The evil woman is arrogant and the cold emperor can't sleep at night

"There is no need to talk about this matter any more. I will never let you suffer any injustice."

The emperor spoke in a dignified voice and waved his hand for her to stand up.

The Crown Prince has already made him tired. If he really agrees to this, Minister Lin doesn't know how he will criticize him.

Shen Tangan is the only girl in the Lin family's generation. Everyone in the Lin family treats her like the apple of their eye.

"Get up quickly."

Concubine Zhen understood his implication and signaled the palace servants to help her up.

Shen Tangan knew that His Majesty would not agree. Once he agreed to this matter, it would be disregarding the reputation of the Shangshu Mansion and the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, which would be tantamount to humiliation.

Although her father was a useless man, her grandfather was different.

Your Majesty is well-known for his virtue, and bullying a minister would damage the reputation of the royal family. He has his own considerations.

She was not in a hurry. The ones who should be in a hurry were the Crown Prince and Shen Qingwan.

Since the emperor had come, Shen Tangan could not stay for long. She stood there for a while and was then sent away by Concubine Zhen with an excuse. It was obvious that the emperor had something to say to her alone.

Ever since the emperor came, Shen Tangan had been behaving timidly. Only after leaving Huayang Palace did he dare to stand up straight, and he felt refreshed.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insulted you like that, why didn't you tell His Majesty?"

Mu Tao was extremely puzzled by this. The prince was really going too far. He clearly had an engagement with her young lady, but he kept saying that his heart was with the second young lady. Where did he put his own young lady?

"Humph, we must use softness to overcome hardness. Who dares to confront the royal family head-on?"

Shen Tangan smiled faintly, pretending to be weak and vulnerable in order to contrast with the prince's dominance.

She was already at a disadvantage in this marriage, and she was up against a royal family whose life or death could be decided by a single word.

If she really doesn't want to get married, as her grandfather, he can naturally ask Your Majesty to cancel the engagement.

But if that happens, she will be the one in the wrong, and His Majesty will also think that the Lin family is disobeying His Majesty's will and will be wary of the Lin family.

If the prince advocates breaking off the engagement and does something unfair to her, then it would be the royal family that is unfair to her. She only needs to pretend to be magnanimous and understanding, and naturally there will be people with deep scheming to set off her.

Once the engagement is cancelled, the royal family should at least give her some compensation so that she can live with herself in front of the world, right?

I believe that with Shen Qingwan's ability, she will be able to make the prince disobey His Majesty for her once.

It’s just the consequence...

"Cousin An."

Just after walking out of Huayang Palace and taking two steps, he ran into the Sixth Prince Mu Qianhuan.

"cousin."

Shen Tangan nodded slightly and bowed.

She didn't really want to meet this cousin because he was as stupid as herself. She didn't know when he had secretly developed feelings for Shen Qingwan, and she took advantage of him.

Maybe this is the setting in the book, all the men around the heroine like her.

Fortunately, her brother has a gloomy personality and doesn't like his sister, let alone Shen Qingwan.

"Where is sister Wan'er? Didn't she come into the palace with you?"

Sure enough, the first question Mu Qianhuan asked when he saw her was about Shen Qingwan.

She was too stupid before and didn't realize this, so Mu Qianhuan was used by Shen Qingwan to anger the emperor, and was demoted to a commoner and exiled thousands of miles away.

My aunt was devastated by this incident and died after falling seriously ill.

The reason why all her relatives and friends left was all due to Shen Qingwan!

This time, she will definitely wake up her love brain!

"Cousin, do you have other feelings for Shen Qingwan? Every time you see me, you always ask about her. I am your real cousin, right?"

"Cousin, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Mu Qianhuan's eyes suddenly widened and he took a step back in panic. He never expected that his thoughts would be so abruptly exposed by her, and he even stuttered when speaking.

"I just asked casually. You always brought her with you when you entered the palace before. I asked you one more question today because I didn't see her. Cousin, you are really suspicious."

He was almost at a loss of what to do. He looked around but didn't dare to look at her.

It's such a pure love, but it's a pity that you chose the wrong person.

"Cousin, I just said it casually, why are you reacting so strongly?"

"me……"

He was suddenly speechless, his face turned red, and he couldn't utter a word.

Shen Tangan shook his head helplessly and patted his shoulder.

"Cousin, your brain and eyes are not in good condition. You should go see a doctor."

"how come?"

Mu Qianhuan was puzzled for a moment. The imperial physician would take the pulse of the princes in the palace every three days.

He just took his pulse yesterday and the imperial physician said he was in very good health.

"Cousin, what do you like about Shen Qingwan?"

"Cousin, you misunderstood. It's not what you think."

Mu Qianhuan waved his hands repeatedly. It was obvious that he couldn't hide anything, but he still tried his best to cover it up.

"I know, what I mean is what's so good about her, cousin?"

Seeing that he refused to admit it, Shen Tangan changed the way he asked.

"Sister Wan'er is gentle and kind, with a simple mind..."

"Okay, stop talking."

If you say it again, she will really vomit!

Does Shen Qingwan have any relationship with the person he mentioned?

"Why?"

Hearing this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. Seeing that he was so confused, a brilliant idea suddenly came to his mind.

Not only can it help himself, but it can also allow Mu Qianhuan to invisibly stop thinking about Shen Qingwan.

"Cousin, I have something important to ask for your help."

"Why do we need to use the word 'ask' between you and me? If you have anything to say, just tell me!"

When Mu Qianhuan heard this, he changed his behavior and was no longer shy. His eyes became much clearer.

Seeing his transformation, a smile flashed in Shen Tangan's eyes. In fact, her cousin was still very capable.

He is intelligent and capable in other aspects, but unfortunately he has a useless brain for love.

Shen Tangan waved away the servants from both sides, approached him and spoke in a low voice.

"Cousin, I suspect that my father has a mistress outside the mansion without my mother's knowledge. Can you help me check it out?"

"Are you serious, cousin? Did you discover something?"

Mu Qianhuan looked at her in shock, his eyes sharpening.

"It's just a suspicion at the moment, there's no substantial evidence. Cousin, please ask around in Yuxu Lane for me. If I'm not mistaken, my father probably has a child outside, maybe one that's older than me."

Shen Tangan curled his lips into a sneer. Zheng lived there before she entered the Marquis' Mansion.

Maybe they cleaned up when they left, but there's no way they wouldn't have left any traces.

As long as you go and investigate, you will definitely find clues!

"Okay, leave this matter to me, I will definitely help you investigate it clearly."

Mu Qianhuan frowned and responded, looking at her with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Cousin, don't be too sad. If there is solid evidence, I will seek justice for you and will not let them go!"

"Cousin, do you keep your word? What if you are soft-hearted?"

Shen Tangan raised his eyebrows when he heard that and looked at him with a smile.

That concubine is Shen Qingwan. How would he react if he knew the truth?

Should I cover it up for her, or seek justice for myself?

"You are my cousin, I will stand on your side!"

I didn't understand why she asked this, but I made the decision without even thinking about it.

"I hope so. If you have any clues, please tell me as soon as possible."
