"Ah!" Sheng Nanzhi looked as if he had suddenly realized something: "So that's how it is."

She lowered her voice and said to Madam Mu, "How about we invite General Mu and Miss Wei in to talk?"

Madam Mu shook her head and called out to Mu Zhao, "Zhao'er."

Mu Zhao turned around, and Wei Mingyue took advantage of this opportunity to quickly break free from Mu Zhao's grip and hurriedly got on the carriage parked nearby.

Mu Zhao was about to chase after her when Madam Mu raised her voice, "Mu Zhao!"

The carriage was going farther and farther away. Mu Zhao clenched his teeth and veins bulged on his forehead.

After calming himself down for a while, he turned and walked towards Madam Mu and the others: "Mother! Did you see that? It's Mingyue!"

Madam Mu naturally knew, but she frowned and said, "Of course I know, but with her current status, if you were to fight with her on the street today, wouldn't that actually harm her?"

"Just hold it in for now. Go find her and have a good chat in private later, okay?"

Mu Zhao was still young after all, and he didn't hide his emotions at all. He just stamped his feet and said, "But I don't even know where she is!"

Sheng Nanzhi saw the opportunity and spoke: "She is the maid of Miss Lan Yi of Qingfeng Tower. I held a banquet in my mansion today and invited Miss Lan Yi to sing a song. She came with Miss Lan Yi."

Mu Zhao paused, then looked up and immediately guessed Sheng Nanzhi's identity: "Greetings, Princess Yi. Thank you for telling me."

After knowing the information he wanted to know, he could hardly contain himself for a moment and turned and left.

Madam Mu took a deep breath, turned around and smiled at Sheng Nanzhi: "I'm really sorry, my son is a little impatient."

Sheng Nanzhi waved her hand: "That's fine. General Mu is a man of character."

"Moreover, General Mu and Miss Mingyue have been friends since childhood. General Mu has always been thinking about her, which only makes the friendship between young people's childhood sweethearts even more precious."

Mrs. Mu nodded, said a few words of thanks to Sheng Nanzhi, and then hurriedly said goodbye.

When the others saw that there was no more show to watch, they all left.

Only Sheng Qingqian was left, and with a grim expression, she followed Sheng Nanzhi back into Prince Yi's Mansion.

As soon as the door of Prince Yi's Mansion was closed, Sheng Qingqian rushed directly towards Sheng Nanzhi, raising her hand to hit Sheng Nanzhi.

Xue Yi, who had been following Sheng Nanzhi, quickly stood in front of Sheng Nanzhi, caught Sheng Qingqian's hand, and shouted sternly, "Seventh Prince's Consort! What are you doing?"

"This is Prince Yi's Mansion. You dare to attack the princess in Prince Yi's Mansion. You are too bold!"

Sheng Qingqian was so angry that her whole body was shaking. She just raised her hand and pointed at Sheng Nanzhi: "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

"You knew full well that Wei Mingyue was Mu Zhao's mistress! Yet you deliberately summoned her!"

Sheng Nanzhi became increasingly confused: "What is my sister talking about?"

"What do you mean I knew Wei Mingyue was Mu Zhao's concubine? When did I know that?"

"Besides, didn't you just hear Mu Zhao say it yourself? After the incident at the Wei Mansion, he has been looking for Wei Mingyue. He has been searching for her for three years and still hasn't found her. He never imagined that Wei Mingyue was actually in the Imperial City."

"Three years ago, Wei Mingyue was the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. I don't think Wei Mingyue looks that old now. When the Wei Mansion was in trouble three years ago, she must have been even younger, only twelve or thirteen years old at most."

"How could Wei Mingyue be Mu Zhao's concubine at that time?"

"Third sister is having hysterics, right?"

"Besides, even if Wei Mingyue is Mu Zhao's concubine, what does it have to do with you? Could it be that Third Sister is attracted to General Mu?"

Sheng Qingqian was about to refute, but she noticed the astonished looks the servants around her gave her.

She suddenly remembered that she had been reborn and was now Wen Tingyun's wife.

She took a deep breath, clenched her teeth, and lowered her voice: "You know what I'm talking about!"

Sheng Nanzhi sneered: "I don't know."

"It's true that I chose Lan Yi, but Wei Mingyue is just Lan Yi's maid. How could I have so much free time to pay attention to a maid?"

"Besides, I don't even know Wei Mingyue."

"When the Wei family was in trouble three years ago, I was not in the Imperial City at all."

She waved her hand, making Xue Yi and the others, who looked alert, take a few steps back.

"If you want to talk about your past life."

"You did mention before that Mu Zhao had a beloved concubine in his previous life, but you only mentioned it briefly."

"I didn't know about the existence of that concubine in my previous life. Even if you mentioned it after my rebirth, you only said that the concubine came from a brothel. I have no idea what her name was or which brothel she came from."

"I can't possibly call all the prostitutes in the imperial city just to find one person, right?"

Sheng Nanzhi's eyes were dark and gloomy: "What's more, Third Sister, the things in the past life are all in the past."

"You are now the consort of the Seventh Prince."

"In fact, you are already pregnant with the Seventh Prince's child."

"If the Seventh Prince heard about your nonsense today, what would he think?"

Sheng Qingqian gritted her teeth and said nothing, just glared at Sheng Nanzhi fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Sheng Nanzhi wasn't afraid: "Besides, Third Sister, you are probably too happy about being pregnant. You almost forgot that you are only the consort of the Seventh Prince."

"And I am Princess Yi."

"You treated me like that just now. If I insist on pursuing the matter, even Wen Tingyun wouldn't dare to say a word!"

"If you want to teach me a lesson, if you want to attack me, I advise you to wait until you become the Crown Princess, until you can climb over my head."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and said, "I'm a little tired today, so I'll go back and rest first."

"Xue Yi, see the Seventh Prince's Consort off."

"Yes." Xue Yi agreed, turned around and made a gesture of invitation to Sheng Qingqian: "Seventh Prince's Consort, please come this way."

Sheng Qingqian almost bit her teeth, but in the end she just flicked her sleeves and left angrily.

Sheng Nanzhi ignored the murderous gaze behind him and walked slowly towards the attic.

Shi Huaizhi's voice rang out from behind him: "You've angered her so much, aren't you afraid that she'll become desperate?"

"She probably hates you now. I'm afraid she will try to get rid of you before she attacks Mu Zhao."

Sheng Nanzhi chuckled: "What are you afraid of? Aren't you here?"

"Will the prince allow Sheng Qingqian to have a chance to attack me?"

Shi Huaizhi curled his lips: "You are good at manipulating people's hearts."

Sheng Nanzhi didn't think it was a bad thing to manipulate people's hearts: "And Sheng Qingqian might deal with me, but she would never want to kill me."

"After all, she wanted to keep me around and wanted me to watch her ascend to a high position."

Watching her reach a position she had never reached in her previous life.

"Then he showed off to me, used his power to pressure me, and finally took my life."
