According to the original owner's memories, her mother and her scumbag father also had days of harmony.
Otherwise, shortly after the marriage, my mother gave birth to three children in succession...
Even his maternal grandfather, Shen Qing, was deceived by Ning Wei and recommended him.
When the Great Yan Dynasty appointed people, it did not shy away from recommending virtuous people, and Ning Wei did have some real skills, so it seized the opportunity and quickly rose to a higher position.
However, this happy period didn't last long. Not long after giving birth to the original owner, the mother suddenly contracted a strange illness, and the Marquis's mansion and the Prime Minister's mansion invited renowned doctors...
Emperor Xiaowen also made a show of it by personally dispatching imperial physicians...
Not only has the condition not improved, but the cause of the illness cannot even be determined.
Within a few years, his condition continued to deteriorate, eventually leading to total paralysis and complete inability to take care of himself.
Meanwhile, rumors circulated that the General of the Cavalry intended to marry his only daughter, Chen Yuhong, to Ning Wei...
With the Crown Prince's faction acting as matchmakers behind the scenes, the marriage became a natural progression.
Ning Wei is a ruthless and vicious man, who also happens to be extremely fame-seeking...
He didn't want to let go of Shen Qing, this powerful ally, but he also didn't want to be ridiculed by the world...
Therefore, he did not divorce his wife, but instead moved her to a side courtyard to recuperate.
Even the best actor can't act forever.
In the original owner's marriage, Ning Wei allowed Chen Yuhong to embezzle his allowance and mistreat his eldest daughter-in-law...
Gradually, the mother will naturally learn to distinguish between hot and cold.
He remained silent, his expression turning cold, but his attitude towards Ning Wei grew increasingly distant...
People from Shenfu can sense it when they visit.
When Shen Qing's illness flared up, he personally went to the Prime Minister's residence, wanting to bring his daughter back to recuperate...
But Ning Wei's superb melodramatic acting prevented it...
joke!
With the "hostage" in hand, Prime Minister Shen not only cannot cause trouble because of his marriage to a concubine, but on the contrary, if he wants Prime Minister Shen to treat his daughter well, he must be careful about the degree of tact in communicating with him...
Although Shen Ning's two sons and one daughter were quite dissatisfied with his taking a concubine...
As long as he is taking care of Chen Ning, his two sons will never cause him too much trouble.
The people would also praise him, saying he was kind and righteous, and treated his wife well...
The Marquis's mansion isn't short of funds to support one more idle person, especially since Chen Ning already has three young grandsons at home...
The Prime Minister's residence would certainly not mistreat its daughter and three grandsons...
From any perspective, Ning Wei would never allow Shen Ning to return to the Prime Minister's residence out of momentary pity.
The people in the Prime Minister's residence had their suspicions; the timing of Shen Ning's strange illness and the timing of Ning Wei's secret affair with Chen Yuhong were too coincidental...
Ning Wei is cunning and scheming; Chen Yuhong's father, General Chen Dingzhi, wants to secretly manipulate this matter...
It's not impossible.
Shen Qing and his two children are simply infuriating; despite seeking out renowned doctors, none could diagnose the cause of Shen Ning's illness...
Without finding a weakness, there's no way to break the deadlock.
Ning Xi'er had just clearly seen Ning Wei enter the secluded area and walk into the main house...
His gaze swept over Cangwu and Guyu outside the door, finally settling on Ning Xi lying on the ground...
Looking at Chen Yuhong, then at the broken bowls and bloodstains on the ground...
My mother was just a few steps away, sitting in a wheelchair...
He didn't even lift his eyelids to look and confirm whether his mother was safe.
Ning Xi'er was calm.
Perhaps because I had no expectations, I was not disappointed.
That's good. Now that it's confirmed that her mother has no lingering feelings for Ning Wei, she doesn't need to hold back when she takes action.
The room was quiet; the only sound was Chen Yuhong breathing heavily.
She suddenly broke free from Ning Wei's grasp, drew his sword, and dragged him toward Chen Ning...
Ning Xi'er stood in front of her mother, but no one could see her.
If Chen Yuhong dares to take another step forward, she will crush her throat!
As expected, Ning Wei strode over and blocked Chen Yuhong's path.
Chen Yuhong glared at Shen Ning resentfully and cried out, "It's all her fault! It's all because of her!"
"If it weren't for her, Xi'er wouldn't have died!"
Ning Xi'er snorted coldly. She was incompetent and failed to kill her mother, so she blamed her mother?
His ability to turn the tables on others is truly outstanding!
Ning Wei snatched the sword and sheathed it again.
He stopped Chen Yuhong around the waist and comforted her, "How can you blame her when he can't move?"
On the way back, I heard from the guards that it was that wretched maid Bitao who caused trouble for our Xi'er...
You've done everything that deserved punishment or execution. Now, you need to rest well and absolutely mustn't act impulsively again...
Ning Wei was clearly trying to comfort her, but Chen Yuhong was startled when she heard it.
She gave orders to the guards to do what was done to Bitao...
The Marquis also found out about it. It's unimaginable how vicious she has become in his eyes.
Furthermore, her plan to kill Shen Ning was premeditated, coinciding with Ning Wei's departure; she acted first and informed him later...
Now that he doesn't blame me, I really need to calm down.
Xi'er's life is beyond saving.
She cannot lose the Marquis's affection because of her madness.
Once she regained consciousness, Chen Yuhong gave up struggling and turned to throw herself into Ning Wei's arms.
However, the look in his pensive gaze was utterly malevolent...
