"Father is the ruler of a country, and his words are final. Since you are going to learn the rules in the palace for a month, I think he will never do it in advance."

"But this is too long. I've only been getting started for less than half a month..."

"Why is it that my sister and the princess have such a good relationship? If you don't know, you would think you have been in this palace for a few years."

Yan Chu's good mood disappeared when she mentioned this.

Shen Zhishu was not in any mood either.

If Su Rong wasn't mentioned, she really felt like she was being pampered these days.

But her words instantly brought her back to reality.

"What are you talking about, sister? The princess and we are a family. Don't you want her to come back soon? Or... sister is worried that after the princess comes back, the prince will not come to see you?"

Liu Yunshang looked serious, but there was a hint of joking when she spoke the latter part.

She seemed to be joking.

Just like usual, he spoke his mind in front of Yan Chu, and even when he wanted to see him, he would take the initiative to go to Shen Zhishu's yard and wait.

But the atmosphere suddenly became depressing.

"I didn't mean that."

Shen Zhishu looked indifferent.

Yan Chu also kept silent.

Such a reaction was beyond Liu Yunshang's expectations.

Seeing Yan Chu’s cold face, she instantly became nervous.

"Sister, did you take it seriously? I was just joking. Your Highness should know what kind of person you are better than I do, right, Your Highness?"

She continued to laugh heartily, pretending not to understand the awkward atmosphere.

"What do you want to say?"

Unexpectedly, Yan Chu's face turned cold this time, and the look in his eyes when he looked at her was more fierce than ever before.

Liu Yunshang's heart trembled.

He immediately sat up straight in nervousness.

"I didn't want to say anything."

Her eyes were red and she looked very aggrieved, as if she couldn't understand why Yan Chu was angry.

"Since you don't want to say anything, then don't do these meaningless things in the future."

Yan Chu got very angry.

He got up and left without even finishing his meal.

In an instant, Liu Yunshang could no longer hold back her tears and couldn't stop falling.

Shen Zhishu wanted to get up and leave, but seeing that Yan Chu was upset because of Su Rong, she was afraid that he would not give him a good look if she went up to him.

So it's better to stay here.

At least I can eat a full meal before leaving.

"Are you sitting here and watching me laugh?"

Liu Yunshang couldn't stop her tears.

She cried while talking, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Shen Zhishu was no longer friendly.

At that moment, she really didn't expect it, and she didn't expect that the simple and cheerful Liu Yunshang had such a side.

"If I were you, I would also be sad and heartbroken, maybe even more so than you, so how could I laugh at you?"

"Why should I be sad? Do you think I'm the same as you?"

Shen Zhishu kindly gave advice.

Who would have thought that Liu Yunshang would become even angrier.

Just the expression at that moment gave me a feeling of déjà vu.

Looks like Su Rong.

That's what she did every time she got angry.

At this moment, Shen Zhishu looked at the angry Liu Yunshang and suddenly discovered a problem.

Standing up, her personality is very similar to Su Rong who never gets angry.

If she had not married into the palace, Su Rong in her previous life would have stayed by Yan Chu's side, carefree and innocent like this.

Doesn’t Yan Chu like Su Rong’s character of being bold and responsible and speaking her mind?

So there is her shadow on Liu Yunshang?

No wonder Yan Chu was so kind to her when they first met.

It turned out that he saw Su Rong, whom he once knew, in her.

But why am I angry tonight? And so impatient?

"You are certainly not me."

It was only later that she realized that she didn't like her.

All the intimacy in the past was just fake.

So there was no need for her to stay.

As soon as she left, Liu Yunshang endured it again and again, but finally she couldn't bear it anymore.

She swept all the food on the table to the ground, leaving it in a mess.

Shen Zhishu returned to the yard.

Yan Chu didn't come. This was probably the first time he returned to Yayuan in so many days.

It was better this way, so that he wouldn't get angry here and she would have to think of ways to cheer him up.

But it seems inappropriate to just ignore it.

Maybe he would even doubt that he didn't care about him that much.

After thinking it over, she called Biluo.

"Take the shortbread from the kitchen to the prince, and tell him to have a good rest."

As for Xiaodie, she was already resentful enough, and it was not suitable for her to do such a thing as showing courtesy to the prince. Hearing this, Biluo felt a little worried.

He nodded sullenly, but couldn't help muttering as he left.

They were fine when we went out to eat, why did they start arguing when we came back?

Shen Zhishu thought about it carefully, felt that what he did was a good idea, and went to sleep with peace of mind.

According to the usual practice, the prince would probably ignore her for a while and would not come here often.

She would also have some time to think about how to tell Yan Chu about Ting Honglou's affairs and get rid of Su Rong's power as soon as possible.

I thought for a long time and before I knew it, it was midnight.

She was feeling sleepy and was about to turn over to sleep when the door opened.

The tall figure standing at the door gave off a sense of oppression.

Shen Zhishu never expected that he would come here.

Shouldn't I be feeling upset just because of Su Rong?

Could it be that he came here specifically to cause trouble so that she could coax him?

But she is very sleepy now.

Before she could think it through, Yan Chu strode towards her, took off his clothes and lay down on the bed. She cautiously backed away.

"It's fine, what are you afraid of?"

Even this small action caused Yan Chu's dissatisfaction.

He frowned and looked at the person who was sitting on the bed, but far away from him.

What do you think I'm afraid of? Who just left with a displeased look on his face?

If you are unhappy, go home and be unhappy by yourself, don't come to harm me.

"I just thought you might need some quiet time alone."

She said one thing and meant another and forced a smile.

"You're very considerate."

Yan Chu sneered.

Then he turned his back to her and went to sleep.

He even pulled up a new quilt, which meant he would not sleep in the same bed with her anymore.

Shen Zhishu sighed secretly.

I don’t know how upset he is to come here.

But she knew very well that it was best not to say anything or do anything at this moment, and it would be best to just pretend that she didn't exist.

So she lay down carefully, trying to lie as close to him as possible, determined not to be contaminated by him in the slightest.

I didn't sleep well that night.

The next day, he went to the morning court before dawn, and Shen Zhishu got up to serve him as usual.

The two of them didn't speak, nor did they make eye contact, which was indescribably strange.

Only after the others left did Shen Zhishu breathe a sigh of relief.

I just hope he can calm down soon, otherwise I won’t have a good life either.

Yan Chu was also feeling depressed during the early morning court session and was absent-minded the entire morning.

The emperor also noticed it, so he kept him and went to the Shangshu Hall for a talk.

"Why are you so worried about Princess Qin in the palace?"
