Li Ye hugged her slender waist, kissed her forehead and said with a smile: "Then come back with me! Start over in this life."
Shen Pearl shook her head, "I don't want to go back to Chang'an. As soon as I arrived in Chang'an, I remembered the misfortune of my husband and son. I was very depressed!"
"What happened to your son?"
"It's an unpleasant story, would you like to hear it, Your Highness?"
"Say it!"
A trace of fear flashed in Shen Pearl's eyes, and she whispered: "I am very grateful to His Highness's medicine for saving Shi'er's life. Although Shi'er became a little stupid, he was still alive after all. It's just that Your Highness didn't know that he gradually changed." He was silent during the day, but became violent and terrifying at night, smashing everything in the room and shouting hysterically. His wife was so frightened that she fled back to her parents' home.
Later, his condition became more and more serious, and the attacks at night became more and more terrifying. I had no choice but to take him back to Wuxing and raised eight strong women to guard him.
After arriving in Wuxing, I asked famous doctors for diagnosis and treatment, but to no avail. At night, he turned into a completely different person. He would bite people when he saw them, howl like a wild beast, and was as terrifying as a demon. Moreover, when he saw a woman, he would Crazy, he even thought about violating me."
"You didn't succeed, did you?" Li Ye asked with a smile.
Shen Zhuzhen rolled her eyes at Li Ye, "How is it possible when there are eight strong women around?"
Li Ye pondered for a moment and said, "He didn't actually die from poison that invaded his heart?"
"no!"
Shen Pearl shook her head, "One night, he broke free from the ropes that tied him, violated the strong woman guarding him, and then strangled the woman to death. During the desperate struggle, the strong woman pulled out a copper hairpin and pierced her. After breaking his heart, I didn't blame the woman and gave her five hundred dollars to comfort her. After all, she had been violated. In fact, he died, which made me feel more magnanimous. I thought he had fallen asleep forever, otherwise sooner or later I would He will be forced to death."
After saying that, she looked at Li Ye a little worriedly, wondering if he would fall out if she told the truth about Shi'er's death.
Li Ye saw her worries, so he smiled and comforted her and said, "Then let's have another child. Treat what happened in the past as a nightmare."
Shen Zhenzhen had hope in her heart again. She put her arms around Li Ye's neck and whispered in his ear: "Your Highness will stay for a few more days. If I am pregnant, I will go to Chang'an to find Your Highness!"
Li Ye regained his strength, turned over, and started his journey to Wushan Yunyu again.
The next day, Li Ye felt unwell and wanted to stay in Shen's house for two more days. Shen Yizhi certainly welcomed this and asked a doctor to diagnose Li Ye. The doctor saw the prescription and said, 'The kidney fire is too strong and coupled with the fatigue from the journey, Just rest for a few more days and there is no need to take medicine.'
In the morning, Shen Yizhi found his youngest daughter Shen Zhenzhu and said to her: "I heard that the prison country only has four wives and concubines, two sons, and too few heirs. Do you think our Shen family has any chance of getting married?"
Last night, Shen Pearl received the rain after a long drought. She felt comfortable and radiant. She thought her father had discovered what happened last night. Her heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to think deeply: "He said that he would consider marrying the Jiangnan gentry. It won support from the Jiangnan gentry, but it didn’t say which one it was?”
Shen Yizhi was overjoyed and said quickly: "Since he lives in the Shen family, this opportunity naturally belongs to us. I want to give Li'er to him. You can tell His Highness for me."
"Li'er?"
Shen Zhenzhu suddenly realized that her father asked her to tell Li Ye, indicating that her father knew what she had done last night.
She said a little unnaturally: "Father, just tell him directly! I said it's not convenient."
Shen Yi straightened his face and said: "Zhenzhu, dad also knows that you have always wanted to have another child. Whether you remarry or in any other way, I understand and will not interfere.
But your personal affairs have nothing to do with the family. The family treats you well, and even conceals Shi'er's affairs for you, which is considered to be the best kindness to you. This opportunity is too rare, and it affects whether the Shen family can be revived again. At this critical moment, you must repay the family. , I hope you understand what I mean and don’t ruin the family’s future for your own selfishness.”
As the head of the family, how could Shen Yizhi not know what happened last night? The unexplained death of the emperor's grandson in the Shen family has always been his biggest fear. Even if the emperor's grandson is now in decline, if someone in the court wants to To deal with him, as long as we hold on to this matter, the Shen family will face disaster.
So her daughter slept with Li Ye last night, and Shen Yizhi breathed a sigh of relief, finally not having to sleep at night.
But Shen Yizhi didn't think that his daughter could become Li Ye's concubine. That was simply unrealistic. Her daughter was a former crown princess, so she could have a child in private, but that was all.
Therefore, Shen Yi insisted on letting the daughter of the Shen family become Li Ye's famous concubine, which was related to the vital interests of the family. He showed no mercy to his daughter at all.
"Dad, let me tell you again. Don't always think that you are still the princess. Everyone must respect you. In fact, that is not the case at all. Your husband's era is over. In fact, everyone does not approve of you bringing Shi'er with you. When I came back, I thought it would bring disaster to the family.
But because you are my daughter, I tried my best to take you in against all the odds. But dad can’t take you in for the rest of your life. If you want to live in the Shen family, you must contribute to the family. Do you understand what I mean? If you don’t do this, If you agree, then dad will no longer be able to keep you."
Shen Zhenzhu felt ashamed and annoyed, and said after a while: "Let me think about it!"
Shen Yizhi stood up and said, "There isn't much time left. You have to give me news this afternoon."
Shen Yi walked straight away, and Shen Pearl was confused for a moment. She understood what her father meant. The matter between her and Li Ye had nothing to do with the family. It was her niece Shen Li who wanted to marry the supervisor, not her.
But she and Shen Li are aunt-nephew! Didn’t father think of this?
But as soon as she thought about it, she suddenly understood that her father actually didn't take her to heart at all. Her father made it very clear that the time when she had been a crown princess had passed. Her husband's family's Tang Dynasty had ended, and everyone was afraid that she would give her to the family. It will bring disaster, so I oppose her coming back.
At this moment, Shen Zhenzhu suddenly became disheartened. It turned out that she was a burden to the family. In her father's heart, she no longer had any status. She was just a widow who lived in her parents' family. Even if she didn't contribute to the family, she would have to Get lost.
The father only has the interests of the family in his heart, and these daughters are just the marriage tools of the family. She was the marriage tool of the previous generation, and it is over. Now it is time to change the marriage tool of the new generation.
Thinking that he had gone to accompany Li Ye so that the family would not be implicated in Shi'er's death, but his father did not appreciate it at all. Instead, he accused himself of not contributing to the family and wanted to drive him away.
Shen Pearl's heart was as sharp as a knife, and she covered her face and cried silently.
At noon, Shen Zhenzhu found Li Ye. Seeing that she was depressed, Li Ye held her in his arms and asked, "What happened?"
Li Ye smiled and said, "How many more days don't you want me to stay?"
"No! I'll go with you tomorrow. In addition, I want to take my niece Shen Li to the capital. We can take your boat and go back to the capital with you, okay?"
Li Ye was overjoyed. Of course he couldn't ask for it. He thought for a while and said, "But I still have to go to Quanzhou, take a boat, and then return to Chang'an."
Shen Zhenzhu said quietly: "I have never been as eager to have another child of my own as I am today."
"What happened?" Li Ye asked in confusion.
"I'll tell you more slowly on the way!"
Shen Zhenzhu took the initiative to kiss Li Ye's face, turned around and left.
