Chapter 13 The Shen Family Protects Their Shortcomings
Who could have thought that her little uncle, such a bright and handsome man, was drugged and tricked into breaking into the favorite concubine's tent during the autumn siege a month later, causing the emperor to be furious.
Such a flawless character, like a beautiful jade, died in such a stigma and humiliation in the end.
How could Shen Nanzhi not feel heartbroken.
"Uncle..."
As soon as Shen Nanzhi opened her mouth, tears started rolling down her cheeks.
She has been strong-willed since she was young, and her family spoils her, so she rarely makes mistakes.
However, since her rebirth, she could no longer control her tears.
Seeing her like this, Shen Huaishu's gentle smile froze instantly. He asked nervously, "What happened to Zhizhi? Who bullied our Zhizhi?"
Shen Nanzhi shook his head and forced a smile: "My uncle doesn't even know me, who can bully me? I'm just too happy to see my uncle."
Shen Huaishu reached out and patted Shen Nanzhi's head like he did when they were children, saying lovingly, "Yes, our King Zhizhi is the most powerful."
From childhood to adulthood, Shen Nanzhi has always been the leader among children.
Shen Nanzhi felt a little embarrassed after being praised by him: "Since you know how powerful I am, my mother and I have been back for a few days, and my uncle just came back, so you don't have to worry about me getting angry."
Although Shen Huaishu is the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo, he also holds an office in the Dali Temple. In recent days, the Dali Temple has been extremely busy in order to thoroughly investigate the Jiangbei corruption case. They stayed directly in the back hall of the Dali Temple and even had to keep track of their meals. The fact that they can go home today shows that the case has made great progress.
Shen Nanzhi thought that Xiao Qian'an and Xiao Chuyun were ordered to go to Jiangbei for a secret investigation. When they came back this time, they should have obtained the key evidence and handed it over to the Dali Temple.
Shen Huaishu smiled and said, "I want to come back, but I can't get away."
At this point, Shen Huaishu subconsciously turned his head to look at the direction where the Zhenbei Palace carriage left: "It's strange that the Zhenbei King is willing to stay in our house for two days."
Shen Nanzhi was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Shen Huaishu shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with it. I'm just a little surprised. He has a personality like that. He looks gentle and friendly, but he is also very proud and lonely. It's a bit surprising that he is willing to bow his head and accept help from others. I didn't expect that after returning to Beijing, he not only didn't go back home immediately, but also stayed for two days."
Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but think back to when she asked Xiao Chuyun to stay and recuperate after returning to the Shen Mansion. His expression was always gentle and calm, without any embarrassment or entanglement.
This seems to be somewhat different from what my uncle said about Xiao Chuyun, who is proud, lonely and cold and won't even accept help from others.
Is it because of their Shen family?
Shen Nanzhi didn't have time to think about it, but heard Shen Huaishu say again: "I heard that you had some unpleasantness in the Princess's Mansion?"
Shen Nanzhi didn't expect that he would know it so soon.
However, news in the capital spread quickly.
She was about to explain, but she heard her uncle gently say, "No wonder your eyes were red before, it turns out you really got wronged outside."
Shen Nanzhi was not sure what to say.
She lowered her eyes and said, "My little uncle, don't you blame me for losing the dignity and face of the Zhenguo Mansion?"
Shen Huaishu smiled and said, "Silly girl, although you are stubborn and would rather break than bend, you are very sensible in doing things. It's just that the old lady of the Jiang family has always been protective of your cousin. If there is a quarrel, I am afraid that you and your elder sister will be wronged."
Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi's heart warmed up, and she smiled and said, "With my uncle protecting us, who would dare to hurt us?"
It was just a joke, but Shen Huaishu confirmed it: "Of course."
Of course Shen Nanzhi knew that he was speaking from the heart.
At this time in her previous life, she had already been plotted against by Jiang Yanran. Not only did she return from the Princess's Mansion in a shabby state, but she was also cursed. Her uncle held her hand and protected her behind him, wanting to take her to the Princess's Mansion to seek justice.
He was even willing to sacrifice his title to argue for her before the emperor.
Everyone doubted her and despised her, only the Shen family stood firmly behind her.
In this life, it is her turn to protect them.
Shen Nanzhi knew that her uncle had just returned and had a lot of things waiting for him, so she didn't bother him anymore. She waved goodbye to him and turned to go to Jinxiu Garden where her mother lived.
My mother was frail and, coupled with the exhaustion from the long journey, she fell ill again right after returning.
Shen Nanzhi gave orders to the maids and old women serving in A Niang's Jinxiu Garden that no news from inside or outside the mansion should be reported to her in the next few days, especially any news from the Jiang Mansion. She had people intercept the news and send it directly to her yard.
Her grandmother, Zhao, did send people to invite A Niang twice. It was obvious that this was to seek redress for Jiang Yanran, but Shen Nanzhi rejected the request each time on the grounds that A Niang was ill.
Shen Nanzhi didn't want his mother to worry about these trivial matters.
She knew that Jiang Yanran would definitely cause a scene after returning home, but she didn't expect Jiang Yanran to be so patient and wait for another day.
It was not until Shen Nanzhi saw Jiang Qingyuan who came with Jiang Yanran that she understood.
Oh, it turns out that he was waiting for Jiang Qingyuan's day off to come and settle the accounts.
Shen Nanzhi's mother had been very weak since childhood. After giving birth to Shen Nanzhi, her body was completely depleted and she could no longer get pregnant.
Even so, her father Jiang Shiyan had no complaints and even refused to take a concubine. He adopted a nephew who had lost his father and mother from the Jiang family, changed his family tree and fostered him under the name of his mother. This is the brother in front of him, Jiang Qingyuan.
Today, Jiang Yanran was different from the bright and flamboyant look of the past two days. She wore a plain white satin dress with only a few simple red hairpins on her head. With tears in her eyes, she looked even more pitiful.
Jiang Qingyuan, who was walking in front of her, had handsome features and a temperament as upright as a green bamboo. There was a bit of the shadow of Shen Nanzhi's father, Jiang Shiyan, in his brows.
He is calm and reserved, does things properly, and is extremely devoted to Shen Nanzhi. He is a good brother in everyone's eyes.
Shen Nanzhi also thought so in his previous life.
Until her kung fu was abolished and she was trapped in a deserted house by Xiao Qian'an and Jiang Yanran, with nowhere to go, she took great pains to send someone to pass the message to Jiang Qingyuan, hoping that he could come to rescue her, but in return he said: "Yanran must have her reasons for doing this."
He immediately killed the maid who delivered the message to Shen Nanzhi.
He said this to Shen Nanzhi later when Jiang Yanran was too proud of herself.
Jiang Qingyuan had a share of the credit for murdering A Niang and seizing the Zhenguo Mansion!
Shen Nanzhi's heart was filled with hatred, but for now he could only swallow it down and not let them notice anything, so as not to alert the enemy.
Before the two could start to question them, Shen Nanzhi greeted them with a smile and said half-jokingly, "I didn't notice it before, but now I see that brother and sister are really a perfect match."
It was just a joke. After all, they were both of marriageable age and had known each other since childhood, so it was not a bad idea for them to get married.
But as soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Qingyuan and Jiang Yanran's expressions froze, and there was an obvious panic and embarrassment in their eyes.
Shen Nanzhi understood.
