Chapter 692: A Man Who Doesn't Understand Romance (1)

"My daughter pays respects to my father!"

Shen Furong was brought to the main hall. When she saw Magistrate Shen, she bowed immediately. Her watery eyes looked at him sadly.

If she had seen this aggrieved and resentful look a few days ago, Magistrate Shen would have felt distressed and would have asked her what was wrong? What made her unhappy? Was she wronged? However, when he saw this look now, he felt nothing but disgust and hatred!

However, although he was unhappy, County Magistrate Shen did not attack her. He just said coldly: "You have heard about Yan's matter. Logically, I am no longer your father, and you are no longer the daughter of my Shen family. But considering that we are father and daughter, I am willing to give you a chance. If you work hard and complete the tasks I have assigned to you, you will still be my daughter, Shen Luming, and the second lady of my Shen family. If not, humph!" He laughed coldly a few times, "Our father-daughter relationship is over, and you don't have to be surnamed Shen anymore!"

County Magistrate Shen's meaning was very clear, that is, to tell Shen Furong that if she could not complete the task he assigned to her, she could just die!

Hearing this, Shen Furong shivered slightly. She raised her head tremblingly and looked at her once loving father, but found that there was no warmth in his eyes. It was obvious that he was serious and would not tolerate her resistance and bargaining. Therefore, she bit her lip, lowered her head and said: "Daughter, just follow your father's orders!"

"Very good, you are sensible!"

Mr. Shen leaned on the back of the chair and laughed coldly a few times.

"Pack up. Tomorrow morning I will send someone to escort you to the military camp of Dajin in Lingbei to deliver some food and medicine to His Royal Highness the King of Qin. When you arrive at the King of Qin's camp, be sure to find out if there is a woman named Mu Caiwei in the King of Qin's camp!"

Based on County Magistrate Shen's many years of experience in the flower garden, women are very sensitive creatures. If Mu Caiwei is in the King of Qin's camp, if he knows that a woman is coming to visit the King of Qin, and she is a young and beautiful woman, she will most likely show up. That's why he gave the task of delivering things to Shen Furong!

"Yes, my daughter will live up to my father's instructions and will find out whether Miss Mu is in the King of Qin's camp!"

Shen Furong answered respectfully with her eyes lowered, but she was secretly happy in her heart.

Although she was in the boudoir, she had heard of the great name of His Royal Highness the King of Qin. This legitimate prince, known as the first prince of the Great Jin Kingdom, was born to the Queen of the Great Jin Kingdom. He was handsome and noble. If she could attract his attention or be favored by him, what would the crisis in front of her be?

If she could become the concubine of the King of Qin in one fell swoop, it would be such an honor. Even her stepfather would have to kowtow to her when he saw her!

Thinking of this, she was inexplicably excited. She suppressed her pounding heart, bowed respectfully to County Magistrate Shen, and left.

As soon as Shen Furong left, County Magistrate Shen got up and went to Cui's courtyard in the backyard.

Cui's courtyard is located in the west courtyard of the Shen Mansion. Originally, she lived in the big courtyard on the east side, but Yan said that she had many children and the courtyard was too small to accommodate them. At that time, County Magistrate Shen was blinded by lust and did not care about his wife's face and mood. In a word, he sent Cui, the wife of the main wife, to the small courtyard that was supposed to be lived in by concubines, and she has lived there for more than ten years. During these years, the number of times he has stepped into this courtyard can be counted on one hand, but at that time, he felt it was justified and did not think it was wrong. Now, every time he steps into this dilapidated courtyard, he feels more guilty.
