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

Shen Zhixiu heard this and said in a deep voice: "I don't know about this. Where is he? Lead the way."

Lin Wuchen looked at Shen Zhixiu's gloomy face and wondered, could he really not know?

The three of them went to the main hall of the outer courtyard not far away.

Still far away, I heard the greetings coming from inside.

"Old madam, Su Hou, we will be a family from now on."

"The princess is in love with you. Being able to marry the prince of Shan County is a great achievement for our Su family."

Shen Zhixiu strode into the main hall, glanced coldly at the people in the main hall, and finally his eyes fell on Su Chengye.

"The Su family is getting married to Prince Shan County? Which lady is Xu?"

Princess Yongjia, Su Chengye, and the old lady were all stunned for a moment when they saw Shen Zhixiu suddenly come in.

Su Chengye hurriedly greeted him, "Master Shen, why are you here?"

Princess Yongjia wants to marry her daughter to Shen Zhixiu, and her attitude cannot be more gentle.

"Master Shen, why are you so busy today?"

Shen Zhixiu gave Princess Yongjia and Mrs. Su a junior salute, and then said, "Suhou hasn't answered my words yet."

Su Qingyu and Lin Wuchen also walked in at this time, and they stood aside silently, wanting to see what was going on.

Princess Yongjia knew that the matter could no longer be concealed, so she stepped forward to explain to Shen Zhixiu: "Sir Shen, I am here to propose marriage to Su Qingyu, the eldest daughter of the Su family, and Li Yunzhou, the fourth young master of the Li family."

When Su Qingyu heard the words Li Yunzhou, she frowned subconsciously.

As the concubine of Prince Shanjun, Li Yunzhou was once envied by countless people because his aunt, Princess Yongjia, treated him as her own.

But in his previous life, Li Yunzhou and Song Hongshen, the illegitimate son of the Marquis of Loyalty, had made great contributions together. The two of them joined forces to wipe out the Liao Kingdom that had been entrenched in the northeast of the Great Zhou.

The first thing Song Hongshen did when he returned to Beijing was to divorce Su Yihui, who was having an affair with Xu Liangping. However, after Li Yunzhou returned to Beijing, he announced on the day he was crowned king that he had severed all ties with the Prince of Shan County.

Everyone in the capital city realized that Princess Yongjia's kindness to her illegitimate son was all an act. In fact, Li Yunzhou had been bullied and abused in the Prince Shan's mansion.

Now the emperor was furious and severely punished Prince Shan and Princess Yongjia, and also gave him a separate mansion.

Su Qingyu's eyes narrowed slightly. Did Princess Yongjia want to bring her back to the house and abuse her together?

Shen Zhixiu asked in a deep voice: "Su Hou agreed?"

Su Chengye nodded subconsciously, "Agreed."

Shen Zhixiu's expression was indifferent, with no obvious emotion or anger. The question made Su Chengye break into a cold sweat.

"Su Hou has betrothed my unmarried wife to you?"

"Ok?"

Su Chengye quickly took out the signed divorce document and carefully handed it to Shen Zhixiu, "Master Shen, please look at this. This is the divorce document sent by the Shen family."

Shen Zhixiu took it, opened it and took a look, feeling a sudden chill rising all over his body.

This is indeed the seal of the Shen family, and the Su family has also signed it. Legally speaking, this document of breaking off the engagement has come into effect.

He turned to look at Princess Yongjia and asked, "Did the princess send this document of breaking off the engagement? After the engagement is broken off, will the princess directly arrange a marriage for the fourth young master?"

Shen Zhixiu's eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, causing Princess Yongjia to look away unconsciously. Then he laughed sarcastically and said: "I am entrusted with the matter of canceling the engagement. As for the engagement, I am not in a hurry."

After saying that, Princess Yongjia left on the pretext that she had something else to do.

Shen Zhixiu put away the divorce document, thought for a while and said, "I want to go back to confirm the authenticity of this document. That's all for today."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out. When passing by Lin Wuchen, Shen Zhixiu whispered: "Give me two days, and I will give you an explanation."

This was said to Lin Wuchen and Su Qingyu.

Shen Zhixiu went straight back home from the Su family. The first thing he did after entering the house was to gather all the family members together.

Mrs. Shen, the eldest master of the Shen family, Shen Zhiheng, and the eldest Mrs. Chen. The second master is Shen Zhishu, and the second wife is Yang.

After the six people sat down according to their age, Shen Zhixiu handed the divorce document to Mrs. Shen and said, "Mother, is this what you mean?"

Mrs. Shen opened the document and took a look, her expression immediately changed.

She looked at Mrs. Chen with cold eyes, "Boss, wife, is this your handiwork?"

"You are so calculating, you dare to do such a thing."

As he spoke, he threw away the divorce document in his hand.

Shen Zhiheng was startled after taking one look, and angrily scolded Mrs. Chen, "Have you never asked your mother He Zhixiu about such a big matter?"

The second lady Yang who was sitting on the side also took it and looked at it, but she didn't say anything, but her eyes were filled with a dark glow of excitement.

Chen hesitated and said: "Princess Yongjia came to me several times, and I was embarrassed to refuse. Besides, Su Qingyu is really not a good match for Zhixiu."

Shen Zhixiu frowned. He didn't want to teach his elder sister-in-law a lesson, so he looked at the old lady.

The old lady was so angry that she slapped the sandalwood table hard, "Can you tell me if I am a good match for Zhixiu? What does it have to do with you?"

"My own children have not been well-disciplined yet, so I come to take care of things in my brother-in-law's room. Have I been too tolerant to you in the past few years?"

"From today onwards, the second daughter-in-law will be in charge of the middle child in the mansion."

Yang's expression was overjoyed, but she tried hard to maintain a dignified expression.

"Yes, mother, my daughter-in-law will definitely live up to her mother's expectations."

The old lady glanced at the few people again with cold eyes and said in a deep voice: "Don't think that I don't know the twists and turns in your hearts, please calm down for me. Whoever dares to make the house restless, I will never end with her."

"You all go out, Zhixiu stays."

When only mother and son were left in the house, the old lady looked at Shen Zhixiu and said, "What do you think about this? This marriage can be called off. Do you plan to continue the marriage with Prince Shanjun, or will you look at girls from other families?"

Shen Zhixiu clasped his fingers on the table and said softly: "If the marriage is cancelled, you can still get married again."

The old lady looked at him in surprise, did he mean that he liked Su Qingyu?

In the past, he always resisted every time marriage was discussed. When discussing marriage with Prince Shan, he just said casually.

It’s really not easy to be re-employed so seriously.

A smile appeared on Mrs. Shen's face, "Since you think so, then I will personally go to the Su family tomorrow to finalize this matter."

Shen Zhixiu suddenly remembered Su Qingyu's indifferent expression at the Su family just now when she heard that the Shen family was going to break off the engagement.

He suddenly said: "Mom, don't go tomorrow. I... will ask her again."

"She has to be willing."

The old lady glanced at Shen Zhixiu slyly and asked, "What if she doesn't agree?"

Shen Zhixiu said without hesitation: "Forget it if you don't agree. How can we force marriage?"

If the person who knows Shen Zhixiu best in the world must be Mrs. Shen.

She gave him a meaningful look and said, "Then you should ask quickly and give me an accurate answer."

No matter what Shen Zhixiu thought, the fact that the Shen family and the Su family broke off the engagement had already become a fact. In less than a day, the news spread throughout the capital.

Su Qingyu felt a lot more relaxed. She focused on the store for the past two days and worked with other grain merchants to lower the price of grain.

In two days, the price of grain in the capital dropped to two taels of silver per stone. As Shen Zhixiu had said, not a single grain of grain could be transported out of the four gates of the capital.

Because food suddenly became cheaper, the people stopped robbing, and their faces showed the joy of surviving the catastrophe.

That day, Su Qingyu took Su Shunci to the shop, intending to teach her how to deal with the shopkeepers.

When it was almost noon, Su Shunci took Su Qingyu's hand and asked, "Sister, they all say that Ruyilou's elbow is delicious. Have you tried it?"

Su Qingyu couldn't help laughing, and pinched Su Shunci's face and said, "Big sister hasn't eaten it either, so it's a good opportunity for us to try it at noon."

In the private room on the second floor of Ruyi Building, Su Qingyu ordered all the signature dishes of Ruyi Building.

When the waiter was serving the food, someone suddenly walked in behind him.

"Sister Qingyu, what a coincidence?"
