Chapter 261: Pearl Whisk
After being shocked, Shen Haoyue said in a trembling voice: "Xie Wanzhou, are you kidding me? Are you interested in my sister?"
Because he was too shocked, Shen Haoyue directly called out Xie Wanzhou's name.
The latter was not annoyed, and pursed his lips and whispered jokingly: "You can speak louder so that everyone can hear that I have a crush on your sister."
After Xie Wanzhou's reminder, Shen Haoyue suddenly shut up.
But the shock in his eyes lingered for a long time.
After a while, Shen Haoyue stared at Xie Wanzhou for a long time, and still asked in disbelief: "Are you sure you are not kidding me?"
"Why would I tease you?" Xie Wanzhou asked instead of answering.
Seeing the other party's serious expression, Shen Haoyue felt a little more confident.
After a moment, Shen Haoyue couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't expect that the crazy prince rumored in the capital would actually fall in love with my sister?"
With a roar of laughter, Shen Haoyue couldn't help but look at Xie Wanzhou, complaining in a faint tone: "Your Highness, why didn't you say it earlier? If the Shen family knew that you were interested in Ning Yuan, they wouldn't have married her to that bastard Ji Yunchuan a year ago!"
Hearing this, Xie Wanzhou pursed his lips with a hint of loss in his eyes.
He thought the same as Shen Haoyue. If he had recognized Shen Ningyuan earlier, perhaps Ji Yunchuan would not have interfered.
Thinking of this, Xie Wanzhou lowered his head and chuckled, hiding the disappointment in his eyes, "It's indeed a little late, but it doesn't matter, there's still time."
After hearing this, Shen Haoyue's mind turned several corners before he suddenly reacted.
The corners of Shen Haoyue's mouth twitched and he couldn't speak clearly.
With a trembling voice, he asked, "You mean, even if my sister is a married woman, you don't mind?"
"So what if she's married? She can get a divorce, and she'll be free after the divorce." Xie Wanzhou said indifferently, "What's more, the laws of our dynasty stipulate that if the husband's family is at fault, the wife can get a divorce."
Seeing Xie Wanzhou's serious attitude, Shen Haoyue continued to ask: "Even if she is divorced, she is still a divorced woman in the eyes of others. If you ask to marry her, it may bring shame to the royal family!"
Xie Wanzhou answered seriously: "So what? If she shines with her pearl whisk, who will still remember her past?"
When these words came out, Shen Haoyue's heart was shocked when he heard them.
There was deep shock in his eyes when he looked at Xie Wanzhou.
He couldn't believe that in today's world, such words could be said by a man of status and position.
Besides being shocked, the secret letter in his hand actually became a little hot.
After a while, Shen Haoyue finally found his voice.
"Your Highness Wanzhou, I know what you mean."
Shen Haoyue clenched the letter tightly, slowly stood up, and bowed to Xie Wanzhou.
"Your Highness, I am the only one who, on behalf of the Shen family, would like to say thank you to you on behalf of my sister!"
The world is cruel and life is difficult for women.
He had never thought that Shen Ningyuan, who had been harmed to this extent by the Ji family, would have the opportunity to be cherished so much.
Shen Haoyue's sudden bow also shocked Xie Wanzhou, who stood up suddenly and helped Shen Haoyue up.
"Mr. Shen, you're too much!" Xie Wanzhou said softly, "I don't deserve such a great gift from you!"
"This is for my sister!" Shen Haoyue said in a serious tone, "To the Shen family, Ning Yuan is more important than anything in the world."
"A year ago, His Majesty granted the marriage. My father and mother thought about handing over the military power, contributing the family property and returning home in exchange for His Majesty revoking the marriage. But Ning Yuan was concerned about Ji Yunchuan, so my father and mother had to give up and marry Ning Yuan to the Ji family."
"Now it seems that the Ji family is a den of wolves with no bottom to see. Without this evidence in hand, I don't know how many years I will have to struggle in that den of wolves!"
As he spoke, Shen Haoyue's voice was choked up a little, and he held the secret letter in his hand even tighter.
Xie Wanzhou patted his arm and said, "Is it possible that these evidences are just icing on the cake for your sister? Even if there is no Gu, she will find a way to escape from the Ji family without affecting the Shen family."
Shen Haoyue frowned slightly, "Your Highness knows all this, it can be seen that you and Ning Yuan are already very familiar with each other."
As he spoke, Shen Haoyue sighed and said, “Sister has the Shen family in her heart and never tells us about her difficulties.”
Xie Wanzhou said in a deep voice, "In that case, you can rest assured and leave everything to her."
As Xie Wanzhou spoke, there was a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Just give her a helping hand at the critical moment."
After finishing speaking, Xie Wanzhou patted Shen Haoyue on the shoulder and said very solemnly: “So, don’t think about it anymore, keep these evidences and hand them over at the critical moment, and Ning Yuan can leave the Ji family!”
Xie Wanzhou's eyes were shining, and it seemed that the scene of Shen Ningyuan's glorious return home had already emerged in his mind.
Compared to his excitement, Shen Haoyue was still a little confused.
He asked aloud, "Your Highness, do you know how far my sister's plan has progressed?"
This question stumped Xie Wanzhou.
He only knew that Shen Ningyuan had a plan, but he didn't know how far her plan went.
At this moment, a deep voice came from outside the door: "Second Young Master, the young lady has returned to the Shen family!"
Shen Haoyue's heart was shocked and he looked suddenly in the direction of the private room.
