As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off
Chapter 20: The Meng family has its own army?
The next morning, before receiving the good news from the eldest princess about who the candidate was, I received some extremely bad news.
Originally, this matter had little to do with Shen Lanyue, or even had nothing to do with it at all, but this was for her in her previous life.
This has something to do with this life. The uncle of Marquis Changning was reported in the court, and the charges were outrageous.
Support your troops and respect yourself!
This was one of the most taboo things in the royal family. The current emperor was furious in the court. After scolding the person who made the complaint, he also scolded everyone present.
Several princes also stayed in the palace at the same time. I heard that they were driven out after staying there for an hour, and each of them had a bad look on their faces.
Afterwards, the emperor summoned Meng Changce into the imperial study. Only half an hour later, everyone thought he would be kicked out too. As a result, the emperor just summoned those important ministers who had returned home into the imperial study again.
He hasn't come out until now, so when someone passed the message to Shen Lanyue, she learned about it.
"Madam, is the Marquis okay?" Fanfan asked her young lady in a low voice after seeing that the other servants had left.
She was really worried. Even as a little maid she knew how serious this matter was. She was even more worried about the young lady.
Now that the young lady is married to the Marquis, it means that they all rise and fall together. The young lady didn't have many good days before encountering such a thing.
Shen Lanyue just frowned slightly, but she was not worried at all.
"I'm fine. Go to the kitchen and tell them to eat light food. Prepare some food for the evening. The Marquis may not be back until the evening, so prepare it in advance."
Fanfan nodded repeatedly, "Yes, ma'am."
Shen Lanyue sat in front of the window, watching the orange clouds in the sky. It was already sunset. It seemed that Meng Changce would not be back until the evening, so she relaxed and recalled what happened at this time in her previous life.
Thinking back carefully, she didn't remember much about the impact of this incident. She just remembered that the situation at home was quite tense during those days. At that time, she was still in seclusion and did not have many opportunities to communicate with her father.
It seems that the matter is indeed serious, but I don’t know whether the Meng family has been punished.
However, Shen Lanyue knew that Meng Changce would be fine, as he was the regent who survived to the end.
The Meng family might not come. As for what role that old fox Meng Changce played in this, he didn't think he would be unaware of such an important matter.
With his control, if he didn't want anyone to harm the Meng family, then this crime would never appear in the court.
Unless... Meng Changce let it go on purpose...
All of a sudden, Shen Lanyue felt like a pot of ice water was poured over her head. Every hair on her body stood up and a hint of chill flashed across her eyes.
She couldn't guess what Meng Changce was going to do, but what she wanted to know was whether she could hide it from him and whether the actions behind her were already within his sight.
Thinking of this, Shen Lanyue suddenly felt a little fortunate that she married him early, because as long as she did not harm his interests, she would get his protection.
The Meng family has become an abandoned child, abandoned by Meng Changce.
He was testing other people in the court, or rather, he was testing other princes.
Midnight, the night breeze is cool
Meng Changce finally came out of the palace. When he got into the carriage, he swept away his tiredness, raised the corners of his mouth and sneered, with disgust between his brows and contempt in his eyes.
"How about other places?"
The secret guard replied: "Just as the master expected."
Meng Changce seemed to be asking casually, not caring about the result. "The mansion can be quiet."
"The lady in the mansion handled it very well, and those people were just as the master expected."
Meng Changce asked as if he had heard something curious, "It seems that a new group of people are going to be replaced in this mansion."
The secret guard didn't dare to answer.
When Shen Lanyue heard the servant say that the Marquis had returned, she directly asked Fanfan to prepare dinner. After Meng Changce entered the room, she took him to change his outer clothes, and the food was served.
"I thought that my husband shouldn't eat too greasy food at night, so it would be best to have something light." Shen Lanyue waved away the others and sat down.
Meng Changce could only look at her with a smile and started eating out of courtesy.
Shen Lanyue served him a bowl of pork ribs and corn soup and handed it to him: "It's cold at night, my husband should drink the soup to warm his body first."
A trace of tenderness flashed across Meng Changce's eyes, and the coldness faded away. Seeing that her white fingertips were slightly reddened by the bowl, he smiled and took the bowl.
The two of them finished their dinner in silence. Meng Changce mainly ate, and occasionally he would feed Shen Lanyue when he felt it was good. It was a harmonious meal.
At least the wind and rain outside didn't bother them.
Meng Changce took the last bite, washed up, and threw his handkerchief into the basin, watching himself being broken in the water.
He turned to Shen Lanyue who was standing beside him, stroked her cheek and said, "Since you are sick, let others handle the recent affairs of the mansion."
Shen Lanyue blinked and met his gaze, and was stunned.
"Yes, I'm recuperating in the hospital recently and I won't go there."
Meng Changce heard her soft voice, held her in his arms, slowly stroked her back and whispered to her, "Be good."
Wherever she couldn't see, the smile on his face had gradually faded, and his expression became increasingly gloomy, but the force with which he pressed Shen Lanyue against his chest was very light.
The touch is also very gentle.
Everyone in the Marquis's Mansion knew that the Marquis had been very angry last night. He returned to his own courtyard from his wife's room in the middle of the night, and at the same time gave his wife's housekeeping power to several concubines who were more favored in the mansion.
The lady was also seriously ill and was recuperating in the hospital, not seeing anyone.
I was ill for four or five days and stayed indoors.
At the same time, this news reached Shen Wanqing's ears. Shen Wanqing was very happy at home. Soon the opportunity to host the lantern festival was announced to her.
This made her so happy that she couldn't contain her joy at home. She wanted to organize it well and truly demonstrate her abilities in the capital.
Shen Lanyue, who was being laughed at, was feeding fish leisurely in the yard, looking so free and happy.
Hearing that it was Shen Wanqing who was happy about the news, he could only laugh at her stupidity. Perhaps when God gave her beauty, he forgot to give her brains. At this time, such an opportunity is a hot potato.
The Sun family gave up because they saw this.
Just like the Marquis' Mansion now, being leisurely like now is the best way to avoid suspicion, and this opportunity is given to him by Meng Changce specifically, which makes it even more different.
