The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Chapter 309: Unpredictable

"I don't have any worries. I'm just thinking about what happened tonight." Shen Qionghua said lightly.

"What happened tonight? Are you talking about Miss Zhou and Miss Wu?" Shaoyao asked.

Shen Qionghua nodded slowly.

Shaoyao frowned, "Miss, is there something wrong?"

"No." Shen Qionghua shook her head. "I just lament the unpredictable nature of life. Zhou Lingfu and Wu ended up like this."

In her previous life, Zhou Lingfu did not enter Prince An's mansion, but only married a minor official as his wife.

Although her arrogance and domineering behavior led to a bad relationship between her and her husband, but with the support of the Yongning Marquisate, no one dared to upset her even if she acted arrogantly in her husband's family, and she lived a very comfortable life.

Although Wu caused a scene in the mansion because Zhou Lingfu did not marry into a high-ranking family, she eventually settled down. She kept persuading Zhou Lingfu to live a good life and manage the relationship well, and asked Zhou Lingfu to urge her husband to make progress.

One choice led to a different outcome. Shen Qionghua couldn't help but feel emotional when she saw it.

Shaoyao didn't know that Shen Qionghua was a person who had lived a second life, and she just thought that Shen Qionghua was sighing for the experiences of these two people.

She comforted her, "Young lady, don't worry about it. When you were staying at the Yongning Marquis's mansion before, Zhou Lingfu and Wu took every opportunity to make things difficult for you. It's their own choice that you've ended up like this."

"Young lady, not only did you not add insult to injury, but you also gave them a chance to live. This is already a sign of your kindness. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Wu's body would have been cold and Zhou Lingfu would have died."

Shaoyao was speaking the truth. After all, it was Zhou Lingfu who was willing to jump into the trap set up against Prince An, and no one forced her.

If you are greedy, you must bear the consequences of your greed.

Shen Qionghua chuckled and shook her head, saying, "I don't mind. I just feel that after all this, Zhou Lingfu and Wu have changed a lot. If it were before, she wouldn't have said those words of begging for mercy to me."

When she heard those words, she felt very confused.

Shaoyao said, "Everyone says a mother is strong. Mrs. Wu only has Zhou Lingfu as her daughter. She thought the young lady wanted to hurt Zhou Lingfu, so she would naturally lower her posture and beg the young lady with soft words."

"Yes, a mother can do anything for the health of her children," Shen Qionghua said with emotion.

His gaze fell on the moon hanging high outside the window, and he murmured, "I don't know..."

I don’t know if in the previous life, after my mother knew Lin’s true identity before she died, she was like Wu today.

Even though she was covered in wounds, she still begged, begged Lin and Zhou Lingyi to let her and Ayi go.

Yes, there were some, but neither Lin nor Zhou Lingyi was soft-hearted. They both wanted to take over the Shen family's property as soon as possible.

Or maybe...A Niang didn't even have the chance to beg for mercy...

"Miss, what did you say?" Shaoyao tilted her ear and didn't hear clearly.

Shen Qionghua suddenly came back to her senses and said, "Nothing, it's almost dawn, you should go to sleep, I want to sleep too."

Shaoyao nodded, "I will help the young lady onto the bed."

Shaoyao untied Shen Qionghua's cloak and put it on the hanger. She helped Shen Qionghua onto the bed, tucked in the corners of the quilt for her, and was about to get up and leave when she was suddenly stopped by Shen Qionghua.

"Peony."

Shaoyao turned around and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

"I want to go to A Niang's courtyard tomorrow and have breakfast with her." Shen Qionghua said.

"Okay, then I'll ask them to bring breakfast directly to Madam's courtyard." Shaoyao said.

When Shen Qionghua heard this, her eyebrows curved and she closed her eyes.

Shaoyao gathered the bed curtains, tiptoed back to her own small couch, covered herself with the quilt, and fell asleep.

-

Early the next morning.

When Shen Qionghua opened her eyes, it was already bright daylight.

"Peony, what time is it?" Shen Qionghua asked, with a hint of laziness in her voice.

Shaoyao heard the noise, lifted the bed curtain, and said, "Miss, it's already four quarters past noon."

"What!" Shen Qionghua immediately stood up and washed and dressed with the help of Shaoyao.

Shaoyao said as she was doing what she was doing, "Miss, don't worry. I sent someone to tell Madam early this morning that she wanted to have dinner with you this morning."

"Madam said she would wait for Miss."

Shen Qionghua heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then said, "We have to hurry up, so as not to keep my mother waiting for me."

In just a cup of tea, Shen Qionghua had finished packing.

Because she was in a hurry and was at home, she didn't dress up too much, not even putting on makeup. She simply tied up her long black hair with a jade hairpin and hurried to Lin Wanru's yard with Shaoyao.

As soon as I entered the door, I was met with Shen Yi's childish round face.

Shen Yi was sitting upright on the chair. When he saw Shen Qionghua, he immediately laughed and said, "Sister, why are you still sleeping in at such a big age? I got up at dawn."

Shen Qionghua knocked his forehead in annoyance, then said to Lin Wanru a little embarrassedly: "It's Qionghua, isn't it? I slept late and made my mother wait for a long time."

Lin Wanru smiled as she watched the siblings playing around. Hearing this, she said gently, "It's okay. You have to take charge of all the big and small matters of the Shen family. It's good to sleep a little late occasionally to rest your mind."

"When Ah Yi heard that you were going to have breakfast with me, he insisted on joining us. Now that you're here, let's start eating."

Lin Wanru stood up, Shen Qionghua held her left hand, Shen Yi held her right hand, and the three of them moved to the dining table together.

The servants immediately brought the meal.

While eating, Shen Qionghua looked up and saw Shen Yi across from her looking at her, his eyes rolling around, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Ayi, what's wrong?" Shen Qionghua asked.

Shen Yi glanced at Lin Wanru hesitantly before speaking, "Sister, I heard from people outside that Prince Rui won a battle and recaptured three cities. Is that true?"
