After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

"Mommy."

The palace maids who were checking had finished and they called out "Madame Qian".

Nanny Qian came to her senses and saw that several people were already dressed.

Looking at the eldest daughter of the Shen family, her appearance is indeed not as good as that of the second daughter of the Shen family.

Looking at this outfit, it seems even more rustic.

Perhaps the Queen will feel a little better after seeing this.

"In that case, let's go into the palace."

Several people walked out of the small house and followed Nanny Qian into the harem.

The harem was so large that Shen Jinyao had the illusion that she was the only one around.

After walking for half an hour, Nanny Shen stopped.

She turned around and said to Shen Jinyao with a smile, "Miss Shen, please wait here. I will report to the Queen right away."

Shen Jinyao nodded in agreement.

Nanny Shen glanced at Shen Jinyao again, then took two quick steps into the house.

Shen Jinyao was not familiar with the imperial palace, but the sound of talking coming from the main hall kept coming, so Shen Jinyao knew what was there.

Even Nanny Li beside her couldn't help but frown.

"Miss, this is..."

Isn’t this where the Queen Mother handles harem affairs?

Aren’t they going to the side hall of the Empress’ Palace?

How did you get here?

The voices inside were calling her "Empress," "Noble Lady," "Royal Noble Consort," and then this concubine and that concubine.

What else doesn't Shen Jinyao understand?

Isn't this the place where the Queen Mother receives greetings from the beauties in the harem according to legend?

There were intermittent sounds of quarreling inside.

The word that appeared most frequently in the quarrel was "Emperor".

Palace fighting dramas were very popular in Shen Jinyao's dynasty, and Shen Jinyao was not surprised by these.

But the nanny must have brought her here on purpose.

As for why she did this, it must have been instructed by the Queen.

The Queen doesn't want her to keep a low profile.

He insisted on leaving her here to endure the contempt of the concubines in the harem.

A voice came from inside, "I'm hungry, let's go."

Then I heard someone in the distance say "Let's go", and I thought it was the Queen.

The concubines took their leave one after another.

"I don't know what happened to Her Majesty the Queen today. She didn't leave until so late."

"Who knows."

"Don't you know?"

"what do you know?"

"It is said that the Queen wants to meet the eldest daughter of the Shen family today. The Queen is waiting for her."

"She's waiting for her own thing, what does it have to do with us?"

"That's right, I don't know whether the eldest daughter of the Shen family is round or flat. The Queen has praised her several times."

"Humph, maybe the emperor wants to praise it."

"Don't even mention that it was praised by the Emperor. Even if it was chosen by the Emperor, what would it matter?"

"Yeah, so what if I like it? It'll be gone in about two months."

"Keep your voices down. If the Emperor finds out, he'll accuse us of being gossipy."

"The Empress is meeting someone who has nothing to do with her. This must be the Emperor's order. If the Emperor didn't have that intention, why would he be afraid of us saying it?"

The concubines naturally knew Ning Guiren's character, she was fearless.

In the entire harem, she is the only one who refuses to give face to the emperor.

But they didn't dare, after all, Ning Guiren only had an elderly grandfather in her family, but they didn't.

So everyone started looking for other topics.

"Hey, look, why are there so many people standing there?"

When everyone looked, they saw that there were indeed three people standing in a remote place in the palace.

A young lady with her maid and nanny.

There is no fool who can survive in the harem.

Who could not guess that this person was the Empress, the eldest daughter of the Shen family who had just been mentioned several times.

The Queen Mother said that she wanted to see the eldest daughter of the Shen family, but she was reluctant to leave.

This is clearly intended to intimidate people.

In the harem, who hasn't been abused by the Queen?

Even with the emperor's favor, how long can the flowers remain red?

Shen Jinyao saw the concubines walking towards her.

Each one is as beautiful as a fairy, each with her own beauty.

She heard everything the concubines said just now.

Although Nanny Li, who was standing behind her, did not have as good hearing as her, she could still guess what was going on.

When Li Ma Ma heard what these concubines said, she was angry and shocked.

Lan Xing and Xia Zhu were only thinking about protecting Shen Jinyao and had no time to think about anything else.

When the concubines passed by Shen Jinyao, they said nothing.

Some were arrogant, some didn't even look at her, and of course there were also concubines who showed sympathy.

And that expression as if he was looking at a dead thing.

The last concubine, who was called Ning Guiren by others, looked at Shen Jinyao in this way.

Although they didn't say anything, it seemed as if they had said thousands of words.

Shen Jinyao is now certain that the Queen threw her here today just to make her Shen Jinyao hate her.

And her entering the palace today was indeed the emperor's intention.

If the emperor had no other ideas, he would not have thought of seeing her under the pretext of the empress.

After all, Shen Tingyao had met the emperor in person in the main hall before.

The reason why the emperor did not dare to act openly was naturally because he had concerns.

The Shen family had just regained their title, and the emperor wanted to let the Shen family's daughter enter the palace to be a concubine. This would sound a bit bad if it got out.

The most important thing is that Shen Maoshan will definitely not agree.

Of course, Shen Jinyao felt that these were a bit far-fetched.

The emperor probably hasn't made up his mind yet, and he met her today just to test her and decide whether she should stay or go.

Shen Jinyao thought about it and felt that everything made sense.

Okay, that’s fine, as long as I haven’t made up my mind.

As long as she knew why the emperor wanted her to enter the palace as a concubine, she would change it.

Now she knew that it was definitely not because of her appearance.

What is Xiang Hongxuan so nervous about?

She couldn't help but think of the sweat on Xiang Hongxuan's forehead.

Just when she was distracted, Aunt Qian came out to look for her.

"Miss Shen, the Queen is busy today, so I'll keep you waiting for a while."

Xia Zhu and Lan Xing looked at each other but didn't say anything.

How can this be considered a wait?

An hour has passed.

Fortunately, the season is neither too cold nor too hot, otherwise I would have fainted.

Fortunately, the eldest lady distributed some snacks from the carriage to each of them before entering the palace.

Otherwise, you will starve to death.

Shen Jinyao's smile faded a lot.

Now that she knew what the Queen did today, Shen Jinyao had no need to allow herself to be bullied anymore.

Seeing that Shen Jinyao was much colder than before, Nanny Qian couldn't help but think that she must have heard the conversation just now.

I heard that this was the Queen's purpose.

She couldn't help but sigh.

The Queen is always like this.

He was only concerned with venting his anger and getting a momentary pleasure, without thinking about what happened next.

Only the eldest prince could persuade the queen.

She smiled apologetically and invited Shen Jinyao in.

"You three stay."

Nanny Li and the other two were stopped by palace maids.

Shen Jinyao only paused but did not stop.

When Shen Jinyao entered the main room, the door that had been wide open was closed.
