The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Chapter 429: The princess is still planning to divorce me?

When Shen Qinglan woke up, three little heads immediately came up to her.

Shen Qinglan looked at the three young faces, raised the corners of his mouth, and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"Brother Yan, Brother Yu, Sister Yi, why are you here?"

"Mother! You finally woke up!"

"Mom! You've lost a lot of weight!"

"Mom, are you hungry?"

Ever since Huo Zhanting brought Shen Qinglan back home, the three little guys have been squatting beside Shen Qinglan to guard her for a day and a night.

Seeing Shen Qinglan waking up, everyone was extremely happy.

Shu Yu, who was standing by, was also relieved when he saw Shen Qinglan wake up. He quickly stepped forward and helped Shen Qinglan sit up straight before saying:

"Princess, you slept for a whole day and night, and you scared everyone. The young masters were worried about you, so they kept watching over you."

Shen Qinglan looked at the dark circles under the eyes of the little guys, and was touched and amused. He reached out and rubbed their heads one by one and said:

"I'm fine. You guys go back and get some rest. If a child doesn't get enough sleep, he won't grow tall."

Huo Junyu and Huo Jingyi covered their faces in fear when they heard this, but Huo Junyan sighed helplessly, like a little adult, and said in a gentle voice:

"Mom, don't coax us. We will go to rest after we accompany you to eat."

As Huo Junyan said this, he asked the servants to bring up the prepared porridge, and then looked at Shen Qinglan with anticipation.

Huo Junyu and Huo Jingyi knew that they were not as smart as their eldest brother, so after hearing what their eldest brother said, they immediately agreed.

Looking at the three pairs of bright, black and white eyes, Shen Qinglan did not refuse anymore.

While Shen Qinglan was drinking her porridge, Shu Yu briefly recounted what happened when she was unconscious.

Huo Zhanting has killed all the remaining rebels, and I heard that the knives used to chop people have been rolled up.

After the thirteenth prince became the crown prince, Emperor Jingren directly appointed Lu Huaizhu as the Grand Tutor and promoted Lu Jinghuai to the position of Minister of Rites, taking over the power of the Zhou family.

There were frequent personnel transfers in the court. Shen Qinglan understood what was going on when he heard about the job changes.

That was Emperor Jingren paving the way for the Thirteenth Prince.

Although the Thirteenth Prince is already the Crown Prince, he is still young. Emperor Jingren is afraid that the Crown Prince cannot control those ministers, so he continues to expand the number of people related to the Thirteenth Prince.

Among these people, Huo Zhanting is naturally particularly important.

Although Emperor Jingren was afraid of Huo Zhanting before and even wanted to kill him from time to time, the situation is different now.

The reason why Emperor Jingren dared to take action against Huo Zhanting at that time was because he was still young and strong. He felt that with him around, even if Huo Zhanting was replaced, there would not be any big problem.

But now it is different. His health is getting worse and worse, and it is only a matter of time before the Thirteenth Prince takes the throne.

If the Thirteenth Prince does not have a strong military force to protect him, how can he possibly sit firmly on the throne?

Therefore, Lu Huaizhu and Lu Jinghuai were the civil officials selected by Emperor Jingren for the Thirteenth Prince, and Huo Zhanting was the military general prepared by Emperor Jingren for the Thirteenth Prince.

Of course, for the sake of balance, Emperor Jingren did not move one person's position, and that was Prime Minister Jiang.

Although Prime Minister Jiang performed mediocrely during this turmoil, he did not collude with the Queen.

The shrewd Prime Minister Jiang knew that he couldn't take a stand lightly. After all, things had not come to the end yet, and it was possible that no matter who he took a stand for, he would lose everything.

This is what Emperor Jingren saw in Prime Minister Jiang.

After Shen Qinglan listened to Shu Yu's words, he had already made up his mind about the next step. He nodded slightly and asked:

"Is Shuwen not back yet?"

"Not yet..."

"How is General Nangong's injury?"

"I heard that he has saved his life for the time being, but he hasn't woken up yet. Miss Nangong even went to kill Wang Yu herself to avenge General Nangong, but there is one thing..."

After making sure that General Nangong's life was saved, Nangong Mingyue immediately rushed into the Heavenly Prison with the golden medal of immunity from death and a knife in hand.

In front of the people from the Ministry of Justice, Wang Yu was skinned alive piece by piece with a knife to avenge the arrow shot at him.

Everyone in the Ministry of Justice was scared and wanted to hold Nangong Mingyue accountable, but Nangong Mingyue had the golden medal of immunity from death, so who dared to touch her?

The most important thing is that Nangong Mingyue’s contribution in this matter was huge. Although Emperor Jingren has not yet had time to reward her, it is only a matter of time.

Those people from the Ministry of Justice thought about it and finally did not dare to make things difficult for Nangong Mingyue. They could only let Nangong Mingyue come and go freely with sad faces.

In the end, he could only write a memorial saying that Wang Yu was bitten to death by a rat in prison to fool the public.

Emperor Jingren didn't care about the truth. They were all going to die anyway, so who cared how they died?

Shen Qinglan was about to speak when he saw Shuyu, so he handed the empty bowl in his hand to Huo Junyan and asked:

"What's wrong? Just tell me."

"General Nangong Ze is still in our house. Miss Nangong has come here several times, but General Nangong Ze has not been seen."

When Shen Qinglan heard this, she knew that Nangong Ze was homesick.

She smiled, said nothing, and just waved at the little ones.

The little guys immediately came over, looking curious.

"Have you contacted Duoduo these days?"

"Yes, Duoduo said that Aunt Nangong was going to divorce his father, so he had to take care of the Shangshu Mansion's property in the mansion. He would inherit it in the future and give it to Aunt Nangong as a dowry."

Huo Junyu has the best relationship with Qian Duoduo. When he said this, he couldn't help but nodded heavily with empathy:

"Mother, if you want to divorce father in the future, Yu'er will keep all the money in the Zhan Palace and give it to you as a dowry!"

Huo Zhanting just came back and heard his filial son's remarks at the door. He was so angry that he strode forward and slapped Huo Junyu on the head.

Huo Junyu exclaimed, held his head and turned around, just about to get angry, but he saw a face that was even angrier than his own, so he immediately swallowed his words back.

Not only that, he also smartly turned around and hugged Shen Qinglan's arm, asking for protection.

Shen Qinglan patted the back of the little guy's hand, glanced at Huo Zhanting with a reproachful look, and said soothingly:

"Don't be afraid. Mother needs your help with something now."

After getting Shen Qinglan's approval, Huo Junyu immediately felt relieved. He nodded his head heavily and gave Huo Zhanting a provocative look.

Huo Zhanting felt that his fist was really hard.

Shen Qinglan pretended not to see Huo Zhanting, and only whispered a few words to the three little guys, and the little guys immediately responded:

"Don't worry, mother. I promise to complete the task!"

Because Huo Zhanting was emitting such a cold aura at the moment, the three little guys agreed, said something to Shen Qinglan, and turned around and ran away.

Shuyu couldn't stand Huo Zhanting's low mood, so she just followed him out and closed the door considerately.

After all the "outsiders" in the room had left, Huo Zhanting walked over and sat next to Shen Qinglan.

Then he stretched out his long arms and held the person in his arms, leaning his head on Shen Qinglan's shoulder, and said with a hint of accusation:

"Princess, are you still planning to divorce me?"
