"Sister, can you please help me?"
"I just want to recognize my father again. I will never compete with you for my father's love. Please..."
As the girl spoke, a tear rolled down her eye. Her petite body trembled slightly, her eyes were red, and she cried so hard that it was heartbreaking.
Prince Yu couldn't help but hug her tightly. When he turned around, his handsome face suddenly turned cold: "Master Shen, everyone says that you are very indulgent and loving to your children. Why are you so cruel to Lu'er, a daughter of yours?"
"She is your daughter too! Why don't you want to acknowledge her?"
Everyone in the Shen family: "..."
They could never have imagined that Prince Yu, who was sitting at home peacefully, would suddenly come with Lu'er to recognize his relatives!
No, isn't this matter over? Why are you still here?
Prince Yu looked at the family opposite. The male host had a calm expression, the female host lowered her head and stroked her sleeves, and the eldest son looked at them in disbelief with his mouth wide open, his face full of shock.
The daughter and son-in-law held hands and did various little things under everyone's eyes.
Prince Yu's already bad mood instantly darkened. As expected, she dared to be so presumptuous in front of him. Wouldn't Lu'er be bullied to death when she was alone?
The Shen family is so brave!
Prince Yu said in a deep voice, "Sir Shen, as an official appointed by the imperial court, is this how you set an example for the people? Abandoning your children? Or is your Shen family so poor that you can't even afford to raise a daughter?"
He glanced at the elegant and luxurious flower hall and the maids and servants at the door.
Prince Yu sneered repeatedly: "It seems that I have to go to the palace and ask my father to give you a higher salary!"
Everyone in the Shen family: "..."
Threats, naked threats!
If Prince Yu entered the palace, it would not be the emperor who would pay him a salary, but officials who would come to search the Shen family.
In the court, apart from the stubborn and unyielding ministers, who could withstand the scrutiny? A single mistake could lead to the loss of one's head, the confiscation of property, and the extermination of one's clan.
After all, those censors are not just there to show off.
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
Master Shen Er raised his eyes and smiled slightly: "I do feel that my salary is a little low. If it weren't for my wife's dowry, our family would have starved to death. If Your Majesty could help raise the issue of salary with His Majesty, not only I, but the other ministers would also be grateful to you."
Prince Yu instantly became furious and pointed at him: "You!"
Master Shen Er smiled gently and looked at Lu Er, whose eyes were filled with tears. "As for this girl's father, he has left the Shen family and is running a shop on his own. If the prince wants to find him, he can go to the south of the city and look for the Li family shop."
He sat on the chair, holding the teacup in one hand, steady.
Prince Yu's face was so gloomy that it looked like water was dripping out of it. He sneered, "It seems that Lord Shen has made up his mind to be that cruel, heartless and ruthless father?"
Master Shen Er smiled slightly but said nothing.
Song Qianru was not happy to hear this: "How can you talk like that? What do you mean by being heartless and ruthless? This girl is not even a child of the Shen family! Her father is Li Rengui, the Shen family's housekeeper. Shen Er only had two children, my wife and Shen Jianjun!"
"My wife doesn't have a sister like this!"
He looked Lu'er up and down, then turned away with disgust.
"My wife is not that ugly!"
Lu'er's crying stopped abruptly, and she stared at Song Qianru in disbelief.
Xihe coughed lightly and pulled his sleeve: "Don't talk nonsense."
Shen Jianjun couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Lu'er's face turned red instantly, and she pointed at them and said, "You are bullying me!" She turned around and threw herself into Prince Yu's arms, sobbing, and was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Prince Yu was so angry that he almost laughed: "Okay, okay, the Shen family is really good!"
He picked up Lu'er, gave Second Master Shen a sinister look with a smile, then turned around and strode out of the Shen Mansion. He was so fast that he must have been mad with anger.
Everyone in the room: "..."
Chen Jianjun hesitated: "Dad, that girl really wasn't your child?"
He scratched his head and frowned. "If it's true, don't tell anyone. Our family has so little property, and Lu'er and Prince Yu are definitely not easy to deal with! They will definitely suck the Shen family clean. Then Erya and I will get nothing."
Xihe: ???
When did she get the nickname Arya?
Chen Jianjun was so anxious that he stood up and said, "No! I need to hide some money and prepare it!" He hurried out of the flower hall.
Song Qianru burst into laughter and said to Master Shen Er: "It's okay, even if the Shen family is empty, don't you still have me? I will take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks."
Master Shen Er then smiled, feeling relieved and warm: “Well, I know.”
However, he would not allow this to happen.
Outside the mansion, Lu'er threw herself on Prince Yu and burst into tears as soon as she entered the carriage. She was really sad today. She thought that with the prince around, Master Shen Er would recognize her, but unexpectedly, he still didn't want to recognize her!
"Your Majesty, what should I do? Lu'er's heart aches. Why don't they recognize me?"
She completely ignored the fact that Second Master Shen said her father was Butler Li.
Subconsciously, she thought that the powerful and elegant Master Shen Er was her father. How could someone like Butler Li be her father? They must not want to recognize her, so they lied.
Lu'er cried and trembled all over: "What should I do? What should I do? Can I not marry you?"
Prince Yu's breath caught in his throat, and he hugged her tightly, his eyes determined: "Don't worry, I will definitely marry you, and I will definitely make them recognize you, even on their knees!"
Lu'er's heart trembled, and she hugged him tightly: "Prince, you are so kind!"
Prince Yu pursed his lips and looked out the window, his eyes were heavy, heavy again!
Ever since Prime Minister Fang had this person under his command, everything he wanted to do became much more difficult! Shen Er was like a slippery loach that was impossible to catch.
He thought that this time he could use Lu Er's incident to make him afraid to act rashly, but he didn't expect Shen Er to be afraid at all!
Prince Yu took a deep breath. It’s okay. He will scare him.
Xihe also learned from the system that during the time she had not paid attention to Lu'er, the girl had already squeezed out the princess and was about to take the throne.
Princess Yu's health was said to be deteriorating, and she lay in bed all day.
She felt that her time was running out and she could not serve the prince, so she sent her best sister to the prince, hoping that after she left, Miss Lu'er could take care of the prince in her place.
But Lu'er was of low status, and even after she escaped from slavery, she was still not allowed to appear in public.
It's okay to be a concubine, but she is not qualified to be a princess.
Prince Yu's mother, Concubine Ling, has recently been preparing to choose a new concubine for her son, and the two of them were so anxious that they almost got angry.
So somehow, I thought of Master Shen Er.
