The prince can read minds! I just want to be a princess and have a bad time
Chapter 69: Entering the Palace for a Banquet (2)
"How dare you! You, the second daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, dare to question the affairs of the eldest daughter of the Shangshu Mansion?" Ye Muan retorted righteously, but was pulled back by Madam Ye imperceptibly. Shen Yu gave the ladies a comforting look and turned to look at Shen Yue.
Tsk! This is interesting. She said on that day that after the dowry was recovered, she would take it to Zhenbaozhai for public auction. Her original intention was to force them to secretly buy back the dowry at a high price.
But from what she said, Lord Shen was planning to cut off the source of the trouble? He was planning to hold a fake auction in private and then just randomly say the total amount? He was planning to buy grain and donate it to Prince Zhuo's Mansion in the name of the Shen Mansion? ?
I was naive. The old ones are the wisest. In terms of shamelessness, I believe that no one in the entire Linyue Kingdom can rival Shen Nian. Even Lu Yingxing has to admit defeat! !
In this way, there is no need to find a dowry, and the auction amount is up to him. There is also the purchase of grain for donation? Haha! There is more room for maneuver here. It is not enough to cheat her once, but he wants to make another fortune and do charity in the name of donating grain from the Shen Mansion? Gain both fame and fortune?
Great! Really great! Someone who can become the Minister of Revenue is really not simple! ! I'll tell you, in terms of political schemes, they can't beat the ancients! !
But Shen Nian dared to step on her door like this. Was he too confident in her character? Did he think she wouldn't bite back? Did he think she would swallow her anger? Really, she didn't even believe it!
After figuring out the key, he looked up, glared at Shen Yue and said, "Cousin, you are so arrogant! If you don't know, you would think you are Lord Shen's biological daughter! Nanny Zhang is the prince's person. How can you, a cousin of the Shen family, have the face to question the people of Zhuo Wangfu on behalf of the Shen family? You have learned the trick of bullying from your mother. Who gave you the courage to auction the dowry of my Zhuo Wangfu privately?"
She was full of aura, took a step forward and sneered, "Don't say that it was my father, Lord Shen, who was behind this! Do you think that calling your cousin-in-law "Dad"? If you call him that a few times, he will really become your real dad? Don't forget, I am Lord Shen's biological daughter. I believe he can still tell the difference between close and distant relatives!! Besides... he only married your mother against his will so that my mother could rest in peace. Who in Luocheng doesn't know this? He married your mother only because of my mother's last wish! He said in person that my mother is the only woman he has ever loved in his life. If that's the case, how could my father auction off my mother's dowry without authorization?"
The surroundings instantly became quiet, Shen Yue's face was extremely ugly, even the sisters around her quietly retreated a few steps away from her, while Aunt He and other noble ladies surrounded Shen Yu. This mother and daughter were so shameless! !
Shen Yue was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, and she looked so pitiful, "Sister, I... I know I can't beat you. Ever since I caught you and cousin Zhang secretly giving gifts in the temple, you have been targeting me everywhere. But I am the daughter acknowledged by Daddy himself. You... You say this to me, I won't live anymore! Wuuuuuuuu!"
After saying that, he really wanted to pretend to jump into the lake... Of course, someone would stop him.
Shen Yue's logic is online this time, her acting is coherent, and her fighting ability has obviously improved. It seems that she has received special training? And Lord Shen... If there is no one backing them up, they will never dare to openly oppose Zhuo Wangfu. Who is it? The emperor?
Just as Shen Yu was about to perform, a somewhat sharp voice rang out, "The Queen Mother has arrived! The Queen has arrived! The Second Princess has arrived!"
A group of people entered the imperial garden in a mighty procession, along with three young girls. The second princess walked last, and the other two were equally beautiful. One wore moon-white clothes and supported the empress dowager, while the other wore a water-red dress and followed the queen.
Although she couldn't see her face clearly, she guessed that the one in red was the heroine of the original book!
Shen Yu was so nervous that his palms were sweating. He had read many time-travel novels before, especially those with built-in systems. The books would remind the protagonist not to confront the heroine of the original book head-on. She was the daughter of the Heavenly Dao. If he went against her, he would be struck by lightning, and even this plane world might collapse! !
Although she is not sure if her current situation is the same, but time travel is time travel, and Shen Yu doesn't dare to gamble. She has been avoiding the heroine for fear of failure. Now, she has married Lu Yingxing and has to face the heroine directly!
"Stand up!" The Queen Mother's voice gave people a kind of familiarity. It was obvious that she was a veteran in palace fighting. "This is... Minister Shen's daughter, right? Why is she crying like this? What happened?"
After hearing this, Shen Yue cried even more sincerely, her whole body trembling, "Replying to the Queen Mother... No, Yue'er is fine, no one... No one bullies Yue'er... Wuuuuuu."
What else does Shen Yu not understand? She rolled her eyes silently in her heart. Come on, it's for her. Shen Yue is the Queen Mother's person.
It's a common plot in palace fighting dramas. Throw out a lead, and then a person of high status comes and finds a reason to punish her. After all, we are a generation of viewers who grew up watching palace fighting dramas... This trick has been used to death by the likes of Huan Huan, okay?
He looked at the empress dowager silently, and sure enough, the one who gave birth to such a handsome uncle as the emperor must have been a great beauty. Although the years have left traces on her face, it only highlights her elegance and temperament. Her phoenix eyes are long and charming. Unlike the empress, she does not give people the majesty of a superior, but instead looks like a kind old lady.
But whoever believes it is a fool!
Sure enough, the next sentence she said was, "Just tell me, who dares to be so presumptuous at the Queen's Spring Flower Banquet? No matter who it is, I will take care of you."
Shen Yue was just crying when an angry voice sounded beside her, "The Queen Mother, it's Princess Zhuo! She was caught in the temple with her cousin by Sister Shen...so she has been targeting her!" The strange girl in red clothes spoke up for Shen Yue, making Shen Yu wonder, is she really so unlucky?
As expected, the white lotus Ma Biyun performed the tea ceremony again. "Maybe there is a misunderstanding?"
"Young lady, please be careful with your words. Princess Zhuo's reputation cannot be slandered with just a few words," Nanny Zhang, an old member of the Zhuo Palace, spoke up firmly to defend her, but was stopped by Shen Yu with a shake of her head.
The Queen Mother's eyes were like knives, "Princess Zhuo! Is this true?" Shen Yu read from her eyes...excited? Crazy! Like to catch adultery?
After this question, everyone present focused their attention back on Shen Yu, including Xu Yaying.
She was secretly peeking at the heroine of the original book, who had a small and delicate face, fair and delicate skin, and charming eyes. It was a face that was beautiful and aggressive, but... there was always a familiar sense of incongruity in her clear eyes and the curve of her smile.
He quickly retracted his gaze and said calmly, "My Queen Mother, I didn't!"
The ladies were all stunned. Madam Ye was so anxious that she shouted for speed. Wouldn't she defend herself again? A woman's reputation was a matter of great importance, and she just said... No? ?
