Chapter 30: Despicable Means



"What he meant was to tell me that Ruyi is a lucky star. It is thanks to Ruyi that we are where we are today."

Shen Cangyun regretted it so much when he said this, "If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have asked Ruyi to apologize to Jiaojiao at the family recognition banquet!"

"That's also confusing..."

Shen Yu: “…”

Asking Shen Ruyi to apologize to Shen Jiaojiao at the family reunion party was a decision made by him, Shen Ci, Shen Luo and his father.

Everyone felt that Shen Ruyi had enjoyed wealth and glory in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, and she owed Shen Jiaojiao, so apologizing to Jiaojiao was what she should do.

But when I calmed down at this moment, I realized that it was not so reasonable.

If this were to go by, all five brothers should apologize to Shen Jiaojiao. After all, they grew up enjoying wealth and glory in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But unfortunately, at that time, no one thought so.

"So now, what should we do?"

Shen Yu could only look at Shen Cangyun.

Shen Cangyun also looked troubled. "Now we can only deal with it. Let's put the matter of the second brother aside for now. Only after Qinghua and Ruyi's wedding is completed, there will be a possibility of reviving the dead."

"Qinghua just sent a message saying that Ruyi said tonight that she will go to the Gu family to celebrate the old lady's birthday in ten days. She probably still wants to marry Qinghua. After all, no matter what, Rongyan is a disabled person. What hope can she have if she goes there?"

"As long as she is willing to marry Qinghua, everything will be fine."

"Once a girl gets married, she has to obey her husband's family. She will no longer have a say. Even if the high priest wants to protect her, he won't run to find another daughter-in-law."

"As for Rong Yan, he is in that position, and he has all kinds of women. There is no need for him to go crazy over a married woman. No matter what, once Ruyi gets married, everything will be over."

Shen Cangyun pressed his eyebrows.

He wished time would pass quickly so that he could send Shen Ruyi to Gu Qinghua's bed.

Shen Yu frowned as he listened to this. "In the current situation, I'm afraid I can only stabilize Ruyi first. Besides, the news of her wedding to Qinghua cannot be publicized."

"You are right. We must not let the Imperial Concubine and the Ninth Prince know about this before it is done. We have to make it a done deal. To be on the safe side, go out and discuss setting up a trap with Qinghua so that they can consummate their marriage as soon as possible."

"It would be best if everyone knew about this."

Shen Cangyun thought of a despicable method, "Although this is not good for the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is better than letting things get completely out of control."

Some things are hard to say out loud.

But Shen Yu and he are father and son, so he understood what he meant after thinking about it.

So she nodded and said, "Those who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters. As long as Brother Qinghua treats Ruyi well in the future, it doesn't matter if Ruyi suffers a little grievance. No matter how others point fingers, they can't compare to a caring word from your husband."

"As long as this happens, she will have to give in no matter how stubborn she is. After all, once a girl's reputation is lost, there will be nothing to look forward to in the future. The only thing she can hold on to is her husband."

Shen Cangyun nodded, "Go ahead, tomorrow."

"Well, Zuixinlou opens tomorrow, which is a good opportunity." Shen Yu and he hit it off immediately.

Shen Cangyun waved his hand to let him go, and said: "Go find Lao Er and ask him to prescribe some medicine or incense, as long as it can achieve the goal."

"I'll do it right away."

Shen Yu turned around and left in a hurry.

Shen Cangyun turned his head and looked at the portrait of his wife on the wall. He sighed and said, "Mom, don't blame me. I have no choice. If Ruyi continues to make trouble like this, this family will be ruined."

"It's also my fault for not educating her well."

"That's why she grew up to be like this. She's so rebellious that she almost doesn't recognize me as her father!"

As he spoke, two lines of tears flowed down his face, "Mother, please forgive me this time..."

In the night.

Shen Yu pulled Shen Ci out and told him the result of his discussion with Shen Cangyun.

"Father asked you to prepare some medicine. As long as it can make her lose her mind and not remember what happened after waking up, it will be fine. Once Brother Qinghua succeeds, Ruyi's connection with the Ninth Prince's Mansion will be completely cut off."

Shen Ci was angry that Shen Ruyi had acted recklessly and cut off his career, but he still felt that this was inappropriate after hearing this. "Brother, isn't this a bit bad? After all, we are Ruyi's relatives. Isn't it a bit too much to ruin her reputation and make her a scorned slut?"

"Besides, it won't look good on us. We might as well send him to the clan house!"

Shen Ci was very concerned about his reputation, and thought that sending Shen Ruyi to the clan house would only hurt her body.

But if her reputation is ruined, it would only hurt her face.

His own face also became dull.

"How could I not know that this was excessive?"

Shen Yu rolled his eyes at him, "It's all for you. Ruyi is a child I personally raised. How much did I love her when she was little? It's also because I didn't take good care of her that she became so lawless."

"At this point, it's no use for you to feel bad."

"She has to take responsibility for her own mistakes. Besides, her family has raised her so much, it would be fine if she doesn't know how to repay them, but she wants to destroy the family. I absolutely don't agree with that."

"Go get ready."

Shen Yu showed off his elder brother's dignity and said, "In everything, we must put the interests of the Prime Minister's Mansion first, and not care about her reputation alone."

"When she gets married, give her more dowry as an apology!"

After Shen Yu finished speaking, he turned and left.

Shen Ci suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly, "Oh, by the way, Miss Mu seemed to have been here just now. I heard her voice. Didn't she come to look for you?"

"When did it happen?"

Shen Yu was delighted and turned his head hurriedly.

"Just... half an hour ago?" Shen Ci was a little uncertain, "You really didn't see her?"

"No."

Shen Yu was a little confused and wanted to find Mu Rushuang.

But now he was busy with Shen Ruyi's wedding and had no time, so he had to go to the warehouse first and ask them to prepare the dowry.

But when he thought of Mu Rushuang, his heart was still filled with emotion.

He has liked Mu Rushuang for a long time. He invited her to his house before, intending to introduce his most beloved sister to her, but he didn't know how he offended her and made her ignore him for several days.

Then, since you came home on your own initiative this time, you must have forgiven him, right?

With this in mind, I decided to return to the palace to find her after finishing my work here...

For a moment, my heart became eager again.

He walked quickly towards Shen Luo's yard and called him out, "Third brother, when you go to Guangwen Hall tomorrow, bring Ruyi with you."

Shen Luo has been hiding in his room these days. He has not done any of the homework assigned by the teacher. He was thinking all the time about Shen Ruyi giving the hairpin he gave to Shen Jiaojiao. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

The more I think about it, the more aggrieved I feel.

But in the end, she felt that her nonsense outside had hurt Shen Ruyi's feelings, so she asked her to give the hairpin away.

Just when he was thinking about reconciling with her, he found the steps when he heard Shen Yu's words and agreed on the spot, "Okay, I'll go!"
