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

"If the Marquis doesn't want to, then forget it."

Shen Ruoyan did not urge him, but just looked at him with a smile. The invisible pressure made Lu Jing sweat on his back.

"I'll sign it, I'll sign it!"

He signed his name with a broken heart, and felt heartbroken every time he looked at it.

But fortunately, after signing, Shen Ruoyan's attitude towards him returned to the same as before. It really is true that you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child!

He suffered a great loss!

However, later Lu Jing thanked himself for his foresight today.

Lu Yan and Lu Changchuan were sons of a marquisate, one a prince and the other an adopted son. However, they were maliciously beaten by the princess because they helped their classmate who was bullied by the prince of Shun.

A fight between children cannot solve a case, but when adults intervene, the meaning changes.

Previously, Prince Shun's Mansion relied on its power and not only refused to admit what it had done, but it even incited public opinion and threw dirty water on the Changning Marquis' Mansion. But now the truth has come to light, and after the incident with the storyteller, the princess's reputation has completely collapsed.

"Is this what you meant by finding a solution?" King Shunqing was furious. Such a small matter had been dragged on for so long, and in the end it was their palace that was brought to shame!

Especially since the princess's invitation was taken back by the princess's mansion, she became a joke among the entire Shengjing noble ladies circle!

Even her husband is embarrassed!

"Do you know that when I entered the palace today, I was criticized by my brother again. He said that Princess Yihe said that you are immoral and have damaged the reputation of the royal family, and asked me to teach you a lesson!"

A princess has fallen to the point where she has to be taught the rules by her husband's family. If anyone were to tell others about it, it would be a shame.

But the person who spoke was his imperial sister, who could not tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes, so even he could not refute her.

The princess felt wronged, but she didn't dare to disobey the prince's words. She could only reluctantly defend herself, "I don't know why the princess did this. I heard that she even asked Shen Ruoyan to accompany her to appreciate the flowers. Isn't this deliberately slapping our palace in the face?"

Her mind started to work at this time. "Besides, the princess is still a member of the royal family. Even if I did something wrong, I can't say anything behind closed doors. Why do I have to help outsiders speak?"

The more the princess thought about it, the more she felt that it was not her fault. It was all the princess's fault for being narrow-minded and unable to tolerate mistakes: "If you ask me, the princess doesn't take the prince seriously. If it was her own brother, would she act so disrespectfully?"

Princess Yihe took back the invitation to the princess, but still invited Shen Ruoyan to the banquet. This action really showed that she did not take Prince Shun's Mansion seriously at all.

The princess’ words touched the prince’s heart. If he was his biological brother, would she do the same?

Could she be so cruel?

After all, they are not brothers from the same mother, so they naturally won't care that much. They would rather protect an outsider than consider their own family members.

Now the people outside all say that Princess Yihe is able to distinguish right from wrong and is a model of a royal lady - this good reputation was gained by stepping on the roof of Prince Shun's palace!

Prince Shun looked gloomy and very angry.

But the current situation is not favorable to him. If he cannot give an explanation, I am afraid that even his brother will not stand on his side.

"Don't worry about the princess. The most urgent task is to calm this matter down." He, Prince Shun, could be said to have done nothing, but he could not be accused of bullying others by taking advantage of his power.

Everyone in Shengjing City knows whose power he is relying on!

If I drag my brother into this, it will be too late to regret!

The princess also realized that the development of the situation had exceeded her imagination. She had spent so much money but still failed to control the public opinion.

She stared at the prince blankly, trying to find an idea, "Then your Majesty, how should this matter be resolved?"

Prince Shun looked at her deeply, and thought, the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it!

The roosters outside had been crowing for a long time, and the sky was bright. The innkeeper opened the door, rubbed his still wet eyes, and began to clean up in a daze.

Gradually, as the light in the sky became more and more dazzling, more and more people appeared walking outside.

At this time, a gorgeous carriage suddenly stopped at the gate of Changning Marquis's Mansion. People passing by stopped curiously, wanting to see who was sitting in such a beautiful carriage.

"This princess misunderstood the two young masters of your mansion before, and failed to punish them. Now I have come to my senses, and I have specially prepared a generous gift to come and apologize!"

Princess Shun stood at the gate of Changning Marquis's Mansion and spoke loudly. The people around her widened their eyes in shock, and some even pinched their arms, thinking they were dreaming!

The princess came to apologize?

Is this true?

After Shen Ruoyan got the news, she immediately rushed to the door. She adjusted her clothes as she walked. Even in a panic, she was still well-behaved and cautious, and did not lose her composure in her rush to leave the house.

But when she arrived, the entrance to the mansion was already surrounded by people. Princess Shun stood in the middle of the crowd, her face no longer full of her usual arrogance, but she explained in a soft voice that she had taken action because she had misunderstood that the two young masters of the mansion were bullying her child.

She was just a strong mother, and after learning the truth, she felt very regretful.

However, due to the reputation of Prince Shun's mansion, he dared not go out, which allowed the rumors to become more and more rampant.

Now that she has figured it out, she put aside her status and came to the Changning Marquis' Mansion with generous gifts to apologize, hoping to gain the Marquis's wife's forgiveness.

"It turned out to be a misunderstanding. If my child was bullied, I would definitely take action. The princess's actions are actually understandable."

"Yes, and the status of Prince Shun's wife is so noble, she is a member of the royal family! She is willing to condescend to come and apologize in person. It is really sincere and precious..."

"If I were the wife of the Marquis, I would definitely not care. The princess has already admitted her mistake, what else do you want her to do?"

Sometimes people are so contradictory and ridiculous.

When standing from the perspective of the weak, no matter how noble the identity of the bully is, or how powerful he is, they seem to be able to unite and rise up in resistance, vowing to uphold justice and fairness in this world!

However, when the superiors put aside their status and came in person to show their concern, or apologized in person like the princess did - they felt that this was already very good, and it would be impolite to make a fuss about it.

Because, from the beginning to the end, they have put themselves in an unequal position.

They put themselves in the lowest level of the dust, and when others show a little kindness, they grab it and deceive themselves.

I thought this was fair.

In fact, this is the beginning of inequality.

The door of the Marquis's Mansion was opened in a flash, and Shen Ruoyan walked out slowly amidst the crowd. Seeing the princess acting passionately over there, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, but her face was not at all flustered.

Acting, huh?

I am a master in this area!
