The queen is spoiling the king and madly criticizing him for spoiling her

"If you hadn't dropped my gold hairpin into the water, why would I let you go into the water to pick it up?" Shu Ying retorted with her neck stiff.

Without waiting for Shu Ying to continue, An Nanbo glanced over and said, "Speak less now."

"What happened to Yaoyao before was Shuying's fault. When we get home, Daddy will punish her severely to vent your anger. How about you agree to let her be fostered under the name of the eldest lady?" An Nanbo's tone became lower and lower.

Shu Yao sighed, a leisurely smile playing on the corner of her mouth. "Okay, then Daddy will first ask Shu Ying to return to me what she owes me over the years. The honor of being the second legitimate daughter, the food, clothing, and other necessities she enjoyed in my place over the years that should have belonged to me, and the compensation Daddy has promised me. All in all, it will add up to no less than thirty thousand taels of silver. If Daddy gives it to me, I will agree to let my sister continue to sit as the second legitimate daughter."

[I'm so amused! An Nanbo was trying to trick Shu Yao into suppressing the Shu Ying issue, but Shu Yao didn't care at all. She wanted substantial compensation.]

[Luckily, I don't have a family-oriented brain, otherwise this melon-eating person's mammary glands would also be mammary glands.]

Gu Jianchu tried hard not to laugh out loud.

However, An Nanbo was so angry at Shu Yao's actions that his face turned pale, and even his breathing became heavier. The fingers under his sleeves clenched tightly, and then slowly loosened, repeating this many times.

Compared to Shu Yao, Shu Ying now brings him greater benefits.

An Nanbo almost gnashed his teeth and agreed, "Okay, when we get home, Daddy will give you 30,000 taels of silver."

Shu Yao didn't buy into Annan Bo's promises. "Who knows if Daddy will keep his promise when he returns home? Why don't you write a document to me in front of the Emperor and the Empress, handing over the key to your inner treasury as collateral? If you forget about it when you return home, I can remind you."

Shu Yao still had an innocent smile on her face.

Annanbo was so angry at Shu Yao that he felt a sweet and fishy taste in his throat. He really planned to fool Shu Yao first and deal with the rest of the matters after returning home. However, Shu Yao was not easy to fool at all. He raised his finger and pointed at Shu Yao, and was so angry that he couldn't say a word.

Shu Yao already knew what kind of person An Nanbo was, so she pretended to be casual and asked, "Father, don't you want to compensate me?"

[I underestimated Shu Yao. She is indeed quite clever. She knows An Nanbo's weaknesses and has completely mastered them.]

The anger hidden on Annanbo's face was obvious, but he just kept it to himself and never showed it.

Sensing the tense atmosphere, Shu Ying also knew that the situation was not favorable for her. Fearing that she would be abandoned by An Nanbo, she approached and asked cautiously, "Daddy, why don't you agree to my sister first?"

An Nanbo looked at Shu Yao as if he wanted to eat her alive.

Facing their gaze, Shu Yao was not at all panicked, but instead a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Finally, Annanbo finally compromised and said, "I promise you."

Yunhe immediately asked someone to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone. In front of everyone, Earl Annan wrote a document and then stamped it with his own private seal.

Almost angrily, she pulled the key from her waist and threw it in front of Shu Yao, "Okay, now you can recognize your sister, right?"

After confirming the contents of the document and the authenticity of the key, Shu Yao knelt before Gu Jianchu under the expectation of Annan Bo and Shu Ying, and said word by word, "Your Majesty, I do not wish to acknowledge this sister."

Upon hearing this, Earl Annan was so angry that he almost fainted.

Shu Ying's eyes were sharp, and she raised her hand and rushed towards Shu Yao, "You bitch, you deliberately lied to us just now, didn't you? You have been playing tricks on us from the beginning to the end."

Before Shu Ying could slap Shu Yao in the face, Lin had already rushed forward and slapped Shu Ying in the face.

Shu Ying covered her face and stared at Lin in disbelief.

This slap is late but it arrives.

Although Lin had no feelings for the second daughter who had been swapped with her, what she hated most in her life were the children born to concubines. Even though she had raised them for over a decade, once she learned the truth, Lin still couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Regardless of Shu Yao's status, she would never allow Shu Ying to act tyrannically. She hadn't gotten angry before because she was intimidated by An Nanbo's gaze.

Shu Yao's lips curled up into a beautiful smile, "That's right, I have been lying to you from the beginning to the end. Who made you believe it? What I get is what you owe me."

With Lin's protection, even if Shu Ying was angry, she didn't dare to rush forward.

Instead, An Nanbo finally reacted and said, "I will beat you to death today, you evil girl."

[Oh, he gets so angry when his own interests are involved. This scumbag father is rare in the world.]

Without waiting for Gu Jianchu to take any action, Xie Ci'an coughed lightly and looked over with a coercive look. An Nanbo immediately stopped what he was doing. When he was looked at by the emperor, the strength in his hands immediately weakened.

"The Earl of Annan is truly so arrogant. Is he planning to kill people right in front of me?"

Annanbo was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and said, "I dare not. I just want to teach my disobedient daughter a lesson."

"Miss Shu just wants some compensation, why is she so disobedient? If it weren't for the wrongs done by Lord Annan back then, why would Miss Shu have suffered so much? As for Shu Ying, she was originally a concubine's daughter, but she lived under the title of legitimate daughter for so many years. Now that things are being straightened out, why does Lord Annan still want to continue confusing the bloodline? Or is it that after the situation is straightened out, Shu Ying can't give up her status as a legitimate daughter?"

Gu Jianchu asked lazily, and although his tone was calm, it made people's hearts tremble.

The Queen is currently in great favor and can make the Emperor change his mind with just one word. She also has the Gu family as her backing and cannot be easily offended.

Annan Bo's face turned pale, and he could only swallow all his anger. "This humble official also wants to restore order. As for Shu Ying, this humble official only wants to marry her off as a concubine's daughter, not as a legitimate daughter."

Gu Jianchu sneered and said leisurely, "She married off as the legitimate daughter, so what about Shu Yao? As a father, Lord Annan shouldn't be too partial."

"Since Miss Shu is unwilling to acknowledge Shu Ying as her legitimate sister, then from now on, each of you will resume your respective identities. Yunhe, you will send someone to inform everyone, so that no one will be unaware of this matter and recognize the wrong person, causing unnecessary laughter."

"I'm such a clever idiot. Earl Annan must be thinking that as long as this matter doesn't get out, he'll marry Shuying off as a legitimate daughter as quickly as possible. By then, even if this matter becomes public, it will already be a done deal."

[The Emperor has been blamed for this. How can you just get away with this?]

Seeing that the queen cared so much about him, Xie Ci'an felt a slight warmth in his heart.

An Nanbo was indeed planning the same thing as Gu Jianchu, so after hearing what Gu Jianchu said, he felt a lump in his chest and couldn't breathe.

Because of Gu Jianchu's disturbance, his plan was completely unworkable.

But he didn't dare to say a word of no, because he could already feel the frosty low pressure in Xie Ci'an's heart.
