Shen Wan was stunned for a moment when he heard Yinshuang's words, and then a bright smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth.
Without any news in advance, the third master was suddenly released. No need to ask, it must be his father's handiwork.
The father wanted to kill Shen Dian with a stick, but the old lady refused. The father wanted to separate the third room from the Marquis mansion, and the old lady threatened to die. The father didn't say anything at that time. It turned out that the arrangement had been made long ago, and he didn't bother to bother the old lady. Lips and tongue, so as not to lose the dignity of a dignified marquis.
In the previous life, my father was negligent and was harmed by them. After all, my father was also a general with a heavy army and the emperor's trust. How could he be forced to lose his principles by an old woman?
You must listen to your father and split up the family honestly. The old lady can still see her son and grandson every now and then. This is no different from the separation of the family. Not to mention, the old lady will hardly see them again for a year and a half - —
I wonder if the old lady is satisfied with this result?
Shen Wan was very curious.
The news of the third master's release has reached Prince Ling's mansion, and it should have reached the old lady's ears by now.
Qinghuiyuan, inside the house.
The old lady is having dinner.
There have been a lot of troubles lately, and the old lady has a poor appetite. She can't even eat half of each meal as before. The small kitchen is racking its brains to allow the old lady to eat two more bites. The old lady usually eats six dishes and one soup. Today I made nine dishes and one soup, but the old lady only tasted one bite of each and put down her ivory chopsticks.
Mother Sun saw it and said, "Old madam, please eat a few more bites, you have eaten too little."
I don’t know how many times Mother Sun has said this these days. She never gets tired of saying it, and the old lady’s ears are almost calloused.
The old lady waved her hand, "Take the food away."
She raised her arms, and Sun's mother helped her sit on the couch.
The old lady sat down and reached out to hold the tea cup. At this time, a little maid ran in from outside the screen and said anxiously, "Old lady, it's not good! The third master has been released by the emperor!"
Clang.
The old lady had just picked up the tea cup. When she heard the little maid's words, her hands stiffened. The tea cup was not steady and fell sideways on the table. The tea dripped along the small table and onto the ground.
The maid hurriedly stepped forward to clean it up, but as she took a step forward, the old lady angrily threw the saucer in her hand on the small table. The suddenness shocked the maid.
The old lady's face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm.
Her hand holding the beads was so tight that it almost shattered.
"Go and invite the Marquis!"
These four words were almost squeezed out from between her teeth.
Even Shen Wan guessed that it was Shen Jing's work, how could the old lady not guess it?
Not only Shen Wan and the old lady, but also everyone in the Hou family could guess it.
The old lady's face looked uglier than ever.
However, what made the old lady's face even more ugly was what happened later. The maid went to invite Shen Jing, but she didn't move.
The maid ran back all the way and reported, "The Marquis said he had military affairs to deal with and didn't have time to come."
The old lady was already angry. She sent someone to invite her, but Shen Jing didn't even come, which only added fuel to the fire.
The third master and his third wife were also there. The third master's face was ashen, and the third wife cried, "The Marquis is determined to drive our third bedroom out of the Marquis mansion..."
The old lady glanced over, "You still have the nerve to cry?! It's not all the fault of your nephew!"
The third wife was so scolded that she didn't even dare to cry.
If she hadn't been afraid that her daughter would be widowed, she would have killed her useless nephew.
After harming her daughter, she harmed her son again, and now he is dragging their entire third family into trouble. What kind of evil has she done to bring such a disaster to such a natal family?
The third wife's intestines were filled with regret, and the old lady had already stood up holding Mother Sun's hand.
Shen Jing didn't have time to come see her, she just went to see him!
Mother Sun helped the old lady to the front yard and to Shen Jing's study.
The old lady didn't even remember the last time she came to Shen Jing's study. She was the old lady of Pingyang Hou Mansion. Shen Jing had always respected her. If she wanted to see Shen Jing, all she had to do was send someone to send a message to Shen Jing. Jingzi would go to see her, but at this moment, she came to the study to see Shen Jing, and the old lady had a long face.
In the study, Shen Jing was writing notes when the servant knocked on the door and said, "Master Marquis, the old lady is here."
Shen Jing had already expected that the old lady would come, and she didn't even raise her eyelids.
When the old lady entered the study, Shen Jing didn't get up.
For so many years, he knew that the old lady had selfish motives. As long as it was not excessive, he would turn a blind eye. But this time, the old lady's defense of her shortcomings, threatening her with death, had already touched Shen Jing's bottom line.
When the old lady walked in, Shen Jing was still writing the book. The old lady squeezed the Buddhist beads in her hand and said coldly, "Is the Marquis so busy with military affairs?!"
Shen Jing frowned, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes, "Did the old lady only know today that I am busy with military affairs?"
The old lady's throat was choked, as if someone had strangled her throat, and she couldn't say a word.
The old lady took a deep breath and then spoke slowly, "Master Hou is busy with military affairs. I know that I always wanted the second and third sons to help you share some of the burden. You are brothers. For the sake of an unworthy nephew, you have to sacrifice the third son. Let go, that would be too harsh. You ask the emperor to take back his life, and I agree with you to separate the third bedroom from the Hou Mansion."
The old lady tried her best to be gentle, but Shen Jing's face still became increasingly ugly.
Manager Li stood aside and didn't know what to say. The old lady was really protective of her. She protected the third bedroom without caring about the identity of the head of the Marquis' family, forcing the Marquis to report to the Emperor. It was recommended that the third master be released. Now seeing that the marquis is serious about it, he has surrendered again and agreed to the separation of the third house. He asked the marquis to go to the emperor to take back his life. Manager Li even doubted whether the old lady was helping the third house or whether she was helping the third house. It hurts the third room.
Shen Jing said coldly, "What does the old lady think of the imperial order? Is it child's play?!"
When Shen Jing is not smiling, he is very dignified and has a cold face. Even the old lady is feeling miserable.
Shen Jing was impatient for the old lady to say another word and directly ordered, "Send the old lady back."
Knowing that Shen Jing had a stubborn temper and would never change his mind about something he had decided to do, Sun's mother quickly persuaded the old lady to leave.
However, Sun's mother went back and persuaded Shen Jing, "The old lady knows that everything the Marquis does is for the good of the Hou family. The third young master has taken the wrong path, and the old lady is also angry. She just can't bear it. The third young master only has a son, the third young master. The second master is already dead, and she really can’t bear the third master’s death too.”
"In order to take care of the Marquis, the old lady married the old man as a second marriage. She has always regarded the Marquis as her own child. Why should she hurt the relationship between mother and son for an unworthy descendant..."
Before Sun's mother could finish her words, Shen Jing interrupted her, "Tell the third child that if he can't discipline his son and let me hear about his misbehavior in Mingzhou, I will remove him from the family tree as well. "
"Go back."
Actually, Mother Sun was not allowed to say a word.
What can Mother Sun do? She can only retreat.
These things quickly reached Shen Wan's ears. Shen Wan was very happy, but Yin Shuang was worried, "Isn't the old lady seeking death and forcing the Marquis to die again?"
Shen Wan curled her lips and said, "Not this time."
"Why?" Yinshuang was puzzled.
"Because it's useless."
The last time she sought death was because of the separation of the family. The old lady was sure that her father would not reveal the reason why he wanted to separate the third bedroom from the Hou Mansion. The family was separated for no reason. The old lady threatened to die to stop it. In the eyes of outsiders, it was the father who did something wrong. The old lady was forced to do so.
The third master's release was not only related to his father, but also involved the emperor.
The old lady threatened her father with death and asked the emperor to take back his life. If this matter were to be spread to the emperor's ears, he would definitely be unhappy.
There are so many officials who are sent abroad. If others can be released, her old lady's son can't, right?
The emperor is unhappy. The third master will probably not even be an official, not to mention being released. The second master may even be implicated.
Well, since I am so reluctant to part with my son, I might as well stay with him and let them fulfill their filial piety.
