Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

Shen Zhenwu's behavior is really disgusting. He actually sent such a gentle and docile daughter to such a poor place like Qingshan Temple. A feeling of dissatisfaction arises spontaneously.

The emperor rebuked him, "Lord Shen, thank goodness you have this beautiful daughter. Otherwise, your second daughter's actions alone would have been enough to make you resign."

Beads of sweat oozed from Shen Zhenwu's forehead. He quickly fell to the ground and apologized profusely: "I have failed to discipline my children properly. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The emperor was worried about frightening Shen Muxue, so he cleared his throat and said in a gentle tone, "Shen Muxue, in view of your contribution to rescuing refugees, I would like to reward you. What do you want?"

This is exactly the moment Shen Muxue has been waiting for.

She kowtowed decisively and replied calmly, "Your Majesty, I do have a wish."

Peng Haiming was quite surprised. Ordinary people would be trembling in fear in front of the emperor, and would never dare to speak out easily. This girl was so brave, no wonder she touched the emperor's heart.

Shen Zhenwu gave her a warning look, as if to signal her to be silent, but Shen Muxue ignored him and said firmly, "It has been sixteen years since my mother passed away, and I have not been able to fulfill my filial duties for a single day. Now, she has left her husband's family and has nowhere to live. I beg Your Majesty to grant permission to move her spirit tablet to Fu'an Temple so that she can be worshipped with incense and offerings. This is a token of my gratitude."

Upon hearing this, the emperor fixed his gaze on Shen Muxue, feeling an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

I thought she would have other requests, but I never expected that such a generous reward would be exchanged for such a simple wish.

However, this seemed to be just like the Shen Muxue he knew, who always did things that were unexpected yet reasonable.

Seeing that the emperor hadn't expressed his opinion for a long time, Shen Zhenwu thought that he was displeased, so he quickly knelt down and apologized: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am ignorant and have said many offensive words.

Fu'an Temple is a royal sacred place, it's not a place where ordinary women can casually set foot..."

"Master Shen, this is wrong."

Peng Haiming quickly interjected, "Mrs. Han was born in a renowned general's mansion, a descendant of a military family, so she's no ordinary woman. Furthermore, His Majesty personally promised Miss Shen the right to choose her own reward, so there's no reason for him to break his promise. Miss Shen's sincerity is truly precious, and since His Majesty hasn't commented yet, why should Lord Shen be so anxious?"

Shen Zhenwu was speechless for a moment.

He quickly made amends: "I have overstepped my bounds, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

But the emperor did not respond to this.

He only said to Shen Muxue, "I agree to this matter. I will also order a venerable monk of high moral character to perform a ritual to pray for Madam Han's soul-relief and blessing for her afterlife."

Shen Muxue's eyes suddenly turned red.

The huge stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

Although everything is as expected, there are still variables until the dust settles.

She can't hold on alone. If she didn't have the courage to risk everything, how could she have persisted until now?

Fortunately, the ending was as expected.

Shen Muxue bowed deeply and said sincerely, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your grace."

Coming out of the palace, Shen Zhenwu looked at Shen Muxue with an indescribable feeling. He had never expected that this was Shen Muxue's only request. At that moment, he felt a mixture of emotions.

He stared at Shen Muxue, whose face was very similar to Han's.

It was so similar that he often vaguely felt that Han's soul resided in this family.

It was precisely because of this similarity that he was unwilling to face this woman. Even though he knew how difficult her life was, he was unwilling to interfere too much.

It was not until this moment that he truly faced his daughter.

In fact, there are also differences between her and Han.

Han is a strong-willed person, but she is good at using softness to overcome hardness. By the time you realize it, the situation is already irreversible.

He wanted to say something but stopped himself when Peng Haiming called him.

Shen Muxue smiled politely and leaned forward slightly.

"Father, your daughter goes first."

Keep her away.

Peng Haiming then said, "Congratulations, Mr. Shen, double happiness!"

Shen Zhenwu was puzzled: "Where does the joy come from?"

Peng Haiming said, "The selection will be held in two months. I hope Miss Shen will prepare carefully. His Majesty has a good impression of her."

what?

Shen Zhenwu understood Peng Haiming's hint.

The whole person was stunned.

A feeling of ecstasy rose in his heart. Could it be that their Shen family would also produce a noble person?

After Shen Muxue returned home, Shen Zhenwu changed his usual behavior and treated Shen Muxue with extreme respect.

Not only did he rebuild her residence, he also provided her with the best food and daily life, and even asked about her well-being several times.

Although both sides understand that this is just superficial.

Seeing this, Jin threw things around in the courtyard, angrily saying, "My daughter is imprisoned in Qingshan Nunnery, and yet she's showing off in the mansion. What kind of magic potion did the master drink? He's doting on her since returning from the palace. Is he going to kick us three out of the house next?"

Nanny Liu comforted her and advised her to remain calm and observe.

Unexpectedly, the next day, the accountant came hurriedly to report that Shen Muxue wanted to count the dowry.

Jin, who had been slumped in her chair sighing, suddenly stood up upon hearing the news and shouted, "Madam Liu, did you hear that? That scumbag cheated me out of the 100,000 taels of silver I'd accumulated over the years. A full 100,000 taels of silver! Now he even has the nerve to ask me for the dowry! Those are all my Yao'er's. No matter who it is, no one can touch them!"

Madam Liu whispered to the accountant, "Go back and tell her that the mistress is not feeling well today and ask her to come back in two days to do the inventory."

The accountant stood there without moving.

Jin was furious: "What are you doing standing there? Get out of here!"

"Madam, don't be angry. Why don't you go and take a look yourself? The master has already agreed."

Upon hearing this, Jin staggered back two steps.

Nanny Liu quickly supported her.

"Madam, you have to hold on now. The Second Young Miss and the Second Young Master are counting on you. You must not fall down."

"Oh, she even brought up the master. If I don't teach her a lesson today, she'll really think I'm easy to bully!"

A chill ran down Jin's face.

She spoke word by word, "Madame Liu, change your clothes!"

Outside the warehouse door, Shen Muxue had been waiting for a long time.

When Jin saw her, she wanted to rush over and tear her apart, but she had to pretend to be magnanimous and said with a fake smile: "Xiaoxue, why are you in such a hurry to bring me a dowry? That's what your mother prepared for you. I won't take it for myself."

Shen Muxue didn't beat around the bush with her: "It's really hard to say. After all, I know your personality and style very well, Jin."

When these words came out, Jin was so angry that she almost smoked.

But she suppressed her anger.

He sneered and counterattacked: "In that case, you can take the dowry. If it doesn't work out, I will find a husband for you as soon as possible. I mentioned this to your father the other day.

I heard that Minister Zhang’s youngest son was not bad either, no worse than the eldest son who was burned to death.”

What a vicious woman.

Minister Zhang's eldest son died in Ling Fan's house. It was privately rumored that this incident was somewhat related to Shen Muxue.

Isn't marrying Shen Muxue to a family like that like sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth?

Relying on her control over Shen Muxue's marriage, Jin deliberately asked, "It seems that Xue'er still needs to count her dowry today?"

Shen Muxue sighed.

This deep courtyard is filled with the flashing of bloodless swords and sabers.

In the past, she might have been afraid.

But now, with a powerful backer behind her, she no longer has any fear!
