Chapter 528 - 528 Domineering Daddy Jing!
This simple sentence stunned everyone present.
Thank you readers!
Everyone looked at Jing Zhen in disbelief.
What did he just say?
Mother???
Who could call the Queen ‘Mother’?
Everyone looked at the Queen and then at Jing Zhen. Suddenly, they understood something, and the people surrounding Jing Zhen instantly moved away!
Even Shen Yuansong was stunned.
When Jing Zhen turned to look over, Shen Ruojing almost rushed over to stop her father. But at this moment, she suddenly understood something. She stared blankly at Jing Zhen and then at the Queen. After that, she looked at Shen Qianhui who was still confused.
Chu Cichen, who was standing beside her, narrowed his eyes and looked at Jing Zhen in shock.
Although he knew that his father-in-law was not ordinary, he did not expect his status to be so noble!
Country A’s crown prince… No, as far as he knew, Country A’s king had passed away two years ago. Therefore, the moment Jing Zhen appeared in front of everyone and the moment he shouted the words ‘old witch’, he was already Country A’s king!
The Queen’s eyes turned slightly red when Jing Zhen turned around. She shouted, “You unfilial son, it’s really you!”
However, her voice was a little choked.
The mother and son had not seen each other for more than 20 years…
How could she say that she didn’t miss him?!
Fortunately, he would always have Old Master Bai send a message home every year. Otherwise, the Queen would probably turn China upside down to find him.
She trembled and took a step forward as she pushed Shen Yuansong away. She wanted to push Shen Qianhui away as well, but Jing Zhen took a step forward and stopped her. He stared at the Queen and said, “Let me introduce you. This is my wife, Shen Qianhui. That is my daughter, Shen Ruojing.”
His tone was cold and emotionless as he said, “The marriage between the Shen Family and the royal family has not ended in my generation! As for you wanting my daughter to marry into the royal family… I’m afraid that won’t do.”
The Queen was stunned. Seeing that he was so heartless, she could only retract her enthusiasm. She looked at Shen Qianhui and then at Shen Ruojing. After that, she nodded at Shen Qianhui and said, “It’s been hard on you all these years.”
Shen Qianhui. “...”
She had not met her in-laws when Jing Zhen married into her family. When she brought this matter up, Jing Zhen said that they had passed away.
But now that she suddenly saw her mother-in-law, Shen Qianhui did not know how to react…
Shen Ruojing frowned.
Old Master Bai’s eyes flickered. He took a step forward and bowed respectfully to Jing Zhen. “Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Everyone seemed to have understood something as they looked at Jing Zhen.
The corners of the Queen’s lips curled up slightly. “Your father passed away three years ago and left behind a will to appoint you as king. From now on, you are the king.”
From today onward, she would be the Queen Dowager of Country A’s royal family!
Jing Zhen narrowed his peach blossom eyes and heard Old Master Bai ask. “What about the marriage alliance with the other three families…”
Before the Queen Dowager could speak, Jing Zhen sneered and said, “Cancel them!”
The Queen Dowager immediately said, “No!”
But before she could finish her sentence, Jing Zhen looked at her. “Mother, if you have the final say for everything in Country A, should I not be the king then? I’ll continue to stay here as a son-in-law living with my wife’s family!”
After saying that, he sat down at the second table again.
The Queen Dowager. “???”
She was wondering why Jing Zhen would obediently inherit the throne. So he was waiting for her to fall into his trap!
Jing Zhen had just ascended to the throne. If she insisted on saying no, it would damage his dignity. Moreover, her son had just been forced to acknowledge her. What if he were to run away again?
The Queen Dowager became anxious and said directly, “Alright, alright, alright. You have the final say.”
At this moment, Old Master Bai, who had always known the truth, was not shocked. He was the first to react. He hurriedly walked over and said, “Mr. Jing, you should sit at the main table.”
Jing Zhen raised his eyebrows and suddenly said with a smile, “No need. After all, I am the son-in-law who lives with the Shen Family. It is good for me to sit there.”
These words made the Queen Dowager’s expression turn even worse.
She snarled, “What do you mean by son-in-law who lives with the wife’s family? The Shen Family dares to let you marry into their family?”
She glared at Shen Yuansong.
Shen Yuansong was still in a daze and hadn’t reacted to the situation yet.
The small-time celebrity whom he didn’t care for turned out to be Country A’s crown prince?!
How could that be possible?
He stood there in a daze and waited for a while. When he saw Old Master Bai looking at him, he finally understood something. He gulped and immediately said, “He’s not a son-in-law who married into our family, how can he be married into our family…”
But if he wasn’t, then what was he?
Jing Zhen said calmly, “That won’t do. Since I said that I’d marry into the family, then that’s how things should be. At the very least, Jingjing must have the surname ‘Shen’.
The Queen Dowager immediately looked at Shen Ruojing.
She narrowed her eyes, knowing that her son was negotiating with her again.
She said calmly, “How can a princess of the royal family be wandering outside?
She has to be brought back to the palace.”
Before Jing Zhen could speak, Shen Ruojing understood the current situation. She hurriedly said, “Father, I will go back with you.’
Actually, there was no need for her to go back.
However, Shen Qianhui’s pregnancy was a little unstable.
After all, she was old and had always been bullied in the Shen family when she was young. Since she never ate well, her body was a little weak.
Previously, the reason why Shen Ruojing had said that there was no problem with Shen Qianhui was because the latter was around.
Hence, she definitely was going to follow Shen Qianhui.
Jing Zhen narrowed his eyes and said, “What about Jingjing’s three children?” The Queen Dowager clenched her fists.
She had made up her mind to let Shen Ruojing marry her son because those three children were too outstanding!
Now that she realized that they were of royal blood, the Queen Dowager would definitely not bear to part with them.
However, Jing Zhen had given in step by step. If she continued to insist on her stand, her son would not leave with her.
The Queen Dowager thought for a moment before her gaze landed on Shen Qianhui’s stomach. She smiled. ‘They are the Chu Family and the Shen Family’s children, so of course, I won’t be so tyrannical.”
Shen Yuansong.
(You’ve already taken my lovely daughter and granddaughter away, and you’re still saying that you won’t be so tyrannical?!)
This was too much!
But now that the situation was like this, Shen Yuansong knew that it was impossible for the king’s wife to stay in the Shen Family...
They could have been considered to have finally come to an agreement.
At this moment, an old but loud voice came from the door. “Aiyo, Brother, I’m late today!”
An old lady hobbled in and came before them. She was Shen Yuansong’s younger sister. Her home was quite far away, and she had set off early.
However, there had been a traffic jam in the capital, so she was late.
“Fortunately, I’ve made it in time for Jingjing’s birthday banquet.”
After saying that, this great-aunt of the Shen Family looked at Shen Qianhui.
‘Brother, this is your daughter, right?”
Then, she looked at Jing Zhen who was beside Shen Qianhui.
She could not help but twitch her lips and complain, “You’re already so old, yet you still want your wife to give birth to your child? Why? Is there a throne or something in your family to inherit?”
As soon as she said this, everyone suddenly fell silent.
Shen Yuansong, Leader Xu, and Leader Rong’s expressions instantly turned very interesting.
They must have recalled what they said about Jing Zhen in the resting room earlier on...
Upstairs, the three children had no idea about the situation below.
However, after hearing the commotion downstairs, Old Hong sent someone to check on the situation.
Chu Tianye looked at Chu Yu.
Thinking about how that old witch had tried to sow discord between the siblings earlier, he coughed and patted Chu Yu’s shoulder. “Brother, although you inherited our maternal grandfather’s family and it’s the poorest amongst the families, as you can see, it’s not a good thing to inherit a wealthy family. The Shen Family has so much trouble every day. Also, don’t worry. As long as I have meat to eat, I’ll definitely give you soup to drink!”
Chu Yu:
Chu Tianye was afraid that Chu Yu would be jealous of him, so he continued, ‘We have agreed that the Shen Family is mine. This cannot be changed. Come, pinky promise!”
The corners of Chu Yu’s mouth twitched, but he still made a pinky promise with Chu Tianye. The two little men made a decision.
At this moment, Third Martial Uncle suddenly rushed in.
Old Hong hurriedly asked, “How is it? Did they get into a fight? Who won?”
Third Martial Uncle immediately gulped. “No, no, it’s, it’s, it’s, it’s Martial Junior Sister’s father... He’s, he’s actually...”
As soon as he said this, the three little ones immediately looked over.
Chu Tianye asked, “What happened to my grandfather? Although he’s a married-in son-in-law, he can’t be looked down on like this!”
Third Martial Uncle was dumbfounded. “...A married-in son-in-law?”
Chu Tianye nodded immediately and defended Jing Zhen. “Although my grandfather is unreliable and boasts every day, he is still a good person. Oh right, what did you want to say just now? Did someone bully my grandfather?
Is it because he doesn’t have money?
Third Martial Uncle. “.
