Chapter 357 Shen Ke Ning ran away from home
Chapter 357 Shen Ke Ning ran away from home
Shen Ke Ning was spoiled since she was a child. She had always gotten what she wanted, except for the Regent.
If the Regent was really a flower on the mountain, out of reach, and no one would marry him, living like a monk, then she would let it go.
But he actually took in a woman of unknown origin. Isn't this a slap in her face?
If Qi Yunxu knew what she was thinking, he would definitely say that she was overthinking. From the beginning to the end, this woman was not in his heart, and he couldn't even recognize who she was when she stood in front of him.
But Shen Ke Ning didn't think so. She was certain that the Regent wouldn't dare to do anything to her, so she insisted on getting an explanation.
Princess Anguo was not at home either. She was invited by her good friend to enjoy the flowers and also to talk about the Regent.
They were said to be good friends, but in fact they were just fake sisters. They all knew that Princess Anguo intended to make the Regent her son-in-law, but the Regent did not agree.
Now that the regent has a new person, where should her daughter be placed?
Princess Anguo has always been proud. She dotes on her daughter like a treasure and even her sons have to stand aside. She raised her daughter to be willful and unruly, so she must have been disliked by the Regent, right?
People would rather marry a woman of unknown origin than her daughter. Let's see what kind of good family her daughter Shen Kening can marry in the future.
Princess Anguo is having an argument with someone else and she can't lose the momentum. How can her daughter worry about getting married?
It would be fine if the Regent really got married, but it was just a woman of unknown origin, and she was secretly brought in through the side door. What does this mean?
This means that this woman cannot see the light of day and cannot be on stage, so she cannot be the regent princess!
Then her daughter will have a chance. At worst, after she marries into the family, she will have another favored concubine. Then won’t the position of mistress belong to her daughter?
Which of them doesn't have concubines? Are there not enough illegitimate children?
Every family has some shady things that cannot be exposed to the public. Princess Anguo made them very angry. When it comes to quarreling, has she ever lost to anyone?
After having lunch and watching a few plays, he came back leisurely. The less he cared, the more he could shut them up.
As a result, as soon as they entered the house, the servants knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, it's bad. The eldest daughter insisted on going to the regent to argue. We servants couldn't stop her, so we rode out on horseback."
"What? Who's following?"
"The guards have caught up, but I don't know if they have caught up with him?"
Princess Anguo didn't bother to punish the servants, and hurried back to the carriage, "Go to the Regent's Palace."
Qi Yunxu had just seen off a guest, who was the Prime Minister Zhang Jizu, who reported some urgent matters in the court, and he had to make the decision.
This conversation lasted for two hours. State affairs were always complicated.
After sending Prime Minister Zhang away, Princess Anguo came to visit and said, "Greetings, Prince Regent. Is my daughter Ke Ning here with you?"
Qi Yunxu had a cold and businesslike expression, and didn't like the princess. When she asked, Qi Yunxu frowned, "What do you mean, princess? Your daughter and I have nothing to do with each other. It's really ridiculous that you come to me to ask for someone."
Princess Anguo suppressed her anxiety and explained: "My little girl was reckless. She wanted to talk to the Regent and ran away from home. I was afraid that she would offend the Regent with her rude words and ignorant words, so I came to take her back."
Qi Yunxu: "What can she and I talk about? I'm not familiar with her. I'm so sorry, she didn't come to my palace. Princess, please go look for her somewhere else."
"Didn't she come? Or did she come and leave? Please ask, my dear regent. My daughter can't find anyone right now. As a mother, I am really worried."
Qi Yunxu asked the doorman to come over in front of her and asked clearly: "Has the daughter of Duke Shen come to visit the mansion?"
"No, only Prime Minister Zhang is visiting today, no one else is coming."
"How can this be?"
Qi Yunxu: "Prime Minister Zhang just left, and we have been discussing the matter. If you don't believe me, you can ask him to testify.
Can I still lie to you? Don't let your girl be so willful. Princess, please look for someone else and don't waste your time here."
Princess Anguo turned to leave, but suddenly came back and said, "Please ask the regent to send someone to help look for her. My master is away working for the court, and there is no man in charge at home. I am a woman and I am at a loss. Please ask the regent to make the decision."
Qi Yunxu: “…”
It is said that Princess Anguo is smart, and today I finally got to experience it. She used Duke Shen to intercede for her, and the job of finding the person fell on herself.
No one has more power than the regent who has great power in the court and can mobilize the most people to find people.
"Ling Feng, take my token and ask Jingzhao Prefecture and Wucheng Bingma Division to help find someone."
"Yes, my lady, please follow me."
Princess Anguo got what she wanted, and left the palace without further ado.
Qi Yunxu didn't care. It was just the girl's willfulness and she was too ignorant. If he had a daughter, he would definitely not raise her like this.
Let’s go see Nan Zhi. She’s still angry.
Shen Nanzhi was not in the inner house, she had gone out. How could she not see the excitement when she came to the capital?
Anxin and An Ning accompanied them, and Jiayi and others served as guards and guides, accompanying them on the tour.
Qi Yunxu felt more relieved. Jiayi and the others represented him, and no one would dare to provoke Nanzhi. He returned to the study to continue handling official business.
He is also hypocritical. He doesn't even think about how many out-of-line things Shen Nanzhi has done, such as divorce, abusing her ex-husband's family, suppressing bandits, and fighting. Which of these is something a normal girl should do?
It’s just that Shen Nanzhi can take responsibility for his own troubles and never needs others to clean up the mess. He is different from Shen Ke Ning.
Shen Ke Ning is blindly willful, incompetent and loves to stir up trouble. She ran away from home for a man. She is not as cute as Nan Zhi at all.
Qi Yunxu thinks Shen Nanzhi is good in every way, while Shen Kening is useless.
……
Qi Yunxu thought that no one would dare to provoke Nanzhi, but he was wrong. Shen Nanzhi was really in trouble.
It can't be said that the problem was hers, it was Yang Lingyu. He was blocked by Cheng Wenhui, the prince of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, who was also his former master.
Yang Lingyu's face looked extremely ugly. Did Master Cheng really want to force him to death?
As a disciple of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, Cheng Wenhui is one of the most prominent second-generation talents in the capital. Who dares to disobey him?
The Queen Mother is his aunt, and the Yong'an Marquisate is a prominent family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. There are many people working for him. How dare a mere son of a prefect dare to betray him?
However, Cheng Wenhui did not call for fighting and killing. After all, they were all people of status, not hooligans who only relied on fists and feet to do things.
He was invited to have tea, but Yang Lingyu had to go even if he didn't want to. It could be said to be a Hongmen Banquet.
He wanted to seek support from Shen Nanzhi and ask for advice, but he was taken away by the Cheng family as soon as he left the palace. He didn't even have a chance to report any news and was scared to death.
