As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

Shen Lanyue and Meng Changce now have a harmonious yet strange way of getting along. The relationship between them seems the same yet different from before, which makes Fanfan anxious.

But she didn't understand what was wrong, and she didn't want to remind the lady because in her eyes the lady seemed very satisfied with this atmosphere.

Just like what is happening right now, the lady is quietly reading a book under a tree in the yard, while the marquis is lying on the recliner that the lady set up when she is free, closing his eyes and resting.

The atmosphere between the two was extremely harmonious. The Marquis would sometimes open his eyes and glance at his wife, or the two would smile at each other, and then go about their own business.

Shen Lanyue had no idea what he was doing recently. He actually liked to lie on his favorite chair in his own yard and eat his favorite food.

Shen Lanyue was confused by his unusual behavior and could only look at him with a strange expression.

"Is the Marquis not busy recently?"

Meng Changce hadn't fallen asleep to begin with, so he asked her, "Why do you feel that way?"

Shen Lanyue rolled her eyes behind the cover of a book.

"Of course. Usually at this time, the Marquis is busy outside, but recently he has been interested in staying with Lan Yue. Naturally, he is curious."

Meng Changce seemed to be struck by her words for a moment. He turned over and looked at her, with one hand behind his head, staring at Shen Lanyue's face with ambiguous and frivolous eyes.

"It turns out that Madam knows that I came here specially to accompany you." Meng Changce pronounced the word "Madam" very lightly, as if he was holding it in his mouth.

Shen Lanyue looked at him with a forced smile, and complained in her heart: Now he really looks like a dandy and dishonest young man.

"If the Marquis is making fun of me, then you can just lie here alone. I'll go into the house first." Shen Lanyue gave him a coquettish look.

To be honest, Meng Changce was really charmed by her. After all, when Shen Lanyue didn't use any tricks, she still pleased him very much. For example, her appearance was actually in line with his aesthetic taste.

He is not a man who loves beauty. Shen Wanqing is beautiful, but her beauty is soulless, like a fake shell.

Only someone like Shen Lanyue who possesses a deadly soul can attract Meng Changce's attention. He originally lived in a dark swamp and did not like the white lotus at all.

Instead, he prefers the roses that grow on the cliff like him.

Shen Lanyue just met this requirement, so he liked her a little bit or didn't want her to disappear from his sight right now.

That's why she killed the man and solved her worries. Unfortunately, she seemed to have discovered this and misunderstood it, and the relationship between the two once again became as perfunctory as the days of their wedding.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I really don't have much to do in the court. But there is an interesting thing recently. I wonder if Madam is interested."

Meng Changce suppressed the metaphor in his eyes for a moment, narrowed his eyes, stood up and pulled Shen Lanyue over. He grasped her slender waist, and held her tightly on his lap as she gasped.

Shen Lanyue: ...

"My Lord, please speak." Shen Lanyue could only hold his neck to prevent herself from falling. Her cheeks became rosy in an instant because of his breathing, and her eyebrows and eyes were as bright and clear as the crescent moon.

Meng Changce just leaned closer to her cheek and chuckled, very satisfied with Shen Lanyue's reaction. He intimately pressed his forehead against hers, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"There will be a banquet tomorrow. It is a poetry gathering specially held by a noble family in the capital."

Shen Lanyue looked at him to ask what he meant.

Meng Changce smiled and continued, "This is not the key point. The key point is that Zheng Chengsi will attend this banquet. This is his first time attending an event since returning to Beijing. Don't you think it's interesting?"

Shen Lanyue was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

Mainly because he was too close, most of his hair was tangled with hers in the sunlight, and she couldn't tell who was who. What made her even more dizzy was that in his arms, she could see that Fanfan, who had originally lost hope in life, now had a red face and was standing in the distance with his head down.

My head is about to smoke.

She felt like her head was about to smoke!

Meng Changce seemed to suddenly realize that Shen Lanyue's mind might not be on this, and he laughed even more wantonly. He rubbed Shen Lanyue's nose tip affectionately with his tall nose bridge, with obvious teasing in his eyes.

Shen Lanyue's reaction was very strong. She jumped off Meng Changce's body with too much force. Her ears, as delicate as white jade, were all red, and her fingers were grasping the corner of her clothes even more tightly.

"My Lord!" He shouted with a hint of anger and shame.

Meng Changce touched his nose, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, knowing that he could not joke anymore.

I'm going to really make her angry soon, so I'd better stop while I'm ahead.

"You seem to be bored these days, why don't you go out and relax? Come with me tomorrow."

Shen Lanyue walked a few steps away from him and nodded. She was a little surprised. She was just thinking about how to have the chance to meet Zheng Chengsi, and then the opportunity came.

Meng Changce didn't want to make it too excessive. After seeing her standing further away, he just smiled and took the book she had put aside to take a look.

I saw a hint of smile in his cunning eyes.

Shen Lanyue felt that today was not a suitable day to spend time with him, because the book was a play script that Ziyun had sent to her specifically for her to read.

However, all the servants in the courtyard had happy expressions on their faces. Seeing that the Marquis and his wife got along well, they would naturally be able to live a better life.

……

When Meng Changce went to take a bath after dinner, Shen Lanyue specifically asked Fanfan to reveal the news to Qiuyu in the outer courtyard, and the obvious meaning was to pass it on to Shen Wanqing.

Shen Lanyue knew that Shen Wanqing had been looking for an opportunity to meet Zheng Chengsi. Now that she had this opportunity, Shen Wanqing would definitely not let it go. As for how she would get someone to take her there, that was up to her.

After receiving the news from Qiuyu, Shen Wanqing was indeed very happy, just as Shen Lanyue had expected.

After just one look at Xiping, she knew that she couldn't ask Li Wenxuan to take her there, because he would definitely not take her there now, as he had not yet married Sun Shuhao.

Naturally, I will bring Sun Shuhao to the banquet this time, so who should I look for so as not to appear deliberate?

Shen Wanqing paced back and forth anxiously in the room. Suddenly, she stopped and a person appeared in her mind.

She called Xiping up, whispered a few words in her ear, and then smiled triumphantly.

This banquet was specially arranged by the Fourth Prince, mainly to give face to his cousin. Of course, even if it didn't rely on him, Zheng Chengsi would have a lot of face now.

However, Zheng Chengsi would naturally give this opportunity to the Fourth Prince. After all, he had to stand on Li Jing's side now. They were all smart people and knew how to behave.
