Spoiled Wife

0The Xu naturally wanted to cause trouble, but before she could say anything, Shen Weiyuan had already placed all of his interests in front of her. Murdering a descendant was a heinous crime, the Emperor was merciful enough to not investigate into Shang Shu Manor's responsibility, what else do you want?    0

    

No matter how inexperienced the Xu was towards politics, he still knew the crime of conspiracy. Thus, he was truly a little afraid at this time, and knew that even the Shang Shu Manor would not be able to save the Shen Fei.    

    

Furthermore, due to the serious situation, the old lady could no longer sit still and directly exercised her right to be the most respected in the Shang Shu Manor, suppressing the Xu to the extent where she could not harm the Shang Shu Manor's interests.    

    

The old lady was rather strict at the time, "If you really did something that would harm the Shang Shu Manor, then you don't have to stay in the Shen family anymore. The Shang Shu Manor can't afford a daughter-in-law that doesn't care about the life and death of her family."    

    

Her words were serious, scaring the Xu. Although the Old Granny did not usually take care of things, her words still carried a lot of weight, and might not pose any threat to her in other matters. However, this matter was really hard to explain, so the Xu did not dare to cause a ruckus.    

    

If his words had some weight now, then it would be King's Mansion. Xu had no choice but to admit that only the little girl whom he had ignored could save eldest daughter.    

    

However, Shen Weiyuan was already prepared for this move. He already had a daughter who had joined the imperial family, he couldn't let his daughter be implicated too.    

    

Shen Weiyuan did not believe that she would give up just like that. After living together for so many years, he was very clear about her personality.    

    

After that, Shen Qi was not disturbed by her. After the assassination attempt in the palace, Shen Qi was extremely disgusted by the matter of him entering the palace, and especially took Chu Feng with him.    

    

Ever since that time, Shen Qi had been worried about the beginning. Even after sleeping with her for several nights, he still hadn't been able to stop her from having nightmares at night.    

    

Watching from the side, King Duo's face was filled with pain and helplessness. At the same time, his eyes were filled with deep profoundness, it seemed like letting Consort De go crazy like this was too easy a deal for her.    

    

Right now, even if Shen Qi was in the daytime, she would still try her best to accompany Chu Yuechan by her side, and slowly let her out of that shadow in her heart.    

    

With the thing that shifted his gaze, he very quickly forgot about what had happened before. Now that he could see her carefree smile, Shen Qi felt that it was extremely precious.    

    

She watched the play at the beginning of the day as she organized the account books. Then, she saw Forou coming in, "Esteemed wangfei, this is the card that the Shang Shu Manor has sent to you." As he spoke, he handed over the invitation in his hand.    

    

Shen Qi sighed, what was coming would eventually come. She stretched out her hand and took it, and unexpectedly, it was Xia Ying's name. She thought for a moment, then asked directly: "Esteemed wangfei, do you want to see it?"    

    

Shen Qi waved her hand, "Let them come tomorrow." It was better to meet them. Hiding was not an option either.    

    

The maidservants wanted to say something, but they hesitated. Shen Qi found it funny, "Don't worry, I know what to do." She was, after all, from the same family as her mother. Unless she broke off their relationship, it would only be a matter of time before they met again.    

    

After hearing her words, Lian Qiuwei and the others didn't say anything further. As long as the wangfei had a plan in her heart, it was fine.    

    

Not long after breakfast on the second day, Bai Zhi ran over to Shen Qi, "Royal Concubine, Shang Shu Manor has arrived."    

    

So early? Then he smiled. "Please come in."    

    

Bai Zhi looked like she was hesitating to speak. Shen Qi looked at her weirdly and asked, "What's wrong?"    

    

"Only Madam came." She said somewhat hesitantly.    

    

Shen Qi laughed when she heard this. As expected, the person who handed over the thread in Xia Ying's name was actually the Xu. Please come in. " It was impossible for the elders to keep her out, even though they knew what she was up to.    

    

Bai Zhi said that since the Lady Xu came here on her own, it meant that she came here on her own. She didn't even bring a servant with her.    

    

When Shen Qi saw her, she raised his eyebrows. It was obvious that she was hiding this from her family, and as expected, her goal was very obvious.    

    

When she entered, the moment she saw Shen Qi, she unexpectedly went up and bowed very respectfully.    

    

Shen Qi smiled and signaled Zi Zhu to help her up, "Madam, no need to be so courteous, please sit.    

    

The Xu smiled a little forcefully, and even if he sat down, he still hung in the air. Shen Qi then passionately ordered Bai Zhi to serve him tea and snacks, then smiled at her, "Are you alright, Madam? How is the Old Ancestor? Is father well? "    

    

Xu naturally answered with a smile, "Good, good, all good." He then took a sip of the tea uncomfortably.    

    

Shen Qi talked a lot more with sher without asking her the purpose of this trip. Seeing Shen Qi continuously greeting her with a smile, Xu felt stifled, unable to vent out her anger. After all, he still had to rely on her.    

    

In the end, after drinking a whole stomach full of tea and seeing that Shen Qi still could not talk about proper matters, she became anxious, and after hesitating for a while, she seemed to have made a decision, "Has the wangfei seen the Fifth Prince yet?"    

    

Shen Qi put down the cup in her hands, she could not hold back anymore and nodded her head, "Madam, don't worry, the Fifth Prince is doing very well." The Fifth Prince was currently in the of the empress dowager, and had palace maids and eunuchs wait on him. Although he still wanted to have the matriarch, his life had not treated him unfairly.    

    

Xu suddenly became excited, "How can it be good? Shen Fei is already like that. "    

    

Shen Qi calmly looked at her, "Then you mean to say that it's not good for the Fifth Prince?"    

    

The Xu immediately retorted, "I didn't mean it that way, you obviously knew it." She could tell that this daughter of hers was doing this on purpose, so she couldn't hold in her anger anymore.    

    

Seeing Shen Qi look coldly at her, she knew that it would be useless to try to pull some strings with her, so she asked directly: "Tell me, what do you want to do before you are willing to help Shen Fei?" She felt that Shen Qi would very likely humiliate her.    

    

In the end, Shen Qi looked at her and asked, "I wonder how Madam would like me to help?"    

    

When Xu heard this, she thought Shen Qi was willing to help, but she immediately rejoiced in her heart, and was even a little proud of herself. No matter how she treated, she didn't dare to disobey her mother's orders!    

    

Thus, he directly said, "Let the prince go and beg the emperor to release the Shen Fei." How big a deal is it worth to send someone into a cold palace?    

    

Shen Qi was speechless when he saw her. Xu's IQ had plummeted the moment she encountered the Shen Fei, and that was enough for her!    

    

She remained calm and collected, wanting to see just how many wondrous ideas she had. Thus, she asked, "Will the emperor's decision be changed by the prince?" Moreover, this was the emperor's family matter.    

    

"Who doesn't know that King Duanren is His Majesty's right-hand man? The Emperor has a lot of trust in him, so I believe that as long as he requests for it, the Emperor will definitely be willing to give him this face."    

    

The emperor had sent his concubine into a cold palace. What was a prince going to plead for when word spread outside? And even if the others didn't say anything, the prince concubine who had been convicted by the emperor for murdering his son would still plead for mercy. Where would he place the royal family's face, where would he place the emperor's dignity?    

    

His thoughts were always so simple, but how could there be such a simple matter in this world? It was too much to take for granted that two lips would work the moment they touched.    

    

Just based on this matter alone, what was the relationship between the Shen Fei and King Duanren, and what was her relationship with him? Why did he have to deal with someone who would rather die than die for him? She's not the Virgin.    

    

Therefore, she didn't want to waste words with her and directly said, "I'm afraid that won't do. Madam also knows that my prince is the Emperor's right-hand man, so it's natural that he's anxious for the emperor. My prince naturally won't do things that make things difficult for the emperor."    

    

Xu could no longer remain calm, "What is the meaning of this?"    

    

There was a ridiculing smile on Shen Qi's lips. Making her sit with him for so long really made things difficult for her!    

    

He picked up the teacup and lightly sipped before placing it down with a smile. "Madam clearly knows what that means."    

    

The moment she saw Xu, she immediately exploded, fiercely standing up, "You don't intend to save me right?"    

    

The fact that Shen Qi did not react and only looked at her indifferently infuriated her even more. She was already depressed enough within the Palace during this period of time, but now that she had put down her status and begged her, Xu felt that it was intolerable!    

    

He pointed at Shen Qi and cursed, "You really are a jinx. Not only are you not adamant on life, you are also your own big sister.    

    

The more he spoke, the more he felt that he was right. "Who knows, maybe you're the one who countered Shen Fei. She was fine all those years ago, why did something happen to her after you married into the Prince's Mansion ?"    

    

"Shut up!" A scolding stopped her from speaking any more. However, she had said almost everything she shouldn't have.    

    

Hearing this familiar voice, Xu immediately shivered, he turned his head and saw a stern Duke Yuan leading a furious Shen Weiyuan in, and the scolding came from Shen Weiyuan's mouth.    

    

However, when he looked at the Prince, whose body was emitting cold air, he suppressed his anger and begged for forgiveness, "Your Highness, please forgive me for not saying a few words, but when I return, I will definitely teach you a good lesson."    

    

Then he raised his head and looked at his daughter who was watching him with cold eyes and an expressionless face. He felt a burst of guilt in his heart and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.    

    

When he heard that the servant said that the Madam had disappeared, he immediately rushed towards the Duke Palaces. In the end, he was still a step too late.    

    

When Shen Qi saw the cold expression on the prince's face, she wanted to stand up and comfort him. After all, it wasn't worth getting angry at an insignificant person, so she didn't want to ruin her own body.    

    

However, just as she wanted to go over, she felt weightless and powerless. Before she fainted, she heard Zi Zhu and the others exclaim in surprise and King Duanren cry out in panic, "Xiao Qi!"    

    

Then she lost consciousness.    

    

When Shen Qi woke up again, he found that everyone around him was smiling. She blinked her eyes, what in the world happened in a place I don't know about? Why were all of them looking at her with such terrifying gazes?    

    

Especially King Xian's eyes, which were full of smiles. Seeing that she had woken up, he gently asked her, "Is there anything wrong with Xiao Qi?" What do you want to eat? "    

    

Shen Qi:... Can anyone tell me what happened?    

    

Seeing that Shen Qi had woken up, Zi Zhu and the others started working happily. Zi Li brought the bird's nest porridge over, while Duke Xiang carefully helped her up, and then took the bird's nest to feed her.    

    

Shen Qi:... Why did it feel like she was suffering from a terminal illness?    

    

She dodged his attempt to feed her and reached for the bowl. "I'll do it myself." He then asked with some curiosity, "Prince, what's wrong with me?" Actually, what she wanted to ask was what happened to you? Why is it so abnormal?    

    

The corner of King Duan's mouth curled up slightly as he reached out to touch her lower abdomen. "Don't be hungry for this prince's son."    

    

At this time, all of the servants left tactfully, giving them space. Shen Qi blinked, and counted with her fingers, it seemed like, maybe ten days or so later, she was pregnant again?    

    

She stretched out her hand to touch her belly but she still found it unbelievable. How did it happen again so soon?    

    

While she was still in a state of shock, Duanren Emperor had already picked up her bird's nest congee and started to feed it to Shen Qi. Shen Qi, on the other hand, unknowingly opened her mouth to only react a little after she finished eating the bowl of congee.    

    

She wasn't sure if it was just an illusion, but she felt that she had become a lot more sluggish. This was something that hadn't happened when she was just a child.    

    

Shen Qi raised her head and looked towards the door. Indeed, after a while, the wet nurse came in, carrying him in her arms. The moment she entered the door, she was about to slide off the wet nurse's body.    

    

After the wet nurse paid her respects to the wangfei, she was sent off by King Duanren. At the beginning, she had a happy smile on her face as she ran over to Shen Qi, looking left and right, as if searching for something.    

    

Shen Qi touched her head, "What were you looking for at the beginning?"    

    

"Little brother." She raised her head to look at her mother. The wet nurse had told her that she was going to have a younger brother, but where was he? Why hadn't she seen him? Did his mother hide him?    

    

Just as Shen Qi wanted to ask how she knew that it was his little brother and not his little sister, Duke Yuan just directly hugged his daughter and pulled her hand onto Shen Qi's stomach, "Brother is in here, so from now on, don't let your mother hug you, you'll have to pressure your little brother."    

    

At the beginning, he blinked his big eyes as he asked with a surprised expression, "Why is little brother in mother's stomach? How did you put him in there? "    

    

Shen Qi quietly turned her head. She knew that she would ask this question, but she wanted to see how the Prince would answer this profound question.    

    

King Xian didn't expect her to ask such a question. He was a bit stunned, but when he saw his daughter's innocent eyes filled with doubt, he felt that he was overthinking it. He thought for a moment and then said seriously, "Because little brother is still too young, we should put him in mother's stomach to protect him."    

    

At the beginning, she nodded as if she understood, but she still remembered that her father said that her brother was too young. Then, she thought that her brother was born the same age as her, so she could play with him.    

    

Thus, with such fervent expectations in mind, he watched his mother's belly grow bigger and bigger. Every day at the beginning of the year, she would spend it in pleasant surprise. This was another story that he would talk about later.    

    

Right now, Shen Qi was more concerned about how the King would punish the Xu after she fainted.    

    

She looked at the prince and asked, "Prince, where are my father and the rest?"    

    

He never thought that the Xu would actually treat her like that. Previously, he had only ignored her, but now, he had actually started to ruthlessly insult her. Did she think that anyone could casually insult his wangfei?    

    

He dared to act like this in the Prince's Mansion, then what would happen if he stayed in the Shang Shu Manor? When he thought about the grievances that the wangfei had suffered in a corner that he did not know of, Duke Xian couldn't help but let out a cold breath, his eyes filled with heartache. At the same time, he was extremely dissatisfied with the Xu.    

    

He didn't want her to know, but hearing her question, he chose to tell her the truth.    

    

"This King deprived her of her title and ordered her to think about it at home. If she can't learn the rules, then she shouldn't casually leave the manor." King Duan observed Shen Qi's expression as she spoke, but when he saw that she was not dissatisfied, she became relieved.    

    

But he still asked, "Will you plead on her behalf?" If he took away the title that she was so proud of, then she wouldn't be able to do anything. Not only that, but she wouldn't be able to stop him in time. This punishment wasn't light either.    

    

Hearing his words, Shen Qi laughed and shook his head, "No." Then, he mocked, "Do you think that I'm unfilial and heartless?"    

    

King Xian reached out to grab her hand. "What need is there to care about the thoughts of others? You're This King's wangfei. This King thinks that wangfei is very good like this."    

    

Receiving the nod from the Prince, Shen Qi's heart was filled with joy. She pursed her lips and smiled, thinking about something in her heart.
