Chapter 24: Avenge Your Mother
Shen Bingdie pointed to Xiao Xuan in the distance and said to Concubine Bai: "Mother, that boy is Xiao Xuan, the prince of Wei Hongguo, I can use him to make Nanyan Kingdom die, and let Nalan Xiongcai die without a place to be buried." β
"Amitabha." Bai Fei Niang clasped her hands together and gently closed her eyes.
Shen Bingdie left Meiyu Nunnery with Xiao Xuan and Qiu Mei.
Xiao Xuan raised his head and said to Shen Bingdie, "Sister, when you go to Meiyu Nunnery, what did that nun say to you?" β
Shen Bingdie's face was like a flower, she looked at Xiao Xuan and said, "That nun is my biological mother, because she saw through the red dust, she became a monk in Meiyu Nunnery, and mother and daughter met each other, what can you say?" It is nothing more than the words of lovesickness. β
Xiao Xuan said, "The nun inside is your mother? Isn't Shen Tao of the Frontier Marquis Mansion your father? β
Shen Bingdie said: "I am the adopted daughter of Shen Tao of the Fengjiang Marquis Mansion, Shen Tao has treated me like my own daughter since I was a child, and I will treat the Shen family as my biological parents." β
Xiao Xuan rode the donkey and nodded.
Shen Bingdie said: "Brother, you are the prince of Wei Hongguo, why did you come to our Nanyan Kingdom?" β
Xiao Xuan said: "My father is Emperor Wei Ling, I am the prince of Wei Hongguo, later, Wei Hongguo and your Southern Yan Kingdom alliance, attack Qingyang Kingdom, need a hostage, my mother is dead, the imperial concubine is afraid that I will inherit the throne, so I suggested that my father let me be a hostage, and I was sent to Nanyan Kingdom in this way." β
Shen Bingdie said: "It turns out that you were also framed by the imperial concubine and came to our Nanyan Kingdom, so pitiful." β
"Concubine Mink is so hateful." Xiao Xuan said:
"Who is Concubine Mink?" Shen Bingdie showed a beautiful head from the sedan chair, looked at Xiao Xuan and said:
Xiao Xuan said: "Concubine Mink is my father's favorite concubine, she was afraid that I would inherit my father's throne, so she framed me and let me go to your Nanyan Kingdom as a hostage, hoping that Nanyan Kingdom would kill me. β
Shen Bingdie said: "If I help you return to Wei Hongguo and become the emperor, will you still recognize me as a sister?" β
Xiao Xuan said excitedly: "Of course I know you, sister, even if I become the emperor of Wei Hongguo, I will deeply remember my sister and you, I want to marry my sister as the imperial concubine." β
Shen Bingdie's face showed a cold look.
"It's a deal." Shen Bingdie used her little finger to pull and hook Xiao Xuan.
Back at the Fengjiang Marquis' Mansion, Xiao Xuan whispered, "Sister Shen Bingdie, can I still return to Wei Hongguo?" β
Shen Bingdie nodded slightly, Xiao Xuan was overjoyed, and his little face turned red.
The Fengjiang Marquis's Mansion was silent, and Shen Bingdie got off the sedan chair and walked into the reception hall.
"Miss, you are back, the people inside are waiting for you, the master is in a hurry." Maiden Qin said:
Shen Bingdie said, "What happened? Who's coming? β
Qin Yuan's face was embarrassed and said, "It was General Nangong Ling who came to visit Master Shen, the Marquis of Fengjiang. β
As soon as she heard that it was Nangong Ling, Shen Bingdie suddenly showed a sweet smile on her face, she and Nangong Ling hadn't seen each other for half a year, and the two of them secretly agreed to put down the southeast rebellion, and when they returned victorious, they would get married.
Newly married teenage girls are the sweetest.
Shen Bingdie's light steps all the way dotted the path between the jungles.
I'm about to see my lover, why isn't she excited about Huaichun?
The pearl curtain was gently picked up by the maid, and Shen Bingdie walked in.
Shen Bingdie saw Shen Tao, the Marquis of Fengjiang, for the first time, and she was about to look around for Nangong Ling, only to hear Shen Tao say with an angry face: "General Nangong Ling and my baby daughter had a marriage contract first, and now they have a new love, even if they are the princess of His Majesty the Emperor of the Dynasty, and there is a holy purpose first, you are married by order, it seems that my baby daughter can only consider herself unlucky." β
At this time, Princess Zhenting stood up and said: "This is my father's marriage to General Nangong Ling, as a reward for General Nangong Ling's repeated exploits. β
Nangong Ling sat next to Princess Zhenting, holding Princess Zhenting's jade hand in her hand, a pair of young men and women were intimate, and Princess Zhenting was very charming in grooming.
Shen Bingdie suddenly appeared in front of everyone and said, "What's wrong?" β
Shen Tao saw Shen Bingdie come back, and there was a painful expression on his face.
Subsequently, Shen Bingdie saw Nangong Ling, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Nangong Ling holding the hand of a young girl, this girl has picturesque eyebrows and eyes, a beautiful figure, and a crown on her head, she is a noble and stunning beauty.
Shen Bingdie's heart suddenly felt cold, the lover in her heart was actually intimate with other women.
Nangong Ling stood up and said: "Shen Bingdie, let me introduce you, this beauty next to me is Princess Zhenting, the beloved daughter of His Majesty the Emperor today, I just came back from quelling the southeast rebellion, and His Majesty the Emperor gave me a marriage, so that I and Princess Zhenting could marry, and I was helpless." β
Princess Zhenting stepped forward and put her arms around Nangong Ling's neck with her snow-white arms, raised her head, looked at Nangong Ling with a delicate face, and said: "General Nangong Ling, I really love you, even if there is no holy decree, I want to marry you, I have been in love with you for a long time." β
"I love you with all my heart, too." Nangong Ling turned her head, looked at Shen Bingdie, and said, "So, Bingdie, I brought Princess Zhenting to seal the Marquis Mansion of Jiangjiang, just to let you fulfill the two of us, and I am here to regret the marriage." β
Shen Bingdie had tears in her eyes, and she tried not to let the tears fall.
Nangong Ling's father, Nangong La, said with a smile: "We men, which one is not three wives and four concubines?" As long as Miss Shen Bingdie is willing, if you and my son really love each other, Princess Zhenting will be my son's wife, and Miss Shen Bingdie will be my son's concubine, and I will also have three wives and four concubines. β
Shen Tao couldn't bear to stand up and said, "How can the daughter of Shen Tao, the marquis of my feudal territory, be someone else's concubine?" Even if Nangong Lingxian's nephew is highly meritorious, he can't insult my daughter like this, right? β
Princess Zhenting snuggled in Nangong Ling's arms, and Shen Bingdie was dizzy for a while, almost fainting to the ground.
The lover who had been waiting for half a year married another woman like this.
It seems that if Shen Bingdie doesn't express his stance today, Nangong Ling and they won't leave.
Nangong Ling is here to ruin the marriage, and Shen Bingdie needs to express her position.
At the same time, it made Shen Bingdie's heart break.
Princess Zhenting and Nangong Ling looked at Shen Bingdie together, and that kind of look made Shen Bingdie very uncomfortable.
Shen Bingdie calmed down and said, "I agree to cancel the marriage contract with Nangong Ling. β
Princess Zhenting suddenly burst out with a laugh and said, "It's still Miss Shen Bingdie's generosity." β
Princess Zhenting thought to herself: "If you dare to fight with me for a man, this is the end." β
Fengjiang Marquis Shen Tao said: "Since your marriage contract has been cancelled, daughter, bless them, so that they can gather and disperse." β
With a word of blessing, Nangong Ling and Princess Zhenting should leave.
Shen Tao really didn't want Nangong Ling and Princess Zhenting to stimulate Shen Bingdie here, he looked at Shen Bingdie's devastated appearance, and felt a little distressed.
"Why bless them?" Shen Bingdie turned her head to look at Nangong Ling and said, "I have nothing to do with them. β
Nangong Ling and Nangong La's faces stiffened for a while, and a cold expression appeared on their faces.
Nangong La said: "Since this is the case, our father and son will leave. β
This is the rhythm of grace and righteousness.
Shen Tao beckoned to Nangong La, and Nangong La's father and son walked out of the Fengjiang Marquis Mansion together.
Princess Zhenting was the last to walk out of the Fengjiang Mansion, she turned around and said to Shen Bingdie: "Three days later will be the day of my wedding with Nangong Ling, I wonder if Miss Shen Bingdie can attend our wedding?" β
"I'm ......" Shen Bingdie blushed and was speechless for a while.
"Shen Bingdie has a daughter's family, so it's inconvenient to show up." Shen Tao said: "The wedding of the princess and Nangong Ling, I will attend it instead of the little girl." β
Princess Zhenting chuckled lightly and staggered to lead a group of palace maids.
Shen Tao saw that Shen Bingdie still had tears on his face.
Shen Bingdie said: "Dad, I want to enter the palace and be the emperor's concubine." β
"What?" Shen Tao said with a surprised face: "Dad doesn't agree with you going!" β
Shen Bingdie was silent.
Shen Tao choked up and said: "Daughter, I can't spoil you like this anymore, at the beginning, when you were dating Nangong Ling, I didn't agree, our Shen family has been civil officials for generations, and we have never intermarried with military attachΓ©s, I know that you and Nangong Ling will not end well, it is your father who spoils you too much, and everything is up to you." This time, I firmly disagree with you going to the palace to be a concubine. β
Suddenly, a eunuch shouted at the door: "The emperor's holy decree has arrived, and Shen Tao, the marquis of Fengjiang, has received the decree." β
Shen Tao hurriedly wiped his eyes, and a few maids changed Shen Tao into new official clothes and went straight to the most luxurious hall of the Marquis of Fengjiang.
There were three chief eunuchs there, who were holding their hands behind their backs, looking at the spring in the garden, their faces were sinking like water, waiting for Shen Tao.
A eunuch holds a golden decree in his hand.
Shen Tao hurriedly set up the incense case and knelt on the ground.
The eunuch Manager Zhang's eyes were slitted, and he pointed at the orchid, and said: "Fengjiang Hou, congratulations, your daughter Shen Bingdie, His Majesty the Emperor likes it very much, and he is about to enter the palace as a concubine. β
When Shen Tao heard this, he immediately fell to the ground, and was helped up by the maids for a while.
The palace manager Zhang smiled and began to recite the holy decree aloud.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Shen Bingdie, the daughter of Shen Tao, the marquis of Xinjiang, is naturally beautiful, and she is deeply heartfelt, and she pardons Shen Bingdie, and immediately enters the palace to face the saint, and I will seal Shen Bingdie as a beautiful concubine. Nalan Xiongcai, Emperor of the Southern Yan Kingdom. β
Shen Tao fainted again.
It was not easy to be helped up by the maid.
Shen Bingdie entered the palace as a concubine, Shen Tao's wives were very happy, and the Shen family would soon be able to soar.
Only Shen Tao was silent, Shen Tao resolutely would not let his daughter Shen Bingdie enter the palace, the palace was not a place for people to live at all, full of bloody battles, he didn't want the 16-year-old Shen Bingdie to enter the palace, now the emperor has made a will, if Shen Bingdie is not allowed to enter the palace again, it is disrespectful to the will, and the Shen family will be destroyed, Shen Tao had to agree.
Manager Zhang said: "Fengjiang Hou, why don't you come to receive the holy decree soon?" β
Shen Tao trembled, took the holy decree, and knelt down a few times before enshrined the holy decree on the incense table.
Several ladies smiled and gave Mr. Zhang a reward. Mr. Zhang happily replied to the emperor.
