Fang had a loving look on her face and gently patted her daughter's back. Seeing her like this, she felt so heartbroken.
Although she had hidden it very well, her hands were still wrapped in thick gauze, and the marks on her neck were not completely covered.
"The prince did say that you fell off your horse and accidentally broke your leg, but what are the scars on your body?"
Fang practiced martial arts, and one could see the marks on her neck were from a whip.
After all, my daughter is a concubine in the palace. Who else would dare to do such a cruel thing?
Who else could it be other than that arrogant, domineering and jealous princess?
Her daughter, also a member of a royal family, was now being beaten like a slave by the princess. How could she swallow this?
"It's a long story, but mother and brother, please rest assured that my daughter is fine now. It's just a flesh wound and will be healed in a few days."
Could she say that she was grateful for the beating?
Now Su Rong doesn’t know where to hide in pain. The pain in her heart must be more painful than the pain in her body.
"Is this still okay? You... why did you suddenly become so opinionated and choose your own husband? If mother were here, she would never let you..."
Fang was not willing to marry her daughter to someone else as a concubine. Even if it was the position of the Prince of Qin's concubine, her daughter would be considered marrying up. But she would rather her daughter marry into an ordinary family and become a wife.
"Mother, it's a done deal. We'd better look forward. You've only been back for a few days, so you may not know our family's current situation. Father is no longer the Supreme Court Minister."
Her mother and brother are the people she trusts the most.
Now that they are all back, they must work together in the future to live the best life and enjoy the wealth and glory together.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at her father with a smile.
Although Shen Wang felt sad to see his daughter injured, he was also relieved with the current situation.
Then he moved closer to his daughter.
"Has the prince been very cold to the princess these days?"
He asked with a mysterious look on his face.
The sound was so quiet that only the few people who were close to them could hear it clearly.
"How did father know?"
Shen Zhishu was a little surprised. Could it be that his father was involved in this?
Shen Wang proudly touched his non-existent beard.
"The prince sent people to investigate the white horse incident, and the investigation led to Prince Shuo. I took advantage of the situation and found an opportunity to have the guards around him find out the relationship between Prince Shuo and the princess..."
He said this smugly.
So, does the prince now know that Su Rong and King Shuo are involved?
Shen Zhishu looked surprised.
I thought it would take some time, but I didn't expect that she would come to me on her own initiative.
"It seems that I am really lucky."
Now she understood why the prince was suddenly so heartless to Su Rong.
Who can tolerate the woman he loves being entangled with his enemy?
"It's a pity that I haven't found out about Ting Hong Lou yet. I'm afraid of being discovered, so I don't dare to do anything too extreme..."
Shen Wang said with a little regret.
"It's always right to be cautious. Father, you are very capable. Let's just hold off from now on. With the princess's character, she will never give up."
Shen Zhishu was certain that once she knew Yan Chu knew all this, there would be a trick up her sleeve.
They just continue to wait.
Shen Wang nodded.
"And the scholar named Zhou Yuan is indeed quite capable. I have arranged for him to work beside me and have also sent people to keep an eye on him. So far, I haven't seen him come into contact with anyone suspicious."
"It will be soon. She can't sit still. Father, keep a close eye on her when you get back."
Even a desperate dog will jump over the wall, let alone the emotionally unstable Su Rong.
She would definitely not let herself have a good life, and she might have originally planned to get rid of her quietly.
But now, Shen Zhishu was certain that she was eager to catch him in bed with her, ruin his reputation, make him a laughing stock in Kyoto, and then kill him in humiliation.
So next, she must be more cautious.
"Mother, when you return to your hometown to visit grandpa this time, can you catch up with your old friends?"
The skills of the maids and servants around her were mediocre.
It is enough to deal with ordinary people, but Su Rong is a female general and is surrounded by many experts. If she wants to protect herself, she must send more experts.
My mother used to be a gangster, so it would be great if I could find a gangster master by my side.
"I'll take care of this matter. I'll send someone over to you later."
This time, without waiting for his mother to speak, his brother Shen Jie understood what she meant.
Shen Zhishu looked at his brother, his eyes smiling into a pair of crescent moons.
"Brother, all the sisters are married, are you planning to get married?"
In his previous life, his brother was a widower until his death, and Shen Zhishu felt very sorry about that.
So even though he is still very young, she is already urging him to get married.
"How old are you to say such things? I will consider it after seeing that you are happy after marriage. Otherwise, what's the point of getting married?"
Shen Jie was really shocked by his sister.
Is it true that she has become bolder after getting married, openly urging him to get married? In the past, whenever these things were mentioned, she would run away with a red face.
I haven't seen her for just two or three months, but I didn't expect that my sister has grown so big.
"Of course I will. Brother, you should find out what kind of girl you like as soon as possible, so that you won't be unable to find a partner when you want to get married in the future."
Shen Zhishu said with a solemn vow.
This made everyone in the family laugh, saying that she was disrespectful and worrying about nothing.
afternoon.
Yan Chu came out of the palace exhausted. He didn't even go back to his own bedroom, but went straight to Wang Academy.
It was just lunch time.
When he went there, there was a rich meal on the table, with a combination of meat and vegetables, totaling eighteen dishes.
Normally, Shen Zhishu would only eat three dishes at most, and the portions were always very small.
Today's rich feast reminded him of himself. Every time he came here, the food was just average.
He thought Shen Zhishu had always been like this.
It turns out that there is still different treatment, but her preference seems to be given to her family.
"Your Majesty."
He was just feeling a little unhappy when he saw Shen Zhishu looking at him, sitting at the dining table, waving at him with a beautiful smile.
He seemed to be bewitched by that smile, and his previous unhappiness disappeared in an instant.
Then when he came to his senses, he was already standing beside her.
"Thank you for telling my family and asking them to come and see me. Your Majesty, you are so kind to me."
Shen Zhishu raised his head and looked at him, expressing his sincere gratitude.
Yan Chu's previous unhappy feeling disappeared completely, and he sat down next to her.
"I heard from the housekeeper that you like crystal dumplings and steamed sea bass, so I asked the kitchen to make them. I just don't know if the cook in my small kitchen can cook them to your taste. Your Highness, please try them."
She used her hands wrapped in thick gauze to pick up food for him, and she held it very steadily. She had an expression as if she was presenting a treasure, and her watery eyes looked at him with anticipation.
It turns out that she even knew to prepare food specially for him, which was not bad.
