After my whole family overheard my thoughts, they went berserk.

Shi Chenfeng coughed lightly, subconsciously reminding him to keep his distance.

Feng Yu then regained his composure and first greeted the Crown Prince.

"Greetings, Your Highness! Thank you for gracing me with your presence today!"

Shi Miaomiao lay comfortably in Si Wan'er's arms, eating candy and squinting at Feng Yu.

He was eight feet tall, with thin eyebrows and eyes, and dark skin. He wasn't exactly a handsome man, but his height was his only advantage.

In terms of looks alone, he is indeed not a good match for Princess Qingling.

"It seems that this Feng Yu is indeed very familiar with Third Brother, otherwise he wouldn't have used a woman to bribe him. It's just that Third Brother is cautious, and with the Crown Prince here, he doesn't want to reveal it."

"However, Feng Yu holds no official position, so why would Third Brother associate with him? His only purpose is to win over the Marquis's mansion and gain his favor."

Shi Youzhi frowned.

If it weren't for his own thoughts, he would have found it hard to imagine that this seemingly carefree younger brother of the emperor harbored such great ambitions.

"The Third Prince dislikes noise, so why don't we move to a private room?" Feng Yu said with a hint of flattery.

"This Feng Yu isn't quite right in the head. Has he forgotten that he's getting married today? He's acting like a lackey. Everyone else is trying their best to avoid suspicion, but he's as if he's afraid outsiders won't know."

The original book states that Feng Yu is a descendant of the Marquis of Zhongzhen, so he shouldn't be in this state.

Marquis Zhongzhen had three sons. After their coming-of-age ceremony, he took them to the battlefield. His eldest and second sons died in battle, leaving only his second son, Feng Xiu.

That is, Feng Yu's father.

However, Feng Xiu's fate was also tragic. He was captured by the enemy and became a prisoner, where he suffered a lot of torture. He eventually managed to escape, but was left with a physical disability.

Apart from Feng Yu, he had no other children.

Therefore, the Emperor felt not only gratitude towards the Marquis of Zhongzhen's household, but also a sense of indebtedness.

Shi Chenfeng said, "It has been a long time since I have gathered with my brothers. Today, I will sit here and chat with my brother."

He walked over, stood next to Si Wan'er, and gave a soft hum.

Si Wan'er knew that Shi Chenfeng had asked her to get up and give up her seat, but she pretended not to hear him and continued to playfully tease the baby in her arms.

He could only sullenly fling his clothes and sit down next to Si Wan'er.

Shi Miaomiao looked at her four older brothers sitting together, the atmosphere strangely eerie.

"I have to say, my older brothers are really good-looking, except my fourth brother is a bit of a letdown, but he's lost a lot of weight! When I grow up, I'll definitely outshine them!"

"Pfft!" The three older brothers suddenly burst out laughing.

Many people exclaimed: Where's your face?

Shi Chenfeng was completely baffled. The group looked at the little baby and grinned foolishly, still as clueless as ever!

"My third brother has lost weight lately, and the way he looks at my third sister-in-law has become more restrained. Could it be that my third sister-in-law has stood up for herself and turned against my third brother?"

Recently, Shi Chenfeng has indeed been suffering terribly.

With her immunity from death, Si Wan'er not only escaped being beaten, but sometimes even fought back. The concubines would avoid her whenever they saw her.

Dong'er was raised under her name and lived a very carefree life. He never liked reading, and she dismissed his teacher.

He spent his days eating, drinking, and having fun, without any ambition. As a result, their relationship grew better and better. Chu Yunshuang would go to him every day to cry and complain, which drove him crazy.

Si Wan'er was quite good at taking care of Shi Miaomiao, giving her a little bit of various snacks to try.

"It tastes so good! The food my third sister-in-law feeds me is always so sweet, smack smack."

While munching on the food, her eyes were also glued to the screen.

"Hey, why didn't I see my new sister-in-law today? Does that mean she has one less chance to bump into the Crown Prince?"

"My sister-in-law is showing signs of pregnancy. She must be almost seven months along. I don't know if the baby will inherit my brother's handsome looks. I wonder if she's worried about it."

"Let me see which pretty ladies came today. I wonder if any of them have bad eyesight and have taken a fancy to my unwanted second brother."

Shi Lingfeng rolled his eyes: Thank you!

"Hey, there really is someone in the crowd staring at my second brother."

Upon hearing the thought, the three older brothers all turned to look to the side.

"Isn't that Fu Qiutang? She's representing the Fu family. But she doesn't seem to be looking at my second brother. So who is she looking at?"

Shi Lingfeng looked embarrassed.

Isn't he handsome enough?

"Oh, right! I remember now."

The older brothers, their ears perked up, straightened up and instinctively moved closer to the center of the table.

Time to enjoy the gossip!

Shi Youzhi: Sometimes I really feel sorry for those who can't hear my sister's voice.

Shi Lingfeng: It's only because I'm handsome that I can hear my sister's thoughts.

Shi Yuzhi: My sister has so much gossip to share, when will we ever finish it all?

"Qiu Tang's white moonlight must be here too. The two of them are secretly having an affair, sleeping together all the time, and they even dare to dream that my second brother will be their sucker. Bah!"

In the original book, the foreshadowing was very well done in the early stages. Every time, it was written that the two of them were rolling around in bed, and the man's profile and back were described, but his face was never shown and his name was never mentioned.

Out of anger, Shi Miaomiao spat out too forcefully, landing gloriously on Shi Chenfeng's face.

"Oh no, I spat on my third brother's face! His eyes are so scary, is he going to kill me right now?"

The older brothers secretly gloated: "Finally, they're scared too?"

"Why are you feeding such a little baby so much? She's drooling all over my face. She'll need to poop soon."

Shi Chenfeng was already dissatisfied, and took the opportunity to reprimand Si Wan'er.

Si Wan'er didn't even look up, and retorted confidently.

"Don't babies need to eat? Back then, His Highness was also fed bite by bite like this."

"Well said! Third Sister-in-law is awesome and powerful!"

Shi Chenfeng's face darkened, clearly displeased, but he couldn't show it.

"Look everyone, the green tea bitch is here! I'll just quietly watch her perform!"

Qiu Tang wore a blue dress and had outstanding makeup. There were many female guests today, and she knew how to stand out.

"Greetings, Crown Prince and the princes." Qiu Tang bowed gently to everyone, then looked at Shi Lingfeng with affection: "Second Prince, it's been a long time."

"In front of everyone, isn't she trying to make it clear to everyone that my second brother and she might have some kind of ambiguous relationship?"

Shi Lingfeng blurted out, "You're mistaken, we met last time!"

"Pfft, if this were a girl he liked, wouldn't she be so angry that she would turn around and run away? Sure enough, my second brother is dazzling wherever he goes. He is the epitome of the Second High School."

Qiu Tang felt embarrassed and subconsciously looked towards Shi Chenfeng.

When he saw Chen Feng, he remained unmoved, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

At this moment, she felt extremely bitter.

She envied Si Wan'er, who could sit openly beside him, laughing and chatting with everyone, and getting along well with the little princess.

She could only ever find solace in the Qingya Pavilion with him, to ease the pain of their longing.
