Since his daughter's wedding, Shen Yun has been training the soldiers Xiao Ling had recently recruited in the military camp, and he rarely comes back for more than ten days or half a month.
Xiao Ling's fiefdom was some distance from the capital, and even riding a fast horse back, it would take most of a day.
Fortunately, during Shen Yun's absence, Wang Yuan, a gentle and virtuous woman, took care of all the big and small matters at home.
Otherwise, how could an old woman like her possibly manage?
While missing her son, Wang was also planning Shen Yun's marriage.
Shen Yun was already twenty-two years old after the New Year. In the capital, which man of his age didn't have three wives and four concubines, and a house full of children?
Only his own Yun'er is still all alone, without even a close female companion.
With Minister Li's grandson already born, Madam Wang was so anxious she didn't know what to do.
Now, with a well-behaved, sensible, gentle, virtuous, and capable woman right in front of her, she started to make her plans.
"Don't let the good stuff go to outsiders." My own niece is definitely better than others, and she would never harm me.
After pondering for a long time, Wang made up her mind that she would arrange a marriage between Shen Yun and Shen Yun when Shen Yun returned, so that the two would become even closer relatives.

"You should be able to see your sister Jia'er again soon."
Speaking of Shen Jia, for the past month or so, she has been either confined to her home or alone in her room.
Since the last incident, Yang Shujing had only visited her room once. After finishing, Yang Shujing did not linger and boarded the sedan chair to head towards Zhaiyue Pavilion.
With a delicate concubine like Green Bamboo by her side, Yang Shujing visited Lanqu Garden much less often.
During the last homecoming visit, Shen Jia was unable to return. Yang Shujing made an excuse that Shen Jia had caught a severe cold, and that Marquis Wuding had sent many rare treasures to the General's Mansion.
With Yang Shujing's persuasive words, both Wang Shi and Shen Yun believed it to be true. Considering the abundance of treasures, neither of them had any further doubts.
