Shu Yuwan was waiting in the palace, and after a while, Qingdai came in and announced, "Your Majesty, Princess Ning is here."
"Please."
Qingdai led Princess Ning in. Shu Yuwan looked over and saw that Princess Ning looked good and didn't look like she had encountered any difficulties, so she was not so anxious.
"Queen." Princess Ning greeted Shu Yuwan.
Shu Yuwan quickly helped her up and asked: "Foster mother, what happened? You have endured it for so many years, why do you want to divorce suddenly?"
Princess Ning shook her head and said with a faint smile: "Nothing happened. It's just that I learned something recently and feel that there is no need to endure it any longer."
"What's the matter?" Shu Yuwan asked curiously.
After Princess Ning said this, Shu Yuwan realized that Princess Ning had even lost her title of concubine, and instead used "I" to refer to herself.
Princess Ning looked at Shu Yuwan, smiled and said slowly: "The Queen should also know that over the years, the relationship between Prince Ning and I has long since broken down. It stands to reason that a daughter from a noble family does not seek love, but the prosperity of the family. prosperity."
"But to me, the Wang family is already prosperous enough, and there is no need for me to contribute to the prosperity of the Wang family."
"I once had feelings for Prince Ning. Later, after experiencing pain, collapse, and despair, I gave up. I wanted to end the marriage, but I endured it just for Sheng'er. , Now, Sheng'er's position is unbreakable, and I don't want to endure it anymore. "
Shu Yuwan was puzzled when he heard the words, frowned slightly, and said simply: "Foster mother, please forgive me for my words, although Prince Ning is not young, it is not impossible for him to remarry and have children."
Princess Ning said firmly: "Don't worry, he won't have any more children!"
When Shu Yuwan heard this, she thought for a moment, looked at Princess Ning in disbelief, and asked, "Foster mother, you mean...?"
Princess Ning nodded very lightly.
Shu Yuwan was extremely surprised. Is it really what she thought?
Shu Yuwan asked hesitantly: "Then...does Uncle Ning know?"
Princess Ning shook her head and said sarcastically: "Of course I don't know. At first, I thought that before I settled the trouble, he had an illegitimate child outside. I didn't dare to mention reconciliation. I accidentally learned about it when I quarreled with him recently. The illegitimate child he has worked so hard to hide turns out to be a child only in the past few years, so it cannot be his! "
Shu Yuwan didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a long while, he said: "How did you know that Uncle Ning didn't cure himself?"
Princess Ning said with indifference in her eyes: "Absolutely impossible."
Shu Yuwan stopped talking. It seemed that her adoptive mother had been cruel! I learned a lot today. Uncle Ning actually has an illegitimate child outside. This illegitimate child is not Uncle Ning's.
Shu Yuwan calmed down her thoughts. The conflict between Prince Ning and his wife was almost a household name in Beijing. At first, she was a little bit aggrieved because of her adoptive mother. But now it seems that her adoptive mother did not suffer any loss in influencing this matter.
Thinking about it, he smiled and said: "In that case, the adoptive mother can do whatever she wants."
"It's just that you are the daughter-in-law of the royal family. I'm afraid it won't be easy if you want to reconcile."
He also told Princess Ning about the situation when the clan came to see the emperor yesterday.
Princess Ning also expected it, but she had already made up her mind and said to Shu Yuwan: "From now on, I will teach at the 【Lishen College】 you run."
Shu Yuwan's eyes lit up.
Princess Ning smiled when she saw the curved lips and said, "I can teach them how to read and write."
He added: "You don't have to recruit only girls from common people's families. There are girls from aristocratic families who are forced to have nowhere to go. It's just that most people have to endure it. If there are any of these people who are willing to come, , I will help you teach, others can’t teach, management of property, imperial court, music, chess, calligraphy and painting are still acceptable. In the future, if there is any use for these people, you can also use them. "
Shu Yuwan and Princess Ning looked at each other and both smiled.
At this moment, Shu Yuwan began to look forward to Princess Ning's divorce.
The two talked for a while about the future plans of 【Lishen Academy】 before saying goodbye reluctantly.
As soon as Princess Ning left, the emperor immediately sent someone to ask about the situation.
Shu Yuwan was a little embarrassed, and she had promised to persuade Princess Ning, but now she and the emperor were no longer in the same camp.
He had no choice but to reply to the emperor and said that Princess Ning was determined to reconcile and she could not persuade her at all!
On the other side, Princess Ning had just returned to Prince Ning's Mansion when Prince Ning and Chen Shiyi came in a hurry.
Prince Ning was okay. He knew that the relationship between his father, the Queen, his mother and his concubine was broken, and he had no expectations for them. He didn't really care if his mother and concubine reconciled if they wanted to. After all, it was his mother who made them reconcile or not. Concubine.
Chen Shiyi was different. As soon as he got the news, he anxiously dragged Prince Ning over and asked incomprehensibly: "Concubine, what happened, you, why are you?"
Princess Ning looked lovingly at her son and daughter-in-law.
"Sheng'er, Yi'er, don't worry, it's nothing important. I've just had enough of staying in Prince Ning's Mansion."
Princess Ning looked outside the room with a hint of boredom in her eyes.
"After the mother-in-law reconciles with your father, she will never affect Sheng'er's status in the palace. Sheng'er's position as the heir apparent is unbreakable. How will you live your life in the future?"
Prince Ning nodded and said, "I can do anything. It's up to mother and concubine to do whatever she wants."
As he said this, he prepared to take Chen Shiyi with him, but Chen Shiyi refused: "Your Majesty, please leave first. I want to talk to my mother and concubine."
Prince Ning looked at Princess Ning, who smiled and said, "Then Sheng'er, you go ahead."
"Well."
Prince Ning said hello to the two of them and left first.
Princess Ning looked at Chen Shiyi who was left behind, and asked with a gentle smile: "Is there anything else that Yi'er can do?"
Chen Shiyi's expression did not change, he bowed solemnly, and then said: "Mother and concubine, my daughter-in-law implores mother and concubine, can you consider the prince and not to divorce."
The smile on Princess Ning's lips gradually faded.
Chen Shiyi did not back down and continued: "Concubine, no matter what kind of entanglement you have with your father, as long as you are still Princess Ning, it is just a family matter. If you and your father reconcile, no matter where the prince goes, Everyone will look at her in a different light, and they will inevitably be treated differently by the royal family, even if the daughter-in-law gives birth to a child in the future. "
Princess Ning said calmly: "Why care about other people's opinions."
Chen Shiyi's voice was calm: "Mother and concubine, we all live in the world. There are a few people who can completely ignore other people's opinions."
Princess Ning looked at Chen Shiyi seriously.
This daughter-in-law, ever since she came to Princess Ning, has always been measured in her advances and retreats, and is generous in everything she does. She is a typical lady of the family.
She would mind if her mother-in-law wants to divorce her, which is normal, but she was negligent.
Chen Shiyi let Princess Ning look at her for a while and said, "Concubine, please think about it again. My daughter-in-law has resigned first."
Princess Ning nodded, Chen Shiyi bowed and turned to leave.
