As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

Li Jing just came here in a hurry to go through the motions. He was now full of disappointment with the Xu family. He didn't know whether the death of Master Xu was true or false, but he knew that his chance to become a relative of the Xu family was lost.

When he got the news, he was so angry that his eyes turned red.

However, after he came to his senses, he understood one thing: the Xu family would no longer be as glorious as it was when Master Xu was in power.

There is no outstanding son among the Xu family's descendants, and they are not very prominent in the court. It has been Taifu Xu who has been supporting them over the years. Even Taifu Xu would come to sound him out on various situations in the court.

Now Li Jing was thinking that since the marriage was not possible, a lean camel was still bigger than a horse, so he still had to win over the Xu family, otherwise he would be further disadvantaged in this situation.

……

It is worth mentioning that the second prince, who was far away in the frontier, did not come back to attend Tutor Xu’s funeral this time, which surprised many people.

Among them was Li Wenxuan. In fact, during this period of time, he had been silently watching Li Jing's every move.

Since the last incident, he has spent most of his time observing Li Jing. He has realized that Li Jing is in an urgent situation.

Li Wenxuan stood in the crowd and saw Li Jing's departing back from a distance. He thought for a second and said, "Send someone to follow him."

The guard standing behind him nodded and left Li Wenxuan quietly.

After all, Tutor Xu was an old minister of several dynasties, and he still had many disciples and students. In addition, Emperor Yingde personally ordered that he should be re-employed, so he could be sent back to his hometown in glory.

A few days later, Shen Lanyue received a reply letter from Xu Ziyun, in which she expressed her understanding for her inability to come back, congratulated her on having a child, and gave her the little gadgets she had carefully selected.

In the letter, Shen Lanyue was repeatedly reminded to pay attention to all aspects in the early stage.

Shen Lanyue didn't know what was going on. She hadn't cried for many years. But when she looked at the letter sent by Xu Ziyun, the caring words made her tears flow unconsciously.

I felt an indescribable pain in my heart, as if there was a stone blocking my heart.

"Oh, my wife, why are you crying?" When Fanfan came in with the medicine, he saw Shen Lanyue's appearance and widened his eyes in surprise.

Because she hadn't seen Shen Lanyue cry like this for many years, that feeling of sadness and sorrow. The last time she saw it was when Shen Lanyue was still a young lady, in Madam Shen's ancestral hall.

Shen Lanyue raised her head, chuckled, wiped away her tears and said, "It's okay, I just got emotional all of a sudden."

Fanfan glanced down at the paper on the table and realized that it was probably a letter from Miss Xu. He sighed silently in his heart.

I didn't dare say anything.

"Madam, you still have to take the medicine. You are not well yet."

Shen Lanyue paused for a moment, put the letter in her hand into the letter paper, took the medicine and drank it all.

As soon as I put the candied fruit down to my lips, I was handed it.

Shen Lanyue took it and the smile on her lips curled up a little.

This was Meng Changce's special instruction to Fanfan. She was an extremely tolerant person. One time, when Meng Changce saw the change in her eyes when she was drinking medicine, he immediately guessed that she actually didn't like these bitter medicines.

Shen Lanyue remembered that she only glanced slightly, and there was no change in her expression, but he could observe this carefully, and the next day when Fanfan brought the medicine, there was candied fruit.

I still remember the cunning that could not be hidden in his casual eyes at that time.

She was completely frozen when she saw this. She couldn't accept all these changes in Meng Changce all of a sudden. It was as if they were just an ordinary couple in love.

After Shen Lanyue became pregnant, she spent very little time going out. It was not that Meng Changce restricted her travel, but she became extremely sleepy, her body started to become lazy, and she no longer liked to go out.

At the beginning, when Meng Changce learned the news, he felt anxious all over.

One day, Shen Lanyue slept in the afternoon until it was almost completely dark. When she opened her eyes, she saw Meng Changce sitting beside the bed and staring at her, which scared her.

In fact, his face looked extremely bad at that time, so gloomy as if the sky was about to fall.

"What..." Shen Lanyue was a little confused and before she could finish her words, she was hugged by Meng Changce.

And he was holding her tightly, or to be more precise, he was holding her completely in his arms. Shen Lanyue felt how strong his strength was.

"never mind."

Shen Lanyue didn't know what was going on, but her only thought at that time was to hug him tightly.

At that time, the two of them hugged each other tightly. Under the moonlight, Shen Lanyue felt at ease. The pleasant smell on his body and his warm embrace made Shen Lanyue feel safe and comfortable.

He was holding me so tightly at that time.

It was only later that Shen Lanyue learned from Fanfan that that was the longest time she had ever slept, and she had never been a sleepy person.

This is how a situation like this would occur.

It was not until the doctor carefully examined him and confirmed that there was no problem that Meng Changce felt relieved, and his complexion showed signs of clearing up.

However, after that incident, Shen Lanyue discovered that more than half of the people in the mansion had been replaced, and the security in her courtyard became even stricter.

Meng Changce also became extremely busy, and Shen Lanyue secretly noticed several times that his face looked very bad.

But Meng Changce never showed it in front of her. Every time he came back to her room, he would hold her in his arms for a long time and ask her about her activities of the day.

The gentleness was unlike any of her impressions.

Two months passed like this, and Shen Lanyue received a piece of news that shocked her.

Sun Shuhao gave birth to a daughter prematurely, and she survived a near-death experience. Her health was very poor. The most important thing was that it was Shen Wanqing who caused Sun Shuhao to give birth prematurely.

When Shen Lanyue heard the news, she fell silent for a rare moment.

Fanfan seemed to be gloating a little. She didn't have a good impression of either of them.

"Madam, I heard that the Queen Mother knows about this matter and has brought the three imperial concubines to the palace. Will this implicate Madam? She is too bold."

Shen Lanyue glanced out the window, a ripple flashing in her eyes.

I'm afraid Shen Wanqing didn't do this. She wouldn't be so stupid as to harm Sun Shuhao's child at this time.
