Chapter 185 Stepping Stone
What's more, Shen Chuliu is now on a rapid rise and has become Empress Xiuyuan.
If there is real resentment, how can the Shen family be well? "Fourth sister looks good now. It's different after all because you are pregnant with the heir. Grandfather and grandmother are very worried about you, fourth sister." Shen Biyu said with a smile.
The resentment in her heart was extremely deep. As the legitimate daughter of the Shen family, she had never been convinced by her fourth sister who had lost her parents since she was a child.
Why should she be convinced now? Why should I be her stepping stone?
Shen Chuliu smiled faintly and did not respond.
This statement, any response, would sound like showing off, but she didn't think her pregnancy needed to be shown off.
In the eyes of the Shen family, she should not feel wronged, but even if she is living a good life now, it cannot be said that the Shen family can be forgiven for forcing her to enter the palace.
Even if she is living a good and happy life now, the pressure from the Shen family is still an objective reality.
You can't ignore it just because the result is good.
Maybe someone can, but Shen Chuliu can't.
The day she saw clearly how cruel the Shen family was to her, an orphan, she knew that she could never forgive them.
"Biyu is ignorant, please don't blame her, Madam." Qu smiled and said, "Next year will be the general election."
This was a reminder to Shen Chuliu.
"Grandma is right. Since my fifth sister is going to run for the election, a family like ours doesn't have to go through so much trouble. We can make our own arrangements when the time comes. But, have Grandma and my fifth sister thought it through?" Shen Chuliu asked with a smile.
There wasn't a trace of reluctance in her words.
Mrs. Qu listened, but she felt very uncomfortable: "Your Highness never told her family about the difficulties she had in the palace, but there is no easy way to go in this harem. Your Highness has now come to Xiuyuan, and it is difficult to support it alone. After all, Biyu is a family member. After coming in, she will only assist the Highness. The Highness is the main thing. Biyu."
Shen Biyu knew that she couldn't say no now, so she smiled and said, "Of course, my sister is in front, and I can only assist her."
No one would believe this.
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "Okay."
That's good, since the Shen family insists on sending a daughter here to waste her time.
That's good, since Shen Biyu is so ignorant.
That's good, since Qu thinks she won't care about what happened in the past.
Unless Shen Biyu has the ability to pull her down and step on her.
Otherwise, she would never ask Shen Biyu to take the lead.
Just because she is her sister, she will never be able to get ahead.
Shen Biyu felt a little uneasy, but said nothing.
Qu not only came to take a look, but also gave some silver.
Shen Chuliu was smiling the whole time, just like a concubine who was really looking forward to her family members coming in.
Qu also accepted her reward, and when they went out, Shen Chuliu sent them to the door.
Very enthusiastic, and very reluctant.
But Qu just felt uneasy, and Shen Biyu had always had the same feeling.
On the way back to the house, Shen Biyu said, "I'm afraid Fourth Sister won't want to let her granddaughter in."
Qu didn't respond, but just closed her eyes and rested.
When they were almost there, Qu said, "Biyu, if you have the ability, grandma will not say anything. But you must remember that you should think about the Shen family while you are in the palace. If the Shen family is doing well, you will be well. If you are well, the Shen family will be well too. Don't fight with each other, or it will benefit others."
"Yes, Biyu knows." Shen Biyu responded.
But what she was thinking was, how could she not fight after entering the palace?
Unless the two sisters were the same in everything, how could that be possible?
The emperor was extraordinary and brave, and she fell in love with him at first sight, so how could she not fight?
After returning home, Qu went to the front yard to meet Jing'an Hou.
After hearing what happened today, Shen Changjing sighed, "Your Majesty, you don't understand. Sending Biyu in will only bring benefits. It's always good to have Biyu's help. No matter how powerful your Majesty is, two fists can't beat four hands."
"I think so too." Qu nodded.
"It's okay. When Biyu goes in, she will know. But you should also teach Biyu well and make her more sensible. If her sister is well, she will naturally be good too." Shen Changjing said.
Qu agreed.
The old couple's idea was very rational, but they ignored the fact that Shen Chuliu and Shen Biyu were both human beings.
As long as one is a human being, he or she has a heart, and if there is a heart, there will be struggle.
They are sisters, married to the same man, how can they live in peace? If they must be one on top and one on the bottom, who would be willing to be the bottom? The bottom in the palace is a slave! Giving you something can only be called a reward.
They are all proud and arrogant daughters of the first wife, who would be willing?
Not to mention that Shen Biyu is not very willing now. Even if she is willing, how can she not have ambitions after entering the palace for a long time? Moreover, there are so many people in the palace, fighting each other, how can they not take action? Shen Changjing thinks that if they encounter a crisis, the two sisters will solve it better by joining forces.
After all, Shen Chuliu handled the problem very well when he was alone.
It doesn't make sense that the two of them can't do it.
This is the man's way of thinking. He probably really believes that the women in the backyard can live in harmony.
Shen Changjing was away from home all year round, and he had several concubines in his early years, but they all died because they couldn't stand it.
He didn't leave any offspring. Qu had never failed in this regard in his life, so naturally he didn't think so much about it.
Maybe he thought that it is dark under the lamp, and he cannot understand clearly when it comes to his own family.
Anyway, no matter what, Shen Biyu is bound to enter the palace.
Shen Biyu's mother Liang hired a nanny to teach Shen Biyu, and she was almost telling her directly that Biyu could replace Shen Chuliu in the palace.
I had only thought about it in the past, but today I really saw it, everything in Cuiyunxuan and Shen Chuliu’s noble life.
Shen Biyu was deeply impressed by the dignity hidden behind the palace rules.
She thought that with her looks, she was destined to be by the king's side.
In this world, apart from the Emperor, who else is worthy of her serving?
In Cuiyunxuan, Shen Chuliu had lunch and took a nap before he felt in the mood to talk to Zirui.
Zi Rui was very angry that day. Even though her master was so capable, the family still wanted to send another one in.
Have you never thought about what your master is thinking?
Shen Chuliu comforted her with a smile: "So, if I want to deal with Shen Biyu in the future, will you think I am cruel?"
Zi Rui shook her head: "No, she deserves it!"
"You see, I have given up long ago. If they loved me, why would they ask me to enter the palace? Since they don't love me, it doesn't matter what they want to do. I just feel sad that having me is not enough, and they even ask Shen Biyu to endure this palace for the rest of her life. But today I saw her and I knew. She doesn't think this is torture." Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "I overestimated her in the past. She is far inferior to Shen Biqiong."
"So, what's there to be angry about? Once my child is born, I can move forward and then I can have my face reshaped." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
"That could be Xiuyi." Zi Rui also smiled.
"So, let's live our own lives and don't be sad about such a trivial matter. It's not worth it." Shen Chuliu patted her hands.
Awooooooooo
