"My brother's favorite - the Shen family girl."
With the sound of "coaxing", there was an uproar in the hall, and all the eyes were turned towards the three young ladies of the Shen family. Of the three young ladies of the Shen family, Shen Qing had already made a marriage appointment, so there were only Shen Yue and Shen Miao left. Shen Yue was gentle and charming, and her talent spread far and wide. Now Shen Miao is also a slender young girl, and her arrogance also made people look at her, and more importantly, behind Shen Miao there was the big Buddha Shen Xin. And everyone could see clearly that the person Prince Yu was watching was Shen Miao.
For a time, everyone looked at Shen Miao with extremely strange eyes, some were gloating at the misfortune, and some were sympathetic. The death of the last Prince Yu was not clear, and everyone knew that there must be something strange. And what kind of devilish temper this Prince Yu is, everyone is well aware of it. It happens that such a person is deeply protected by the royal family. On the one hand, he is a mighty general, and on the other hand, he is a younger brother who has saved the emperor's life. How should he choose
Shen Xin's expression sank after Prince Yu said these words, and even blue veins appeared on his forehead. The reputation of the mighty general has never been in vain, but for a while there was a kind of vicious anger, which made the faces of the people around him change.
The minister is a loyal minister, but if he can't even protect his own daughter, he will fight for his life and merit, and Shen Xin is not afraid to confront Prince Yu.
Shen Qiu also tightened the corners of his mouth, staring at Prince Yu fiercely, as if as long as Prince Yu said Shen Xin's name, he would jump out and fight Prince Yu to the death.
As for Luo Xueyan, she had already held Shen Miao's hand tightly, her cheerful smile had long since faded, replaced by a deep ruthless look, like a she-wolf protecting her cubs, not giving in to the opponent's coercion in the slightest.
The Shen family behaved like this, and the people around them couldn't help but whisper in their hearts when they saw it. Now that Emperor Wenhui is on the high seat, the Shen family makes such a gesture, and there is a feeling of tension in the air. Emperor Wenhui is suspicious, and the Shen family is not afraid of being above the emperor's prestige, so they are not afraid of leaving Emperor Wenhui's heart in the future. A pimple
Prince Ding also moved his eyes slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes when he looked at Shen Miao.
"It seems that Fifth Young Lady Shen is really the treasure of General Shen." Su Mingfeng whispered to Xie Jingxing, "The Shen family can actually do this for her."
To face Prince Shangyu is to be an enemy of the royal family. No matter what, the actions of the Shen family at this moment have clearly expressed their unyielding attitude. I'm afraid that even if Emperor Wen Hui ordered it, the Shen family would never agree to it easily.
Xie Jing Xing smiled lazily and was noncommittal.
In the corner, Pei Lang's hand holding the tea cup tightened slightly, what would she do to the girl who could shoot arrows at her classmates without blinking on the test field
Emperor Wen Hui's smile was a little unpredictable, and his gaze towards the Shen family was also faintly dark. He said, "Which girl from the Shen family is the one that Wang brother is looking for?"
Everyone was waiting for Prince Yu's answer. A cheerful smile appeared on Shen Qing's face. However, before the smile rose even higher, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and he couldn't help but let out an "ah". Screaming miserably, he fell to the ground clutching his stomach.
"what happened?"
"Qing'er!"
Shen Qing's sudden action was startling, Ren Wan Yun immediately put her in his arms, Shen Qing's complexion quickly turned pale, Shen Yue pulled Chen Rou Qiu's clothes corner, the latter jumped in her heart, for some reason, she went straight to Shen Qing Wonderful look.
But seeing the girl in purple sitting at the table, her expression did not waver, she met Chen Rouqiu's gaze, smiled slightly, turned her head to look at Luo Xueyan, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with Big Sister? Could it be that she is poisoned? "
"Poisoned!" As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly became chaotic.
Shen Miao continued to look at Luo Xueyan and said, "Could it be that some assassins got in?"
This time, not only the female family members, but even the male family members, several princes and Emperor Wen Hui changed their faces. Back to the imperial banquet, all civil and military officials were present, and if an assassin was involved, the royal family would be in danger. Immediately, all the guards guarding outside rushed in, with their hands on the saber at their waists, and they watched the surrounding movements eagerly.
One was the assassin who might sneak in, and the other was Shen Qing who fell to the ground groaning in pain. In this way, no one cared about which girl from the Shen family Prince Yu had just said to marry. After all, life is more important than these rumors.
Su Mingfeng opened his mouth and whispered in admiration after a long while: "Good trick."
With just one sentence, Shen Miao shifted everyone's attention. The current chaos and tension made Prince Yu look like a fool.
Xie Jing Xing glanced at the “worried” girl and snorted softly.
Shen Miao's eyes moved slightly, she has been with the Fu family for so many years, no one understands the suspiciousness of the Fu family better than her. Shen Qing's appearance, and a little mention of this moment, was enough to turn him into a frightened bird for Emperor Wen Hui, who had been assassinated countless times.
“Mother, let’s find an imperial doctor for the eldest sister.” Shen Miao said, “It is impossible to go on like this.”
Only then did Luo Xueyan return to her senses, seeing Ren Wanyun frowning, Shen Qing hurt like that, but as a mother, Ren Wanyun never thought of finding a doctor for her daughter, and she didn't know how she was a mother. Immediately, Luo Xueyan saluted at Emperor Wen Hui and said, "The minister's wife urges His Majesty the Imperial Physician Xuan to take care of Qing'er and resolve his crisis."
As soon as these words came out, before Shen Qing could speak, Ren Wanyun screamed, "No!"
Everyone's eyes fell on Ren Wanyun.
When Ren Wanyun said the words, she felt bad, facing so many inquiring eyes, she forced a smile and gritted her teeth: "The minister's wife... the minister's wife is saying how Qing'er is a good laborer... Don't spoil everyone's interest. , the court lady will take Qing'er down and you'll have to..."
"What are you talking about?" Luo Xueyan said sternly, "Nothing is as important as life, do you, a mother, think that Qing'er's life is no more interesting than the banquet hall."
The expressions of everyone were very strange, and now they looked like this, but seeing that Ren Wanyun, who was her biological mother, was unwilling to seek an imperial physician, while Luo Xueyan, her aunt, was enthusiastically concerned about Shen Qing's life and death.
At the men's banquet, Shen Gui stared at Ren Wanyun with a sullen face, wishing that the mother and daughter who were in the way had nothing to do with him. If this made Emperor Wen Hui unhappy, what would happen to his future career?
"Mrs. Shen is right," the Empress said lightly, and she glanced at Ren Wanyun, "Miss Shen's injury is the most important thing, and the return to the court banquet is not as important as her life."
Ren Wanyun panicked, if Shen Qing was seen by the doctor, wouldn't the matter of the fetus in the womb be exposed to others. She said, "Niangniang, still..."
"I'm fine..." Shen Qing's forehead seeped big drops of tax, his face was as pale as paper, and it was obviously painful. Covering her stomach, she couldn't speak, but she also knew that the imperial doctor could not come over, so she suppressed the pain.
"Big sister, this is not only related to your safety, but also to the safety of everyone in the hall at this moment. If you are really poisoned, it means that assassins have sneaked in and everyone is in danger. You just don't do it. You think about it yourself, should you think about it for Your Majesty?" Shen Miao's calm voice sounded.
After she said this, Emperor Wen Hui's eyes became a little dignified.
Shen Qing almost vomited blood from Shen Miao's words, and a sentence was related to the emperor, what can Shen Qing say, does he dare not think about the emperor
Several princes of the Fu family also heard what Shen Miao meant and left the king for a while, then said, "This young lady of the Shen family has a good mouth!"
"Come here," Emperor Wenhui said without any hesitation, "Go and ask the imperial physician. If something happened to Miss Shen in the palace, I naturally want to check it out!"
“Eldest sister should not be disturbed,” Shen Miao said lightly, “Maybe the murderer is in the crowd at this moment, and after the imperial doctor came, he would take the pulse of the elder sister here, otherwise he would have qi and blood. There will be problems."
Before Ren Wanyun could speak, Emperor Wen Hui nodded and said, "Not bad."
In a word, all possibilities are directly blocked.
In the public, let the imperial doctor see Shen Qing, which means that Shen Qing's pregnancy will be exposed in front of all civil and military officials. Thinking of this, Ren Wanyun's body can't stop shaking, and she is afraid , and finally spread to Shen Qing.
As Shen Qing endured the severe pain, more panic surged in his heart: "Mother, don't..."
But what about Ren Wanyun? Emperor Wen Hui had already spoken, and she couldn't resist the decree. She is only a woman, and she can naturally act arrogant in the back house, but in front of the empress and officials, Ren Wanyun is at a loss. She raised her head and looked in Shen Gui's direction, hoping that Shen Gui could help her, but the look in Shen Gui's eyes was full of blame and anger.
For a time, Ren Wanyun's hands and feet were cold, and deep despair welled up in her heart. Even Shen Qing, who was in his arms, couldn't care about comforting him, he just collapsed to the ground in a trance.
“What happened to your aunt?” Feng An Ning bit her ears with Shen Miao, “Why does she look like she is very scared?”
Shen Miao smiled and Luo Xue Yan also frowned, Ren Wan Yun was so abnormal that she felt a little weird. But he couldn't think of the reason, instead he looked at Chen Rouqiu and Shen Yue who were on the side.
Shen Yue was frightened by Shen Qing's appearance, she was a little flustered as she grasped Chen Rouqiu's clothes, Chen Rouqiu also stared at Ren Wanyun, and she had been a concubine with Ren Wanyun for so many years, Chen Rouqiu naturally knew that her second sister-in-law had never been able to cope with each other with ease. This kind of scene, today's gaffe, can only be one reason, that is, she said it herself.
Shen Yue whispered: "Could it be that the eldest sister was really poisoned, mother, is it the fifth sister..."
"Yue'er!" Chen Rouqiu stopped her sternly and couldn't help but glance at Shen Miao on the side, there were a few people across and could not see Shen Miao's gaze, but seeing that the corners of her mouth seemed to rise slightly, Chen Rouqiu couldn't help it. startled. She intuition that today's affairs must have something to do with Shen Miao, but is Shen Miao really bold enough to poison the palace? But no matter what, Shen Qing's reputation today could not be preserved.
Prince Yu was also sullen due to the sudden change. Although he acted absurdly, he still had a clear sense of priorities. This was definitely not a good time to bring up the matter just now. There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, Shen Miao escaped today, whether it was Shen Miao who poisoned Shen Qing, to be able to hold him down like this, Shen Miao thought was too simple? Afterwards, he could still mention the matter with Emperor Wen Hui. There are some things that can't be avoided.
The imperial physician came quickly and hurriedly. Surprisingly, the imperial physicians in the palace were all elderly people, and they were only able to enter the imperial hospital because of their rich experience. The imperial physicians here were only in their early twenties, and their birth Very handsome, but it made some official ladies look straight.
The moment Shen Miao saw this imperial doctor, she felt a "squeak" in her heart and she carefully looked at the imperial doctor. The young imperial physician carried the medical case, and after bowing with the empress, went to Ren Wanyun's side. Ren Wanyun still wanted to file, only to hear the imperial physician say, "Please let go of Miss Shen, Madam, and take a pulse for Miss Shen." His voice It is also very pleasant to the ear, and it sounds very comfortable in the heart.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, there was the empress's sharp eyes above, and Ren Wanyun would not dare to compete with her no matter what. Shen Qing had already fainted in pain, she took a step back and watched the imperial doctor's two fingers touch Shen Qing's wrist.
While Shen Miao was looking at the imperial doctor in a trance, Feng An Ning's playful voice suddenly came from beside her, she said, "You don't like that imperial doctor too, do you? If you like him, it is not a bad vision. "
Shen Miao was slightly startled and asked, "You know him?"
"Huh?" Feng Anning said in surprise, "It's the first time you're interested in something like this. Well, I'll tell you with great compassion, this imperial doctor is a new doctor from the Imperial Hospital, and his medical skills are amazing. , Even the heartache and stubborn ailments of Concubine De have been cured. His Majesty valued him very much, and made an exception to let him enter the Tai Hospital. Now he is the youngest official of the Tai Hospital, and he was born well, so many girls like him very much. "
Shen Miao said, "Do you like it too?"
"How could I like him?" Feng An Ning tilted her neck, "Although he is skilled and good-looking, he is at best an imperial doctor, and he has no family support behind him, so he is alone. How can such a person want to be with me? Even you seem to like you, but if you really want to match, it's still a little bit." Feng Anning grew up being spoiled by her family, and firmly believed that her husband was also an earth-shattering big man, a small imperial doctor. I really don't care.
“What is his name?” Shen Miao asked.
“Would you really like him?” Feng Anning gave Shen Miao a suspicious look before saying, “It’s called Gao Yang, but the official family in the Ding capital does not have a portal surnamed Gao.” In other words, this Gao Yang is definitely not from everyone.
Shen Miao stared at the young imperial doctor, even ignoring Shen Qing and Ren Wanyun, her heart was a little flustered because Shen Miao found that Gao Yang gave her a familiar feeling, as if she had seen it somewhere. But in the Tai Hospital in her previous life, she had never seen such a person as Gao Yang.
Not in the Tai Hospital, where have you seen it
While thinking about it, Gao Yang had finished his pulse diagnosis, when he turned his head, he met Shen Miao's scrutinizing eyes and was also slightly startled, but he quickly came back to his senses and cupped his hands towards Ren Wanyun.
"Doctor Gao," the Queen said, "Is Miss Shen's family poisoned?"
Gao Yang glanced at Shen Qing, who had passed out, and then at Ren Wanyun, who was pale and pale, and said, "Returning to Empress, Miss Shen was not poisoned, she just drank Qinghe tea." After a pause, he He added: "The Qinghe tea that Miss Shen drinks is not poisonous, and Miss Shen is not poisoned either."
"Oh?" Emperor Wen Hui looked at Shen Qing: "Since it's not poisoned, why is it like this?"
"Go back to Your Majesty," Gao Yang sighed: "Qinghe tea is cold in nature. It's not harmful for ordinary people to drink it, but pregnant people will feel fetal gas when drinking it... Miss Shen, she is pregnant."
Miss Shen is pregnant.
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar around him. Shen Gui opened his mouth, his face turned purple in an instant, he suddenly looked at Ren Wanyun, who just collapsed to the ground in a daze.
"Okay!" It was the Wei family's wife who spoke out, she stood up all of a sudden, and regardless of the location, she pointed at Ren Wanyun and scolded, "You made a marriage appointment with my Wei family, and you actually wanted me. The Wei family married a broken shoe and raised a son for someone else, Ren Wanyun, you have no shame!"
The people around were arguing even more because of Mrs. Wei's remarks. Shen Qing's relationship with the Wei family was rumored some time ago, and today he was diagnosed with pregnancy in front of civil and military officials. What is the reason? A golden girl is pregnant, is this fornication? You still want to marry into the Wei family with your body? Ancient times, it can be regarded as a great miracle in Ming Qi.
Ren Wanyun still didn't move, her whole body seemed to have lost strength, she just half crawled to Shen Qing's side and hugged Shen Qing in her arms.
"Mrs. Shen, Ben Gong also wants to know, what's going on?" Sitting high, the queen said coldly.
Although Ming Qi is considered open-minded about matters between men and women, but being pregnant before marriage and having an affair with others is a matter of disgrace to the family. Once discovered, he will be punished. The Shen family is the head of the Ming Qi official family. Although Shen Gui's official position is not comparable to that of Shen Xin, it cannot be considered low. The higher the status of Shen Qing, the worse the impact of this incident. The queen is in charge of the six palaces, and she can't stand these pickled things. Almost everyone can hear the coldness in her voice.
Ren Wan Yun only felt bitterness at the corner of her mouth, unable to utter a word. How could she say that Shen Qing was not having an affair with someone, but was raped by someone? But no matter what it is, it is a fact that innocence is broken. As for Prince Yu, he couldn't say a single word. Prince Yu was a man who would pay attention to each other. If he climbed and bit him, I was afraid that there would be no good fruit to eat.
"Mrs. Shen doesn't say anything, then Miss Shen." The Queen's eyes suddenly sharpened and she instructed the palace maids beside her: "Go and wake up Miss Shen, this palace has something to ask."
Ren Wanyun was startled, but the palace maids next to the empress had already stepped forward. They moved very quickly, Ren Wan Yun didn't even have time to stop them, and the two palace maids had already rudely pinched Shen Qing to wake up. Shen Qing Fang woke up, still suffering from colic pain in his abdomen, but he heard the empress on the high seat ask in a cold voice, "Shen Qing, this palace asks you, who is the father of the flesh and blood in your belly?"
As soon as Shen Qing heard this, her body froze and she looked at Ren Wanyun as if asking for help. Ren Wanyun just shook her head slightly with Shen Qing, and taught her not to talk nonsense. As for the future, Ren Wanyun would always find a way to save her. from.
Seeing Ren Wanyun shaking her head, Shen Qing didn't understand what she meant, but he didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, so he stammered and said, "My servant girl... servant girl..." He couldn't say anything.
Shen Miao sighed softly and said, "Eldest sister should say it out, now that she has committed a serious crime, since it has such an ending, you cannot just let you bear this life alone."
Ren Wan Yun looked at Shen Miao fiercely, wishing to tear Shen Miao's mouth apart.
Shen Qing's body trembled, and his eyes were full of horror. The meaning of Shen Miao's words was that she could not escape her death. Between life and death, Shen Qing could not care about anything and suddenly said loudly, "No... No... my child belongs to His Royal Highness! The prince in my womb is the prince. Your Highness' flesh and blood!"
Today is really unsettled and up again, and a good return to the court banquet actually involves a lot of things. Prince Yu... Everyone looked at Prince Yu, who squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Qing with a very gloomy expression.
"Qing'er, don't talk nonsense!" Ren Wanyun rushed over and covered Shen Qing's mouth, but the water splashed out of what she said could never be recovered.
Shen Qing's eyes widened, staring at Prince Yu. What she thought was also very simple, since fornicating with outsiders, pregnancy before marriage is a necessary ending, but as long as the belly is the flesh and blood of Prince Yu, it is related to the blood of the royal family. life saver. In any case, the emperor would not order the execution of his own nephew!
Shen Miao looked at Shen Qing and felt a little funny in her heart, she could probably guess what Shen Qing was thinking in her heart, but she forgot that there is a waiter in the world called—going to the mother and keeping the child. In the harem, this method was used all the time. Did Shen Qing really think that with that little bit of flesh and blood, he would be able to live safely? It just died faster.
The Queen's expression was uncertain, if Prince Yu was involved at this time, it would indeed not be that simple.
At the men's feast, Shen Qiu and Shen Xin looked at each other. Shen Xin was fine, but he was a little stunned by this matter, but Shen Qiu secretly clenched his fists. Before Shen Miao never dared to tell him who the person who raped Shen Qing was, but now it was all clear, no wonder Shen Miao refused to say that it was Prince Yu. When he thought that if it wasn't for Shen Miao's good luck, it was his younger sister who fell to Shen Qing's level now, and Shen Qiu's heart was filled with depression.
Prince Yu didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either. In this way, it was almost certain. Everyone looked at Shen Qing with sympathy and pity. Prince Yu always liked to secretly kidnap girls by various means, and even the daughter of the official family dared to move. Now the unlucky person happens to be Shen Qing.
In the silence, Shen Miao's voice sounded softly and she said, "No wonder His Royal Highness proposed to marry a girl from the Shen family earlier, originally he wanted to give the eldest sister a name."
These words were light, but it made everyone present suddenly realize, no wonder, just now, Prince Yu said that he wanted to marry the princess, and he liked the girl of the Shen family, but it turned out to be Shen Qing, no, he even has children. For a while, the gaze that looked at Shen Qing changed again. In this way, it was not like Prince Yu forced her, but Shen Qing voluntarily became the princess.
"This fifth Miss Shen is amazing." Su Mingfeng said in surprise: "The ability to confuse black and white is also extremely high."
Most people were led by the nose, but they did not represent everyone. Those with a clear mind still remembered that when Prince Yu said he wanted to marry a Shen family girl, he looked at Shen Miao.
Xie Jing Xing hugged his chest and looked at the girl in purple on the opposite side with a half-smile. Not knowing when, all the people at the palace banquet had already been led away by Shen Miao. Now that it has developed to this point, it is all in her calculations. And this is not without danger. She is brave enough to bet, and she plays accurately, taking everyone's reactions into it, and making a good move.
That being the case, he didn't mind adding fuel to the flames, and immediately, Xie Jing Xing also said, "It is very good to be affectionate and righteous."
The emperor's brows were barely visible, and he must know that although Prince Yu used to be a fool, he would not bring these matters to the stage. No matter what happens in private, there will always be a way to solve it, but in the public, punishment This king brother? I'm afraid that it will make Prince Yu feel resentment in his heart, so I will expose it. When the emperor is so shielded, it will not be able to deter the officials. As for Shen Miao and Xie Jing Xing, they came up with a very good method, if it was said that the two of them did things in harmony, it would be understandable. He glanced at the queen, and the queen understood, and said, "So it turns out that the girl that Wang brother mentioned before was actually Miss Shen, but the two of you are really messed up. What will happen in the future when such a big disaster happens? "
Shen Qing breathed a sigh of relief, disregarding the pain in his stomach, he got up and knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging: "It's all the minister's fault, but the minister's daughter is reluctant to bear the flesh and blood in her belly, so I beg your majesty to look after the child in the minister's daughter's womb. For the sake of it, spare the servant girl once."
There were four boos, and this time Shen Qing had no dignity at all, only lost all his inner and face. The queen also looked at her in disgust, but said lightly: "The guilt is hard to escape, but since today is a return banquet, it's just a happy event, and the younger brother has been widowed for so many years, and this palace will treat it as a good thing today. Sending you A marriage between the two is also a golden and jade good relationship."
Shen Qing saved her life, and quickly said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you for your success." Little did she know how embarrassing her actions were in the eyes of others. In the past, Shen Qing only said that Shen Miao should not stand on the stage, but now, Shen Qing herself has become the most unworthy daughter of the Shen family.
Prince Yu looked at Shen Qing gloomily, his eyes turned and landed on Shen Miao again. Sitting high, the emperor stared at him with a warning, and Prince Yu had to bow his hands and said slowly, "Thank you, brother and sister-in-law, for your success."
It's just that the coldness in those words, only the parties themselves know.
The corners of Shen Miao's lips were raised, and she looked at Prince Yu without fear, and in her clear eyes, there was a little bit of joy, but in the joy there was a hint of ferocity, like a giant beast.
Today is just the beginning of the dish, and what is really left to Prince Yu's mansion is still to come. In front of Prince Yu, he emptied the abacus he had made. Presumably at this moment, Prince Yu was already furious in his heart.
When people are in a hurry to attack their hearts, they are most likely to make mistakes, and the slightest mistake is like the wrong piece of a chessboard on a chessboard.
She tilted her head, her eyes were very bright, but the smile with the corners of her lips looked at it with a shuddering terror.
Begin, Prince Yu.
