Quick Wear: Villain Happiness System
Chapter 123 Xiao Yi 24
"Dad, what's wrong with you? His Majesty has made things difficult for you." Shen Yan looked at Shen Chi's face full of confusion.
Shouldn’t it be? ?
However, when Shen Chi, who was standing by, heard the word "Your Majesty", his expression became even gloomier.
"Come in." Shen Chi looked at Shen Yan deeply and walked towards the study first.
Shen Yan felt uneasy when he was looked at by him. This was the first time he saw Shen Chi lose his temper so badly. He hurriedly followed him.
In the study room.
Shen Chi sat heavily in the mahogany chair behind the desk, his face extremely cold.
"Dad, what happened to you?" Shen Yan asked cautiously, "Did something happen?"
"What's the matter? ... Heh ... Do you know what all the civil and military officials said when I met His Majesty today? They said I really gave birth to a good son!!"
"Instead of being a good prince, he became His Majesty's male favorite."
Shen Yan's face changed. He was always cautious on weekdays. Even when he was accompanying Xiao Yi, he always avoided people in Qianyuan Hall.
I didn't expect that someone would still spread the news.
The palace is so huge and there are so many spies. Even if he pays more attention, he will be noticed by someone after a few months.
"How dare they say such things about Daddy."
"Why not?!" Shen Chi sneered, "Shen Xuan, no matter how bad you were before, I still thought you were still young, but I didn't expect you to be with His Majesty... I am so disappointed in you..."
Shen Yan was stunned and looked at Shen Chi in disbelief, "Dad... do you think so too?"
Shen Chi didn't say anything, and the study became quiet for a moment.
After a long time, Shen Chi sighed tiredly, "Your Majesty is a capable man. Now the country is peaceful and the people are safe. Your Majesty has a new heir. You and he are not the same kind of people..."
"…He is the king and you are the subject."
"He is the king, and you are the subject...it is impossible for you two to be together."
Shen Yan fell silent. What should he say? The child is his! !
Shen Chi added: "You are already nineteen this year. Although you have not yet arranged a marriage, there are still many noble families who want to marry into our Shen family."
"Daddy is keeping an eye on you and trying to find someone you like. The Shen family's eldest son is going to inherit the family business and can't be trapped in the backyard forever..."
"Dad, I really like His Majesty, and..."
"Stop talking." Shen Chi waved his hand and interrupted Shen Yan: "I know you like His Majesty, but this is two different things.
Liking someone doesn't mean you can act on your emotions. You are the heir of the Shen family, and you shoulder the future and responsibility of the Shen family."
"Your Majesty is the king and you are the subject. This is an unchangeable fact. You cannot ignore the Shen family because of personal feelings." Shen Yan lowered his head and clenched his hands into fists.
Shen Chi looked at his son and knew that he must be in pain.
However, as the eldest son of the Shen family, he is destined not to be able to do as he pleases like ordinary people.
"Xuan'er, you have to understand that as the prince of a marquisate, there are some things that you cannot control."
Shen Yan didn't say anything, just stood aside silently.
Shen Chi looked at him, feeling somewhat reluctant.
"Daddy will find a good marriage for you. You don't have to worry about His Majesty anymore..." he said in a deep voice.
"Shen San, take the prince back to the bamboo courtyard, and Shen Wu and the others will keep a close eye on him..."
"Dad, are you going to put me under house arrest?" Shen Yan's face darkened as he looked at the men in black who suddenly appeared.
Shen Chi waved his hand in silence, signaling Shen San to take Shen Yan away.
Shen Yan did not resist and followed Shen San out of the study.
Looking at Shen Yan's departing back, Shen Chi sighed in his heart.
Aunt Song, who was waiting anxiously outside the house, saw Shen Yan being taken away and hurried in.
"My Lord, this is happening to the prince..." Aunt Song looked at Shen Chi worriedly.
Shen Chi was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Have you also heard about Xuan'er's matter?"
Aunt Song's heart tightened and she nodded silently.
"My lord, the prince really loves that girl, he..." Aunt Song silently recounted everything the prince had done during this period.
At first, when she heard the rumors, she was frightened and wanted to persuade them, but when she saw what the prince did for that person every day, she swallowed the words that were on her lips.
As a result, she ate a lot of strange and bizarre delicacies every day.
Shen Chi listened without any expression on his face, but his eyes were somewhat deep.
"My Lord, this is the first time I see the prince love someone so much." Aunt Song looked at Shen Chi's expression and asked cautiously.
"Or just follow the prince..." Aunt Song's words slowly faded away under Shen Chi's stern gaze.
"Don't interfere in this matter. As for the matter between Xuan'er and that person, Xuan'er will definitely be disgraced in the end, while that person will get away with it unscathed." Shen Chi sneered.
Aunt Song heard this and looked at Shen Chi in confusion.
"My Lord, what do you mean?"
"Our man is in a high position and his interest in Xuan'er is just temporary. He has many wives and concubines, and now he has a child to be born. Even if he likes Xuan'er a little, over time, Xuan'er will only be a small episode in his life and will not produce any results." Aunt Song was silent for a moment. She knew that Shen Chi was telling the truth.
"But, Lord Hou, the prince really likes that person..." Aunt Song said in a low voice, feeling sorry for Shen Xuan.
Shen Chi sighed, "I know. I just hope he can see the truth sooner and not let himself get too deeply involved, otherwise he will be the one who gets hurt in the end..."
Aunt Song sighed silently. Although she felt a little reluctant, she knew that Shen Chi had made his decision.
"Okay, Suniang, go back to your room early and I'll come to see you later." Shen Chi looked at Aunt Song's bulging belly, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and his voice slowed down a little.
Song Suniang nodded slightly, "Yes, Lord."
After Aunt Song left.
Shen Chi stood alone in the study, staring at a portrait.
The woman in the painting is elegant and refined, with a unique charm between her eyebrows and eyes. She is a portrait of Shen Xuan's biological mother, Li Yu.
This was the first time he saw her, and from then on, her image was deeply engraved in his heart.
"Mother Yu, what do you think would happen if it were you?" Shen Yan's tone was filled with helplessness and tenderness.
His fingers slowly stroked the face in the portrait.
....................................
As soon as Shen Yan returned to the bamboo courtyard, the gate was locked.
The door was also guarded.
He sat by the window with a gloomy face, and gently stroked the jade pendant with his fingers. A cold feeling passed through his fingertips to his heart.
He frowned slightly, looking at the closed gate, feeling annoyed.
