The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Zhou Lingyi nodded, then whispered something into the old lady's ear.

After hearing this, the old lady's frown relaxed and her expression became a little more relaxed.

Zhou Lingyi finished speaking, fearing that the old lady might be unhappy, and said, "Time is really pressing, Your Highness had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"His Highness said that if Grandmother is bothered, we can change our plans and find another opportunity."

Upon hearing this, the old lady waved her hand, a smile on her lips, and said, "Let's do as His Highness says. My birthday is next month, so you must prepare this birthday gift well."

"Yes." Zhou Lingyi agreed.

After the story was told, the old lady was tired, so she waved her hand and asked Lin and Zhou Lingyi to leave.

It's getting late.

Shen Qionghua returned to the house, tidied up, and then walked towards the main courtyard.

From a distance, she saw Lin Wanru standing at the gate of the courtyard waiting for her.

She walked quickly forward and held Lin Wanru's hand. The evening breeze made her white fingertips red and a little cool.

"Why is mother waiting for me at the door? What if she catches a cold?" Shen Qionghua frowned slightly and said with some concern.

Lin Wanru smiled gently, "Don't worry, Mom is in good health now. Even for you two, Mom will take good care of herself."

Ever since Lin Wanru learned the truth of the matter, she has become much more open-minded.

I no longer spend my days feeling sad about the passing of time and dwelling on the past. Instead, I eat well, sleep well, and take good care of my body.

After a period of time, the effect was very significant. The originally pale face became rosy and the thin figure became rounder, just like when he was in Jiangnan.

Seeing her like this, Shen Qionghua felt much more relieved.

The two of them went into the inner room hand in hand.

As soon as he stepped over the threshold, a young boy as tall as his waist threw himself into Shen Qionghua's arms.

"Sister, you are finally back. Yi missed you so much!"

Shen Yi looked up, a big smile on his chubby little face. The stars seemed to be reflected in his round and clear eyes. His every move showed his dependence on Shen Qionghua.

Shen Qionghua raised a smile and said, "I haven't been in the mansion for a while. Have you been listening to the teacher's words?"

Shen Yi's eyes turned and he said, "Of course, I'm very obedient."

Seeing how shameless he was, Shen Qionghua couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay, stop standing and sit down to eat."

Lin Wanru was very pleased to see that the brother and sister had such a good relationship.

Because Shen Qionghua returned from the palace today and Shen Yi happened to be on leave, Lin Wanru specially ordered someone to prepare a table of food.

Just as Shen Qionghua was about to walk towards the dining table, she saw Shen Yi already standing next to the embroidery stool.

He wrapped his hands with his sleeves, swept them on the embroidery stool, and said in a servile manner: "Sister, you must be tired, please sit down."

He helped Shen Qionghua sit down, then quickly picked up the serving chopsticks beside him, picked up Shen Qionghua's favorite dish, and put it into her bowl.

"Sister, you have worked hard recently. Eat more delicious food to replenish your energy." Shen Yi said flatteringly.

Seeing him like this, Shen Qionghua knew that he had something to ask for.

It has been like this since he was a child.

Every time he did something wrong and his father wanted to punish him, he would act like this to please himself and ask himself to plead for him.

Or if he wants something and his parents don't allow him, he will come to me and beg me to buy it for him.

Over time, Shen Qionghua became aware of all his actions.

"Tell me, what happened this time?" Shen Qionghua glanced at him.

Shen Yi smiled ingratiatingly, clasped his hands together, and praised: "Sister, you are worthy of being my sister. We are so in tune with each other."

"If you have something to say, please tell me now. I'm having lunch now and I won't wait for you later."

As Shen Qionghua spoke, she picked up her chopsticks and prepared to eat.

"Hey, wait a minute." Shen Yi pulled Shen Qionghua's sleeve and said, "Brother does have something I want to ask you, sister."

As Shen Yi spoke, he secretly looked up in the direction of Lin Wanru.

He said nervously, "Sister, can you hire a martial arts master for me?"

"I don't want to study anymore. I want to learn martial arts."

As soon as he said this, there was a bang and Lin Wanru's chopsticks fell on the table.

Shen Qionghua looked up and saw that her mother, who had been so gentle just now, was now full of anger.

She said angrily, "I've told you so many times, study hard and don't think about those trivial things."

Lin Wanru was very angry. During this period, whenever Shen Yi was free, he would come to the main courtyard to look for her.

He said he didn't want to study, but wanted to learn martial arts, become a general, and fight on the battlefield in the future.

How could she agree!

When my husband was alive, what he hoped most was that Ayi could pass the imperial examinations, change the fortunes of the Shen family, and support Hua Jie'er in the future.

Now that her husband is gone, she must urge Ayi to fulfill her husband's last wish.

She had already thought it through. When the three of them, mother and son, escaped from the Yongning Marquis Mansion in the future, they would find a well-educated teacher to teach Ayi.

This child is obviously very smart, but he just refuses to study and insists on learning martial arts.

He is the only male left in the Shen family. If he goes to the battlefield and something happens to him, how will she have the face to see her husband in the future?

The more Lin Wanru thought about it, the angrier she became. She said to Shen Yi, "Don't eat tonight. Go back to your room and reflect on your mistakes. When you've figured it out and are willing to study hard, you can have dinner."

Shen Yi had a stern face, turned around and walked away without begging for mercy.

As he walked, he angrily said, "If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I'm not hungry!"

After he left, Lin Wanru's eyes sparkled with tears. She choked up and said, "What a sin I have committed! How could he be so disobedient!"

Shen Qionghua sighed, put her hand on Lin Wanru's shoulder, and comforted her: "Ayi is still young. The more we try to stop him, the more he wants to do it."

"Why not just go along with him and ask a martial arts master to teach him? Maybe he won't be so persistent then."

"Besides, practicing martial arts can also improve your health. You don't necessarily need to join the army in the future. Whether you can learn it or not is another matter."

Shen Qionghua tried to persuade her gently, but Lin Wanru, who was always gentle and indecisive, was particularly tough on this matter.

Lin Wanru sneered and said, "Look at his appearance. Even if he doesn't learn martial arts, he'll be so angry that he'll tear the roof off the house. If he really learns martial arts, can I still control him?"

"I'm afraid he will just abandon us, mother and daughter, and secretly run off to join the army."

When Shen Qionghua heard this, he touched his nose and smiled bitterly in his heart.

This is indeed possible given Ayi's temperament.

"Forget it, let's not talk about him. Let's eat." Lin Wanru calmed down and picked up the chopsticks to pick up some food for Shen Qionghua.

The mother and daughter were having their meal, but they didn't know that Shen Yi, who had left the main courtyard, did not return to the house, but walked to the corner of an abandoned courtyard.

He pulled aside the weeds, crawled out of the hole, and disappeared into the night.
