608 Forced Marriage (1)

The matter of Princess Ming An in the capital caused a huge sensation among the people. After a long time, the people of the Judicial office could not find anything. Emperor Wen Hui flared up every few days and punished a few officials, but apparently, it was about to become an unsolved case. The Crown Prince of the State of Qin, Huangfu Hao, was naturally displeased, but the people he sent out did not find anything either. After a while, with the passage of time, people’s enthusiasm for this matter faded. After all, everyone had to eat and live.

In the cold winter in the capital, something big happened in the old Shen mansion.

Shen Yue was engaged and was about to get married.

The family Shen Yue would marry was the Wang family, which Shen Wan and Chen Ruoqiu found to be quite suitable. The Wang family only had two sons. The youngest son was less than ten years old now, and the eldest son was Wang Bi, the person who was engaged to Shen Yue. Wang Bi was 24 years old this year and had already become an official. He was knowledgeable and was a person with a bright future.

In Chen Ruoqiu’s opinion, she thought that this marriage was well-matched. Wang Bi was the eldest son of the Wang family, and Shen Yue was very educated. If she could win his heart and give birth to a few children, her position in the Wang family would be stable.

Chen Ruoqiu agreed to the marriage without Shen Yue’s knowing. When Shen Yue found out about this, she naturally caused a scene. However, this time, Chen Ruoqiu didn’t back down and was bent on marrying her off, and Shen Wan, who had always doted on Shen Yue, did not soften his heart either. Old Madam Shen was even more happy to see this happen because more people in the mansion meant more expenses every day.

Shen Yue went overboard kicking up a fuss. Even though Shen Wan usually did not punish his daughter, this time, he felt that Shen Yue had gone too far. In a fit of anger, he locked Shen Yue up in the ancestral hall and asked her to reflect on herself.

That night, Shen Yue sat alone in the ancestral hall and cried silently.

There were traces of a fire in the ancestral hall. The last time, Shen Miao was locked up in this ancestral hall, and Ren Wanyun tried to force a marriage upon Shen Miao. Unexpectedly, a fire broke out for some reason, and Shen Xin happened to return from the border, so Shen Miao got away with it. Shen Yue looked at the tightly shut door of the ancestral hall. It seemed that from that moment on, everything went smoothly for Shen Miao. Because Shen Xin, Ruo Xueyan, and Shen Qiu backed her up, Shen Miao was not afraid of anything. Shen Yue believed that if Shen Miao wanted to marry Fu Xiuyi one day, Shen Xin and his wife would definitely not stop her like Chen Ruoqiu and Shen Wan.

Shen Miao used to like Fu Xiuyi in the past. Would her old love rekindle? Now that Shen Xin was back and held a lot of power, would Fu Xiuyi reject Shen Miao? Moreover, Shen Miao was no longer the idiot that the entire capital made fun of two years ago.

At the thought that Shen Miao might be with Fu Xiuyi, Shen Yue felt especially uncomfortable. She wondered why the fire in the ancestral hall did not burn Shen Miao to death.

Just as she was thinking, she heard the sound of the doorknob moving outside. Shen Yue thought that Chen Ruoqiu had sent someone to deliver food to her and shouted angrily, “I don’t want anything. Get lost.”

The sound didn’t stop. Shen Yue shouted angrily, “I told you to get lost!”
