If King Xian was unhappy about what Shen Weiyuan had done to him, why couldn't his Royal Concubine do such a thing? Thus, he impatiently waved his hand. "Royal Consort is very good. Father-in-law doesn't need to do this."    

    

This time, the few of them could see that King Duan was very satisfied with the wangfei. Shen Jianing saw that Third Sister's expression was even better than her, and when she saw that Third Sister was doing well, she felt a bit more at ease.    

    

However, when he faced Xiao Qi, he unconsciously softened his expression. Xiao Qi's complexion was not bad, she should be doing well, and her speech in front of Duke Xian was not that restrained, so Duke Xian was actually very happy that Wang Fei had spoken before him.    

    

Furthermore, he would speak up to protect his wangfei. No matter how you looked at it, it didn't seem like the rumors in the outside world that disliked her, so the moment you woke up, you brought back a beauty to slap her on the face. It seemed like the rumors were not believable!    

    

The old lady was happy that Shen Qi was able to win over Duke Wei, because this was a prince. If she could win his favor, then wouldn't it be beneficial for her in the future?    

    

Lady Xu was still neither cold nor hot. Seeing that Shen Qi's actions seemed to have nothing to do with her, Shen Fei sent a message saying that she would not provoke Shen Qi first, and would only decide after seeing the situation in the future. Therefore, Lady Xu felt that there was no need to care about how Shen Qi was doing.    

    

In any case, this daughter of hers was not the same heart as him, so if she wasn't good, she might be able to hold back a little, because she still had to rely on her parents. If she lived a good life, then she would be even more unrestrained, so compared to being pampered by the King, Shen Qi being unfavoured was actually more beneficial to them.    

    

No matter how everyone reacted, they still came to the Palace together. Duke Yuan was welcomed by Shen Weiyuan, who brought his son and his second son-in-law, and Shen Qi, who accompanied them.    

    

In fact, when Shen Qi saw Shen Jianing, he was quite shocked as well. She didn't think that this Second Sister would also choose to return to the manor today.    

    

The moment they sat down in the Flower Hall, Lady Xu grabbed Shen Jianing and asked for her advice, completely ignoring Shen Qi. Chui felt really awkward, but luckily the old lady kept holding Shen Qi's hand and did not show how cold she was towards the princess.    

    

"Greetings to Esteemed Empress Dowager after entering the palace?" The old lady had brought a quest with her today, so Shen Weiyuan knew that the Lady Xu wouldn't ask about Shen Qi's inner chamber.    

    

The old lady also knew that this concerned Shen Qi's position as the wangfei in the Duke Palaces so she was still more considerate towards her. However, she also knew that she shouldn't directly ask about this to make the wangfei sad, so she asked in a roundabout way.    

    

Shen Qi smiled as she replied, "I will be going. Queen Mother is worried about your health and always wants to call me to the palace to report back."    

    

"Is the empress dowager well?" The old lady smiled and nodded before asking with concern.    

    

"Alright, everything is fine. Imperial Mother, if you knew that you were thinking about her body, you would definitely be very happy." Shen Qi smiled and said something that made the old lady very satisfied.    

    

As expected, the old lady's smile widened, but she didn't forget her important business. The reason why she helped the empress dowager with her current position was because her granddaughter was smart enough to give her face.    

    

"Is everything all right at home? King Duanren treats you well? " In her opinion, this was simply not a matter for her. Shen Qi being unable to get married before the age of 30, taking in a concubine as a concubine was normal human nature, as long as he was given the face of an imperial concubine, giving enough respect to other things was not a big deal.    

    

That man didn't have three wives, let alone a prince of the imperial court. The old lady didn't think so from the start. She also didn't think that her granddaughter could have the ability to make a prince only have her as a woman.    

    

Shen Qi smiled as she replied, "Thank you for your concern, Old Ancestor. Good, everything is good." No matter what goal she had, if she was willing to ask him, it would be a hundred times better than being a mother.    

    

When the old lady asked this question, even Shen Jianing stopped talking to Lady Xu, and gazed at Shen Qi, wanting to know how she would say it. In fact, she also wanted to ask Shen Qi whether she was well or not, but when she entered, she immediately pulled on her mother's hand and asked her questions. Although she knew that her mother was wrong, she was still her own senior, so she couldn't really say much.    

    

Thus, when the old lady asked that question, she didn't pay any more attention to the Lady Xu, who was listening to their conversation earnestly. However, hearing Shen Qi's casual reply, she still felt uncomfortable in her heart.    

    

She had a good relationship with Xue Yang, and they could be considered to be in the midst of a wedding, there were no such things in the house, but thinking about it, she felt that it was unacceptable for Xue Yang to bring a woman in from the outside.    

    

"At that time, marrying was already a grievance, so how could he treat you like this?" Shen Jianing could not help but shout out loud. As a noble person, her words would not come in many twists and turns, directly asking the core of the question.    

    

Lady Xu frowned and pulled Shen Jianing along, thinking that she should not have asked about Shen Qi's matters. When Shen Qi heard Second Sister's words, she was shocked, she did not expect her to fight for him, no matter what, it was out of concern for him, and she was not the kind of person who did not know what was good for her.    

    

Furthermore, the two of them had already married, so there was no need to worry about the Lady Xu being dissatisfied with their close relationship with him, thus Shen Qi smiled and said: "Second Sister does not need to worry, the prince does not have any other thoughts, and he only brought them back because he does not want to be troubled in the future."    

    

Everyone was intelligent, so they didn't understand what was going on when they heard this. It was that the empress dowager was an elder, and that the elder was unable to refuse. In order for the empress dowager not to make things difficult for Shen Qi, Duke Xiang had brought the person back, but he had no intention of taking her in.    

    

"That's good. He has some conscience after all." Shen Jianing was really worthy to be that Shen Jianing, and only she dared to say those words. Shen Qi had always known that this Second Sister looked cold on the surface, but she was actually kind-hearted. It was just that she wasn't used to acting so intimate with others.    

    

Just as Shen Jianing finished speaking, the Lady Xu left immediately: "Jia Ning, what are you saying?" As she spoke, she looked at Shen Qi, as if afraid that Shen Qi would leak these words to King Duan.    

    

The old lady actually did not agree with Shen Jianing's words. After all, she was a dignified Duke, so even if he went a bit overboard with her words, it would still be within her responsibility. Furthermore, she should not feel wronged that she had helped the prince.    

    

At this time, Chui was not in a good position to reply, so Shen Qi smiled and said, "Second Sister is right, it seems that Second Sister Fu is very good to Second Sister." Just make fun of him and round it up.    

    

Shen Jianing was shy but did not hesitate. She pursed her lips and smiled, breaking the usual coldness, and added a bit of charm to it.    

    

In terms of appearance, Shen Jianing was actually even more beautiful than Shen Jiahui, but because Shen Jianing was usually cold and detached, and looked like she wasn't easy to approach, she was forcefully covered up by Shen Jiahui's charm.    

    

After that, they began to talk about clothes and accessories in a harmonious manner.    

    

During the meal, the male and female were separated. Shen Qi on the other hand, was still alright because her presence made the Lady Xu feel more at ease.    

    

On the other hand, King Duanren's side was not so harmonious. They couldn't teach this noble brother-in-law a lesson elsewhere. Wasn't pouring wine enough?    

    

Thus, Shen Jiayan took the lead as his four brothers continuously went up on stage to toast and toast Duke Yuan. Even Shen Weiyuan took advantage of this opportunity to let him drink a few cups, and then, as expected, Duke Yuan became drunk.    

    

At this time, Shen Weiyuan felt that he had overdone it. He had even drunk his master's wine, what was wrong with that.    

    

No one would be able to support her, hence she kept calling her 'consort'. Shen Weiyuan had no choice but to send someone to inform Shen Qi to take care of Duanren Emperor.    

    

Shen Qi came over and almost laughed when she saw his current appearance. A pair of eyes was clear and bright, and his usually cold face was dyed red, causing his entire face to look like a crown jade. She breathed in cold air at whoever approached him, and a pair of eyes that radiated Yan Yi's might glared at him.    

    

Shen Qi walked over, he immediately grabbed Shen Qi's hand and shouted: "Xiao Qi." Her voice was full of joy, as if she had discovered some fun toy to share with her friends.    

    

After being stunned for a while, Shen Qi knew that her father or brothers had inadvertently said those words for him to remember. She laughed and asked: "Does Your Highness want to drink water?"    

    

King Gong nodded, he did not look like a person who was drunk at all. If it wasn't for the fact that he could do a lot of things when he was awake, Shen Qi would have suspected that he was just pretending.    

    

Shen Qi poured a cup of water for him and passed it over, who knew that she would not even need to take it, and directly drank it from Shen Qi's hand? Since Shen Qi was unable to, and couldn't treat it as drunk, he slanted the cup and fed half a cup to him.    

    

"Shall I help the prince to rest?" It was definitely impossible to leave at this time. It was better to wake him up with some wine first.    

    

King Duan nodded his head again and didn't say a word, he just stared straight at Shen Qi. There was nothing Shen Qi could do, she could only apologize to her father and brothers, "I'll take him to rest first."    

    

Shen Weiyuan nodded his head, "The guest rooms are ready, let the servant lead the way."    

    

Who knew that at this time, Duke Xiang, who was holding Shen Qi's hand, said, "Go to Xiao Qi's place." He didn't want to go to the guest room, so she kept a trace of clarity in his heart.    

    

As a prince, he had previously been a prince, but now he was the empress dowager's second son. He had always been a thorn in the side in the eyes of the various palaces in the imperial palace, wishing that he could get rid of it as soon as possible.    

    

Later on, as King Xian had to walk on the edge of a blade to live on and fight on the battlefield to kill his enemies, he could not tolerate even the slightest bit of carelessness.    

    

However, these words made Shen Jiayan even more dissatisfied. He felt that Duke Xiang was definitely pretending to be drunk, he was too crafty!
