The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 139 Embroidered Shoes

"Yes, servant girl is going now." Xuemei said and hurried to leave.

She stopped again: "Come back, what's the rush, you can go out and help me with something later."

After speaking, he went to take out the embroidered shoe drawing that he had drawn earlier, then handed it to Xuemei, and said, "Go outside and ask where this shoe shape comes from."

Anyway, it doesn't look like a common style in the capital.

Xuemei took a look at it, nodded, and said very seriously: "Okay, I will ask the servant after I notify the butler."

……

at the same time.

———The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Linfu.

Gui Tang Zhai.

Shen's feet were grounded, and she was sitting in the room blankly at this moment, with a sad face that couldn't be concealed no matter what, she seemed to be several years older than before.

At this moment, Mother Chen lifted the veil of the room and walked in, with an excited expression on her face: "Ma'am, the eldest girl is here."

Afterwards, Lin Qinghua was helped in and walked in. The mother and daughter were extremely excited when they met.

Shen quickly stood up to meet her, and grabbed Lin Qinghua's hand with tears in her eyes: "My son."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but hugged Lin Qinghua and began to cry.

Lin Qinghua had a sore nose, and quickly comforted her: "My daughter came back after my mother suffered. It's because my daughter is unfilial."

At this moment, Mrs. Shen hurriedly wiped her tears, and cried to her daughter, "I'm fine as a mother. I pity your younger brother. He was sent to Shoukang Hall by your cruel father. The old lady is old. How do you take good care of him?"

Lin Qinghua wiped away her tears and said, "Mother, let's sit down and talk."

After sitting down, Lin Qinghua didn't beat around the bush and said straight to the point: "Mom, I heard from Mother Chen that you were punished by your father because you gave your cousin a Jinshi status?"

She also had some doubts, because she felt that it was impossible for her mother to do such a thing.

This matter is not a trivial matter, and if it is not done well, it will be a serious crime of beheading.

Shen turned her head away, closed her eyes and nodded.

This is an admission.

Lin Qinghua was at a loss for words for a while, and shook her head angrily, "Mother! You are so confused."

"He is your uncle's own son, and also your uncle's only son. He has been spoiled since he was a child. If I don't help him, his life will be over." Shen said.

This sophistry tone did not seem to realize that he was wrong, but instead had a lot of resentment.

Then he continued: "You don't know that your aunt is in poor health, and Ye Ting is the son of the Shen family. If, if there is no future, will the Shen family be sold to those lowly sons in the future?"

These words made Lin Qinghua speechless for a while, the state owns the country's laws, and the family has family rules. She doesn't know what is going on with her mother now, she is getting more and more confused as she gets older.

Besides, her cousin is a dandy who only knows how to spend time and drink, how can a person who is ignorant and incompetent enter the Imperial Academy?
After sighing, she said seriously: "Mother, my grandfather is only a seventh-rank county magistrate. If you arrange an errand for your cousin in a small county, no one will know if you want to come to Beijing. Why do you want to pass the imperial examination?" Arrangement among the sons? Mother, do you know that this is a crime of deceiving the emperor and will be beheaded."

"What?" Shen was stunned for a moment, then her face became frightened, and she hurriedly grabbed Lin Qinghua's hand.

Weeping and begging: "Hua'er, you are now a princess, you can save your family, your brother is still young, if you end up the son of a criminal minister, your future will be ruined."
