Forcing me to raise a concubine? The mistress of the Marquisate has gone mad

An assassin appeared at the celebration banquet, the emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation!

Marquis Changning and his wife were rewarded for their service in saving the emperor, and he was promoted to the rank of Fenglin Guard Captain, in charge of the infantry battalion and responsible for the imperial city guards. Marquis Changning's wife, Shen, was given the title of Second Rank Imperial Concubine, with the title of Concubine.

"May our ancestors bless us! May our ancestors bless us!"

When Mrs. Lu heard the good news, her whole body glowed with new radiance.

"I heard that the assassins appeared suddenly, and the guards were caught off guard. Fortunately, you were here to protect the emperor and the queen mother from danger. Jing'er, you and Ruoyan really made the Marquis' Mansion proud!"

People outside said that the Changning Marquisate would rise from now on. First, Lu Jing gained the trust of the emperor, and now he has the merit of saving the emperor, and his glory is unlimited.

Even the wife of Marquis Changning saved the Queen Mother - the whole family was together, and no one was left out of the credit. It was really enviable!

Lu Jing was in high spirits. Even though he didn't like what Mrs. Lu said, it didn't affect his good mood.

Captain!

That’s the captain of Fenglinwei!

The official position that the sons of noble families fought so hard for just fell into his hands?

Until now, Lu Jing still felt that this seemed like a dream, so vague that it was hard to see clearly and believe.

His chest was wrapped tightly and he could only lie on the bed. Even for a drink of water he had to have someone serve him. It was a painful price he paid.

Shen Ruoyan pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief and said, "The doctor said that if the sword had been off by one point, the Marquis would have been dead. Fortunately, the Marquis was lucky enough to escape danger."

Madam Lu was shocked, "So dangerous?!"

When she received the news and rushed over, Shen Ruoyan had already made all the arrangements.

The imperial physicians from the palace accompanied them and did not dare to slack off. When Mrs. Lu arrived, Lu Jing had already been bandaged and looked like he had only suffered some external injuries, so she thought it was a blessing from her ancestors.

Unexpectedly, this time it was my grandson who risked his life!

There was a rare hint of embarrassment on Mrs. Lu's face, but it was not obvious on her wrinkled face.

Fortunately, Lu Jing didn't care. He looked at Shen Ruoyan and smiled, "Madam, you have stepped forward this time and saved the Queen Mother. In the future, our blessings are still to come!"

He really thought so. He saved the emperor, and Shen Ruoyan saved the empress dowager. The two most noble people in the world were both saved by them!

What an honor!

Although Lu Jing knew that he had saved the emperor, it was a blind cat catching a dead mouse - but the scene was chaotic at the time, and even the emperor himself was not sure whether he was being pressed down and wanted to turn over, or deliberately turned over to block the sword for him...

Others will not question it even more.

Now that the imperial decree has been issued, no one can take away this credit!

Lu Jing fell asleep contentedly. He must have been having a sweet dream, as the corners of his mouth were raised.

Shen Ruoyan and Old Madam Lu walked out quietly. When they got outside, Old Madam Lu remembered that Shen Ruoyan had also been given an imperial decree, so she praised her, "Ruoyan, you did a great job this time. You are worthy of being the daughter-in-law of my mansion. You know how to bring honor to the mansion!"

"Grandma, you're too kind. I didn't think too much about it at the time. It was all just instinct." Shen Ruoyan said modestly.

Although they were in the Marquis' Mansion, this time, she and Lu Jing suddenly came into everyone's sight, and there were people staring at them everywhere.

Walls have ears, and this is not just a saying.

Shen Ruoyan's neither humble nor overbearing attitude made Old Lady Lu appreciate her even more. She suddenly felt that the daughter of the Shen family was indeed good. She could always hold her own in such a big occasion.

If it was someone like Fang Rou, she would be thankful that she didn't drag the Queen Mother down with her...

It seems that Zhuhong's son will have to be taught by Shen Ruoyan in the future.

After all, they are from aristocratic families, and the children educated by them have different temperaments.

Lu Changchuan, an adopted son from outside, has become more and more extraordinary. If you don't know him, you might think he is the son of some noble family.

It is enough to show that Shen Ruoyan is indeed a good parent.

At this time, Shen Ruoyan didn't know that she had been targeted by Madam Lu again.

When she went to block the Queen Mother, her elbow hit the ground and she got a little scratched. At this moment, Chun Xi was carefully applying medicine to her.

"Those assassins were too bold to actually attempt an assassination at the celebration banquet. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm and nothing serious happened. But Madam, you must take care of yourself in the future. They are assassins who kill without blinking an eye!"

Chun Xi couldn’t even imagine how Shen Ruoyan would have been able to save his life if the guards hadn’t arrived in time.

Not to mention saving the Queen Mother!

This is truly the result of risking one’s life!

Shen Ruoyan smiled slightly and did not answer.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

The palace was heavily guarded, so it was naturally difficult for ordinary assassins to carry out the assassination. But what if someone familiar with the palace's defenses tipped them off and arranged for someone to meet them inside?

After being reborn from Shen Ruoyan's body, all of Lu Hua's previous men were out of contact.

In addition, after her death, the emperor cut off the roots of her family and took the opportunity to stir up trouble, sending her family out of Shengjing. He also re-counted the personnel in the palace, which had a great impact on her layout.

Fortunately, her hard work paid off. She consolidated the power of the Marquis' Mansion and took it into her own hands.

They were not idle with the outside world either. They finally gathered all the previous strength and re-established contact.

Did Zhuang Mi and her son think that they could do whatever they wanted after I left?

As the empress dowager, it is a mistake not to take the ancestral country as your own responsibility!

As an emperor, it is a mistake not to take responsibility for the people and the country!

As a human being, it is a huge mistake to disregard human life and be selfish!

She had planted the seeds with her own hands, and now she had to reap the fruits! Meng Su let the tiger go back to the mountains. With the courage and vision of the new emperor Meng Su, his ambition would definitely not be affected by this failure.

Instead, it will allow him to sum up his experience and make adequate preparations for a comeback.

Before that day comes, she must ensure that the superiors have a clear mind. At least, they will not make the absurd decision of ceding territory and paying compensation!

When Meng Su's army headed straight for Nanwu, the emperor's first thought was not how to fight back, but how to seek peace!

Cede territory and pay compensation, or even send a princess as a bride, these absurd ideas are more outrageous than the last!

Did he think that no one would know unless he issued an edict?

All these things, one by one, were under Shen Ruoyan's control! Otherwise, there would not have been this assassination!

Dasheng has begun to decay.

The root of this corruption is in the palace and in the court. It is a road of corruption from top to bottom!

When she was the Queen Mother, she was worshipped by the people and respected by all the officials - now, it is time for her to take responsibility!
