The whole August can be said to have passed in the chaos, Shen Xingwan was busy with the affairs of the fleet, and took the time to send Du Qifeng and Jiang Shiyi Lang away.

The vigorous and vigorous Jiangnan salt case, which was very involved, finally came to an end with the imperial history group sent by the emperor to return to Beijing.

Shen Xingwan dealt with things late at night last night, and he was tired. In the afternoon, I fell asleep directly on the desk.

Qinghong pushed the door in and whispered to her, "Miss, wake up." ”

Shen Xingwan opened his eyes a little confused, "What's wrong?" ”

"Mama Gong came to say goodbye to the old lady, and the old lady invited you over." Qinghong Road.

Shen Xingwan sobered up in an instant, and last time it was this palace grandmother who pushed her to the forefront with a word, and sure enough, there was no good stubble in the palace.

Shen Xingwan didn't dare to slack off, immediately dressed up, changed his clothes, and set off to the old lady's yard in good spirits.

When Shen Xing went late, the old lady was playing chess with Mama Gong.

Both of them were very focused, Shen Xingwan waved his hand to the maids, walked over and watched quietly.

The game seemed to be at a stalemate.

After a while, it was the old lady who spotted her first, "You're here." ”

Shen Xingwan hurriedly greeted the old lady, "Seeing that you were playing chess, I didn't bother." ”

The old lady didn't mean to blame, and stood up, "This game is in a predicament, you can do it for me, people can't do it when they are old." ”

The old lady gave up her position, saying that she had a back pain after sitting for a long time, and asked Yahuan to help her go out and walk around.

In an instant, Mama Gong and Shen Xing were left in the room.

Mama Gong is also the number one person around the Queen Mother, and those who can come this far in the palace have their own ways of doing things.

Mama Gong looked at Shen Xingwan and said politely, "Girl, please." ”

Shen Xingwan didn't refuse, and after sitting down, he said, "Excuse me." ”

"It's just a game of chess, and girls don't have to be too restrained." Mama Gong sat upright and said.

Shen Xingwan glanced at her with a smile, made a quick move, and quickly ended the chess, and the result was of course that she won.

Shen Xingwan took the tea handed by Bai He and took a sip indifferently.

Mama Gong looked at Shen Xingwan with a vague gaze, and said, "The girl's chess style is very dangerous. ”

"Really?" Shen Xingwan chuckled, "Actually, I don't know much about chess, I just play casually." ”

Mama Gong's eyes were slightly dark, "Sometimes it's not a good thing to be sharp, the most important thing for people is to be able to recognize their own position, if you go too quickly, it is easy to fall." ”

Mama Gong said these words in one go, as if an elder was teaching the younger generation.

Shen Xing laughed out loud at night, and looked at Mama Gong meaningfully with a pair of eyes.

Mama Gong's face remained unchanged, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Shen Xingwan supported her chin with her hand, with a smile on her face, and said in a delicate tone, "Mama is right, I also think that the most important thing in life is your own position in life, you know what not to do, what not to say, Mama I am right?" ”

The air froze for a moment, and Mama Gong's face darkened instantly, and after a while, she slowly spoke, "The girl is right, it is the old slave who has overstepped." ”

"I'll say it casually, Mama doesn't have to take it to heart." Shen Xingwan still looked careless.

But Mama Gong didn't dare to underestimate her, and she didn't make any moths, so she said goodbye to the old lady respectfully, accepted the old lady's reward, and quietly left the Shen Mansion.

got into the carriage, the little palace maid handed a cup of tea to the palace grandmother, and said cautiously, "Didn't the grandmother say that she was going to beat Miss Shen for the queen mother today?" ”

Mama Gong smiled bitterly, "It's because I've been held and forgotten my identity, and everyone gives me face because I'm the person next to the Queen Mother, representing the Queen Mother." But in essence, I am still a minion, and she is about to be the young lady of the Shen Mansion, the future princess. What qualifications do I have to point fingers at her in an instant..."

After Shen Xingwan's words came out, Mama Gong quickly understood what she meant.

is really a powerful character, and a casual sentence breaks through the essence and leaves her speechless to say.

"Mama..." the little palace maid looked at her at a loss.

Mama Gong returned to her dignified style, "It's not that I can't accept this bit yet, not to mention that I really have a problem with it." ”

"It's just that such a character, if he really becomes a princess in the future, I don't know if it's a curse or a blessing."

Mama Gong said in a low voice, and quickly threw it away again. She is essentially a slave, and what do these things have to do with her?

Her heart has drifted recently, and she has to calm down again, otherwise maybe one day she will take a wrong step in the palace and die.

The old lady leaned back in her chair, "You are not afraid of offending people. ”

"It makes no difference to those who are not offended." Shen Xing said late.

The main thing is to look at the attitude of the Queen Mother, if the Queen Mother has to toss her, then no one can change it.

The old lady smiled a little, "That's it, it's just a minion, you can go." ”

Watching Shen Xingwan walk away, Mama Zhang said while beating the old lady's legs, "The girl seems to be able to take on a big responsibility." ”

As the old lady's confidant, only she knows. In the eyes of the outside world and even the Shen family, the grandson of the old lady will definitely get more than the granddaughter.

The grandson is the inheritance and incense, and he will get all the network resources and support of the old lady.

The granddaughter is just raised by her side to relieve her boredom, and when the time comes, a dowry will be sent away, and the biggest advantage is that her own value is too high, so that she can marry a high-ranking family.

Actually, no, it's quite the opposite.

From the very beginning, the so-called grandson was the shield. The granddaughter is the real heir that the old lady chooses, taking over the most important thing in her hands.

It's just that such a truth must never be revealed.

In the eyes of outsiders, Shen Xingwan is irrelevant, and he is the second best compromise.

However, in fact, she is the "successor" that the old lady really wants. ”

Of course, the premise is that she can withstand the wind and rain and prove her ability.

The old lady said with a somewhat ethereal gaze, "The Shen family's family rules, the dark forces only pass on women and not men. ”

The Shen family, which has gone through three dynasties, has been inherited for hundreds of years. In the most dangerous times, several times it was the woman who saved the family from the storm. Once upon a time, the Shen family had a female general, a stunning and glamorous founding queen, and a female strategist who stirred up the world with no hands.

With the change of dynasty, these are buried in time.

But this family rule has never changed, and the dark force in the girl's hand is the last hole card and retreat of the Shen family.

The royal family's respect for her is not just because of the old crown prince. is even more because of these pasts, with the decline of the Shen family over the years, these pasts have rarely been mentioned.

But apparently the royal family still remembers.

"If the pearl is there, it is a good seedling." The old lady sighed.

It is precisely because no one in the lineage can resist this important task that the old lady chooses the scope of her granddaughter, so it is stipulated that as long as she is a member of the Shen clan, she can do it.
