Shen Wanqing cursed Shen Lanyue in her heart but didn't show it on her face.

Thinking that she was not really here to reminisce about the past, he turned to Xu Ziyun and said, "Sister Xu, I'm really sorry that I didn't make it to your dinner party last time."

Xu Ziyun smiled and said, "I thought it was a big deal. If there is a chance next time, Wanqing, if you want to come, I am always welcome."

"Then I thank Sister Xu very much."

"This kind of thing is naturally nothing, but I don't know if you, Wanqing, don't have time. I'm afraid you won't have time to make an appointment again in the future."

Shen Wanqing obviously liked to hear such words. She did not understand the meaning of Xu Ziyun's words and just thought she was a rare person who knew the times.

He smiled and said, "Now I have to trouble Sister Xu for something."

Xu Ziyun did not answer immediately, but there was a flash of inquiry in her eyes.

Shen Wanqing's eyes lit up with joy. She twisted the handkerchief in her hand and said, "Sister Xu has been to several banquets in the palace before. I wonder what the etiquette is like in the palace." Afraid that she wouldn't understand, she moved closer to her and asked, "What was the scene like?"

Xu Ziyun's eyes sank slightly, with a hint of contempt in them: "How would I know what's going on in the palace?"

"No, Sister Xu..."

"I'm tired, too. I'm tired of eating these fruits and snacks, so I'm going to go back first. You all will go first."

Xu Ziyun interrupted what she was about to say, stood up and said that their previous conversation was very quiet and no one else heard it.

So the others were also wondering why Xu Ziyun suddenly stood up.

"Sister Wanqing, I thought you were both beautiful and smart, but now it seems you are beautiful but not smart. You don't have to call me anymore. I dare not comment on the affairs of the palace." She said this very loudly, and at least the other ladies in the box could hear it.

All of a sudden, the lively scene froze and no one dared to speak.

Shen Wanqing didn't expect that she would say such harsh and distorted words, and she became so angry that her face turned blue.

Shen Lanyue just sat there without saying a word.

He waited until Xu Ziyun left in anger before he stood up and left.

When he walked to Shen Wanqing's side, he looked at her angry face and whispered sarcastically in her ear: "Shen Wanqing, I'm surprised that you always disdain to associate with us, but you like the position of the peak of power."

"But you know, compliments only make you feel proud."

After saying that, he straightened up, raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled at her with the corners of his mouth turned up, and left.

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

Xu Ziyun did not wait for Shen Lanyue to come out and leave together. Instead, she actually walked out of the restaurant and got into her carriage and left, as if she was really angry.

Of course, all this was part of Shen Lanyue's plan. She knew that Shen Wanqing didn't just want to show off herself, but also wanted to hear about every banquet held in the palace from other people.

The Shen family was not a famous family. It was only during Shen Ling's generation that they had some success. Naturally, they had never participated in any banquets in the palace.

Shen Wanqing wanted to do it unexpectedly well, so she had to refer to the standards inside and outside the palace, thinking that this way the nobles in the palace would also be able to see her, which was her purpose.

Shen Lanyue knew Shen Wanqing. Since her previous life, what this person wanted was the position of queen!

Doesn't she want a good reputation? I am going to give her a chance and then let her be shattered on the brink of hope, which is the greatest destructive harm to her.

He and Li Wenxuan are born the same kind of people, hypocritical and arrogant.

Shen Lanyue had not been sitting in the Marquis' Mansion for a few minutes when Meng Changce came back with some very good news for him.

It also means that Li Niang will successfully enter the Third Prince's Mansion.

Shen Lanyue dusted Meng Changce's coat herself and hung it up before asking, "Why did my husband come back so early today?"

Meng Changce watched her movements and followed her footsteps.

Seeing that she was finally done, he hugged her waist and pressed her on top of him, answering her affectionately: "I missed you."

Shen Lanyue slapped his hand in frustration and said angrily, "My husband, just keep teasing me."

"The Third Prince was assassinated on the street today, and I was sent by the Emperor to visit him."

Meng Changce then let her go, sat on the stool and poured himself a glass of water.

Shen Lanyue's eyes flashed and she sat down next to him.

"Is there something important? Why did my husband come back so early?"

"The third prince was not hurt, but..." Meng Changce glanced at her and paused deliberately.

This caused Shen Lanyue to glare at him fiercely, but when a beautiful woman glares at others, it is still beautiful to look at, her eyes and eyebrows are full of tenderness and gentleness.

Meng Changce laughed and continued, "A woman was injured. She was just passing by on the street and happened to block a fatal blow for the Third Prince. She is still in a coma."

"You have seen that woman."

"What do you think I am? Once you know, I will come back to see my own beauty."

"I was wondering if such a chivalrous woman was just a beauty, so I asked my husband." Shen Lanyue asked on purpose, of course she knew about this.

"Okay, okay." Meng Changce coaxed.

Shen Lanyue breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It seemed that the timing was right.

She also learned about their meeting from Li Niang in her previous life. It turned out that Li Niang accidentally saved Li Wenxuan once, which led to her entering the mansion and gaining favor.

This was what was supposed to happen. In her previous life, Li Niang happened to see someone assassinating Li Wenxuan while she was shopping. She had no intention of saving him, but there just happened to be a stick under her feet at that time.

Li Niang was about to run, but she slipped and just happened to block the arrow for him.

And Li Niang just happened to look 50% like Shen Wanqing. She was a beauty, lively and versatile in that aspect, and was very much liked by Li Wenxuan in the early days.

After all, this person doesn't have to worry about whether she is a rich lady or not. He can play however he wants and it can also relieve the pain of missing her.

This time, Shen Lanyue simply told Li Niang in advance to walk around that street more often during that time, so that she would have a chance to meet the Third Prince, just when they were about to meet.

The most important point is whether she is willing to risk her life to save Li Wenxuan. If she can, it will be wealth and glory. This is the temptation that Shen Lanyue gives her.

Sure enough, Li Niang still has the same personality as in her previous life. She will go in if she wants wealth and glory, and she will also owe me a favor.

Li Niang was just an ordinary peasant girl in the capital. There was nothing false about her identity. She just married into Xu's family in the past.

Every one of her conditions is complete, and nothing can be found about her.
