In the pavilion in the backyard, Li Danyeng sat on a stone bench, her face red. The dizziness had not yet subsided.

When Sen Ya said those words earlier, she really felt as if her heart had been stabbed.

"Princess, I heard that esteemed imperial concubine wanted to keep that princess for her meal." Li Danyeng's personal maid, Xiao Yu, said.

Li Danyeng's expression immediately changed, and she said in a low voice, "How is this possible?" "Why would Aunt keep her at home for dinner?"

"That's right, who knows what esteemed imperial concubine is thinking. She clearly knew that Princess Sen Ya was here for the third prince, but she even set up a banquet." Xiao Yu grumbled in indignation.

Li Danyeng's expression became even uglier. Xiao Yu was right. Sen Ya was here for Brother Yi, she couldn't let her eat here.

"I'll go find the concubine and chase Sen Ya out!"

At the Peace Garden, Li Danyeng angrily ran over just in time to see the imperial concubine speak to Sen Ya. The two of them were talking and laughing; it seemed that the imperial concubine really liked this Sen Ya.

"Aunt!" Li Danyeng angrily shouted and walked in with big steps.

"Danfeng, what's wrong?" The imperial concubine asked in a low voice. She had been together with Li Danyeng for so many years, how could she not know her temper? It was probably because she knew Princess Anya was going to stay and eat here that she became angry.

"Why did you keep her at home to eat?" Li Danyeng pointed at Sen Ya with a huff and asked.

"So what if you let me eat? The esteemed imperial concubine had asked me to stay for a meal because she liked me and wanted me to marry the third prince. You're not happy? " Sen Ya teased.

Li Danyeng's expression changed again as her eyes turned completely red, "I won't allow it!" Aunt, I don't want to see her. I don't like her.

She shouted loudly like a lunatic, wanting nothing more than to throw Sen Ya out.

"Pa ~ ~ ~"

A slap sounded out, and Senior Concubine seemed to have used all her strength, her palm was even going numb. "Danfeng, you've done it! Princess Sen Ya is a guest. Is your nonsense a form of hospitality? "

Li Danyeng was struck dumb. Her entire body seemed to have been struck dumb, and the left side of her face began to ache.

"Aunt, you actually hit me." She couldn't believe that the imperial concubine would hit her for the sake of an insignificant person.

But how could she know that this Sen Ya wasn't so insignificant in the eyes of Consort Ji?

"The way that the Consort handled it impressed Sen Ya quite a bit." Sen Ya looked at Li Dancheng with a smug expression. She didn't even try to conceal her mockery.

Li Danyeng's face turned even paler from her anger. She fiercely glared at the imperial concubine and angrily roared, "I know you hated me since a long time ago. Then I'll go home tomorrow!"

After she finished yelling, she angrily ran away. She then looked at Li Danyeng with a trace of sadness in her eyes before sighing.

"Lunch still needs some time, take the princess to rest."

Sen Ya stood up. "There's no need, I'll go find the third prince."

After which, he quickly ran out.

The Imperial Consort looked at Sen Ya and felt even more troubled. If there was any other way, she wouldn't do this.

"Wan'er."

The imperial concubine rubbed her forehead, her eyes filled with pain. "Yurang, do you think I did the right thing?"

"Yes, yes, yes. But that girl, Dan Feng …" Butler Li sighed and rubbed her forehead.

"Forget it, it's fine if the phoenix returns. During this period of time, the house is destined to be in chaos, but Senya …"

The imperial concubine opened her eyes, a trace of chilliness in them. "It's the same if we kill Shangguan Qian and let Feng Yi marry Sen Ya. In any case, Sen Ya is interested in Feng Yi."

Butler Li nodded, "Alright, I will arrange it as soon as possible."

On a small path in the back garden, Sen Ya was walking with a confused look on her face as she looked around.

The young maid had clearly said that the third prince was in the study and told her to walk along this path. However, she hadn't seen the third prince at all.

Frowning, she continued to walk forward. Inside the pavilion, she saw a familiar person sitting there.

Her face was calm as she looked at the lake, her pink skirt fluttering in the wind.

The scene was especially quiet, and no one had the heart to ruin it.

"Shangguan Qian." Sen Ya shouted loudly and ran towards the pavilion while giggling.

"Princess Sen Ya? Princess, what is she doing here? " The red tassel asked cautiously, looking at Sen Ya as if she was looking at an enemy.

"Perhaps he won't be able to find the Third Prince." Cui Zhu said indifferently, then lowered her head to pour some tea.

Sen Ya ran over and sat opposite her. She picked up the tea cup and started drinking it. "It's so hot that it kills me!"

"The third prince isn't here." Shangguan Qian'er said coldly, also lifting his teacup and taking a sip.

The news of the imperial concubine having a meal at the mansion had already spread throughout the estate a moment ago.

Shangguan Qian had instantly become the most pitiful person in the household, and before he had even taken his place as main wife, he had been overtaken by someone from behind.

However, Shangguan Qian was not thinking about that. Since Consort Ji wanted to approach Sen Ya and express her goodwill towards her, that meant that she was scheming against her.

In any case, there was already Sen Ya who was helping Li Fengyi. She was unnecessary and only had one ending left, and that was — death.

It looked like Senior Servant Bai's case had become a trigger for Imperial Consort Ji Ru to make the decision to kill her.

If she wanted to harm her, she would make her imperial concubine suffer so much that she would rather die.

"Why do I keep looking for him? Shangguan Qian, esteemed imperial concubine likes me so much now, it seems you have an awkward position in the house." Sen Ya said casually.

"Hai, why are you talking like that?"

"Hong Ying, don't be rude." Shangguan Qian Shan said passively, lifting his eyes to look at her, a faint smile on his face. "Sen Ya, since you are not here for Li Fengyi, why are you here?"

These words of hers had a double truth, Sen Ya's expression froze as she stared deeply at her, her eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, her thoughts were all seen through by Shangguan Qian in one fell swoop.

Shangguan Qian Bei raised his teacup and continued drinking his tea, his tone calm, "Why did Sen Ya come here has nothing to do with me, and I just want to stay here peacefully, there is no conflict between us."

"That's for the best." Sen Ya stared at her for a while with her deep and beautiful eyes.

At this moment, a young maid ran over. "Princess Sen Ya, the esteemed imperial concubine would like to invite you over for a meal."

"Since you're going to eat, come with me." Sen Ya looked at Shangguan Qian and said.

Shangguan Qian Shan raised his brow, a faint smile on his face as he said: "Alright."

The maidservant who had come to call on Sen Ya for a meal looked deeply at Shangguan Qian, guessing in her heart that the imperial concubine would not call her there, and she wondered how awkward it would be for her to go over like this.

The two walked into the Garden of Peace side by side. Li Fengyi had long since arrived at the Garden of Peace. When he saw the two appear together, a trace of surprise appeared on his face.

The imperial concubine only glanced at the two of them for a moment before she smiled at Sen Ya.

"Princess Sen Ya, come here." The imperial concubine passionately gestured for Sen Ya to sit beside Li Fengyi, and directly put Shangguan Qian on the side.

Even Li Fengyi felt that something was wrong. "Qian'Er, sit here."

Shangguan Qian'er sat down gracefully, his expression as normal as usual, as if he had not seen the difference in treatment between the two.

"Have your meal."

With her sharp eyes, Sen Ya saw that there was no bowl of food beside Shangguan Qian'er, and she asked loudly, "Qian'er doesn't have a bowl, how do we eat?"

Her voice was loud, causing the surrounding maidservants to laugh out loud.

The scene became awkward for a moment. The imperial concubine frowned and cursed the servant girl beside her in a low voice, "How do you do things? He didn't even get enough bowls. Did he want Princess Sen Ya to come to his residence to see a joke? Get a bowl! "

"Yes." The maidservant did not mind the scolding, and instead looked deeply at Shangguan Qian with mockery in his eyes.

"It seems that Imperial Concubine didn't expect Qian'Er to come." Shangguan Qian's tone was calm, without much dissatisfaction.

"Qian'Er, it was just a maid's carelessness, don't mind it." Li Fengyi softly explained.

"Qian'Er and the Third Prince aren't married yet, right? How could the maidservants in this mansion be so arrogant? And if they do marry, what will happen? " Sen Ya bluntly said, "How about I let Third Prince stay with me while I look for another good husband?"

Although he had experienced Sen Ya's bold words in the palace, Li Fengyi never thought that she would really dare to say anything.

However, this woman was too bold. She would only make men avoid her, and Li Fengyi was like this.

"Princess Sen Ya is a straightforward person. However, the mansion treats Qian Chao quite well. If you don't believe me, you can ask Qian Chao." The imperial concubine tried to smooth things over, but her expression was exceptionally unsightly.

"Your Consort is naturally right." Shangguan Qian replied, his words were like a greeting. Consort He, but the other meaning was more like being oppressed by Consort Jing, not daring to say a single word of complaint.

"Have your meal." Li Fengyi lowered his face and spoke with a deep voice.

"Sen Ya, I heard that you came to the Great Yan Dynasty to choose a prince for your marriage? "It's a pity that Feng Yi already has a daughter." The Consort sighed, as if in regret.

"Aren't they still unmarried?" "I have already made it clear in the palace that as long as the third prince is willing, I would rather be a child."

Li Fengyi put down his chopsticks with a bang, his expression ugly. "I'm not willing."

After which, he abruptly stood up and walked outside.

"This little brat!" The imperial concubine sighed, "Sen Ya, don't mind it."

"I'm fine." There was a pleased smile on Sen Ya's face as she looked at Shangguan Qian at the side. Since she had already said this much, she did not believe that Shangguan Qian would not express herself.

As expected, Shangguan Qian also put down his bowl, but his expression was calm and did not change much.

"Imperial Consort, do you look down on me?"

"Qian'Er, what are you saying?" The imperial concubine raised an eyebrow, her sickly face carrying a trace of malice. "Since ancient times, it's normal for men to have three wives and four concubines. Is it possible that Qian'Er wants Feng Zhizi to be alone with you all her life?"

"Qian'Er is not a tyrannical woman. It's just that we aren't married yet. May I be the concubine to choose a secondary concubine for Feng Yi? Is that appropriate?" Shangguan Qian'er raised her brow, her voice growing colder as she said: "Although I am not as good as Big Yan, I am not as good as anyone else. If Consort doesn't believe me, I can give it a try."

As she watched Shangguan Qian fly away, a trace of viciousness appeared on Imperial Consort Ji's face.

As soon as Shangguan Qian walked out, he saw Li Fengyi standing in the courtyard. Her expression changed, and he quickly walked past him.

Li Fengyi followed behind her and finally could not help but grab her wrist.

"Qian'Er, are you angry?"

Shangguan Qian'er looked at him grudgingly, shaking his head as he said: "No, I don't."

"Since there's no reason why you shouldn't speak to me?" Li Fengyi asked, "Are you angry at that Sen Ya?"

"It has nothing to do with Sen Ya."

Originally, it had nothing to do with Sen Ya. Sen Ya's appearance was just a reassurance to the consort. With Sen Ya, the consort would not hesitate to eliminate her.

"Qian'Er, mufei didn't intentionally go against anyone. She was just being polite to Sen Ya. After all, she came to the mansion as a guest." Li Fengyi explained earnestly.

Shangguan Qian sneered coldly, what Consort Ji meant by that, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to see it clearly.

"There's no need for Feng Yi to explain." She turned her face away and wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. "Perhaps Qian'Er was useless to Feng Yi, which caused Senior Concubine to feel that Qian'Er was an eyesore."
