"This rebellious son! He's been threatening to die all day and can't find peace, and now he's saying it's related to me?! I want to see how he's related!"

Shen Ting'an is a tall and strong man with a majestic green beard, a broad chest and eyebrows as black as lacquer. He has an aura of majesty that no one can match!

Seeing Lord Shen coming up, Lu Xiao and others made way.

Shen Ting'an walked into Shen Yuanci's room, bowed to Song Wu, and then sat down on a chair with great dignity. "It is an honor for the Shen family that the princess has come in person! This is not the first time that my son has tried to commit suicide. It is a blessing for him to have the princess's care!"

"But I don't understand. I just told you that the princess said that my son's suicide was caused by me. What does this mean?"

Song Wu sat in the main seat to the left of Shen Ting'an: "Sir Shen, do you usually spend much time with the young master?"

Shen Ting'an frowned: "He and Xingcan have been raised together since they were young, how could they not get along well?"

Song Wu nodded: "Then Lord Shen, do you think the young master treats you well?"

"I don't think he's anything special! The other noble sons are all the same as him!"

Song Wu took a sip of tea, his eyes flickering slightly: "It seems that here with Lord Shen, life is peaceful and tranquil."

Princess Changyang looked at Song Wu with confusion in her eyes.

Indeed, she also felt that apart from being a little strict, there was nothing wrong with her husband!

Before, Yuan Ci had always been extremely irritable when he came back from the yamen every day, which made her cry often. She felt that her son was not as filial as before, and was also alienated from his family.

Shen Ting'an was a military commander after all, and he was always straightforward. He couldn't hold back any longer, "Princess, please speak frankly! No matter what the outcome, I can bear it!"

He was prepared to lose his son.

It's really torture to keep seeking death like this!

Song Wu smiled calmly, "Besides Master Shen, Master Shen has another son, right? But I also say frankly that the prince is destined to have only one son who has the ability to inherit the glory of the Shen family, and that is Shen Yuanci!"

Shen Ting'an's face turned grim.

How did the princess know that he was ready to abandon his legitimate son and train his illegitimate son again?

Do you want him to focus all his attention on saving Yuanci?

Song Wu continued, "And I can also tell the prince that you will not have any more children!"

Shen Ting'an and Princess Changyang turned pale instantly.

Song Wu is right!

They gave up hope of having offspring many years ago!

Shen Ting'an wanted to test Song Wu's depth: "Then can you please tell me, Princess, when did it become my destiny to no longer have children?"

Song Wu stared at him and Princess Changyang carefully and said, "It must have been destined to be childless since fifteen years ago!"

Princess Changyang was so shocked that she stood there in a daze.

They really haven't had any children since fifteen years ago. No matter whether it's Princess Changyang or her concubines, almost every time they get pregnant they have a miscarriage!

Because of this, her husband even had a grudge against her, thinking that she was the one who was secretly obstructing him!

Shen Tingan was even more shocked, his mouth was wide open.

The Shen family finally believed what Song Wu said. Although he did not play by the rules and what he knew was not medical skills but mysterious and occult arts, they had only this one son in their destiny to entrust and rely on, so they had no choice!

Shen Ting'an immediately bowed to Song Wu. "Princess, since you've seen so much, can you also tell why my son is seeking death? Is there any way we can save him?"

Seeing that Shen Ting'an had finally taken up the matter of saving his son, Song Wu said slowly, "Young Master Shen is suffering from a deep depression. This is related to Lord Shen and his position in the Ministry of Personnel!"

Just as Song Wu finished speaking, Shen Ting'an, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly fell to the ground.

"It's actually because of this?!" Shen Ting'an couldn't believe it, his eyes bulged out.

"How many people can have such a blessing as being admitted to the Hanlin Academy and later promoted to the Ministry of Personnel? I don't understand why he repeatedly resigned and even wanted to commit suicide because of this?!"

Song Wu frowned and looked at Shen Ting'an: "So, Master Shen has mentioned this to Lord Shen before, more than once?"

Shen Ting'an didn't care about his face. He slowly sat back down from the ground and quickly told the story.

"Ever since Yuan Ci was promoted and transferred to the Ministry of Personnel a year ago, he's been acting strangely. He's either extremely irritable or depressed!"

"He told me that he doesn't like working in the Ministry of Personnel. Someone here is deliberately making things difficult for him, and there are people watching him all the time. He hopes that I can help put in a few words to him and transfer him back to the Hanlin Academy!"

But Shen Tingan thought that his son was transferred back after being promoted from the seventh rank in the Hanlin Academy to the sixth rank in the Ministry of Personnel, a promotion of four levels in a row. This was such a good thing, and he really had no ambition!

Besides, he is the dignified Shen family, and many people in Beijing would give him some respect when they see him. How could anyone dare to really make things difficult for him?

I'm afraid that my son has studied hard for many years and cannot bear the blow. He thinks that a few words from his superiors or colleagues are directed against him!

Moreover, the people from the Ministry of Personnel were always very kind when they met Shen Tingan, and they had repeatedly said that they would take good care of Shen Yuanci.

In this situation, if Shen Ting'an went to the Ministry of Personnel and asked to transfer his son back to the Hanlin Academy, he would not only offend the Ministry of Personnel, but he would also lose face!

So, even though Shen Yuanci mentioned this matter again and again, Shen Ting'an still refused.

In the end, the father and son argued over this matter several times until they were red in the face.

Song Wu lowered his eyes: "What Mr. Shen said to Master Shen is true!"

She sighed, "Not only did his superiors give him a hard time, but everyone in the Ministry of Personnel bullied him, insulted him, made fun of him, and threatened him!"

"Those people picked on his faults every day. Although there was no physical punishment, the power of their words was so great that he trembled all over at the mere mention of the Ministry of Personnel!"

Shen Ting'an stared at Song Wu anxiously: "Is it really that serious?"

Song Wu nodded. "I just discussed this with Master Shen, and I witnessed those scenes myself. So I'm thinking that Master Shen's entry into the Ministry of Personnel was probably a conspiracy from the very beginning! That person understood your mindset, Master Shen, so they dared to act so recklessly!"

The big net she saw in Shen Yuanci's sea of ​​consciousness just now was full of such pictures.

She couldn't bear to see it.

Shen Yuanci has endured too much and for too long!

She added, "And Master Shen is aware of this matter, but he's despairing that you, Lord Shen, don't believe him when he tells you! His career as an official has come to an end after he joined the Ministry of Personnel! There's absolutely no chance he'll make it out!"

Princess Changyang had already started sobbing softly. She didn't want to hear the whole story anymore, so she immediately grabbed Song Wu and cried.

"Princess, how can we save Yuan Ci? Please tell me how to save him!"

Shen Xingcan didn't care about her face that looked like a cat crying, and hurried to Song Wu's side: "Sister Princess, please save my brother quickly!"

Song Wu looked at Shen Ting'an: "That depends on whether Lord Shen is willing to agree to Mr. Shen's previous request! And as a father, truly understand him and care for him!"

After saying this, Princess Changyang's sobs turned into uncontrollable crying.

Her Yuanci has been able to endure since childhood and bear everything by herself. She has suffered too much grievance!

Growing up under the harsh scolding and whipping of her husband, she always wanted to do her best to get her father's praise.

But until now, there has never been one!

She looked at Shen Tingan helplessly, the despair in her voice almost tearing her apart:

"You never praised him, and you never hugged him since he was little! Do you know how he studied so hard under your whip, in the cold winter, wearing only a single layer of clothing?!"
