Chapter 145 She Doesn’t Forgive Us

After returning to Yong State, he continued to resume the early dynasty.

Ji Yucang became busy again. All the big and small things in the court had to pass through his hands, and the prime ministers on the left and right also had some things backlogged in their hands that needed to be stated to him.

Shen Ning felt at ease all of a sudden.

She would go to the military camp in the suburbs to check on the Feifeng Army's training, and she would show them the technique of cloud-piercing arrows on the school grounds. It was not to show off, but after many days, Shen Ning and the former Princess Zhaohua were no longer the same person.

They didn't recognize her and thought she was Nan Zhao's murderer.

Shen Ning hopes to use this familiar cloud-penetrating arrow to regain their recognition of Princess Zhaohua and slowly accept her existence.

At the end of July, Mrs. Shen sent a post to Shen Ning, asking sincerely to see her, but Shen Ning ignored it.

In early August, Shen Shi'an personally visited the Regent's Mansion to ask for a meeting with Shen Ning.

Shen Ning met him, but she met him as the regent princess. She saw Shen Shi'an kneeling and kowtowing respectfully, and apologized humbly: "On behalf of my grandmother, father, mother, sister and myself, I solemnly apologize to the princess. ”

"Apologise?" Shen Ning smiled faintly, "Apologise for what?"

"In the past, it was us who were narrow-minded, ignored family ties, and selfishly cut off the blood relationship with you. When you were in the most difficult time, we, as relatives, should stand behind you without hesitation, support you, and protect you, instead of letting an irrelevant person An important person comes to hurt you... Shen Ning, I'm sorry, can you forgive us? "

Shen Ning took a sip of tea and said with an indifferent expression: "If you can resurrect the dead, I can forgive you."

Shen Ning was not killed by people from Zhen Guogong's Mansion. She died in the hands of Qin Yanshu. But if Shen Ning had a spirit and lingered in Guogong's Mansion for seven days after her death, then she could clearly see her family's feelings towards her. her attitude.

The people of the Zhenguo Palace failed to protect their daughter. This was a major and irreparable mistake.

After her accident, they cursed, belittled and reprimanded her, and forced her to marry Qin Yanshu as their concubine. Wouldn't Shen Ning's soul be sad to hear this? Won't you despair?

With these established facts, no one is qualified to talk about forgiveness.

Even after so long, they didn't even know that their daughter's shell had changed into a soul. What qualifications did such a family have to talk about forgiveness?

"Princess." Shen Shi'an raised his head with a pleading look on his face, "Grandma has been repenting these days. She eats fast and recites Buddha's name every day. She only hopes that the princess can recite it because of her old age——"

"Shen Shi'an, please go back." Shen Ning said indifferently, "If you are worried about my revenge on the Duke of Zhen, then there is no need. I won't. Duke Zhen has his own destiny and will perish when it is time to perish. You will continue to linger when you shouldn't perish, but the situation is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. Your repentance is not sincere, but only out of fear of the unknown fate, fear of power, and guilt for the evil things you have done... "

"No!" Shen Shi'an said excitedly, "Grandma really regrets it! But Princess, you...you should understand that grandma has always been a person who values ​​honor and integrity above all else. She is strict with herself and with her family. The requirements are more stringent, and she cannot tolerate the family being stained, so after learning about you, she couldn't accept it for a while. Please forgive her, Princess, just treat it like I am begging you! "

Shen Ning looked at him coldly: "I will not retaliate against Duke Zhen Guo, but if you insist on getting in front of me, I can't guarantee whether the Shen family will be ransacked for some crimes and end up like the uncle Guo's house. ”

Shen Shi'an's expression changed, and there was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he retreated and said, "Then...can you ask the regent to release Yan'er? Yan'er is weak and cannot bear the pain of long-term confinement..."

"She is not weak at all when she plots against people." Shen Ning stood up and said coldly, "Someone, drive Shen Shi'an out."

Shen Shi'an looked stiff and embarrassed. He stood up, took a deep look at Shen Ning, and turned to leave.

Mrs. Shen paced anxiously in the front yard. When she saw her son coming back, she quickly stepped forward and asked, "Shi An, how are you? Has Shen Ning forgiven us? Can Yan'er be released? What did she say..."

"She doesn't forgive us." Shen Shi'an shook his head.

Mrs. Shen's face turned pale and she said sadly: "She still holds grudges against us?"

Shen Shi'an was silent for a moment, "I don't think she holds a grudge, but she just has nothing to do with us anymore. She has no love or hatred, like a stranger——"

"Stranger? What kind of stranger?" Mrs. Shen walked out on crutches, her face livid and angry, "Who gave her life? Whose blood is she bleeding from? She said a stranger is a stranger? She has forgotten her ancestors. s things!"

"Mother." Mrs. Shen quickly dissuaded her, "Shen Ning is the regent princess now. You can't talk about her like that anymore."

"What?" Mrs. Shen looked at her coldly, "You have raised such a shameless and ungrateful daughter and you are not allowed to tell me?"

"Grandma, Shen Ning is the regent now!" Shen Shi'an reminded coldly, "The regent obeys her, and the Yong army is in their hands. As long as Shen Ning says a word, the Zhenguo palace can be razed to the ground in an instant! Are you unable to see clearly the situation in front of you, or do you not understand the importance of Shen Ning in the regent's heart?"

Mrs. Shen was angry: "Are you lecturing me?"

"Father went to court today, and all the ministers in the court were admonishing the regent to proclaim himself emperor." Shen Shi'an looked at her coldly, "If grandma wants to wipe out the entire government, she can continue to curse. Let's see if these words can reach people." It’s within earshot of the Prince Regent!”

Mrs. Shen was about to raise her cane to hit him, but she seemed to lose her temper when she heard this, and her face turned pale.

Was she not afraid?

No, she was obviously afraid.

She just couldn't lose face as a grandmother. She raised her son and made the Shen family prosperous. Not to mention Shen Ning, a granddaughter, even her son who had become a Duke had to obey her.

Why was Shen Ning an exception?

She just... just couldn't accept her granddaughter's disrespect to her.

She was the one who made the mistake when she lost her innocence. Not only did she not repent, but she also made a scene at home and even hurt people.

Now that she has become a powerful regent princess, shouldn't she take the opportunity to repair her relationship with her family? Did she think that she didn't need her family to help her after becoming a queen? Did she think it was easy to be a queen without the support of her family?

She thought Shen Ning would be willing to turn back. As long as she turned back, she could let the Duke's Mansion welcome her back. From then on, the family would be fine. She could do whatever she wanted, and no one would humiliate her, scold her, or scold her.

But she was so ungrateful that even her own brother couldn't invite her.

Is she so arrogant?

She forgot her ancestors' stupid things after becoming the regent princess.

Old Madam Shen leaned on a cane, as if she had aged a dozen years in an instant. At this moment, she finally realized that Shen Ning and the Duke's Mansion had really broken up.

The future fate of the Duke's Mansion was completely in the hands of Shen Ning.

If Shen Ning was magnanimous, the Duke's Mansion could live longer. If she was in a bad mood one day and thought of the scenes that made her unhappy, she might make the Duke's Mansion disappear with just one word.

Old Madam Shen was afraid of this uncertainty.

The uneasiness that the fate of the whole family was in the hands of Shen Ning made her feel like sitting on pins and needles, and she couldn't sleep well at night.

Madam Shen and Shen Shian watched her leave without saying a word, their faces pale and ugly.

"Are you sure it's irreversible?"

Shen Shi'an hummed, his face silent: "It should be irreversible."

Mrs. Shen's face was pale: "Then you can't enter the government or join the army in the future?"

In other words, even if Shen Ning raised his hand and forgot the previous unhappiness, the Zhenguogong Mansion might not be able to support the door in the future, and there would be no way to continue the glory and prominence of the Zhenguogong family.

Shen Shi'an was stunned: "I don't know."

Perhaps he never thought that the cause he planted at the beginning would result in an unexpected result today.

If he knew that Shen Ning would be like this...but who could have thought of it?

Women pay attention to the three obediences and four virtues, and losing innocence is more serious than losing life.

Qin Yanshu does not despise her and wants to take her as a concubine. It is a very normal thing for anyone. If it were another family, it would be handled in the same way.

Who would have thought that Shen Ning would die unyielding?

Who would have thought that after her innocence was destroyed, she could still marry the Regent?

Who could have thought that the regent had such deep feelings for her?

If the regent really wanted to become emperor, then Shen Ning would be the queen, and a queen who could make the emperor obey her.

Her words could completely determine the fate of a person or even a family.
