However, since he had helped Mistress this ti, he would help again the next ti.

It was not impossible for Mistress to win him over.

Sang’er smiled and didn’t compel Song Rui.

“Young Master, you have misunderstood. Mistress only wants to thank you.

“Moreover, Mistress is the mistress of the household in the Pri Minister’s residence and is a family mber of the Master’s family. Isn’t it the sa whether you work for the Master or the Mistress?”

Song Rui looked at Sang’er and saw her smiling brightly.

In response, he also smiled and nodded.

“Miss Sang’er is right.”

Sang’er gave Song Rui a look that implied, “If you get my drift.” She chatted with Song Rui for a while longer before leaving.

On the way back, Sang’er was in high spirits.

When she thought about how Song Rui smiled at her, she felt as if she had tasted honey inwardly.

anwhile, Song Rui’s expression clouded over soon after Sang’er turned around and walked barely a few steps.

Then, he turned around, closed the door, and went back to his room.

A re servant girl actually had such outrageous thoughts toward him. It really made him feel nauseous.

Sigh! His wife was still the best.

Unfortunately, it was too late now. Even if he went to their secret courtyard house, he wouldn’t be able to see his wife tonight.

Song Rui took off his clothes and lay on the bed. As a strong sense of longing for his wife filled his mind, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In his dream, he had returned to Mountain Spring Town. He was practicing calligraphy and painting with his wife, as happy and carefree as free spirits.

The next day, Song Rui followed Minister Shen’s instructions and arranged for people to publicize the news that Shen Rong was on the verge of death.

Although he missed Qin Xiaoyao very much, Song Rui controlled himself.

He was thinking he would send a ssage to his wife as soon as the matter was over.

After a busy day, in the evening, news of Shen Rong’s serious illness spread out in the capital.

According to the news, the Young Miss of the Pri Minister’s residence had not even gone to Fahua Buddhist Temple to offer incense.

The news about her having an affair with a scholar and even dying for love were all fake.

The real situation was that Young Miss Shen had contracted a serious illness and had been recuperating in the residence.

The Pri Minister had even invited the imperial physician to treat her.

Unfortunately, her condition could not be treated. Miss Shen’s current condition was still very bad.

When Minister Shen heard the news reported by the servant, he had a satisfied look on his face.

The person he had taken a fancy to certainly lived up to his expectations. Song Rui was indeed quite capable.

After dismissing the servants, Minister Shen ordered soone to look for Song Rui.

Before long, Song Rui arrived at the study.

After entering the room, Song Rui bowed respectfully to Minister Shen.

“My lord!”

Minister Shen raised his head to look at Song Rui. “You may rise,” he said.

Song Rui straightened up upon receiving the word.

Minister Shen sized up Song Rui. While he was satisfied with Song Rui, he couldn’t help but feel regretful.

It was such a pity. He really wanted Song Rui to be his son-in-law. He even wanted to groom him to take over his position as Pri Minister.

It was all that unfilial daughter’s fault. She had done such a shaful thing and even dared to jump off the cliff to die for love.

Now, that unfilial daughter was no longer around. He could only give up on the marriage.

He really felt that it was a pity…

“My lord…” Song Rui gave Minister Shen a reminder when he saw the older man staring at him in a daze.

Minister Shen quickly ca back to his senses and withdrew his gaze from Song Rui.

“Our Shen residence has let you down with regard to the matter of that unfilial daughter.

“When this matter is over, I will make it up to you,” he said.

Song Rui quickly bowed to Minister Shen.

“My lord, your words are too harsh. I am also responsible for the Young Miss’s matter. If it wasn’t for the fact that I didn’t understand Young Miss’ intentions, Young Miss wouldn’t have…”

“Hmph!” Minister Shen snorted scornfully and interrupted Song Rui.

When he saw Song Rui looking at him, his expression softened a little.

“What did it have to do with other people when she committed sothing so disgraceful?

“It’s good that she’s dead now. So now she can’t bring disgrace to and the Shen family!”

Song Rui wanted to say sothing but hesitated. In the end, he didn’t say anything.

When Minister Shen saw this, he felt a little better.

He thought to himself, “This kid did have so feelings toward my rebellious daughter. What a pity…”

Suddenly, he thought of sothing and looked at Song Rui again.

“Other than that unfilial daughter, 1 have another adopted daughter…”

That was right. Although he only had one wife in the Pri Minister’s residence, he had other won outside.

Naturally, he had other children.

Not only did he have an illegitimate daughter, but he also had an illegitimate son.

He had already arranged for the illegitimate son to be placed under the care of a branch family and had already paved the way for him.

As for his illegitimate daughter, he had no other arrangents for her for the ti being.

In the past, he did not bring his daughter into the residence because of the Mistress and the Jia family.

However, now, with the death of that unfilial daughter, his wife would definitely not let matters rest.

Anyway, he was going to fall out with her, so this ti, he might as well make it a complete fallout.

It would also be a tily reminder to the Jia family and the Empress that the current Shen Hongyu was no longer the scholar that they could easily manipulate.

Song Rui was shocked.

He raised his head and looked at Minister Shen.

Adopted daughter? What adopted daughter? He hadn’t found out anything about this before.

It was not easy for him to arrange for Shen Rong to leave. He didn’t want a Shen Rong Number Two to co here!

“Thank you for your l
