After Jiang mama left, there was a moment of silence, and it was still the Wang Ma who opened her mouth and said: "Don't be sad, young miss.

Zi Li and the others also looked at Shen Qi with a face full of worry. You said it yourself, this was a major matter of a woman's life, when they were welcoming the bride, they were not her husband. When they were paying respects, they were all alone, entering the palace to drink tea.

When Shen Qi saw their expressions, he could tell that they had misunderstood him again. She smiled and shook her head, "What are you guys thinking? I'm fine, I just forgot about returning back home for a while and felt a little emotional. But there are still some fathers and brothers in Shang Shu Manor, I really miss them a little."

Wang Ma and the others became even more sad when they heard this. What kind of days did Miss have? She should have had a heart to heart talk with her mother at this time, but Lady Xu actually treated Miss with such an attitude.

Seeing their expressions, Shen Qi became even more depressed. Oh no, I m thinking too much, I have to quickly change the topic, "Quickly go and check if our crab is done."

"Miss, it's still too early. It's only the right time." Lingtong said helplessly with a smile.

"Oh, then tell me the information you've gathered in the past two days." Shen Qi smiled as he looked at Lingtong. With this information, how could he let it go to waste?

The moment she heard that the young miss wanted to hear this, Lian Qiuyu became excited, and eagerly shared the news she had received in the past two days.

"The Duke's residence is filled with stewards of the Zhonbo, with the Jiang mama taking the lead. The Duke's personal guards are Yan Yi and Yan Er, who is the one who went to the mansion to escort the bride. Yan Er has never seen anyone, and the Duke doesn't have any servants serving him. Speaking of which, she was rather happy for her young mistress.

When the others heard this, they also felt a little gratified. Without those troublesome matters, it would be worth it even if the Miss was wronged.

"They say that although the prince is usually taciturn, taciturn, and rejecting people a thousand miles away, he is very amiable towards his servants, rarely throwing a tantrum at them, not to mention beating and cursing them. He is not as terrifying as the rumors in the outside world."

"As for the rest, that's all. The rules of the palace are strict so they don't dare to say much. But don't worry, I will definitely ask for more information for you if you give me more time." As he spoke, he patted his chest in assurance.

Shen Qi laughed, "There is no need to be so deliberate, just ask for as much as you want when chatting. Let's not be deaf, and let's not let others know that we are asking about them, that would be unsightly."

"This servant will be careful." Liuguo said solemnly.

Shen Qi also knew that Forsythia was lively and lively, but she still had her sense of propriety. Without saying anything more, she sat down to chat and exchange information with each other, then waited for the banquet tonight.

One of the plates of crabs was placed in the middle, and it was very eye-catching. One could be very particular about eating crabs, use eight pieces of crabs, and complete an elegant and clean set of procedures. They could also be very casual and directly catch them.

The serving maid was no stranger to these tools. She would pick them up and place the crab meat into a small plate. There was vinegar and soy sauce on the side, so she didn't have to do it herself.

In his previous life, Shen Qi really didn't like eating crabs. Not only was biting open the crab's leg like chewing its teeth troublesome, listening to it made his scalp go numb, he might as well eat prawns instead.

After being served and eating two Wang Ma s, Shen Qi came over to remind her, "Princess, you can't eat anymore, eat something else instead."

Shen Qi also knew that she shouldn't eat too much, especially at night, which was why she let go of her.

"Alright, there's no need to serve me anymore. You guys can go eat some too." Shen Qi said to the girl beside him, then looked at the crab on the table and instructed, "Take these too, you guys eat separately."

"Thank you, wangfei." "No need to be polite, just go and bring out the plates. Zi Zhu and the other two girls happily went to the side to share their food. Wang Ma helplessly shook her head." The wangfei is too spoiling for them. "" … … "" wow …

"Nanny, don't be too reserved, please have some too." Shen Qi said with a smile, then asked as she thought of something, "Are there any in the other courtyards? The people serving by the prince's side must also be sent over. "

"Princess Hua-Yang, don't worry. We have everything, Main yard will send them off as well." The Wang Ma said gently.

Shen Qi nodded her head, she knew that everything was settled and she would be at ease with her own food, since she still had to eat mooncake later on, she would only be able to eat 60% of it now.

In Main yard, Yan Er came to King Duan's room while carrying a plate of crab. At this time, the crab was huge, with a maximum of three or four plates.

"Prince, the wangfei has sent us crab." Yan Er started to clamor the moment he entered the door. Looking at such a large, pleasing crab, Yan Er deeply felt that wangfei was a good person.

"Oh, where did you send this?" He remembered that it was given to him by the palace every year. This year, the emperor definitely didn't have the leisure to make such a fuss while still in a coma.

"It's for the wangfei." Yan Yi's words were concise and short.

Seeing that the Duke's expression didn't look good, Yan Yi hurriedly added, "It was sent over by the Third Brother of the Royal Consort yesterday. He accompanied the dowry and said that the Royal Concubine loved this the most every year.

King Yuan narrowed his eyes. It seemed like the Third Young Master of the Shang clan was complaining about him! It was true that his sister, whom he had doted on for so many years, had married like that. However, it would have made anyone else unhappy. He was annoyed that he had married in the entire imperial family, but he just couldn't complain.

However, King Xian was sure that no one in the entire Shang Shu Manor would welcome him. After all, he was still a young princess, and as a bride, he felt as wronged as he could possibly feel.

"Your Highness, can you eat it?" Yan Er asked while looking at the crab. He didn't notice that his own prince was distracted, and at this moment, all of his attention was on the crab on the plate.

King Xian came back to his senses and waved his hand. "You two eat separately. This prince is weak, so I can't eat seafood for now."

Yan Er cheered and pulled Yan Yi to share their food. Yan Yi was simply speechless towards him.

Shen Qi did not know that this crab had actually been sent over by Third Brother. She thought that the Duke Palaces already had one, "You said that Third Brother ordered them to send this crab over together with the dowry yesterday?" Shen Qi was surprised to hear that.

"That's right, the Third Young Master is really nice to the Young Miss." Wang Ma could not help but sigh.

Shen Qi took a cup of tea and lowered her head to drink it, covering her reddened eyes. She felt emotional for a while, and thought that she was a cold-hearted person, and wouldn't be too moved by these things. However, she knew that having an elder brother who placed him in her own heart, would leave him no regrets in her life!

After eating his breakfast, he went to Main yard to take a look at King Duanren, and even sat down to read for a while. Then, he slowly walked back, the Zhonbo had still prepared a carriage to send him back.

Seeing that Shen Qi was not too interested, the servant girls around her all knew about the knot in her heart. When they returned, they mainly brought their son-in-law to see their family.

On the other hand, Shen Qi had lost her husband and her relationship with her mother, so she had completely lost all of its meaning when she returned home.

Wang Ma walked over to Shen Qi and said, "Princess, it's time to go. The old master might be waiting for you to return." She knew that Shen Weiyuan still doted on this daughter of her.

Shen Qi was stunned for a moment before she waved her hand and said: "Let's go. Purple Bamboo and Forsythia will accompany me back."

"Yes, Princess." At the same time, the other people did not have any objections as well. The Shang Shu Manor truly did not have much of an appeal to them; even the young misses were not favored by them, let alone the maidservants.

The reason why they let the purple bamboo follow them was because of its calm and steady nature. Furthermore, her brain was nimble and her ability to react freely was also strong.

When they arrived at the entrance, they immediately saw Yan Yi leading a group of bodyguards beside the horse carriage. Shen Qi was a little confused.

Seeing Shen Qi's doubt, Yan Yi walked out of the line and answered in a orderly manner, "Royal Consort, this subordinate will wait to escort you back to the door."

Shen Qi: Isn't it just returning to the entrance? As for being escorted by these guards? How could she remember that the distance was not very far?

But Shen Qi also did not say anything, she knew that these people did not want to listen to her, and saying what they said was for nothing, and just wanted to listen, so she waved her hand: "Thank you for your hard work everyone." Then, he supported the Violet Bamboo's hand as she went into the carriage.

Zi Zhu and the others were quite happy, this way the Lady Xu wouldn't dare to ignore their young miss, who is currently a Queen's Consort with a bodyguard escorting her.

This was the first time these servants thanked Shen Qi for becoming the Queen's Consort. With this title, they no longer had to care about how others treated them, and were finally proud of themselves. Looking at the happy expressions of these innocent girls, Shen Qi shook her head and laughed bitterly. Forget it, following them could be considered suffering!

In fact, Yan Yi was just as confused as the other one as he was. He didn't understand why the Duke had ordered him to bring guards to escort the Royal Concubine back to the door, so he couldn't help but take a peek at the Royal Consort. She was a very beautiful girl, but he had never seen her before.

Yan Yi didn't understand in his heart, but he was not Yan Er. He would strictly follow Duke Wei's orders instead of asking them, because he knew that the Duke would eventually let them know.
