Soon, they arrived at the door of the main hall.

Six people, not a small number.

The one walking in front was gorgeous, wearing a peach-colored embroidered long dress, and her makeup and jewelry were very exquisite. She should be the one with the highest status among these concubines.

Although Sheng Nanzhi had never seen them, she had heard of them. She knew that among Shi Huaizhi's six concubines, one was given to Shi Huaizhi by the imperial concubine. She was said to be a palace maid who had served the imperial concubine for several years. Her name seemed to be Jinxin.

This was the person Sheng Yunrou mentioned most often in her previous life.

Before Sheng Nanzhi could speak, everyone's eyes fell on Sheng Nanzhi's face, and they were all a little stunned.

"You...are the woman His Highness brought back last night?"

Someone whispered, "This looks... too ugly, doesn't it?"

Sheng Nanzhi raised her hand and touched her face, and suddenly realized that she was wearing a human skin mask.

In order to make herself look like a fortune teller, she chose a human skin mask, which made her appearance less outstanding in comparison.

"Your Highness, do you like this kind now?"

Sheng Nanzhi almost laughed out loud, then coughed lightly, "Perhaps you all have misunderstood something."

"I was indeed brought back to the palace by the Sixth Prince, but I am not a concubine. I am not here to compete with you for your favor."

"If it's not a concubine? Then what is it?"

Sheng Nanzhi smiled and said, "Staff."

Jin Xin frowned and looked at Sheng Nanzhi suspiciously, but Sheng Nanzhi's face was indeed quite convincing.

But the staff...

She had never heard that Shi Huaizhi had a staff member, and she was a woman.

Sheng Nanzhi appeared to be quite calm and took out a pair of tortoise shells and a few copper coins from his sleeve.

"The Sixth Prince asked me to be his advisor because I'm good at fortune-telling."

"If you ladies don't mind, I can tell you your fortune."

Jin Xin narrowed her eyes slightly, walked into the room, and sat down opposite Sheng Nanzhi: "Okay, then you count it as the issue we care about most."

She said that this was the issue they were most concerned about, but she didn't say what they were concerned about.

Sheng Nanzhi didn't ask any questions and just started to tell the fortune.

She has been with Mo Qingling for so many years, and although she has no talent in fortune-telling, at least her techniques are definitely able to fool people.

Sheng Nanzhi looked down at the hexagram and frowned: "Not good."

"Your Majesty will probably grant the Sixth Prince a marriage soon."

"But this future consort of the Sixth Prince is not one to tolerate others."

When they heard this, their expressions changed at the same time: "Then what should we do?"

Sheng Nanzhi sighed: "I'm just a fortune teller, I can't change fate."

As Sheng Nanzhi finished speaking, a maid ran in from outside the courtyard. Her face was extremely grim. Before she even entered the house, she anxiously reported, "Madam Jin, it's bad. His Majesty has issued an imperial decree granting His Highness a marriage!"

"what?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Sheng Nanzhi almost immediately.

Sheng Nanzhi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Shi Huaizhi's movements were quite fast.

"Who is it?" Jin Xin asked hurriedly.

"It's the second young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Sheng Yunrou."

Hearing this answer, Jin Xin pursed her lips, not seeming too surprised.

"Is that Second Miss Sheng the one predicted by True Man Qingxu to be the Phoenix Lord of Heaven?"

"Your Majesty has arranged her marriage to our Sixth Prince? Doesn't that mean..."

"Shut up!" Jin Xin quickly turned around and interrupted the concubine: "You want to die? That's not something we can talk about."

The man quickly covered his mouth and stopped talking.

Someone frowned: "His Majesty's marriage to the Phoenix Lord should have been a good thing."

"But I've met Miss Sheng Er twice before. She does seem to have a bad temper and is quite reserved."

"If, as this... staff member said, she is intolerant, then once she enters our family, I'm afraid our lives will be difficult."

Jin Xin's thoughts turned over and over, and finally she said, "His Majesty has already granted the marriage, is there anything we can do about it?"

"We can only be more obedient and wait until the Sixth Prince's wife enters the palace. In this emergency, everyone should return to their own courtyards."

Sheng Nanzhi watched the concubines hurriedly leave, then narrowed her eyes.

These concubines are quite interesting.

Most concubines in ordinary people's houses are jealous of each other and fight for power and favor.

But Shi Huaizhi's six concubines seemed to be quite harmonious.

No arguing, just act together.

And it seems that he follows the lead of that Jin Xin.

Sheng Nanzhi fiddled with the tortoise shell and copper coins in her hand. Shi Huaizhi moved quite quickly. Now that the imperial decree granting the marriage had been issued, it wouldn't be long before she left here.

I just don't know what the situation is at the Sheng family.

Sheng Lin and Li Yueru should be very happy when they receive this imperial decree granting their marriage, right?

But Sheng Yunrou probably won't be happy.

As for the mother and son of the Wen family, I don’t know whether they will take any action.

Sheng Nanzhi curled the corners of her mouth. Things were different now than in her previous life. There were more and more obstacles to the marriage between Sheng Yunrou and Shi Huaizhi.

The good show should be on soon.

The real show has not yet begun, but in the evening, Shi Huaizhi came again.

After her rebirth, she fell into Shi Huaizhi's hands many times. Now when she sees Shi Huaizhi, she always feels a little scared.

"Greetings to the Sixth Prince." Sheng Nanzhi stood up and saluted while looking at the sky outside which had already darkened.

In the morning, several of Shi Huaizhi's concubines came to mock her. Shi Huaizhi didn't bring her here in the evening, but today he came. She suspected that he did it on purpose.

Shi Huaizhi's eyes fell on the tortoise shell and copper coins that Sheng Nanzhi placed on the table: "Staff?"

Sheng Nanzhi lowered her eyes: "If I were to say that I was the Sixth Prince's new beauty, I'm afraid it would tarnish his reputation."

"Your fortune telling is pretty accurate?" Shi Huaizhi walked over and played with the tortoise shell and copper coins: "Tell me a fortune."

Sheng Nanzhi naturally did not dare to disobey, so he just responded in a low voice, then cast a hexagram and threw the coin six times.

She stared at the hexagram for a while and said, "This hexagram for the Sixth Prince is not good. It says that the Sixth Prince may suffer a bloody disaster in the near future."

"is it?"

Shi Huaizhi raised his eyes and looked at Sheng Nanzhi: "I have some knowledge of the hexagram. Wasn't the hexagram Miss Sheng just cast a good omen? How come when it comes to Miss Sheng, it becomes a bloody disaster?"

"Ah, really?" Sheng Nanzhi looked surprised: "Then maybe I saw it wrong."

"The Sixth Prince is right. We should take the Sixth Prince's words as the standard."

Shi Huaizhi didn't dwell on this matter any further, and simply said, "Wen Tingyun's mother couldn't wait to find out where Prime Minister Sheng was today, and she ran into him in a teahouse."

"Also, under the pretext of discussing the marriage of my children, I had a secret conversation with Prime Minister Sheng for a quarter of an hour."
