Sister Zhen's heart skipped a beat. She had vaguely guessed what her cousin was about to say, but she still couldn't help but ask, "How do you say this?"

Sister Lan then smiled and said: "With your appearance, how can ordinary people tolerate it? Only now can I be so lucky."

Sister Zhen's face suddenly turned red, she was ashamed and angry, and she shouted loudly: "What did you say? It's so disrespectful of ethics."

Sister Lan disagreed and said with a smile: "Don't be impatient, just listen to me and explain slowly. This whole world belongs to the emperor, and you are just one of his thousands of subjects. Whoever he wants among the women in the world is not yours."

It’s a matter of one sentence. No matter how ethical principles are, you are just a queen.

It’s just the niece, what does it have to do with the emperor? It’s not like there are no examples of sisters, aunts and nephews serving a monarch in ancient times. Besides, you are really an outstanding person. Even the queen is much inferior to you. If you can really serve the emperor with all your heart, it will be better.

It’s a sign of your loyalty.”

After all, Sister Zhen is a girl. After hearing this, she felt a little uneasy on her face and turned around to leave: "Don't say these words anymore. Marriage is naturally a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words. I don't want to hear you talk about this anymore."

.”

Sister Lan laughed loudly: "Silly girl, other than the current emperor, do you really think you can marry a good man? The queen is not a kind person. She held a hundred-flower banquet long before you returned to the capital. No one in this capital can get it.

All the decent men have already finalized their marriages. Your good aunt didn't leave one or two for you. Who are you going to marry now? It seems that today is God's will. You are destined to marry into the emperor's family.

of."

Sister Zhen couldn't help but paused: "The queen really hates you and my family so much. Has she considered all this?"

Sister Lan sneered: "So, entering the palace is your only way out. Only if you occupy a place in the emperor's heart can she have some scruples and not dare to blatantly deal with your family. If you can occupy the emperor's entire heart, not only can she

A strong counterattack can even allow your brother to inherit your father's title, and you will not be misunderstood by those mediocre people. This will kill three birds with one stone, why not?"

Sister Zhen couldn't help but picture the future described by her cousin. She could win the heart of such an unparalleled man no matter how beautiful she was. But after all, she was a girl. She still felt a little ashamed.

, then he stamped his feet and said, "It goes without saying, I don't believe you have good intentions for my family, and I won't be fooled by you."

Seeing Sister Zhen walking out of the garden quickly, Sister Lan couldn't help snorting, and she calmly left the hall and returned to her own courtyard.

Just as Sister Zhen was walking around casually with a red face and hot ears, Sister Huan also arrived at the Yongning Marquis Mansion.

When Mrs. Shen got the news, she was stunned at first. She only said that she would let Sister Huan come to her house to play for a day tomorrow, but she must have been talking too much to Sister Huan. Sister Huan was worried about her mother, so she returned without waiting for a moment.

Mansion.

Sure enough, Sister Huan's son entered the house to greet his grandmother, and then directly asked about his mother.

Mrs. Shen did not hide anything from her and told her granddaughter what happened in detail.

After hearing this, Sister Huan couldn't make any comments because of her seniority. But she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that her mother had indeed done a bad job. No matter what grudges the elders had, it shouldn't be involved with the younger ones, let alone the younger ones.

It was to take an innocent life.

Mrs. Shen added: "It's okay with your mother. I'm just worried that your sister will feel bad because of this. Seeing her lose weight day by day, it hurts me a lot. That's why I asked you to come here and get the chance." Open her up and untie her."

After hearing this, Sister Huan stood up and said, "This is natural."

Mrs. Shen glanced at Sister Huan and then said: "I asked someone to call your sister. You should also take this time to see your mother. No matter what she did wrong, she is your mother after all, and you also I advise her not to act too viciously in the future, but also to accumulate some bad virtues for her descendants."

Sister Huan thanked her grandmother gratefully and followed Mrs. Shen's cronies to the ancestral hall.

Sister-in-law Shen has been locked up for these days and has not been allowed to see anyone. Now that she heard that her daughter came to see her, she felt really happy.

As soon as Sister-in-law Shen returned to the Hou Mansion that day, she was accused by everyone. After a lot of troubles, although she succeeded in retreating in order to advance and relieved herself of the crisis of being abandoned, when the matter cooled down, she was horrified to discover that... I was afraid that it would take more than half a year before I had the chance to persuade my daughter to give up her unrealistic thoughts about Zhuang Chengrong.

Thinking of this, her heart was like fetching water from fifteen buckets. She was really worried that her daughter would suffer from this, but no one could help her. As for Mrs. Shen, she did not dare to say a word because She knew that her mother-in-law was partial to Shen Qiujun, so she was afraid that she would send her daughter off to get married indiscriminately to avoid infringing on Shen Qiujun's interests.

After worrying for the past few days, Sister-in-law Shen could only comfort herself: She was being locked up at the moment, and her daughter had always been filial, so she must be worried about her every day, and she would definitely think of going there at some point or another. Furthermore, depending on her mother-in-law's indifference towards her daughter, she would usually Li would not take his daughter with him when he entered the palace for an audience. As a result, his daughter would not have a chance to see the emperor.

However, even though I thought so, I was not at ease at all and was afraid of something unexpected happening. At this time, Sister Huan's visit was like a timely rain, which made Sister Shen overjoyed.

However, Sister-in-law Shen was overjoyed because although Mrs. Shen asked Sister Huan to come to see her, she was deeply afraid that Sister-in-law Shen would confuse Sister Huan with her random words. Sister Huan was also very transparent and knew her grandmother's worries. They just pretended not to know, so when Sister-in-law Shen and her daughter met, they did not scold the servants to leave.

Sister-in-law Shen did not express her heartfelt thoughts to her daughter at this time. After a few words, she earnestly warned: "Your sister is young, if there is anything inappropriate, you, as the sister, must give her a good advice, and don't do it because of it." She reports every little mistake to her elders, as if you can't shoulder the responsibility of a sister."

Of course Sister Huan didn't know what her mother meant, so she just regarded it as an ordinary entrustment and hurriedly responded: "Don't worry, mother, I will take good care of my sister."

Next, Sister-in-law Shen asked Sister Huan a few questions about her family affairs. Mother and daughter had nothing to talk about for a while. Fortunately, Mrs. Shen sent someone to tell Sister Zhen that she had passed away, and asked Sister Huan to hurry over, which solved the problem. The embarrassment between her mother and daughter.

When Sister Huan came to her grandmother's room again, she saw that her sister was also there. At this time, food had been placed in the room, and the three of them were dining together. During this time, Sister Huan mentioned to her grandmother: "My granddaughter is going to come in in two days." I would like to pay my respects to my aunt, but is there anything you can say at home?"

As soon as Sister Zhen heard the word "palace" mentioned, her heart beat a few times for no reason, and her heart and ears became secretly focused.

Mrs. Shen said: "Everything is fine at home, so she doesn't need to worry about it. As for what happened in the house these days, I told her a little bit about it a few days ago. You don't need to mention it again when you go."

Sister Huan nodded, and as soon as the meal was finished, Mrs. Shen excused herself to take a rest and left time for her two sisters.

Sister Huan saw that her sister had indeed lost a lot of weight compared to when she first came to Beijing, and she felt pity in her heart, so she tried to explain it away.

Unexpectedly, my sister is very transparent. Although she is sad that her mother was almost divorced and is still locked up in the ancestral hall, she also knows that what her mother did is indeed a bit excessive. This makes Sister Huan quite happy. .

As for Shen Qiujun's role in it, Sister Zhen didn't mention a word.

This was also her cleverness. First, she thought that her sister must have lived with the Queen in the capital for many years. Now she is afraid that her heart is more towards the Queen. Although she and she are sisters, they have not had any contact with each other for more than ten years. That bit of sisterly love may not be able to compete with the word profit.

Secondly, she was dubious about Sister Lan's words. Although her mother and daughter were indeed left out when she met Shen Qiujun that day, but her mother treated Brother Gui like that, she didn't believe that Sister Lan would be so kind. To plan for yourself, this matter needs to be carefully observed by yourself.

Due to family misfortune, the relationship between the two sisters improved a lot during this heart-to-heart conversation, and Sister Zhen asked about entering the palace.

It turns out that when Shen Qiujun summoned Sister-in-law Shen and his daughter, he was thinking of easing the relationship between them and also to avoid embarrassment, so he also summoned Sister Huan to the palace with her. Unfortunately, it was Sister Huan's mother-in-law who She fell ill for a few days, so Shen Qiujun had no choice but to send the imperial physician. Sister Huan naturally had to take care of her mother-in-law. Now that her mother-in-law has recovered, Sister Huan will go to the palace to express her gratitude.

When Sister Zhen heard about the palace, she remembered that day when the emperor came and unexpectedly requested to go into the palace to meet her aunt. As soon as the words were spoken, she felt a little abrupt and said hurriedly: "Forget it, I'm just curious about the palace. , I also thought about being close to my aunt, but I didn’t expect that this royal family is different from the common people’s family. It’s better to do less than to do more, so my sister doesn’t need to be embarrassed.”

Sister Huan was extremely happy after hearing her sister's request, because it meant that her sister was not influenced by her parents and was willing to get close to her aunt from the bottom of her heart.

In fact, Sister Huan naturally knows very well about the grudges between her parents and her aunt. She also understands what is right and what is wrong. However, as a child, she cannot blame her parents for being too paranoid on this matter. She only hopes that her parents will Seeing that my aunt has become the empress of the world, I bow my head to my aunt for the benefit of the Shen family, and everyone will be happy.

Because she knew that her aunt was a person who valued family ties and bloodlines above all else. Even if she was unwilling to do so, she had to endure it for the sake of the Shen family and her grandparents. Now it seemed that although her father could not completely let go of his body and surrender, it was somewhat effective. Over time, it is hard to say that those old grievances have been resolved.
