A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 525 Desperate Mandarin Ducks
Emperor Xuande's words put an abrupt end to Li Chaoyun's crying and pleading.
She fell to the ground in despair and watched Chen Ping being taken away.
At this moment, Chen Ping's hands were handcuffed behind his back and something was stuffed in his mouth. He couldn't make a sound and could only look at Li Chaoyun in despair.
Especially when he looked at Li Chaoyun's abdomen, his eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment.
He regretted buying a house for no reason. If he didn't buy the house, these people wouldn't have the opportunity to make plans.
Su Yuanzhou glanced back and forth between the two with a playful gaze. The drama performed by this pair of star-crossed lovers was much more interesting than that performed by a troupe of actors.
Soon Chen Ping was taken away, and Emperor Xuande did not look at Li Chaoyun again. Li Chaoyun was the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, and the Shen and Li families had to discuss and resolve the following matters.
Things were almost done, and Puyi reminded from the side, "Your Majesty, it's time to return to the palace."
As long as the emperor leaves the palace, Puyi has to be on high alert to deal with it, and he is the most nervous one.
So when he saw that things were almost done, he was the first to urge the emperor to return to the palace.
There is no way. The emperor is outside the palace, and his head is like being hung on his belt.
After Puyi said this, others followed suit and advised the emperor to return to the palace, saying that safety was the most important thing.
Afterwards, Emperor Xuande returned to the palace. Su Yuanzhou and Song Hongshen continued to accompany him, while the other civil officials dispersed.
Shen Zhixiu did not follow the emperor into the palace, but ordered someone to take Li Chaoyun back to the Shen family, and sent someone to notify Shanning Hou Li Jingchuan and Princess Yongjia.
No matter what, this matter must have a conclusion, and the Shen family must give an explanation.
Soon Shen Zhixiu brought his people back to the Shen family.
When the firearms exploded, Su Qingyu quietly returned to the mansion. When she heard the news in the West Courtyard, she knew that the matter was settled.
When Su Qingyu led people to the hall, Li Chaoyun and four maids and four guards were already kneeling on the ground.
Of course, Li Chaoyun refused to kneel, but the Shen family's maid did not hold back after receiving the Third Master's order. She pressed her down and made her kneel in the middle of the hall.
Seeing Su Qingyu coming in, Li Chaoyun looked up and glared at her, "You did it on purpose. You knew about my affairs a long time ago and deliberately made me lose face in front of the emperor."
"Su Qingyu, I have no grudge against you, why do you always go against me?"
At this moment, everyone from the Shen family had not arrived yet, and there were only a few guards and servants in the hall.
Shen Zhixiu was not there, and he said he had gone to invite the old lady personally.
Su Qingyu knew that he was afraid that the old lady couldn't bear it, so he wanted to persuade her in advance.
Li Chaoyun's hysterical words made Su Qingyu smile slightly, with mockery in her eyes.
She squatted down in front of Li Chaoyun and looked at her at eye level.
"No grudges or hatred, how can you have the nerve to say this?"
"Let's not talk about anything else. Just talk about how you treated my brother over the years. Even if I cut you into pieces, it would not be enough to relieve the hatred in my heart."
Su Qingyu did not hide the murderous intent in her eyes, and her sharp gaze was like a poisoned knife.
The suffering and humiliation my brother endured over the years are ten or a hundred times worse than what Li Chaoyun is experiencing today.
Li Chaoyun couldn't stand the damage to his reputation? How did his brother survive all these years?
Once reborn, two lives. When Su Qingyu faced this kind of thing, she never showed any mercy.
Li Chaoyun was stunned when she heard this. Yes, Su Yuanzhou was Su Qingyu's biological brother. She almost forgot.
He thought that Su Yuanzhou was really lucky. His adoptive mother was Princess Yongning, who was favored by the emperor, and his biological sister was the third wife of the Shen family. He himself had made great contributions and won the emperor's favor. If the Li family was defeated by him, it would not be unfair.
Li Chaoyun, who had always been full of fighting spirit, felt timid for the first time.
She subconsciously covered her lower abdomen, and at this moment she had only one thought, which was to keep the child.
Seeing Li Chaoyun's dazed and frightened look, Su Qingyu felt extremely bored. She stood up and sat down beside him, drinking tea calmly.
Not long after, Shen Zhixiu came in, supporting the old lady. Behind them were Shen Zhishu and the second lady Yang.
Su Qingyu stood up, bowed, and greeted Yang.
Yang asked in a low voice: "What happened? Weren't you staying at the Li family to take care of your pregnancy? How did you end up causing such a scandal?"
Su Qingyu shook her head. "I don't know yet. I only know that this matter has become a big deal and has alarmed the emperor."
Yang glanced at Li Chaoyun with disdain, "It's really a disgrace to the Shen family, and you don't even think it's disgusting."
The two sisters-in-law sat down on the side. In such an occasion, they naturally had to listen to what the two masters and the old lady had to say.
The old lady already knew the whole story, and her face was terribly gloomy.
If Li Chaoyun didn't want to remain faithful to Shen Zhao, she could have proposed a divorce, and the Shen family would not have disapproved. But doing something like this while observing mourning was tantamount to completely trampling on the Shen family's reputation.
If our ancestors knew about this, they would probably be very angry and unable to rest in peace.
The old lady didn't speak to Li Chaoyun, nor did she even look at her.
Instead, he asked Shen Zhixiu in a cold voice, "When will Marquis Shanning and Princess Yongjia arrive?"
Shen Zhixiu replied: "I have sent someone to notify them. It's about time now."
The old lady hummed, squinted her eyes and rubbed the tourmaline beads in her hand, and said nothing more.
Su Qingyu glanced at the old lady worriedly, then exchanged a glance with Shen Zhixiu, obviously worried about the old lady's health.
Shen Zhixiu gave her a comforting look. His mother had been through so many things over the years that this was not something she could not accept.
Soon, Wenzhu came in to report, "Old Madam, Second Master, Third Master, Marquis Shanning and Princess Yongjia are here."
The old lady said in a deep voice: "Please."
Normally, Shen Zhixiu and Shen Zhishu should go out to greet them, but the two brothers just sat there without moving.
When Princess Yongjia entered the room, she saw her daughter kneeling on the ground.
She immediately stepped forward to help Li Chaoyun up, and questioned the old lady in dissatisfaction.
"Even if she made a mistake out of confusion, she is still pregnant with the Shen family's heir. How could you bear to treat her like this?"
Su Qingyu, who knew the inside story, snorted and laughed. Even at this time, Princess Yongjia did not forget to humiliate the Shen family.
Are you going to use a bastard to hold the Shen family hostage?
Thinking this in his heart, he said, "We don't know when she hooked up with someone. It's hard to say whether this child is from the Shen family."
The old lady and Shen Zhishu hadn't thought about it yet, but their expressions changed after hearing Su Qingyu's words. If this was true, then Li Chaoyun deserved to die.
Princess Yongjia immediately retorted, "Mrs. Shen San, please be careful with your words. Don't say anything without evidence. Chao Yun was wrong in this matter, but she was seduced by the treacherous man Chen Ping."
"I can guarantee that the baby in your belly is the eldest young master of the Shen family."
Chen Ping can no longer be saved. The best solution to this matter right now is to quell the rumors and let the Shen family forgive Li Chaoyun.
As long as Li Chaoyun is still the eldest lady of the Shen family, this matter will fade away after she gives birth to the child.
She knew that the Shen family would not easily forgive, unless for the sake of the child.
