Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 413 Will You Get Married?

But she must complete the tasks assigned by the Lord.The so-called enemy's enemy is a friend. Since their enemy is the same person, a temporary alliance is not impossible.

"Fourth aunt, why is it you?"

Shen Wanqing was the first to recover, she frowned slightly.The doubt in her eyes was fleeting, but she quickly covered it up.

No wonder when she saw the note, she felt that the word looked familiar.Now think about the exquisite small characters on hairpin flowers, isn't it what Si Yiniang Si is best at.

"Hehe, Second Miss is very surprised. When I left the Hou Mansion, how could I be sitting here like this today?"

Si Ruling stroked the pair of excellent jade bracelets on her wrists, and spoke softly.That soft voice, like the continuous drizzle in the Jiangnan water town, dripped on people's hearts, crisp and cool.

"It seems that the second aunt is well-off now." Shen Wanqing smiled slightly, looking calmly at the fourth aunt who was dressed in fine clothes.But in my heart I was surprised, this outfit was much better than that of ordinary official wives.

"The second aunt and the second lady are invited to come here today, just to talk about the matter of the eldest lady. I think the second aunt and the second lady also want to get rid of the eldest lady, as long as the eldest lady is removed, they want to deal with the madam and the second aunt. It's an easy thing to say. At that time, as long as Zhen Zhaoyi in the palace and Master Su in the court do their best. I think it will be a matter of time before the second aunt will be corrected. At that time, the second lady will be the concubine of the Hou family. .Then when the crown prince ascends the throne, his position in the harem will definitely be below one person and above ten thousand people."

Si Ruling didn't answer Shen Wanqing's words, and also ignored the contempt in Shen Wanqing's tone.She didn't intend to waste time with the second aunt, mother and daughter, and escaped the temptation that few people could refuse.

It's also fortunate that she has been living in the Hou's Mansion for these years, and she is very clear about the thoughts in Shen Wanqing and Second Aunt's mind.She didn't believe it, once the temptation was thrown out, they still refused?

Sure enough, Second Aunt and Shen Wanqing fell silent, deep thought appeared in their eyes.She raised the corners of her mouth and smiled coldly and contemptuously.She didn't think that the two mother and daughter would give up this opportunity.So she didn't make a sound, and let the two of them think deeply.

After a while, Second Aunt and Shen Wanqing withdrew their thoughts.They glanced at each other and saw each other's decision in each other's eyes.

"Have you made a decision?"

Si Ruling put down the cup in her hand, raised one eyebrow and looked at the two who looked up at her.

"Okay, but I want to know how we will cooperate?"

Second Auntie patted Shen Wanqing's hand, blocking what Shen Wanqing wanted to say.She looked at Si Ruling indifferently, and said slowly.

A flash of surprise flashed in Si Ruling's eyes, the second aunt now seemed to have recovered to the former second aunt who called the wind and rain in the Hou's mansion.This familiar look made her dazed for a moment.

"You don't have to ask too much about this, you just need to do what I tell you." Si Ruling smiled slightly, then took out a medicine bag from her bosom and threw it to Second Aunt.

"Put this medicinal powder in Yunmanrou's old lady's meal, and you can decide how much to use."

Second Yiniang took the medicine bag in her hand, narrowed her eyes slightly: "You want me to poison the old lady and Yun Manrou?" She hesitated slightly, she had poisoned Yun Manrou before.But in the end, she was detoxified by that girl Shen Wanyu. She didn't expect that girl to hide it so deeply.

If it hadn't been revealed later that she was the ghost doctor's closed disciple, she would have known that the poison she had poisoned back then was cured by that bitch.It's true that they underestimated Lian her, never expecting her to hide deeply enough.

"Poisoning is definitely not an option. That bitch Shen Wanyu has good medical skills. She will definitely detoxify the old lady and that bitch Yun Manrou. If she finds it out then"

Before Second Aunt could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Si Ruling's impatient voice.

"You don't need to worry about this. Shen Wanyu won't find out about this poison. Even if the ghost doctor comes, he won't be able to find out."

Si Ruling is very clear about her master's ability, as long as it is what the master wants to do, she will never be unable to do it.It's just a little Shen Wanyu, who can still beat her master.

Hearing Si Ruling's words, Shen Wanqing and Second Aunt frowned slightly.But when he thought of the temptation, he finally nodded in response.

"Then if something happens, how can we find you?"

Second Aunt rolled her eyes, thinking about this matter is quite risky.She had to find another way out for herself and her daughter.I have to say that Second Aunt is much smarter than before.

"If you have anything to do, you can just ask the gardener in the Hou's mansion who tends the flower garden." Si Ruling lowered her head slightly, and said in an indifferent voice.

Shen Wanqing and Second Aunt's heart skipped a beat, they didn't expect Si Ruling to have a hidden stake in the Hou's residence.And this hidden pile turned out to be that humble gardener, which is really unexpected.

"Okay, you go back if you have nothing else to do. You must have sneaked out too. If you go back late, be careful not to be discovered." Si Ruling didn't want to see the mother and daughter again, so she simply waved her hand and issued an order to evict her.

Second Yiniang and Shen Wanqing naturally didn't want to stay longer, they got up and left Tingxuelou in a hurry.

Shen Wanqing and Second Aunt left Tingxuelou, boarded the carriage and headed towards Beininghou Mansion.

In the carriage, Shen Wanqing's face was a little gloomy, thinking that the fourth aunt who was once looked down upon by her now treats her and her mother with such a contemptuous attitude.A wave of anger rose in my heart, as if a tiger had fallen into Pingyang and was being bullied by a dog.

"This Fourth Aunt seems to have really flown up to the branch. Seeing her posture, she looks like the matriarch of a family who holds a lot of power. She is so contemptuous of my mother and me."

Second Aunt gently patted Shen Wanqing's hand, she didn't have much feeling about this.This person is the same, if she and Si's positions were reversed, she might do the same.

"Qing'er, remember that you don't need to care about other people's attitudes. You have to be clear about your goals and firmly grasp the prince's heart. The more he loves you, the higher your status will be. As long as Your status is high, are you afraid that those people will dare to despise you again?"

Hearing what Second Aunt said, Shen Wanqing nodded.But her brows were slightly frowned, thinking that the two women still live in the Prince's Mansion.She felt a little uneasy in her heart, the crown princess and the crown prince's side concubine are both talented and beautiful women.Can the prince not be tempted?
In this year's time, the two of them probably already had their own confidants.When I get married next year, I will start a step later than others.Will it be grasped by those two people?

"Mother, I got it." Even though her heart was in a mess, Shen Wanqing's face didn't show it at all.She lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked in the direction of the palace.Those dark eyes were full of determination and firmness at this moment.

How could Second Aunt not know her daughter's thoughts, her heart is very big.It doesn't stop at the imperial concubine position, but the most honorable position for women in the whole world.

Along the way, neither of them spoke again.They were all caught up in their own thoughts.

In the palace, the queen mother heard Shen Wanyu enter the palace to pay her respects.Immediately let Nanny Gui beside her go and invite the person in.

Seeing Shen Wanyu, who was pale, but had a good complexion.The Queen Mother's heart was completely relieved, she took Shen Wanyu's hand distressedly and asked her to sit beside her.

"Let Aijia take a look, and see that she has lost a whole circle of weight. My child, I made you suffer this time."

Shen Wanyu shook her head, shaking the Empress Dowager's arm coquettishly.The voice was delicate and soft, and he opened his mouth happily.

"Yu'er is protected so quickly by the Queen Mother's blessings. It's not suffering, but Wanyu has benefited a lot from this matter."

The queen mother reached out and pinched Shen Wanyu's nose, and gave her a look: "You girl, you have a sweet mouth, and you can make my family happy."

"Empress, this Yu girl has a sweet mouth. Not only can she make you happy, but she can also make me happy to coax you away a lot of rewards. Even the emperor, she has been coaxed away a lot reward."

The queen looked at the shy Shen Wanyu, and shook her head: "I think it's time for lunch, why don't Ruo Yuer stay here to accompany the queen mother and Bengong to have lunch together."

Shen Wanyu nodded, naturally she would not ignore the Queen's words.

"Empress Dowager, after the individual qualifying match of the four-nation competition is over, will the emperor hold a banquet?"

According to the practice of previous years, the host country will hold a banquet after the end of the four-nation contest.

"Yes, what's the matter. During this time, we are also preparing for this matter."

The queen mother knew Shen Wanyu well, and knew that she would not ask about this matter for no reason.There must be something to ask.

Shen Wanyu narrowed her eyes slightly, she always had a worry in her heart.She thought for a while before opening her mouth with some hesitation.

"Empress Dowager, if it is at a banquet, if other countries propose marriage, the emperor will generally not refuse, will he?"

The queen mother was slightly taken aback, let alone mentioning it at the banquet.Even envoys from other countries came to express their desire to get married.Under normal circumstances, the emperor would not refuse.

"Why did you suddenly ask this question, did you hear something?"

Shen Wanyu lowered her head slightly, pulling her long sleeves with her fingers.A little embarrassed, but also a little shy.

"Yu'er feels... that Princess Ziyue seems to like her husband very much, so she wonders if Emperor Beimu proposes a marriage with the emperor. Will the emperor agree?"

Hearing Shen Wanyu's words, the empress dowager and queen were taken aback for a moment.Then the expressions on their faces became serious, as they seemed to have ignored this question all this time.
