Chapter 212: Avoid
Shen Yuling lived a leisurely life as a widow in Ruijin County.
To others, she only said that she already had a son who was growing up safely in her husband's family, while she was enjoying life alone in Ruijin County.
However, due to her outstanding appearance, many dignitaries had ill intentions and tried to get close to her.
When Shen Yuling was working in the modern entertainment industry, she was no longer surprised by such scenes, and she had long been accustomed to the various habits of some officials in Ruijin County.
However, interests are always the core of people's pursuit.
When she can bring tangible benefits to these officials, they will weigh the pros and cons.
To them, women are nothing but passing clouds, and the benefits they get are not something that anyone can give.
When she acts like a strong woman, these people will not have any other ideas.
But she has to pay a price to have everything she has now, such as smiling all the time and dealing with all kinds of people.
But Shen Yuling doesn't think there is anything wrong with this. As long as you master the rules, the way of survival in ancient times and modern times is actually the same.
She had her own considerations for choosing to stay in ancient times.
Firstly, this is her own body, it is her life. Why should she give up if she can live well?
When she died in ancient times and then returned to modern times to start a new life, it was equivalent to living twice.
Secondly, looking back on the two lives that the original owner had experienced, both ended tragically.
In the first life, the eldest prince ascended the throne, and the Shen family was inevitably wiped out by him.
In another life, Concubine Su's fourth prince ascended the throne with the help of Feng Moheng. Although Liu Shihan died, Feng Moheng and Liu Jingyi lived well. The Shen family eventually ended up with a tragic ending due to the emperor's suspicion.
Shen Yuling has lived in this world with Shen's parents for sixteen years and has deep feelings for the Shen family.
Perhaps only if his son ascends the throne and becomes emperor can the Shen family be truly prevented from being destroyed.
Furthermore, since she had given birth to a son, she had to plan for his future.
If Quan Minghe treats her son badly, she will use her last wish to take her son out of the palace, and the mother and son will live a peaceful life from then on.
Her son was born using the original owner's body and Kwon Myung-hyuk. He is completely from this world. According to the rules of 001, people cannot be brought to the modern era.
Just like when she was pregnant, the system couldn't take her away unless she aborted the baby or gave birth to it.
If Quan Minghe trains their son carefully, and his son inherits the throne in the future, the Shen family may be able to provide assistance in military power.
As for financial resources, she naturally had to make secret preparations for her son.
After all, the eldest prince is several years older than his son and has to enter the court early.
Although Quan Minghe dotes on their son, the eldest prince is also his blood. When the critical moment comes, in the face of the power struggle, it is really hard to predict whether Quan Minghe can be completely biased.
Therefore, she had to take precautions in advance and pave a more secure path for her son to ascend the throne.
Her wealth and the students she is currently sponsoring will be a great help to her son in the future when they pass the imperial examinations and enter the court.
Cha Mi's identity was despised by the nobles, so she did not come to the banquet.
Yunqi contacted Cha Mi privately after she heard from her friends that Cha Mi could contact Shen Yuling.
As the dusk deepens, the sunset glow spreads across the sky like brocade.
Shen Yuling left the banquet at the Yun Mansion and her carriage stopped in front of the mansion.
The carriage was decorated extremely exquisitely and luxuriously. The body of the carriage was made of precious wood, and the windows were inlaid with clear colored glass, which sparkled with tiny lights in the afterglow.
The guards behind him were dressed in neat attire, with long swords on their waists, and lined up in two rows in a majestic manner, highlighting the extraordinary status of their master.
At the same time, Ye Jinshu also left the banquet.
A guard quickly stepped forward and whispered something in his ear.
Ye Jinshu nodded slightly, and after a little thought, he walked towards the most prosperous street in Ruijin County. His slender figure and steady steps attracted the attention of passers-by.
After leaving the banquet, Shen Yuling went straight to her own shop to inspect.
She had just walked out of a gold jewelry store, and when she looked up inadvertently, she saw a familiar figure.
In an instant, her heart tightened, but her face remained calm, like a bottomless pool without a ripple.
Why is Ye Jinshu here?
She pondered in her heart, but did not look at him, but walked towards the carriage calmly.
Ye Jinshu looked at Shen Yuling's back, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
He also didn't understand why he cared so much about this woman with a child.
In the past three years, he always felt empty inside, as if he had lost something important.
But when I saw this Madam Shen today, that familiar feeling came over me like a tide.
He walked forward as if possessed by a ghost, his voice as gentle as jade: “Mrs. Shen.”
When Shen Yuling heard the shout, she was shocked again.
Based on her understanding of Ye Jinshu, he was not the kind of person who would casually chat up women, not to mention that he even knew his current identity.
"Who are you?"
Shen Yuling pretended to be confused, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.
“I am Yunqi’s cousin Ye Jinshu. I have also been in business before. I learned about Madam Shen’s deeds from Yunqi and I admire her in my heart.”
Ye Jinshu explained with a smile.
Shen Yuling frowned secretly.
Now she just wants to live freely in this world and doesn't want to get entangled with any man.
Especially for Ye Jinshu, if she gets entangled with him and arouses Quan Minghe's suspicion, then her peaceful life in this life will probably come to an abrupt end and she will be forced to return to the modern world.
Over the past three years, she has secretly learned a lot of information.
She learned that her fifth prince Quan Xiyao had lived in Weiyang Palace with Emperor Qianyuan Quan Minghe since birth and was taught by Quan Minghe himself.
Quan Xiyao's name has a special meaning, and the degree of favor he received shocked the ministers in the court.
There were even ministers who wrote letters to the emperor, saying that his majesty's preference for the fifth prince was unfair to the other princes, but these advice were firmly rejected by Quan Minghe.
Shen Yuling left the child to Quan Minghe. After all, there was a real heir to the throne. She was very satisfied with the current situation and did not want anyone to break this peace.
"Mr. Ye, you are too kind. It's just a small business. I can make a little money to help my son in my husband's family have more confidence in the future."
Shen Yuling responded with a chuckle, her tone somewhat humble, but in fact she was deliberately distancing herself from Ye Jinshu.
She didn't want Ye Jinshu to focus on her.
One of her wishes was to make Ye Jinshu forget her and let him live his life again. This wish could not be in vain.
And now, she has experienced all kinds of men.
I have no man in my mind, I just want to pursue my career and live my life freely and carefree.
Shen Yuling thought so and did not give Ye Jinshu a chance to talk. "Master Ye, I have something else to do in my house, so I will leave first."
Shen Yuling bowed slightly, said goodbye politely, then turned and walked towards the carriage.
Ye Jinshu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he could only watch her back disappear in the carriage.
Is he being disliked?
Why do I feel that this Madam Shen is avoiding me?
