Demoting the Wife to a Concubine? The Reborn Legitimate Daughter Crippled his Entire Family.

"Gu Yanran is not a problem, but what happened last night, do you want to tell me about it?" Ji Yucang adjusted a comfortable posture and leaned lazily on the brocade couch, "Princess Jiahe has a bad temper and cruel methods. Give her a break." It’s time to give them a lesson. I just want to know what they said after they came in.”

Shen Ning looked indifferent: "Princess Jiahe asked me to tell her how my innocence was ruined by bandits. She also asked me how shameful I am to live in the world and dream of marrying into the royal family. I think this question should be asked to you."

After all, the person who issued the decree was the emperor, and the person who married her was the regent. She just accepted such a marriage at the right time.

"You should really ask me." Ji Yucang nodded, "She has found the wrong person, and she deserves to be taught a lesson."

Shen Ning said calmly: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Ji Yucang seemed curious: "Do you always answer whatever I ask?"

It is something unspeakable for a woman to have her innocence damaged, but she reacted so calmly and calmly, as if the person who was hurt had nothing to do with her.

"Within our ability." Shen Ning nodded slowly, "After all, you are my husband now. I can leave the Zhenguo Palace naturally because of your help."

Revenge when there is hatred, repay kindness when there is kindness.

Nothing to get hung up on.

Ji Yucang pondered for a moment: "In that case, I would like to know what you think of what happened in the suburbs."

"Are you talking about mountain bandits in the suburbs?" Shen Ning's eyebrows showed a layer of coldness, and there seemed to be an icy glow in the heart of her eyes. "I will find out what happened. Those who deserve to pay will pay their dues." cost."

Although she was reborn into Shen Ning after her death, since she used Shen Ning's identity, it is natural that she should seek justice for her.

Ji Yucang asked: "Do you have any judgment in your heart?"

"I can't say judgment, because there is no evidence yet." Shen Ning said calmly, "But there is still a little suspicion."

Ji Yucang said calmly: "Tell me about it."

Shen Ning glanced at him silently, and couldn't help but wonder, is the powerful Regent of Yong so free?

There are rumors outside that he is ruthless, bloodthirsty and brutal. I wonder if this is an exaggeration.

Killing the enemy on the battlefield is to protect the homeland, but privately...

Shen Ning felt that he was not as scary as the rumors said.

"Since those thieves started killing people, it shows that they are cruel and inhumane, but they just let me go." Her tone was calm and unwavering, "The purpose of the thieves was not to rob me, but to create a situation where I was raped. A tarnished illusion.”

Ji Yucang hummed: "Do you think there is someone behind this?"

"Of course." Shen Ning nodded, "Although the Zhenguo Palace is not as powerful as your Regent's Palace, it is not small in power. How can those thieves in a house of powerful people in the capital be so bold to kill people so close to the capital? "

"It shows that the identity of the person behind it is extraordinary." Ji Yucang raised his eyebrows, "So it is true that the bandits are brutal, but they do not steal wealth or sex, so they have another purpose."

It's just that this person can instigate such a cruel bandit, kill so many maids and guards of the Duke's Palace, destroy the innocence of a legitimate daughter of the Duke's Palace, and still ensure that he is safe and sound.

Obviously not something ordinary people can do.

Shen Ning's voice was as smooth as snow, as calm as if she was narrating someone else's affairs: "I lost my reputation for innocence, but my chastity was preserved. The thieves did not get any additional benefits other than a few lives on their hands, so their purpose has never changed. It was all just to damage my reputation.”

A strange look flashed across Ji Yucang's eyes: "The analysis is correct."

"There are two possibilities for people who want to discredit me." When Shen Ning analyzed the cause and effect, her tone was so calm that there was no emotion, as if she was telling someone else's story, "One is that she has a grudge against me, or I blocked her interests. , the behind-the-scenes instigator is a woman, her purpose is to prevent me from marrying Qin Yanshu, but if this is the reason, then there is no need for her to let the thieves deliberately keep me chaste. After all, she has killed everyone, so she still cares about ruining a woman? "

Ji Yucang raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at her cold and calm face, the color in his eyes was deep and unpredictable.

"The second possibility is Qin Yanshu himself." When Shen Ning said this, a chill gradually appeared in her eyes, "He wants to demote his wife as a concubine, but this behavior will be reviled by the world, and there is no legitimate reason. The Duke of Zhen Guo The government will not allow his legitimate daughter to change from his wife to a concubine, so he needs to find another way."

No matter what the other party's reasons are, she will never become his concubine. This is not only an insult to the woman, but also a humiliation to the entire Shen family.

But once a woman loses her innocence, her situation becomes different.

Innocence is more important than life. Losing innocence is equivalent to bringing shame to the family. Most strong-minded women choose to die. Even if they are lucky enough to survive, marriage will become a hot potato.

At this time, Qin Yanshu remembered his old love and was willing to take her as his concubine, thus becoming a good man who valued love and justice among the world.

But a man can't tolerate his woman being abused by others, even if it's a concubine, so Shen Ning was able to keep her virginity in the end - and she had to keep her chastity.

Ji Yucang propped up his chin and stared at her indifferent face as cold as snow without saying a word. He probably didn't expect that she would come to such an almost accurate conclusion in such a short period of time.

"Qin Yanshu and your childhood sweethearts are very affectionate towards you, and people have always praised him as gentle as jade, reserved and dignified." Ji Yucang smiled faintly, "Do you think he would do such a thing?"

"Knowing people but not their hearts." Shen Ning was calm and rational, "No feelings can last forever."

"So you think it's him?"

Shen Ning answered with reservations: "90% possible."

"Ning'er is very smart." Ji Yucang slowly raised his lips, "I am very happy."

Shen Ning raised her eyes and looked at him expressionlessly.

"This is a gift from this king to my newlywed wife." Ji Yucang took something out of his sleeve and put it on the small table in front of him, "I hope Ning'er likes it."

Shen Ning lowered his eyes and looked.

Placed on the small table is a dagger with complicated carvings but clearly showing some age. It looks simple and inconspicuous, but those who know the goods can see that it is a valuable weapon.

Shen Ning picked up the dagger and pulled it out. The sharp dagger blade was glowing with cold light. It was priceless, but I dare not say it. It could cut iron like mud.

Shen Ning inserted the dagger blade into the sheath and did not refuse: "Thank you very much."

"There is no need to say thank you between husband and wife." Ji Yucang stood up and brushed his robe elegantly, "I still have some things to deal with. Ning'er can ask Shi Qin and Shi Qi to take you around the palace, gardens, and books. The pavilion, the school grounds, there is no place to go.”

Shen Ning hummed and stood up to see him leave.

When Ji Yucang walked out of the room and away from his sight, Shen Ning lowered his eyes and looked at the dagger in his hand, a deep thought flashing through his eyes.
