Sheng Nanzhi didn't see Shi Huaizhi the whole day, and she thought about it the whole day, but she still couldn't figure out: Why was Shi Huaizhi angry?

"Our people have been keeping an eye on the Seventh Prince's residence for two days yesterday and today. After the Seventh Prince and his wife returned home yesterday, they had a huge argument."

Was it because she mistook him for a mosquito and slapped him last night?

"The Seventh Prince accused the Seventh Prince's Consort of putting on an act without considering the situation, and she was almost exposed. He called her a fool who could do nothing but cause trouble."

"The Seventh Prince's Consort argued, saying it was all because she wanted to help him."

"The Seventh Prince did not stay in the main courtyard last night."

But wasn't that all because he insisted on buzzing in her ear while she was asleep?

"Early this morning, the Seventh Prince's wife went to the courtyard where the Seventh Prince was staying. I don't know what they said behind closed doors, but when they came out, they were both very happy, even excited."

"It seems that they have reconciled."

Sheng Nanzhi curled her lips. She could just apologize. Why did Shi Huaizhi run so fast this morning? She didn't even have the chance to apologize.

It's really petty for a grown man to be so fussy.

"Princess? Did you hear what I was saying?"

Sheng Nanzhi gathered his thoughts and coughed lightly: "I heard you say that Wen Tingyun and Sheng Qingqian had a fight yesterday, but they reconciled today."

She stopped thinking about Shi Huaizhi and pondered for a moment: "Under my deliberate provocation, there has long been a rift between Wen Tingyun and Sheng Qingqian. And with what happened yesterday, Wen Tingyun is even more dissatisfied with Sheng Qingqian."

"Even calling him a fool and saying he can't do anything right and is more likely to cause trouble than help, I'm sure this isn't just ordinary dissatisfaction."

"But you said that Sheng Qingqian went to Wen Tingyun's place early this morning, and the two of them cleared up their differences and even happily reconciled?"

Shuanghan nodded in agreement: "I also think this is really strange."

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Sheng Nanzhi lowered her eyes, her gaze darkening. "Keep watching, keep a close eye on every move of Sheng Qingqian and Wen Tingyun."

Wen Tingyun had no feelings for Sheng Qingqian at all, and he had no choice but to marry her.

Wen Tingyun did not send Sheng Qingqian back because they had already slept together and were actually husband and wife.

Secondly, no matter how useless Sheng Qingqian is, she is still the daughter of the Sheng family and can still be of some use to him.

But after Wen Tingyun became the seventh prince, a concubine's daughter of the Sheng family seemed unworthy of him, and her usefulness to him was also limited.

In addition, after Sheng Qingqian was reborn, she was indeed too anxious. She was anxious to marry Wen Tingyun, anxious to reveal Wen Tingyun's identity, become the seventh prince's consort, and anxious to get pregnant with Wen Tingyun's child.

But this made Wen Tingyun even more annoyed.

This makes the sudden reconciliation and happiness between Wen Tingyun and Sheng Qingqian today seem a bit strange.

"How long were they in the room?"

"About a quarter of an hour."

Sheng Nanzhi frowned. A quarter of an hour didn't seem like enough time to do anything.

Could it be because Sheng Qingqian told Wen Tingyun that Sheng Lin pushed Minister Lin out yesterday and made him a scapegoat for Wen Tingyun?

It's not impossible.

Now she could only keep a close eye on every move over there and wait and see.

This period of quiet observation lasted for several days.

Shi Huaizhi also did not come back for several days.

How stingy! Sheng Nanzhi frowned and looked at the drizzling rain outside. Finally, he couldn't help but summon Yuanbao out.

"Where is your prince?"

Yuan Bao looked at Sheng Nanzhi in surprise: "Your Highness... Your Highness has gone out of town on business to investigate this weapons entrapment incident. He is not expected to be back for another two days."

He paused, as if he had discovered a great secret: "Your Highness...didn't you tell the Princess?"

"Did the princess and the prince have a quarrel?"

"No wonder, I saw that the prince looked a little unhappy when he left that day."

What do you mean, she and Shi Huaizhi had a fight?

She didn't say anything at all, okay?

It was clearly Shi Huaizhi who was using the cold violence against her.

"There was no quarrel."

"Ah!" Yuanbao's eyes widened. No quarrel? That shouldn't be the case.

"So... there was a fight?"

Sheng Nanzhi was strangely silent for a moment. She didn't know. If she slapped Shi Huai in the face while she was asleep, would it be considered a fight?

"Well, I guess it's just a one-sided beating on my part. He didn't fight back."

"What?" Yuan Bao exclaimed, "You...you...you hit the prince? And the prince didn't even fight back?"

Yuan Bao looked at Sheng Nanzhi solemnly and made a final conclusion: "The prince really loves you terribly."

Sheng Nanzhi's head was full of questions. What the hell?

"How did you come to this conclusion?"

Yuan Bao pretended to be serious: "I have been with the prince for so many years, and I have never seen anyone beat the prince and still be able to talk to me alive."

"No wonder the prince looked so grim when he left that day."

Yuan Bao secretly gave her a thumbs up: "Princess, you are really... amazing. I admire you."

After getting the answer he wanted, Sheng Nanzhi waved away Yuanbao and sat on the soft couch under the window to read.

But after a long time, not a single page of the book was turned.

Could it be that when Huaizhi whispered in her ear that night, he was trying to tell her that he would be away from the imperial city for a few days?

As a result, she slapped him as if it were a mosquito, so he got angry and just left without saying goodbye?

Sheng Nanzhi was thinking when Xue Yi walked in from outside: "Master, there is news from the Seventh Prince's Mansion."

"Our people say that the Seventh Prince and his wife have been as close as honey since they reconciled that day. Lately, the Seventh Prince has been staying at his wife's place every night."

Sheng Nanzhi raised an eyebrow. Wen Tingyun had injured his reproductive organs and was unable to have sex. So he stayed at Sheng Qingqian's place every night?

Doesn't that mean I have to give Sheng Qingqian medicine and sing opera with her every night?

But she didn't quite understand. Wen Tingyun didn't like Sheng Qingqian, so doing this was considered a way to please Sheng Qingqian.

What on earth happened that made Wen Tingyun willing to go to this extent?

"Wen Tingyun, have you seen Sheng Lin in the past few days?"

Xue Yi shook her head: "No."

"But the Seventh Prince has not been idle these days. He meets all kinds of people almost every day, not just the court officials."

Xue Yi presented a piece of paper. "This is a list of people our people have kept a close eye on the Seventh Prince. It's a list of the people he's met in the past few days."

Sheng Nanzhi took it and unfolded it.

There were about eight or nine names on the list.

These people had different identities, including court officials, sons of noble families, ordinary scholars, and businessmen.

The most outrageous thing is that there is even a butcher.

Looking at the familiar names and identities on the list, Sheng Nanzhi's expression suddenly changed.

She knew why Wen Tingyun changed his disgusted attitude towards Sheng Qingqian and treated her as a treasure.
