The famine-escape cub vs. the fake daughter cub

"Qingyun! In front of our elders, you should at least restrain yourself!"

Shen Hongtai saw that it was really outrageous, and couldn't help but side with Xu Manxiu and scolded, "She is your mother after all."

Yunli looked at Shen Hongtai and said with a look of sudden enlightenment, "Grandfather, didn't you know that Queen Mother Chen was Wang Yuan's biological daughter, so you decided to step on Madam Shen Er to get close to Queen Mother Chen? Oh, and by the way, you can train Madam Shen Er to be a dog loyal to Queen Mother Chen, right?"

Shen Hongtai couldn't help but twitch his face. He quickly smiled at Master Chen and said, "Excuse me, my child is useless, useless."

He actually didn't know what he was thinking.

He was extremely shocked when he first learned this.

His whole heart was divided into three parts, one for Wang Yuan, one for Xu Manxiu, and the other for Empress Dowager Chen, whom he just learned was Wang Yuan's daughter.

In Shen Hongtai's opinion, it would be best if these three people could coexist peacefully.

But obviously that was impossible, he was just dreaming.

However, Xu Manxiu's attitude gave him some hope.

If Xu Manxiu insisted, perhaps the Chen family father and son would be willing to put aside their past grudges, let bygones be bygones, and continue to protect Queen Mother Chen, Wang Yuan, and Xu Manxiu?

As for the competition among girls, I believe that with grown men like them around, they won't be able to cause any big trouble.

Yunli saw through this guy's mind and laid the matter out in the open, saying, "The two Master Chens probably don't know that our grandfather is a lovesick man. He has been obsessed with his former mother-in-law, the current Noble Lady Wang Yuan, for decades."

"Shut up!"

Shen Hongtai's beard was almost falling off. "When is it your turn as a junior to comment on matters between our elders? Besides, I am your grandfather after all. How can I allow you to slander my reputation like this?"

Yunli shrugged and temporarily withdrew from the battlefield.

She felt that it would be better for the Chen father and son to directly confront Shen Hongtai, the bootlicker, at this moment.

Master Chen received her gaze, coughed and asked, "Does Prime Minister Shen want to protect Queen Mother Chen?"

As expected of Master Chen, he hit the most crucial point in just one sentence.

Shen Hongtai was speechless for a long while before he said, "After all, they are the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. The late Emperor has no other heirs. If we rashly touch the Empress Dowager, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the Emperor? Please think twice, Master."

"Who will think of my dead wife, son, and grandson?"

Chen Yiyu chuckled and said lightly.

"Brother Chen, we still don't know what happened. How can you say that it was Queen Mother Chen and Madam Xu who did it? If they were wrongly accused, wouldn't they feel wronged?"

Shen Hongtai quickly helped to explain.

"Then tell me why the daughter of Chen Yiyu and my wife Wang Wanying looks like her Wang Yuan and General Xu. Why does Wang Yuan's daughter look so similar to me and my wife?"

Chen Yiyu sneered, "Prime Minister Shen, you are not going to say that my wife who passed away early could not bear to see the young girl of the Xu family living in such an environment, so she sacrificed her own daughter to help Wang Yuan? Then tell me, why has Wang Yuan stopped associating with my Chen family since my wife passed away? He even forbade the child to appear in my Chen family?"

Everything pointed to Wang Yuan, but Shen Hongtai was deaf and blind and pretended not to see it.
