When she returned to her mansion, Bai Ruo immediately stepped forward and took the cloak from Shen Ninghua. Seeing the smile on her face, she asked curiously, "Your Highness, did something interesting happen in the Palace?"

Shen Ninghua's eyes were as crystal as jade. Her smile deepened even more when she heard what Bai Ruo said. "Her Majesty wanted to make a fuss about the princesses' dowries. But it's a pity that she went for wool and came home shorn in the end. I guess Xiao Qi will secure his position as the chief of the Internal Affairs Department."

"Then congratulations to the imperial son-in-law." Xiao Qi was an associate of Chu Junyi. If he took control of the Internal Affairs Department, Shen Ninghua would benefit a lot.

Shen Ninghua nodded and turned to look at the door. She saw Chu Junyi walking in with big strides.

"Ninghua, you're back. Is everything ok?"

Shen Ninghua immediately laughed in her heart when s

    Seeing the two of them entering the building, Baili Anning and Baili Anqing instantly became nervous, especially Baili Anqing, who seemed to not even know how to place her hands and feet.Shen Ninghua was also surprised. She didn't expect to meet these two persons. However, after thinking for a moment, she immediately felt that this was not a bad thing. "Your Highnesses, I see that Young Master Qu and Young Master Yang are both downstairs. Why don't we invite them here?"Baili Anning paused and said hesitantly, "Ninghua, is this… proper?""Although people in Da'an Dynasty pay attention to etiquette, it is not improper for persons who have been engaged to meet each other. Besides, I and the imperial son-in-law are also here. There won't be a problem.""Since that's the case, then let's meet them. We can take this chance to know more about them."Chu Junyi looked at Shen Ninghua with a hint of grief in his eyes. Back the

    The two of them strolled around a lot of places until they were tired. Then, they found a teahouse."Ninghua!" Just as they were about to go upstairs, Baili Anning quickly walked over and said, "You guys are also here. I...we were just about to go back to find you."Although they hadn't been with together for a long time, Baili Anning was extremely satisfied with Qu Yi. He didn't know how to speak sweet words, but once he said something, he would definitely suit his action to his words. Such a person made her feel exceptionally assured. After living in the Palace for so long and being neglected because of her stench, she knew what she wanted more than anyone else.To be able to find an honest person like Qu Yi instead of being used in a political marriage was already a great fortune for her. Thinking back to the guidance Shen Ninghua had given her on selecting her future husband, she felt even more grateful.Shen Ninghua raised her

However, as Baili Anning's wedding day was approaching, the situation was calm and nothing happened.Bai Ruo helped Shen Ninghua rub the ink stick and looked at Shen Ninghua drawing a Picture of the Spring with amazement in her eyes. Hong Ling quickly walked in from outside the door."Miss, big news!"Shen Ninghua put down the brush and said, "What happened?"Hong Ling took a deep breath and quickly said, "You asked me to keep an eye on Rui Xue and I did. I found that she was placed in a courtyard and had never seen Yang Lin again, so I thought that she would behave herself. But last night, after Rui Xue fell asleep, the people who were spying on her saw a poisonous scorpion crawling into her room. They were afraid that she would be in danger, so they carefully entered the room, only to find that Rui Xue was not in th

    As soon as Baili Anqing finished her words, the surrounding people suddenly fell silent.Yang Lin's father and mother hurriedly stepped out from the crowd and knelt on the ground with pale faces. "Our son is impetuous. Please forgive him, Your Majesty!"Baili Qingcang's eyes were filled with anger. He looked as if he wanted to kill Yang Lin on the spot. "Yang Lin, what did you mean?"Yang Lin didn't seem to hear Baili Qingcang's words. He still looked at Shen Ninghua infatuatedly, and his eyes were filled with tenderness and affection, as if he was looking at his beloved one. "Ninghua, I don't care what others think, nor do I care if our relationship can be acknowledged by the world. I only need one promise from you. As long as you say that you want to be with me, I will take you with me and travel around the world.""Monster! Shut up! Quickly apologize to His Majesty and Princess Anqing!"

    Seeing that Yang Lin was about to be dragged down, Baili Anqing was anxious. Canceling the engagement with Yang Lin now was the best way. If delayed for a bit longer, the consequences might be different. Therefore, she had to seize this opportunity.As she thought about it, she raised her eyes to look at Baili Qingcang eagerly, and her face became even paler. "Father Emperor, although my mother's position is low, I'm at least your daughter. Please have mercy on me and cancel my engagement."As soon as she said those words, the anger in Zhao Huiying's heart burned even more fiercely. She looked at Baili Anqing who was kneeling on the ground and wanted to point at her nose and call her an idiot!Today, civil and military officials were all present and witnessed the farce made by Yang Lin. Even if the Emperor ignored this daughter, he would not marry a princess to such a person. By crying from the side and shedding a few tears, she could easily ga

    The officials in the surroundings were almost driven nuts and Baili Qingcang also felt very disgusted. If such a person wasn't sick, they must be sick. How could a normal person say these words?The corners of Shen Ninghua's lips moved slightly. She suppressed the goosebumps on her body, turned around, and looked at the area where female guests were seated. "Cousin Yingxue, can you come out and help me?"Yang Yingxue had been seated in the corner and looking at Shen Ninghua worriedly. When she suddenly heard her name being called, she was stunned for a moment. After a while, she discovered that everyone around was looking at her. Only then did she get up and quickly walk forward. She forcefully calmed herself down and saluted."Yang Yingxue greets Your Majesties."Seeing her eyebrows clearly, Baili Qingcang was stunned and his heart trembled. "As you were."Shen Ninghua raised her head and said, "Father Emperor, I have

The Yang Mansion, which had been envied by everyone, became a desolate place overnight.Shen Ninghua was holding a book as she heard the news from Hong Ling. She frowned slightly. "Yang Lin's father and mother have all passed away?""Yes, I heard that the Yang Clan has also broken up. A few clansmen from the concubine-born branches divided the family property. Now, people of the capital are talking about this matter."Shen Ninghua sneered and her eyes turned cold. "What a timely death. Where's Rui Xue?"Although Yang Lin was disgusting, judging from his actions, there must be something strange about his sudden confession to her. However, the Yang family all died only a couple of days later, leaving no evidenc

Listen to your tone as if you are not afraid of death, but your eyes tell this palace that you are afraid.""Oh, I would be afraid of you?"Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, a cold smile flashed in her eyes, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, after all, you're also Prince De's rightful consort, I'll have someone send you back, and Tai Consort Qi and Prince De will naturally settle you down properly."Thinking of the desperate scene of being locked inside the empty room before, Bu Yonghan's body shuddered violently, "I'm not going back, I'm not going back!""It'

    Shen Ninghua frowned slightly, also somewhat unable to find a clue, “The Tu Su family has existed for more than a hundred years, started in the former dynasty, and the words of the former dynasty ... does it mean that the Tu Su family had a relationship with the Great Yue State in the former dynasty? Even to the serious speculation, Tu Su family is the nail that the Great Yue State has planted on our side."Baili Junyi gazed in contemplation, "What you said is extremely possible, a family that has developed a bit too legendary, moreover, if the Tusu family has no other purpose, why would they be so eager to control the courtiers and make a name for themselves?"Shen Ninghua nodded, "If what we've guessed is true, then the mind of the Tu Su family is simply too terrifying."If not for Baili Junyi's deep affection for her, then the Tu Su family's plan to have Tu Su Qingli approach him could have succeeded.
