Chapter 455 A Stranger’s Rise to Power (23)
Those are all the words that relatives can say when they meet. Besides, the original body of Shen Yao's body did not have a close relationship with Shen Rong and Madam Shen. It was only later because of the interests that he and Shen Rong gradually developed some friendship.
As for Mrs. Shen, this person has said a lot of bad things about Shen Yao in the Shen family (from secret reports by the system).
Let Xiaofu take Mrs. Shen out for a walk first, as the scenery of Furong Palace is quite nice.
Hearing this, Shen Rong reached out and pushed Madam Shen, "Mom, my sister and I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I just happened to have some personal conversations. Didn't you say before that you felt a little bored staying in the room for a long time? It would be nice to go out for a walk with Miss Xiaofu."
Mrs. Shen: ...
This damn kid actually arranged it like this. She didn't say that she felt bored staying in the room. She also wanted to talk to Shen Yao about supporting her mother's family.
Mrs. Shen secretly glared at Shen Rong who was holding her back, and left unhappily.
Shen Yao pretended not to know and only told Xiaofu to take good care of Mrs. Shen and not let certain people take advantage of the opportunity.
Shen Rong patted her chest worriedly, "Sister, is the palace so dangerous?"
But you have to be careful when walking around Furong Palace. My sister has been living in the palace for several months. I hope she has suffered some harm.
Shen Yao smiled and patted the back of Shen Rong's hand, "Third sister, there are many concubines in the palace, and it is inevitable that some of them will have bad relations with you." This is inevitable. A group of women are competing for one man, and if the relationship is good, then something bad will happen.
Shen Rong showed an expression that said, "I understand." "Sister, you have suffered these days."
Not to mention anything else, just the catch-and-release drama of the Shen family a few days ago was enough to make Shen Rong realize the cruelty and cold-bloodedness of reality.
If my sister had not been pregnant and the emperor had given the Shen family a chance to prove their innocence, they might have been forced to leave the capital and exiled to a remote town to live out their lives.
Shen Yao did not explain that she was not suffering, but followed the topic to let Shen Rong's imagination run wild and imagine all kinds of difficulties for her.
It is said that we share the joys and sorrows. It is easier to empathize with suffering than to enjoy happiness.
The Shen family had a hard time outside the palace, and Shen Yao had an even worse time inside the palace.
She said vaguely that everything was over, that she was now pregnant, that the Shen family had finally gotten their reward after all the hard work, and that they had all escaped from a situation that was doomed to fail.
"Third sister, you should be happy. Compared to those who lost their lives, we are very lucky."
The more nonchalant Shen Yao was, the more Shen Rong felt sorry for Shen Yao who entered the palace alone. With tearful eyes, she told Shen Yao about the situation at home these days. Shen Rong solemnly told Shen Yao to take good care of herself and not to hide anything from her family. She should not only report good news but not bad news. The Shen family and Shen Yao are partners in the same camp and they will advance and retreat together.
Shen Yao: ...This kid is getting more and more scary the more he talks. It's really not that serious yet.
"Third Sister"
Shen Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She thought that she could take care of herself in the palace, but she was worried about the Shen family outside the palace. Some of the people in the family were not stupid, but Madam Shen, this was a time bomb.
"We sisters have talked so much, but we haven't asked about the third sister's marriage," Shen Yao changed the sensitive topic without showing it, and joked with a smile when she would be able to drink Shen Rong's wedding wine.
Although I cannot leave the palace, I can still ask the emperor for mercy and arrange for someone to go out of the palace to help me put on makeup.
Shen Rong: ...
Shen Rong's face suddenly turned red, like a ripe red apple, just looking at it made people want to take a bite.
"Sister, marriage is still a matter for our parents to decide. I don't know much about it right now."
Shen Rong rubbed her wrists and explained a few words very embarrassedly.
"I wonder what my father and mother think?" Shen Yao continued to ask, and even did not forget to use the emperor's banner as a tool, "If she is a good person, I think it would be a good story for my sister to ask the emperor to grant her marriage."
Shen Rong's eyes lit up when she heard that.
The marriage granted by the Emperor is a very useful token of support. If my sister really helps her, the value of my marriage will increase even more.
Shen Rong inevitably became excited. After all, everyone has selfish desires. Shen Rong also wanted to live a happy life after getting married. Even if they could not love each other, they had to respect each other. Otherwise, they would end up being a resentful couple. It would be better for her to marry into the Yuan family.
Thinking of the Yuan family, Shen Rong's overly excited expression slowly calmed down.
Shen Yao asked hurriedly, "Is Third Sister worried about something?"
Shen Rong glanced at Shen Yao hesitantly, then said firmly, "It's the Yuan family's business."
Shen Yao thought to herself, as expected they have come, and now it is the Yuan family that she is worried about.
Compared with other families which are easier to deal with, it is extremely difficult for Shen Changyu and others to sever their relationship with the Yuan family as Mrs. Shen's family. What's more, the Yuan family is in a hopeless situation and the Shen family may suffer the consequences in the future.
"The Yuan family is my mother's family. My cousins from the Yuan family visit the Shen family every day. Does my mother want my third sister to marry my cousin from the Yuan family?"
Without waiting for Shen Rong to explain, Shen Yao continued, "The cousin from the Yuan family has a good personality and is also a good candidate for advancement. However, given the current situation of the Shen family, the third sister and the cousin from the Yuan family are not a good match. The third sister can choose a better husband to help herself and the family."
Although saying this may sound like selling out oneself, women in ancient times were very mercenary in their marriages.
People nowadays say that rich families marry their daughters off while poor families marry their wives, but that also depends on one's own situation.
The Shen family was not outstanding before, and they had military generals but nothing to show off. But now that Shen Yao is pregnant, the weight of the only royal heir in her belly is something that even several royal relatives have to weigh.
If Shen Rong continues to get entangled with the Yuan family, it will not only waste the rare opportunity provided by Shen Yao, but will also tie the Shen family and the Yuan family together. In the future, once the Yuan family commits something under the pretext of using this opportunity, both the Shen family and Shen Yao will be implicated.
The teacup was put back on the table. Shen Yao didn't need to say anything more, Shen Rong could understand the deeper meaning that Shen Yao wanted to express.
Regardless of what the Yuan family thinks about this marriage, from Shen Yao's perspective, she does not agree.
Shen Rong felt disappointed but also a little relieved, because deep down she was also unwilling.
She had no better choice before, so she decided to marry into the Yuan family to seek a stable life. Now that the day for further progress is just around the corner, it is simply a fantasy for Mrs. Shen to ask Shen Rong to sacrifice herself to support the Yuan family.
"Sister, father and eldest brother both have the same idea. There have been constant rumors of marriage proposals recently, and they are also considering it seriously. Only mother is more willing to strengthen the relationship, but father is the one who makes the final decision in the family," Mrs. Shen's words did not carry enough weight and had no effect at all.
Shen Yao pulled Shen Rong's wrist and said, "Third sister, you have to give your approval for this matter.
Although in a family like ours, marriage is something that requires a lot of consideration, but I still hope that Third Sister can be happy. There are many ways to move up, and since it is so hard, you must choose carefully. "
I've already tasted all the bitterness, so it won't be a problem if I have a little more sweetness.
The Shen family has a wider range of choices. As long as they avoid families that have close ties with certain princes, the emperor will not say much.
After all, the Shen family is Shen Yao’s maternal family, and also the foreign family of the royal heir in Shen Yao’s belly.
Shen Rong married well, the Shen family became more powerful, Shen Yao in the palace and the unborn royal heir would benefit more, and the emperor is now happy to see it happen.
Giving the court and the throne to one's own son and nephew are two different concepts.
Who would like to give away their family property to others? Blood relatives are definitely the best choice.
The main purpose of chatting with Shen Rong was to tell the Shen family about my attitude.
In fact, it's not just Shen Rong's marriage, but also Shen Changyu and Shen Changhe. They have been dragging it on until now and are both older young people, so they also need to get married.
However, Shen Changyu and Shen Changhe are men, and it is easier for them to find wives than Shen Rong to find a husband. I believe that their stepfather Shen Chunbai will not treat his sons unfairly.
Time always passes quickly when talking and laughing. After hearing Xiaoji's reminder, Shen Rong realized that the time for them to enter the palace had come and it was time to leave.
"Sister, you don't have to see me off. I will come to the palace to visit you when I have the chance in the future."
After the chat, Shen Rong felt refreshed and had gotten rid of all her emotions.
Saying goodbye to Shen Yao with a smile, Shen Rong asked where Mrs. Shen was.
Xiaoji raised his head and pointed outside the Hibiscus Palace, "Madam and Sister Xiaofu went to the Imperial Garden and have not returned yet."
"In that case, I'll go with my third sister," Shen Yao usually felt a little bored staying in the room. The Imperial Garden was not far from the Hibiscus Palace. She smiled and took Shen Rong's wrist. The two sisters and the palace servants set off for the Imperial Garden in a mighty manner.
"Host, this time you may need to come down from heaven to save Madam Shen from the water."
The system suddenly came to join in the fun, saying that Madam Shen was indeed a troublemaker. When she went to the Imperial Garden, she had to confront a palace concubine, and Deng Chongyuan, who was not on good terms with the host. Wow, Madam Shen was in big trouble.
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao subconsciously raised her head and rubbed her forehead. Shen Rong beside her asked her if she was too tired, which made Shen Yao feel even more complicated.
"Mrs. Shen, can't you just be quiet for a while? Deng Chongyuan is waiting to cause trouble for me. This time in the Imperial Garden, she must have planned it in advance."
As expected, Mrs. Shen was plotted against, and as for Deng Chongyuan, she was most likely cannon fodder.
"The host is smart, but what should we do now?" Those people outside the palace are really unwilling to give up. It seems that they will not stop until the host's heir is killed.
'Cold salad'
After replying coldly in their hearts, Shen Yao and Shen Rong soon arrived at the Imperial Garden.
"Sister, I seemed to hear mother's voice just now," Shen Rong subconsciously pulled Shen Yao and stood in front of Shen Yao to look around.
"Xiao Ji, go and check out the situation," Shen Yao signaled Shen Rong not to be nervous.
But after a while, Xiaoji came back, followed by Mrs. Shen and Xiaofu who looked resentful, and then the arrogant and complacent Deng Chongyuan.
At the three-party meeting, Deng Chongyuan took the initiative to speak, accusing Mrs. Shen of being unreasonable to appear in the Imperial Garden.
Shen Yao smiled and said, "If Deng Chongyuan is not satisfied, she can go to the Qianqing Palace to report to the emperor in person."
What are you doing here? If you have the guts, just complain.
Deng Chongyuan: …
Deng Chongyuan pointed at Shen Yao and wanted to shout something, but was stopped by the maid beside her.
"Deng Chongyuan, there is a hierarchy. When you see a concubine who is higher in rank than you, you should greet her politely."
Shen Yao glanced at Deng Chongyuan indifferently and had already put her on the blacklist.
Deng Family! Surrounded by King Cheng!
Sooner or later, they will know how powerful you are!
