Xie Qianan swore that this was the first time a woman pointed at his nose and called him disgusting and hypocritical.

As a prince, his mother was the most favored concubine in the harem when he was young. He was also one of the most favored princes in the palace and the object of flattery by the slaves. He could get whatever he wanted.

Later, when the current queen entered the palace, my mother gradually fell out of favor, but at that time her position was stable and no one dared to neglect him.

Ever since he set his sights on that position, he consciously tried to win people's hearts. Later, when he entered the court to serve, he would smile at everyone he met, act considerately, and try not to offend anyone.

Thanks to his hard work, he was finally noticed by his father and became one of the only two princes in the palace to be crowned king.

Now, he has been working hard for many years and has a large number of supporters behind him, so he has the power to compete. He is in the prime of his life, but he is being scolded and called disgusting. How can he tolerate this?

Xie Qian'an was filled with rage, but when his eyes fell on Shen Qionghua's gorgeous yet stubborn face, the rage in his heart seemed to be extinguished by the spring rain.

Haha, he is quite clever. He could actually guess that the Yongning Marquis Mansion was under his instructions.

He is just a frog in the well, not worthy of being on the stage. How dare he jump out and criticize him so impatiently!

But for now, the disaster relief funds still need to rely on the Shen family, and he cannot act rashly. When he ascends the throne to become emperor in the future, he will make her pay the price for what she said today.

Doesn't she not want the position of queen he gave her? Doesn't she hate him?

Then he would make her a bed-warming maid by his side, suffer all kinds of humiliation, and finally die of old age in the cold palace, without freedom for the rest of her life.

Xie Qi'an had a thousand thoughts in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Miss Shen, let's be frank. Although I had other thoughts before, every time I met you, I always treated you with courtesy and never overstepped my bounds. Your disgust is inexplicable."

"Miss Shen, as the current head of the Shen family, should have your own opinions. You can't be prejudiced against me just because of what others say."

other people?

Could he be talking about Prince Rui?

Oh, you still want to quibble at this time.

A sneer tugged at the corner of Shen Qionghua's mouth. "Inexplicable? Your Highness, do you really not know where my dislike comes from, or are you pretending to be ignorant?"

"You have joined forces with the Yongning Marquisate to rob the Shen family of their wealth and harm the lives of the Shen family. Why do you think that I will obey you just because you say something soft?"

Seeing Shen Qionghua's tough attitude, Xie Qian'an's face was already filled with some displeasure, but he suppressed it forcefully.

"Ms. Shen, nothing is absolute. There are no permanent enemies or permanent friends. You must think carefully. This is your only chance to change the fate of the Shen family."

"As long as you let go of the past and fully support me, I can pretend I didn't hear anything. My words about being the mother of the country will still work."

After hearing this, Shen Qionghua burst out laughing as if she had heard a joke, and her laughter became louder and louder.

Her eyes mocked,

"Your Highness, you are too conceited. The current emperor has more than one prince, and you are not the most capable among them. Even if I were to place a bet, I would not place the chips on you."

After he finished speaking, Xie Qian'an's eyes, which had been calm just now, suddenly became sharp, like a knife falling on Shen Qionghua's body, his voice was cold and thin.

"Oh, who does Miss Shen like?"

Shen Qionghua covered her rosy lips, but the laughter still leaked out from between her fingers.

"Of course it's the one who is the most favored and has made great military achievements. I think he is more likely than you, Your Highness."

This was the first time that Shen Qionghua clearly expressed her support for Xie Nanyuan in front of Xie Qian'an, but she was not afraid, she was just happy.

Xie Qian'an's expression suddenly changed.

"So, Miss Shen has made up her mind to go against me?" Xie Qian'an said gritting his teeth.

"Your Highness, you are joking. The Shen family is just a merchant family. How dare they go against Your Highness? It's just that the Shen family and Your Highness have different ideals and cannot work together. I hope Your Highness will not force us and borrow the money from others." Shen Qionghua said casually without admitting it.

Not doing the right thing?

That is impossible.

For the rest of her life, her greatest happiness would be to see Xie Qian'an's plans come to nothing and the Yongning Marquis's family destroyed. This would be her goal.

"In that case, I will not disturb Miss Shen any more."

Seeing that things had come to this, Xie Qian knew that it was useless to say soft words.

He looked at Shen Qionghua deeply, then left with a flick of his sleeves.

Since roundabout means don't work, we have to resort to hard tactics. We must raise the money for disaster relief!

Xie Qian'an left Lin's mother and daughter behind.

Zhou Lingyi supported Lin, who looked like she had lost her soul, with anger in his eyes.

"Shen Qionghua, you bitch, you knew it a long time ago and you've fooled all of us."

"How can you be so vicious? You killed Xuan Ge'er and you still want to go against us. Your conscience has been eaten by dogs. You—"

"Pa——" With a crisp sound, Shen Qionghua walked up to Zhou Lingyi and slapped her directly. She used all her strength in this slap, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Zhou Lingyi's mouth.

Shen Qionghua grabbed Zhou Lingyi's neck.

"Speaking of viciousness, I'm not even a ten-thousandth of yours. You were the first to attack, and now you're being retaliated against."

The blood from the corner of Zhou Lingyi's mouth stung Lin's eyes. She seemed to have just reacted and rushed forward.

"Bitch, let go of Sister Yi!"

Shen Qionghua released her hand that was pinching Zhou Lingyi's neck, dodged Lin's attack, and then kicked her. Lin immediately knocked Zhou Lingyi to the ground, and the mother and daughter wailed.

Shen Qionghua's cold voice echoed in the air: "Throw them out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, An Yi immediately flashed out from the shadows, picked up Lin and Zhou Lingyi in each hand, and threw them onto the street in front of the Shen Mansion.

The servants of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion who were waiting outside were bored. Suddenly, they saw two things being thrown out. They looked closely and saw that it was their master. They hurried forward to support him.

When the mother and daughter of the Lin family recovered from the pain and were about to get angry, they saw that the people around them were all looking at them. They felt extremely ashamed and without saying a word, they got on the carriage and returned to the Yongning Marquis Mansion in shame.
