After being a patient in the mansion for a long time, Shen Lanyue finally learned that the matter about the Meng family was false, but she also found out some other things.

At the same time, the Meng family also handed over the only remaining military power in their hands to the current emperor to show that they had no such intention.

When the imperial edict arrived there, the Meng family not only handed over their military power, but also sent a young man to the capital to take up the post.

In name, he was going to the capital to take up a post, but in reality, he was sent to the capital as a hostage. Everyone knew it, but no one dared to say it out loud.

However, Meng Changce, a member of the Meng family, was beyond everyone's expectations. Not only did he not receive any punishment from the current emperor, but he was promoted to a higher level.

Now people in the capital were talking about it, saying that Meng Changce was really favored by the emperor. At the same time, the fourth prince, who usually did not show off his talents, stood out in this investigation, and the emperor specially handed over the affairs of the Ministry of Rites to him.

The third prince, who usually stole the limelight, was suddenly ordered to reflect on his mistakes in his palace for a month.

In the imperial city, court officials walked beside the fourth prince Li Jing to congratulate and compliment him.

"Congratulations, Your Highness!"

"No, no, I'll have to trouble you, Lord Li, later."

"congratulations……"

Li Wenxuan stood not far away and watched those old bastards surrounding Li Jing one by one. He was so angry that he bit his back teeth and his whole face looked gloomy.

"Third Prince, there is no need to worry. There is a long way to go." Zhu Ji looked at his nephew who looked unhappy, sighed and comforted him.

Li Wenxuan glanced at his uncle, turned his sleeves and left without even looking at the group of people.

He really didn't expect that this time, since it was a show between his father and Meng Changce, what would depend on was their sincerity. The emperor had reached this age, and his control over power had reached its peak.

He would never allow his sons to have such thoughts at all, even if he knew that he would hand over the position to them in the end, he would not allow his sons to have such thoughts now.

What he could not have expected the most was that this time the fourth brother's investigation would please his father so much. It turned out that the emperor was not really looking for evidence of the Meng family's military power, but wanted a reason to take back the remaining military power of the Meng family.

He had taken the wrong path from the very beginning, and he absolutely did not believe that the fourth brother was on the same path as him. He just didn't know whether Meng Changce had already stood on the side of the fourth brother.

But this was a setup by my father. How could Meng Changce possibly and dared to tell the fourth brother about it?

This is why he is unwilling!

He was really afraid that his father favored the fourth son. Who in this world doesn't want power and to be in the highest position?

-------------------------------------

“This is still good news.”

Shen Lanyue smiled and handed the kettle in her hand to Fanfan, wiped her palms carefully with a handkerchief, and turned to look at her confusedly.

Fanfan held the kettle and said, "I don't understand."

Shen Lanyue was in a good mood and immediately had an appetite. She picked up a piece of cake on the table and put it into her mouth and said, "Isn't it the Third Prince that Shen Wanqing relies on the most? Isn't this good news for us?"

Fan Fan suddenly came to his senses with enlightenment.

"Yes, from this point of view, she has nothing to be proud of."

Shen Lanyue looked at her happy and silly face with a smile, and couldn't bear to break her good mood.

It was just a punishment of confinement for a month, not real loss of power. As long as Li Wenxuan was alive, Shen Wanqing would not really fall.

As for other men, most of them love her beauty, but she doesn't care much.

And...Meng Changce, Shen Lanyue was a little unable to guess his true thoughts. After spending these days together, she had gradually realized that Meng Changce did not like Shen Wanqing as much as he seemed.

It seems more like a casual performance.

The reason why she was uncertain was that in her previous life, Meng Changce finally brought Shen Wanqing back to his house, and then he didn't know any news about her until his death.

Anyway, before he died, I heard that he was living well in the Regent's Palace.

Shen Lanyue shook her head and drove these thoughts out of her mind. There was no point thinking about them now. As long as she was alive, Shen Wanqing would never step through this door.

"Will the Marquis come tonight?" Fanfan saw that his young lady looked well, so he asked carefully.

"?"

"Isn't the Marquis okay?" Fanfan was really worried. The Marquis hadn't come for a long time. "And he got promoted. Will he not be angry with the Madam?"

Without knowing what had happened, the young lady was put under house arrest. She was really worried every hour these days.

Shen Lanyue laughed out loud. She actually forgot that she had not told Fanfan that she had been so cautious these days because she was afraid that she would get angry.

"It should come."

"That's great."

Fanfan was really excited now, "Madam, I'll ask someone to prepare what the Marquis likes to eat." After saying that, he ran over with a kettle.

Shen Lanyue didn't have time to shout and could only helplessly watch her back as she left happily.

At night, Meng Changce really came to Shen Lanyue's yard as she said. At this moment, every servant in the yard was happy and acted very carefully for fear of making the Marquis unhappy.

After finishing dinner, the two did not rush to bed. Instead, one read a book while the other lay on his lap with his eyes closed to rest.

Shen Lanyue was reading a book. Meng Changce crossed his arms and buried his head on Shen Lanyue's belly to rest. His breath sprayed on her belly, which was actually very itchy, but Shen Lanyue felt that they were extremely close at this moment.

It was more intimate than that, so she endured it.

Shen Lanyue looked at him motionlessly and lost interest in reading. Seeing his long black hair scattered on her legs, she was attracted and touched it unconsciously with her fingers.

When he didn't respond, she twirled a lock of his hair between her fingers, her entire brow unconsciously raised, her heart pounding.

She had never felt this way before, but she felt happy.

"Is it fun?" Meng Changce's voice came from her belly, buzzing and hoarse through the cloth.

"Ok?"

Shen Lanyue looked down at him, and just in time he looked up, their eyes met, and she saw the smile in his eyes.

His hands slowly wrapped around her waist, which immediately made her panic and her hands and feet became a little unnatural, but he just smiled and looked at her.

The next second, she watched Meng Changce raise his body, rub one hand on her lower back, and slowly press the back of her head with the other hand to push her down a little.

They were so close to each other that Shen Lanyue heard someone's heartbeat. Her mind was blank and she could only look into his eyes and feel the heat of his breath on her skin.

When she came back to her senses, she felt his kiss on her lips, becoming hotter and stronger with each step, and she was trapped in his grasp, attacking every inch more and more forcefully.

It's between lips that can't be contained.
