The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits

Through a child, he was completely tied to the boat of the Zhenbeihou Mansion, did he really think he was stupid?Not to mention his current status, if he is adopted as his child, does he also become His Majesty's child?

"I just want to correct the mistakes of the past. The heirs of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion must come from the direct line. I only have two sons in my life, but you entered the palace..."

Sullen and impatient to hear him say these words: "Didn't you really want to make Shen Qingran your son before? It's the same for him now."

"How can this be the same?" Marquis Zhenbei was a little anxious, "Only you are the only son of the Marquis Mansion, and it's justified."

"It turns out that Lord Hou also knows that I'm the only righteous and obedient son." Sullenly hooked the corners of his lips mockingly, "You didn't say that when Aunt Ru and her mother gained power. None of it matters."

"I know that you have been blaming me for the past..."

"I don't dare. If the Marquis of Zhenbei just came here for this matter, I advise you not to make a fuss, and don't harm other people's good girls. No matter what calculations you have in mind, I don't agree with the matter of adoption." would agree."

Being rejected mercilessly by Shen Yu, Zhenbei Hou had a bit of embarrassment on his face, "I know you don't like Shen Qingran, and when the child is born, I will make Shen Qingran never appear in front of you, and that child will not know who is his." biological father."

"Let me tell you this. In fact, I don't want to continue my bloodline at all, and I don't want to have an extra child for no reason. I am now a nobleman. Have you ever thought about what this means? On behalf of my child. It will be His Majesty's child, why do you think the courtiers are happy to see His Majesty have another child who has nothing to do with your blood?"

"You don't want a rightful heir who is a direct descendant, but an heir who can get in touch with His Majesty because of me!" Shen Yu looked directly at Zhenbei Hou, as if wanting to see his heart.

Zhenbeihou's face turned red when he was said to be in the middle of his mind. He really thought so. He didn't want the power of Zhenbeihou's mansion to fall into the hands of others. The only heirs he could choose were Shen Yu and Shen Qingran. Prince, think of a way to adopt another child to him, and this child will inherit the Marquis Mansion in the future, but His Majesty refuses to agree, so he can only skip the middle step and skip directly to the next step.

The matter of making Shen Qingran the crown prince is no longer within his consideration, let alone Shen Qingran's status as a concubine cannot inherit the Marquis Mansion, even if he could, the Marquis of Zhenbei would not hand over the Marquis Mansion to him.

What he wants is for the Hou Mansion to become better and better, not for the Hou Mansion to become someone else's wedding dress.

"Father, this is also for your own good. Since ancient times, emperors have been so ruthless. Don't look at your favor now, but can you guarantee that in five or ten years, he will still treat you as you do today? Except for the emperor's favor, You still need to find someone to rely on for yourself..."

"This is a matter between me and Your Majesty, so don't bother Zhen Beihou to care about it."

Zhenbei Hou looked at an ignorant child with gloomy eyes: "Your nobleman should also think more about himself, you are the son of the eldest son, you should have inherited the Hou's mansion..."

"Since the Marquis of Zhenbei also said that I should inherit the Marquis Mansion, why didn't I express anything before entering the palace?" Shen Yu interrupted him again.

Zhenbei Hou was blocked and had nothing to say, because at that time, he was full of thoughts on how to give Shen Qingran the position of son.

"If the minister said that the minister regretted it, would your lord believe it?"

"Believe it, why don't you believe it? After I enter the palace, the Marquis of Zhenbei should see who Shen Qingran is. Do you think that the Hou Mansion will be finished sooner or later when it is handed over to him? The eldest son is now, and in comparison between the two, the advantage of the first son is more and more obvious..."

Regret is the emotion that people are most likely to produce, and it is also the most helpless emotion.

"I know that it's too late to say anything now, but today's matter is not something that you can just say you don't want. The heirs of the Zhenbei Houfu must be from the direct line."

According to Dahuan's laws, regardless of whether Shen Yu enters the palace or not, Shen Qingran is not eligible to inherit the Marquis Mansion. The Marquis of Zhenbei only has Shen Yu as his son. On the other hand, what Zhenbei Hou said was also true.

"The Marquis of Zhenbei is old and strong, so it is not a problem to have another son. I also said before entering the palace that you can ask His Majesty to give you a marriage. Compared with what I said before, wouldn't it be better for you to have one yourself?"

In the depressed tone, he did not hide his sarcasm. Zhenbeihou was so angry that his neck was red. He had thought that Shen Yu would not agree, but he never thought that Shen Yu would be so sharp when he treated him.

When did this situation start?

Zhenbeihou was in a daze for a moment, as if he woke up from fainting when he heard that he was going to enter the palace.

"Is that how you talk to your father?" The expression on Zhenbeihou's face changed a few times.

"Aren't I telling the truth? If you want someone to inherit the Zhenbeihou Mansion, it would be great to have a son by yourself, and save the step of adopting me." Shen Yu smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"You..." Zhenbeihou's words suddenly stuck in his throat.

Shang Junlin came out from behind the screen, his voice could not distinguish between emotions and anger: "I don't know, Zhenbeihou is still thinking about giving your lord an adoptive child."

"I...I dare not." Zhenbei Hou knelt down abruptly, with a layer of sweat on his back.

He didn't know when Shang Junlin came, and how much he had heard Fang Cai's words, but he knew that from this moment on, his plan was destined to be impossible to realize.

"Even if you are your lord's father, I don't want you to intervene in my personal affairs with your lord, understand?"

"Your Majesty understands that I have overstepped the distance. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me!" Zhenbei Hou pressed his forehead to the ground, and his heart seemed to be clenched by a big hand. Under the high tension, his breathing began to be difficult.

Under the heavy pressure, he couldn't even look up at Shang Junlin's expression.

"I said before that since your nobleman has entered the palace, he is one of my people and has nothing to do with your Zhenbeihou Mansion. He will not be the eldest son of the Zhenbeihou Mansion, let alone inherit the title of Zhenbeihou. This time, for the sake of your being your father, I don't care about you sowing discord between me and your lord in front of your lord, and I don't want to see the same thing happen a second time."

"Yes, yes, I don't dare anymore."

"roll."

Zhenbeihou didn't dare to stay for a moment and rolled away.

"Why is Your Majesty even more angry than me?" Shen Yu smoothed the creases between Shang Jun's eyebrows, and the unhappiness caused by Zhen Beihou quickly dissipated in his heart.

Shang Junlin hugged Shen Yu in his arms without saying a word, the man's high body temperature warmed Shen Yu, and after a while, Shang Junlin whispered: "I will never change my treatment of Ah Yu."

The next day, when Shang Junlin went to court, he directly took the position of Marquis of Zhenbei. The ministers didn't know why, and only later did they get the news that His Majesty did this because Marquis of Zhenbei made the nobleman unhappy.

Shang Junlin listened to Zhenbeihou's words that day. This resignation was a warning to him. He thought he would recover one day, but he didn't know that the ending of Zhenbeihou's mansion had already been written by depression. Well, just wait until the last moment.

Time passed slowly, and Gu Huai led his people from Subei, getting closer and closer to the capital.

"Report to the general, traces of unknown forces have been found ahead."

Gu Huai reined in the horse and stopped the horse: "Send someone to check."

When he was in Subei, Gu Huai got news from Hanzhou, and knew that besides Hanzhou, unknown forces might also appear in other places. He came back with [-] soldiers and horses. It is best to solve it directly.

The scouts sent came back soon: "Initial judgment, there are 2000 people ahead, and they are heading towards Hanzhou."

"General, what should we do now?"

Gu Huai pondered for a moment: "First determine their origins, if they belong to the King of Yue's group, we will solve them on the spot."

"Yes!"

It took a little time to solve the 2000 people. I don't know if it is the problem of the road they chose. Since they met the first batch of people from the King of Yue, they will encounter them one after another.

Under the moonlight, Gu Huai wiped his sword.

The adjutant took a sip of water and said: "At this speed, we will not be able to reach the capital on time, and the troops are stranded outside. Will the imperial court be dissatisfied with us?"

The adjutant's worries were not unreasonable. Although 5000 people were not too many, they were still quite a lot. The court gave more time. If it wasn't for dealing with the people of King Yue, they wouldn't have delayed for so long.

"Don't worry."

Gu Huai came to Subei as the Yinlong Guard. He has a way of contacting the Yinlong Guard. After discovering that the first batch of people who are most likely to be the King of Yue, he has contacted the Yin Longwei. Now the news should reach the capital. up.

It's just a pity... I thought I could catch up with my brother to celebrate the New Year this year.

"Gu Huai met someone from King Yue." Shang Junlin closed the secret letter and put it on the table.

"On the way back from Subei?"

"Yes, and there are more than one group. He suspects that there are also many forces in other places rushing to Hanzhou."

Now that the person has been found, there is absolutely no reason to let it go, Shang Junlin ordered Gu Huaijin to go to support, and it is best to clean up everything along the road.

Along the way, the number of Gu Huai's soldiers and horses increased, and more and more rebels were dealt with by him.

"Bang—" The vase fell to the ground with a loud noise.

"We can't wait any longer. Our people hiding in the dark have been discovered." Mr. Tan looked anxious.

"Except for the 10 horses in Hanzhou, how many are there? Can you help us break out of the siege?" After venting, the hostility on King Yue's face dissipated a little.

"There are [-] available now, and those who haven't arrived can't wait." Mr. Tan originally wanted to wait for those people to arrive before doing anything, but now a mysterious force from nowhere has wiped out several of their strongholds one after another. It was only a matter of time before the rest were discovered.

The snow is falling more and more.

Snow fell like goose feathers, and the patrolling soldiers suddenly realized something was wrong and sounded the alarm.

The city gate of Hanzhou, which had been closed for many days, was opened, and archers stood on the city wall.

"Shoot the arrow—"

The sound of swords and swords lasted for a long time.

The news was rushed to the capital.

"It seems that Gu Huai's actions interrupted their plan." Shen Yu sat down beside Shang Junlin slowly.

"Gu Huai made another great contribution this time. I asked him to take people to Hanzhou directly. Calculating the time, we can arrive in a few days."

King Yue stood on the city wall, watching the flames of war spread below, and slowly raised the corners of his lips, they would win immediately.

The Dahuan army guarding Hanzhou did not expect that there were people from the King of Yue hiding outside, so they were caught off guard.
