After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Chapter 395: Concubine Ning

Madam Li's words successfully attracted Shen Nanzhi's attention. What? She was actually the little emperor's aunt?

It was a taboo to know the little emperor's biological mother, and no one dared to mention it. However, Shen Nanzhi had learned about it from documents. His biological mother was Concubine Ning, the most beloved concubine of the late emperor, but she died of complications during childbirth.

As for how the child ended up leaving the palace, no one knew as it involved royal privacy.

However, Shen Nanzhi still remembered the vague words in the intelligence, that the Regent seemed to like Concubine Ning as well.

Concubine Ning's name is Li Yuning. She is only three years older than Qi Yunxu. She has been studying in the upper study room since childhood, and she and Qi Yunxu can be considered childhood sweethearts.

She is bright and outgoing, a very lively and innocent girl, and very courageous. When she is in the palace, even the queen has to give in to her.

If the Cheng family wasn't so powerful, the late emperor would have given the throne to her.

Shen Nanzhi felt that the rumors were a bit exaggerated. A woman like Concubine Ning was only suitable to be a favorite concubine. Although she didn't like the queen, she managed the harem quite well. It would be even better if she didn't have selfish motives and deliberately punish the concubines.

But people are not saints, who can resist jealousy? It is impossible for the queen not to punish the concubines who are blind.

After thinking so much in an instant, Shen Nanzhi looked at this young Mrs. Li with a more intriguing look.

Gao Yulong's expression also changed. When she brought up the little emperor, her momentum suddenly weakened by three points.

Little Li became arrogant again: "Go ahead, I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

Before Gao Yulong could decide whether to fight back, Shen Nanzhi waved his hand, and Anxin and An Ning came forward and beat Xiao Li's men to the ground.

I don’t know what kind of quirk these two maids have, but they particularly like to slap people. They pressed all the maids and old women to the ground and slapped them like pigs.

Everyone was stunned, but when they recognized Shen Nanzhi, they were relieved. It turned out to be this person. Little Li had hit a wall this time.

If we were to ask who are the most difficult women in the capital, Shen Nanzhi would be at the top of the list. Even the empress dowager doesn't dare to call her into the palace to set the rules. Whenever anyone asks her about it, she's full of praise, which makes people confused.

I don't know what methods she used, but even the Queen Mother didn't dare to teach her a lesson, even though she was determined to teach her a lesson before.

Shen Nanzhi admired Xiao Li's colorful facial expressions, which made Xiao Li lower her head. "Miss Shen, you, I didn't offend you, why did you hit my people?"

This also surprised everyone else. Miss Shen was such a gentle person, so why were her servants so violent?

Shen Nanzhi said, "Last year, County Lady Gao made great contributions. Her husband died while providing disaster relief, but she, a woman, stepped forward and saved countless people. What a great contribution and courage this is. She is also a role model for women. How dare you look down on her?"

It turned out that she was speaking up for Gao Yulong. Little Li had no choice but to bow her head and said, "I know I was wrong."

"Kneel down and apologize."

Shen Nanzhi said lightly, which made Mrs. Li's face change drastically. She was so angry that she gasped. This was too much. It would be fine if she just apologized, but she had to kneel down?

Gao Yulong sighed in her heart and wanted to persuade Shen Nanzhi to forget it and not make things too ugly. Before she could say anything, Shen Nanzhi said, "You are not insulting County Lady Gao, but insulting all the meritorious officials. You are blocking the way for women in the world to do good deeds. If you do good deeds but are still scolded, who will dare to do good deeds in the future?

Princess Gao even took care of her mother-in-law and raised her children. It was not easy for her, but you humiliated her. She is a model of a woman. She should not be misunderstood by the world for her efforts and money. But she has to suffer the grievances of a shrew like you. Where is justice?"

Gao Yulong immediately shut up, covered her eyes with a handkerchief, wiped the corners of her eyes, and felt extremely aggrieved.

Everyone immediately sympathized with Gao Yulong. They believed that she should be given justice. She was not pointing fingers at Xiao Li. This woman was usually arrogant and unpopular. She deserved to be taught a lesson.

Little Li had no choice but to kneel down, "County Lady Gao, I am rude and shouldn't have scolded you. Please forgive me."

An Xin pressed her head down and knelt on the ground: "You should apologize properly. Kneel down."

"what……"

Shen Nanzhi's heart trembled. This girl is a bit violent.

Gao Yulong thought: "Okay, I won't bother with you anymore, get up."

That was the end of it. An Xin threw the person into the group of servants and asked them to serve Xiao Li.

Another person walked out of the box. It was Gao Yulong's second sister-in-law Yang, and she was accompanied by a young girl, her daughter Gao Xuelan.

Yang smiled and said, "This is Miss Shen, she is really a beauty, pretty and virtuous, no wonder the Regent likes her so much.

I am Yulong's second sister-in-law, and this is my daughter Gao Xuelan. You two are about the same age, let's play together in the future."

After saying that, he pushed Gao Xuelan. She lowered her head shyly, feeling very embarrassed.

Gao Yulong had an ugly look on her face. After all, she didn't scold her second sister-in-law. When Xiao Li humiliated her just now, she didn't say a word. She even called this woman over. What does this mean?

Gao Yulong couldn't help but think more.

Shen Nanzhi saw more people and knew at a glance that Gao Yulong's life in her mother's home was not easy. This Yang was not a good person. She said, "Second Madam, I thank you for praising my beauty, but I dare not call you virtuous. I have a bad temper. Whoever dares to provoke me and my friends, beating people is the lightest punishment. I dare to kill people.

As for your young lady, I am a country girl, and I can get along well with County Lady Gao. Rich ladies like Miss Gao stay away from me."

Yang was embarrassed and her face turned blue. Gao Xuelan was even more ashamed and angry. It was all her mother's fault for trying to get close to others and being rejected by them.

"Let's go."

Shen Nanzhi took Gao Yulong and Shen Kening away. After watching a good show, the people in the teahouse started talking about it. This Miss Shen is not really gentle. Does the Regent know this?

In the carriage, Gao Yulong sighed, "Thank you Miss Shen for helping me out. You helped me again. I don't know how to repay you."

"Are you unhappy living in the Gao family? Why don't you move out? Hasn't the county lady's mansion been cleaned up yet?"

Shen Nanzhi has always been very good to her friends. She likes Gao Yulong's two children very much. She is also a nice person and is willing to help her.

Gao Yulong sighed, "I was thinking about moving anyway, but my mother couldn't bear to let me go. My second sister-in-law was always very polite to me, and she never thought of doing this.

We women have a really hard life. After we get married, we become guests when we return to our parents’ home. We have no place of our own and are looked down upon by others.

It’s just that I won’t tolerate my second sister-in-law making a scene. I have to let her know that I’m not someone you can easily mess with.”

"Right, you still have your mother, how can she not protect you? It's better to be a willful sister-in-law, let your second sister-in-law suffer a lot, and don't always be so calculating.

If you tolerate it today, she will continue to push her limits, and the children will be bullied by her in the future."

Gao Yulong immediately sat up straight, her fighting spirit high. "Yes, I can endure it, but the child can't. Thank you for waking me up. I have only become more patient after being married for so many years. When I was a girl, everyone in the family spoiled me and gave in to me."

Gao Yulong has become mature and steady, but that doesn't mean she has no temper. This time, Yang has crossed her bottom line.
