At this point, Shen Ningyun's voice trembled, her eyes were sore, and she almost shed tears.
After hearing Shen Ningyun's words, the king's expression changed several times.
Shen Ningyun clenched her hands tightly, she hadn't finished speaking yet!
My aunt suffered so many grievances back then and never harmed the Lord at all. Why did she turn into such a sinister, vicious and unscrupulous person in His words!
"My lord, my aunt never discovered what you did back then. She just couldn't bear to hurt you!"
"If you want to use the Soul-Seducing Gu, the Gu must enter your body. My aunt has thought about it again and again, and no matter what, she dare not kill the leader of a country and the diligent king in the hearts of the people of Nanli for the sake of the lives of the Shen family! "
"My aunt gave up on this path, so she started trying medicine and poison on herself, and she even advised dad to retreat bravely."
"My lord, my father has served as prime minister for so many years and has done so much for Nanli. However, in order to eliminate your suspicion and fear, my father still did not hesitate to relinquish his ownership position and even cut off all the disciples who were both disciples and friends. Got in touch.”
"Lord, why do all the efforts of our Shen family turn into calculations and ulterior motives in your eyes?"
Shen Ningyun's voice was passionate, and by the last sentence, she couldn't help but beat her chest with her hands, feeling extremely sad.
In order to avoid suspicion, the Shen family has gone to the extreme, and now no one in their immediate family is an official in the government.
Her eldest brother and younger brother were both martial and literary, and they were very prosperous young men in Kyoto. Now they are confined at home, not daring to interact with friends, and living in such a miserable state.
But the Shen family is the founding father of the country and the patriarch of three dynasties. Their father is famous and respected by people all over the world. They can't stop him!
Should the Shen family be allowed to defile their family name?
Dad is proud of himself, and would rather die than let the ancestors of the Shen family and the whole family bear any reputation for disloyalty and injustice!
"My lord, haven't we the Shen family done enough? Do we have to wait until everyone in the Shen family is dead before we can completely eliminate your suspicion?"
The king lowered his eyes to look at the excited Shen Ningyun, his eyes were completely unfamiliar, and his face was a little embarrassed.
The reason why he just mentioned what Shen Huilan did back then was to shock Shen Ningyun and put an end to Lao San's delusions.
After all, being of the Shen family’s bloodline means that the third child will never be able to take the throne!
But what he didn't expect was that Shen Ningyun, who had always been so cowardly and without any opinion, would actually stand up at this moment and question him in front of the foreign ministers.
"Okay, but it turns out that your usual gentle and obedient demeanor is just an act. How can you convince me that your Shen family is the same on the inside and the outside!"
"Back then, when Shen Huilan failed to give birth to a son, she reached out to Gu's two princes. Isn't it just to keep the throne firmly in the hands of your Shen family!"
Shen Ningyun seemed to have expected that the head of the country would talk about this. Her expression remained unchanged and she spoke in a deep voice:
"Back then, my aunt was looking for doctors and medicines in order to have a baby, but one time, she was diagnosed by a doctor with superb medical skills. She had already been infected with a strange poison. Not only was she unable to have children again in this life, but she also couldn't live long."
"My aunt was so sad that she almost collapsed, because she knew very well that the strange poison in her body was also the master's handiwork."
"My aunt knew that she was about to die soon, so she had to plan another way for the Shen family. At that time, the Lord only had two princes. Although His Highness had bad personal ethics, he was favored by the Lord. His Second Highness acted thoughtfully but was not favored by the Lord."
"It was obviously the safest move to choose His Highness at the beginning, but my aunt couldn't bear that the king who lives away from the people is a man who is greedy for pleasure."
"So she finally fell in love with His Highness the Second Highness. In order to win over His Highness the Second Highness, she found her as a concubine."
"My lord, this is my aunt's selfishness. She spent all her time and energy just to protect the lives of the Shen family. But I didn't expect that before this matter came to my lord, my aunt was already exhausted." .”
Having said this, Shen Ningyun suddenly raised his head, looked at the king with burning eyes, and said in a deep voice:
"Or maybe the Lord had an insight into my aunt's plan, and in order to completely cut off the Shen family's retreat, he hurriedly poisoned my aunt to death, and everything was over!"
"Asshole!"
A hint of guilty conscience flashed across the king's face, and then he became angry and raised his hand to throw it at Shen Ningyun's face.
However, the next moment, Baili Chengyou was already protecting Shen Ningyun, and the king's wrist was held by another strong hand.
The king slowly turned his head. When he saw the person pulling him clearly, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words:
"Dick!"
The second prince had a resolute face and cold eyes. Facing the unbelievable look of shock and anger on his face, he never took a step back.
The king's chest rose and fell violently, and at this moment he felt hot blood all over his body rushing to the top of his head.
"Second brother, do you know what you are doing?"
Everyone looked at the second prince, including Shen Ningyun who was being protected by Baili Chengyou, and the second prince who was not far away.
The second prince opened his mouth and said in a deep voice: "Father, did you already know about your son and his wife back then?"
At that time, with the help of his ex-wife, he met Shen Ningyun, who was the legitimate daughter of the Shen family at that time.
He is indeed cold-hearted and cold-hearted. Women are of no importance to him. The so-called wife is just a person who reaches the right age and finds a suitable person to have children and procreate.
At that time, he was willing to meet Shen Ningyun, mainly because the Shen family might help him win the position of crown prince.
But after meeting Shen Ningyun, his mind was completely changed.
He fell in love with her at first sight, and after talking with her, he discovered that beauty was just one of her insignificant advantages.
The Shen family is really good at educating their daughters. The ex-wife is already the best among girls, and this Miss Shen is also full of knowledge and has a lot of beauty in her chest.
He was deeply attracted by her knowledge and conversation. Just sitting across the tea table and chatting, without any physical contact, he was already deeply involved.
From the calculation at the beginning to the joy later, the two of them were obviously in love with each other and recognized each other.
After his ex-wife died of a sudden illness, he and Yun'er no longer had the opportunity to meet. He knew that Yun'er had a deep relationship with his ex-wife, and that the relationship between aunt and nephew was like mother and daughter, so he looked for an opportunity to comfort her.
Unexpectedly, the message I received was answered with the message that we would never see each other again.
He didn't understand what he had done wrong, and almost couldn't help but find the Shen family. But in the afternoon of that day, news spread in the palace that Shen Ningyun, the legitimate daughter of the Shen family, had been designated as the wife of the stepmother.
Now when he recalled that day, the second prince could still remember his collapse and loss of composure.
How could the girl he loved so much become his nominal mother?
