When Chui brought Ya Jieer and left, and only and Lady Xu remained, the atmosphere became even more awkward. Shen Qi, on the other hand, did not feel anything and calmly drank her tea.

Seeing Lady Xu's face that was filled with hesitation, Shen Qi slowly put down the cup in her hand, "Madam, you have something to say?" When there was no one around, Shen Qi would always call her Madam.

"Follow me to the inner room." Lady Xu took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision. Shen Qi laughed sarcastically, since it's like this, then why be so troubled?

But in the end, she still followed her into the inner room, as she wanted to see what kind of thing the Lady Xu could make her say to her in such a wronged manner.

He went to the inner room and sent the servant out, then the Lady Xu directly asked: "You entered the palace to thank me?"

"Let's go in." His tone was calm, but it was always the same tone.

Then, have you seen the Shen Fei? Lady Xu immediately became excited.

"I saw it." Shen Qi said with a smile, as though he was relieved.

When Lady Xu was completely focused on eldest daughter, how could he still notice the change in Shen Qi? Hence, he asked anxiously: "Then did Shen Fei ask you to bring me any news?"

Shen Qi looked at Lady Xu in confusion. What did she mean? Speaking of carrying the message, it was impossible for her to carry it, right? Did Lady Xu care so much that it would be messy or did he not think of this at all? Shen Qi didn't believe that she wouldn't be able to see through Shen Jiahui's hostility towards her.

However, he still answered truthfully, "No." Not a single superfluous word.

"No?" Lady Xu frowned, as if he couldn't understand what was going on. Shen Qi found it extremely funny.

"Does madam not know that Shen Fei has always been hostile towards me? How could you let me bring you a message? " Shen Qi couldn't help but ask. She didn't want the Lady Xu to use this kind of thing to bother her in the future, so she might as well explain it clearly.

"Oh, did I misunderstand? The matter of the Daoist Priest? The treatment in the mansion? And this wedding! So many misunderstandings! " Shen Qi laughed after he finished speaking.

And every time Shen Qi said the words "Lady Xu", her face would turn even whiter, and in the end, even the pale-white hands that were pointing at Shen Qi trembled. She knew, that she actually knew everything, that they should have killed her back then.

"Does Madam regret not strangling me to death?" Shen Qi smiled as if he had seen through her thoughts.

"You were pretending before!" Lady Xu was flustered and exasperated, as he said fiercely.

"Pretend?" "Why are you pretending?" Shen Qi looked at her with a funny expression, "Do you think I was pretending before? Funny, do you think I care about that? "

"Do I have to say that I always knew you would believe me?" Shen Qi smiled as he looked at the Lady Xu whose expression had turned extremely ugly, "Before, I didn't say that I really didn't care about these things, but now, I said that I wanted to tell you guys that I know everything, that you guys don't need to pretend to be friendly in front of me, and that you shouldn't disturb my life, that's all."

After Shen Qi finished speaking, she felt that it was enough, and did not need to continue any further, so she turned around and walked out. When she reached the entrance, he turned her head and said, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, I already told Shen Fei about this, so she should not bother me anymore right?"

Finally, he was able to return to his previous peaceful life. As a Queen's Consort, even if she did not do anything, the Shen Fei would definitely not let go of this opportunity. After all, Duke Wei was someone who truly held military power.

Shen Qi sometimes could not understand why the Shen Fei did not have a son herself. Since the Lady Xu was mainly focused on the Shen Fei, of course she would advise him to help out the Shen Fei. Thus, it would be better to say these words earlier for the sake of calming down in the future.

As for whether the Shen Fei would kill them to keep their mouths shut, Shen Qi felt that she was not as foolish as that. After all, she was now the main wife of the King, so if there were any mishaps, she would definitely investigate everything.

They knew what he was thinking as long as they didn't bother him. After all, they hadn't talked about it for so many years, so it was less likely that they would talk about it in the future. If they weren't stupid, they would know how to choose.

Furthermore, their methods were not very strict. As long as it was a person, they would be able to discover it. Thus, there was truly not much value in concealing it.

At this moment, Lady Xu's heart was extremely restless, she never thought that Shen Qi would actually tear off all decorum with her, one must know that even if she married into King's Mansion, she would still need to rely on her mother's family! She actually had a falling out with him just like that.

Was it because he was ignorant, or because he had something to rely on, that he felt that he was able to do it? The Lady Xu sat in his room, trying his best to calm his heart.

Of course, Shen Qi was not ignorant to the point that she had to rely on someone from the even after living for so long in the ancient times, but she knew that that person was definitely not from the Lady Xu.

Her reliance had always been on her father and a few older brothers, especially her second and third brother, it would be good if Lady Xu did not come to hold her back. After all, there was a Shen Fei who could not bear to see her own good.

When Shen Qi came out, there was already a servant waiting for her, "Princess, Master invites you to the study room."

"Got it, lead the way." Shen Qi knew that her father wouldn't be so worried about sher being alone with Lady Xu, so he wasn't surprised.

Zi Zhu and Lian Fu, on the other hand, were sizing up Shen Qi, afraid that she would be wronged. Shen Qi laughed as she looked at their nervous expressions, then shook her head.

Shen Qi frequently came to Shen Weiyuan's study room, and all the books were categorized into different categories. All these years, Shen Qi had been relying on them to pass her time by flipping through almost every single book in there. Of course, there were some that were carefully read, some that were just skimmed through, and later on, when she was really bored, she would ask her third brother to bring her a book.

Shen Weiyuan was currently seated beside a desk. Although he had a book in his hands, his thoughts were not on it at all, and with a slight smile, he walked over to pay his respects, "Father." Ye Zichen looked at him with a smile.

heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his daughter was not feeling upset at all. Thinking about it, Xiao Qi never cared about this, but she still couldn't help but worry, "If your mother says something, you don't need to take it to heart, nor do you need to care about it."

"What did Daddy say?" Of course my daughter will listen to my mother's orders. " Shen Qi smiled, the words were extremely pleasant to hear.

"I know you're a good person, but sometimes you don't have to care what she says." Shen Weiyuan was very pleased with his daughter's magnanimity, but it was also from a serious perspective, and it was sincerely planned for Shen Qi.

"Little Seven understands." In any case, they probably wouldn't say anything in the future.

"How is the prince?" After saying this, he began to ask about proper business.

"He's still unconscious. The imperial physician said it's because the poison in his body has yet to dissipate." When it came to proper business, Shen Qi was also extremely serious.

When he wakes up, he won't mistreat you. Your mother should have warned you about this, but father knows that you've been wronged for the past few years. Your mother is stubborn and unrepentant.

Other times, she was fine, but when it came to matters of the eldest daughter, she would be the one at a loss. All these years, she had quarreled about this issue countless times, but the next time, she would still act the way she was.

"Dad, don't worry about Little Seven Province. Your daughter will take good care of herself." Shen Qi also could not bear to see Shen Weiyuan frown.

"Where's your big sister …" Shen Weiyuan looked as if he didn't know what to say, but seeing his little girl like this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If it was his little girl, he would definitely know what he wanted, but eldest daughter didn't have that kind of scheming method.

"Father, the First Prince has already reached adulthood." Shen Qi only said this sentence, she believed that her father would understand, that no matter how ambitious Shen Jiahui was, it would all be in vain. The Second Prince?

Even if he had a son, he still wouldn't be able to be conferred the position of concubine. From this, it could be seen that he still wasn't very favoured, but that was also true, since the current emperor had suffered through all the hardships of the emperor's favorite concubine. He wouldn't be the one to make his eldest son suffer all those years ago.

"Nothing can be said." Shen Weiyuan sighed. Not only the Second Prince, even the Third and Fourth Princes were competing for it. The mother race was not obvious, so how could Shen Fei give up?

"Father, why are all the other princes from the matriarch's family not very influential, other than the Empress?" Why was Consort De so arrogant back then? Firstly, it was the Emperor's favor, and secondly, it was her illustrious family, and Shen Qi believed that the person who had relied on her the most was not the one sitting on the dragon throne, but the power behind the Consort De herself.
