The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked
Chapter 45 Li Niang Admits Her Mistake
Pingyang Hou's face had turned as red as liver, and his fists were slightly clenched.
He looked at Shen Shu and said in a deep voice: "Then explain to me why this bracelet is in your room and hidden in such a secluded place?"
Shen Shu's body trembled slightly as she looked at Marquis Pingyang.
"Dad, if you believe in your daughter, someone must have framed her."
She stared at Shen Mi and gritted her teeth and said, "Today is my daughter's coming-of-age ceremony. It was my second sister who put the bracelet in my room herself."
Shen Mi, who was standing aside, put the bracelet into her sleeve with a wronged look on her face.
She was speechless as she looked at Shen Shu, who was already crying bitterly.
She said, "Sister, this bracelet was originally given to you as a coming-of-age gift. Am I going to harm myself just to harm you?"
"If my father hadn't listened to me today and realized that the bracelet was a fake, I would have been beaten to a cripple."
"Do you think I would harm myself in order to harm you?"
"The bracelet was clearly in my room, how could it end up in my sister's room for no reason, and there is a fake in my box?"
She raised her eyes and looked at Pingyang Hou with a face full of grievance.
"Dad, this matter has caused a lot of uproar today. If you don't explain it to your daughter, how will others view her?"
"You think your daughter is a vicious woman who murdered her own sister. By then, her reputation will spread all over Yanjing City. How will you let your daughter live?"
"How will my daughter get married in the future? I don't want to live anymore... woooo." Shen Mi said, and suddenly turned around and was about to crash into a pillar next to her.
Everyone in the hall was horrified. At the critical moment, Shen Yu suddenly rushed over, grabbed Shen Mi's clothes and dragged her over.
"Sister, why are you so stupid!"
"Mi'er!"
Shen Li immediately rushed over and hugged Shen Mi in her arms and comforted her: "Mi'er, sister knows that someone must have framed you in this matter."
"Mi'er has kept her mother's bracelet for many years. Now she is willing to give it to Shu'er as a coming-of-age gift. It is natural that she treats Shu'er sincerely."
She looked up at Pingyang Hou and said, "Father, this matter is probably not simple. Someone wants to take advantage of this coming-of-age ceremony to frame our Mi'er and ruin her reputation."
Lin, who was standing by, never expected that what she had planned with Shen Shu would turn out like this.
Seeing that things were not going well, she walked to Pingyang's side and said with a heavy face, "Master, today is Shu'er's coming-of-age ceremony. These are all matters of the inner house. It would be bad if they were spread out."
"How about we gather the maids, servants, and children together to question them in the evening?"
"What Yue'e said makes sense." Old Madam Shen at the side also spoke.
"The guests are still here. Today is Shu'er's coming-of-age ceremony. We should at least give our children some face."
Marquis Pingyang looked at his two daughters, Shen Shu and Shen Mi, with an angry look on his face, and sighed helplessly.
He said angrily: "Let's do this for now, we'll talk about this tonight."
He walked up to Shen Mi and said calmly, "Mi'er, father knows that you have good intentions. Tonight father will give you an explanation and will not let you suffer any injustice."
Shen Mi bit her lip and nodded. The moment she lowered her head, a satisfied smile appeared in her eyes.
Within a day, the news of this drama in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion will spread throughout the city of Yanjing.
Everyone must have seen clearly what happened.
After the farce ended, most of the guests bid farewell to Marquis Pingyang and Old Madam Shen and left. Only a small number of relatives from the Shen family stayed to drink tea and chat with Old Madam Shen.
The Crown Prince and the King of Qi left the gate of Marquis Pingyang's Mansion and got straight into a carriage.
The prince said: "Today, it is really a good show."
The King of Qi laughed and said, "You can see that the poison was not given by Miss Shen Er?"
The prince narrowed his eyes and sneered, "I think both of them are not easy to deal with."
"I have always had a question in my mind?"
"Prince Rui is in Fanlou, why would he let the Shen family go?"
"What King Rui hates most is people breaking his rules. Logically, Shen Yu should have had his legs broken, but it remains a mystery."
The King of Qi laughed and said, "I heard that Miss Shen was also imprisoned in Fan Tower that day. Could it be that the King of Rui fell in love with her?"
"Impossible." The prince denied it immediately.
"Prince Rui has never been interested in women. I once let a woman test him, but she was killed before she even got close to him. This Miss Shen is even less likely to do that."
But the more he said this, the more confused the prince became. Why did Murong Che let the Shen family go?
If we can follow the clues and find Murong Che's weakness, it will be easy to deal with him.
Until noon, the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the inner courtyard of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
Madam Zhang, the Marquis of Yongchang, brought her precious grandson and some relatives of the Shen family to drink tea and chat with Madam Shen.
Shen Mi sat next to Shen Li and peeled a peanut for her and handed it to her.
"Sister, this is very fragrant, you should try it."
Shen Li took the peanuts and noticed that Zhang Huaian's eyes were on her. Just as she was about to stand up, Shen Mi grabbed her sleeve.
"Sister, you're going back to your room so soon? You don't want to accompany Mi'er to watch the show?"
Shen Li looked up at her and pursed her lips: "Mi'er, you are here to laugh at your sister, I don't want to watch other people's dramas."
She knew that Zhang Huaian and Old Madam Zhang wanted to discuss marriage with Shen Shu today.
Shen Mi smiled and helped her sister sit down.
"Sister, this is not someone else's play, it belongs to Big Brother."
Shen Li was a little confused and looked at Shen Mi.
"Feng Er's play? What kind of play can Feng Er have?"
Shen Mi smiled and said, "Sister, you will know later, it is a good show."
At this moment, Shen Feng, who was sitting next to Shen Yu, stared at Shen Mi with his eyes.
If it weren't for his sister who complained to their father and beat him so hard that he couldn't get out of bed, how could Li Niang take advantage of this time to elope with the pretty boy.
The more Shen Feng thought about it, the angrier he became, and the tighter he gripped the teacup in his hand.
Everyone in the front hall was talking and laughing. Lin looked at Old Madam Zhang and forced a smile.
"Madam, now that Shu'er has reached the age of marriage, it is time for our Shen and Zhang families to get married."
Old Madam Zhang turned her head to look at Zhang Huaian beside her. Zhang Huaian glanced at Shen Li who was sitting opposite her, and then looked away.
He said in a deep voice: "Grandma, my grandson has only been in the court for two years. He has not yet established a firm foothold and has not yet achieved anything. It may not be appropriate for him to start a family now."
"Since we are already engaged, why rush it?"
Grandma, have you forgotten that this year is your grandson's zodiac year?
Madam Zhang frowned slightly, as if she remembered something. She looked at Lin and said calmly, "I forgot that this year is An'er's zodiac year."
"Miss Shen is smart and clever, and is well-known in Yanjing for her talent and virtue. She is gentle, generous and virtuous. If she were to marry into our Zhang family, it would be a blessing for our Zhang family."
"It's just that this is An'er's zodiac year, so the wedding has to be postponed."
Shen Shu, who was standing by, was overjoyed when she heard this.
Zhang Huaian had never looked at her straight in the eye since he came to Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, but she didn't care and had wanted to cancel the engagement a long time ago.
However, it is not appropriate to bring up the matter of canceling the engagement in this situation, so I can only discuss it with Lin in private.
Lin forced an awkward smile on her face: "What the old lady said is true. The prince is now an official at such a young age. He is considered to be young and promising. It is a blessing for him that our Shu'er can marry him."
“Hahahaha… no way.”
Everyone in the front hall was drinking tea and chatting happily, but they didn't notice that at this moment a carriage was slowly heading towards the direction of Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
The carriage stopped steadily in front of the Pingyang Marquis's mansion. A woman covered in blood got off it and knelt in front of the gate with a bang.
"Mrs. Lin of the Marquis of Pingyang Mansion, together with Li Niang, defrauded the former Madam Jiang of her dowry!"
"I, a commoner, Li Niang, admit that my crime is unforgivable and I have come to the Shen residence to confess to the Marquis of Pingyang!"
