Chapter 436 Mrs. Chen
At this moment, the tent was opened from the outside.
"Mrs. Chen is here!"
As the eunuch's voice sounded, two maids first sent someone to pass the message, and then a woman in her forties walked into the tent.
The woman had a round face and a plump figure, and looked particularly cheerful. She didn't wear much jewelry, but the ease revealed in her eyes and eyebrows was enough to prove that she was living a very good life.
Everyone in the group stood up to greet her, and no one dared to look down on the Lady of the State of Chen.
Madam Chen is the younger sister of the current empress dowager. She was once married to the ruler of a small neighboring country. Later, when the ruler lost his country, he simply fled to Daqian. Now the couple is living a particularly happy life in Daqian.
Shen Shuyi had met the Lady of Chen State twice in her previous life, but she did not expect to see her in her own tent today.
Just as she was about to stand up to see An, Mrs. Chen came forward and supported her.
"No need to be polite, I just came to take a look."
The group of people stepped aside, and no one dared to say anything more.
"Thank you ma'am for your concern. I'm fine." Shen Shuyi spoke softly, his face still pale.
Mrs. Chen looked at her carefully and smiled more sincerely: "I was entrusted by someone to bring you some medicine for your injuries. You should take good care of your injuries. As for my sister, she has always had this temper. I will mediate between them for you when I have the chance another day..."
Shen Shuyi looked at the woman holding his hands affectionately. Her hands were fair and plump, with nails painted red with marigold juice. She wore a carved gold ring inlaid with a ruby, and a ruby pearl spiral bracelet.
It only makes people think of the words jewels, precious stones and natural wealth.
But Shen Shuyi clearly remembered that in his previous life, Mrs. Chen was not so close to him, let alone coming to visit him in person.
What's more, although this Lady of the State of Chen looked cheerful and kind, she was born noble and had experienced the pain of losing her country, so how could she be so easy to talk to?
"I have displeased the Empress Dowager. Shuyi knows I am wrong. I hope Madam can comfort Her Majesty and not get angry because of me." Shen Shuyi spoke in a gentle voice.
Mrs. Chen patted her hands and said, "Xiu Ya, leave the things behind."
The maidservant beside her handed the two boxes to Jinzhu.
Then, Mrs. Chen Guo handed a small box to Shen Shuyi and said in a deep voice, "I brought you some snacks to eat while you recover from your injury."
Shen Shuyi's mind was racing, but even though she was always smart, she couldn't figure out who had entrusted Mrs. Chen Guo with the task.
But it was obvious that Mrs. Chen had no intention of explaining.
She stood up and said, "Please ask the doctor to treat your injuries first. Don't leave any root of the disease. Girls are weak. You should take good care of yourself. When you recover, you can play with our Shuang'er."
After saying this, without waiting for Shen Shuyi to reply, she looked up at Madam Qin and her group, and said with a smile: "It's winter now, the charcoal fire in the tent is burning well, and there are too many people to move around, which can easily cause suffocation. I think we should not delay Shuyi's recovery, what do you think, Madam?"
Madam Qin was shocked and her face was stiff. She said quickly, "Madam is right. I am too concerned. I will leave now so as not to delay Sister Yi's cultivation."
Mrs. Chen Guo smiled and said, "It is a blessing for Shuyi to have you care about her."
After saying that, Mrs. Chen Guo glanced at Shen Shuyi, then turned and left.
Seeing Mrs. Chen Guo walking out of the tent, Mrs. Qin's face slowly darkened. After looking at Shen Shuyi deeply, she took Qin Xuerong and the others away.
Not far from the tent, Qin Xuerong chased up and asked, "Mother, why did Mrs. Chen support Shen Shuyi?"
She didn't come to visit Shen Shuyi at all, she was clearly here to intimidate them!
Qin Guiqiong couldn't help but say, "Is Mrs. Chen really so powerful? Shen Shuyi really can't be underestimated..."
Madam Qin glanced at Qin Xuerong, her tone filled with impatience: "You ask me why? I also want to ask you why! Shen Shuyi is under your nose every day, and now you let her have so many problems!"
Although Old Madam Qin had not reacted at first, now looking back on each and every thing, she felt that each and every one of these things was the work of Shen Shuyi.
Qin Xuerong looked unhappy and was speechless for a moment.
Lou Yulan stepped forward to comfort her, "Grandmother, although Madam Chen is noble, she is entrusted by someone, so I don't think she will offend the Queen Mother for Shen Shuyi."
"Besides, even if she is willing to plead with the Queen Mother on behalf of her cousin, the Queen Mother will not easily forgive her for punishing her this time. My cousin has angered the Queen Mother, so I'm sure her future will not be so smooth."
Lou Yulan spoke slowly and calmly, her voice was clear and inexplicably had some soothing power.
Madam Qin walked forward with her cane and shook her head, "You don't understand."
"Madam Chen has always been close to the late queen. If not a close friend, then a close friend. Now she is willing to save my face for Shen Shuyi. Tell me... what does this mean!"
You know, she was the wet nurse of the late queen, and the late queen always respected her. Lady Chen Guo, remembering this affection, usually helped her and the Qin family.
But now...
Thinking of this, Old Madam Qin couldn't help but sigh again: When people leave, the tea gets cold.
The more this happened, the more she wanted the Qin family to produce a queen.
Unfortunately, her own granddaughter was still young, and her granddaughters, Shen Jingzhen's reputation was ruined and Shen Jingyu's appearance was imperfect.
Thinking of this, Old Madam Qin couldn't help but look at Lou Yulan again.
This granddaughter is actually quite good.
Although her appearance is not as beautiful as Jingyu's, her manners and morals are outstanding, and she has not made any mistakes so far.
However, the Lou family's status is too poor, and it is still a far cry from the Shen family!
Lou Yulan really hadn't thought of this. She was silent for a moment and said, "Grandmother, don't worry too much. Since Madam Chen Guo was entrusted by someone, it only proves that this person has a lot of face, but it doesn't prove that Madam Chen Guo is willing to protect Shen Shuyi..."
Madam Qin looked solemn: "I hope it's as you said."
"No matter what, my cousin has offended the Empress Dowager now. I guess she won't be able to turn things around in a short period of time. We need to seize the time and plan big things." Lou Yulan said again.
Madam Qin said in a deep voice: "You are a sober person. You are right. The Queen Mother punished Shen Shuyi in public. Even if Madam Chen Guo protected her, what could Shen Shuyi do?"
Qin Guiqiong said: "I just don't know who has such a big face that can make Mrs. Chen Guo support Shen Shuyi even at the cost of offending the Queen Mother..."

On the other side, Lian Qiao, with red eyes, treated Shen Shuyi's injuries, and only cheered up after making sure that Shen Shuyi had no broken bones.
Shen Shuyi leaned on the couch, her eyes fell on her hand. The box left by Madam An Guo was placed there. She had specially given it to her personally, but she didn't know what was inside.
Shen Shuyi took the box and couldn't help but open it.
