!

She really didn't expect that Shen Nianci and Lu Yiming would end up in such a situation, it seems that the combination of scumbags and is not so happy.

"Lu Yiming is a delicate son-in-law, and he can't endure hardship at all, not to mention that Mrs. Lu is still sick."

Ding Shi slowly spoke: "Although this Lu Yiming is not good, there is one thing, he also knows that he is filial to his mother, but he has no money." In desperation, he sold Shen Nianci, and the fifty taels of silver he sold, and took out forty taels to buy medicine for his mother, but unfortunately, he is now down, he has already praised him in the past, but he gave him fake medicine after receiving money, Mrs. Lu drank the medicine, not only did her condition not improve, but the whole person became more serious. ”

"And then?" Shen Nianzhen couldn't help but ask.

Lu Yiming went to the owner of the pharmacy to settle the account, but not only did he not get justice, but he was also beaten violently, and the last ten taels of silver in his arms were also snatched away, and now he is already exhausted."

When Shen Nianzhen heard this, he couldn't help but fall silent.

The ending of the scumbag and the is really unexpected, but if you think about it carefully, it is all reasonable.

"The third aunt said this today, is she trying to redeem the second sister from the brothel?" Shen Nianzhen turned his gaze and looked at Ding.

"I'm doing it for the good of your sisters, too." Ding sighed when he heard this, and said faintly: "Shen Nianci is too eye-catching in Shangjing, and there are many people who know her. ”

"The third aunt thinks about it reasonably." Shen Nianzhen smiled when he heard this: "It's not that you said it, I didn't even think about it, it's true that you can't let this matter continue to develop, what are you going to do, third aunt?" ”

Ding smiled slightly when he heard this.

It's a pleasure to talk to a smart person, because she can see at a glance what the point is.

"I think, it's better to send someone to redeem her, and then secretly send her out of Beijing, find a place in the courtyard to go to Beijing to marry her, so that she will never return to Shangjing in the future, as long as she is willing to live a life in peace, she will have no worries about food and clothing in this life, Nian Zhen, what do you think?"

"The third aunt is too kind."

Shen Nianzhen heard this: "At the beginning, the second sister bullied the fourth sister a lot, and dug a lot of pits for her. ”

"We are different from those people in the second room after all." Ding Shi smiled slightly when he heard this, and did not deny it, but slowly said: "They can do bad things without leaving any leeway, but people like us can't do such things, because once they do, it will be difficult to feel at ease." ”

"yes." Shen Nianzhen couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he heard this.

"Third aunt, don't worry, leave this matter to me, rest assured, it won't set off any waves."
