After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yunjin felt the temperature in the car drop a few degrees.

She almost slapped her mouth a few times, her mouth was flying in front and her brain was chasing behind...

The journey finally reached the palace amidst Shen Yunjin's constant prayers.

"I will get off the car and go in through the side door." Shen Yunjin said to the King of Qi who had been leaning against the wall of the car with his eyes closed.

Xiao Minshen didn't open his eyes, but knocked on the car and said, "Go straight into the mansion."

Fulu murmured a yes outside, and the carriage started moving again.

"Your Highness, this is against the rules." Shen Yunjin felt a little uneasy.

"In the palace, I am the rule." Xiao Minshen said coldly.

Today, the Prince of Qi sent the princess back home, but he left her behind halfway and took the concubine back home.

That would have been fine, but the Prince of Qi also brought his concubine straight into the palace through the main gate.

Shen Yunjin could imagine that Ning Ruyan, the main wife, must have a lot of tricks waiting for her.

Alas, the prince cannot be offended, and the princess is eyeing him covetously. Shen Yunjin lamented for his own life.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Yunjin arrived at Mingyuexuan, the maid beside the princess came to tell her that the princess wanted to see her.

"Kneel down!" As soon as Shen Yunjin walked into the flower hall, he heard the princess's order.

"I pay my respects to the princess." Shen Yunjin walked over and knelt down to pay her respects.

The princess at the top did not call out, but Shen Yunjin sensitively felt an unfriendly gaze looking at her.

"I heard that the prince went to the Shen Mansion specifically to pick you up?" Ning Ruyan asked in a proud voice.

"In reply to your question, Princess, I am not aware of the prince's schedule, but I was also shocked when the prince suddenly appeared in the Shen Mansion."

"You mean, the prince acted on impulse?" Ning Ruyan turned the bracelet on her wrist.

When she returned home today, she was anxious to talk to her mother about something, and she didn't know that the prince had left halfway.

It was not until lunch that my father told me that the prince had something to take care of and had left first.

The mother complained that the King of Qi did not give his daughter face. How could a son-in-law abandon his wife and leave early?

His father also looked puzzled and asked Ning Ruyan if she had done anything to make King Qi unhappy?

Ning Ruyan had no way to defend himself, and his father turned around and scolded his mother.

It is said that a loving mother often spoils her child, and that a child with long hair has little knowledge.

He also said that one should not think that the Prince of Qi would always be out of favor, and that the Emperor had already given the Prince of Qi a task to do.

Ning's mother hurriedly asked what the errand was. Ning's father hesitated for a while before saying that he was an inspector of the Sifu Division.

Ning's mother burst out laughing immediately. How dare she bring up a topic like this, a position even lower than that of a ninth-rank official.

Ning's father scolded Ning's mother for being short-sighted, and then the two started arguing.

Ning Ruyan was unable to persuade him, so she had no choice but to return to the palace early.

As a result, the servants were heard saying that King Qi brought Shen Yunjin into the palace through the main gate.

Ning Ruyan sat at the top, looking at Shen Yunjin who was kneeling below.

She is not as pretty as her, and her family background is not as good as hers. What on earth does the King of Qi value in her?

"I dare not guess what the prince is thinking. I only know that the prince got angry as soon as he arrived and almost strangled my sister to death..."

At this time, Siqin said something in Ning Ruyan's ear, and Ning Ruyan nodded.

It turned out that the coachman who sent Shen Yunjin away told Siqin what happened in the Shen Mansion.

Ning Ruyan saw that Shen Yunjin was not lying and couldn't help but think about it.

It might not be that the Prince of Qi was dissatisfied with the assignment given by the Emperor, so he deliberately behaved like that in front of his father?

He wanted to take advantage of his father's love for her and ask his father to ask the emperor for a better job.

Ning Ruyan felt that this must be the case, so she decided to talk to her father about it another day and make sure she didn't let her father fall into the King of Qi's scheme.

"As a concubine, you cannot enter the palace through the main gate. This time you have overstepped your authority. I will punish you by making you copy the "Female Rules" fifty times. Do you accept this?"

Even if it wasn't Shen Yunjin's fault, Ning Ruyan had no intention of letting her go.

Today, her mother told her that she must keep a close eye on the beauties around the prince, especially the concubines.

"I obey your command." Shen Yunjin agreed without hesitation.

For her, copying books is as normal as eating and sleeping.

When Ning Ruyan saw Shen Yunjin leaving with a calm expression, she couldn't help but wonder if her punishment was too light?

However, for her, the most painful thing is writing.

In the past, when I saw my mother punishing her concubines by making them copy books, who wouldn’t have a worried look on her face?

Shen Yunjin returned to her yard, ate a little snack, and prepared to start copying "The Rules for Women".

"It was the prince who didn't let the concubine get off the carriage, so why did the princess punish the master by making him copy books?"

Jinzhi complained as she arranged the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.

Why? Because the two big bosses were unhappy, so she suffered.

Shen Yunjin walked over and said, "Don't worry, don't you know your concubine's abilities?"

Shen Yunjin has loved reading since he was a child, and his father is not a pedantic person.

Shen Yunjin has read all the books in Shen's father's study.

Father Shen even went to find books from other places for Shen Yunjin to read.

Shen Yunjin's calligraphy was also taught by his father.

In order to please his father, Shen Yunjin practiced hard every day.

Not only can she write beautiful small calligraphy with hairpin flowers, but she can also write different fonts with both hands at the same time.

At that time, Shen's father sighed that it was a pity that Shen Yunjin was not a man, otherwise, he would have had a successor.

Unfortunately, all the books in Mr. Shen’s study were not given as dowry.

When Shen Yunjin thought of this, his heart couldn't help but move.

"Has Hongliu come back? If she has, ask her to come over."

Jinzhi responded and went out to look for someone.

Today, Shen Yunjin brought Jinzhi and Hongliu back to her parents' home. She asked Hongliu to go back and talk to her parents and asked her to come back later.

After a while, Jinzhi came in with Hongliu.

"Concubine, are you looking for me?" Hongliu's face was covered with sweat.

Shen Yunjin carefully put down the brush in his hand and looked Hongliu up and down.

"You ran back here? Didn't I tell you not to worry?"

"Concubine, something big happened in the mansion. I was driven back by my father and mother."

Shen Yunjin looked confused. Wasn't she fine when she left?

"After you left, Concubine, the old lady blamed Madam for not raising her daughter properly. Madam immediately rebuked the old lady, saying that the old lady only came because the master was promising. She also listed all the times that the old lady had been mean to the master in the past, and almost made the old lady faint with anger."

"And then?" Shen Yunjin sat down, ate snacks, and asked with interest.

"Then the master slapped his wife and said he wanted to divorce her. His wife refused, and the two of them started fighting."

"When I went out, I saw Anping riding a carriage out."

"Father and mother are fighting, are elder sister and brother-in-law still here?"

"Of course she was there. The eldest lady just cried beside her. As for the son-in-law, he said he didn't say anything the whole time, but his face was very gloomy."

After Hongliu finished speaking, she drank the tea that Jinzhi handed to her in one gulp.
