Zhao Zun's face was cold, the anger in his body was suppressed, and he lifted his lips slightly, "If we send a girl in the future, we will deal with it the same way as today!"
"Yes!" All the guards trembled, and lowered their heads tightly, not daring to breathe, for fear of offending Zhao Zun.
Zhao Qi followed and said in a low voice, "Master, this person was sent by His Highness."
Zhao Zun snorted, "The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, if I knew this before, why bother, let him struggle."
"yes."
The night was silent, only the Shen family was dimly lit.
Mrs. Shen waited the whole afternoon before Lu Liyuan came back with someone. Looking from a distance, the guards came back empty-handed.
Before the betrothal gift was brought back, Mrs. Shen sat up immediately.
"Old Madam, Madam invited Madam Xiao to act as a mediator to facilitate this marriage."
Nanny Li hurriedly approached Mrs. Shen and whispered something in her ear. After hearing this, Mrs. Shen's face became even more serious, and she snorted coldly.
Old Mrs. Shen feared and hated the Right Prime Minister's House. When she was young, Old Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Xiao met. Mrs. Xiao was praised everywhere, and against Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Shen was not as good as Mrs. Xiao in everything. If the two were present at the same time, the one who was ignored must be Mrs. Shen.
No one dared to disobey Mrs. Xiao's words in Xiao's house, she kept her word, and the younger generation obeyed her words even more.
As time passed, Mrs. Shen's heart was extremely unbalanced, so she had a mind of comparison and imitated Mrs. Xiao everywhere. The more disobedient others were, the more twisted and entangled was Mrs. Shen's mentality, and she felt unsatisfactory everywhere.
As time goes by, Mrs. Xiao's eldest son is now the most powerful and powerful official, while Shen Liuyun is just a powerless and powerless Marquis, the two are even more incomparable.
But Lu Liyuan, as her daughter-in-law, actually went to ask Mrs. Xiao to be a matchmaker, and turned her elbows away. No wonder Mrs. Shen was angry!
Naturally, she didn't look favorably at Lu Liyuan, "Didn't you want to make up with me? The plaque on the gate says that it is Shen's residence. I'm afraid Mrs. Lu may have gone to the wrong place."
Lu Liyuan paused, and looked up at Shen Liuyun not far away.
Shen Liuyun hurriedly persuaded, "Mother, what are you doing? When we first came to the capital, we were about to make peace as soon as we were named Marquis. How do you make outsiders look at our Shen family?"
"I have done such a rebellious thing, and I am afraid that people will say that I can't do it?" Mrs. Shen glared at Shen Liuyun, and said mockingly, "Hmph! Your daughter-in-law has big ideas. My Shen family temple can't tolerate this big Buddha, as the saying goes It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, some people may look down on a small Xiaohou's mansion."
"Mother!" Shen Liuyun looked helpless, and turned to look at Lu Liyuan, "Yuan'er, since everything has been settled, everyone should take a step back and apologize to mother."
Lu Liyuan glanced at Shen Liuyun, his gaze was slightly cold, "Apologize? What's wrong with me?"
"Hey!" Shen Liuyun walked over, "Why are you so serious, brother Yi's affairs have been settled, do you still hold on to them? We have been in love for so many years..."
"Enough!" Lu Liyuan looked disappointed. Before he left, he still had hope for Shen Liuyun. After going to Zhao's house, this hope became smaller and smaller. Now the only flame was extinguished by Shen Liuyun himself.
"Brother Yi is also my son. Since ancient times, according to the order of parents and the words of the matchmaker, is there something wrong with being an elder in handling Brother Yi's marriage? Mother is also an elder after all, so you, a junior, can't be humble?"
Shen Liuyun's tone was a little displeased, and he secretly blamed Lu Liyuan for being too serious, and didn't think that the old lady was wrong, even if he was not satisfied with Ning Elegy, he could negotiate a decision.
Luckily, Lu Liyuan took someone directly to Zhao's family to propose marriage, but she didn't see the existence of Shen's family at all.
Lu Liyuan took a deep breath and smiled, "Whatever you say, I've made up my mind, it depends on your choice."
"It's just stubborn!" Shen Liuyun was furious at Lu Liyuan's indifferent appearance, heaved a heavy breath in his chest, and had a warning face.
Lu Liyuan didn't want to reconcile, but according to the current situation, the Shen family has restricted the development of the three children, and Madam Shen has no one but Ning Yuan and Ning Yange in her heart.
Lu Liyuan can turn a blind eye to trivial matters in daily life, but Mrs. Shen has no intention of backing down at all. Before Ning Yuan came back, she sent someone to prepare the best yard for him. Everything was ready, for fear of being wronged. Ningyuan.
Recalling the past, when both Shen Yi and Ning Yuan took the imperial examination, Ning Yuan was far inferior to Shen Yi, but there was only one place left to take the provincial examination.
Mrs. Shen asked Shen Yi to withdraw in the name of Shen Yi's filial piety for less than three years, and directly gave up the spot to Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan was exposed for cheating in the provincial examination and was kicked out of the examination room. Mrs. Shen tried to force Shen Yi to bear Ning Yuan's stigma, Shen Yi refused, and Mrs. Shen forced her to die.
Coupled with Shen Liuyun's many pressures, Shen Yi could only agree. Fortunately, the officials who came to the township examination were able to distinguish right from wrong and were rigorous in doing things, so they didn't give Shen's family a hand.
Shen Yi's ability will not be affected, otherwise, at least he will be banned from the exam for three years, and at most, he will be banned from entering the court as an official for life, leaving a lifetime of stigma.
Every time Lu Liyuan recalled this matter, she would feel more guilty towards Shen Yi in her heart. This was the biggest reason why Lu Liyuan refused to agree to Ning Elegy to be his regular wife, so that Shen Yi would never be happy for the rest of her life.
In fact, Lu Liyuan doesn't ask much, but when it comes to her son, she will never back down.
Lu Liyuan's eyes were flushed, and she was ruthless, and said lightly, "Since Lord Shen has made a decision, let's make peace."
"You!" Shen Liuyun pointed at Lu Liyuan angrily, "I think you are crazy."
"Liuyun!" Mrs. Shen stood up, with a cold smile on her face, "People already have the intention to leave, so why force them to stay, you can leave, but the three children must stay."
Mrs. Shen is not afraid of Lu Liyuan's threats, but she is just a woman, and she will marry again at worst.
"If my father reconciles, I will leave with my mother." Shen Mo said lightly, with a father who can't figure it out, and a grandmother who is involved in everything, she no longer has any illusions about this family.
"Like my elder brother, I walked with my mother." Shen Feng also had a determined face.
"You guys!" Mrs. Shen pointed at the two of them, "you are confused, what kind of development can we have with this woman after leaving the Shen family's blessing? Thinking about my own future, Grandma pretended she didn't hear those words just now, it's getting late, and everyone went back to rest, this is an adult's business, so don't meddle with it."
Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, "Mrs. Shen is out. This is the house that the emperor bestowed on father, and it has nothing to do with us. Mother doesn't care about it, and the three of us don't care about it!"
"Presumptuous!" Shen Liuyun reprimanded in a deep voice, "You just talked to your grandmother like this, and your usual upbringing is like a dog's stomach, Mo'er, don't be too presumptuous, quickly apologize to your grandma!"
"Enough!" Lu Liyuan stood in front of Shen Mo with cold eyes, and met Shen Liuyun's gaze, "Mo'er is so big, you have taught him for a day, what qualifications do you have to say about him, the three children are not young, how to decide No one else has the right to interfere!"
Impatientness flashed in Shen Liuyun's eyes, "I used to think you were gentle, virtuous, and sensible, but I was wrong!"
Lu Liyuan's heart turned cold when she heard the words, she felt sour and unbearable, and snorted, "Now that Lord Hou is famous, it's not too late, if I marry a beautiful lady in the future, how many children will I have?"
Shen Liuyun wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Mrs. Shen, "Liuyun, it will only become more and more chaotic if it gets involved like this. The three children were confused for a while and were bewitched by her. When they hit a wall in the future, they will naturally know to turn around and admit their mistakes. You can't be led by her coercion!"
When Shen Liuyun heard this, he looked at Lu Liyuan's cold face, who didn't know what was wrong at all, and immediately became angry.
"Come on, prepare your pen and ink!"
The corner of Lu Liyuan's mouth twitched into a hint of sarcasm, suppressing the tears in his eyes, and forced a smile, "Okay!"
Shen Liuyun couldn't bear it, but now he had to bite the bullet and continue, writing a few strokes hastily.
Mrs. Shen grabbed Shen Liuyun's arm, "She was unfilial first, disobeyed her elders in public, and arranged a marriage for Brother Yi privately, such a woman is not worthy of reconciliation, so write a divorce letter!"
"Mother?" Shen Liuyun was surprised, and was a little embarrassed for a while.
The woman and Li were supposed to shock the world and be criticized by others, but after all, there is still some room for it. If it were changed to a divorce letter, Lu Liyuan would really be unable to hold her head up, and would be scolded by people poking her back.
Holding the pen tip in Shen Liuyun's hand, he paused for a moment, a little hesitant. After all these years of relationship between husband and wife, Shen Liuyun was temporarily angry and didn't want to reconcile at all.
Mrs. Shen's family resolutely said, "Write!"
Lu Liyuan smiled sarcastically, there was no difference between Li and being divorced from her,
"You write first, and I will send someone to pack up."
"Yuan'er!" Shen Liuyun watched Lu Liyuan leave without looking back, her back determined.
Shen Mo glanced at the two of them, raised his foot and followed Lu Liyuan's pace. Before leaving, Shen Feng did not forget to stare at the two of them, and ran away angrily.
"You see, Lu Liyuan doesn't care at all. She thinks that she has nothing to worry about when she comes to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. It's fine if she doesn't put her mother in her eyes. Your husband is even more worthless."
Mrs. Shen continued to instigate Lu Liyuan to leave the Shen family. In the future, no one in the Shen family would dare to disobey her wishes, and then she would marry a famous daughter from the capital for Shen Liuyun.
The Shen family will not worry about rising in the future, Lu Liyuan is right, Shen Liuyun is middle-aged and still has a lot of time left, with his current status, why worry about not having children in the future
Mrs. Shen doesn't like the three children on the left and right, and they don't get close to each of them. They might as well be close to Brother Yuan who is considerate.
"Let's go, let's go, the ears will be clean."
In a rage, Shen Liuyun picked up a pen and wrote the letter of divorce, finished it very quickly, threw down the pen and left in a hurry.
Mrs. Shen dried up the ink, looked at the divorce letter in her hand with satisfaction, and seemed to finally let out the resentment that had been pent up for a long time in her heart, feeling extremely relieved.
"Nurse Li, send a few servant girls to help Mrs. Lu tidy up. Apart from her own dowry, she is not allowed to take away anything from the Shen residence, understand?"
Mrs. Shen handed the letter of divorce to Nanny Li, and Nanny Li nodded, "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely keep my eyes open and see clearly, and I will never let Madam Lu take away anything. The eldest lady is divorced, and this dowry should not be taken away, she is lucky to meet the old lady."
Mrs. Shen smiled, "Why do you have to do everything again, let's just muddle along."
Old Mrs. Shen felt at ease, the Lu family was ruined, and Lu Liyuan didn't have much dowry in her hands, so Mrs. Shen turned a blind eye and turned the matter into a big mess, and the Shen family's face was also tarnished.
The lights were brightly lit, and Lu Liyuan was clutching a paper of divorce in her hand, but finally couldn't hold back, a tear flowed from the corner of her eye.
"Miss Lu, the old lady ordered that, except for the things that Miss Lu brought into the Shen family, nothing else should be taken away."
Nanny Li had had enough of Lu Liyuan's anger, and this time she could finally feel proud, with her chin raised high and her posture arrogant.
"Mother." Shen Mo approached Lu Liyuan, "My son, second brother and third brother will always be with mother."
"Brother is right. Mother shouldn't wrong me. In the future, the three of us will definitely honor mother." Shen Feng clenched his fists, deeply remembering this moment today.
Lu Liyuan forced back tears and forced a smile, "Mo'er, Feng'er, as long as you live well, mother will be happy."
"Okay, okay, don't dawdle, it's already late at night, and it's not a problem to delay the company of so many people, Mrs. Lu, please hurry up."
Nanny Li curled her lips, her eyes full of gloating.
Shen Mo raised a silver needle in his hand and shot towards Nanny Li's acupoints very quickly, only to hear Nanny Li wailing and rolling on the ground.
"You deserve it!" Shen Feng kicked Nanny Li on the ground, "If you dare to say another word, I will tell you not to speak for the rest of your life!"
Nanny Li covered her lips in horror, not daring to speak again.
Lu Liyuan withdrew her expression lightly, turned her head and told the servant girl, "Everyone, watch carefully, don't take away any belongings from the Shen family, and move swiftly."
Lu Liyuan was worried again, where should I take my things so late, I don't even know a place in Kyoto for the first time, so it may take some time to get settled.
Just as she was worrying, she saw a maid rushing over, it was Qing Yu, holding a brocade box in her hand.
"Mrs. Lu, this is what my young lady asked my servant to hand over to you."
"Your lady?" Lu Liyuan was puzzled.
"It's Miss Xiangfu Ninth."
Hearing this, Lu Liyuan reached out to take the envelope, which contained a simple letter and a house deed, which instantly solved Lu Liyuan's urgent need.
Lu Liyuan was touched and said, "Go back and tell your lady, I accept this kindness, and I will thank her when I go back."
Qing Yu smiled, "Miss said, if Madam needs help, just ask, you're welcome, please leave."
Lu Liyuan nodded, and Qingyu left quickly.
"It's Xiaojiu?" Shen Mo's eyes were slightly loosened, and a softness flashed in them.
"Well, Xiao Jiu is a good boy, it must be that Yi'er is worried about us and has made preparations in advance."
Lu Liyuan's heart was filled with warmth, and she was very relieved.
Soon a few people were almost done cleaning up. Nanny Li was in so much pain that she checked against the list, met Shen Mo's cold eyes, her legs trembled unconsciously, and after a hasty check, she asked people to leave.
Lu Liyuan stepped out of the Shen Mansion, this strange place she was just familiar with, but she was leaving again in just a few days.
"Let's go!"
Lu Liyuan walked away without looking back, took a few large carts and went to the house prepared by Concubine Xiao.
The yard was coming in and out, not too big or too small, the inside was very clean, the maids waited quietly, the scenery was not clearly visible under the darkness of night, but when I got closer, a scent of books came over my face.
Lu Liyuan was very satisfied, and fell in love with it as soon as she entered the door.
"Your servants have seen Madam Lu." The servants in the yard saluted one after another.
Lu Liyuan waved his hand, "Get up, everyone."
"This is the house that Miss Jiu bought last year. There are many peonies planted behind it. This is the main courtyard."
A nanny led Lu Liyuan to the inside, and introduced in a low voice.
"Peony?" Lu Liyuan was slightly surprised.
Mammy nodded, "Yes, Miss Nine likes peonies very much, and they are planted all over the yard on weekdays, and the clothes and jewelry should have peony patterns. In the past, they would come here for a few days when the flowers bloomed. Some people in Kyoto called Miss Nine Where is the Peony Fairy?"
Lu Liyuan smiled, "So that's how it is. Peony is graceful and beautiful with Xiao Jiu, and it's not considered humiliating."
"Madam, this way please." Nanny led Lu Liyuan into the main courtyard, "The two young masters can live in the courtyard on the west side, it has been cleaned, if you have any needs, feel free to ask."
Seeing Mammy's kind expression, Lu Liyuan immediately got a little closer.
Shen Mo and Shen Feng nodded, and said to Lu Liyuan, "Mother, rest early, there will be time to clean up later."
Lu Liyuan waved his hand, "Go and rest too, we'll talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to do."
