Chapter 2 Hurry up and find out who this bitch is
Lu Ying leisurely wiped away the kiss mark with a handkerchief.
Back then, when the Shen Guogong Mansion was implicated in rebellion, the Emperor once suspected that he was the mastermind behind the scenes. Ultimately, due to lack of evidence, he was left helpless, but despite this, he was still implicated. His several brothers were eager to use this matter to make trouble, and calls to depose the Crown Prince once spread through the court.
It wasn't until he suppressed the southern rebellion with a thunderous hand and arranged a powerful marriage alliance with the new Duke, Shen Yan, that these voices were subdued.
He didn't explain anything to Shen Yunxi, only coldly said, "I have other important matters to attend to, Crown Princess Consort, make yourself comfortable."
After he left, Shen Yunxi overturned the table in a fit of rage, letting out a series of sharp screams.
Her face was red, her neck bulging with veins, as she panted and shouted, "Investigate! I must immediately know who that bitch is! How dare she seduce the Crown Prince behind my back! I want to ruin her face and make her die a horrible death, being cut a thousand times!"
The palace maid, Lian Ye, advised, "Your Highness, do not be angry. This matter must be carefully considered. Do you remember Fu'er from last year? The Crown Prince only glanced at her hand, and you ordered her hands to be cut off. Upon knowing this, His Highness said you were vicious-hearted and punished you with two months of confinement."
Lianxin added, "And Miss Fang Rui, last time at the Eastern Palace's night banquet, she came to dance. Others only praised her skin as white as snow and smooth as cream, and you thought she would steal His Highness, ordering her skin to be peeled and replaced with a black dog's skin that night. It made His Highness very displeased."
"What do you understand?" Shen Yunxi gnashed her teeth. "No matter how those sluts in the Eastern Palace entice His Highness, they are just acting under my nose and can't make any big waves. But today, this vixen dared to run outside the palace to seduce His Highness, not taking me into account at all! What are you waiting for, hurry and find out who this bitch is!"
Amidst Shen Yunxi's screams, Shen Yinning had quietly returned to the residence in Lotus Flower Alley.
She had bathed, just in time for dinner.
