Marry a traitor

Chapter 2 Making Contributions

Shen Yu's merciless kick broke three of the boy's ribs, and he almost fainted from the pain.

"Check again."

After careful inspection, the guards confirmed that hundreds of bags of food and grass were missing and had been fraudulently used.

Shen Yu frowned, looking gloomy and unhappy.

"Check, take him down to find out the truth. All the food and grass must be found within three days."

"Yes."

Wang Han's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and he was filled with panic and joy.

Thanks to Wan'er's reminder, if he hadn't let them go after random checks, I'm afraid the Wang family would be the next one to be executed.

Shen Yu ordered a thorough investigation, but Wang Han escaped a bit today, and almost got Shen Yu in trouble because of this incident.

His daughter didn't like Shen Yu in the first place. If she caused him to lose his official position again, Wang Han felt that he would definitely feel guilty.

Shen Yu is the second son of the Shen family. His ancestors, like the Wang family today, were from a family of generals who led troops in wars. The grandfathers of the two families were very good friends and insisted on giving their descendants babies. When Wang Han was young, he fell in love with Wang Wan's mother. , life and death did not agree with the marriage with the Shen family's baby, so he pushed the matter of the baby's marriage to his own daughter, and promised Wang Wan to marry the Shen family.

Later, the Shen family was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason by the ministers of the court, and was ordered to be executed by the late emperor. The Shen family was brutally wiped out. When Shen Yu was a few years old, he disappeared at the border fortress and escaped.

It was not until the new emperor came to power that Shen Yu grew up day by day and collected a lot of evidence of the Shen family's innocence. After verification, the truth came to light and the Shen family was able to clear up the injustice.

The emperor also felt ashamed of the Shen family and sealed the position of Prime Minister Shen Yu to make up for the royal fault.

Wang Han felt very guilty every time he saw Shen Yu. Although the Shen family suffered major changes, he never looked down on him because Shen Yu was the only one left in the Shen family, and he never thought about breaking off the baby marriage with the Shen family.

Every time he saw Shen Yu, he liked her more and more.

What a good child, how could Wang Wan, a blind man, like that brat Xie Yan?

After the food and grass matter was settled, Shen Yu and Wang Han walked together in perfect agreement. While walking, Wang Han was thinking about how to propose to Shen Yu about breaking off the engagement. After all, Wan'er liked Xie Yan, and he had been making trouble recently. Marrying Xie Yan means seeking death if you don't marry.

Of course, her daughter's life is more important than anything else. Since Wan'er is not willing to marry into the Shen family, then let Wan'er's children marry Shen Yu's children from now on.

Unknowingly, the two of them arrived at the gate of Wang's mansion.

"Master Wang, thank you for your hard work today."

"The Prime Minister is staying here. I would like to invite you to go to your residence to have a talk."

Shen Yu did have something to discuss with Wang Han, so he followed Wang Han into the mansion.

"Prime Minister, please sit down."

After the two of them sat down, Shen Yu held a moonlight folding fan in his hand and took a sip of Yuqian Longjing with a clear and elegant look, his eyes clear.

"Master Wang, you have worked hard. If you hadn't been careful, I would have made a big mistake."

Wang Han chuckled and stretched out his hand to stroke his beard: "Master Shen, thank you for being able to successfully detect the grain fraud this time, Wang Wan. If she hadn't had a dream, I wouldn't have known that this happened. event."

Wang Wan?

Shen Yu frowned. His impression of Wang Wan was still based on gossip in the public. This woman blatantly dared to cuckold him before they even got married.

Seeing the confusion on Shen Yu's eyebrows, Wang Han continued: "Wan'er is feeling unwell today and often has nightmares. Yesterday, he pulled the official to tell him that he dreamed about food and grass, so the official remembered to check carefully."

Shen Yu didn't have a good impression of Wang Wan, but when he heard Wang Han say this, he became interested.

"Your love actually has such magical powers,"

"I think father and daughter are connected."

Wang Han and Shen Yu were talking in the front hall, and Lu Yao ran back to the backyard with wind on his feet.

"How is it? Have the people sent to inquire come back?" Wang Wan asked hurriedly.

"I'm back, and I brought Master Shen with me." Why did Shen Yu come?

Wang Wan thought about it and finally remembered that his father should have approached Shen Yu to discuss breaking off the engagement.

Wang Wan, who had been preparing to sleep, now felt as if his heart was on fire. Although Shen Yu had a bad reputation, she would never allow her to break off the engagement.

"Master Shen, my son is blind and not worthy of being your wife, I think."

"I've met the Prime Minister." Wang Wanfu said, just in time to interrupt Wang Han's next words.

Wang Wan appeared at the door, looking much more stable than before. She was wrapped in a plain long skirt, which made her already thin body look even colder and nobler. Even though she had been soaked in the rain for several days and was seriously affected by the wind and cold, she was still hiding. He can't help but be full of pride and character.

Shen Yu saw that it was Wang Wan who had arrived, and his impartial eyes met the girl's cold eyes.

There was a hint of ambiguity in the man's eyes. I remember that the last time we met, Wang Wan was not like this. At that time, Wang Wan was anxious to go out to see his sweetheart. He was absent-minded and very mean to him. Today, he was uncharacteristically. It was true. Astonishing.

The man raised the corners of his mouth, shook his head and chuckled.

If Wang Wan hadn't interrupted just now, Mr. Wang would have already said that he wanted to break off the engagement, but this Wang Wan just appeared at this time.

Do you want to say it yourself to break off the engagement?
  Shen Yu just looked at Wang Wan without paying attention to him, and continued to face Wang Han: "Master Wang, what did you want to say just now?"

Since Wan'er was here, Wang Han opened his mouth and planned to propose breaking off the engagement. As soon as he said a word, Wang Wan immediately stepped forward and handed his father a glass of water.

"Father, you must be thirsty. Drink some water to moisten your throat."

How could Wang Wan's obvious act of gagging escape the eyes of the two men?

Wang Han's eyes widened, trying to see something in his daughter's eyes. Wang Wan blinked quickly. Wang Han was obviously wondering why his daughter didn't let him say it. Isn't this what she expected?

He wanted to see what kind of medicine Wang Wan was selling in this gourd.

Shen Yu was more calm than Wang Han. From Wang Wan's attitude towards him as soon as he walked in, he noticed the same thing, that is, he didn't know what was wrong with Wang Wan.

"Ms. Wang, I heard that it was you who dreamed that the food and grass were strange this time. It's really a magical power."

Wang Wanfu said: "The Prime Minister's award is of great importance. I also hope that my father can perform his duties carefully."

After moistening his throat, Shen Yu didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he turned back to the previous topic.

"If I remember correctly, Miss Wang and I will be getting married in a few days. I wonder if Uncle Wang has any other instructions."

"This"

Wang Han glanced at Wang Wan, who nodded to his father and said, "Since Lord Shen and father have something to discuss, my daughter has withdrawn."

Wang Wan left, and Wang Han never mentioned the breakup of the engagement again, and seriously discussed the marriage with Shen Yu.

"In this case, I will personally come to verify the betrothal gift tomorrow morning."

After Shen Yu left, Wang Han went straight to Wang Wan's boudoir.

"What do you mean? If you don't want to marry Xie Yan, why do you want to stop me from breaking off the engagement?"

"Who said you want to marry Xie Yan?"

Wang Han took a breath of air: "What, you still want to marry Shen Yu and then have a private meeting with Xie Yan? Let me tell you, the Wang family will never allow such moral corruption."

"Dad, I'm saying that if I don't marry Xie Yan, I won't have any contact with him in the future."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Wang Han stepped forward and wiped his daughter's forehead, frowning and said: "Why do you suddenly have a brain? Are you possessed?"
