Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist
Chapter 154: Really Smart
As the wife of the heir to the Prince of Yongning's Mansion, Shen Lingwei was naturally one of the specially invited guests.
Sure enough, not long after, a young eunuch came up and asked her to accompany him.
At the same time, Shen Muxue's gaze swept over Wei Lanqian, who had become particularly obedient not far away. The corners of her mouth rose involuntarily, and she walked straight towards where he was.
"Cousin Lan Qian, Ling Wei said she'd take me to see Prince Yongning later. I'm a little nervous. Do you know what taboos Prince Yongning has?"
Wei Lanqian's ashen face finally showed a hint of life, and she asked, "When did it happen?"
"She didn't tell me the exact time, she just told me to wait."
Shen Muxue answered lightly.
"If you're unsure, I'll go with you later."
It's rare to hear Wei Lanqian's gentle proposal.
A smile appeared on Shen Muxue's face, and she said sweetly: "My cousin is so considerate."
Thinking about what might happen today, Shen Muxue guessed that Shen Lingwei might be planning to make a man have feelings for her and force her to marry that man.
If Wei Lanqian could go with him, the potential risks could be reduced to some extent.
After chatting with Wei Lanqian for a while, a maid from the Shen Mansion came over and said that Shen Lingwei had summoned her.
The two followed the maid to the designated location.
When they arrived in front of a side room, the maid said, "The Third Miss has instructed that the Second Miss go in alone. Cousin, why don't you go with me to another place to rest for a while?"
Shen Muxue and Wei Lanqian looked at each other, knowing in their hearts that something was wrong, but only Wei Lanqian naively thought that the person waiting in the house was Prince Yongning.
"Ouch, my stomach suddenly hurts!"
After saying this, Shen Muxue pressed her hands on her abdomen and hurriedly fled the scene, leaving the little maidservant frantically shouting:
"Where are you going, Miss? There's a toilet inside the wing, please wait..."
One person ran forward hurriedly, and the other chased him in panic, and soon disappeared in the distance.
Yu Tang looked at their receding figures in confusion, "Miss, that place is not very convenient."
Shen Muxue turned around and laughed, "Silly girl Yutang, I'm fine now. Let's just take a small detour and go back."
Just like that, Shen Muxue took Yutang by the hand and changed the route and walked slowly to the room mentioned earlier.
When I reached the door, I found that the surroundings were unusually quiet and there was no movement at all - could it be that I really misunderstood Shen Lingwei before?
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly heard a sharp scream from inside, and immediately felt a surge of excitement in her heart: This was indeed a trap!
In the past life, their family had conspired against her and pushed Wei Lanqian to the position of Princess Yongning.
Now it is the latter's turn to taste the taste of betrayal.
Then I saw an old lady dressed in gorgeous court clothes walk into the room.
Not long after, a man dressed in gorgeous clothes and looking quite happy came out with the old woman.
Afterwards, Wei Lanqian, who seemed to be staggering, left contentedly accompanied by Mrs. Hou.
However, no one around came to witness this farce.
Logically speaking, if Shen Lingwei had really framed her, she should have arranged for a crowd of onlookers to catch the adultery on the spot...
Shen Muxue walked while thinking, and when he met Shen Lingwei again, he still had not fully figured out the truth.
"Is my sister okay?"
Shen Lingwei hurriedly grabbed her hand and asked with concern, as if she was unaware of anything happening outside.
Shen Muxue was stunned for a moment before deciding to pretend she was successfully framed. "I feel ashamed to face anyone."
She said it with tears in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Shen Lingwei was obviously relieved, apparently mistakenly thinking that Shen Muxue had been captured by the mysterious man.
"Sister, there is nothing in this world that cannot be overcome.
Don't be so pessimistic.
I was late because of something just now, but who would have thought that Prince Yongning would be looking for me there?
Maybe he met you, although the whole process was a misunderstanding, but to some extent it can be regarded as fate.
Let’s put it this way. Next, I will plead with the Queen Mother. Since you are also the woman of Prince Yongning, we will share the same husband from now on. You will be respected in everything.
Shen Muxue's eyes widened. It was indeed Prince Yongning who was in the room.
She sneered in her heart. It turned out that Shen Lingwei planned to let her become the concubine of Prince Yongning. This was a brilliant plan. In this way, the dowry could go directly into the hands of the Queen Mother.
Shen Lingwei saw the shocked expression on Shen Muxue's face and was secretly delighted. "Second sister, I mean it sincerely. It's all because of me that you are in this predicament. I will go and plead with the Queen Mother to let you be the principal wife and I will be the concubine. Is that okay?"
Faced with such hypocritical words, Shen Muxue naturally could not reveal her weakness and immediately refused: "No need, this marriage is yours. Since no outsiders know about it, let's just pretend nothing happened."
As expected, Shen Lingwei's expression changed suddenly after hearing this answer.
Obviously, she had not expected that Shen Muxue would not care so much about her reputation.
Shen Lingwei quickly said, "How could no one have noticed? I was actually standing not far from here. Besides, the eunuchs and guards accompanying the prince also knew about it, but in order not to damage the prince's reputation, they chose to turn a blind eye."
It seems to be the case. Shen Lingwei did not allow others to catch the adulterer. On the one hand, it was to protect the reputation of Prince Yongning. On the other hand, she set up a plan to have witnesses. In this way, the reputation could be preserved and the plan could be implemented smoothly.
She is quite astute.
Thinking of this, Shen Muxue no longer planned to tease her, but smiled and said: "I was just joking with my sister, in fact, I didn't step into that room."
"Are you telling the truth?"
Shen Lingwei asked in surprise.
"Isn't that right? You didn't go in to check at the time, so how could you not know the facts?"
Looking at Shen Lingwei's complicated expression at the moment, Shen Muxue felt a rare pleasure in her heart. She was very much looking forward to the scene when the two would meet one day in the future when Wei Lanqian became the concubine of Prince Yongning.
The temple then arranged lunch. After lunch, everyone went to the outside of the Main Hall to make wishes and pray.
During this period, Shen Lingwei seemed uneasy and wanted to find an opportunity to ask Prince Yongning whether there was any progress. Unfortunately, she was always entangled by Shen Muxue and could not leave.
Shen Lingwei still hadn't found the right opportunity until the group arrived in front of the main hall and sat down to listen to the scriptures.
After reciting a passage, the abbot stood up and announced to the crowd, "Our temple recently brought back a Buddha relic from South India. It's said that the Buddha's birthday is the eighth day of the fourth lunar month. Is there anyone here whose birthday is also on that day? I'd like to ask them to help display the relic to everyone."
Almost at the same time, everyone in the Shen family turned to look at Shen Muxue. Her birthday was exactly the same as that of Sakyamuni.
