After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, he became the favorite of everyone in the capital

Chapter 262 Got it

Niuniu nodded vigorously, patted her belly and said, "Don't worry, Sister Ling, Niuniu will do what she says!"

Looking at her cute little appearance, Shen Ling couldn't help but touch the little girl's hair. Shen Ling certainly didn't push everything to Niu Niu. He found the servants who were left behind by them and asked them to stand by outside the small garden and rush in to help as soon as there was any movement.

The princess was still entertaining the guests, but when she saw her daughter looking troubled, she finally found time to ask, "What happened again?"

Shen Ling glanced around, and the eldest princess immediately took her daughter to a small room nearby.

Shen Ling whispered the whole story, from the accidental eavesdropping at the rockery to his father returning to look for something, detailing every detail.

Compared to the huge reactions of Shen Changfeng and Shen Ling, the eldest princess remained calm from beginning to end, and her facial expression was even less volatile than when Lady Rongjia fell into the water.

"I understand. I will ask someone to verify it." The eldest princess said in a calm tone.

The princess continued, "When your father came to see me before, I sent him away on a random pretext."

Shen Ling was anxious when she saw her mother's unhurried attitude: "Mother, you must take this matter to heart and be on guard against father! Don't let him hurt you!"

When the princess heard her daughter's concerned words, she turned her head and looked at Shen Ling, as gentle as a pool of spring water, and then she reached out and patted Shen Ling's shoulder: "Don't worry, I know what's going on. You did the right thing in this matter. After all, it concerns the entire mansion, and it must not be a scene. Your brother is simple-minded and impulsive, so it's better to let him cool down in the small garden."

Shen Ling was praised, but there was no joy on her face. Instead, she asked, "Mother, why did father do this? Why is he so cruel?"

The princess couldn't help laughing when she heard this and said, "People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Who knows why he would make such a scandal when he could have lived a good life? It's nothing but some repetitive talk about men's dignity."

Shen Ling looked at her mother in confusion: "Don't you find it strange at all? Aren't you sad?"

The princess said, "What's so strange about that? I thought he was a man of sense, but now it seems he is just a man seeking death."

At this time, the eldest princess was even thankful that her husband had treated his two children badly for many years, and the children did not have any deep feelings for him, so she did not have to be cautious when taking action.

"Looking for death? Mother, what are you planning to do..." Shen Ling didn't dare to ask further.

What the eldest princess thinks is one thing, but some things are not suitable to be said too directly to her daughter.

"Silly child, what are you thinking about? I'm not the kind of person who kills innocent people. Your father betrayed me, so I separated from him. There's no need to kill him. Besides, the matter hasn't been investigated clearly yet, so it may not really be your father."

Shen Ling lowered her head after hearing this and said, "Whether it's father or not, my brother and I will definitely side with mother."

After her daughter left, the eldest princess's eyes suddenly turned cold. She called an old maid in and said, "Go to the guest house at the back and ask Shen Changjun if he is the illegitimate son of the prince consort. Be sure to find out clearly before you give me an answer."

The old nanny lowered her head, revealing her calloused hands: "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely ask everything clearly and make sure it is quiet and will not disturb the guests in the mansion."

The old nanny started to torture severely, questioning him without asking whether he lived or died.

The princess nodded and said, "You are fine. I have nothing to worry about."

In the small garden, Shen Ling left in a hurry and came back quickly.

The moment Shen Changfeng heard the noise, he immediately jumped out like a little animal, grabbed Shen Ling and asked, "Have you told your mother? Is she alert? Did your father take action?"

Shen Ling: ...

"Don't worry, brother. Mother knows everything. She also said that he might not be the father. We need to check it out carefully." Shen Ling said.

Shen Changfeng asked back: "Who else could it be if not father?" Shen Ling naturally had no answer. Although her mother put it simply, she had already determined in her heart that it was her father.

Niuniu said: "Whether it's your father or not, he always compares you with others and says that you are not good. This is wrong! Even if my third brother is not good at studying, my parents will never scold him with others!"

Shen Changfeng thought about it carefully. Gu Zhao was naughty and didn't like to study. Gu Mingda had never said that he wished he didn't have this son. But Shen Fushan would always say such heartbreaking words every now and then.

"I have a good relationship with my third brother. Even when we quarrel, I will never say 'I will never play with you again', because I know that will make my third brother sad. I will only say to him: 'I am angry with you now, I will not talk to you for a day'."

"Third brother just made me angry for a moment, so I will only be angry with him for a moment and not say anything particularly bad. This way, we will always be good siblings."

Niu Niu always has a lot of ideas when it comes to talking about how to get along with family.

When Shen Changfeng and Shen Ling heard the little girl's words, a look of guilt flashed across their faces.

The relationship between the two siblings is indeed very good, but not so good that they would not swear at each other.

"Guaibao is right. It may make you feel good to say harsh words, but it will always leave a crack in your heart. People can say such harsh words and scold you at every turn. In the final analysis, it means they don't like you and don't care about you." Shen Ling didn't know whether she was comforting her brother or herself.

Shen Changfeng took a deep breath and said, "If it is really proven that he betrayed my mother, then I will just forget about my father!"

Shen Ling was relieved to see that her brother had finally thought it through.

"Let's go back, the banquet is about to start." Shen Ling urged.

Shen Changfeng nodded, turned around and pointed to a potted plant with pink and white flowers and asked, "Niuniu likes this pot of pink orchid, take it back later."

Niuniu waved her hands quickly.

Shen Changfeng said: "Why are you being so polite to me? I saw it all. You were secretly looking at it the whole time! And you still say you don't like it?"

Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Niuniu could only happily agree and said, "Brother Changfeng is the best!"

Shen Changfeng's lips curled up.

Shen Ling on the side was unhappy and said, "I also have a pink orchid, I will give one to Guaibao as well, so that we can make a pair. Why doesn't Guaibao say good things about me?"

Niuniu immediately said: "Sister Ling is the best too!"

Shen Ling was satisfied and looked at his brother provocatively.

Shen Changfeng didn't think much about it and said, "Let's take another road. I don't think I'll want to take a shortcut for a long time."

It's just a long detour and still not peaceful.

Not long after the three of them left the small garden and walked onto a pebbled path, they suddenly heard the woman's faint crying.

"Brother Yuan, you clearly said you wanted to marry me, so why did mother say you were already engaged to Miss Li?"

When Shen Ling heard this, she knew that it involved an affair between a man and a woman, so she hurriedly grabbed Shen Changfeng and Niuniu who were watching the fun, and prepared to pull the two people, one adult and one child, away.

Unexpectedly, the female voice said, "You don't know, the eldest princess looked at me a few more times at the banquet today, and my mother intends to marry me to that playboy Shen Changfeng!"
