After rebirth, the abstinent prince wants to marry me every day

"Princess, Madam Shen has been invited into the palace by the Queen Mother!" Wangshu hurried into the room with a look of gloating on his face.

Zhu Qingan was drawing her eyebrows and stopped when she heard this.

"Aunt invites Aunt Shen to the palace?" Zhu Qing'an was a little puzzled. Although she was engaged to Shen Shixin, her aunt had always been cold towards the Shen family and never summoned Aunt Shen specifically.

"It's Madam Shen again. Yesterday, you had someone send Miss Fang back to the Shen Mansion. Madam Shen was very angry when she saw Miss Shen being beaten. So she was planning to come to the mansion this morning to talk to you, Princess. But she didn't expect that as soon as she left the house, she was invited into the palace by Palace Master Guan and the palace servants!" Wangshu had a smile on his face.

"You seem very happy?" Zhu Qing'an asked after rubbing the ointment on his hands.

"That's not true! Madam Shen often relies on her status as an elder to make you suffer. Now that she has met the Empress Dowager, let's see how she can argue!" Wangshu hoped that the Empress Dowager would discipline Madam Shen, so that Madam Shen would not always act arrogantly in front of her own princess.

"You!" Zhu Qing'an said helplessly through the bronze mirror, but he also understood that Wangshu did it all for him.

"Go and ask my second sister to change her clothes and come with me into the palace!" Zhu Qing'an ordered.

Although Zhu Qing'an knew that Shen's mother had been summoned to the palace by Guan Gong Ling, he was not in a hurry. He knew that his aunt was busy with affairs, and even if she summoned Shen's mother, she would not do so immediately.

After eating a few bites of breakfast, Zhu Qing'an saw his second sister Zhu Baiwei coming over.

"Eldest sister?" Zhu Baiwei hurried over and asked with concern, "I heard that the Queen Mother invited Madam Shen into the palace. Is it because of that Miss Fang? After entering the palace, I will definitely report the reason to the Queen Mother. I will never let anyone misunderstand you, eldest sister!"

"Look how flustered you are, but you haven't even had breakfast?" Zhu Qing'an said, asking Wangshu to go to the kitchen to get some breakfast, and then took his second sister's hand and got on the carriage.

"Aunt is a very sensible person. How could she misunderstand me because of a few words from others? But you, a girl, have a weak spleen and stomach. You must remember to eat three meals a day!" As Zhu Qing'an said this, Wangshu had already got on the carriage with a food box.

I opened the lunch box and found two still warm buns and a bowl of porridge inside.

When Zhu Baiwei heard her elder sister say this, she felt that she was confused. The empress dowager loved her elder sister the most, so how could she wrongly accuse her elder sister?

While having breakfast, Zhu Baiwei wondered why her elder sister brought her into the palace.

Suddenly, Zhu Baiwei understood her elder sister's intention. She put down the buns in her hand, stared at her elder sister eagerly, and said in a trembling voice, "Elder sister..."

How could her elder sister be so good? She is the best elder sister in the world.

"Although my aunt loves me, she also cares about you and my third brother. You are not a child anymore. If you have time, please accompany me to pay respects to my aunt often!" Zhu Qing'an instructed.

Zhu Baiwei nodded, knowing very well that her elder sister had good intentions.

Because of the bullying by the cousin from the Shen family, the eldest sister wanted to improve her status. If she could win the favor of the empress dowager, she would be looked up to by the noble ladies in Ancheng in the future, making up for the shortcomings of her status as a concubine's daughter.

Zhu Baiwei had little impression of the almighty Empress Dowager, knowing only that she was a figure no less capable than any man. She had only met the Empress Dowager a few times since she was a child, and she had even questioned her age and education. Even during the annual festivals, she and her third brother shared in the royal gifts bestowed upon her.

Therefore, although Zhu Baiwei was in awe of the unfamiliar Empress Dowager, she never complained.

Zhu Qing'an brought his third sister into the palace and went straight to the Cining Palace. As expected, when they arrived, Shen's mother was still waiting in the side hall of the Cining Palace.

"Why is the princess here?" Palace Commander Guan came forward with a smile and saluted, then bowed to Zhu Baiwei and said, "Greetings, Second Miss!"

Zhu Baiwei quickly moved away, not daring to accept Guan Gongling's greeting.

"Greetings, Palace Master Guan!" Zhu Baiwei bowed politely.

"Quick, prepare the lily tea that the Ministry of Internal Affairs just delivered a few days ago!" Guan Gongling ordered in an orderly manner, and then said, "The Empress Dowager is discussing important matters with the court officials. Please wait!"

"Go and get busy, Palace Master Guan!" Zhu Qing'an said with a smile, and brought Zhu Baiwei to Mother Shen.

Mother Shen had been standing there since she entered the Cining Palace, watching Palace Order Guan, who had been indifferent to her, being so friendly to Zhu Qing'an, and she felt bad.

As soon as Palace Order Guan left the side hall, Mother Shen stood in front of Zhu Qing'an and asked through gritted teeth, "Did you file a complaint with the Empress Dowager?"

Zhu Baiwei looked at Shen's mother who was like an old hen, and subconsciously prepared to stand in front of her elder sister, but her elder sister grabbed her wrist.

"Aunt Shen has misunderstood. Why should I complain?" Zhu Qing'an looked innocent. If she had a grudge, she would take revenge on the spot. Why would she go to her aunt to complain and cause her trouble?

Mother Shen's face was grim, her slender eyebrows knitted together. "As a princess, you actually beat and hurt my cousin from the Shen family. What are you thinking?"

Zhu Qing'an just stared at Shen's mother with an empty look in his eyes, but Shen's mother subconsciously stepped back.

Zhu Qing'an didn't believe that Fang Qing really didn't say anything after returning to the Shen Mansion. Shen's mother knew why Fang Qing was beaten, but did not dare to apologize. Instead, she questioned herself.

At this time, Guan Gong Ling Qu'er repeatedly said, "Madam Shen, the Queen Mother summons you! Please come in!"

Guan Gongling's voice was so gloomy that Shen's mother shrank subconsciously. She also remembered the rumors about the empress dowager and was very scared.

The three followed Guan Gongling into the palace. The cold hall was shimmering with a chilling light, and the palace servants waiting around had solemn expressions, which made people feel fear from the bottom of their hearts.

This fear is not only shared by Shen's mother, but also by Zhu Baiwei.

However, before Zhu Baiwei could get scared, her palm was held. She turned her eyes to look at her elder sister beside her, and it seemed that everything was not so scary anymore.

After the ceremony, a voice came from the upper position saying "No need to bow."

"I summoned people into the palace just now, and you entered the palace right after?" The Queen Mother looked at her niece below, not knowing what to scold.

"Qing'an just missed my aunt, so she brought her second sister to pay her respects to me! You can't wrongly accuse me!" Zhu Qing'an retorted with a smile, her expression full of intimacy, without any fear.

The Queen Mother glanced at Zhu Baiwei, who was standing aside with her head lowered. "Is this Baiwei from my brother's family? Raise your head and let me see you!"

Zhu Baiwei didn't dare to breathe. She raised her head and saw the graceful and elegant Empress Dowager sitting on the throne.

"You've grown so big in the blink of an eye!" The Queen Mother sighed. "When you have nothing to do, come to the palace often to accompany your elder sister. She always feels bored in the palace alone!"

The Queen Mother's attitude showed that she was satisfied with Zhu Baiwei, and Zhu Baiwei quickly said "yes".

After a short conversation, the Queen Mother looked at Shen's mother standing to the side, her eyes instantly becoming dark. "Madam Shen, I heard that you were planning to cause trouble for Qing An this morning?"
