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

After the two arrived at Lanyuan, Shen Zhixiu went to see Shen Wu's body, and then went to the woodshed behind to have a look.

Su Qingyu was worried about Shen Yue and thought she was still in Lanyuan, so she sent someone to ask. When she learned that Li Yunzhou had sent Shen Yue back to the West Courtyard, Su Qingyu was slightly relieved.

Just as he was about to return to the west courtyard, he saw Han Cui beside the old lady hurriedly looking for her.

"Third Master, Third Madam, the old lady already knows about the eldest lady's affairs."

Shen Zhixiu and Su Qingyu looked at each other, and they knew in their hearts that there was no way they could hide this matter from the old lady.

I had to turn around and go to Qingyuan Residence. I had to appease the old lady first before talking about anything else.

After noon, Li Chaoyun left home and went directly to Prince Rong's mansion.

When she arrived, Rong Huai was watching the servants decorate the mourning hall in the front yard. He was dressed in mourning clothes and looked sad. All details of the mourning hall must be checked personally.

Li Chaoyun walked to his side and said, "Cousin, let me express my condolences."

Rong Huai was a little surprised as to why she came at this time. He thought it was the Shen family who asked her to deliver a message.

"My cousin is interested, why are you here now?"

Li Chaoyun naturally thought of his words, "Although I am the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, I am also a close relative of the Rong family. I wanted to come and see if there is anything I need help with."

Then he said: "The prince's concubine passed away suddenly. There is nothing strange here, right? Could someone have taken advantage of her uneasiness and deliberately said something to her? Do you want me to help check it out at the Shen family?"

As she spoke, she stared at Rong Huai, trying to get clues from it.

Rong Huai didn't know that Li Chaoyun came up with the idea and thought she was just asking casually.

So he hid the emotions in his eyes, sighed and said: "I was in Lanyuan at that time, and Wu'er was indeed impulsive and took a dead end. The people who served him were actually considerate, so I didn't see anything unusual. "

Li Chaoyun sensed that something was wrong with Rong Huai, but couldn't find out anything.

She didn't dare to delve deeper, "Since there's nothing going on with my cousin, I'll go see Aunt Rong again."

Rong Huai nodded and ordered people to take Li Chaoyun to the inner courtyard of the Rong family.

Although the Rong family had already announced the death, the guests had just received the news and had not yet started to arrive. Therefore, the main courtyard where Princess Rong lived was still relatively quiet at this time.

When Shen Yue entered, Princess Rongjun was talking to the grandmother beside her, "Send a letter to my uncle and ask Fu'er and Que'er to come to the capital. Whoever the prince falls in love with will be the prince's concubine."

Li Chaoyun went in and saluted Princess Rong, then said directly, "Has Aunt started choosing a successor for Cousin Rong? I have a better candidate."

You have to be straightforward when talking to Princess Rong. If you speak in an ambiguous way, she may not understand the deeper meaning behind your words.

Princess Rongjun signaled Li Chaoyun to sit down, and then asked in surprise: "Who is more suitable? Is there anyone more suitable than my niece?"

Li Chaoyun knew that she had been trying to promote her family in recent years, so she smiled and said, "It depends on whether your aunt cares more about your family's reputation or your cousin Rong's future."

Princess Rongjun was puzzled, "What do you mean? What happened to Huai'er's future?"

Li Chaoyun explained to her bit by bit, "Aunt, please don't forget that in addition to my cousin, the Rong family also has three concubines."

"My cousin now needs a powerful in-law family more than a close relationship."

"How much help can my aunt give to my cousin by telling her about her maternal niece? The Rong family has a weak foundation. If the Yue family is unable to help, my cousin will not have anyone to help him in the court."

Li Chaoyun's words made Princess Rongjun's face change.

It was about her son's future, so she carefully considered every word. I have to admit that Li Chaoyun is right.

It's okay for her niece to be a concubine, but she really can't afford to be a concubine. She was so focused on promoting her family that she forgot about this.

She looked at Li Chaoyun, "Then whose daughter is the suitable candidate you mentioned?"

Li Chaoyun didn't show off and replied, "It's our eldest daughter-in-law, Shen Yue."

Princess Rongjun frowned, "She's still the daughter of the Shen family? It's not your father-in-law who asked you to come, right? Did he think the Rong family was a good home and was afraid that we would decide on the candidate for his successor, so he asked you to come? ?”

Li Chaoyun's mouth twitched, thinking that Aunt Rong was really bold. How could it be her father-in-law's idea? If her father-in-law hadn't considered the overall situation, he would have broken with the Rong family.

"It's really not the case. I just heard my aunt talk about it and I suddenly remembered it."

"I think that through this matter, we can repair the relationship between the Rong family and the Shen family. Auntie, don't forget, there is also a powerful elder in the Shen family."

"Secondly, although Shen Yue was born to my aunt, she was recorded in my mother-in-law's name, and she can be regarded as a legitimate daughter of the Shen family. With her age and appearance, after entering the house, is my aunt still worried about not having a grandson to hold her? "

Princess Rongjun was a little moved when she thought of Shen Zhixiu's influence in the court. Then I remembered that Shen Yue's appearance was indeed not comparable to that of her niece.

Li Chaoyun is right, no matter how you look at it, this is a good marriage.

Princess Rongjun said immediately: "Then I will discuss it with your cousin tonight. If he agrees, I will go to the Shen family to mention it tomorrow. If the Shen family agrees, it will be a good time to enter the house in one year."

Li Chaoyun said hurriedly: "I see that my cousin has a deep love for the Crown Princess. If you propose marriage to him now, even if you are talking about the royal princess, I am afraid he will not agree."

"Why don't my aunt go to the Shen family to settle the matter first? My parents have ordered a matchmaker, so how can my cousin disobey you? After all, you are doing it for his own good."

Princess Rongjun thought the same thing and said, "Okay, then tomorrow I will go to the Shen family to find out what the old lady is like."

Li Chaoyun was afraid that she would not speak up and spoil things, so he asked again: "After you go, mention more of the two daughters left by the Crown Princess. Only Miss Third, the aunt, can take care of the Crown Princess, so that the Crown Princess can rest in peace. The old lady is the most compassionate, If you say that, I'm sure she will agree."

"This is all for my cousin's future. My aunt must speak softly and lower her attitude tomorrow."

Princess Rongjun nodded and said, "I understand all this, so don't worry."

Li Chaoyun actually wasn't too relieved, but he could only give a few words of advice. When Princess Rongjun enters the palace tomorrow, she will go to Qingyuan Residence to persuade the old lady.

Not long after Li Chaoyun returned to the Shen family, the Rong family brought a coffin to the Shen family to welcome Shen Wu's body back. Including the twelve servants who were killed by Su Qingyu's stick, they were also taken back.

Although the Shen family did not need to set up a mourning hall, everyone from the master to the servants looked sad.

After Su Qingyu and Shen Zhixiu persuaded the old lady for a long time, they went to the west courtyard to comfort Shen Yue. After Shen Yue heard that her grandmother was not in good spirits after hearing the news, she went to Qingyuanju to stay with her at night.

Lying in bed at night, Su Qingyu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Shen Zhixiu hugged her from behind, "What's wrong? You're restless."

Su Qingyu sighed, "Shen Yue is scared today. I originally wanted her to stay in the west courtyard and I would sleep with her. She won't have nightmares tonight, right?"

Shen Zhixiu's warm lips pressed against the back of her neck, "Don't worry, there are so many servants in Qingyuan Residence taking care of her."

Su Qingyu couldn't help but cursed: "It's really unlucky. It was Shen Ying last time and Shen Wu this time. These two sisters are targeting Shen Yue, right?"

Thinking of Li Chaoyun in the dark again, Su Qingyu felt a little uneasy. Shen Yue was different from her. She didn't know that this inner house was a place where people could eat people without spitting out their bones.

"Third Master, I'll ask Shen Yue in the next two days. If she agrees, let's settle the marriage with the Song family."

"After we get engaged, let her stay with me for a while, and I'll teach her how to manage the house."

Shen Zhixiu nodded and said: "I think so too, why don't I have a word with Marquis Zhongyi tomorrow?"

Su Qingyu quickly shook her head, "I'd better ask Shen Yue first. No matter how good Song Hongshen is, Shen Yue has to nod."
