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

Chapter 94 You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a child

If it were any other time, Lu Jing would have walked away long ago if he had been treated like this by Shen Ruoyan.

But he had banned Shen Ruoyan from walking some time ago, and now she has won the favor of the princess again. Before she came, the old lady even sent someone to tell her that she must be coaxed.

Yes, no matter what Shen Ruoyan becomes, he is still the man she loves the most.

It's normal for women to have some temper.

Shen Ruoyan was like this just now, he must be angry at me for treating him like that before, he was being petty with him!

"Madam, the previous house arrest was not my intention. But at that time, my grandmother was in power and I couldn't disobey her. I had no choice but to resort to this last resort." Lu Jing pushed all the mistakes onto Madam Lu.

Anyway, grandma said that no matter what method he used, he had to coax Shen Ruoyan.

Well, it doesn't matter if you throw some dirty water on me.

Anyway, as long as Shen Ruoyan doesn’t say it, grandma won’t know.

"My Lord, are you saying that it was my grandmother's idea to put me under house arrest before?" Shen Ruoyan asked.

How shameless does a person have to be to be able to say such a thing without batting an eyelid. Moreover, the person on the other side is the grandmother who raised him.

Shen Ruoyan originally thought that Lu Jing was just irresponsible.

Unexpectedly, he has no face!

Lu Jing spoke without shame and frankly: "It is indeed grandma's intention. I have advised her, but the older she gets, the more stubborn she becomes, causing Madam to suffer."

He spoke very seriously, if Shen Ruoyan hadn't been smart, she would have been fooled by him!

"But don't worry, ma'am. When I find a chance, I will talk to my grandmother and ask her to compensate you." Lu Jing said perfunctorily. Anyway, he just wanted to push all the mistakes away first, as long as it had nothing to do with him.

As for whether there would be compensation or not, Shen Ruoyan would not ask anyway.

"Compensation for what?" Shen Ruoyan asked seriously.

"Ah?" Lu Jing was confused. He just said it casually. There was no compensation at all!

However, when he met Shen Ruoyan's expectant gaze, he couldn't say the words of refusal.

I always feel that this seems to be related to his dignity as the head of the family.

Shen Ruoyan rushed forward, not giving him a chance to escape or change the subject, "My Lord is right, my grandmother is old, and as a junior, I shouldn't have bothered with her. However, I was forced to admit my fault this time, even the princess felt that I was wronged yesterday."

"You complained to the princess?" Lu Jing was shocked, and anger instantly surged in his heart, "What did you say to the princess about the family affairs in the mansion?!"

As expected, outsiders are outsiders and will not put the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion first.

It was just some trivial matters at home, but Shen Ruoyan actually made a fuss in front of the princess!

Does she want the princess to seek justice for her? !

A woman's view!

"My Lord, you see, you have wronged me again." Shen Ruoyan looked at him calmly, without any surprise on her face, as if she had expected it.

"The princess heard about Prince Shun's wife bullying others by taking advantage of her power, and she felt that the Marquis' Mansion had been wronged, so she comforted me yesterday."

Yuan'er didn't bother to care about these things, but the rumor that she had a close conversation with the princess yesterday was already known to everyone. What did the princess say? Would Lu Jing run up to her and ask?

Obviously not.

Shen Ruoyan seized on this point and said aggrievedly: "The princess said we did nothing wrong and should not be bullied like this. Otherwise, is there any justice in this world?"

She blinked her eyes and squeezed out a few tears. "Now that my grandmother has wronged me like this, shouldn't she give me some compensation?"

"I see."

Lu Jing felt a little embarrassed, blaming himself for not asking clearly just now. He almost blamed Shen Ruoyan wrongly.

When they heard her mention the princess again, they didn't expect that the princess would actually stand on their side instead of helping Prince Shun's Mansion.

There is a lot of knowledge involved here.

Prince Shun is the emperor's younger brother, but the princess is also the emperor's sister!

Besides, the late emperor had many sons, but few princesses. The only one raised by the empress dowager was Princess Yihe.

She is the one who must not be offended!

Now that Shen Ruoyan had shown up in front of her, it was said that the Princess of Shun had also been invited, but after the storyteller incident, the princess withdrew her invitation.

To this day, people still laugh at me!

If Shen Ruoyan could accompany the princess to appreciate the flowers, then the princess could have said those words to her. Otherwise, with so many noble ladies present, why only let Shen Ruoyan accompany them?

Lu Jing prided himself on having thought it through clearly, and instead felt that this was a good opportunity to curry favor with the princess.

And this depends on Shen Ruoyan!

"Then tell me, what kind of compensation do you want? I will make the decision for you on this matter." When Lu Jing said this, he felt that his image was extremely majestic.

Anyway, he still has some money in his private treasury, so he can just take out some and use it to get rid of Shen Ruoyan.

"My lord, after this incident, I deeply feel that a person must have a foundation to stand on. So, I don't want any other compensation. My lord, just give me a few shops." Shen Ruoyan already had a plan in her mind. When she said the word "compensation", she had already made a list in her mind.

She stood up, walked to the side, picked up the pen and started writing.

Lu Jing saw that she wrote as smoothly as flowing water, without any pause, and the words she wrote were full of style - she was worthy of being a girl taught by the Shen family, she exuded the scent of books all over her body!

However, when he looked carefully and saw clearly what Shen Ruoyan wrote, his eyes almost popped out!

"so much?!"

Shen Ruoyan wrote about the popular shops he owned. Moreover, the locations were particularly good. It could be said that these were the few shops in Lu Jing's hands that were not losing money.

He was not good at business, but he also knew that these shops were the ones that made money for him.

Shen Ruoyan asked for several at a time, it was simply a huge request!

"My Lord, are you unwilling?" The light in Shen Ruoyan's eyes dimmed instantly. She looked at the words she had written silently without saying a word.

After a while, when he raised his head again, his eyes were slightly red.

"If the Marquis is unwilling, why did he make such a boast that he would compensate me? Anyway, I am insignificant in this mansion. The Marquis is not even willing to give me a few shops to perfunctorily deal with me. Then please go back."

Shen Ruoyan was angry, and what she said seemed like she was sulking at Lu Jing.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about what I will say. My heart is dead. You don't need to confine me. I will just stay indoors!"

How can you curry favor with the princess if you stay indoors? !

Only by currying favor with the princess can they have something to rely on. At that time, even if Kang Ge is brought back and Prince Shun’s Mansion notices the clues, even if they want to retaliate against the Marquis’ Mansion, they have to consider the princess’s face - so Shen Ruoyan is crucial!

You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. Lu Jing hardened his heart and gritted his teeth and said, "What are you talking about, Madam? How could I be unwilling?"

Lu Jing raised his voice and said, "It's just a few shops. Just give them to Madam."

Shen Ruoyan immediately responded, "Really?"

Lu Jing nodded, "Of course it's true."

Then the next second, a transfer document was handed to him. Shen Ruoyan smiled slightly and said, "Words are not enough, only written words can prove it. Since the Marquis has said so, then sign it."

Lu Jing was stunned. After he realized what was happening, his heart was bleeding and his money was twitching.

"Do I need to sign? No need, right?"
