Shen Chenghai also just came back from the palace.
After attending the morning court, he was stopped by the emperor and queen.
He also did not expect that the emperor and the queen meant to make Shen Yunshu the crown prince's concubine.
When Mrs. Liu saw that Shen Yunshu was still silent, she hurriedly said, "Shu'er, as long as you don't want to, we just won't get married."
Shen Chenghai said seriously: "What you said is very light. What if the emperor directly decrees the marriage?"
Shen Yunshu raised his eyes and looked directly at Shen Chenghai, "So how did dad answer to the emperor and queen?"
More than other remarks, what Shen Yunshu wanted to know most was how her father responded.
Shen Chenghai avoided Shen Yunshu's gaze, and after a while, he slowly said, "The grace is great, and the prince is virtuous. If the emperor really grants you a marriage, it will be a good thing for you."
In other words, he did not object to the emperor's marriage.
"Shu'er, don't blame your father..."
Mrs. Liu knew that there was a estrangement between father and daughter between Shen Yunshu and Shen Chenghai. If there were any conflicts over this matter, they would probably not be able to talk to each other in the future.
But before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Shen Yunshu, "Mom, actually I understand what dad meant."
She could understand her father in this matter. After all, from their point of view, the prince was a good husband.
Be generous and kind, and treat each other with courtesy. Even if you are a concubine, I believe that the prince will not treat her badly.
"Dad is right, the prince is a very good candidate."
Shen Chenghai was a little surprised, "You mean you agree to this marriage?"
"But I believe the father knows the thoughts of the Emperor and the Queen better than the daughter."
If nothing else is considered, the prince is indeed a very good candidate, but the emperor and the queen want to use this to control the general's palace and control the Liu family business that Shen Yunshu is currently holding.
If the news about Shen Yunshu taking over the business had not spread, the queen might have to think more about the marriage.
But Shen Yunshu now has the blessing of Liu's business, which will be of greater help to the prince in the future, so she announced the marriage to the emperor before the imperial concubine.
Shen Chenghai also fell into silence, "If the prince can be kind to you."
He didn't go on, maybe he wanted to tell Shen Yunshu that as long as the prince treated Shen Yunshu well, he would be willing to do so even if the entire general's palace was used as a dowry.
Shen Yunshu turned his back and said, "Don't worry, Dad, this marriage won't be decided so easily."
As mentioned before, now that she has become a popular person, I believe that the imperial concubine will also take some measures, and with Xiao Linyou's temperament, even if she can't get it, she won't let others get it.
"What do you know?" Listening to Shen Yunshu's tone, Shen Chenghai seemed to understand the current situation.
Shen Yunshu looked at Shen Chenghai calmly, "Uncle Mo asked me to visit their home."
This simple sentence made both Liu and Shen Chenghai stunned for a moment.
Seeing Shen Yunshu leaving the front hall, Shen Chenghai and Liu couldn't help but look at each other, and then they both sighed.
"What else is this old guy going to do?"
He and Mr. Mo hadn't sat down and talked calmly for a long time. Why did Shen Yunshu still want to be a guest in his house now?
Could it be that he also wants his daughter to be his daughter-in-law?
——
Imperial Palace, Chonghua Hall.
The imperial concubine hurriedly came to find Xiao Linyou and told Shen Chenghai that the emperor and the queen wanted Shen Yunshu to be their concubine.
"Concubine, there's no point in worrying now." Xiao Linyou was very calm and calm.
"Why don't you tell me not to be anxious? If you had agreed before and took the initiative to confess to your father that you like Miss Shen, now this marriage will be yours."
The imperial concubine had persuaded Xiao Linyou before, but Xiao Linyou didn't agree with anything she said. Now that she's good, her daughter-in-law is about to fly away.
Xiao Linyou helped the imperial concubine sit down, "Even if Shen Yunshu takes over Liu's business now, whether she can do it well or not is still one thing. What's more, she is not as simple as imagined."
In his opinion, Shen Yunshu disguised herself so well that no one could see her true face clearly.
"The more such a person is, the most important thing is to be around you. If you want to sit on that throne, how can you not get blood on your hands? With her help, how many troubles can be solved."
Speaking of it, the imperial concubine admired people like Shen Yunshu.
No matter what she faces, interests are always at the forefront. As long as she is given a goal, she will try her best to achieve it.
But Xiao Linyou didn't think so. He only felt that keeping Shen Yunshu by his side would be a disaster.
"Don't be anxious yet. I believe my son, the queen will not succeed." He comforted the imperial concubine.
When the imperial concubine heard this, she asked, "Do you have any plans?"
Xiao Linyou saw the expectant look on his mother's face and said, "Of course my son has to think of a way to get to know Miss Shen better."
Only saying this can appease the imperial concubine's heart.
"Are you telling the truth?" The imperial concubine was still a little worried, fearing that what Xiao Linyou said was not true.
Xiao Linyou answered very clearly: "It's true."
The imperial concubine's face immediately showed a smile, "If you ask me, Miss Shen is the most suitable for you. With the prince, she can only be a side concubine, but with you she is the upright and upright concubine."
"Miss Shen is very good-looking. If she matches up with my royal son, the grandson born in the future will definitely be the most beautiful."
She was already looking forward to it, and she was looking forward to it even further.
In fact, when she first came into contact with Shen Yunshu, she did not have a good impression of Shen Yunshu, but after contacting her, she found that Shen Yunshu was very smart and knew how to use her own advantages.
If she could become Xiao Linyou's good wife, it would also make her, a mother-in-law, feel more at ease.
"Mother and Concubine can see that Miss Shen is actually kind-hearted. When you face her, don't be so harsh and harsh. Girls like to hear nice things."
She knew that her son, apart from saying soft things to her and Xiao Miaoyi, would never say anything to other women.
"You have to think about it all the time. Miss Shen and you will be one in the future. Only if she is good will you be good, so you must keep your temper and wait for the day when your great cause is achieved. You can do whatever you want."
At least for now, they need the support of the General's Palace and the financial resources behind Shen Yunshu.
So Xiao Linyou felt a little aggrieved.
When Xiao Linyou saw the expectant look on his mother's concubine's face, he really couldn't bear to let her fantasy be shattered.
After seeing off the imperial concubine, Xiao Linyou called Changfeng.
"Since we can't let Shen Yunshu be our help, let alone let her be the help of others."
