After she handed the arrow feathers to Chunrou, she ran to ask her mother.
Sure enough, the emperor intended to marry his brother.
In the previous life, in order to prevent the General's Palace from being dominated by one side, the emperor forced Shen Yunjue to marry him, but the other party already had someone he liked.
Shen Yunjue struggled, but in the end he agreed under various pressures from the emperor. However, their marriage was unfortunate and even more painful.
"What's your brother's attitude?" Shen Yunshu asked Liu.
Ms. Liu's face was solemn, "Your brother was silent for a long time, and then asked your father something about you. I think your brother still doesn't trust you."
Shen Yunshu's nose felt sore.
In the previous life, she was the crown prince and had someone to protect her, so her brother could still struggle. But now, the affairs between the General's Mansion and Prince Qi's Mansion were making a big fuss. The brother must be afraid that someone would talk about her marriage, so he even struggled in the final nothing.
"But Miss Lin has someone she likes. Wouldn't a marriage be forcibly breaking up someone else's good marriage?" Shen Yunshu didn't want his brother to force himself this time.
Mrs. Liu's heart tightened, "Shu'er, how did you know that it was Miss Lin who the emperor wanted to marry, and how did you know that Miss Lin had someone he liked?"
Only then did Shen Yunshu come back to his senses, "Teacher Lin is already old, and he recently submitted a memorial to the emperor to resign and return to his hometown. If you want to choose a marriage for your brother, Miss Lin is the most suitable one."
In addition to Taifu Lin's retirement from the court, Taifu Lin's son and daughter-in-law died unexpectedly shortly after the birth of his granddaughter Lin Jinran.
In other words, after Taifu Lin retired and returned to his hometown, he lost his power in the court. Even if his brother, a major general, married Lin Jinran, the future of the general's palace would be less helped.
Finally, and most importantly, the emperor used the excuse of caring for the veteran minister to grant the marriage, which could appease people's hearts and achieve his goal.
"When did you know so much?" At some point, Shen Chenghai came and heard Shen Yunshu's words.
Then he scolded Shen Yunshu: "As a woman, you are not allowed to discuss government affairs. This is the most basic thing. As the eldest lady of the general's palace, don't you know this clearly?"
Shen Yunshu bowed and saluted, "My daughter knows, but what she said is the truth. If my brother trades his own happiness for my stability, I won't be happy either."
Seeing Shen Yunshu's firm attitude, Shen Chenghai said, "There is no need for you to interfere in your brother's marriage. Also, you cannot guess the emperor's thoughts."
"When a daughter grows up, the responsibility of protecting the family will not rest entirely on the shoulders of her brother. The daughter can also help her brother share the burden."
"If you don't continue to mess around with Yin'er, it will be considered as sharing the burden." Shen Chenghai said seriously.
Shen Yunshu's heart ached, "It turns out that in dad's eyes, it's me who's been fooling around."
"She Shen Qingyin can do anything wrong, but daddy wants me to be tolerant and generous, so since I was a child, I have been tolerant in everything. I even gave up my future husband to her. What else does daddy want from me?"
As he spoke, Shen Yunshu's tears fell uncontrollably.
But she just raised her hand and wiped away her tears without caring, "I gave in before, but I won't give in now."
"Also, I will take care of my brother's marriage!"
After leaving these words, Shen Yunshu left the main courtyard without looking back.
Mrs. Liu stood up and came to Shen Chenghai, "I know that my husband feels guilty about Yin'er, but even so, has your husband ever thought about whether it is fair to Shu'er?"
Everyone has seen how Shen Yunshu has treated Shen Qingyin over the years.
Shen Chenghai didn't want Shen Qingyin to be hurt and wronged, so could he let Shen Yun feel comfortable?
Shen Chenghai sighed, "I just don't want Shu'er to interfere in Jue'er's marriage."
After all, Shen Yunshu was still a little girl and knew nothing about the undercurrents in the court.
"But every time my husband says something to Shu'er, it's too harsh." Ms. Liu also understood Shen Chenghai's good intentions, but she didn't want the relationship between father and daughter to become so tense.
"It's not that I spoke too harshly, but Shu'er seems to have changed." Shen Chenghai always felt that his well-behaved and sensible daughter had changed.
"I think it's not that Shu'er has changed, it's that my husband feels that Shu'er's attitude towards Yin'er and the Crown Prince is not what he wants." Mrs. Liu said with one glance.
From the attitude of Shen Yunshu in Prince Qi's palace towards this matter and the incident on the Wangyue Pavilion cruise, Shen Chenghai knew that it was Shen Yunshu's counterattack.
In the final analysis, it was his fault as a father for not noticing the thoughts of his two daughters earlier.
"But, is what Shu'er said just now true?" Liu asked Shen Chenghai worriedly.
Shen Chenghai sat down worriedly, "Shu'er's analysis is correct. Although the emperor only mentioned it casually, judging from the current situation, Jue'er has the highest probability of marrying Taifu Lin's granddaughter."
"If Shu'er said that Miss Lin has someone she likes, if it were true, wouldn't it hurt several children at the same time?" Ms. Liu couldn't bear it.
"But if Jue'er doesn't marry Miss Lin, she might be sent to guard the border." This is what worries Shen Chenghai the most.
"What?"
Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she slumped down on her chair.
Not to mention being stationed at the border for many years and never being able to see your relatives, another way to describe being stationed at the border is to be demoted.
The Emperor wants to cut off the retreat of the General's Mansion!
Shen Yunshu came out of the main courtyard and left the house angrily.
"Miss, where are we going now?" Chunrou trotted behind Shen Yunshu.
"The Tutor's Mansion."
Maybe Lin Jinran still doesn't know that the emperor is going to grant her a marriage. If she tells Lin Jinran now, they can still prepare a way to deal with it before the emperor grants her a marriage.
"When did Miss and Miss Lin meet?" Chunrou asked, tilting her head as she didn't know the truth.
Shen Yunshu paused. She and Lin Jinran had only met each other a few times, but they had never spoken, so they were not considered acquaintances.
In her previous life, ever since she first met Lin Jinran, after she got married to her brother, she had always been a melancholy and resentful person.
In the past, she didn't understand why Lin Jinran, the most talented woman in the capital, became like this, but now she understood that everything happened because of this wrong marriage.
Soon, she and Chunrou came to the Taifu Mansion.
When the housekeeper of Taifu's Mansion saw that the person coming was Shen Yunshu, he invited him in.
"I wonder what Miss Shen has to do with our lady?" Butler Lin asked.
After all, Shen Yunshu and Lin Jinran had no intersection.
"I read a book recently, but I couldn't figure out the meaning of some lines in the book, so I wanted to discuss it with Miss Lin."
Butler Lin just nodded and ordered people to take Shen Yunshu to the garden to find Lin Jinran.
At this time, Lin Jinran, who was wearing a light yellow dress, was sitting in the pavilion in the lotus pond reading a book.
The scenery and Lin Jinran merge into one, so quiet and beautiful that people can't bear to break it.
In the end, it was Lin Jinran's personal maid Songya who interrupted her train of thought.
Lin Jinran stood up gracefully and looked at her with a smile.
When Shen Yunshu walked to the pavilion, she said bluntly: "Miss Shen didn't come to me to discuss poetry, right?"
