Chapter 2: Broken Engagement
The hall is quiet, and the potted plants give off a tranquil scent.
Yun Zhuan suppressed her inner bitterness and sat down obediently. When she raised her head slightly, she saw the Shen family whom she had ignored.
Shen Yiyi, the culprit who caused her to fall off the rockery, was looking at her with hatred.
How ridiculous! When did people who harm others become so self-righteous?
Shen Yiyi's brother, Shen Jue, was the person that Zi Yun Jue'an of the previous generation cared about.
When Yun Jue was young, she was playing in the water by the lake and fell into the water. It was Shen Jue who saved her. From then on, she became Shen Jue's little tail and wished she could give him her heart.
How could you know that this person doesn't care at all?
Yun Ju'an's face darkened. In her previous life, the unhappy end of her life was already a repayment for Shen Jue's life-saving grace.
But she will definitely avenge the blood feud of Wu'an Marquis Mansion with her own hands!
However, this did not happen in her previous life when she was eleven years old. Could it be that she changed so that she could be reborn?
"Now that both families are here, just say whatever you want to say!" Shen Huan, the current head of the Shen family, looked a little impatient.
"Master Shen, don't you know what's going on? Why were you invited to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion?"
"Look at the wound on Jiaojiao's forehead. It hasn't healed yet." Yun Ji'an's father, the Third Master Yun, Yun Ke, said in a steady voice.
Shen Yiyi muttered: "We didn't do this!"
Yun Ke looked surprised and turned his head to look at Shen Huan: "Is this your family's tutor?"
Shen Jue pulled Shen Yiyi to his back and said angrily, "Don't talk."
This stupid sister of his has been holding him back a lot!
"Even so, what can it prove?" Shen Huan said calmly, "It's common for children to bump into each other."
Yun Rui raised his hand and asked someone to invite the doctor in.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Yun's brain was severely damaged by an external blow, so it will take some time for her to recover." The doctor trembled all over and stated the facts tremblingly, "If she had not been rescued in time, I'm afraid that Miss Yun's tablet would have been in front of you..."
Yun Rui had a blank expression on his face: "I wonder if Lord Shen has anything to say about this?"
Only a fool would believe that this was just a quarrel between children. This was clearly intentional murder!
The trip to Xishan Temple was caused by Shen Yiyi's sarcastic remarks towards Yun Zhuan, and Shen Jue only helped her sister. In the panic, she accidentally pushed Yun Zhuan off the cliff. Fortunately, her personal maid Duhuo arrived in time and used herself as a cushion to save Yun Zhuan.
Even so, the brain still suffered a great shock and he almost lost his life.
The Shen family originally wanted to conceal the truth, but no one expected that Yun Zhuan was still alive!
Otherwise, the Wu'an Marquis Mansion would have no way to pursue the matter, and there would be no reason to do so!
Isn't this just stomping on the face of the Wu'an Marquisate?
The eldest and second uncles of the Yun family both had gloomy expressions. No matter how absurd and unreasonable Yun Jianan was, he was still a member of the Yun family.
Moreover, Yun Ke lost his first wife at an early age and had two daughters, whom he loved very much, especially Yun Zhuan. When she was two years old, Yun Ke sent her to be raised by her uncle, Marquis Wu'an, because he did not want her to be confined to the inner court.
But they are all men after all, and they are busy with official duties, so they have very little time to accompany Yun Zhuan'an. Let alone Wu'an Hou, even Yun Ke can only be seen once every half a month!
Although I had no one to talk to during my childhood, my family loved me sincerely.
I have completely let down my father and grandfather's efforts and are pushing myself into the Shen family's fire pit.
No wonder Yun Zhuan felt like something was missing from his side!
It turned out that Duhuo was injured while saving her and was no longer by her side to serve her.
Shen Jue was only sixteen years old, with a handsome appearance of a scholar and beautiful handwriting. He looked up to all the noble ladies except Yun Ju'an from the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion!
"Yun Ju'an, you tell me." Shen Jue stared at Yun Ju'an, feeling that something was different about her. "We are engaged, and you put a lot of thought into it..."
There was a faint threatening voice. Could it be that if Yun Zhuan didn't answer her properly, he would threaten to cancel the engagement?
But this is definitely the Shen family’s fault!
Yun Juan sneered, this Shen Jue is really a hypocritical gentleman!
He's already dead in this life, are you still afraid of him? !
Yun Ke suddenly spoke, his voice full of anger: "How dare you!"
The sudden and brutal attack frightened Shen Jue so much that his body trembled!
Threatening the young lady of Wu'an Marquis Mansion in Wu'an Marquis Mansion?
In front of the elders!
"Shut up and listen to what Jiaojiao has to say!" Wu Anhou placed his hand on his precious granddaughter's shoulder with an expressionless face, "Just keep talking."
[Don't be afraid, Jiaojiao! Aung is your indestructible backer! ]
The area outside the front courtyard was guarded silently by the soldiers of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
The silk inside the flower hall was not affected at all, and the sound was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Yun Yuan stood up, first bowed to Old Master Shen and Shen Jue's father, then said coldly:
"I, Yun Zhuan, have already died once, but fortunately, I finally survived! Shen Jue, Master Shen, do you think that as long as I like you, you can use me and abuse me at will?"
Shen Jue and Shen Yiyi are not well-mannered, but she is!
Yun Zhuan thought about what Lu Zhe had said before: "Shen Jue is not a good place for you."
"Shen Yiyi's new jewelry, the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone you like, I am also stupid, if you like them, I am willing to buy them for you with my own money! I have experienced countless injustices, indifference, and blame, every one of them, have you, Shen Jue, been wronged?"
Yun Ju'an was a man of low voice, but his words were like a sharp blade, cutting through the masks of the Shen family.
Shen Jue was a little angry and immediately defended himself: "Isn't this something you are willing to give?"
"In the past, I would not turn back until I hit the south wall and would not give up until I crossed the Yellow River in order to please you." Yun Ju'an changed the subject and knelt in front of Wu'an Hou and a group of elders in the next second. "But now, Jiaojiao regrets it. Please, Grandfather and Father, cancel my engagement with Shen Jue!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone stood up in shock.
The Yun family was naturally overjoyed!
In the past, Yun Zhuan was stubborn, like Shen Jue's little tail, which inevitably made the Yun family embarrassed. However, Yun Zhuan had a pitiful life experience, and the Yun family just let her do what she wanted.
Not only that, Yun Ju'an couldn't tolerate anyone saying anything bad about the Shen family. Yun Ke wanted to explain the facts to Yun Ju'an, but was interrupted by her coquettish and willful manner, and she didn't take it to heart at all!
As time went by, Marquis Wu'an was afraid that she would be unhappy, so everyone turned a blind eye to it!
However, the Shen family was a narrow-minded family after all. They knew that they were holding on to a big tree, but they still looked down on Wu'an Hou, a military officer who could not even produce a few scholars.
After all, Shen Jue is the apple of the Shen family's eye. Even if she does something wrong, the Shen family will go along with her as long as Shen Jue is happy. But who knew that this little girl would dare to take advantage of Qiao and cancel the engagement!
"Yun Jianan, let's cancel the engagement! Don't regret it later and come to beg me again!" Shen Jue felt embarrassed after saying this. He threw his sleeves with an angry look on his face and wanted to leave.
Wu Anhou said in a cold voice, sitting in the first seat without moving: "You ignorant boy, when you are in my place, do you come and go as you please?"
"Shen Mu, I have already sent someone to draft the letter of withdrawal of engagement. After you finish writing the letter, I will send someone to the Shen Mansion to get the token. After the Shen family girl apologizes, you can leave!"
Yun Ke calmed down and said slowly, "Otherwise, I can only ask my elder brother to hand you over to the government. For intentional injury and crimes, at least your precious granddaughter and grandson can be imprisoned for a few days..."
Then they spent money to get them out, losing both the wife and the army.
Not to mention, the whole of Upper Kyoto will laugh at their jokes!
Don't be ignorant, look back quickly, during the epidemic period, you are not allowed to stick together, you are not allowed to gather in groups, otherwise I will beat you
