After saying this, Fang Qingyue inadvertently talked about Liu Yunyun again.
"Why haven't I seen her come to the mansion these days?" she asked tentatively, carefully looking at Shen Yuhan's expression.
"I won't let her come anymore." Shen Yuhan picked up Fang Qingyue, held her in his arms, and patted her gently.
"But your engagement..." Fang Qingyue's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but feel a little hopeful.
Even though she knew that Shen Yuhan didn't care about the baby in her belly, she still hoped that she and Shen Yuhan could have a good ending.
"I'll find a chance to reject her proposal." Shen Yuhan kissed Fang Qingyue's cheek with a hint of pity. "I don't like Liu Yunyun, and I have no plans to marry her. To me, the most important person right now is you."
"Wait for me for a while, okay? Once this matter is resolved, I will definitely give you a status."
He lowered his eyes and looked at Fang Qingyue, his eyes filled with affection and pity.
Fang Qingyue was stunned for a moment and said, "But my father died because he betrayed his country. How can you marry me?"
Having hope is one thing, but actually making it come true is another.
Now that she had just moved into Shen Yuhan's house, she had heard a lot of gossip.
Countless people felt sorry for Shen Yuhan, thinking that his intimacy with the daughter of a criminal was damaging to his reputation.
"I will clear your father's name." Shen Yuhan hugged Fang Qingyue tightly. "Now that you and I are of one mind, your father's affairs are naturally my affairs as well."
Fang Qingyue snuggled in Shen Yuhan's arms, her hand gently brushed across her belly, and finally nodded.
If this is really possible, it would be great.
After all, the child in her belly cannot be without a legitimate status.
Shen Yuhan gently pushed Fang Qingyue down on the bed.
He knew that Fang Qingyue was not feeling well, so he did not think about what was going to happen between them. He just lowered his head and kissed her gently.
After the kiss, both of their eyes turned red. After a while, Shen Yuhan stood up and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm going out first, you take a good rest."
Fang Qingyue wiped the water stains from the corners of her lips a little embarrassedly and nodded: "Okay."
Before Shen Yuhan walked out the door, Fang Qingyue suddenly called out, "Prince."
Shen Yuhan turned around with some confusion and looked at Fang Qingyue.
Meeting Shen Yuhan's gaze, Fang Qingyue suddenly smiled: "Thank you."
Whether it was because of Shen Yuhan's protection of her over the past few days, or because of Shen Yuhan's promise to give her a legitimate status, or because of Shen Yuhan's attempt to clear Fang Xifu's grievances, she remembered every single one of them and was extremely grateful to Shen Yuhan.
No matter what it was for, she deserved to thank Shen Yuhan.
After all, at the beginning, she just wanted to use Shen Yuhan.
Shen Yuhan curled his lips and smiled, saying: "There is no need to talk about this between you and me."
Two days later, the spy sent by Shen Yuhan to the Marquis' Mansion got news.
"I found several letters in the study of the Marquis' Mansion. They were correspondence between Ning Liangcai and Li Junyi." The spy handed the letters to Shen Yuhan respectfully. "These letters were hidden among other letters in the Marquis' Mansion. I stumbled upon them and discovered them."
He searched the study for two days, turning it inside and out, but he never imagined that the letter was mixed in with all the correspondence.
"That's normal." Shen Yuhan tightened her fingers and said in a cold tone, "Although my brother is obsessed with calligraphy and painting, he never cares about letters. Most of the letters in the mansion are replied by Li."
So the two of them flirted so blatantly through letters, but his brother was completely unaware of it.
Shen Yuhan clenched his palms tightly and restrained his strength so as not to crush the letter.
Most of these letters were love letters between Ning Liangcai and Li. The letters were written in an extremely ambiguous manner. The words were so explicit and the language used between the lines was so bold that even Shen Yuhan, who had experienced love affairs, could not bear to read them.
He scanned the letters almost at a glance and finally found a few old letters among them.
"Brother Cai, my mother-in-law has been asking me to go to her room these past few days. It seems like she has discovered what's going on between us. I'm really scared... I wonder if you can think of a way to make her shut up."
"Sister Yi, my men brought a poison from somewhere else. This poison can make people mute and, after a few days, they will suddenly die. It seems that she is in a coma due to physical weakness, which is why she is like this. I have sent the poison with the letter, you can secretly put it in your mother-in-law's food."
"Brother Cai, I've already administered the poison. But that little bitch Shen Yuhan keeps running to my mother-in-law's room all day. My mother-in-law has been vomiting blood these past two days. I was worried he'd find out, so I told him it was because he kept going to my mother-in-law's room that she became seriously ill and vomited blood. That little bitch actually believed it... Once my mother-in-law dies, Yu'an will be able to inherit the Marquis's position. As the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, I won't let him stay in the mansion. After all, the way that little thing looks at me is so scary..."
After reading this, Shen Yuhan slammed his palm hard on the table.
He was so strong that the mahogany tabletop was shattered into pieces in an instant.
When Fang Qingyue heard that the spy had received the news, she also rushed to Shen Yuhan's study, and saw this scene.
She immediately walked over to Shen Yuhan, gently patted Shen Yuhan's shoulder, and comforted Shen Yuhan: "Your Highness, there is no need to be so angry about these two people. You are almost being watched now. If you show too much excitement, I'm afraid people will find out."
Shen Yuhan hugged Fang Qingyue tightly, buried his head in her chest, and calmed the anger in his heart.
In fact, he always knew that his brother and sister-in-law did not like him, so when he became capable, he immediately rushed to the border.
His mother's death had a significant impact on him after all, but he remembered that his mother had never said a bad word about Li Junyi.
At that time, my mother was still in good health and was always in charge of the household chores. Although she was partial to him, she never shortchanged the eldest wife's food, clothing and other expenses, and even gave her more things.
But Li Junyi actually killed her mother because she was discovered having an affair with Ning Liangcai.
How painful it must have been for the mother at that time.
Now when he thought about it, Shen Yuhan felt a little hot in his eyes.
"Your Highness, can you let me see these letters?" Fang Qingyue gently stroked Shen Yuhan's hair and said in a soft voice.
Shen Yuhan handed the letter to Fang Qingyue, but his fingertips were still trembling slightly. He was a little afraid that Fang Qingyue would realize how stupid he was back then.
After Fang Qingyue read the letter, she couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"How does the prince plan to deal with Ning Liangcai and Li Junyi? After all, Li Junyi is now the Marquis' wife. It may not be easy to deal with her."
Even though Shen Yuhan's position was much higher than hers, as long as Shen Yu'an was still the Marquis, it would be too difficult for him to sue the Marquis's wife.
Hearing this, Shen Yuhan clenched his palms tightly, and after a while he said, "Let's pretend we don't know about this for now."
