The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

Shen Nanzhi naturally noticed it.

However, she misunderstood and thought that Xiao Chuyun was a little embarrassed because of his health.

And no one would feel good about mentioning this matter.

For a moment, Shen Nanzhi even felt a little annoyed at his own recklessness.

Not wanting Xiao Chuyun to be unhappy or under any pressure, Shen Nanzhi waved her hand quickly: "I just said that, Your Majesty, don't take it to heart. It's still early, so there's no rush."

Xiao Chuyun let go of Shen Nanzhi's fingers, picked up the teacup casually, took a sip of tea, then looked at Shen Nanzhi meaningfully, curled his lips and smiled faintly: "Miss Shen is right, there is no rush."

That look was a little strange, and it always made Shen Nanzhi feel like he was being plotted against, but he couldn't tell why.

She was about to ask in detail, but suddenly out of the corner of her eye she caught sight of Zhuifeng rushing over from the direction of the lotus pond.

Before he even reached the bottom of the library, Zhuifeng had already seen Shen Nanzhi and bowed to her, saying, "Miss, something happened to the Liu family."

Shen Nanzhi waved his hand, and Zhuifeng flipped over a few times, easily leaped onto the attic and climbed in through the window.

Xiao Chuyun was wearing a mask. Although Zhuifeng didn't know his identity, he saw Shen Nanzhi's attitude and didn't mean to ask Xiao Chuyun to avoid him. Zhuifeng also respectfully clasped his fists to greet Xiao Chuyun, and then said to Shen Nanzhi: "It was Miss Jingya. She was unwilling to be imprisoned by the Liu family, and just set her house on fire. Fortunately, the young lady sent someone to secretly protect her, and she was rescued in time, but the matter has become a big deal. Now the Liu family is forcing her to go to the ancestral hall."

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi's heart skipped a beat.

She should have thought of it earlier. With Liu Jingya's fiery temper, she might really do something so extreme!

She had been taking care of Shen Changan and the Shen family before, and was afraid that the news would leak out, which would bring disaster to Shen Changan and the Shen family. In addition, because of Shen Changan's instructions, Shen Nanzhi had to hide it from her.

But Shen Nanzhi ignored Liu Jingya's character of preferring to die in glory rather than live in disgrace. At this critical juncture, how could Liu Jingya obediently allow herself to be controlled by the Liu family?

In the previous life, when the Shen family suffered such a tragic end, Liu Jingya was able to resolutely break with the Liu family. How could she give up in this life?

Fortunately, Shen Nanzhi had arranged people to guard secretly in advance.

If something goes wrong...

Shen Nanzhi subconsciously covered her chest. Otherwise, not only would she not be able to explain to Shen Changan, but she would also not be able to get over this hurdle herself.

However, the Liu family’s ancestral hall was not so easy to build.

With Liu Jijiu's strict concept of family management, none of the Liu family's children who were brought into the ancestral hall for trial in the past came out unscathed.

At the very least, you will lose half your life.

Especially at this juncture.

The Liu family was not only punishing Liu Jingya, but also taking this opportunity to show their loyalty to Emperor Shunqing.

The Liu family already has a daughter who has married into the Shen family, and is already closely entangled with the Shen family. If Liu Jingya is asked to marry into the Shen family again knowing that Emperor Shunqing has murderous intentions towards the Shen family, it will inevitably make Emperor Shunqing unhappy. When the time comes to settle accounts in the future, the Liu family will inevitably be involved.

Liu Jijiu loves his granddaughter Liu Jingya, but that is only on ordinary days, when it does not involve the family's interests.

Now this situation...

The fact that Liu Jingya was taken to the ancestral hall speaks volumes.

Shen Nanzhi couldn't sit still any longer, so she stood up immediately.

Seeing that Xiao Chuyun was about to stand up, Shen Nanzhi turned his head and glanced at Mo Yun who was sneaking over the wall below: "I can handle it myself. Your health is more important. It is not appropriate for you to run back and forth with me. Besides, Mo Yun should have something important to talk to you about."

Xiao Chuyun naturally saw Mo Yun as well.

But he was obviously worried about Shen Nanzhi.

But Shen Nanzhi smiled at him and said, "I'm not alone either. I'll ask my third aunt to come along."

Shen Nanzhi's third aunt, Liu Xiuzhu, is also the legitimate daughter of Liu Jijiu. It would be most appropriate for her to take Shen Nanzhi there.

Seeing that she had her own plans, Xiao Chuyun had no choice but to nod: "Okay, I'll wait for you at home."

The word "home" made Shen Nanzhi feel dazed for a moment. If it weren't for the familiar environment around her, she would have thought that this was not her Shen home, but the Zhenbei Palace.

Xiao Chuyun was very outgoing and called the yard where she lived "home".

But at this moment Shen Nanzhi had no time to joke with him. She nodded, followed Zhuifeng, went down the attic, and went straight to find her third aunt.

My third aunt is busy with the household affairs.

The eldest aunt is "sick", the second aunt is a martial arts fanatic who only knows how to speak with her fists, so she is not in charge of the family, and the fourth aunt is soft-hearted and even softer than her heart, so she cannot establish her authority, so the burden of housekeeper temporarily falls on the third aunt.

Especially in the past few days, because of Shen Changan's accident, those who were related to the Shen family and had dealings with them on a daily basis sent invitations and gifts to the Shen family, and people came to visit from time to time.

Whether they came to visit sincerely or to get information, they had to be entertained, which made my third aunt very busy.

When Shen Nanzhi went over, she had just seen off a few guests.

After Shen Nanzhi explained his purpose, she was so angry that she ordered the door to be closed and she got on the carriage and took Shen Nanzhi to Liu's house.

After all, she is a married lady from the Liu family. Even if she wants to keep a distance from the Shen family, she cannot openly reject Liu Xiuzhu.

The two of them rushed all the way to the Liu Family Ancestral Hall.

Before I even got there, I heard a reprimand coming from the ancestral hall.

"I think I've been too indulgent with you! That's why you have developed such a lawless personality! Fortunately, we discovered it early. If the fire had spread today, not only your yard, but even the entire Liu family would have been affected. You bastard! You're trying to kill us!"

The man's voice was loud and confident. If Shen Nanzhi remembered correctly, it should be Liu Jingya's cheap father, Liu Chengzhong.

The reason why he is called a stepfather is that he has too many children and he favors several concubines. He has never cared about Liu Jingya, his legitimate daughter. It is probably because he saw that his eldest son has the tendency to favor concubines over his wife and he is afraid that rumors of a bad family tradition will spread. Therefore, Liu Jijiu takes special care of his granddaughter Liu Jingya, as a way of supporting his eldest daughter-in-law.

But this also made Liu Chengzhong even more displeased with Liu Jingya.

Shen Nanzhi followed her aunt to the outside of the ancestral hall, and heard Liu Chengzhong continue to scold: "Before, the kid from the Shen family was still alive, and no one stopped you from running to the Shen family, but now is different! Shen Changan is dead! Why are you still rushing to join in the fun! You have no shame, but our Liu family still has!"

There were people on the side who chimed in, but their words sounded like they were fanning the flames.

"That's right, Jingya, you are too ignorant. How could you set fire to your own yard for an outsider? Your mother detained you for your own good. Look how angry your parents are. Hurry up and admit your mistake to them. Then Second Aunt will speak up for you."

However, Liu Jingya's voice was obviously extremely weak, but her words were powerful: "I am not wrong! You were the ones who promised me and Brother Chang'an's marriage before. We were about to get engaged when we returned from the Qiuwei hunting tour. Now that he is in trouble, why can't I go to the Shen family? I am shameless, but it is better than you being heartless and ungrateful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of a teacup being smashed into pieces in the ancestral hall.

Liu Chengzhong said angrily, "Evil creature! Evil creature! How could I give birth to someone like you! The Shen family is doomed! There is no smoke without fire. You don't listen to any rumors outside! What's more, your grandfather has been in the court for so many years, and he still can't see the emperor's mind? Not to mention that Shen Changan is dead, even if he is still alive, I can't watch you jump into the fire pit of the Shen family. If you want to die, don't drag my Liu family down with you! Seeing that your fifth cousin has been confined, if my Shen family openly disobeys the emperor's will at this critical juncture, what will be the end in the future, have you thought about it?"

Shen Nanzhi, who heard this outside the door, breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that even the people of the Liu family don’t know the news of the accident between the Fifth Prince and Liu Jingyi.

As for Lin Hongrui and the involvement between the Shen Mansion and the Zhou Family, they had not heard a single word. Otherwise, he would have guessed that even if Emperor Shunqing wanted to kill the Shen Family again, he would have to target the Zhou Family first.

Compared with the Shen family, which no longer has much deterrent power and even has only one Shen Huaishu, and a house full of sick and widows, Zhou Zhengyong, who has been preparing for war and has exposed his wolfish ambitions, obviously makes him more uneasy.

What's more, there is the southern Xinjiang that is ready to make moves.

Emperor Shunqing urgently needs the Shen family to intimidate southern Xinjiang so that he can free up his hands to concentrate on dealing with Zhou Zhengyong. After getting rid of this great threat, the knife will fall on the Shen family.

At that time, his uncle Shen Huaishu and cousin Changan had already contacted the old members of the Shen family, took over and integrated the Shen family army. It was not like it is now, where he could move whenever he wanted.

Obviously, the Liu family members don’t know this yet; they only see the surface.

Now that the Shen family is in an advantageous position, it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to let Liu Jingya see the true face of the Liu family, who are opportunistic and seek profit and avoid harm, and draw a clear line between them, so as to avoid being caught in a dilemma by family ties in the future.

Shen Nanzhi and his third aunt looked at each other, neither of them said anything, just listened silently.

At this time, Liu Jingya said firmly: "Since you are afraid of death, just expel me from the Shen family. You can go your way to glory and wealth, and I will go my way. From now on, even if I die outside, it will have nothing to do with the Liu family!"

"you!"

Liu Chengzhong was so angry that his hands were shaking. He gritted his teeth and said, "All the elders in the clan are here today. Let's see how to deal with this evildoer according to the clan rules. I have no objection."

The second aunt of the Liu family who had tried to reconcile them earlier also advised, "Jingya, why bother? Just give in to your father for the sake of a dead Shen Changan. It's not worth it. Besides, look at the whole house of widows in the Shen family. You're still rushing over. Aren't you afraid of being criticized? We already have an aunt involved. We can't get involved anymore. Your cousins ​​will still get married in the future!"

This made everyone in the Liu family even angrier, especially Liu Chengzhong. He couldn't do anything to Liu Jingya, so he could only turn around and scold Madam Liu who was wiping away tears, "Look, look! These are all good girls you raised!"

Madam Liu, who had always been humble in front of her husband, could not help herself and retorted, "I don't see you care about our daughter on weekdays, but now you blame me for not bringing her up well. You were the one who agreed to this marriage, and now that the Shen family is in trouble, you are the first one to oppose it. I didn't know my husband was so good at changing his attitude according to the situation!"

"It's the other way around!"

Liu Chengzhong, who was humiliated in public, cursed angrily and was about to scold loudly, but at this moment, Liu Xiuzhu pushed open the door of the ancestral hall.

Because the quarrel inside was too intense, the servant who came to report the news was blocked outside the door. Before he could even open his mouth, Liu Xiuzhu had already arrived with Shen Nanzhi.

All the Liu family members in the room opened their eyes wide and looked over at this moment.

Liu Chengzhong was also a little surprised, "Fourth sister... why are you here?"

Liu Jingya, who was kneeling in the middle of the room, was also startled when she saw Liu Xiuzhu: "Auntie..."

However, the next time she saw Shen Nanzhi standing behind Liu Xiuzhu, her eyes immediately turned red. She no longer cared about the rules and stood up, turned around and ran towards Shen Nanzhi, wanting to throw herself into Shen Nanzhi's arms.

But she had not had any water recently and her body was too weak. When she stood up, she staggered and was about to fall down. In the end, Shen Nanzhi stepped forward and caught her in his arms.

"Sister Zhizhi, I want to marry Brother Changan. Even if he dies, I will marry his tablet and fulfill my filial duty for him. Can you take me back to the Shen family?"

She was so weak that she was almost out of breath just by saying these few words.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xiuzhu's eyes were red, and she looked up at everyone in the Liu family: "If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that you all looked at me and the Shen family in this way."

At this point, she turned to look at Liu Jingya's second aunt, raised her eyebrows and said, "Second sister-in-law, I want to correct you. I didn't marry into the Shen family. Even to this day, I am willing. Even if I start over again, I will still choose to marry the third son of the Shen family and never regret it."

Although Liu Xiuzhu is the daughter of the Liu family, she has already married into the Shen family and has an imperial decree. After all, her status is special. Her words left everyone present speechless.

But the second sister-in-law of the Liu family, who had been acting weird just now, was different. After being scolded by Liu Xiuzhu, she couldn't help but sneer, "What I said is also true. Whether you regret it or not is your business. It is an indisputable fact that you have brought bad luck to the Liu family. People will say that all the daughters of our Liu family who got married became widows. Who will dare to marry them in the future?"

This is really a vicious statement.

Shen Nanzhi was about to retort, but this was the Liu family ancestral hall after all, so it still depended on what her third aunt thought.

Shen Nanzhi held Liu Jingya's shoulders and let her lean on him, taking away most of her strength, so that Liu Jingya could barely stand.

Only then did Shen Nanzhi turn around and look at his third aunt.

But even the good-tempered Liu Xiuzhu became angry. Her brows were furrowed and her fingers were clenched tightly in front of her body, but she endured it in the end, and did not forget to turn around and give Shen Nanzhi a reassuring look.

After a moment of silence, Liu Xiuzhu looked up at Liu Jijiu, who had remained silent on the main seat, and said, "Father, according to the family rules, how do you plan to deal with Jingya?"
