Chapter 71
Today, the prince, princess and prince are all visiting the prime minister's mansion, and there is also a rare queen.

Especially the candidate for the crown prince's concubine, I have some expectations in my heart. It would be good if the empress can be directly canonized by the queen.

At this time, Lu Yingying said with a smile: "I just finished my talent show a few days ago, let's forget about it today, aren't you afraid of aesthetic fatigue?"

Gu Qingru felt that she was showing off on purpose, and she and Wang Xiluo won the opportunity on the Lantern Festival night.

Thinking of the excellent opportunity that she had at her fingertips, Gu Qingru's nameless fire rose, and her resentful eyes swept towards Shen Muxue.

"If you hadn't cheated that day, I would have shown my talent in front of His Highness last time."

Shen Muxue twitched the corners of her mouth, pretending to be gentle and generous: "Sister Gu, I fell into the water with you that day, how could you say that I cheated? If His Highness hadn't shown mercy and asked me to change my clothes in time, I'm afraid I won't be able to attend the birthday banquet today."

Gu Qingru: ...

Lu Yingying looked at them amusedly, with contempt in her eyes.

Speaking of falling into the water, a lady asked Shen Qianxia: "Miss Shen, you also fell into the water at that time. Mr. Liu searched for a long time in the lake but couldn't find it. How did you get ashore?"

Everyone looked at Shen Qianxia after hearing the words. In fact, they were also quite curious, with a bit of inquiry in their eyes.

Wang Xiluo looked at her indifferently, the smile on his face gradually froze, and his expression was slightly complicated.

Shen Qianxia smiled faintly: "When I panicked, I swam to the shore, and when I climbed to the shore, I was exhausted, and I was unable to return to the cruise ship."

Although everyone had doubts, they didn't ask any more questions after hearing what she said.

Gu Qingru sneered coldly: "You have a lot of life, some people wish you would never go ashore again."

Shen Muxue's mind was seen through, and she was confused for a moment, "Sister Gu, is this trying to provoke our sisterhood?"

Gu Qingru covered her mouth and smiled: "Your relationship is right there, do you still need to provoke?"

Lu Yingying also followed suit: "As the daughter of the Shen family, why do you still want to curry favor with her?"

Shen Muxue: ...

Did she please Shen Qianxia?

It's ridiculous, she is so noble, how can she please a lowly concubine?

Shen Muxue pulled the corners of her lips far-fetchedly: "The two younger sisters, she is the daughter of the Shen family. My uncle and I are supporting her. If it weren't for their hard work, she wouldn't have the chance to come to Beijing."

The noble girl who flattered her quickly answered: "I have long heard that the mistress of the Shen family is magnanimous, and today I saw that she is indeed so. Sister Shen is indeed the queen's concubine, and she is also tolerant."

Shen Muxue smiled sweetly, with a look of complacency on her brows.

Lu Yingying: ...

Gu Qingru: ...

They dismiss flattery.

But he knew in his heart that the identity of Princess Shen Muxue was unquestionable, so he didn't dare to offend her severely at this time.

So they transferred all their anger and unwillingness to Shen Qianxia, ​​and they thought it would kill two birds with one stone.

Not only can she show the superiority and dignity of her first daughter, but she can also unite the front with Shen Muxue, the prospective princess, without any trace.

Lu Yingying said with great reluctance: "Ms. Shen has received such a great favor from the Duke's family. She moved out of the house because of a trivial matter. It's a bit petty."

When Gu Qingru saw that Lu Yingying was wearing this head, she was not to be outdone; "In this comparison, the second lady's mind is really admirable."

Whether it is in Shangjing or elsewhere, the open and secret struggles between the concubine and the concubine are no less than the disputes between the imperial court.

It is indeed rare for someone like Shen Qianxia to be admitted to Beijing with such admiration. At this moment, most people start to look at Shen Muxue differently.
