After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

The eldest lady asked her master with red eyes.

"Master, will Zhizheng and my second brother be okay?"

The master was silent.

The others were also silent.

What happened today happened so suddenly.

They had just brought Shen Zhizheng, Shen Jinyao and others back from the border, and before they had even had dinner, two more people left.

The key point is that Shen Maoshan and Shen Zhizheng still went to such a dangerous place.

I lived in the capital before and didn’t think much of it.

After living in Wuhe Village for a few years, I feel that Wuhe Village is more relaxed and free.

Seeing that everyone looked sad, Shen Jinyao said, "Now, we can only wait for news at home."

"We can only think positively."

The eldest lady looked at Shen Jinyao as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"Jin'er, what did General Xiang say to you? What exactly does the Emperor intend this time?"

Since being exiled, I have never heard of anyone's case being overturned.

After all, isn't this equivalent to slapping the emperor in the face?

I have never heard that the exiled families could return to Beijing to report.

Shen Jinyao intuitively felt that it was related to this trip to the Qiang tribe.

After returning, she gave her father the evidence she obtained from the Qiang tribe, but she didn't know whether it could be used.

But she couldn't tell these to the Shen family.

That would only make them more worried.

Shen Jinyao: "General Xiang only told me that the Third Prince and General Xiang were also called back this time. As for why, they didn't know either."

"He also left one of his guards to the Shen family."

Shen Jinyao naturally turned what was left for her into what was left for the Shen family.

When everyone heard that the two were talking about this matter, they couldn't help but feel relieved.

In that case, General Xiang will definitely take care of us along the way.

As for what exactly happened between General Xiang and Shen Jinyao, now is not the time to talk about it.

After hearing this, the eldest lady also said over and over again, "This is the best, this is the best."

Shen Jinyao continued, "Father and his men are riding horses this time, and they're taking the official road. If they keep going, they'll probably arrive in about half a month."

"During this period, we should not go out unless necessary. If I have any news, I will tell everyone as soon as possible."

Third Master Shen Mingshan nodded, "In that case, I will ask the caravan to stop for a while."

Everyone nodded in approval.

The master sighed, "Alright, if that's the case, there's no point in saying anything here. We just had two good days...ah..."

Shen Jinyao wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but apart from empty words of comfort, she really couldn't say anything else.

Now they are the passive party.

"No matter what happens, we will always be together."

Shen Zhixue: "Big sister is right."

Shen Zhixin: "Let's find a solution together."

Shen Zhiye: "Count me in."

Of course Shen Leyao would not fall behind, "And me."

Shen Zhixue looked at Shen Congshan solemnly, "Uncle, we have grown up. If you need anything, we will come."

"Correct!"

Shen Jinyao was very pleased.

After hearing this, several adults in the Shen family also had tears in their eyes.

Even if they are still worried now, they no longer show it.

Shen Congshan laughed out loud, "Great! They are all good sons of my Shen family!"

Shen Mingshan also smiled with great satisfaction.

It’s great that the kids are growing up.

After everyone had left, the second wife kept Shen Jinyao.

"Jin'er, mother wants to do something for you."

Shen Jinyao: "Mother, you said, there is nothing that cannot be discussed between us mother and daughter."

"But you're still worried about your father?"

The Second Madam shook her head, "Your father and his people's problems can't be solved by worrying about them."

Shen Jinyao nodded, that's good.

"I just don't understand, you and that General Xiang..."

Shen Jinyao was puzzled, "Me and General Xiang?"

Seeing that her daughter seemed to be confused, the second wife pulled her aside and continued talking.

"Today, I see that General Xiang treats you differently. He's worried about people gossiping about you, and he wants to protect you."

"Is he..."

Shen Jinyao was silent.

It's not that she hasn't thought about it at all, but every time she just thinks about it casually and then moves on to other things.

"Mother……"

The Second Lady naturally understood Shen Jinyao's doubts. It seemed that it was very likely that General Xiang was just wishful thinking.

"Jin'er, mother didn't mean anything else. Since there's nothing between you and General Xiang, then it's nothing. It's just because of the Shen family's affairs that I've delayed you."

The second wife couldn't help but choke up when she said this.

At that time, Shen Jinyao was going to marry Xiang Hongxuan, but unexpectedly, at this juncture, the Shen family was confiscated and exiled.

Immediately afterwards, the Xiang family broke off the engagement, and the whole family was exiled to this barren place, where they stayed for nearly five years.

She has watched Jin'er grow from thirteen to almost eighteen now.

Oh...what should I do about her marriage?

Shen Jinyao naturally understood the guilt in the Second Madam's heart, but she didn't have to get married.

She put her arm around the second lady's shoulders and chuckled.

"Mother, don't blame yourself. This is all fate. Besides, even if I don't get married, I can support myself."

The second wife widened her eyes. Not getting married?

"Mother, if there's no suitable one, forcing me to marry will definitely not work. Let's just wait and see what fate has in store for us."

Shen Jinyao knew that if she really said she would not get married, her whole family would find it difficult to accept.

It can't help but be laid out and infiltrated bit by bit.

When the Shen family is stable, she can leave the Shen family.

"Mother, please don't worry about me. General Xiang is a good man, but don't forget that we are no longer engaged."

Since the Shen family can break off the engagement, they naturally will not agree to marry her again.

"You should worry about Zhixin."

"Zhixin? It's still early for Zhixin."

"I think he and Lanlan get along very well."

"Really?"

……

When Shen Jinyao finally came out of the second wife's room, she saw a man standing in front of her door.

She thought that must be the shadow that Xiang Hongxuan mentioned.

"Miss Shen."

Shen Jinyao nodded.

"When you have nothing to do, just find a place to stay. I'll call you if there's anything."

Shadow said yes, but didn't go far.

After all, the master has told us not to leave his side.

Shen Jinyao returned to her room and wrote down the current situation on a piece of paper.

Your Majesty, the Third Prince.

Shen Jinyao suddenly remembered that there was an eldest prince.

I wonder if the eldest prince has also returned to the palace?

Could it be that the emperor would be so foolish as to use the eldest prince to deal with the third prince?

In fact, the third prince could have risen up in rebellion now, but he was just worried about the people's sentiment.

If possible, who would be willing to bear the charge of murdering their father?

At this moment, the eldest prince, who was being talked about by Shen Jinyao, sneezed loudly.

"Aqiu!"

Although the woman beside him was a little disgusted, she still asked with concern: "Prince, are you okay?"

What could a sneeze do?

But the eldest prince looked miserable, "Ting'er, I don't feel well."

After listening to this, Shen Tingyao touched his forehead.

Not hot.

It turns out that Shen Tingyao, who had been missing for a long time, was actually with the eldest prince.
