Spoiled Wife - C70
Afterwards, Feng Kang couldn’t help but admire Princess Hua-Yang’s foresight. Indeed, there were people who investigated Wang Ruoyan and wanted to take him away. Fortunately, he had been prepared in advance when she heard Princess Hua-Yang’s question, otherwise, she might not have been able to keep her promise.
Such a secretive place had actually been investigated by someone. If Feng Kang was not sure that these people were completely loyal to the Duke, Feng Kang would have to suspect that there was a traitor within him!
When he turned back to report to Shen Qi, Feng Kang intentionally glanced at the wangfei, wanting to know how she looked, and how she could predict things so well.
It was just out of caution, she wanted to know the purpose of the person behind her. She always had a feeling that a pair of invisible hands was behind her back, wanting to stir up this seemingly calm pool of water.
The Wang family tried their best to distance themselves from their relationship, while the empress dowager ground her teeth in anger. “What Miss Wang? Since they’re all dead, why are they here?” The meaning of these words was that regardless of the reason, Miss Wang must die.
Furthermore, she did not plan on letting the Wang family go. How could the people from the royal family be so easy to fool?
After Xie Shihan found out what happened, she specially went to see Shen Qi, and discovered that she seemed to be at ease as if nothing had happened, making him feel more at ease.
He walked up to her and sat down, teasing her with a smile, “You sure are open-minded. You don’t know how many people outside are worried about you.”
Shen Qi smiled, “Is that so? “I don’t know when I became so important to everyone.” She also replied with a taunt.
Xie Shihan shook his head, “You’re not worried at all?” Even though she felt that the rumors of Prince Duanren behaving in observance of the Wang family’s Miss were hilarious, how could a person like Prince Duanren act in respect to a woman he hadn’t seen for a few times? Just thinking about it made him feel that it was impossible.
But is it really okay for Shen Qi to be this calm? After all, she didn’t know what King Duanren’s attitude was, right?
Hearing Xie Shihan’s words, Shen Qi’s expression did not change much, “What’s the use of worrying about something that did not happen? It won’t be too late to worry about it when it comes to it. ”
“Isn’t it too late by then?” Xie Shihan asked doubtfully.
Xie Shihan choked, yes, was it too early? Since things had already turned out like this, there was no point worrying about it. It was better to look at Duke Xian’s attitude and say that if Duke Xian really liked the young miss of the Wang Family, no matter how capable Shen Qi was, it would all be useless.
On the other hand, if Prince Duan did not have that Miss Wang Ruoyan in his heart, then this matter would be easier to handle.
After thinking it through, Xie Shihan finally relaxed, “You’re still the most considerate one. I’m overthinking it.” After saying that, she laughed, “That’s true, how could you be so smart to be trapped in such a situation? I was overthinking it.”
Shen Qi smiled at her, held her hand and said sincerely: “I still have to thank you!” She could tell that Xie Shihan was worried about her, otherwise she wouldn’t have come over here in a hurry.
Xie Shihan waved her hand, “Alright, don’t thank me. I just want to see the attitude of Queen’s Consort, who is the focus of attention in the capital.
After she finished speaking, the two of them looked at each other and smiled. They knew it was good that they knew it was okay, but they were being hypocritical just because they were best friends.
At the same time, Yan Wan also went to the Tzu Ning Palace to see the empress dowager. She did not put Shen Qi in her eyes because she knew how Shen Qi had married into the King’s Mansion.
So she wanted to see what the empress dowager’s attitude was like. If the empress dowager didn’t like this Miss Wang, then her chances were higher. After all, even if Elder Cousin Duke Xian and the empress dowager weren’t close, they still had to respect this elder.
The empress dowager was already very angry, so she didn’t hide her anger when she saw Yan Wan. She told her all of her discontent about this matter, knowing that Yan Wan was on the same side as her.
Hearing the empress dowager’s indignant words, Yan Wan unconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. The empress dowager’s aunt didn’t like that Miss Wang Ruoyan at all.
Thus, in order to express that she was standing by the empress dowager’s side, she followed the empress dowager to express her resentment towards Wang Ruoyan, “But she’s fine, she suddenly died so easily when she said she was sick, leaving her cousin with such a reputation, it’s good that you didn’t want to enter the King’s Mansion and didn’t want to appear so suddenly. Now that you’ve appeared in the capital, even with such a method, making everyone in the capital know, what kind of peace is that?”
These words added fuel to the fire and sowed discord. After hearing her words, the empress dowager was even worse off. When Yan Wan saw the empress dowager’s angry and dissatisfied expression, the corners of her lips curled up in a complacent expression.
The empress dowager was not stupid, she knew Yan Wan’s motive for saying these words, but she did not need Yan Wan to say that she would not like Wang Ruoyan, so she took the opportunity to say it.
The two of them went on to punish Wang Ruoyan and the Wang family. The empress dowager felt that she had vented the anger in her heart, and Yan Wan saw what she wanted to see and obtained the answer she wanted. So when the conversation ended, both sides were elated and happy!
Shen Qi, who was in King’s Mansion, did not know about what was happening in the palace, but even if she knew, she would not have any feelings for it.
Just because she was not affected did not mean that no one else was not worried. This was why Shen Jianing had to carry her for six months already with her big belly, which was already clearly visible in her heart, and was acting as if the old Buddha had confessed to him all this while in fear of something going wrong. It was her first time being her father, so she was both nervous and excited, wishing that she could hold her every day and be as careful as if she were a doll.
Originally, the people of the house of the Marquis did not want her to go out at this time. Therefore, ever since Wang Ruoyan’s incident, the servants of the house had been cautious, not letting her know about this matter. In the end, she did.
Xue Yang had told her that the Queen’s Consort was fine and he had sent people over to visit. However, he was not at ease because he could not see Shen Qi, so the only choice was for her to come over and take care of his baby.
When Shen Qi saw her, a row of black lines immediately appeared on her forehead, but when she saw that she was looking at him in such a manner, her heart was moved as well. Furthermore, with a face full of worry, she could not help but be moved.
He hurriedly went up to welcome her, took her by the hand and welcomed her into the parlour. He arranged for her to sit down, and also ordered Zi Zhu to bring a bowl of bird nest over.
“Why did Second Sister need to come personally? Why not just send someone over to say it.” These words of hers were not at all polite. She was actually quite familiar with pregnant women, especially those who had seen too many palace dramas and novels. The pregnant women were all extremely fragile, their children couldn’t touch them even if they wanted to.
It was not because she was afraid that something would happen to Shen Jianing, but because she felt that the Second Sister had been hoping for this child for a long time.
Shen Jianing waved her hand nonchalantly, with a look of satisfaction and helplessness, “Where’s it going to be that serious? They’re the ones who are worrying blindly, I’m very well.” With that, she looked at Shen Qi, and saw that her complexion was red, her mind was full of energy, and was not affected by the outside world, and unknowingly, she was laughing in her heart.
If his third sister was hurt by this, she wouldn’t be third sister. Her status at home was clearly even worse. She could even calmly deal with it, much less such a fake idea.
Third sister couldn’t be measured by ordinary people’s thoughts. She had her own thoughts from the beginning and knew what she was doing. She also knew what she wanted.
Thinking of this, he laughed at himself, “It seems that I have overthought things. You are fine.”
Shen Qi heard this and was startled, then shook her head: “Second Sister has come to see me, I am very happy!” Her tone was sincere without the slightest hint of falsehood.
Seeing that her smile was really bright and happy, Shen Jianing also smiled secretly, “We are sisters from the same mother, in the past, I was too narrow-minded, and only after marriage did I understand these principles, and I hope that Third Sister can live a smooth life.” He had lived too arduously in the past. He only hoped that everything would go smoothly in the future and that there wouldn’t be so many unforeseen events.
Shen Qi nodded her head in agreement. The two of them laughed, and just as they were about to speak, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside. Shen Qi frowned and looked outside, the servants in the Duke Palaces were always well-trained, and normally there would not be this kind of rule, which meant that there was something important.
Shen Jianing also looked outside worriedly. Not long later, a servant ran in and gasped for breath without waiting for the mama to speak: “Princess, the Prince is back!” With a face full of excitement
