Chapter 16: Going and Returning

Since the last time Mama Kong blocked Mrs. Shen back, Shen Shu has rarely been clean for some days.

In the end, Yuzhuo did not disappoint her. Jade confesses to her that she was indeed sent by her wife to spy on her. Because her deed of sale is in the hands of Madame. And she also needs money to support her mother.

She lost her father when she was a child, and her mother raised her and her brother alone. Because the family is poor, my brother is in his twenties and has not yet married a daughter-in-law. She couldn't bear to watch her mother sigh every day. made his own assertions, sold himself into slavery, and sold his money to let his mother ask for a daughter-in-law for his brother.

It was only after the sister-in-law entered the door that she knew that she was a fierce and ruthless master. Do not let the mother live with them. My brother is also cowardly, and he obediently listens to his sister-in-law.

Now her mother lives in a mud house and lives on her monthly money. If there is no disease and no disaster, that's it. But she is old, she has a high fever and a fever, and she never leaves her mouth every day, if she doesn't have the help of her wife, she can't afford it at all. But she can't watch her mother have no money to buy medicine and suffer for the rest of her life!

Yu Zhuo burst into tears, and Shen Shu couldn't help but feel compassion. I don't know what happened to my father and mother who were far away in the Western Chu Kingdom!

"You get up first!" Shen Shu said softly.

"You are also a good and filial girl. Rest assured, I will not treat your mother badly. In the future, your mother's medical expenses will be taken from me. Since your brother and sister-in-law have no conscience, then simply move your mother farther away, and I will find her another place to live. lest your brother and sister-in-law be greedy and cause more trouble. ”

Yu Zhuo was grateful, "Miss... Slaves and maids have nothing to repay, and in this life, slaves and maids will repay the young lady if they are cows and horses. ”

Shen Shu was very pleased, and called Yurun in again and asked her what difficulties there were at home.

Yurun's face showed sadness, "I was abducted by abductors since I was a child, and after I was raised, I was sold to this house, and I don't know where my home is, my relatives, and I am still alive." ”

Shen Shu and Yu Zhuo couldn't help but feel sour in their hearts. Shen Shu held Yurun's hand and said softly, "Since you followed me, I naturally won't treat you badly." I'll do my best to find your family. ”

Yurun was very moved, but still shook his head in frustration, "It's useless, more than ten years have passed, I'm afraid it's hard to see each other again in this life." ”

"Don't give up, if it's fate, we will definitely meet again. Perhaps, you have passed each other, but you have never recognized each other. ”

"Everyone in the world has something to be unhappy about! This is true of high-ranking officials and nobles, and the same is true of ordinary people. Everything is predestined, and providence makes people. Shen Shu sighed sincerely.

After Shen Shu bought both Yuzhuo and Yurun to her side, even Mama Kong noticed the difference. These two little girls treated Shen Shu closer. Everything is for her sake, and she is more thoughtful.

Mama Kong nodded secretly in her heart, these two young ladies still have some means. Coupled with her appearance, she must be able to go far in the palace. I just don't know if it's a blessing or a curse for her appearance to go to the palace.

And the Shen Mansion received another great piece of good news. The prince of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion is going to come to the Shen Mansion as a guest again, and the Seventh Prince will also come here to sit down.

This news made the entire Shen Mansion busy. The Shen Mansion's style is like welcoming the nobles of Tianhuang.

These seven princes, aren't they just Tianhuang nobles?

When Shen Shu heard the news, she was very puzzled. This Shen Mansion, is there still a secret she doesn't know?

It's just that the people from the Yongchang Marquis Mansion came to ask for marriage. That dignified Seventh Prince, will actually come here? What is the intention?

No matter how much she doubted, she still couldn't guess after all. It seems that we can only wait for the opportunity to observe when the time comes.

The Seventh Prince is coming, and the people of the Shen Mansion have to go to the door to greet them. Although Mrs. Shen didn't want to see her, she was also the second lady of the Shen Mansion.

So on that day, Shen Shu also went to greet the Seventh Prince early. Standing at the door of the Shen Mansion. At this time, it is autumn, the autumn is high and refreshing, and the breeze in the early morning is also cool.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Shen Shu became a little impatient. This so-called Seven Princes of the Tanglin Kingdom is really good at taking a shelf. Bigger than her shelf? Once, she only made people wait for a quarter of an hour.

Finally, after a small wind blowing for an hour and a half, the Seventh Prince and Gu Beicheng were finally late.

The people of the Shen family were busy greeting and receiving, but they squeezed Shen Shu aside. Shen Shu didn't care either, and casually followed behind.

She was still guessing whether the person who saved her in the first place would be the Seventh Prince. But now, it seems that it is not.

Until the time of the meal, Shen Shu did not get to see the face of the Seventh Prince again. After all, Master Shen and Mrs. Shen were warmly receiving them. And Shen Xian was circling around Gu Beicheng.

At the time of the meal, Shen Shu, the second young lady, was finally able to show her face on the table.

The seventh prince praised the eldest lady of the Shen family for being gentle and virtuous, and praised the second lady of the Shen family for being dignified and beautiful.

Master Shen was happy, and Shen Shu deliberately glanced at Shen Xian's expression after shyly smiling. Sure enough, Shen Xian looked jealous.

After all, the Seventh Prince of Fang Cai praised her for being beautiful, but he didn't say that Shen Xian was beautiful.

After the banquet was over, Shen Shu wanted to say that he was tired and left under the pretext. But the Seventh Prince said, "I heard that the garden of the Shen Mansion is very well repaired, I wonder if the second lady can accompany me for a walk?" ”

Shen Shu didn't expect that the Seventh Princes would actually point to her, and for a moment, she looked a little cramped, and then smiled, "It's a little woman's honor to be able to lead the way for the Seventh Prince, but the little girl is in the same place with the Seventh Prince, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" ”

"Please forgive me for the Seventh Prince!" After Shen Shu refused, he saluted again. to save the face of the Seven Princes.

"It doesn't matter." The Seventh Prince waved his hand.

"Just call Gu Shizi and the eldest lady in the house again."

Before Shen Shu could speak, Shen Xian hurriedly said, "Since the Seventh Prince has commanded, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

Shen Xian was about to whisper a few words to Gu Beicheng? The Seventh Prince's move just fulfilled her thoughts.

Seeing that the matter had come to this, Master Shen instructed, "Since this is the case, then Xian'er and Shu'er, let's accompany the Seventh Prince and the prince to take a walk around the garden!" ”

Old Master Shen has spoken, and Shen Shu can only respond.

After the four of them left, Master Shen lowered his head and thought about it.

Although Shen Shu entered the palace to participate in the draft, it was to enrich the harem. But the Seventh Prince can also choose a show girl to enter the house. If the Seventh Prince really has intentions, then it is not impossible.

Shen Xian followed Gu Beicheng and kept chattering. It's just Gu Beicheng, a slightly perfunctory look.

And the Seventh Prince walked in front and asked Shen Shu a few words from time to time, but Shen Shu just responded simply, not daring to say more than half a word.

Soon, the Seventh Prince and Shen Shu walked in front, and they distanced themselves from Gu Beicheng and Shen Xian behind.

The Seventh Prince suddenly stopped, and Shen Shu, who had been walking forward with his head down, bumped into the back of the Seventh Prince.

My back is so hard! is worthy of being a martial arts practitioner, and her nose is sore when she hits her. Holding back the tears in her eyes, she didn't dare to blame, but she didn't take the initiative to admit her mistake.

The Seventh Prince turned around and was a little concerned, "Are you okay?" But it hurts? ”

This voice as gentle as water, Shen Shu couldn't believe it. If it was a simple and young girl, I'm afraid she would have fallen into this tender water, right?

But she is not, she is Chu Shuyao, who is decisive.

"No, thank you for the Seventh Prince's concern, it's the little woman's fault, the little woman met the Seventh Prince, and asked the Seventh Prince's forgiveness."

Looking at her as a little white rabbit, Mu Lingchen suddenly laughed, "Second Miss, are you a little white rabbit or a crayfish with teeth and claws?" In Dengyun Tower that day, you were not so timid and afraid. ”

Shen Shu subconsciously raised her head, "How do you know?" ”

Then I thought of Gu Beicheng again, although she smeared ink on her face in Dengyun Tower that day, but Gu Beicheng had seen her appearance. Since Gu Beicheng knew, it was not surprising that the Seventh Prince knew.

"Hehe, that, that ......" Shen Shu laughed awkwardly twice, not knowing how to answer.

Mu Lingchen asked at this time, "You will definitely go to the draft in a month, right?" ”

"Yes." Shen Shu replied.

"I'll wait for you in the temple." Mu Lingchen suddenly said this sentence with affection.

Although Shen Shu was stunned for a moment, she couldn't hear what Mu Lingchen meant.

By the time she wanted to speak again, Mu Lingchen had already walked away.

No! Shen Shu shouted in her heart. The purpose of her coming to Tanglin was to find a way out for Western Chu. If you don't enter the palace, how can you find a way out?

Now that everything is ready, just waiting for the draft, why did these seven princes get in sideways?

After the Seventh Prince and Gu Beicheng left the mansion, Shen Shu was still depressed. If Mu Lingchen really wanted to intervene, how could she stop it?

I heard that Mu Lingchen is the most beloved younger brother of the current emperor Mu Lingxuan, if Mu Lingchen asks for it, Mu Lingxuan is likely to give it up.

While racking her brains to find a way, the princess of Western Chu has also married into the palace of Tanglin Kingdom safely.

The princess sent by Xi Chu is her half-sister, Chu Yuege. She is also the most outstanding and beautiful princess in the Western Chu Kingdom, except for her.

It is precisely because it is so good that it will be sent and kissed. It's a shame.

Shen Shu secretly sighed for Chu Yuege, although in the Western Chu Kingdom, the relationship between the two of them was not intimate. But in the end, it is blood and family, and now they are in the same Tanglin country, in a foreign country, and they are all fallen people at the end of the world!

However, while feeling sorry for Chu Yuege, she was also relieved in her heart. Since the Tanglin Kingdom has accepted the princess of Heqin, it means that the two countries will not fight again on the bright side, right?

The Western Chu Kingdom will also have a chance to breathe.

Thinking of the Western Chu Kingdom, she thought of Meng Yichen again, and she didn't know what happened to him.

After leaving the Western Chu Kingdom, she went to Southern Xinjiang for more than a month, and then went to Tanglin Kingdom for more than two months, but she rarely thought of Meng Yichen.

Even Chu Shuyao herself is strange, doesn't she like Meng Yichen?

Since you like it, you should not see it for a day, such as every three autumns! How could you not want to?

Is it because she is a princess that she has her pride?

Shen Shu couldn't figure it out herself.

It was the son who saved her that day, the face that made people look like a spring breeze, and appeared in her mind from time to time.

There is also the smell of incense that makes people unforgettable, lingering on the tip of the nose from time to time.

Shen Shu suddenly thought of the word girl Huaichun, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. How could she be like that? She is the princess of the Western Chu Kingdom.

Maybe it's that person, who looks so good-looking! She originally liked good-looking people, whether they were women or men.
