Chapter 10: Undercurrents (1)

Shen Qing looked at her mother with some uncertainty, and although her heart was not willing, she still obediently kept her mouth shut.

Although Shen Yue did not understand what was wrong with Shen Miao’s words, she saw Chen Ruoqiu’s nervous expression but also realized what was going on, and stood in place in a disciplined manner, never opening her mouth again.

Shen old lady frowned, although she followed Shen old general for so many years, but do not understand the official circles, vision is limited to the four corners of the sky in the back of the house, where to hear the meaning of Shen Miao’s words. Only feel that Shen Miao today ate the wrong medicine like, repeatedly contradicted, has offended the majesty of her as the head of the family, immediately want to be angry.

“Xiao Wu is right,” Ren Wan Yun smiled and interrupted Old Lady Shen’s upcoming rebuke, “It was originally a misunderstanding, how could this matter in the front hall spread to the backyard? It was all just a coincidence. His Royal Highness Ding Wang has an open mind and will not take the playfulness of children in his eyes. Everything is a misunderstanding, pity our little five, fell into the water and was shocked, really is aggrieved.”

Old Lady Shen opened her mouth, a little dissatisfied with her second daughter-in-law’s sudden interruption. However, Ren Wan Yun’s mother’s family was a well-known merchant family in Ming Qi, and many of her usual expenses were subsidized by this second daughter-in-law, so although she was dissatisfied, she was not willing to offend her. She snorted coldly, but did not continue.

Chen Ruoqiu also realized what happened, busy following Renanyun’s words: ”That’s right, Sister Yue’er, Sister Qing’er, in the future, don’t ever mention what you just said again. It was just that Xiao Wu accidentally fell into the water and happened to be seen by His Highness Ding Wang. There is no coincidence in the world.” She smiled and looked at Shen Miao: “Xiaowu, the old madam is also heartbroken for you, not really angry with you.”

Shen Miao looked at the woman in front of her. Shen Yue looks with Chen Ruoqiu, temperament is also like, Chen Ruoqiu is born from a family of books, the eyebrows are elegant and beautiful, usually walk a road to say a word are gentle and soft, beautiful but not frivolous. Such a bookish flavor of the woman, is also looking at a good match, who knows what happened later….

Later ah, later the Hun emissary requested for a peace marriage, and there was only one princess of the right age in the palace, and that was Wan Yu. Chen Ruoqiu said that Shen Yue was old and that a peace marriage was the way to go, so she volunteered to marry the Huns and make peace. But Shen Yue was not a princess, so Fu Xiuyi enthroned Shen Yue as Princess Yue Ru, so that the peace marriage could be in name only.

But in the end, it was her Wan Yu who got married.

When Wan Yu died on the road to peace, Wan Yu’s Princess Hall was given to Princess Yue Ru. Princess Yue Ru logically accepted everything from Wan Yu.

Her Wan Yu, ah, is not yet sixteen.

Shen Miao closed her eyes, if you say that there is no Chen Ruoqiu’s credit, I am afraid that Chen Ruoqiu himself do not believe. I am afraid that Chen Ruoqiu and Mrs. lintel have already reached an agreement, to watch her think that there is hope, but then their own hope is shattered alive.

Chen Ruoqiu’s smile froze.

Opposite the young girl looked at her, round face, round eyes, round nose, such a face with a timid look, it is very easy to let a person born out of the impression of stupidity and stupidity.

And now it wasn’t. The timid look was somehow gone, replaced by a solemnity. It wasn’t a sudden nervous seriousness, but a solemnity that came from the heart, with a faint sense of distance. For a moment, Chen Ruoqiu suddenly felt that what was in front of her was not the stupid daughter of the big house, but some kind of master in a high position. That kind of sternness that was collected around her made people suddenly shiver.

In the next second, she saw the young girl bend her eyes at her, “I’ll save you the trouble, and Auntie Three thinks, now, that Little Five is right, too, doesn’t she.”
