Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 91

Murong Yu originally wanted to go to the Empress Dowager's Yongning Palace, but at this moment, Yunnan Sheng stood up to stop him, "Your Majesty."

The Emperor's high regard for the Yun family made them uneasy.

The emperor wouldn't suddenly elevate them without a reason. If they were to quarrel with the empress dowager at this time, he might put their daughter and wife on the spot for a trial.

Murong Yu said, "Minister Yun, don't worry. Today, it's not just Madam Yun and Miss Yun who are the guests."

Princess Qin, as well as the Prime Minister's wife and others, were all invited. He had already considered this, otherwise he wouldn't have sent someone to invite them.

"However, since the Empress Dowager and Lady Liuyun are dining at Yongning Palace, let them go with her!" Murong Yu realized he had been too hasty when he saw the Empress Dowager's concerns.

After having their meal in the palace, they gathered at the palace gate.

"Father-in-law, Mother-in-law."

Shen Yue waited at the palace gate, and as soon as they came out, he immediately stepped forward to pay his respects. He was dressed in a brocade robe with a long, smoky gray fur coat, exuding extraordinary nobility, but his eyes and brows were full of coldness.

"Hmph!" Yun Sheng's smile froze, and his expression immediately turned sour. "I, Yun, am not worthy of being called your father-in-law, Lord Marquis."

Madam Yun wanted nothing more than to slap him twice. "My lord, please have some self-respect. My daughter has already divorced you. Tomorrow we will go to the Marquis's residence to bring back her dowry."

Shen Yue looked up at Yun Xiyue. It had been almost half a month since they last met, and at first glance it felt like a lifetime had passed, as if they hadn't seen each other for several years.

"Moon, can't you give me a chance?"

Only now did he understand why his grandfather insisted that he marry her.

Unfortunately, he realized it too late, and he doesn't know if she would still be willing to give him another chance.

"Lord Shen, I've already given you the letter of divorce. Let's part amicably. Your Shen family has a lot of influence in the capital, so don't make things too ugly."

“It won’t do you any good,” Yun Xiyue said coldly.

Shen Yue looked at Yun's father and mother, then knelt down. "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, Yue'er and I will not divorce. I didn't cherish her in the past. From today onwards, I will cherish her with my life. Please believe me this once, okay?"

Yunnan Sheng and Madam Yun were stunned. They were quite satisfied with this son-in-law at first. He was handsome, talented, and skilled in both literature and martial arts. Five years later, he had made outstanding military achievements. If it weren't for his affair with the Southern Qiang princess, which aroused the emperor's suspicion, he would definitely be the rising star he is today.

This attempt to salvage the marital bond with his daughter now doesn't seem like acting.

“Father, Mother…” Yun Xiyue was afraid that her parents would soften their hearts. “I don’t want to go back to the Shen family, nor do I want to marry him.”

She didn't have that many lives. The despair, pain, and ruthlessness of men in her past life were still vivid in her mind.

It pains her to think about it.

"Yue'er..." Seeing that her complexion was very bad, Yun Xiaohan quickly picked her up and carried her. "Father and Mother, Yue'er is not feeling well. She may have caught a cold. Let's go back first!"

The couple immediately became anxious about their daughter, completely ignoring Shen Yue, and helped their daughter into the carriage.

Shen Yue didn't dare to step forward to stop them, but simply followed and escorted them back to the Yun residence.

Yun Xiaohan hated it as soon as he saw it. "Father, Mother, don't be fooled by his sweet words. If this man really cherished Yue'er, he wouldn't have done such a shameless thing to hurt her."

There are still many things that Yunnan Sheng and his group don't know.

Hearing Yun Xiaohan angrily say that the Shen family, in order to preserve their wealth and status, gave their daughter to an old eunuch to play with.

The two of them almost coughed up blood and collapsed.

“He wants Yue’er to go back only for money. Don’t you know why they married Yue’er in the first place?” Yun Xiaohan continued.
