“Then we’ll talk about your marriage after Lian’er enters the residence.”

Song Rui cupped his hands and bowed. It was considered a tacit consent. Instantly, Minister Shen’s treatment of Song Rui changed again.

When he spoke to Song Rui, his attitude had reverted to his earlier attitude.

Song Rui responded calmly and chatted with Minister Shen for a while before leaving.

After walking out of Minister Shen s study, Song Rui’s expression was grim.

After getting rid of Shen Rong, now there was another Shen Lian.

The matter of the old fox’s “adopted daughter” could not be settled rashly. Otherwise, it would alert the enemy and arouse the suspicion of the old fox. As such, he could only speed up the process and help Prince Huaiyin accomplish his goal quickly.

Sigh! Initially, he was feeling relaxed and happy as he waited to meet his wife. However, now…

If he could not get rid of his title of being the old fox’s future son-in-law, his wife would probably be angry with him…

Suppressing the helplessness in his heart, Song Rui headed outside.

Tonight Mrs. Shen was going out of the residence to see “Shen Rong,” so he had to handle this matter personally.

Night soon fell.

At midnight, Mrs. Shen finally came out from the back door of the Shen residence.

As soon as she appeared, Song Rui s men invited her into the horse carriage. After that, the horse carriage left the alley and brought Mrs. Shen out of the city.

After traveling for a while, they arrived at a house in the suburbs.

When she was informed that they had arrived, Mrs. Shen quickly got off the horse carriage.

She ignored the coachman and walked towards the house after getting off the horse carriage.

When the people guarding the gate saw her coming over, they immediately stopped her.

“Impudent!” Mrs. Shen shouted.

Just as she was about to clash with the guards, Song Rui heard the commotion and emerged from inside.

When he saw a woman with a veil over her face and rhe horse carriage not far away, Song Rui was certain that this woman was Mrs. Shen.

He quickly ordered the guards to step back.

Then, he went forward and cupped his hands at Mrs. Shen.

“These subordinates don’t know any manners. Please do not blame them, Mistress.”

Mrs. Shen looked at Song Rui and didn’t argue with the guards anymore. She went straight into the courtyard.

Song Rui followed hurriedly.

“Where is Rong’er?” Mrs. Shen quickly asked.

“In the house,” Song Rui replied and pointed at the only house with lights on. Mrs. Shen quickened her pace and almost ran into that house.

When she saw the two coffins placed in the middle of rhe room, Mrs. Shen’s heart shuddered.

She flipped the veil over her head aside and ran towards the coffin on the left.

When she reached the coffin, she saw the person lying inside.

There was a female corpse lying in the coffin, and her figure was exactly the same as Shen Rong’s.

However, the female corpse’s face was already damaged, and it was impossible to see her exact facial features.

Nonetheless, judging from the undamaged parts of the face, it matched Shen Rong’s face.

Mrs. Shen was frightened so badly that her legs went weak and she almost couldn’t hold onto the coffin.

Then, she braced herself and stood up again.

Following that, she quickly reached out and grabbed one of the female corpse’s arms.

Then, she pulled up the sleeve on the female corpse’s arm…

When she saw the black mole on the female corpse’s arm, Mrs. Shen immediately burst into tears.

“Oh, my Rong’er… my beloved Rong’er…”

Song Rui witnessed the whole process while standing on one side.

When he saw Mrs. Shen’s reaction, his eyes flickered and his heart calmed down.

That was right. He had asked Shen Rong about her physical characteristics in advance, and it had taken him a lot of effort to find a substitute for Shen Rong and Meng Xuan. He did all this in order to deceive Minister Shen and Mrs. Shen.

On Minister Shen’s side, things went smoother than he expected. That old fox didn’t even look ar Shen Rong when he found out that she was dead.

As for Mrs. Shen, it seemed that the corpse had also passed the test.

At least his efforts didn’t go to waste.

“When 1 found Young Miss and Young Master Meng, they happened to have fallen on the rock debris.

“In order not to let Mistress worry, 1 didn’t mention it before,” Song Rui stepped forward and explained.

When he saw that Mrs. Shen was still holding the female corpse’s hand, he appeared sympathetic and said, “Please don’t grieve too much, Mistress.” “If Young Miss were still around, she would definitely not wish to see Mistress so sad for her sake.”

Only then did Mrs. Shen’s expression change somewhat.

She finally put down the female corpse’s hand and turned to look at Song Rui.

“Thank you for taking care of this,” she then said.

She must avenge her daughter and make Shen Hongyu regret it!

However, she would nor be able to do it by herself.

Song Rui, the person Shen Hongyu had taken a fancy to, would become the next person she wanted to win over.

Didn’t Shen Hongyu want this person to take over his position as Prime Minister? She would help.

However, when that day finally came…

He would realize that the person he had carefully nurtured was actually her person.

Shen Hongyu’s expression would definitely be very interesting at that point.

She would let the Shen residence and the Shen family be buried with her daughter!

When she thought of this, Mrs. Shen’s hatred for Song Rui completely disappeared.

Song Rui quickly bowed to Mrs. Shen.

“Mistress, you’re too kind.

“Young Miss…” As he spoke, he looked at the female corpse in the coffin with an expression full of conflicting emotions.

“Young Miss’s great kindness weighs heavily on me. Now that she has left, someone should send her off.¹’

Mrs. Shen looked at Song Rui with a rare gentleness in her eyes.

When she saw that Song Rui couldn’t forget her daughter, her opinion of Song Rui improved somewhat.

Mrs. Shen nodded.

“I’m counting on you to take care of Rong’er’s funeral.

“I cannot leave the Shen residence for too long. After Rong’er is buried, please let me know her final resting place.

“At that point, 1 will find an opportunity to arrange for the grave to be moved.” Shen Hongyu had gotten people to create the illusion that his daughter was seriously ill. Thereafter, he would definitely release the news of her sudden death.

Following that, she would find an opportunity to swap her daughter’s corpse back so that her daughter could enjoy the glory of a grand funeral that should have belonged to her.

As her mother, this was the only thing she could do for her daughter.

That heartless Shen Hongyu not only hid the news of his daughter’s death, but he didn’t even give her a proper funeral.

She swore that she would make him pay.

Song Rui looked at Mrs. Shen and guessed her thoughts.

“The Prime Minister’s residence will hold a grand funeral for Young Miss.

“If Mistress wants to switch anything secretly, I’m afraid it won’t be easy,” he advised.

Mrs. Shen stared straight back at Song Rui, to the extent that Song Rui had to lower his head.

“Don’t worry. 1 know what to do. I won’t implicate you.” At this moment, Mrs. Shen spoke up.

” I didn’t mean it that way…” Song Rui quickly tried to explain.

However, just as he raised his head, he saw Mrs. Shen gesturing at him to stop him from continuing.

“It’s normal for you to be worried. However, you’re worrying too much.

“I will arrange everything.

“Moreover, even if Shen Hongyu finds out, I have a way to make him not flare up. I can even make him promise to let Rong’er enjoy the grand burial that should have belonged to her.”

After all, the Jia family and the Empress were still standing behind her.

She only wanted him to let her daughter be buried in the place that should have belonged to her. He had no reason to object.

As long as she gave him her word to continue being the Prime Minister’s wife and maintain the relationship between the Prime Minister’s residence and the Jia family, as well as the palace…

Since her daughter was already dead, she naturally could not expect anything more from Shen Hongyu. Her love for Shen Hongyu had been completely wiped out. Now, she only had hatred for him..
