The prince can read minds! I just want to be a princess and have a bad time

"Master Chen, have you ever thought about this? Even if what happened today was not arranged by her and you just want to take responsibility, is she really willing to be a merchant's wife? She was originally the daughter of the Earl's Mansion, but after marrying you, a merchant's wife is a commoner and has to bow to officials. How long do you think she can endure this gap in status?"

Seeing that Master Chen looked at a loss, Shen Yu didn't mind speaking more bluntly, "Hey! I don't know who instigated you to discuss marriage in the first place. This is obviously a trap for you. Besides... with this premise, can you guarantee that she will treat your daughter well? You must understand that after you marry her, she will be the stepmother. You are handing your daughter's life and future over to her hands. Are you afraid?"

"That's right! Daddy, do you want to kill me?" Princess Zhuo is so awesome! !

It's a very vicious move by Shen Yu, as he hit the snake at its most vulnerable part. He didn't leave any room for Xue Zhenzhen at all.

Indeed, he was afraid! Mr. Chen's heart was in turmoil at the moment, and his face, which was always known for its calmness, was also in deep hesitation. He could ignore his own safety, and even the rise and fall of his family to fulfill his promise, but his daughter was the softest part of his heart, and no one could hurt her.

He glanced at Xue Zhenzhen and saw that there seemed to be anger burning in her eyes. Behind the flames, there was endless resentment and determination. He originally just thought that her experience today was sympathetic and that it was normal for her to have some resentment, but after listening to Princess Zhuo's analysis, he was shaken.

What if she spread her anger to her daughter? He couldn't imagine what would happen if he handed his daughter, who depended on him for life, to such a stepmother...

"Princess Zhuo! Why are you so aggressive?" Seeing the situation in front of him, Lord Cheng En had to hold on to Master Chen. "They were originally in love with each other. Today, they were just attacked by someone. Please don't bother your princess to worry about our family affairs!"

"Zhenzhen is my treasure. Since the two of them love each other and have had physical contact today, let's choose a day to hold the wedding!" The Queen Mother wanted to settle the matter. The Chen family is one of the top three richest families in Luocheng. If she can bring him to her side, she will never lack money in the future.

The emperor frowned. Why did the queen mother join in the fun? According to Chen Yuyou's contribution to the new grain, it would not be too much to be awarded a baron or viscount. But if he was willing to exchange his merits for Xue Zhenzhen, he could skip the reward.

But if the Queen Mother forced the marriage, and it was to such a shameless woman... Haha! That would be the Queen Mother mistreating the meritorious officials of the court, and he was also happy to hear it, "Mr. Chen, I originally wanted to grant you the status of Viscount, have you thought about it?"

This statement put both the Chen and Xue families in a difficult position. Chen Yuyou remembered his daughter's opposition and now he has lost interest in marrying Xue Zhenzhen. However, Cheng Enbo did not expect that the Emperor would openly oppose the Queen Mother, so he did not dare to offend either side.

Seeing that her father had been silent, Chen Leyi gritted her teeth and could only speak up herself, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my father is not in love with her, and they have no private contact. The previous marriage was only because my grandfather owed Master Bai a favor, so when Aunt Bai came to ask my father to marry Miss Xue, he had no way to refuse. But when the Xue family said that my father was a widower and clearly refused the marriage, the favor was repaid, so now there is no debt between our two families!"

Shen Yu was very surprised. This little girl is really brave! !

Once this matter was exposed, the nature of the matter changed. Everyone present could not help but have conspiracy theories. A concubine came to the door in person to threaten a merchant widower with favors and asked him to marry the daughter of the Earl's mansion? It seems that Earl Cheng En agreed? Who would abuse their daughter like this? Who would believe that there was no trick?

Xue Zhenzhen was also upset. She had never known about this in her previous life! She had always thought that Chen Yuyou asked for her hand in marriage because he loved her so much. After all, that was what her father and aunt had told her.

Later, the Chen family fell into poverty and their family distanced themselves from her. She thought she was abandoned because she had lost her value, but now she thinks that this marriage was someone else's plan?

She looked at Chen Yuyou in disbelief. No wonder he kept saying that he was too young and didn’t want to sleep with her. No wonder he treated her coldly because of a word. No wonder he didn’t take a concubine or divorce his wife in his previous life. Was it because of repaying a favor?

The funny thing is that she thought Chen Yuyou loved and hated her, but his daughter's death was too much of a blow to him, and she just happened to run into the gun, and said that sentence, which made him hate her! It turned out that everything was her wishful thinking!

She suddenly felt like all her strength was drained out. She felt like she was still a joke after living two lives! Xue Zhenzhen couldn't accept this blow. Coupled with the drug and the love affair, she fainted!

"My dear girl! What's wrong with you?" Uncle Cheng En looked like a kind father and almost cried.

The Queen Mother was also upset and waved her hand to ask her to take her away.

Seeing the scene in chaos again, the emperor no longer wanted to care about it, but he couldn't let down his meritorious officials, otherwise who would come out to offer treasures in the future? At the same time, he didn't want the queen mother to get help from the Chen Mansion...

Shen Yu saw that he was in a dilemma, and he said, "Your Majesty! Although Xue Zhenzhen wanted to drug me and the prince, we didn't fall for it in the end, and we are also going to return to the north in a few days. This is why Miss Xue took the risk and implicated the innocent Master Chen. It is really too much to ask him to marry such a wife. Besides, isn't he a meritorious official?"

After saying this, she immediately hid behind Lu Yingxing, successfully avoiding the Queen Mother's deadly sight.

The key point is what the Emperor said about secretly dumping Shen Yu and returning to the north. Looking at her expression that showed she wanted to stir up trouble, he knew she had no good intentions. However, he was also happy to see the Queen Mother suffer a setback, so he said, "Princess Zhuo is right! Xue Zhenzhen's crime of murdering Prince Zhuo and Princess Zhuo is unforgivable, but considering the Queen Mother and Chen Qing's family's pleas, and that she is married to Chen Qing's family, she will be brought into the Chen Mansion as a concubine, and her position will not be raised..."

"What!! Auntie?" This time, Cheng Enbo really wanted to cry. He took a deep breath and that was it.

But the emperor still thought it was not enough, and continued, "Xue Zhenzhen of the Xue family is not a good wife, and has brought trouble to the meritorious officials of the court. From now on, she will be punished to copy the "Female Commandments" at home 5,000 times. When you finish copying, you will become a concubine! In addition, Chen Yuyou has made great contributions by donating grain, but today he has suffered this unprovoked disaster. I specially grant him the title of Yong'an Earl, but he has no fiefdom or fiefdom, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation. I hope that the new grain you contributed this time can bring eternal peace to the Linyue Kingdom!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Shen Yu took the lead in kneeling down. The emperor was very supportive this time, and he didn't mind building up momentum for him.

Not only did he slap the Queen Mother in the face, but he also prevented the little girl from falling into the hands of the stepmother. He also raised the Chen family to the same position as the Xue family. After disgusting them, he could also show that he treated people with merit well. The most amazing thing is that Xue Zhenzhen was promoted to a concubine, but she couldn't be promoted? Hahaha, this black-hearted emperor was considerate enough to leave her room. If she didn't want to marry, she could just copy "Nu Jie" for the rest of her life! If she wanted to marry, she could copy it five thousand times for at least a few years. By then, her hands would be crippled. Then she would marry and be a concubine for the rest of her life?

Watching the emperor and his entourage leave in a grand manner, Shen Yu once again confirmed that these ancient people were really black-hearted! But it was really a relief!
