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

I saw that there was a thin layer of sweat on Shen Yunjin's forehead and his hair was slightly loose.

He suddenly stopped and Shen Yunjin, who was chasing after him, bumped into Xiao Minshen's arms.

"So this is how my concubine likes to throw herself into his arms?"

Shen Yunjin heard anger in Xiao Minshen's words, which were without a trace of emotion.

She simply made up her mind and knelt down, "What did I do wrong? Please enlighten me, Your Majesty."

Xiao Minshen laughed in anger, "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

After saying that, he walked away.

Shen Yunjin patted his knees, stood up from the ground, and slowly followed him out of the palace.

On the second day, the emperor issued an edict to promote Shen Yuanwailang to the position of Lecturer in the Hanlin Academy.

He was promoted from a fifth-rank official to a fourth-rank official in one fell swoop, making him the first person to be promoted across ranks in modern times.

The Shen Mansion suddenly became crowded with people, and dignitaries in the capital all sent in invitations.

One is to make friends with Mr. Shen, and the other is to learn from his experience.

Father Shen ordered people to close the door and announced to the public that he was ill due to the previous editing.

This move won the emperor's praise.

At first, Mr. Shen didn't understand why more than ten people were editing test questions, but only he was promoted several levels?

Later, he sent someone to inquire and found out that the emperor had summoned Shen Yunjin to the palace.

He also realized that he was benefiting from his daughter's help.

The hot sales of examination booklets were no longer a new thing in Beijing.

It turns out that this idea was first proposed by my daughter Shen Yunjin.

But the daughter refused the emperor's reward and gave the opportunity to her old father.

He declined his colleagues' invitation to dinner on the grounds of ill health and returned home early.

He went straight to Aunt Li's yard and saw Aunt Li embroidering under a flower stand.

She looked gentle and virtuous, just as she had been when they first met.

"Master, why are you standing at the door and not coming in?" Aunt Li raised her eyes and saw Father Shen.

She smiled and put down the embroidery in her hands.

"I heard that the master has been promoted. I am here to congratulate him!"

Aunt Li slowly squatted down and saluted. Her slender body did not look like someone who had given birth at all.

The pansy flowers bloomed beautifully above Aunt Li's head.

Father Shen took a few quick steps and helped Aunt Li up.

"Wan'er, you are still so young and beautiful, but I am old."

He looked at Aunt Li's face, which was without a single wrinkle. Her skin was as white as a peeled egg, and even the fine hairs on her face were clearly visible.

"No, the master is at the most attractive age for a man." Aunt Li blushed.

Once you meet Zhou Lang, you will ruin your life. That was what happened to Aunt Li.

It was rare for Mr. Shen to see Aunt Li acting like a little girl. His throat tightened and he took her directly into the house.

Only the pansy petals were left to fall to the ground.

Shen's mother, who was waiting to celebrate with Shen's father in the main room, heard that her husband had gone to Aunt Li's place, and she was so angry that she threw all the bowls and dishes on the table to the ground.

"Bitch, after all these years, you've learned how to hook up with people."

After smashing the bowls and cups, Mother Shen was still not satisfied. She wanted to rush into Aunt Li's yard, drag that bitch out and beat her up.

"Mother, don't be angry. She is just a concubine. After all, you are the mistress. She can't surpass you. There is no need to get angry over her."

Shen Yunchu, who rushed over after hearing the news, quickly pulled his mother away from the debris on the ground.

"Hey, my ancestor, why are you here? Stay away, or you might hurt my precious grandson."

When Shen's mother saw her daughter, she immediately forgot about herself. With a look of concern on her face, she helped Shen Yunchu to the flower hall next door and sat down.

"Mother, my daughter is fine now. Didn't the doctor say so? As long as she doesn't get angry, she can move around a little."

"Besides, I heard that my mother was very angry. It would be wrong for her as a daughter not to even come and see her."

"It's all that bitch's fault!" Shen's mother said gritting her teeth.

"Isn't mother planning to give her a brother? You must not break up with father at this time."

"Besides, Aunt Li is just a concubine. You are my father's legal wife."

"Men like gentle and virtuous women. What's more, now that father has been promoted, you must learn to change the way you get along with father. Otherwise, you will only push father further away."

These are the experiences that Shen Yunchu summed up in his previous life.

In her previous life, although she was a concubine, the title was just a better sounding one than a concubine.

No matter what you do, you can't get past the mistress.

Moreover, no matter what the princess did, as long as it was not too excessive, the prince would always rest in the princess's yard every month.

But these concubines, they look forward to the prince's favor as if they were looking forward to the stars and the moon.

In fact, Mr. Shen treated Mother Shen very well. Apart from Aunt Li, he had no other concubines or maids around him.

Although Shen's mother has a hot-tempered personality, Shen's father tolerates her more out of gratitude for her kindness in the past.

However, if Shen's mother continues to make trouble again and again, there will not be much of this kindness left.

In this life, Shen Yunchu married Zhao Jingyan and only then did she realize that women should be more gentle.

Men always have some male chauvinism, not to mention that Shen's father is an official who is appreciated by the emperor.

"Change? Why should I change? I haven't done anything wrong?" Shen's mother said disdainfully.

Shen Yunchu knew that his mother was just being stubborn.

"Mother, father has been promoted several levels now. If you don't do it for yourself, you should also think about your maternal family."

"Besides, my father is now in the prime of his life, and there are many people who want to marry him as their legal wife."

Seeing that persuasion failed, Shen Yunchu took drastic measures.

She knew that her mother still loved her father, but her father had been tolerant for so many years that she took it for granted.

"Who dares? Even if I die, I will never give up my position as the legal wife."

Mother Shen panicked, but her words were harsh.

"That's it. If you don't change the way you get along with your father, maybe one day your father will be impeached and the emperor will ask him to divorce his wife. Do you think he should do it or not?"

"Also, Aunt Li is just a concubine, you can control her as you please. Just follow your father's wishes. After all, it's been so many years, at most you can just raise a cat or a dog to entertain your father."

"Why bother, being angry and smashing dishes? If this gets to my father's ears, what will he think?"

Shen Yunchu also broke down all the reasons and analyzed them for Shen's mother.

"I was just angry. I prepared a big meal for him and wanted to celebrate with him happily. But not only did he not come, he even went to that bitch's room."

When Shen's mother heard her daughter advising her like this, she felt embarrassed.

"That's because Shen Yunjin contributed a lot to my father's promotion this time."

Shen Yunchu said this reluctantly.
