Chapter 264 Kneeling and begging to cancel the marriage
Shen Ning didn't know his rich thoughts and wondered if he also needed to stock up on food, medicinal materials, etc. for emergencies.
His disease can be cured this winter, and it won't matter if he gets the divorce letter. It's time to make plans for himself.
Even though it’s still summer, winter is actually just a few months away from autumn, just in the blink of an eye.
Shen Ning thought about it, money was useless in his hands, he had to buy some real estate.
I had neither time nor experience, so I just made an appointment for tea and chat with the eldest princess, so I naturally mentioned this matter.
The eldest princess knew that she was rich, "Minyun is getting better and better, and her personality is becoming more and more cheerful. The two old guys from the Huo family are partial. They haven't made any plans for Minyun in these years. I want to buy some properties for her, and I have asked the housekeeper to We're doing it. If you're not free, I'll ask the butler to add you one."
Despite his noble status as a royal family, he seemed to have enough food and clothing but could not decide on his marriage. Minyun had already reached the age when he was ready to talk about marriage, but was delayed due to his illness. Now that he has been cured of his illness, he might be granted a marriage by the emperor one day.
The eldest princess made two plans. On the one hand, she was secretly looking for a suitable man. It would be best if he could be in love with each other. If she really didn't like him, she could keep it ready. If the marriage offer didn't work, she could use it as a guarantee.
Gold, silver, jewelry, jade ornaments and other dead things are easy to find. She wants to buy a manor, fertile land, and shops, which can be rented out or hired to run them. Making money from money will not be a problem.
The Huo family is ruthless and ungrateful, but she only has Min Yun as her daughter, so she has to take care of things for her. Even if she leaves her in the future, she will still have the capital to settle down and live.
"If you want it, I'll ask the butler to prepare an extra copy."
Shen Ning was overjoyed, "I want it, it's troublesome."
I believe in the eldest princess’s vision, she can’t make a wrong choice.
Treating each other as friends, Shen Ning spoke directly, "It will cost a lot of money to buy Minyun's property, will you pay for it all?"
The eldest princess has long lost face, "How can I make things easier for the Huo family? I ask Huo Tingyuan for it."
Huo Tingyuan was very happy and gave him a lot of money.
The princess was very surprised. The Huo family's property was in the hands of two immortals. She didn't know where they got so much money.
The more you give, it means you pay attention to Minyun, and she is in a good mood.
While chatting over the water, Shen Rou was naturally mentioned.
The patriarchal society is harsh on women, and even though the heroine is the victim, the harsh words are heard endlessly.
"The prince is quite an infatuated person. Even if your sister was molested by He Lu in the street, he still refused to break off the engagement. He was scolded by the emperor and is now banned from the mansion."
Shen Ning pretended to be surprised, "Didn't my father propose to break off the engagement and the emperor would not agree because of his old friendship?"
The eldest princess smiled meaningfully, "If this matter falls on other princes, there may be room for maneuver, but Xiao Junjun is the crown prince and will inherit the throne in the future. His status will never allow him to have a wife whose reputation is damaged.
Even if he doesn't mind, the royal family members can't pass the test, let alone those stubborn courtiers, and the emperor's profound righteousness is only for others to see."
"As a result, the Shen family will no longer be related to the emperor?"
"They are all foxes of thousands of years. The position of the Crown Princess has been lost. But they are fighting for other positions. They are hanging around in private. As long as they can help the Crown Prince to ascend to the throne, they will be rewarded based on their merits."
The eldest princess looked sarcastic, "First she sought death at home and then she knelt down outside the prince's residence to demand an annulment of the engagement. She has more evil intentions than a hornet's nest."
Shen Ning sneered in her heart, the heroine was good at moral kidnapping, and if she wanted to win the sympathy and affection of the hero through suffering, it would be up to God to give her this opportunity.
"A Ning, He Lu has learned from the past, so you should be more careful." The eldest princess reminded: "The identity of King Jin is no longer what it used to be. He has become a threat to the princes, and he has repeatedly taken action and cannot hide his clumsiness. If someone with bad intentions takes advantage of it, If you use the same method, you will be in trouble.
"Princess Xie is concerned." She recently discovered the presence of secret guards. They were probably arranged by Xiao Weijing for personal protection. "He Lu is so bold. I wonder what will happen to him?"
"He is already dead." The eldest princess said in shock, "The emperor gave me poisonous wine last night."
The death of He Lu alone was not enough to quell the emperor's anger. The He family supported the emperor in the past, but now they are suspected of interfering in politics. How could the person in the palace miss the opportunity to suppress him?
Shen Ning lamented that the two families were fighting to the death, and how dare the emperor reap the benefits.
…
The eldest princess's words came true. After He Lu was given death, the emperor demoted the He family from marquis to viscount on the grounds that the He family was poorly disciplined.
The queen had a convulsion, and no matter how hard she begged, the emperor remained indifferent.
The grounded Xiao Junjun not only hated He Lu, but also felt sorry for Shen Rou as she knelt outside and begged to break off the engagement.
He had loved Shen Rou for a long time, so how could he agree to break off the engagement? The position of Crown Princess was reserved for her.
However, he didn't say it.
In front of all the courtiers, Shen Huairen knelt down and begged to cancel the marriage for the third time.
The emperor was helpless and finally agreed to break off the engagement. In order to compensate the Shen family, he gave Shen Hengzhi a promotion. At the same time, he promised to find a suitable marriage for Shen Rou and also had many gifts from the emperor, which was enough for the Shen family. face.
As soon as the news came out, many powerful families closed their doors and cursed their mother. They hoped that the emperor would not be too black-hearted and would never marry Shen Rou, who had lost her reputation, to their unmarried son.
Some families were happy and some were sad. The one who was most hurt was Xiao Junjun. Not only was his marriage gone, but his uncle's family was also ruined. Two groups of supporters were suddenly lost.
The mother clan lost power and was neglected by the emperor. The queen's life in the palace was not easy.
The situation has quietly changed, and more and more people have a wait-and-see attitude towards Xiaojun County.
After the halo of Internet celebrity faded away, Shen Ning breathed a sigh of relief and resumed his leisurely life.
During this period, I visited several shops. Huang Guanjia from Princess Princess Mansion was very reliable. The shops were very good regardless of their location, but the prices were a bit expensive.
Shen Ning visited stores in similar areas, and the final prices were almost the same. The three shops spent just over 10,000 taels. At the same time, she rewarded Butler Huang with 100 taels, and will continue to help her keep an eye on the big houses in the future.
The manor also existed, fifty miles away from the east city gate, consisting of two tea mountains and a large fish pond. The owner of the manor decided to go south to Yangzhou for development and had no choice but to sell off the property.
Minyun's village is more than thirty miles away in the southeast. The eldest princess thought that the three of them would go on a summer trip to visit the manor one by one, and then go to Maple Leaf Villa under her name to spend the summer.
Shen Ning thought about going on an outing for a few days, but Xiao Weijing's detoxification could not be delayed, so he could only refuse with regret.
Thinking of going back and forth in one day, I took Pang Xingxiu, Zhuqing and Shiyi to set off early...
