When Sheng Wanwan and Sheng Wenjin returned to Yandu City, the signboard of the Zhenguo General's Mansion had been taken down and replaced with the name of the Chu Mansion.
When Sheng Wanwan saw the sign for the Chu residence, the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up.
She dashed into the courtyard and went straight to the East Garden.
"Mommy! Mommy! Wanwan is back! Wanwan missed Mommy so much!"
While Chu was reviewing the Shadow Guard's files in her study, she heard Sheng Wanwan's call and quickly stood up to greet her beloved daughter.
"You child! You finally decided to come back! You worried your mother to death!" When Chu saw Sheng Wanwan, her eyes immediately turned red.
Ever since Sheng Wanwan secretly left the capital, her heart has been in suspense.
Especially after hearing the rumors about the drought demon, she became so worried that she couldn't eat or sleep.
He wished he could drop everything he was doing and go straight to the border to find his children.
Now that she saw her children return unharmed, her anxiety finally subsided.
Mrs. Chu patted her son's shoulder, then picked up her youngest daughter and kissed her repeatedly.
"Mother! You and Wanwan chat first, I'll go check on Xue'er!" Sheng Wenjin said with a smile to Madam Chu.
“Go! Go! I’m at ease now that you’re back. But Wenjin, the Sheng family is to be executed in three days. To silence the gossip, we still have to go and see your father and the others off…”
For the sake of her four children's reputation, the Chu family did not openly break ties with Sheng Lingtian.
The Sheng family also believed that the Chu family and their children were not implicated by the Sheng family, simply because Chu Qianhan became the new General of the State and Sheng Wanwan made great contributions.
They had no idea that their affiliation with Prince Rui was exposed by the Chu family...
The world was unaware of this, after all, although it was a righteous act for Chu, as the daughter-in-law of the Sheng family, to personally report her husband's family, it could not silence the different opinions of the people.
Mrs. Chu was afraid that the negative comments would affect the children, so she chose to pretend that she knew nothing...
"Okay! Mother, Wen Jin will go!"
Sheng Wenjin responded and left...
Seeing her elder brother leave, Sheng Wanwan glanced at her mother's expression and said in a fawning tone:
"Mother, please don't scold Wanwan! Wanwan didn't go out just to play! Wanwan helped Uncle Emperor turn Prince Rui's 100,000-strong army against the emperor. Wanwan also solved the drought problem caused by the drought demon, and Wanwan even indirectly helped Mother get rid of her scumbag father's entanglement..."
"Wanwan has done so much, surely her merits and demerits can evenly offset each other, right? Hehehe..."
Looking at Sheng Wanwan like this, Chu's heart was completely melted.
"Good! Good! You're right! Wanwan has done many great things. Wanwan not only saved the people of the Great Yan Kingdom, but also the whole world. She even freed your mother from your scumbag father's entanglement. Your mother should reward you properly!"
Chu smiled and hugged Sheng Wanwan.
If it weren't for her own daughter, the Great Yan Kingdom would be in dire straits, and she and her children would have been killed by Sheng Lingtian. She was grateful to Sheng Wanwan from the bottom of her heart and proud of her. How could she possibly blame Sheng Wanwan?
"Mother, have my scumbag father and his whole family been thrown in jail? Have Sheng Moshi and Sheng Ye been arrested too?"
Sheng Wanwan lifted her head from Chu Shi's embrace and asked with a curious expression.
"The Sheng family members were basically all imprisoned, but Sheng Moshi somehow got wind of it and escaped from the city the day before the Imperial Guards surrounded the General's Mansion! Sheng Ye also disappeared early on. I think it was Consort Jin who intervened and rescued her two grandsons."
After all, Consort Jin needed a blood-related pawn to maintain her connection with Prince Rui, and marrying Sheng Moshi to Prince Rui's heir was the best option.
With this connection, Prince Rui would truly believe that Consort Jin's family would be of one mind with him...
Chu analyzed.
