Shen Jiarui also knelt down and said in a cold tone: "I am not an imperial physician, and I cannot treat illnesses."
Xia Bangyuan said stubbornly, "Ever since returning from the Shen residence that day, Yinfeng has had a persistent high fever and is unconscious. In the occasional moments when she is lucid, she keeps mumbling the name of Shen Jia Erlang."
[Heh! This is clearly about putting the blame on others!]
[Even the dirty trick of feigning illness has been brought out into the open.]
[On the one hand, she likes the young marquis, and on the other hand, she wants to marry Shen Jiarui. She really thinks Shen Jiarui is a fool who takes over the job! Too much!]
Su Qiqi cursed.
The emperor sneered, "Lord Xia, according to what you said, Xia Yinfeng's illness is all caused by the Shen family? Shen Jiarui must marry Xia Yinfeng?"
"Of course not." Xia Bangyuan's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
He gritted his teeth and pleaded, "I know that my daughter is not worthy of the position of the general's wife. I only ask that Mr. Shen be kind enough to take my daughter into his room, even if it means being a concubine. I will be satisfied."
Anyway, Shen Jiarui has not married a wife. As long as Yinfeng enters the Shen family, he will have unlimited opportunities and will be able to win Shen Jiarui's heart sooner or later!
Even though she was a concubine, she was considered to have climbed up the Shen family's ladder.
He should not give face to others, but to the Buddha. In the future, officials in the officialdom will respect him more. The men of the Shen family will also have more choices for their future.
Thinking of this, Xia Bangyuan secretly revealed a smile of success.
It’s a pity that he was kneeling with his face buried, so others couldn’t see the expression on his face.
"No, I'm asking a question."
Shen Jiarui suppressed the rage in his heart and asked, "Master Xia, are you saying that Xia Yinfeng is dying?"
Xia Bangyuan thought Shen Jiarui was just concerned about Xia Yinfeng, so he pretended to be heartbroken and sad. "He hasn't eaten or drunk anything for two days and has a high fever. Jiarui, you two have some friendship. You can't just stand by and watch him die, right?"
"She's almost dying, and you want me to marry her? Are you kidding me?!"
Shen Jiarui raised his voice, shocked and angry.
He roared, as if he had suffered a great injustice, "Sister-in-law just married into the family and only started to take charge of the household yesterday. Now you want me to marry a dying man. Isn't this deliberately making things difficult for her? What are you thinking, Master Xia?"
The sound was so loud that everyone present could hear it clearly.
The entire hall was eerily quiet.
No one expected that Shen Jiarui was no longer stupid, but was eloquent and could say such words.
