Doting on your wife to no end: The evil regent is reborn and is too clingy
Chapter 355 Rare Visitor
"Don't worry, ma'am, everything is fine."
Hua Rong explained Jiang Congrong's situation in detail. Not long after she left yesterday, Jiang Congrong went for a walk in the garden and went to bed early at night.
"You didn't sneak out at night?"
Jiang Congrong thought about going out in the dead of night, but now he couldn't even avoid the patrolling guards in the princess's mansion, not to mention the patrol personnel outside the mansion.
Hua Rong shook her head. "There are guards from the Prince Regent's Palace patrolling outside the Princess's Mansion. If you go out, you will definitely be discovered."
"It's fine if you don't."
Jiang Peirong just hoped that she was just being too suspicious.
The Imperial Hospital sent someone to deliver some documents early in the morning. Jiang Peirong had just finished her simple breakfast and opened a book when Yuezhu came to report that Madam Shen wanted to see her.
"Madam Shen?" Jiang Peirong was unable to react for a moment. "Which Madam Shen?"
Yuezhu replied, "General Shen's wife, Lin."
Yesterday, the wife of the Marquis of Anyuan was punished in public. Lin Huiru was uneasy all night. She was afraid that the Shen family would be implicated, and she was also worried that the Marquis of Anyuan’s mansion would be destroyed.
At that time, the Anyuan Marquis's mansion suffered a series of accidents. Several brothers from my mother's side died one after another. My mother couldn't bear the blow and died. My father was also bedridden at that time and his health was deteriorating.
If something happens to my brother again, the Lin family’s prosperity will be cut off.
Shen Qingyue grew up in her maternal grandfather's Anyuan Mansion. She is closer to the Lin family than the Shen family. Early in the morning, she learned that something happened in Anyuan Mansion and her aunt was beaten and imprisoned, so she clamored to visit her in prison.
As a result, when the carriage arrived there, the Lin residence was surrounded by government officials and no one was allowed to enter or leave. When the people in the prison heard that the visitors were there to see Lin Yao, no matter how much money was offered, the inmates would not accept it.
Not seeing the person, Shen Qingyue cried anxiously and forced Lin Huiru to ask Shen Yangui for mercy.
"She is the regent princess. The whole capital knows that the prince loves her the most. As long as she is willing to let go, my uncle will be fine!"
"Beg her? If it weren't for her, would your uncle be charged with colluding with foreign enemies?"
"What's the point of pursuing these now? Regardless of whether it's her or not, as long as she is willing to let it go, my uncle will be fine! Mother, this matter should be dealt with as soon as possible. Once my uncle enters the capital, it will be too late to think of a solution. Please don't hesitate!"
"Snapped--"
Lin Huiru was already involved in a lot of lawsuits, and in desperation she slapped Shen Qingyue in the face.
The affection for a daughter who was not raised by one's side since childhood will always be less, even if she is one's biological daughter.
She loudly rebuked him, "At the beginning, the imperial decree granted you the marriage, and you were given a huge fortune, but you refused to accept it for the sake of that useless thing from the Zhao family. If you weren't stupid, how could that little bitch be favored? Why would your uncle do this?!"
The slap was full of anger towards Shen Yangui, so it was very heavy.
Shen Qingyue fell to the ground, covering one side of her face. She didn't know whether it was because of pain, grievance, or because something sad happened, but she burst into tears.
She didn't dare and didn't want to argue about the past. She just looked at Lin Huiru and said weakly:
"Mother...are you just going to watch and do nothing to help?"
"Is it because I don't want to save you?"
Isn't it true that Lin Huiru has been living her whole life for her mother's family?
Even though Shen Ting had many faults, ever since she married into the Shen family, his salary and rewards had been in her hands, especially when Old Madam Shen was alive. Over the years, she had given at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to her parents' family, both openly and secretly.
If she had not been generous in the past, the fact that she had caused the Marquis's Mansion to be stripped of its title would be enough to anger heaven and people. How could the Lin family still be united with her?
Just to control the economic lifeline of the Shen family and maintain her status as the mistress, she has regarded Jiang Peirong as a thorn in her side and has been incompatible with her for all these years.
Thinking of the past, Lin Huiru felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have sent people to Yongzhou.
If nothing had happened to the mother and daughter in Yongzhou, they would not have been brought back to Beijing by Shen Ting. He would not have attacked Jiang Peirong's son and would not have become an enemy of Shen Yangui, a cold-blooded and ruthless person.
His parents and brothers were still alive, and the Lin family was still the Marquis of Anyuan. Even if his younger brother made mistakes, his father and brothers would always find a way to solve them, so he would not end up in the situation he is in now.
Lin Huiru sat down dejectedly, "Now that the Queen Mother is gone, even the Emperor can't save the Lin family..."
She was thinking about the people in the world who could save the Lin family. Apart from Shen Yangui, there were only the Regent, Princess Lin'an, and...
Lin Huiru's eyes lit up: And there's Jiang Peirong!
Shen Yangui listens to her mother the most, and her cowardly mother is the most soft-hearted.
Having made up her mind, Lin Huiru immediately ordered someone to drive the car. While waiting, she picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Shen Ting, telling him that Earl Anyuan had been framed and that the Shen family might be implicated, so she asked him to find a solution quickly.
The carriage arrived at Princess Yongjia's Mansion.
She waited outside the mansion for a long time before she got a message: "Master Tidian is not available to see guests, please go back."
Lin Huiru refused to give up. She gave money to the person who made the announcement and begged for mercy, but no one in the Yongjia County Princess's Mansion was willing to accept her offer.
She waited at the door for a long time. People in the Princess's Mansion came and went as usual and no one paid any attention to her.
There was a peddler at the corner of the street who had been carrying his pole back and forth three or four times in the morning. He would stop at the corner to rest and watched this scene from afar. After the carriage left, he followed it all the way to the Shen Mansion.
Shen Qingyue was waiting anxiously at home. When she heard the sound of wheels, she ran out quickly.
"Mother, how is it?"
Lin Huiru got off the carriage, staggered a few steps, and nearly fell. The maidservant who was traveling with her replied angrily: "Madam has been waiting at the gate of the Princess's Mansion for several hours, but Jiang Shi didn't even show up and didn't even spit at us."
Shen Qingyue still held on to a glimmer of hope, "Is he not at home?"
"Yes, I saw Yuzhu seeing the guests off to the door. Jiang Shi deliberately avoided coming out and left our Madam out."
Shen Qingyue helped Lin Huiru into the house and sat her down, poured her a glass of warm water, and ordered someone to prepare food.
"Mother, you have to take care of yourself too. We still have father to look after us."
"Your father? When did that bitch Shen Yangui ever give your father any face? That year in the Plum Garden, she drew a knife on your father in public. You told me that. Have you forgotten it?"
Lin Huiru laughed at her daughter's stupidity. She took a sip of tea and caught a glimpse of the bruises on her daughter's face out of the corner of her eye.
"Mother hit you in a moment of anxiety. Did it hurt?"
Shen Qingyue shook her head. "It's my fault that my daughter can't share her worries and even makes her worry."
Lin Huiru suddenly discovered that her mother's family, which she had relied on, had fallen into decline at some point, and her son, whom she had once been proud of, was no longer reliable. The only person she could rely on was her daughter.
"If it weren't for that little bitch Shen Yangui, you would be married now."
Shen Qingyue lowered her head.
She and Zhao Qizhen, the grandson of Taifu Zhao, were in love with each other, and Zhao Qizhen once intended to come to the Shen family to propose marriage.
But after Plum Garden, the Regent promised Zhao Qizhen's sister Zhao Yirou to Dingxiang Marquis's youngest son, and Zhao Zhoushi did not allow her son to have any contact with Shen Qingyue.
She believed that her daughter had ended up like this not only because of the conspiracy of the wife of the Duke of Dingxiang, but also because the daughter of the Shen family was jealous and difficult to tolerate.
At that time, Zhao Qizhen still refused and resisted.
Later, Marquis Dingxiang participated in the rebellion of the emperor's grandson, which led to the execution of the entire family. Zhao Yirou was not spared. Zhao Qizhen blamed the Regent Prince and his wife and took his anger out on Shen Qingyue, and the two of them broke up.
Last year, the Zhao family married the Hua family of the Honglu Temple. Zhao Qizhen married Hua Shan'er, the daughter of the former Honglu Temple Minister and current Honglu Temple Vice Minister.
Shen Qingyue's marriage finally came to an end.
The next day, a rare guest came to the Shen Mansion.
