After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

"Hey, my master, you are finally back!"

Jinzhi wiped the sweat from her head as she spoke.

"What's wrong? I'm back, your master! Come on, Yuzhi, bring me a cup of tea. I'm dying of thirst!"

Shen Yunjin took the tea handed to him by Yuzhi and drank it all in one gulp.

"But when you went out this morning, you said you would be back in a while, but you were gone the whole day. I was afraid that something might have happened to you."

Jinzhi was about to cry when she said this.

"Alright, alright, Yuzhi, help Jinzhi up quickly. We won't do it so late next time. Today's situation is special."

"What, there will be a next time? Master, are you planning to climb over the wall?!" Jinzhi's eyes widened.

"Master, please listen to me. We will endure for another ten days and wait for the prince to come back. You can go out again. If something happens to you, how will we explain it to you?"

Jinzhi was completely panicked. She glared at Yuzhi fiercely, thinking that it was all because of this little bitch who came up with so many bad ideas.

Yuzhi shrank her shoulders. She didn't expect that her master was planning to climb over the wall to escape.

After a short rest, Shen Yunjin began to organize the decoration and business ideas of the new restaurant.

She was also planning to take some time to go and see the specific situation of the store. Today, Mrs. Wang only gave her a general idea of ​​the situation.

Shen Yunjin studied for several days in a row, and after dinner he sat at the desk to write and draw.

That day, Jinzhi couldn't bear it anymore and pulled Shen Yunjin out.

Shen Yunjin thought it would be a good idea to come out and get some fresh air. Maybe it would help him gain some fresh ideas.

The master and servant took a walk along the pond in the palace. There were trees planted beside the pond. It was very pleasant to walk under the shade of the trees and listen to the cicadas' chirping.

Only then did Shen Yunjin notice that the flowerbed in the distance was full of peonies.

"When were so many peonies planted here?" Shen Yunjin was curious.

"I heard that the princess specially asked for it from the palace." Jinzhi was also surprised. It turned out that this is how peonies bloom.

"You are really surprised by what you have never seen before. These are just ordinary peonies sold outside. The ones in the palace are all top-quality peonies."

Shen Yunjin turned around and saw that it was Concubine Shu and Concubine An.

The round-faced Lady An smiled sweetly at Shen Yunjin, half-knelt and bowed, "Sister greets Concubine Shen."

The lady Shu, who had just spoken, rolled her eyes, made a hasty gesture, and stood up.

Shen Yunjin pretended not to see it and prepared to go somewhere else for a walk.

"It's a rare opportunity for us to meet each other. Sister, please go shopping with us." Lady An timidly pulled Shen Yunjin's sleeve.

"Sister Shu and I are bored to death in the mansion every day. Sister, do you have anything new to say? Let us hear it."

"I am just like you all. I stay in the mansion every day. What new things can I expect? Why don't you tell me what new things Lady An has?"

The smile on Lady An's face froze. She thought Shen Yunjin was an easy person to get along with.

"Tsk, you hit a snag, didn't you? She's the prince's favorite, even the princess doesn't dare to mess with her, and you still dare to try to make friends with her?"

Lady Shu's sarcastic words made Lady An burst into tears.

Although they were standing in the corridor, the weather was too hot and Shen Yunjin began to feel a little irritated.

"I still need to go back and apply medicine to my hand, so I won't accompany you two."

"It's because I can't speak that I got angry. Don't blame me, Rong'er."

Lady An cried and held Shen Yunjin's hand.

Shen Yunjin's right hand was almost healed, but in order to prevent others from noticing anything, she still asked Jinzhi to wrap it with a thin layer of gauze.

She could clearly feel that An Meiren's armor was deeply dug into the back of her injured hand.

She shook her hands vigorously, and Lady An was thrown onto the stone-covered flower path.

Lady Shu was stunned and didn't react at all.

But Lady An let out a loud cry and burst into tears.

"Concubine Shen, I just pulled your hand, how could you hit me?"

"Although our status is lower than yours, we were sent here by the prince. You are slapping the prince in the face by doing this!"

"I'm going to tell the princess and ask her to give us justice!"

"Don't you know what you did? Do you want me to find someone to chop off your nails?"

Shen Yunjin pinched Lady An's chin with his left hand, stared into her eyes, and asked word by word.

Lady An subconsciously tried to dodge, but Shen Yunjin exerted force with his hands and turned her face back.

"You knew my right hand was injured, but you deliberately used your nails to dig at me. Why? Do you want to take this opportunity to destroy my hand?"

"I didn't, you slandered me!" Lady An struggled hard, trying to break free from Shen Yunjin's hand.

"No? How about I ask a doctor to take a look and see if there are any marks of your nails on my hand?"

"Or, find someone to check if there's the ointment I applied on your nails?"

Lady An stammered and was unable to speak.

"Jinzhi, slap me in the face!"

Shen Yunjin let go of Lady An.

If she didn't want to be exposed, she really wanted to slap Lady An herself.

Jinzhi slapped An Meiren in the face. An Meiren couldn't help but scream and covered her face and cried.

"Concubine Shen is so arrogant. She doesn't even take the Crown Prince seriously. Let's go."

Lady Shu supported Lady An and left in a hurry.

"Master, they must have gone to complain to the princess. What should we do?"

Jinzhi looked at Shen Yunjin worriedly.

"Let's go back first and wait for the princess to send someone to invite us."

The sun was so bright, she had no time to stay here.

Sure enough, before Shen Yunjin finished her cup of tea, Nanny Zhao came.

Madam Zhao bowed to Shen Yunjin and said sideways, "The princess wants to see you. Please come with me."

As Shen Yunjin followed Nanny Zhao into Qixia Garden, she heard crying sounds from inside.

She walked in as if she didn't notice anything, knelt down and bowed, "I pay my respects to the princess."

Ning Ruyan didn't call out, and Shen Yunjin just squatted there.

Ning Ruyan waited for a long time, and seeing that Shen Yunjin was still squatting steadily, she waved her hand unwillingly and called out.

"Concubine Shen, Lady An said that you not only pushed her to the ground, but also hit her?"

Shen Yunjin turned around and glanced at Lady An.

Lady An shrank back and continued to cry.

In just a short while, Lady An's face looked like a swollen steamed bun.

Even if Jinzhi used all her strength, she couldn't have beaten him like this.

Shen Yunjin sneered in his heart, what a good plan!
