This scene also fell into the eyes of the lady.
The lady frowned, thinking that Lady Mu was too cruel. Chu Qianhuang had called her grandmother for so many years and had always been filial to her. Besides, the matter of exchanging children had nothing to do with Chu Qianhuang.
"Sister Huang, come here." The lady waved at Chu Qianhuang and said softly, "This has nothing to do with you. Aunt Jiang is asking for trouble."
The moment the lady's hand grasped Chu Qianhuang's, the tears in Chu Qianhuang's eyes finally couldn't be controlled and slid down her cheeks.
The lady wiped Chu Qianhuang's tears with a handkerchief, and her voice became more loving, "Don't worry, grandma is here, she will make the decision for you."
Chu Qianhuang cried even harder.
The lady looked at Shen and said in a tone of admonition: "Azhi, I will let you punish Jiang Minshan however you want. But when it comes to my sister Huang, I have to say something to you."
"You raised Sister Huang, and the grace of raising her is greater than the grace of giving birth to her. How can you completely ignore the mother-daughter relationship?"
The lady really couldn't understand Shen. Was the mother-daughter relationship between her and Chu Qianhuang for more than ten years fake? Chu Qianhuang was excellent in everything, so she was chosen by the queen to be the princess's companion. But what did Chu Qianchen have to show for it? He was just good at scheming and pleasing others!
"Grandma..." Chu Qianhuang's tears fell even more violently, her voice choked and hoarse, and she couldn't sob.
Shen looked at Chu Qianhuang, whose face was covered in tears. Her graceful face was expressionless, and she said indifferently, "You have always been unwilling for me to take care of her. That's perfect. From now on, I will no longer take care of you."
Chu Qianhuang's eyes widened, her face paled even more, and she said in a trembling voice: "Mom, you will always be my mom."
"I don't deserve it." Shen's eyes were cold.
Chu Qianhuang felt as if she had been stabbed again, her body was shaky and her teeth were clenched tightly.
The lady looked at Shen with a reproachful look, but Shen remained as still as a mountain.
She looked at Chu Qianhuang and said, "I raised you all by myself. From a hungry baby to a beautiful young lady, I have always regarded you as my pride."
"But what about you? What do you think?"
Shen didn't mention how Chu Qianhuang instigated Chu Qianling to target Chu Qianchen, nor how Chu Qianhuang intended to protect Aunt Cui. She only talked about the most recent incident: "What did you add to the benzoin I often use?"
Shen's expression was extremely calm, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"..." Chu Qianhuang's eyes wandered.
Shen continued, "Because you don't want to go to Shangde Academy, and because you think I'm blocking your way, so you want me to be sick and make way for you, is that right?"
"In that case, I will completely give way to you."
She is not her biological mother, and she cannot control her. Just let them live their own lives from now on.
The wife of Duke Mu had just learned about this, and her expression changed again. She looked at Chu Qianhuang in disbelief.
She actually secretly drugged her daughter! !
In an instant, all the sympathy that Lady Mu had for Chu Qianhuang disappeared.
Nanny Chen also had a complicated expression. She and Shen had never discussed this issue directly, but she had vaguely guessed it, but she just didn't want to believe it.
"Mom, it's not like that!" Chu Qianhuang wanted to defend herself, but Shen didn't want to listen.
Shen stood up and said to Lady Mu and Chu Qianchen, "Mother, Sister Chen, the rain has stopped, let's go."
Just as Shen said, the thunderstorm outside had stopped.
Only a few raindrops were left dripping along the eaves. The air after the rain was exceptionally fresh, and the lush branches and leaves became even greener.
The wife of Duke Mu and Chu Qianchen both stood up and said goodbye to the lady in a lukewarm manner.
The three of them walked out of the main hall. Chu Qianhuang wanted to chase them, but she didn't. She knelt down again and shouted, "Mom!"
Her cry was so heart-wrenching, but Shen did not stay or look back, and walked straight out of the main hall.
Chu Qianhuang was still kneeling on the ground, staring blankly at the backs of Shen and Chu Qianchen as they left.
This scene overlapped with the memories in her dream.
It was the same in the dream. Shen abandoned her and chose Chu Qianchen, and they left without any regrets.
Only she became a joke.
Chu Qianhuang's eyes were filled with panic, and she didn't know for a moment whether she was in a dream or in reality. She subconsciously tapped her fingertips, and the pain from her fingertips told her that this was reality!
Things have finally come to this! "Sister Huang." Seeing Chu Qianhuang helpless, the lady felt so distressed that she signaled Nanny Wang to help Chu Qianhuang up.
She walked slowly to Chu Qianhuang, hugged her granddaughter affectionately, and patted her shoulder, "Don't worry, you still have your grandmother. Grandma won't be as cruel as your mother. Grandma will definitely help you!"
The lady felt sad again that Shen was too cruel.
"Grandma," Chu Qianhuang slowly turned her head to look at the old lady. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her eyes were dull and lifeless. "The benzoin was just added with cinnabar, which will make people weak..."
"I just wanted to contribute to the family, but my mother insisted on her own way and refused to let me enter the palace as a companion. She also wanted to send me to Shangde Academy. However, my father injured his leg and lost his job. Our Chu family is getting worse and worse..."
"I am the eldest daughter of the Chu family. I cannot help but think about the Chu family..."
She simply added cinnabar to the benzoin, and a small amount of cinnabar would only make people tired and exhausted.
She didn't want to hurt Shen. She just wanted to make Shen lose her spirit so that she would have no energy to take care of her.
The current development just proves that everything she did was not wrong.
What's wrong with her paving the way for herself? !
She didn't want to be an abandoned child who was ignored by everyone like in her dream. She didn't want to end up like in her dream!
"Sister Huang," the lady felt even more sorry for her and took her hand to sit beside her. "Grandmother understands you."
Chu Qianhuang is the eldest granddaughter whom the Dowager has loved since she was a child. The relationship between the grandmother and granddaughter is special. Among so many girls in the Marquis' Mansion, Chu Qianhuang is the granddaughter that the Dowager loves the most.
"Your mother is possessed by a demon and is also confused by anger."
Chu Qianhuang buried her face in the lady's shoulder, tears falling again, like a wronged child who finally found his relatives and burst into tears.
She couldn't stop crying and her body was shaking.
She looked weeping, but she was surprisingly calm inside.
Fortunately, she had never counted on the Shen family.
Ever since she traveled to this world and experienced everything in her dream, she had never counted on the Shen family.
Shen only cares about blood ties, and in her heart, only the child she gave birth to is her daughter.
In the dream, Shen abandoned her once; now, Shen abandoned her again when she needed her most.
She had done nothing to feel sorry for Shen. It was Shen who was cold and indifferent, and it was also Shen who abandoned her.
Chu Qianhuang glanced outside the hall, but could no longer see Shen, Chu Qianchen and the other two outside.
When the wind blew, the trees in the courtyard swayed in the wind, and the raindrops on the branches and leaves fell down, as if it had started another drizzle.
“Huahuahua…”
Chu Qianchen, who followed Shen into the carriage, was blown by some rain, and a small patch of his hair got wet.
"Sister Chen, let me wipe it for you." Shen personally used a handkerchief to wipe the water droplets from Chu Qianchen's temples with gentle movements.
She was actually not as calm as she appeared, and her fingers were trembling uncontrollably.
Chu Qianchen pretended not to see it and looked at Shen gently.
Soon, Dongmei and others, who had packed their things, arrived, and two carriages drove out of the corner gate of the marquis' mansion one after the other.
For Shen, this time when she left the Marquis' Mansion, she had a different feeling than the last time.
Last time, she took Chu Qianhuang and Chu Yunmu away with her, but this time, she left Chu Qianhuang behind, forever... as if she had cut a piece of meat from her body.
It hurts so much.
However, there are some things she must face and some people she must abandon.
After Shen helped Chu Qianchen wipe, she withdrew her hand, holding the slightly damp handkerchief in her hand, and asked, "Sister Chen, why?"
Why stop her from opening the ancestral hall? ! Lady Mu Guogong also looked at Chu Qianchen curiously.
Shen was puzzled. Lady Mu, the Duke's wife, was more sensitive to state affairs and she immediately understood that Chu Qianchen was concerned about the balance between Prince Chen's Mansion and the Emperor.
Seeing that Shen's lips were dry, Chu Qianchen personally poured her a cup of warm flower tea, "Mom, drink tea."
Chu Qianchen's expression and mood were extremely calm; his eyes were as clear and bright as the blue sky after the rain.
对她来说，找到真相就够了，其他的事都不急，她必须以王爷为优先。
皇帝给她与王爷赐婚，是不怀好意，是存心以她这个庶女来折辱王爷。
双朝贺红那日，她与王爷已经打了皇帝的脸，这对皇帝来说，就是计划外的变数，皇帝心里想必已经对自己生了不满。
如果现在她又从庶女变成了嫡女，尽管永定侯府上不了台面的，但是，也相当于再度打了皇帝的脸，皇帝多疑，也许会怀疑这桩婚事是不是王爷的安排，那么皇帝很有可能会再有所动作。
她知道王爷不怕皇帝，她也同样不怕皇帝，只是，她好不容易才把王爷的身体调理得差不多了，眼看着她就可以给王爷治伤了，现在绝不能再有任何的变数。
是嫡是庶并不重要，也不过是个名头罢了。
她知道自己是谁的女儿就好。

楚千尘对着沈氏歪着头笑，唇畔浅浅的笑涡乖巧俏皮，而又甜美。
也是。沈氏慢慢地眨了眨眼睛，在细思后，也缓过神来。
她不知道顾玦的伤病，所以只以为楚千尘是因为赐婚的事，不想她的身世刺激到了皇帝。
沈氏更加心疼楚千尘了，她这小小的年纪，就要去费这么多神考量这么多事，换作别的姑娘，现在这个年纪还在娘家由娘宠着呢。
“可是……”沈氏心里纠结极了，既不想给女儿添麻烦，但又受不了女儿背着庶女的名头。
楚千尘安抚地拍了拍沈氏的手，“娘，不急在一时，等楚令霄从西北回来再说。”
沈氏：“……”
沈氏总觉得楚千尘的话意味深长，莫非楚令霄在西北的差事还能出什么问题不成？莫非女儿从宸王那里听说了什么？！
想着这是朝事，沈氏就没敢问。
她动了动嘴唇，小心翼翼地问道：“尘姐儿，你在王府怎么样？”
楚千尘抿唇笑，那笑意从唇角蔓延到她的眼角眉梢，如三月里的春风般让人迷醉，让人这么看着，心就柔软了起来。
沈氏的心软得化成了水，此外，还有一丝丝痛。
这十几年来，楚千尘在侯府一直过得不好，自己很少看她这么笑。如今她摆脱了侯府，才能笑得这么开怀，这么无忧，这么愉悦。
“尘姐儿，都是娘不好。”沈氏紧紧地抓着楚千尘的手，心疼地说道，“以前你在侯府的日子太苦了……”
一个姑娘家在娘家应该是过得最舒畅的时候，可是楚家留给楚千尘的却全都不是什么好的回忆。
而这一切，都是因为她这个当娘的失职了……
沈氏当然也不想楚千尘从此活在楚家的阴影中，宽慰道：“以后你在王府好好地与王爷过日子，我那天也看出来了，王爷对你不错。”
宸王不比楚令霄，他一定能看到楚千尘的好，能记住楚千尘的好。
她的尘姐儿先苦后甜，日子一定会越来越好的。
楚千尘见沈氏想歪了，也没解释，反而顺着沈氏的话劝道：“娘，您离开了永定侯府，也能过得更开心的。”
何必为了和一个人渣斗气，赔上自己一辈子呢！ “……”沈氏没有搭话。
楚千尘知道沈氏还在钻牛角尖，没再继续劝。
反正离楚令霄回京还有一段时日，她回头再慢慢劝就是了。
她笑道：“娘……”
话还没说完，他们所乘坐的马车突然就停了下来，伴随着马儿不安的嘶鸣声。
外面的街道上一片喧哗，似乎围着不少人，嘈杂的人声、马声、车轱辘声传了进来，纷杂凌乱。
陈嬷嬷就问了车夫一句：“怎么了？”
外面的车夫答道：“前面锦衣卫正在拿人，把这一路的马车都拦下了，一辆辆地在搜查往来的马车。”
马车里的几人面面相看。
外面的喧哗声越来越响亮，街道上都是人，马车与路人都被堵在了路上，进退两难，街上还有两边酒楼、铺子的人跑出来看热闹。
车夫只能把马车暂时靠边，停在了路边，略显拘束地往前张望着。
前方，十几个身着大红色飞鱼服、身配绣春刀的锦衣卫正在搜查几辆马车，一个个都人高马大，面目森冷，那些被搜查的马车也只能认了倒霉。
锦衣卫让下马车，他们就下马车；锦衣卫提出搜身，他们就由着锦衣卫搜身；锦衣卫说带走，他们也不敢说一个“不”字。
围观的路人都对着那些被搜查的马车指指点点，有人问锦衣卫这到底是在找什么人；有人同情这些人倒霉；有人说锦衣卫未免也太跋扈了……
这“跋扈”两字才出口，周围的其他人避之唯恐不及地退了好几步，生怕和这个嘴上没个把门的人扯上关系。
锦衣卫自然是跋扈的，自太祖皇帝设立锦衣卫后，锦衣卫既是皇帝的耳目，也是皇帝手中的一柄利剑，可以逮捕任何人，也包括皇亲国戚，朝中文武百官谁也不敢得罪锦衣卫！ 这些个普通百姓自然是畏锦衣卫如虎。
没一会儿，其中五六个锦衣卫就气势汹汹地朝穆国公府的马车走来，为首的国字脸总旗趾高气昂地说道：“锦衣卫要搜查，里面的人都下来！”
车夫挤出一个笑容，客客气气地抱拳，并亮出了国公府的名号：“这位大人，我们是穆国公府的人，马车里面的我家国公夫人。”
几个锦衣卫这才多看了这辆马车一眼，马车上刻有穆国公府的徽印。
不过即便是这样，这些锦衣卫也没有一丝一毫的动容。
他们锦衣卫有越过朝中各部只向皇帝汇报的权力，皇亲国戚他们都敢查，更别说区区的穆国公府了。
那总旗身边一个细眼睛的锦衣卫冷冷地甩了下手里的马鞭，轻蔑地说道：“穆国公夫人又怎么？！我们锦衣卫是奉皇命办差，今天就算是穆国公本人在这里，也还是要搜！”
“不仅要搜车，还要搜身！”
“快，赶紧让马车里的人下来，否则，别怪我们不客气了！”
在锦衣卫咄咄逼人的气势下，车夫汗如雨下。
现在马车上的都是女眷，尤其沈芷还病着，不能见风，穆国公夫人活了大半辈子，也从没有被人叫嚣着当街赶下马车。
坐在车夫身旁的江沅气定神闲地挑了挑浓黑的眉毛。哎呦，这锦衣卫还真是好大的威风啊！ 车夫正迟疑着是不是让人回府搬救兵，或者请示一下穆国公夫人，就在这时，一只纤白的素手挑开了窗帘的一角。
那只手纤细修长，十指尖尖，肌肤洁白如初雪，仿佛掐一下就能挤出水来，修剪整齐的指甲粉粉嫩嫩，泛着如珠贝般柔和的光泽。
手如柔荑，肤如凝脂。
那总旗眼睛一亮，目光灼灼地盯着那窗帘被那只手徐徐挑起，露出半张白净的面庞。
年轻的姑娘一头乌黑蓬松的青丝挽了一个松松的纂儿，鬓角戴的珠花嵌着一颗颗耀眼的红宝石，每一颗都如鸽血红般鲜艳通透，光华四射，衬得她肤白似雪，乌发如墨，眸似星辰。
她的五官精致明艳，气质高雅清冷，顾盼间自有一股天生的尊贵气度，彷如一朵带刺的玫瑰，光艳夺人。
总旗看呆了眼，心里不由道了声可惜，瞧着这姑娘年纪还小，偏就已经为人妇了，心里猜测她应该是穆国公府的少夫人或者出嫁的沈氏女。
楚千尘知道锦衣卫这些年一直越来越横行霸道，因为今上宠信锦衣卫，更重用锦衣卫。
自今上登基后，这才短短几年，锦衣卫在朝中可谓一枝独秀，根本就无人敢招惹。
现在锦衣卫明显是在拿着鸡毛当令箭！ 别人怕他们锦衣卫，她可不怕。
楚千尘微一挑眉，直视着那个锦衣卫总旗，语气清冷地问道：“你们要搜查？”
少女的声音犹如山涧清泉般悦耳，听得总旗心口一热，嘴上就没了把门，笑嘻嘻地说道：“小娘子海涵，锦衣卫执行公务，这街上的马车每辆都要查！”
“不过，瞧你们都是老弱妇孺，要是行动不便，不下车也行，那就等着哥哥上去找你。”
他的语气中带着几分戏谑，几分调戏，后方随行的锦衣卫不由发出一声哄笑。
这马车上都是女子，真要让锦衣卫上去搜查，这传扬出去，穆国公府女眷的清誉可就没了。
沈氏听这锦衣卫自称什么哥哥占女儿的便宜，登时大怒，正要发作，却被楚千尘按住了手。
