If looks could kill, Shen Tang would have been tortured to death by Shen Ying the moment he lowered the curtain.

Shen Xian gritted her teeth and stomped her feet as she got on the carriage. It was her first time riding in Shen Ran, Shen Luo and the others' carriage. Although it was not much smaller than the one she and Shen Tang were riding in, she just felt aggrieved and couldn't swallow this.

Shen Ran always flatters Shen Xian. When Shen Xian is angry, she doesn't even dare to breathe.

Shen Xian was very angry, but Shen Tang was leaning against the carriage, in a good mood.

The carriage gurgled forward and stopped in front of Wancui Pavilion after two quarters of an hour.

Shen Luo got out of the carriage and was about to get off when she saw that the carriage she was supposed to ride in did not stop and just left.

Shen Luo turned around and said, "Second sister, eldest sister and the others have left..."

She is really competitive and wants others to do everything according to her wishes.

At the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Tang couldn't even get used to Shen Ying, let alone when they left the mansion.

Shen Tang said indifferently, "They didn't want to go to Wancui Pavilion with us, but you still want to join them?"

Well...it seems so...

They had originally planned to go to Wancui Pavilion first and then to Jinbao Pavilion. When their carriage stopped, the eldest sister just left. It was obvious that she was annoyed with the second sister and was unwilling to buy jewelry with them.

I used to think that my eldest sister was scary when she was angry, but now it seems that my second sister doesn’t get angry often, and when she really gets angry, my eldest sister can’t handle it.

Shen Luo didn't dare to upset Shen Xian, and even more so Shen Tang, so she quickly got off the carriage.

Shen Tang got off the carriage and walked into Wancui Pavilion without even turning his head. Shen Luo glanced sideways several times and watched the carriage that Shen Xi and the others were riding in go away and disappear from her sight.

After entering Wancui Pavilion, the waiter came to greet them and led Shen Tang and Shen Luo to the second floor without asking any questions.

The jewelry on the second floor is more exquisite and more expensive than that on the first floor.

Walking up the stairs to the second floor, she saw several ladies from prominent families choosing jewelry. However, as soon as Shen Tang went up, the ladies' attention was no longer on the jewelry, but on her. They were all curious about how she had the courage to let the bridal sedan be carried back empty at the Prince of Jingyang's Mansion. That was the Prince of Jingyang's Mansion.

Shen Tang ignored the scrutinizing looks. She came to Wancui Pavilion to pick out jewelry, and she chose carefully.

His eyes swept across the tray on which were placed hairpins of various styles. He saw a peacock hairpin that was very unique. Shen Tang reached out to take it, but just as he was about to touch it, another slender hand got there first.

"This hairpin is nice, I want it."

Shen Tang frowned and glanced to see a girl wearing a Shu brocade orchid-embroidered dress. She had a smile on her face, but her eyes were somewhat provocative.

She is the legitimate daughter of the Yongning Earl, Li Ru.

There was a girl following behind her. She looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember whose family she was from.

Shen Tang and the eldest daughter of the Yongning Earl's Mansion had no grudges before, nor had they had any dealings in their previous life. How could Shen Tang not know that he suddenly snatched her hairpin because she was angry that day when she was at the Jiang family and made the wife of the Yongning Earl return empty-handed and even flee in panic?

The Yongning Marquis's Mansion was planning to target the Jiang family and plot against her cousin. She didn't cause any trouble for the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, but the Yongning Marquis's Mansion was the first to cause her trouble.

Shen Tang's eyes were cold, but Miss Li, not content with snatching Shen Tang's hairpin, said, "I didn't expect such a coincidence to run into Miss Shen Er. I wonder if the gold hairpin that Miss Shen Er used to tie her hair that day was from Wancui Pavilion? Did it hurt?"

Shen Tang smiled. "Miss Li, you're so sincere in asking me for advice. Are you planning to stab yourself someday?"

"As someone who's been through this, I have experience. This peacock hairpin is excellent. It won't hurt too much when you put it on."

Shen Tang's eyes fell on the peacock hairpin that she had snatched from her hand, without any sign of anger.

Miss Li immediately felt that the hairpin in her hand was unlucky. There were not only her and Shen Xiang on the second floor, but also several other ladies from prominent families. What Shen Tang said would surely spread. When others saw her wearing this hairpin, they might really think that she was going to stab herself.

Miss Li gritted her teeth and slammed the hairpin on the table, "I don't want this hairpin anymore!"

Shen Tang glanced at the hairpin and raised his eyebrows, "You can't just choose not to buy it now..."

Miss Li's face was icy cold. "I don't want it anymore. Do you think Wancui Pavilion dares to force me to buy it?!"

Shen Tang didn't say anything. The young man from Wancui Pavilion twitched his lips and said, "You twisted the hairpin..."

Miss Li took a glance and saw that one of the feathers of the peacock hairpin was lifted up, and her face immediately turned ugly.

The hairpin cannot be considered broken, it can be bent back, but can Wancui Pavilion sell a repaired hairpin to other customers? If it is not put on the counter and no one knows about it, it will be fine. But if someone buys it later and finds out that the hairpin was twisted by Miss Li, won’t she be disgusted and cause trouble for Wancui Pavilion?

Shen Tang smiled and said, "The young lady from the Yongning Marquis's residence wouldn't damage the jade hairpin in Wancui Pavilion. Wouldn't you like to buy it?"

"you!"

Miss Li gritted her teeth in anger, "Who said I won't buy it? I just didn't see it just now!"

She would not ruin her reputation for just a few dozen taels of silver.

It's just that she was looking for Shen Tang to be unhappy, and now she is the one who is unhappy. Miss Li can't swallow this breath. "Miss Shen Er drugged her eldest sister, causing her to not marry the Prince of Jingyang. The engagement was broken off by the Jingyang Palace. Miss Shen Er still has the mood to go out shopping. Don't you feel guilty at all?"

Shen Tang didn't want to cause trouble, but some people really gave her face. Shen Tang curled her lips and said, "Speaking of guilt, there's one thing I won't do. I will really feel guilty for the rest of my life."

When Shen Tang looked up, her eyes were cold. She took a few steps closer, frightening Miss Li so much that she stepped back repeatedly. Shen Tang whispered in her ear, "Go back and tell the Earl of Yongning and his wife that if they still don't stop substituting one thing for another, using the guise of marrying the Third Young Master Li to bring happiness to the Crown Prince and harm other girls, I will report it to the Censorate. When the time comes, it will be reported to the emperor, and everyone in the court will know how filthy the Yongning Earl's Mansion is."

The girl had been standing behind Miss Li. When she saw Miss Li causing trouble for Shen Tang, her face turned red. She wanted to leave but couldn't leave Miss Li behind. She looked so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.

Miss Li stepped back, and she also took a few steps back. Shen Tang's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for her to hear. Shen Tang even looked into her eyes when he spoke.

Shen Tang's few words made her face turn from red to pale.

Needless to say, Miss Li's expression was very unhappy. She didn't expect that Shen Tang would dare to openly threaten her, no, to threaten her parents.

Shen Tang had already saved face for the Yongning Marquis's Mansion. Otherwise, if her voice had been a little louder, it would have spread throughout the capital in less than half an hour.

She just remembered who that girl was. She was from the Zhao family of the Hanlin Academy. Like the Jiang family, her family was of high status and nobility.

Shen Tang was not sure whether the Yongning Marquis's Mansion had failed to plot against the Jiang family and had changed its mind to target the girl from the Zhao family, but if a few words could save a girl's life, she would not hesitate to say a few words.

I have to say that the eldest daughter of the Yongning Earl's Mansion and the wife of the Yongning Earl's Mansion are indeed mother and daughter. Even the way they fled were exactly the same.
