Chapter 383 383 Mrs. Shen’s paragraphs

Song Rui’s eyes moved, and then he saluted Mrs. Shen without further words.

Seeing this, Mrs. Shen felt even more sorry for her daughter.

This person really has a heart for Rong’er. It’s a pity, but my daughter was fascinated by that boy Meng Xuan.

Looking at the female corpse in the coffin again, Mrs. Shen wiped away her tears for a while.

After a while, he said: “Send my wife back home.”

“Madam, please—” Song Rui hurriedly said.

Mrs. Shen just walked away.

Outside the house, Song Rui sent the carriage away.

Waited until the candlelight on the carriage disappeared from sight before turning back to the house.

Ordered people to bury the two coffins.

After watching the people in person to finish the matter, Song Rui got on his horse and returned to the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

The next day.

The Prime Minister’s Mansion finally held a funeral.

The news of the prime minister’s daughter’s sudden death last night spread throughout the capital.

It was day and night, Mrs. Shen sent someone to find Xiang Shen, and proposed to have a talk with him.

Shen Xiang didn’t want to talk to Mrs. Shen at first, but he considered that as the head of the Shen family, she must attend Shen Rong’s funeral.

After thinking about it, he agreed.

So, soon, Mrs. Shen was invited to the study.

Mrs. Shen entered the door, and what she saw was Prime Minister Shen looking down at the official documents.

In the past, she found Xiang Xiang’s busy appearance very attractive, but looking at it now, she just finds it very disgusting.

After entering the door, Mrs. Shen just looked at Prime Minister Shen and didn’t speak.

As for Prime Minister Shen, he already knew that his wife had entered the door.

But still bowed his head and was busy, pretending not to know.

I don’t know how long it took before Prime Minister Shen finally approved the official documents on the table.

Then, he looked up at Mrs. Shen.

“When did you come?” He asked.

Of course he knew when she came in, but he didn’t want to admit it.

In the past, he was too arrogant towards his wife, which made their mother and daughter cause him such trouble.

Now, he must be stricter with his wife.

A look of panic flashed across Madam Shen’s face.

Hurry up and salute Shen Xiang.

“Master, it’s been—it’s been a while.” He said fearfully.

Master Shen was satisfied.

Finally there was a smile on his face.

“Since you’re here, why don’t you call me the truth?” He said with a good-natured face.

Looking at this smile, Mrs. Shen only felt chills.

“Don’t dare. The master is busy with business, the concubine can wait.” Mrs. Shen continued to say cautiously.

The smile on Shen Xiang’s face deepened.

A sense of joy welled up deep in my heart.

He has been married to his wife for nearly twenty years, and when they get along, he has always been the one who is cautious.

Now, their status has finally changed.

“Cough—I heard from my servant that Madam has something to discuss with the truth?” Shen Xiang asked.

“Yes.” Madam Shen still had a docile face.

Looking up again, he glanced at Shen Xiang fearfully.

“What’s the matter?” Shen Xiang asked quickly.

Madam Shen trembled and raised her head again.

“The concubine saw the white flag hanging in the mansion—”

“I was flustered, so I wanted to ask the master. In the mansion—who is missing?” Saying this, Mrs. Shen looked at Prime Minister Shen nervously.

A look that wants to know the answer very much, but is afraid of hearing the answer.

Seeing this, Shen Xiang finally had more tenderness in his eyes.

After a while, he nodded with difficulty.

“You guessed right, it’s our Rong’er.” She said.

Mrs. Shen staggered and almost fell.

There was a touch of pity in Shen Xiang’s eyes.

“Rong’er—gone?” Mrs. Shen’s eyes lost their look for an instant.

Master Shen frowned.

“Yes.” Nodded.

“Why-why didn’t it? Is the news accurate?” Mrs. Shen continued.

Shen Xiang glanced at Mrs. Shen.

“God contracted a serious disease and died suddenly. In order to avoid infection, the truth has ordered that Rong’er be buried tomorrow.” Opened the mouth. When he said this, his tone was already quite cold.

Madam Shen’s pupils shrank, and she looked at Xiang Shen in disbelief.

Just when Prime Minister Shen thought that the woman across from him was going to yell at him as usual, he saw Mrs. Shen kneeling down at him.

“Rong’er is the eldest lady of Xiangfu, the only daughter of my concubine.”

“How could her funeral be without a concubine?”

“Master, please let this concubine preside over Rong’er’s funeral.” Saying this, Mrs. Shen looked at Xiang Shen longingly.

Shen Xiang was taken aback.

Surprised by Mrs. Shen’s performance.

After being shocked, she fell into silence and didn’t immediately agree to Mrs. Shen.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. He is worried that his wife is harboring some bad thoughts.

But what his wife said is also right, Shen’s only daughter died of illness, if the mistress does not show up at the funeral, I’m afraid it will attract suspicion from many people.

In addition, Shen Rong still has Jia’s blood on her body.

It’s okay for him not to give his wife face, but he can’t ignore the face of the Jia family and the empress.

“En.” After hesitating again and again, Prime Minister Shen finally agreed.

Mrs. Shen’s complexion immediately brightened.

But Shen Xiang spoke again.

“However, the truth has a condition.”

Ms. Shen’s expression froze.

The expression on the face disappears.

Immediately, Chong Chen saluted again with lowered eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

“Master, it’s okay to say.” He said.

Shen Xiang felt another burst of joy in his heart.

“All these years, you and I have only one daughter, Rong’er.”

“Now, Rong’er has passed away. In order to avoid the loneliness at Madam’s knees, I want to accept a prostitute daughter. And arrange to come into the house and have fun at Madam’s knees.” Xiang Shen said while looking at Madam Shen’s reaction.

“I don’t know Madam, what do you think?”

Hearing this, Madam Shen immediately looked up at Prime Minister Shen.

There was anger in the eyes, but it was only for a moment, and the anger dissipated.

turned into helplessness, and sadness.

Seeing this scene, Shen Xiang felt a little relieved.

Back then, his wife had killed a second wife he liked very much, as well as the daughter he had with that second wife.

At that time, he made up his mind that sooner or later, he would slowly bring his child into the house to disgust her.

Now, he can be regarded as fulfilling his wish.

Mrs. Shen lowered her head, and after a lot of effort she finally nodded in response.

“Everything—do as the master says.” Resisting the fishy sweetness in her throat, she said.

Shen Xiang looked happy.

He got up from the chair himself, walked up to Mrs. Shen, and helped her up.

“That’s right. You and I have been in love for more than 20 years. Only by taking a step back can the Xiangfu be peaceful.”

Mrs. Shen wiped away her tears.

“Master, that’s very true.” He smiled.

“Haha—” Prime Minister Shen laughed out loud, and stretched out his hand to pull Mrs. Shen into his arms.

“If Ma’am had been so knowledgeable earlier, why did you and I, husband and wife, come to this?” said with some exclamation.

Immediately, she helped Mrs. Shen to a chair and sat down.

“Lian’er is obedient and sensible, playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is not inferior to Rong’er. Madam will definitely like her.” Shen Xiang said enthusiastically.

Mrs. Shen’s face froze, and she wished to kill that illegitimate daughter of Prime Minister Shen.

But he didn’t show it on the face, and nodded as if resigned to his fate.

So the husband and wife in the prime minister’s mansion returned to superficial peace.
