Spoiled Wife - C87 cerebral arousal
Shen Qi couldn’t help but want to hold her forehead. She had already been in the palace for so long and was still so stupid.
If it was simply a battle between two young children, then there would be no other matters to discuss. There was jealousy and hatred in the palace, and framing each other was common, but they were afraid that the Prime Minister Qin would rise to the heights of the two families.
This way, it would mean that Shang Shu Manor and the Prime Minister’s house had to be at odds with each other. In other words, Shen Shang Shu had been angered by his own eldest daughter and had no idea that he had gotten himself an enemy.
Prime Minister Qin was a very capable and cunning person, but unfortunately, he protected Qin Xiang well, so his actions to beat Qin Xiang had completely offended the Prime Minister Qin.
But thinking about Prime Minister Qin’s attitude, Shen Qi felt that he would very likely only target Shen Fei and not become enemies with Shen Weiyuan, since Shen Weiyuan did not only have a single daughter, everyone in the imperial court knew, that Shen Weiyuan had always followed the imperial court’s and the imperial palace’s absolute domains, and would never extend his hand to help the eldest daughter.
Not mentioning that his second daughter was Loyal Marquis’s first wife, the future Madam Hou, just his identity as her youngest daughter was already not to be looked down upon. After all, she was the first prince’s consort, and King Duan’s position in Da Xia was extraordinary.
If that was the case, Shen Qi did not have anything to worry about. As for the Shen Fei, who would care about her, since she did not want to die, she would not die. Since she was willing to run on the road of death, then let her go.
At this time, the Shen Fei did not know to reflect on herself, but she was still cursing at the Lifei, saying that she was a traitor in her heart, with different intentions.
Shen Qi was so angry that she was laughing, how could you be so stupid as to not lie to me?
Previously, Shen Fei had still maintained her vigilance. Ever since she was pregnant, Shen Qi realized that she was more and more fearless, and more and more vividly displayed her stupidity. She didn’t even have the most basic of vigilance anymore.
Was it really three years old? No, Shen Fei condensed all of the three years of stupidity into one, and then concentrated it into one during that time, which was why it became like this.
After she finished cursing, she realized Shen Qi had not said a word, so she asked: “Third sister, you have to help me, you can’t let Prime Minister Qin go against me, I’m a great benefactor to our family.” As she spoke, he rubbed her stomach with a face full of joy.
Shen Qi, “…” Whose family do you belong to? She was still dreaming! Furthermore, even if it was in the future, she did not care about it. With King Duanren, this huge mountain, who would she, Shen Qi, be afraid of?
However, in order to quickly free himself from the Imperial Palace, Shen Qi patiently said: “Just don’t think too much and rest in peace.” Originally, I wanted to say that I have to think about the child in your stomach before doing anything, but thinking that Shen Fei wouldn’t listen, I didn’t say it out loud.
However, this sentence was misunderstood by the Shen Fei as Shen Qi agreeing to help her settle matters outside, so he said very happily: “I am counting on this precious egg in my stomach, so I will definitely take good care of my womb.”
Shen Qi:… They were not on the same channel at all. It was hard to communicate.
After listening to her nagging about how hard it was to work, how lonely she was in the palace, how she missed her family, she finally said, “I’m just thinking that no matter how hard it is, I’m not afraid. As long as I contribute to the family, it’s worth it.” She said that she entered the palace because of her family.
Shen Qi looked at her with shining eyes. So this was what Shen Fei was thinking in her heart, no wonder she felt that it was only right for her family to do anything for her.
She wanted to yell at her. Wake up! That eye of yours saw that you entered the palace in the family’s interest? Didn’t you see that none of your brothers dare to walk in the hall? He actually felt so good about himself, and it was so intoxicating!
Returning to the residence, Shen Qi felt that it would be much more difficult to deal with the Shen Fei than the empress dowager herself. She couldn’t help but reflect on her actions.
Seeing her like she was going to fight a war, King Xian couldn’t help but want to laugh. However, he still came over to comfort her. “If you don’t want to go in the future, then there’s no need. This King will explain it all to you.” Seeing her like this made his heart ache.
Shen Qi waved his hand, “Don’t worry, I just feel tired. My brain circuits are not on the same line, I am unable to communicate with you.” Right now, she was feeling rather depressed and wanted to pour out her heart and soul.
Then, he heard Shen Qi repeat the words of the Shen Fei once more. In the end, she said, “I never thought that there would actually be such a species in the world, it’s truly too bizarre. When she wanted to enter the crown prince’s mansion, no one in the family approved of it.” Speaking to here and thinking about the Lady Xu, she didn’t seem to object.
“Oh, maybe Lady Xu agrees, she is the one that will change her mind even if Shen Fei says that the sun is rising from the west.” She felt that the Shen Fei had become accustomed to this kind of self-righteous personality due to him.
And these words caused King Xian to think about the treatment of an imperial concubine. This treatment more or less had the shadow of a Shen Fei, and he couldn’t help but feel somewhat dissatisfied towards both him and his wife.
Shen Qi did not know what he was thinking, and continued: “My father has a cautious personality, because when the Shen Fei entered the palace, even my brothers did not dare to let them walk around in the imperial court.”
After she finished speaking, she realized that she was complaining in front of King Duanren, who was the Emperor’s younger brother. She was more or less afraid that the Emperor wouldn’t let her go, he seemed to be complaining in front of his younger brother instead.
The corners of Duke Xian’s mouth curled up as he looked at her current appearance. He was in an incomparably happy mood, when had Shen Qi ever done such a thing? He no longer had the vigilance he had before and was even complaining to himself. This was a good sign.
Perhaps she didn’t even realize that she was now a bit more at ease with him, especially after that kiss. After a few days of struggle, she seemed to have slightly let go of herself.
He walked up to her and stroked her head, smiling as he said, “Father-in-law’s considerations are not without reason. After all, the unnecessary trouble caused by a powerful outer sect is unexpected, and it’s not like we want to do it. Even if you don’t do it, someone will force you to do it.”
Shen Qi looked at him carefully, and blinked her eyes, unable to react. Duke, are you sure you’re not talking about your big brother’s Jiang Shan? But what she said was, “Then would the emperor suspect the prince?” She wanted to slap herself.
What happened today? Accidents occurred frequently. Then, she looked at him with a face full of regret before lowering her head, not daring to look at him.
King Xian laughed out loud, seeing Shen Qi’s puzzled look, he laughed gently and said: “I am very happy.” Her voice was filled with joy, and Shen Qi’s face immediately flushed red. She felt that she was becoming more and more disappointing.
Sitting across from her, King Duan grabbed her hand and softly said, “I’m very happy. When you return, you will complain to me and pay attention to my situation.” This was something he had never done before. He might be worried about his situation, but he definitely wouldn’t ask about it in such a straightforward manner.
Of course, Shen Qi understood the meaning of his words, but it turned out that the other party had seen it clearly, so he gave up struggling and allowed him to hold her hands freely. Perhaps this was an opportunity, it was better to take the opportunity to speak clearly, and treat both of them well.
He looked straight into his eyes and said seriously, “I admit that I am weak in terms of emotions. I will only say this once, and I will only give you one chance.” If you do something wrong to me in the future, we will have no future.
He understood her personality just as she understood him. Neither of them was someone who was indecisive, and they had only been inexperienced before.
King Xian said seriously, “This king promises you that you will be the only one to do so.”
Ever since the princess’ words had been spoken, their relationship had steadily progressed. The air was filled with a sweet scent, and unexpectedly, the summer King’s Mansion had a bit of spring air about them.
It wasn’t just Princess Consort Duanren who was in a good mood. Even the servants in the estate were in a good mood as well. Their masters all had a little more lightness in their work, but at the same time, they were also happy for their wangfei.
It was also the seventh day of the seventh month, the Day of Begging, which was also Shen Qi’s birthday.
In the early morning, the servants in King’s Mansion were already busy. If it wasn’t for Princess Hua-Yang, perhaps Princess Hua-Yang’s concubine would have been at night as well. Therefore, Jiang mama and Zhonbo paid extra attention to this matter, as it was related to the descendants of the Duke’s Mansion.
Under the anticipating gazes of the Zhonbo and the Jiang mama, King Duanren brought the wangfei out of the room. He didn’t tell Shen Qi where he was going in advance, so it became rather mysterious, so Shen Qi didn’t ask about his secret at all.
Seeing Shen Qi cooperating with King Duanren to such an extent that she nodded her head in satisfaction, he was still thinking of how to convince the wangfei, but she saved herself in the end. She was in a good mood as she helped her get onto the horse carriage and ordered her to set off immediately before leaving King’s Mansion.
Because it was Beggar’s Day today, both men and women, regardless of whether they were married or not, were free to go out to exercise. Therefore, there were many people on the streets, coming and going, talking and hawking, it was very lively.
After Shen Qi arrived, it was rare to see such a scene, upon hearing the voice, he felt her heart itch, she really wanted to witness such a lively scene. Unable to suppress her curiosity, she quietly lifted a corner of the carriage’s curtain, and secretly peeked outside.
He had promised his wife that he would take her to see the lanterns and put out the river lanterns on the Spring Lantern Festival, and he would take her out on the third day of the third month to enjoy the scenery outside, but he had left without a single one.
He would never wander around while he was not in the capital, especially during such a lively time. One reason was because he was afraid of trouble, and the other one was afraid of bringing him trouble. Thinking of this, he felt wronged.
He had been making her feel wronged ever since they were given the marriage, so it could be said that he had a lot of debts to pay. Whatever happened in the past would depend on what happened in the future. He swore to himself that he would never let her feel wronged again.
Shen Qi watched the prince make his decision for a while. He was curious about what had happened, but he did not ask further.
“Your Highness, where are we going?” Seeing that the carriage was heading out of the city, Shen Qi could not help but ask.
