A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Qingyuan was outside, and Qinglian was waiting anxiously.

My brother made a big mistake and I don’t know what will happen to him in the end. Hong Ye, who had just been dragged out, was said to be killed with a stick.

Qinglian clasped her hands together and paced back and forth at the door with her lower lip pressed tightly together.

Soon, several ladies and gentlemen came out. Qinglian stepped aside and did not dare to say anything, her eyes fell on her brother who followed behind.

When everyone in the main room left, Qinglian knelt down in front of Su Qingyu with a plop.

"Thank you, Third Madam, for sparing my brother."

She had just heard from Pearl that the Third Lady only punished her brother with ten strokes of the cane. She knew that the Third Lady had shown mercy, and she made up her mind to be loyal to the Third Lady from now on.

Su Qingyu signaled her to get up, then turned to Zhenzhu, "Go back and get a pack of silver ingots and give them to Qinglian."

On the way back to the west courtyard, Su Qingyu and Shen Zhixiu intertwined their fingers.

Su Qingyu asked him, "I just asked Wen Zhu to help interrogate Wu Lao Qi, why did I alert the Third Master?"

Shen Zhixiu smiled and said: "How dare Wenzhu hide such a big thing from me."

While talking, his thumb was gently stroking the back of Su Qingyu's hand. Su Qingyu only felt itchy. She wanted to withdraw her hand but he held it tightly.

"This is not a big deal. It cannot be compared with what happened in the third master's court."

But Shen Zhixiu turned to her ear and said seriously: "I don't agree with what the madam said. For me, anything related to the madam is a big deal."

Su Qingyu chuckled softly, "If your colleagues in the court heard what Third Master said, they would probably laugh at you."

Shen Zhixiu suddenly coughed in embarrassment when he thought of what happened in the morning meeting today.

Su Qingyu turned her head in surprise and stared at him with her twinkling eyes, "What is Third Master's reaction?"

Shen Zhixiu didn't hide anything and explained, "Yesterday when Duke Wei returned to Beijing, he asked me for a drink. I agreed to accompany my wife to dinner, but I declined."

"He heard that I was going back home to have dinner with you, but he said that I was henpecked."

"I didn't take it seriously. If you are henpecked, just be henpecked. It's not a shame to listen to my wife."

"I didn't expect that he drank too much at night and spread the word. By this morning, the emperor knew about it and even made a few jokes on me."

When Shen Zhixiu said this, he laughed twice.

Su Qingyu's smile froze on her face and she stopped in her tracks.

"The emperor asked in the court?"

"Yes."

"Has Third Master explained it?"

"No explanation, I admit it."

Su Qingyu's eyes widened, "Doesn't it mean that all the civil and military officials know that you are henpecked?"

Shen Zhixiu nodded seriously, "What Madam said is correct. It may not only be civil and military officials, but also everyone with some status in Beijing knows about it."

Su Qingyu's face immediately fell, "Then why didn't Third Master explain? You are not henpecked at all."

The main reason is that she never interferes in Shen Zhixiu's affairs. Where does this henpecky thing start?

Seeing Su Qingyu looking like she was about to cry, Shen Zhixiu smiled and joked, "What's wrong, madam?"

Su Qingyu rolled her eyes at him, "What's wrong? How can I go out to meet people?"

It would be fine if she was really a shrew, but she thinks she is quite considerate and reasonable, and now those people may not know what to say about her.

Shen Zhixiu put his arm around Su Qingyu's shoulders and coaxed softly: "It's my fault. From now on, I won't say a word if Madam doesn't want me to say it."

Su Qingyu couldn't help laughing again, "If the third master's words get out, this reputation of being henpecked will be confirmed."

"The third master is a dignified minister and the second assistant in the cabinet, and he is not afraid of people's jokes."

The corners of Shen Zhixiu's lips rose, "I'm afraid those who laugh at me are not getting along with each other. When the late emperor was in power, Mr. Xu, the Minister of War, was famous for being henpecked. Later, he fought with the Tatars in Zhangye for three months. Who dared to laugh at him?"

"A man's reputation as a man is earned by himself. You can't say that showing off your power in front of your wife will make you manly."

Su Qingyu suddenly remembered what the grandma beside her had said while chatting. The more incompetent a man is, the more domineering he is at home.

The two of them chatted and laughed and returned to the west courtyard. Su Qingyu arranged for someone to keep an eye on Shen Wu's courtyard. If her prediction is good, Mr. Qian will soon go to Mrs. Chen.

At this time, in Shen Wu's courtyard, Mrs. Chen was sitting beside Shen Wu's bed, mother and daughter holding each other's arms and crying.

Shen Wu didn't even know who to blame for this. Her mother was already like this, and she couldn't blame anyone.

But the child in her belly was innocent. If the child was gone, it was hard to say whether she would be able to give birth to another child in the future.

She often went back to Shen's house these days. In the morning, the prince even told her to be careful not to have fetal gas. How was she going to explain to the prince, how was she going to explain to her father-in-law and mother-in-law?

Shen Wu's thoughts wandered as he cried, and suddenly he heard Li Chaoyun gritting his teeth and saying: "Su Qingyu must have known about this for a long time, and she has been waiting for today."

"What did you say? You said she knew it a long time ago?" Shen Wu wiped the tears on his face and looked at Li Chaoyun.

Li Chaoyun sat on the brocade table beside the bed. Hearing this, he sneered and replied: "Look at the witnesses today. If she didn't know earlier, how could she have witnesses so quickly?"

"Everything today is probably under her control."

Shen Wu recalled that when the two met, she said she wanted to go see Aunt Xiang with Su Qingyu. Su Qingyu's expression at that time was intriguing.

The words he used to persuade her were probably because he was afraid that he would question her after something happened. The funny thing is that she was so frightened at the time that she didn't even think about who to blame, and she didn't question Su Qingyu.

Thinking back to that scene, Shen Wu's hatred surged to the sky. Su Qingyu could have stopped her. If she had, her child would not have been in danger.

Mrs. Chen could only comfort Shen Wu, "It's important that you take good care of yourself. Mother will take care of these things."

Li Chaoyun also said: "Yes, the eldest sister only needs to take good care of her health and strive to give birth to a legitimate son as soon as possible. As for the affairs in the house, I am still there."

What happened today made Li Chaoyun look at Su Qingyu with admiration. No wonder she could marry Shen Zhixiu, this woman's methods are really ruthless.

Not long after, a maid came in with inducing labor medicine. After Shen Wu drank it, he started to have seizures not long after. In the evening, a stillborn baby was born, a baby boy.

Chen took care of Shen Wu every step of the way, and Li Chaoyun also stayed here.

At the end of Youshi, Shen Wu fell into a drowsy sleep. Chen and Li Chaoyun were resting in the banquet room outside, both looking tired.

"You've been working hard all day, go back and rest." Mrs. Chen said to Li Chaoyun.

In my heart, I couldn't be more satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Not only her family background and appearance are good, but she also supports Shen Zhao sincerely.

Li Chaoyun was indeed tired and stood up to leave.

Lu Zhu, the maid next to Mrs. Chen, suddenly walked in in a hurry, "Madam, Mr. Qian wants to see you for something."

"what's up?"

"My slave heard that something happened to Mr. Qian's son. Are you here to ask Madam for help?"

Mrs. Chen waved her hands and said impatiently, "If you ask him to go back, just say that I am grounded and it is inconvenient to see him."

Luzhu nodded and turned around, then walked in again a short while later, with a somewhat flustered expression on his face.

"Madam, Mr. Qian said that if Madam refuses to see him, it won't be as simple as grounding him."

"Look, slave, he is so anxious that he jumps over the wall."
