The sky is falling! Yao Fen felt her eyes go dark.
How could Chen Laosan have such merits! Chen Laosan was clearly picking up a bargain! Chen Laosan was just a concubine's son, just an insignificant branch of their Chen family. Why could he inherit the title?
This blow brought her to the brink of collapse, which was more painful than death.
Death is not scary, what is scary is that the person she once looked down upon is living a better life.
Why! Why!
As if knowing her question, Cen Yuan answered, "Back in Yucheng, I suggested that you build houses in Yucheng to help the court. But you refused and insisted on coming to the capital to die. Uncle Chen listened to me and chose to build the city in Yucheng. Now that the emperor has seen Uncle Chen's contribution, isn't it normal for him to give him a title?"
Where there is punishment, there will naturally be reward.
Upon hearing this, Yao Fen's eyes blurred, her head slammed against the railing, and she collapsed to the ground, muttering, "Yucheng, Yucheng, we should have stayed in Yucheng too."
Chen Jikang suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Cen Yuan. "Yuan'er, I was wrong, I was wrong. Please save me! I don't want to die. I can do more for Beiyi. I can be your slave. Please save me! You have the ability, you have a way to save me, right?"
Yao Fen hurriedly pulled her two daughters and kowtowed together.
Chen Mengjiao was already in a daze, just staring at Cen Yuan blankly, then gave him a weird smile, "You are paralyzed, I will take care of you, okay?"
Chen Mengran said nothing, and was forced to kowtow by her mother. Then she stood up and kowtowed again.
But she knew that her elder brother was hard-hearted and would not help the Chen family anymore.
The fact was just as she expected. Cen Yuan said nothing more and went out with Ma Chuyi.
From beginning to end, Cen Yuan never looked at Chen Mengjiao and her sister. The moment he turned around, he heard ghostly cries and screams coming from behind him.
In the young master's mansion.
As soon as Tang Chujun stepped into the room, he heard Shi Wanzhen making unreasonable demands to Shi Anxia, "Xia'er, why don't we take Shi'er and Ying'er into Yunqi Academy? Maybe they will become better after entering the academy?"
Tang Chujun looked disgusted, "Become better! What are you thinking about?"
When Shi Wanzhen saw her former sister-in-law coming, she felt a surge of warmth in her heart, and her eyes suddenly turned red, "Sister-in-law!"
"Move forward!" Tang Chujun was very impatient. "I've reminded you hundreds of times, but you still can't change. Are you trying to annoy me to death?"
Shi Wanzhen didn't dare to offend her former sister-in-law, so she could only swallow her anger and said, "Sister Tang..."
Tang Chujun bent down and tucked the quilt for his daughter, "Let's go out and talk. Don't disturb my Xia'er's sleep."
Shi Wanzhen then asked in surprise, "Why is Xia'er sleeping so soundly? Is there something wrong?"
"What's the problem? It's better to sleep soundly than not sleep at all." As soon as Tang Chujun saw the dark circles under her eyes, he knew that she probably hadn't had a good sleep for a long time.
As expected, Shi Wanzhen sighed deeply, "Sister is right, it is better to sleep soundly than to sleep at all."
Tang Chujun thought that everyone has their own worries. But she would not let Shi Wanzhen know the truth, so she changed the subject, "It's okay if you want your children to enter Yunqi Academy. As long as they pass the entrance exam, they can go there."
Shi Wanzhen was so shocked that she felt like an egg was stuffed in her mouth. "Is there still a threshold test?"
She came here today specifically for this matter, thinking it would just be a matter of a few words, but she had no idea that there would be a threshold test involved.
"Of course." Tang Chujun said, "If you can't pass the threshold, you can't enter Yunqi Academy."
Shi Wanzhen was in a dilemma. "Can't you make an exception?"
