Chapter 323: Letter of divorce, is there such a good thing?
Shen Ruzhou immediately held down his arm and looked around with a dumbfounded look. After confirming that no one noticed them, he calmly advised: "Brother, don't be impulsive. This is a royal banquet. You must not act recklessly!"
Shen Chumu naturally knew the importance and suppressed his anger. He picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it down in one gulp, his anger still lingering.
"Why did Xiao Chenyan bully you? Tell your brother everything. We will find him later to settle the accounts one by one."
Shen Ruzhou smiled bitterly. The reasons were complicated. The hatred in his past life and this life could not be explained clearly in a few words.
She casually said, "Xiao Chenyan prefers the concubine. I really don't want to get involved in it anymore, so I just want to settle down with Li."
At this point, she sighed helplessly, "Unfortunately, I tried my best, but I couldn't succeed."
"stupid!"
Shen Chumu rubbed her head like she was a child, "Why don't you tell me about this kind of thing? Don't worry, brother will help you."
The depression in Shen Ruzhou's heart immediately disappeared, and he shook the arm holding his brother, "Brother, you just know what I just said. Don't tell your father, I don't want him to worry."
Shen Chumu really hated the iron, and said angrily: "Now I know that I feel sorry for my father. In the past, when I didn't let you get married, who was the one who clamored to sever ties with the family?"
Knowing that he was in the wrong, Shen Ruzhou lowered his head and shouted over and over again, "Brother, good brother! Don't be as knowledgeable as me. My sister knows she is wrong."
After all, she is his biological sister, and thinking of the many grievances she suffered in the palace, Shen Chumu finally softened her heart, "I will help you hide it from your father so that he won't worry. However, you have a plan for how to reconcile with her next." ?"
Shen Ruzhou nodded pretending to be mysterious, "But, I'll explain it in detail to my brother when I get home."
Shen Chumu was very cooperative and didn't ask any more questions. There were many people here, so it's not too much to be careful.
After the scene with Jianing before, Emperor Yong'an managed to drink a few glasses of wine, but found it boring. Everyone had no intention of feasting, so the banquet ended hastily and everyone dispersed.
Shen Ruzhou followed his father and brother out, but was blocked by a palace maid, who bowed respectfully and said, "By the order of Concubine De, please come and have a chat with the princess."
Shen Chumu directly stopped his sister behind him and politely said, "It's too late today. Let Ruzhou go talk to Concubine De at another time."
The palace maid was a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty said that she has something important to discuss with the princess, and she also asked the princess to come over."
Shen Ruzhou patted Shen Chumu on the shoulder and walked out from behind him, "Brother, relax, Concubine De is just talking to me, it's nothing."
"You and your father should go back first. Remember to ask Sister Rulan to make me some late night snacks and sweet-scented osmanthus cake. I was busy talking just now and didn't eat much."
Seeing that her daughter still had something to eat, Shen Mu felt relieved. He just told her to "be careful in everything" and left the palace with Shen Chumu.
Shen Ruzhou followed the palace maid to Concubine De's palace and met the eldest princess as expected.
This Xiao Jinxi made such a big fuss today, yet she didn't know how to restrain herself and acted like a monster again.
Her disdainful expression stung the eldest princess's eyes, and the other party scolded her directly.
"Shen Ruzhou is so ungrateful to you that Jianing loses her innocence!"
Shen Ruzhou pointed at himself with an inexplicable expression, "Me? Is Her Royal Highness the Princess confused? What does Jianing's filthy and chaotic palace have to do with me?"
"Stop trying to deny it!"
The eldest princess's ears hurt at the words "Filthy Palace", and her eyes almost burst into flames.
"If you were willing to agree to Jianing's marriage to your brother and properly set up the relationship, Jianing would not have thought of drugging, let alone the dead eunuch who would have taken advantage of her!"
She pointed angrily at Shen Ruzhou, "It's all your fault. You must be responsible for what happened today!"
Shen Ruzhou heard it funny, Xiao Jinxi was really good at blaming someone, and he could throw a shit basin on her head.
It's a pity that she doesn't accept moral kidnapping.
Shen Ruzhou sneered coldly, full of sarcasm, "It's the fault of a son who doesn't teach his father. No matter what the mistakes Jianing commits, they can't be blamed on me, right?"
The eldest princess looked at Shen Ruzhou condescendingly, arrogant to the extreme, "If you don't help solve this matter, I will let Xiao Chenyan divorce you!"
Shen Ruzhou's eyebrows moved and he didn't want to help anymore.
The eldest princess's idea played into her own hands. She was eager to leave Xiao Chenyan as soon as possible, "I'll divorce you now, but it's a pity that your words may not be effective when it comes to Xiao Chenyan."
"you……"
"OK OK."
Seeing that the two of them were at war with each other, Concubine De hurriedly came out to smooth things over, "Jinxi, please calm down. Let's talk about what you have to say."
"And Ruzhou, we are all a family, and a family should help each other. Jianing is also your niece, how can you bear to watch her get married?"
Concubine De persuaded her earnestly, "If you save her this time, Chen Yan will also be grateful to you. I will treat you well in the future. Otherwise, if you really say what the eldest princess said, you will be divorced and you will regret it."
Shen Ruzhou was silent, why did two people think she could save Jianing?If he really thought she could be saved, he would have just spoken out in Nuange, why wait until now?
Seeing Shen Ruzhou frowning and not saying anything, the eldest princess thought she was being threatened and raised her eyebrows. She sat on the throne with an arrogant tone.
"You treated countless soldiers and people during the plague, and you also stocked up on food in advance. I'm afraid you also did some good deeds of giving out porridge."
"Not to mention the plague, as long as you give all the credit for collecting grain and providing porridge to Jianing, my father will spare her the pain of getting married because of Jianing's meritorious service to the country."
It turned out to be waiting for her here.
Shen Ruzhou flicked his clothes and sat down on the couch, and said calmly: "I did cure the plague and stocked up on food, but I didn't do the porridge work."
"But it doesn't matter. Even if I do it anyway, I will never give all the credit to Jianing and let her enjoy the results!"
"you!"
The eldest princess suddenly became angry and cursed loudly, "Shen Ruzhou, you are so shameless and so ignorant. No wonder Chen Yan doesn't like you!"
Shen Ruzhou sneered and retorted, "You know what's good and what's good, why don't you go and have a kiss?"
How could the eldest princess let Shen Ruzhou see a joke? She straightened her clothes and looked at Shen Ruzhou with a look of righteousness and disdain, "I went to get married for the sake of the righteousness of my family and country. What do you, a rude woman like you, know?"
Concubine De also looked at Shen Ruzhou with dissatisfaction, "Ruzhou, getting married is a glorious thing. It can comfort the ancestors and appease the common people. It is an act of great justice. How can you not respect your imperial sister?"
They can talk about the righteousness of their family and country, and Shen Ruzhou certainly cannot be compared. "Since getting married is so honorable, let's just let Jianing go and get married. Why are you still here trying so hard to get it back?"
"This……"
