Shen Shen Shen doesn't pursue men, only money

Chapter 114 Shen Liuye's Darkest Moment

Uncovering the brocade, Shen Liuye took out one of the gifts on the glass plate and walked towards the Princess of Zhong, kneeling down to salute and speaking.

"Yer heard that the princess loved the peonies when she was still unmarried, and after marrying Prince Zhong, she also planted a garden full of peonies. However, the peony blooms for a limited time, so Ye embroidered a painting of Huaiyue Weizi for the princess, hoping that the princess can enjoy the flowers even when they are not in bloom."

After that, she slowly unfolded the embroidery. Clusters of beautiful purple peonies appeared on the embroidered satin, the flowers were lifelike, as if swaying in the wind, and for a moment it was as if you were in a sea of ​​peony flowers.

Shen Shenshen had to admit that Shen Liuye's embroidery skills were indeed amazing. At the same time, she found that she was indeed thoughtful and had started preparing early in order to marry Xiao Zhu. Sure enough, it was used today.

It was the chrysanthemum month and the flowering period had long passed. When the princess saw her favorite Wei Zi peony jumping before her eyes, she couldn't help but take a few more glances and smiled at Shen Liuye.

"Miss Shen Wuguo is so thoughtful." The princess raised her hand to Chun Nuan who was standing behind her, and the head maid immediately stepped forward to take the embroidered satin.

Seeing the princess accept her embroidery, Shen Liuye was very excited and looked up at Zhu Yanxiao who was sitting next to the princess. The prince she had been thinking about day and night was still handsome and extraordinary, with a natural talent. She blushed after just a few glances.

Zhu Yanxiao was already a little angry when she interrupted Shen Shenshen's reply just now. Now seeing her blatant and clumsy method, he has reached the limit of his tolerance and is indifferent to Shen Liuye.

Seeing that the prince didn't even raise his eyelids, Shen Liuye bit her lower lip, turned around and came to Madam Mu. Just as she was about to bow and perform the same trick as before, Mu Yejun spoke first.

"Miss Shen Wu, I guess what you're giving to your mother is also an embroidery, right? Time is limited today, so I won't look at it. Your mother will accept the gift." After saying that, she glanced at the banyan tree behind Madam Mu, and the head maid immediately stepped forward. Shen Liuye was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and awkwardly handed over the embroidery prepared for Madam Mu.

Today was her first time meeting Second Master Mu, and she was also shocked by his appearance. She didn't expect that there would be such a handsome man besides Prince Zhu and her fourth brother Xien. But for some reason, Second Master Mu made her a little timid and always felt scared.

Seeing Rongzhi accept the embroidery, Mu Yejun put on a dandy and fearless look and said, "Miss Shen Wu, I haven't married yet, and I have no plans to take concubines for the time being. Even if I do, I promised my future wife that I would only take three, and the quota for these three is full."

The whole room was silent. Shen Liuye's face flushed red, as if she had been stripped naked. She stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

Shen Shenshen almost wanted to clap his hands and shout, "Good!"

Mu Yejun looked at Shen Shenshen with a look of seeking credit, and Shen Shenshen immediately gave him a thumbs up secretly.

Mu Yejun smiled and Zhu Yanxiao frowned.

Seeing that no one came to her rescue, Shen Liuye showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Second Master Mu, you misunderstood. Ye'er doesn't have the same idea as Gao Pan."

"Oh." King Mu Hai raised his eyebrows nonchalantly: "Just think that I am overthinking. Thank you for the embroidery, Miss Fifth."

"Madam Mu, Second Young Master, you're polite." Shen Liuye tried hard to maintain her decency.

Madam Mu didn't say a word the whole time, she just smiled at her second son. Everyone had heard that she had always doted on this second son too much, and today, it was true. No one noticed that her eyes were empty and without any emotion.

Zhu Yanxiao was already angry when Shen Liuye interrupted Shen Shenshen's answer, and Mu Yejun's words "I promised my future wife that I would only marry three concubines" had shaken Shen Shenshen's heart to marry him a few days ago. In addition, Shen Shenshen actually made small gestures towards Mu Yejun.

At this moment, he just wanted to go over and pick up Shen Shenshen and throw her on the bed. He would make her forget all men.

Mrs. Shen was just about to tell Shen Liuye to go down quickly and not to embarrass herself here when she heard a cold voice.

"Miss Shen Wu." Zhu Yanxiao spoke.

Shen Shenshen and Shen Liuye looked at him at the same time. One had a look of "the show is about to begin" while the other had a blushing face that was extremely charming.

"Today, the Prince's Mansion came to the Marquis' Mansion to discuss marriage, and asked to marry this prince's princess. I don't have time to watch a concubine's daughter show off her talents in order to become a concubine. Also, Miss Fifth interrupted the princess' reply when she entered the room just now. This prince is in a bad mood now. Put away your inappropriate thoughts and go down."

Shen Liuye was unwilling to give up, and still replied in a teary tone: "My Lord, I didn't mean to interrupt my second sister. I hope you can forgive me."

Madam Shen felt that the face of the Marquis' Mansion was lost by this concubine's daughter today, but she was the daughter of the Marquis' Mansion after all, so she had to give her face and give her a way out: "Ye'er, if there is nothing else, mother still needs to discuss important matters with the two ladies, so please leave first."

Before Madam Shen could finish, Shen Liuye had already knelt down in front of the princess with a plop, tears welling up in her eyes: "Princess, Ye'er has admired Prince Zhu for a long time, but knowing that her status is low, she dare not compete with the second sister for the position of the prince's consort. Ye'er only wants to advance..."

"Xingyun." Zhu Yanxiao interrupted Shen Liuye.

"Prince." The indifferent guard stepped out from behind him.

"A concubine's daughter has no respect for her elders. She turned a deaf ear to her mother's words and spoke back to her. This is considered unfilial. According to the laws of the Eastern Border, she should be beaten with twenty sticks. Let Feidaowei use some skills when beating her. This prince does not want to see blood on the day of the marriage proposal."

"Yes." Xingyun immediately blew a strange syllable.

A few breaths later, two female guards came into the room, took off Shen Liuye's clothes and walked out.

Shen Liuye was stunned and said incoherently: "Prince, Ye'er was wrong, please forgive me. Shen Shen, please ask the prince to forgive me. Mother, mother, save me, Ye'er was wrong, mother, save me."

"Xingyun, we will fight outside the courtyard. If anyone asks for mercy, we will give him twenty blows."

"Yes." Xingyun turned and walked out.

Mrs. Shen didn't say a word to persuade him.

Although it was beyond the authority of Prince Zhu to cane the Fifth Lady in the Marquis's Mansion, who can blame him for being a royal relative? The current emperor's surname is Zhu, and the prince's surname is also Zhu. Although her family is a noble family, it is just the surname Shen. The key point is that Shen Liuye contradicted her, the mistress of the house, twice today, making her lose face in front of the two ladies. If Prince Zhu did not take action today, she would settle the score later.

Soon, Shen Liuye's muffled groans and the muffled slapping sounds of a board hitting flesh could be heard from outside the courtyard. Aunt Du had already rushed over after hearing the news, and with tears in her eyes, she called Shen Liuye's name but did not dare to plead for mercy. She could only ask someone to quickly inform the Marquis and the old lady.

The atmosphere among the five people in the room was a bit depressing.

Princess Cao understood how much the eldest son liked the second daughter of Marquis Anbo, and protected her very much. Fortunately, the second daughter seemed to be well-educated, decent and generous, but she was not sure if she had a good brain and whether she could be trusted to manage the affairs of the palace in the future.
