Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Xuanyuan Qing received the message from the palace, she even sneered at the nanny at the side. “I thought he had been bewitched by Bai Wan and had almost forgotten about me, his biological sister.”
The nanny serving at the side knew how good the relationship between the siblings was, so she quickly coaxed Xuanyuan Qing. “I feel that no one can compare to the Eldest Princess’s status in His Majesty’s heart.”
Xuanyuan Qing’s cold eyes turned cold and a trace of malice flashed across her gloomy eyes. “I don’t need you to curry favor. I know that Bai Wan is his life! I’m afraid I’m not even worth a strand of Bai Wan’s hair in his heart.”
“But so what!” The Eldest Princess changed the topic. “I’m from the same mother as him. No matter what, he still has to acknowledge me as his sister!”
When she heard that the palace had even asked Shen Qingyun to go with them, the Eldest Princess frowned as if she had swallowed a few flies and revealed a disgusted expression.
“Just say that the Prince Consort is sick and can’t enter the palace.”
However, Shen Qingyun did not appreciate her kindness at all.
‘Eldest Princess, you’re thinking for me. Since His Majesty has summoned me, I have to go even if I’m sick.”
“Shen Qingyun, don’t think that I don’t know what kind of dirty thoughts you have! You’re shameless, but I still want my face! Ah Lang and Ah Yu also want their faces!”
Xuanyuan Qing’s expression was malicious, and the anger in her eyes suddenly rose.
Shen Qingyun did not even seem to have the mood to argue with her. He let her scold him alone while he changed into a clean and tidy set of clothes. He put on his jade crown and dressed up carefully.
Xuanyuan Qing felt that her self-esteem as the Eldest Princess had been trampled under someone’s feet. She was so angry, but she could only endure it.
She was the most respected Eldest Princess in Wu’an. She could not afford to lose face!
Shen Lang could tell that the atmosphere between his parents had been a little strange recently.
It was not just during this period of time.
Actually, when he was a little older, he already knew that his parents were not as loving as they looked.
When the two of them had their backs to him and Ah Yu, they made a big fuss.
There were a few times when Shen Lang thought that the two of them were no longer going to walk on the same path.
Who knew that after torturing each other for so many years, they still hadn’t separated?
As a son, he could not say anything about such matters.
He wondered what was going on with these two people today.
Shen Lang decided to ignore them. What he couldn’t see couldn’t hurt him. He rode his horse into the palace first. He didn’t know why his uncle had called them over today.
How could he have forgotten about Ah Yu?
If Ah Yu found out, he would probably roll on the ground and make a fuss.
The family of three entered the palace one after another.
The palace servant led them to the hall that Xuanyuan Yu used for discussion.
Shen Lang was not Shen Yu and did not know anything. As soon as he stepped into the hall, he realized that something was wrong with his uncle today.
Usually, his uncle also liked to keep a straight face.
But today, that pair of deep and cold eyes, as cold and sharp as a blade, swept towards them without any warmth.
Xuanyuan Qing also saw Xuanyuan Yu’s expression and gaze. She said faintly, “Who provoked you again? Did you suffer at Bai Wan’s place again? Then why are you giving us such a long face?!”
Xuanyuan Yu stared straight at her with his dark eyes and called out, “Do you want my life?”
Xuanyuan Qing was confused by his question. “Why are you going crazy again?
Xuanyuan Yu raised his head and laughed lightly. His dark eyes were filled with deep hostility as he said word by word, “Of course I’ll go crazy. After all, I’ve been poisoned with a drug that will make me go insane..”
