I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

Mu Shaoheng was very strong and did not give Madam Gao any chance to fight for it. He left her with the "choose one of the two" option and got up to say goodbye.

Madam Gao quickly stood up and tried to make one last effort:

"Please stay, King Zhenbian. I have one or two words to say to you in private. Please spare me a moment to talk."

This means to avoid everyone and have a private conversation.

After saying that, Madam Gao made a "please" gesture towards the inner room.

Mu Shaoheng did not refuse, and followed Madam Gao to the inner room very politely.

After dismissing all the servants, Madam Gao lowered her voice and said, "Prince Zhenbian, if my granddaughter wants to be your legal wife...you can set any conditions."

In other words, as long as Gao Shu can marry Shen Yixiao and become his principal wife, Mu Shaoheng will try his best to meet any conditions she proposes.

In order to facilitate the marriage and save the reputation of the Duke of Zhenguo and Gao Shu, Old Madam Gao even added a sentence:

"Even if I can't do what you ask, I will ask my grandson Gao Ni to do it for you."

How can everything go smoothly when we live in this world? There will always be times when it is inconvenient for us to do things and we need help from others.

The temptation is huge.

Unfortunately, he seduced the wrong person, Mu Shaoheng didn't fall for it.

Mu Shaoheng simply refused:

"Madam Gao, there is no need to discuss this matter any further. Either you bring her in a sedan chair, or you accept a compensation of 100,000 taels of silver. You can discuss this with Gao Shu for a few days."

After saying that, Mu Shaoheng bowed again and said goodbye.

Turn around and leave.

His resolute and cold back gave Madam Gao a headache.

It really gives me a headache.

Logically speaking, since their granddaughter was raped, the girl's family can justifiably go to the boy's house and make a big fuss.

You can propose whatever conditions you want, and the man’s family must accept them unconditionally and be eager to pay compensation.

But the man’s family is from the Southwestern Mu Mansion, which is too powerful and there is nothing they can do about it.

Well, it can't be said that there is nothing we can do. If Gao Ni gets involved, it can be completely resolved. But the problem is that Gao Ni will never ask whether Gao Shu lives or dies.

This resulted in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion being completely unable to compete with the Southwestern Mu Mansion.

In addition, although Mu Shaoheng is usually very kind to Gao Ni, Fu Yuzheng, Fu Yushu and others, he seems to be a very easy-to-talk to person.

But these are all illusions.

Mu Shaoheng is actually a tough nut to crack. It is extremely difficult to convince him to change anything.

"Alas." Through the open red wooden window, Mrs. Gao looked at Mu Shaoheng's departing back and sighed helplessly.

At this moment, Gao Shu broke free from the restraints of the mother-in-law, ran over anxiously and asked, "Grandma, what is the final result of your discussion? I want to marry and become Mrs. Shen?"

Be Mrs. Shen?

Shen Yixiao has expressed her opinion like that, but Gao Shu is still daydreaming?

Old Madam Gao glanced at her indifferently, not even bothering to say anything. She simply waved her hand to signal Gao Shu to leave and not bother her now.

The trusted nanny knew that her master was upset, so she hurried forward and pulled Gao Shu out of the room.

"Good nanny, please tell me quickly, what is the final result of the negotiations? Should I marry into the Shen family?" Gao Shu asked anxiously.

The trusted nanny pulled Gao Shu into the yard and whispered, "They refused to marry her. They said she could only be a concubine or accept a compensation of 100,000 taels. She could only choose one of the two."

"What?" Gao Shu was immediately fed up and started yelling like a madman again, "Didn't grandma negotiate with the King of Zhenbian? And this is the result of the negotiation? How incompetent!"

What?

You actually despise your own grandmother for being incompetent?

After hearing this, the confidant nanny quickly covered Gao Shu's mouth and warned her, "Young lady, what nonsense are you talking about? If you can't control your mouth, be careful of the family law."

Family law treatment?

If it were any other day, Gao Shu might really be scared, but right now she was so emotional that her brain couldn't keep up with her mouth and she was only concerned with venting her emotions.

Gao Shu pulled away the hand that was covering her mouth and started to shout again:

"My granddaughter was bullied, and as a grandmother I couldn't protect her. If this isn't incompetence, what is it?"

The confidant nanny was so anxious that she covered Gao Shu's mouth again and said:

"Oh my, my dear, the old lady has tried her best. But the other party is the extremely powerful King Zhenbian, a very difficult person to talk to. How can we do whatever we want?"

This time Gao Shu was smart for once and actually understood - her grandmother had no power and could not defeat Mu Shaoheng. Therefore, Mu Shaoheng disdained to accept what his grandmother said and the proposal she proposed.

"Then let's get someone with power and high status to negotiate with King Zhenbian, and the problem can be solved smoothly!" Gao Shu's eyes sparkled.

As for that person who holds power and a high position, who is he?

Well, with Gao Shu's brain, the only person she could think of was her aunt the queen.

Gao Shu did what she said. She immediately broke free from the nanny's restraints and ran out.

"Miss, Miss, where are you going?" The trusted nanny shouted anxiously.

But Gao Shu wouldn't pay any attention to her. She didn't even look at her and quickly disappeared out of the courtyard gate without looking back.
