She read it correctly, and she would not remember it wrongly.
The male favorite following Prince Rui was Si Nian, the sixth prince of Tianshu Kingdom. Shen Shen just glanced at him from afar, and the tea cup in her hand slipped uncontrollably.
Shen Zhiyi noticed that Prince Rui's eyes were on her, and she immediately turned her head aside to avoid attracting Prince Rui's attention.
Shen Zhiyi will never forget that Si Nian was the culprit that caused her brother's tragic defeat on the battlefield and his eventual torture to death by the enemy. This bloody feud filled her with deep-seated hatred for Si Nian.
"Miss Shen, I heard that there is a happy event in your family, and I came here to express my congratulations." Prince Rui's voice slowly sounded, "I know you were interested in my third brother, but after all, you can't force feelings. You are right. ?, Miss Shen?"
Shen Zhiyi did not dare to look at Si Nian behind him. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold back the anger and hatred in her heart and rush forward to injure the person to death.
It must not be easy for him to hide beside Prince Rui and be willing to be a male favorite. I am afraid that many officials in the court are secretly colluding with Tianshu. Dongling is already at the end of his war effort. With just one key chess piece, Dongling will be able to defeat him. Shaky.
She clenched her fists tightly and tried to calm down her emotions. She knew that now was not the time for a head-on conflict with Sinian.
Prince Rui's words made her heart tremble. She did have a crush on King Hengyuan once, but that was already in the past. Now, she only has hatred and revenge in her heart. As for King Hengyuan, she will definitely take his head with her own hands.
She took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.
"What Prince Rui said is that love cannot be forced." She replied calmly, without revealing any emotion in her tone.
Prince Rui was very sorry. It seemed that he was right that day. Maybe Shen Zhiyi really knew about Xie San's shameful things, so...
Prince Rui looked at Shen Zhiyi with a hint of evil flashing in his eyes, and seemed to be satisfied with her answer. He smiled and nodded, "As long as Miss Shen understands, I wish you everything you want."
"Send my third brother to hell as soon as possible."
The second half of King Rui's words was very soft. There were many guests coming and going. Shen Zhiyi was startled by his words. If outsiders looked like he was extremely disappointed with King Hengyuan, it would be fine, at least no one would find anything wrong. .
The person in front of me must not be simple.
Shen Zhiyi didn't speak, just lowered his head silently, but in his heart he was thinking about how to use this opportunity to get close to Si Nian and reveal his true identity. He could fake his identity and sneak into Prince Rui's side.
Either someone placed him next to King Rui, or King Rui helped him hide his true identity.
No matter what kind, those who can act like this under the eyes of the major court officials must have a lot of power in their hands. If I want to go against them, I am afraid that I will be like a needle against a wheat awn and a mantis' arm like a chariot.
The power of a woman in this world is inherently weak. If she wants to stir up a thousand waves, she must have the right time, right place, and the right people.
Shen Zhiyi almost collapsed after drinking the wedding wine, "I wonder how Prince Rui and this handsome man next to him met?" Shen Zhiyi wanted to test her tone first.
"Miss Shen, why do you ask this? I spent a lot of money on a smile to win a beauty. What? The eldest lady in the boudoir is also interested in this matter?"
Shen Zhiyi heard the sarcasm in Prince Rui's words, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry. But she knew now was not the time to have a conflict with Prince Rui.
"I'm just curious. The whole capital knows about Prince Rui's love affair, so naturally I've heard about it." Shen Zhiyi replied calmly, without revealing too much emotion in his tone.
After hearing Shen Zhiyi's words, Prince Rui had a flash of doubt in his eyes, but soon became indifferent, "Miss Shen knows a lot. However, knowing too much about some things is not good for you."
Shen Zhiyi was shocked, she heard Prince Rui's warning. But she did not flinch, "What Prince Rui said is that I am just curious. For ordinary people like me, the less we know about these things, the better."
Shen Zhiyi's heart tightened, she could hear that Prince Rui was not telling the truth.
She needs to tell her brother what's going on now as soon as possible, but if I say it so abruptly, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the bad guys, and it will be in vain to alert the snake.
Shen Zhiyi thought this and heard the sound coming from
"Governor Jiang has arrived——"
Master? What is he doing here? Master never likes to attend such banquets. When many people first sent him invitations, he basically refused them. As time passed, everyone knew that he would not come, so they didn't even bother to send out invitations.
Not only did the master come, but His Royal Highness the Regent also arrived at the scene. You know, apart from Emperor Jing's invitation, the Regent could not invite anyone.
Shen Qinghe's mouth slightly raised under his hijab when he heard the news from outside. Now that the regents are here, won't her life in the mansion go smoothly in the future? Who dares to look down on her?
Shen Zhiyi, whatever you want, I will take it from you step by step.
"Uncle Emperor," King Hengyuan stepped forward to greet him. After bowing and saluting, he invited him to the seat in advance. Unexpectedly, he was rejected. "Uncle Emperor, what do you mean?"
"I came here to take a look at my great nephew."
As soon as these words came out, the hall instantly became silent. Everyone present knew about the ambiguity between King Hengyuan and Shen Qinghe. She got pregnant out of wedlock. If Shen Qinghe was not pregnant with a prince, she would have been sentenced to a pig cage long ago.
When Shen An heard this, his face felt dull. He admitted that he had indeed neglected Shen Qinghe's discipline, which made her commit such a mistake.
Someone sneered at the old lady of the Shen family, "Look, your family is really special in love, and they are all for King Hengyuan. Earlier, that Shen Zhiyi of your family would die if he followed King Hengyuan. If you want to live, now another concubine has come to throw yourself into your arms."
"Their second wife has long since severed ties with our family. Where are our Shen family members?"
"I forgot that the old lady and the second lady next to me were thrown out like dogs by the governor."
After saying that, the laughter became more and more wild. The one who laughed at them was the eldest lady of the Jiang family. She had always disliked Shen Zhiyi's behavior. She originally thought that she was a general's daughter who had some backbone, but she was put in the capital by Mrs. Shen. Raised a straw bag.
But now this King Hengyuan, who is famous all over the capital, is the most promising of His Majesty's nine children to win the throne. Now that he is married, if he becomes the empress of the palace, how could such luck fall on that idiot in the first place? On Shen Zhiyi! Later, he was picked up by the shameless Shen Qinghe!
However, their family has been divided into clans, and their power is naturally divided. Shen An is in charge of the army and seems to be the most powerful person in the Shen family. Without Shen Hong, the God of Wealth, it will be difficult for them to rebel with their little salary.
Xie Shaoheng looked at Shen Zhiyi standing next to Jiang Yubai, and felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, as if he owed her something in his previous life.
Xie Shaoheng froze on the spot and called softly: "Zhiyi?"
Shen Zhiyi didn't look at her. This "Zhiyi" sound seemed ridiculous, "Brother-in-law, why did you call me?"
Brother-in-law? Now Zhiyi is so interested in him.
It turned out that the former childhood sweetheart could only look at her twice. Xie Shaoheng couldn't help but laugh at herself. She caught a glimpse of Shen Zhiyi who didn't even want to cast his eyes on her. She used to always like to follow her, and she planted several plants in the backyard. White camellia, all because she said she "liked it" when she was a child.
She always held up a delicate white camellia. She said that she liked the proudness of the camellia the most, and would rather die with her head cut off than wither.
At that time, when she looked at the white camellia, she would always look at her with a smile on her face, but now her eyes looked at her without any emotion, even with contempt.
The people around saw the two standing there, with the cold-faced governor standing next to them, and couldn't help but feel a little bit creepy. The general's legitimate daughter who used to be hot-faced and cold-hearted to him is now treating him coldly, which makes it uncomfortable for everyone.
What's more, Xie Shaoheng is such a proud person.
Looking at Shen Zhiyi's appearance, your concubine wanted to go up and tear her to pieces. Who is she who dares to show off to her son? She will make her look good when she finds the opportunity in the future!
Shen Hong couldn't help frowning from a distance. Now that the situation was not good for him, Shen Zhiyi, that bitch, suddenly changed his temper. It was difficult to control, and he might be bitten back, and it would be unreasonable.
If he wants to completely control the treasury, it is definitely not enough to rely on the things behind his back. Although Prince Rui helps him, Prince Rui will inevitably open his mouth when the lion opens his mouth, which is a bottomless pit.
Originally, I wanted Shen Qinghe to recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, so what if he risked his old face? What does face mean in front of the powerful? His mother only cares about face because she has a good reputation and can make money faster.
Shen Hongcai would spare no effort to please the powerful, and he would not hesitate to push his daughter out for marriage and become a pawn for the royal family. It's a pity that Shen Runxue died, so this matter can only be left to Shen Qinghe, the outsider.
She does have a useless third daughter who just sits in the backyard and becomes a loser!
Now that Shen Qinghe is still in the name of his second brother, Shen Qinghe is also in a dilemma. She is a bitch. It is absolutely impossible for her to recognize her ancestors and return to the clan without conclusive evidence. She married into Hengyuan Prince's Palace and thought that her wings were strong. Can I, Shen Hong, not be able to deal with her?
What if Shen Runxue is no longer a chess piece? In Shen Hong's opinion, it was just a loss of money.
Shen Hong came to see Shen Qinghe while no one was paying attention. Shen Qinghe heard the footsteps and thought it was the prince who was back.
When he opened his hijab, he found it was Shen Hong, "Uncle?"
"Huh," Shen Hong was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He was pretending to be in front of him because he thought he couldn't see it. He is an old man and can't see this trick, so his life was really in vain!
"You must have read the letter your mother left for you, but you still call me uncle? Shen Qinghe, I'm warning you, don't be ungrateful. I don't like disobedient things."
Shen Qinghe naturally read those letters, which clearly stated that she was the uncle's daughter. Back then, her mother was defiled by Shen Hong and was forced to stay in the Shen Mansion. She originally wanted to die, but she was pregnant with Qinghe, so she couldn't bear it. The little life in the belly.
He followed Shen Hong's advice and married Shen An. At that time, Shen Hong couldn't bear to see Shen An swearing in front of everyone that Xiang Jinzhu was the only one in his life.
It's really ridiculous that there is no man who doesn't care. Why should he be reviled by the world, while he, Shen An, should be sought after by the world?
He wanted to pull Shen An, a good brother, from the altar. He was not his mother's biological son, so the old lady would not think about him. Shen Yan also knew about it. In the end, Shen An's oath really became the capital of Beijing. The biggest joke.
Not marrying only one person is not taking concubines and giving birth to children.
"I don't understand what uncle is talking about?" Shen Qinghe was unwilling to give in and wanted to test Shen Hong's tone. If he refused to admit it, Shen Hong would not be able to do anything to him.
"You think I don't know about you secretly buying land and house deeds in the suburbs? Qinghe, you are my daughter, I know you too well." Shen Hong looked at Shen Qinghe with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"If you listen to me obediently, not only the power of King Hengyuan will be against you, but you will also be able to use the power of Prince Rui's Mansion. You have come to my study before, and you should know that I cooperate with Prince Rui."
King Rui...
Shen Qinghe recalled quickly in her mind. She remembered that she had been to Shen Hong's study and indeed saw the correspondence between him and Prince Rui. It would be great if he could get help from Prince Rui, but right now his father is a time bomb.
"Father, since I am your daughter, I will naturally think about my father. Since I have married into Hengyuan Mansion, it will be convenient for me to enter and leave the house in the future. If my father does not mind, my daughter is willing to serve her father."
Shen Qinghe's words moved Shen Hong's heart. He knew that although his daughter was usually a bit delicate, her blood still flowed in her bones.
"If it weren't for the two brothers Shen Zhiyi and Shen Zhiyun, I would have wanted to know you a long time ago. You know, I was the one who sent your mother off for the last time, and I also took care of your mother's affairs. Why shouldn't I? I love my daughter."
She naturally knew that Shen Zhiyi deserved to die, but his father was not necessarily a thing, he was just a little witch.
Now she has to think carefully about how to deal with this bitch Shen Zhiyi! Since you have ruined my reputation, I will give you a ride.
Shen Hongquan thought that Qinghe was just trying to show off his petty temper, so he laughed a few words and asked him to have a good rest. Chuntao, as her dowry maid, was naturally quite pretty. At this moment, she was taking a lot of fruits from the kitchen to deliver to the lady. room.
Just hearing these words, Chuntao hurriedly found a hiding place to hide herself. She knew that she was just a servant. If she knew the secret of her master's family, her life would definitely not be easy in the future.
The most direct way is to turn you into a dead person and then keep this secret forever.
Her heart ached terribly. Shen Qinghe had been angry with her these days. Shen Qinghe had always been arrogant. If she found out that a servant knew this, Chuntao would definitely not survive.
After waiting for a while, Chuntao took the fruits and brought them in to Shen Qinghe. "Miss..." Chuntao called softly, not daring to disturb her.
Shen Qinghe turned around suddenly and looked at Chuntao with cold and terrifying eyes, "Bring the things."
Chuntao responded shakily and carefully took out a cloth bag from her arms. Shen Qinghe took the cloth bag and opened it. Inside was a long whip with barbs engraved on the whip. It was obviously no ordinary whip.
This was what Shen Qinghe had specially customized in the blacksmith shop next door after he pawned Shen Zhiyi's jewelry. She originally planned to use this whip against Shen Zhiyi, but she never found a suitable opportunity.
During these days, I would first test the waters with her, a servant.
Chuntao knelt there tremblingly and heard Shen Qinghe sigh, "What a pity", "Today is my special day and it's not easy to see blood. You can go back."
