Chapter 175: The Ji Family is in Trouble
Hearing this, Cui Jin thought for a moment and deliberately put on a high-profile attitude.
"Okay, I'll listen to Yuan'er." Cui Jin deliberately said with disdain: "If it weren't for the fact that I could return to the Shen family and drive away the person pretending to be me, mother wouldn't even bother to enter the palace!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I am only considering the overall situation. I am the most generous."
Shen Ningyuan took Cui Jin's arm and took the initiative to invite her down the stairs.
After settling Cui Jin, Shen Ningyuan planned to return to the Marquis' Mansion.
Upon hearing this, Shen Haoyue immediately stopped him and said, "Sister, today there was a commotion in the palace. You didn't speak up for Ji Zehai. Chen will definitely blame you. If you go back at this time, she will probably take the opportunity to embarrass you."
"Yes, sister, why don't you come back with us to the general's mansion? We can talk about anything tomorrow when we get back." Shen Haobai also persuaded.
Shen Ningyuan shook his head and refused, "Brother, second brother, I know you are worried, but I will have to face these situations sooner or later, so it is better to go back early and not give them the opportunity to prepare."
What's more, she was the one who planned today's palace banquet, so she had to go back.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's firm attitude, the two had to give up the idea of persuading her.
At this time, Cui Jin was confused about the conversation between the three people.
The three of them had no choice but to briefly recount what happened at the palace banquet.
Upon hearing that Shen Ningyuan was injured, Cui Jin became extremely nervous and immediately lifted up her sleeves.
After seeing the gauze wrapped around his arm, Cui Jin panicked, "Yuan'er, are you okay?"
Shen Ningyuan shook her head, "Mom, it's just a minor skin injury, it's okay, you don't have to worry."
How could Cui Jin believe it?
But seeing Chen Ningyuan's calm look, Cui Jin had to suppress her worries and watched Chen Ningyuan leave the yard.
Before leaving, Shen Ningyuan said seriously: "Mom, you can live here with peace of mind. If you have any problems, just find the shopkeeper and he will help you handle it."
"Yes, mother got it." Cui Jin instructed the two brothers, "You two, send your sister to the Marquis' Mansion safely, understand?"
"Mom, I understand."
"Leave my sister to the two of us, don't worry, mother!"
Afterwards, the three of them left Ningle Tower and walked towards the Marquis' Mansion.
At this time, the huge marquis' mansion was brightly lit.
All the servants and maids in the marquis's mansion stood on both sides of the front yard, holding bamboo sticks, looking ahead with solemn expressions.
Chen was strong and calm, hesitantly looked at Chen Mo'er, and asked in a trembling voice: "Mo'er, aunt has gathered everyone here as you said, do you think Shen Ningyuan will come back tonight?"
Chen Moer said confidently: "Chen Ningyuan is a smart person, she will definitely come back tonight."
"What if he doesn't come back? Then all our preparations will be in vain," Chen continued to ask.
Chen Moer paused, but still said calmly: "No matter when she comes back, these are all prepared for her!"
Then Chen Moer asked again: "By the way, aunt, I asked you to go to the old house to invite the old lady, has she come?"
Chen shook her head. "I sent someone to invite him. He should be on his way."
"That's fine." Chen Moer raised her lips and sneered, "When the old lady arrives, with her pressure, Shen Ningyuan won't dare to do anything too reckless."
"Of course, this damn old woman has a royal decree. Even if Shen Ningyuan is arrogant, she has to be careful when facing an old lady with a royal decree!"
As she spoke, Chen looked at Chen Mo'er with approval, "Mo'er, you are really smart. As soon as you came out of the palace, you planned all this. Let me go to the old house and invite that damn old woman to come and take charge."
Hearing Chen cursing "damn old woman" all the time, Chen Moer couldn't help but frown.
"Aunt, the old lady will be back soon, you should be careful with your words." Then, she lowered her voice and reminded him, "There are so many servants here, if they go to the old lady to complain, it will be over."
But Chen was not worried at all, "Don't worry, that damn old woman hasn't stayed in the mansion for ten years. Now everyone in the mansion is my people, no one dares to complain."
Seeing Chen like this, Chen Moer frowned even more tightly.
I didn't expect that even at this time, Chen is still like this.
I don't really care about anything.
When things go wrong, he starts crying again.
She even suspected that the failure of her and Xie Yumin's plan had a lot to do with Chen.
Thinking of this, Chen Moer didn't want to say anything more, nor did she want to look at Chen any more.
At this time, the servant outside the door ran in and said that Shen Ningyuan had arrived at the door.
Chen immediately became nervous and cursed inwardly, gritting her teeth: “That bitch Chen Ningyuan, she’s finally back!”
Chen Moer frowned and reminded in a low voice: "Aunt, remember what I told you."
But at this moment, Chen couldn’t hear anything, and stared at the gate with burning eyes, waiting for Shen Ningyuan to appear.
At this time, Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue sent Shen Ningyuan to the Marquis' Mansion.
Before leaving, the two brothers were still worried about Shen Ningyuan's situation and tried to persuade her not to return to the Marquis' Mansion.
But they were all rejected by Shen Ningyuan.
"Big brother, second brother, don't worry, they can't do anything to me."
Seeing that Shen Ningyuan’s attitude was as firm as before, Shen Haobai had no choice but to take out a cylindrical object and hand it to Shen Ningyuan.
He said seriously, "Sister, if there is any emergency, you can release this flare, and the Shen family army within a hundred miles will come to your side in the first place to protect you."
Shen Ningyuan held the flare and nodded to Shen Haobai, “Brother, I understand.”
"Okay, then we'll go."
After saying that, Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue climbed onto their horses, turned their horses around and left reluctantly.
Until the two figures disappeared, Shen Ningyuan's face immediately turned cold, and he turned around and walked towards the stairs step by step.
Standing in front of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Ningyuan had a cold look on his face.
She knew that once she opened the door, what she would face would not be easy.
But even so, Shen Ningyuan clenched the flare in her hand, hid it in her sleeve, and slowly pushed open the door of the Ji family.
At this moment, after seeing Shen Ningyuan appear, Chen's eyes lit up instantly, and then she winked at the servant.
The servant immediately ran over and closed the door of the marquis's mansion tightly.
Shen Ningyuan did not show any panic at this action, and raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen.
"Mrs. Ji, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing?" Chen snorted coldly and shouted, "Chen Ningyuan, you are so rebellious that you watched your father-in-law being taken away without saying a word for him. We in the Ji family don't have a daughter-in-law like you!"
"I don't consider myself the daughter-in-law of the Ji family," Shen Ningyuan shrugged, "Didn't you notice that I don't care about you calling me mother-in-law anymore. Now no matter where I go, I just call you 'Mrs. Ji'?"
