Chapter 653: Malice Comes From the Palace!

The first thing you see when entering is a screen. Shao Yanru almost doesn’t know what to say to such a broken screen!

One side of the screen is rolled up and the other side is worn. The most serious thing is that one of the areas seems to have been repaired. At first glance, it looks very wide. The screen should look solemn and extraordinary, but unfortunately it does not look like this at this time. There is a hint of decay.

Looking back, I saw that every pendant on the chair had been sewn with a needle, but each one had a bad stitch angle. Just a few random stitches made it look worse than when it was not repaired. Some may have deliberately found other materials to make up the difference because there was no similar cloth.

It can be said that there are various styles of mending.

Shao Jie'er stared at all this in stunned silence. She opened her mouth and found that she couldn't say anything mean. What she saw now exceeded all her imagination. Is this really a young lady's main house? It looks like a house filled with debris, nothing good.

I looked around and found that there were either knocks or broken parts. The people living in this house tried hard to make up for everything, but they found that not only was it unseemly, but it also made those shortcomings infinitely magnified. Just one look at it makes people feel extremely shabby!

"This...the fifth sister repaired these by herself?" Shao Yanru took a while to find her voice.

"Of course the maids and I repaired it together. It looks newer, and it's more comfortable to repair it myself!" Shao Wanru said with a calm smile.

With delicate pink face, bright red lips, and soft light in her eyes, she looked absolutely beautiful. But when such a face appeared in front of Shao Yanru, she was so angry that she wanted to hit someone. She gritted her teeth and suppressed the pain in her heart. Angry, he said: "I'm afraid it was done by the restless servants. When I go back and tell my mother, I will definitely give the fifth sister some new ones!"

This means blaming all the things on other servants and has nothing to do with Mrs. Xingguo!

"It doesn't matter whether it's new or old, as long as it can be used, it just doesn't look good. If a guest comes here and sees everything in front of me, I'm afraid he will say that he thinks that I, the fifth lady of the Xingguo Palace, , I won’t mess around with my own house, making the whole house look messy!”

Shao Yanru is good at pretending, and Shao Wanru is even better at it.

When she asked Qu Le to come over, she took out all the things that should be arranged early. There was also a set of teacups on the table that looked pretty good, but when she actually picked up the teacups, the lids were missing.

What Mrs. Xingguo sent over was actually not that bad. As soon as Shao Wanru moved in, she brought a few maids to destroy it, and deliberately made it like this. She just moved in with this look. If anyone saw it, She must have known that Duke Xingguo's palace had treated her poorly.

If she waits until she really shows her filial piety, and is very busy during the New Year and festivals, and talks about these things when she has free time, others will only say that she broke the decorations carefully prepared for her by Mrs. Xingguo, not that she He said that when he first moved in, Xingguo Gongfu deliberately sent some unreliable household items.

This is to make it inconvenient for her to publicize this kind of thing when Qing Xiu is observing filial piety.

She just did the opposite!

Now that she has returned to Duke Xingguo's Palace, she has no intention of swallowing her anger. Three years is enough time for her to understand many of the past of Duke Xingguo's Palace, and to figure out how to deal with Duke Xingguo's Palace next.

Even if her grandmother is unkind and her second wife is hypocritical and vicious, she will not retreat. In the last life, she had no way to retreat and was forced to die. If she retreats in this life, she will be slowly and slowly forced into a desperate situation step by step in the end, just like In the previous life, blood stained the stone steps.

In this life, with three years of buffer time, she no longer had to retreat step by step when facing the Xingguo Duke's mansion.

The matter of the house is just the first step...

"I have to change a few things first. I'm going to tell my mother now!" Shao Yanru couldn't stand still. She felt that every word of Shao Wanru's words was heart-breaking, almost directed at her mother.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the annoyance in his heart, and turned around to leave without waiting for Shao Wanru to say anything else!

Shao Jie'er looked at Shao Yanru who had left, and then at Shao Wanru, with a hint of sarcasm finally showing on her face, "You want such a broken thing, the fifth sister is really hungry, or should I say that all the things in your Qin Mansion used to be... It’s so bad, can something like this be considered a good thing?”

"The things in Qin Mansion are very good. Aren't the things in Duke Xingguo's Mansion all like this? I thought all the masters in Duke Xingguo's Mansion use this." Shao Wanru said coldly.

People like Shao Jie'er are born to be mean to people who are inferior to them. They always try to step on people who are inferior to them. This is always the case, and for those who are one level above them, He is also blindly fawning and trying to please, which is really hard to make people like him.

"Ignorance!" Shao Jie'er's face turned red after being ridiculed by Shao Wanru. After saying this angrily, she turned around and walked away.

Shao Wanru didn't speak this time, just looked at Shao Jie'er's leaving back with a smile, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

"Miss, will Madam change the furniture for us?" Qu Le stood up from behind her, sweating profusely. Just now, in order to grab time to decorate, she ran over, and then quickly took care of the furniture inside. Only then did I have time to breathe.

"Yes!" Shao Wanru smiled slightly and said with a cold expression.

The ornaments in this room were intended by Duke Xingguo. It seemed that even Shao Yanru didn't know, so she followed him here.

Mrs. Xingguo was disgusted with herself. The Tai Furen and Shao Yanru wanted to trick her into the palace. There seemed to be no relationship between the two. That's why Shao Yanru fell into the trap and followed her to have a look. Since she saw it , also said that she would help him. If she didn't help him, if he told Concubine Shu tomorrow, she would be the one who was embarrassed!

Shao Yanru has always cherished her own reputation, so how could she let herself talk about this matter? She would definitely find a way to get something better for herself. She couldn't let herself go out and say that Duke Xingguo had treated her badly, and she couldn't let her The best way to talk nonsense is to shut up.

Never tell such scandalous things.

The timing of this delivery is really good!

Of course, if Shao Yanru doesn't react, Shao Wanru is not afraid. Even if this matter has something to do with Shao Yanru, he can still talk about it with Shao Yanru in the future!

"Will you give us some good ones?" Qu Le had new questions and asked uncertainly.

"Of course I will. I will ask Qing'er to go to her grandmother later and ask her to sort out the dowry list for her mother's marriage to Duke Xingguo." Shao Wanru said with a hint.

"Miss is going to ask Mrs. Xingguo for the princess's dowry?" Qu Le was stunned for a moment and said uneasily. It is not a good thing to ask an elder for a dowry. Besides, there is also Young Master Hao. With Young Master Hao here, Miss He is not qualified to ask for the princess's dowry from the Xingguo Duke's Mansion.

"I'm not going to ask for it!" Shao Wanru shook her head. It is indeed unreasonable for her to ask for the dowry. Both she and Shao Yuanhao are the heirs of the Duke of Xingguo. Especially since Shao Yuanhao is still asking for the crown prince, it is even more important at this time. You can't do this kind of thing of asking for your mother's dowry.

But not asking for it does not mean that it is not counted. You must know which ones belong to you and Hao'er, and you must not let Xingguo Duke's government mess with you.

If she had the chance, she would definitely ask for her mother's dowry, but according to her estimation, I am afraid that a large part of this dowry has already fallen into the hands of Mrs. Xingguo.

And she couldn't make trouble right now. She slowly checked and found out that since Mrs. Xingguo had obtained her mother's things, she would always take out some. Since her hands were greedy, she had to be careful whether she could retract them when she stretched them out. On the dowry list, you will definitely find something fishy first.

"Miss, do you want to go into the palace to see Concubine Shu?" Aunt Zheng appeared at the door, seemingly out of breath as she came in a hurry.

"It was said that Concubine Shu had given something to Duke Xingguo's mansion, and she also wanted to see me, so she asked me to follow a group of sisters to the palace to see Concubine Shu as a gift!"

Shao Wanru said nonchalantly, turned around and walked towards the chair in the middle, sitting on the cushion above.

To be honest, the cushion looks a little worn, and there is a big red patch sewn on it, but overall it is still very comfortable.

After sitting down, he looked at Aunt Zheng who was hesitant to speak, and asked softly, "Does Aunt Zheng feel that something is wrong?"

Aunt Zheng came in with a frown on her face. She thought about it and finally said, "Concubine Shu doesn't like Prince Chen!"

"Does Concubine Shu have anything to do with Prince Chen?" Shao Wanru glanced sideways at Aunt Zheng, her eyes darkening. She didn't remember that Concubine Shu had anything to do with Chu Liuchen.

One is the legitimate son of the late emperor, and the other is the concubine of the current emperor, and she is also a childless concubine. From this point of view, the two people rarely even meet, and there is no possibility of any grudge. But look at Aunt Zheng. The look showed that there was some grudge between the two people.

Shao Wanru attached great importance to what Aunt Zheng said!

"Concubine Shu... doesn't like His Highness King Chen. It can even be said... that she hates His Highness King Chen!" Although Aunt Zheng was a little hesitant, she finally said it. She just heard that Shao Wanru was going to the palace tomorrow. Seeing Concubine Shu, her heart aroused.

Shao Wanru saved King Chen, which would inevitably arouse the disgust of Concubine Shu. At this time, he actually rewarded him and even asked to see Shao Wanru. It didn't look like he had good intentions. Aunt Zheng was very worried.

"Mammy, do you think Concubine Shu will harm me?" After thinking for a while, Shao Wanru understood Aunt Zheng's worries, and her eyes turned a little more serious. Originally, Concubine Shu came suddenly, and she had never heard of it before. It has been said that Concubine Shu has contacts with Duke Xingguo. Could it be that this time she really came for her.

"It's possible, but... not necessarily!" Aunt Zheng nodded seriously, then shook her head. She was really worried that something would happen to Shao Wanru in the palace!

"Don't worry, mama, I'll be fine!" There was a hint of darkness in the water eyes. Concubine Shu reached out her hand at this time. Naturally, she had a deep meaning, but she shouldn't frame herself right away. It seems that she needs to be more careful tomorrow. Coping is.

Stuck at this moment, this concubine Shu is coming with bad intentions!
