When she thought of how she had always been so devoted in front of her, slandering her everywhere in private, and having a secret affair with her adopted sister, what was even more irritating was that she blamed Xiao Jingzhi, the king of war, for her brother's death.
Suddenly, the strong hatred in my heart made people feel suffocated.
Song Xiuche did not expect Shen Yunshu to react like this, and the situation became extremely embarrassing.
He stared at Shen Yunshu in confusion and asked gently: "Shu'er, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Yunshu's cold eyes fell on Song Xiuche, and his cold voice reached his ears, "His Royal Highness, you are well."
They had met yesterday, how could they be safe?
Song Xiuche was even more puzzled by this, and felt that Shen Yunshu was too abnormal.
Mother Liu also sensed something was wrong and stepped forward to reassure: "The prince's birthday banquet is about to begin, we'd better go there first."
However, Song Xiuche recalled the look in Shen Yunshu's eyes when he looked at him just now. On the one hand, he felt guilty that Shen Yunshu knew what he was planning, but on the other hand, he firmly believed that Shen Qingyin would not betray him.
The birthday banquet officially began and the guests took their seats one after another.
After everyone congratulated King Qi, his old friend King Qi took the opportunity to talk about Song Xiuche's marriage.
"The prince is as gentle as jade and has a talented appearance. I guess the prince has never worried about the matter of marriage."
"I heard that General Shen's daughter and his son are in love and will get married soon. Is it true?"
Of course, what everyone is more concerned about is that the Qi Prince's Palace has good relations with the highly respected General's Palace. The situation in the DPRK and China will definitely change greatly.
In this case, they also have to consider their current position in the court.
King Qi knew what everyone was thinking, so he smiled and called Song Xiuche to his side, "Since the elders are so concerned about your marriage, let's take the opportunity to talk to everyone."
This matter was more convincing when it came from Song Xiuche's own mouth, not to mention that Shen Yunshu was also present.
Song Xiuche bowed politely to everyone, and then looked at Shen Yunshu not far away.
Shen Yunshu knew that Song Xiuche would propose to her at the birthday banquet of King Qi in his previous life, but this time she would never make the same mistake again.
She directly ignored Song Xiuche who was smiling at her, walked up to Prince Qi, and said, "My little daughter has something to ask of your Majesty."
Hearing this, everyone cast curious glances.
King Qi still had a smile on his face, "Anything that can be fulfilled or not, just ask Shu Yatou."
Just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, Shen Yunshu spoke, which suddenly turned the originally lively scene into silence.
"My younger sister Qingyin has been in love with the prince for a long time. However, my younger sister feels inferior because she is just the adopted daughter of the general's palace and dare not express her feelings. In addition, my younger sister is too slow to notice it earlier, which almost broke up a good marriage. So now It’s not too late, I hope the prince will make your son and sister happy.”
After hearing Shen Yunshu's passionate words, King Qi's face immediately sank.
Song Xiuche never expected that Shen Yunshu already knew about what happened between him and Shen Qingyin. He was caught off guard and didn't know how to deal with it.
"My little girl had a cold yesterday and hasn't recovered yet. She said nonsense. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Shen Chenghai hurriedly stepped forward, pulled Shen Yunshu behind him, and apologized to King Qi.
As soon as he finished speaking, the boy outside the door came to report that the King of War was here.
Xiao Jingzhi?
Daqing's current sage, Yao Di, has great military exploits, but is known as a ruthless and ruthless demon king. He has never appeared on such an occasion, so how could he come today?
Shen Yunshu didn't understand it before, but now she knows that maybe Xiao Jingzhi's arrival was to prevent her marriage to Song Xiuche.
"Why, you don't recognize me anymore?" Xiao Jingzhi walked up to Song Xiuche with a cold expression.
Song Xiuche reluctantly saluted and said, "I've met the emperor."
He was similar in age to Xiao Jingzhi, and was higher in seniority than him, so it was inevitable that he felt a little uncomfortable.
At this time, King Qi had already stood up and walked over. He smiled lovingly and said, "I didn't expect that King War could take time out of his busy schedule to come to attend my birthday banquet. It is really an honor."
Xiao Jingzhi then sat down next to King Qi, his handsome and cold face still showing no expression.
"Where was everyone talking about just now?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Finally, Lieutenant General Yang, who had followed King Qi for many years, slowly said, "It's just a few jokes from a few children to congratulate the prince on his birthday."
Xiao Jingzhi lowered her eyes, "Oh, really?"
This statement may seem simple, but its profound meaning is difficult to fathom.
The purpose of Xiao Jing's previous visit was even more unknown.
When the birthday banquet was coming to an end, Zuo Huaian, the son of Prime Minister Zuo, took the opportunity to come to Xiao Jingzhi's side.
He couldn't help but joke, "You and Miss Shen are childhood sweethearts. Now she is going to be married. How do you feel about her?"
Xiao Jingzhi's expression was cold, solemn and as if he was deliberately emphasizing, "We are not familiar with each other!"
"It's because you're not familiar with her, that is, you accidentally hurt her a few times." Zuo Huaian started to get angry, "I heard that Prince Qi saved Miss Shen's life, and I fell in love with him at first glance. I think this fate is really wonderful. .”
Xiao Jingzhi's face darkened a bit, and her tone was cold, "I have never heard that this marriage has happened."
Zuo Huaian asked with a smile: "Are you so sure?"
Xiao Jingzhi didn't answer, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Help, help..."
At this time, a cry for help came from the direction of the back garden.
When the guests from the front yard arrived, Shen Qingyin, who had been besieged by bees, had already been taken away by the maid.
In her previous life, Shen Yunshu was wearing the same clothes that Shen Qingyin was wearing. Xia Yu had tampered with her and was so besieged by bees that she was almost disfigured and lost all face.
What Shen Qingyin is suffering now is just treating him in his own way.
While everyone was discussing what happened just now, only Xiao Jingzhi's eyes were on Shen Yunshu.
For a moment, he actually saw an unprecedented pleasure on Shen Yunshu's face.
Could it be...
"Is the prince looking at me?"
Xiao Jingzhi stared coldly at the beautiful but poisonous Shen Yunshu who was walking towards him. She suddenly felt a little strange, but at the same time she felt that this should be her, Shen Yunshu!
There was no expression on his face. After a moment of silence, he turned around indifferently.
"Your Majesty has hurt me so many times. Could it be that he just can't let it go?" Shen Yunshu's clear and sweet voice came from behind.
Xiao Jingzhi stopped. He thought that Shen Yunshu never knew that it was him who caused her injury. Unexpectedly, Shen Yunshu just pretended not to know.
But before he could say anything, Shen Yunshu came up to him, and the distance between the two of them was less than two inches.
When their eyes met, Shen Yunshu, who was equally nervous, caught a flash of panic in Xiao Jingzhi's eyes. She smiled like a flower and said: "Your Highness, please marry me!"
