Chapter 401: Shen Family
"Master, the Sixth Prince is back."
Yuanxiao was outside. As soon as he finished speaking, the Sixth Prince ran in.
"Mom! I'm hungry!"
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "Are you hungry again? Did you go to study or fight in the morning?"
"Reading, I'm hungry." The Sixth Prince hugged Shen Chuliu's legs: "I want to eat meat."
"Okay, eat meat. Go wash and change your clothes, and then you will have meat." Shen Chuliu rubbed his head.
The Sixth Prince raised his head and nodded.
Shen Chuliu smiled and pinched his cheeks a few more times.
This little guy is growing more and more handsome. The Sixth Prince is looking more and more like the emperor.
Genes are powerful.
The Sixth Prince was not so hasty or dirty when eating. Once the food entered his mouth, he would close his mouth and chew.
It looks cute with puffy cheeks.
Shen Chuliu picked up the things he liked for him. The Sixth Prince had become very good at using chopsticks by now. Although they sometimes slipped, he basically made no mistakes.
After eating and drinking his fill, the Sixth Prince rubbed his belly with satisfaction.
"Are you full?" Shen Chuliu pulled him over and hugged him.
"Yeah." The Sixth Prince hugged Shen Chuliu and said, "Mother, Fifth Brother is naughty again."
"Why are you naughty? Are you not studying well?" Shen Chuliu was curious.
"He dozed off and the tutor was beaten with a stick. Mother, why was it the tutor who got beaten?" The Sixth Prince was puzzled.
"Because you are all princes, the tutors dare not beat you, they can only beat your companions." Shen Chuliu touched his hair and explained: "Even so, it is not good to let your companion be beaten because of your own mistakes? You don't have a companion now. If you make a mistake, the one who will be beaten is your personal eunuch."
"Oh." The Sixth Prince thought for a moment and said, "I won't doze off."
"Well, Yan'er is a very capable child. Although he is a little noisy, he is still very serious in studying. Mother knows it all." Shen Chuliu said.
At first, she was worried that this naughty child would not study hard and would make it difficult for others to study.
On the contrary, he made as much noise as he could when he was making trouble, but he didn't make any trouble when he was studying.
"How did mother know?" The Sixth Prince was extremely surprised.
Shen Chuliu laughed out loud: "Mother is very good at fortune-telling. If you don't study hard, mother will know it. Then she won't let you eat meat."
"Hehehe." The Sixth Prince hugged Shen Chuliu: "Then I will study hard."
"Good boy." Shen Chuliu rubbed the child's cheek, lowered her head and gave him a kiss: "Yan'er, why are you so cute? Mom loves you the most."
The Sixth Prince felt embarrassed by the praise and broke free, wanting to go back to Ruiqing Palace.
Shen Chuliu asked someone to send him off and also gave him some snacks.
"Our Sixth Prince has become more sensible." Zi Rui said with a smile.
"At least he's well behaved. I was just afraid that he wouldn't want to study hard. If he didn't want to, I wouldn't force him. But in life, one must have some ability to make a living. One cannot do without studying." Shen Chuliu shook his head.
"Look how worried you are. Isn't he not only studying hard, but also quite smart? Master..." Zi Rui squatted down and whispered: "Will you...give the Sixth Prince a brother?"
Shen Chuliu reached out and pinched her face: "I'll take a nap."
Zi Rui was a little disappointed: "Oh."
Shen Chuliu just lay down.
Naturally, this topic came to an end.
Shen Chuliu fell asleep without any burden in his heart.
In Qingzhi Pavilion, Shen Biyu, who had suddenly fallen from Baolin to the changing room, finally woke up.
The house had changed; all the good things had been taken away, including her own private silver.
At this moment, all the servants were dismissed and she was the only one here.
She propped herself up and sat up, only to feel a severe headache. She sat there for a long time like a fool.
I heard the voices of servants talking in the yard, but they were all from Chen Xiaoyi's side.
She sat there for an unknown amount of time before she finally burst into tears.
It was not until dinner time that a eunuch brought in a food box and said, "Shen Gengyi, have dinner."
Shen Biyu looked at the room which was getting dark and didn't know what to do.
He slowly stood up and walked to the door, but didn't dare to go out. He stepped back and looked at the food box on the table.
In the lunch box, there were two very simple dishes and rice. She felt weak just looking at them.
Naturally, I couldn't eat. I just sat on the stool, crying and dazed, and spent the whole night like this.
By the time the Shen family and the Liang family learned about all this, the dust had already settled, and the Liang family was even preparing to go north back to their ancestral home.
It was the youngest son of the Liang family who came to the Shen family to say goodbye to her.
"My grandparents are both ill. My father asked me to tell my aunt that we should take care of ourselves in the future."
Liang was shocked and panicked, but there was even hatred in the eyes of Liang's youngest son.
Because of his aunt, his eldest brother was crippled, his second brother died, and now his family can't even stay in the imperial city.
Even if I become a poor commoner in the future, I don't want to be involved with the Shen family anymore.
Liang couldn't stop her nephew and could only return to the inner courtyard in despair. Only then did she learn that Shen Biyu had been demoted from Baolin to a clothes changer.
She fainted all of a sudden, and when she woke up she went to Hua Xi Tang crying, "Grandma, please help the Liang family through this difficult time!"
Qu was already furious. It would have been fine if she hadn't seen her, but when she saw her she was filled with anger.
She threw the teacup in her hand over to him: "You still have the nerve to beg! You still have the nerve to cry? I was blinded by greed and agreed to send that idiot to the palace. Look at what a stupid thing she did! Isn't it a blessing for the Shen family that Concubine Jing Zhaoyi and the Sixth Prince are doing well? She was so stupid that she plotted with your nephew. If there is really something wrong between them mother and son, you can't afford to pay for it even if you die!"
Liang was stunned: "Mother-in-law, are you blaming me now? Weren't you more satisfied with Biyu at the beginning? Weren't you worried that Chu Liu and the Shen family were not on the same side at the beginning? Why are you blaming me now?"
"Okay, what is my sister-in-law talking about. When have Empress Jing Zhaoyi and the Shen family not been of one mind? In the past few years, everything has been going well for our family because of the Empress. The eldest master and the third master have also benefited greatly from it." Song said.
"Sister-in-law, of course! The Song family is doing well, but what about me?" Liang said angrily, "If my mother's family falls, what good will it do to the Shen family?"
"Your mother's family is ruined because your daughter and nephew are stupid! I was patient with the previous things, but look at what you have done. How much has the third brother suffered because of you? Shang's life is gone! If you hadn't been so intolerant over the years, how could the third brother have done this?" Qu snorted.
"Now you're saying it's all my fault?" Liang looked at Qu in despair. "Is it me who is at fault? My family has fallen into this state, and the Shen family doesn't care?"
"Sister-in-law, if it weren't for the Shen family and Concubine Jing Zhaoyi, your family would have been executed. Although your father is an ordinary official, he is still an old minister. The emperor will not investigate further because of him. What do you want the Shen family to say now? Sister-in-law, you still have a son."
