Chapter 81 Stand-in
Shen Qingyun shook his head when he heard this: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have other plans about this matter. My sister Shen Sisi is engaged to Jiang Lin. I want to tie them together, but don't harm others anymore."
Hearing Shen Sisi's name, Si Moli pondered for a moment: "That sister of yours seems to be very close to the third prince."
She was amazed at Si Moli's information network, but felt relieved when she thought about his identity. Shen Qingyun frowned slightly: "Yes, I don't know why the third prince has a soft spot for his sister, but some time ago the third prince It seems that he is starting to neglect her again."
"There is a reason why the third child likes her."
Shen Qingyun was stunned: "My lord, do you know all this?"
Si Moli smiled faintly: "Lao San fell in love with a maid in the palace a few years ago, but she was of low status. The queen was afraid that she would be addicted to love, so she had her killed. This incident may still have a great impact on Lao San. Yes, since then he has never liked a girl from any family, but has focused on making achievements in the court."
After a pause, he continued: "Your sister Shensi has a similar face to that palace maid."
After hearing this, Shen Qingyun suddenly realized.
No wonder the two and three princes all like Shensi Si. It turns out that she is the substitute of Bai Yueguang in the heart of the third prince.
A thought flashed through her mind, and Shen Qingyun thought, maybe she knew why Shen Shensi became the third prince's concubine in her previous life, but she still had a private relationship with Jiang Lin. Shen Shensi always thought that she was the third prince's love, but she didn't When I thought about finding out that I was just a substitute after getting married, I felt so frightened that I had to hold on to Jiang Lin as my spare tire.
"If that's the case, then why has the third prince been so cold and thoughtful recently?" Shen Qingyun was a little confused.
The confused look on her face actually made the smile on Si Moli's lips grow bigger: "Because the third prince met a woman. This woman is more like the palace maid than Shen Sisi. She almost has a nine-point resemblance and the same identity. Lowly, now he has been secretly kept in the mansion by the third prince."
This woman was exactly what Prince Li had sent to her.
"No wonder." Shen Qingyun's eyes widened slightly. With a better one, Shen Sisi was no longer enough.
Apart from the facial resemblance, there is nothing particularly outstanding about Shen Si Si.
Although she is nominally the eldest daughter of the Duke of Shen, the Duke of Shen's Palace has declined, and she relies on the General's Palace to support her. However, Shensi Si is not the Han family's daughter, and she was disliked by the Han family, so she married She also couldn't get help from the General's Mansion.
The third prince is the son of the queen and a popular candidate for the crown prince. Naturally, he can choose a woman with more status, intelligence and beauty as the third prince's concubine.
"Then Shen Sisi customized such expensive jewelry, but wants to use his face to regain the attention of the third prince?" Shen Qingyun asked thoughtfully.
"No." Si Moli explained to her carefully: "According to my investigation, it seems that Shen Shensi deliberately approached the sixth child under the instructions of the third child, so he ended up in that jewelry store by chance. We met by chance."
"why is that?"
"Previously, a large number of corrupt officials were caught in the water conservancy project in the south. Your Majesty now wants to choose a prince to decide the succession arrangements for officials. Now several princes are competing overtly and covertly. The third and sixth sons are very likely. .If there is news about Lao Liu teasing the noble daughter at this time, although it may not seem like a big problem, His Majesty hates such things very much, so he will naturally favor Lao San."
Only then did Shen Qingyun understand the whole story.
Official succession is a lucrative job. Not only can you deploy your own people, you can also gain some favors and benefits, and it also adds to the reputation of the princes.
The third prince had a better substitute, and now he used Shen Shensi to eliminate dissidents for her. Shen Shensi was not stupid. She did not charge into the battle on her own, but took advantage of Jiang Lin.
On the one hand, he helped the third prince, but on the other hand, he took the opportunity to harm Jiang Lin.
I heard that the sixth prince had a cruel temperament. If the sixth prince and Jiang Lin formed a deadly feud, Shen Sisi could also use this to find a way out of the engagement. This would be a good plan that would kill two birds with one stone.
But the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole was behind. Now that she knew about it, Shen Qingyun thought that she might be able to make some moves and seal the engagement between Jiang Lin and Shen Sisi.
Seeing Shen Qingyun's expression, Si Moli knew that she had a solution in mind, so he just said: "If you have any difficulties, come to me at Prince Li's Mansion at any time."
Shen Qingyun felt warm in her heart. King Li was cold on his face, but in fact he helped her a lot, but he never spoke out.
The two chatted for a few more words. Si Moli looked like he had just learned that she was going to the Xuanyi Pavilion, and claimed that he also wanted to see it, so the two of them walked together.
Han Yu couldn't help but look lonely in the darkness behind Shen Qingyun. Jiang Lin had just spoken rudely. He also wanted to come forward and teach him a lesson for the young lady, but he had no identity.
He could only hide in the dark, not even qualified to take action. He could only watch King Li and Shen Qingyun walking further and further away together.
The two of them arrived at the Xuanyi Pavilion and met Lian Rufeng smoothly.
Lian Rufeng had dressed up nicely, but when she saw Shen Qingyun coming, she took out her fan and fanned herself gracefully, her voice full of magnetism: "Qingyun, you're here."
Si Moli walked out from the side calmly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, chewing on these two words: "Qingyun?"
He said to Lian Rufeng with a non-smiling smile, "I didn't expect that you and Miss Shen seem to be quite familiar with each other."
Lian Rufeng was petrified on the spot. He turned to look at the little Yaotong and asked him with his eyes why he didn't tell him that King Li was also here. However, the Little Yaotong lowered his head with a guilty conscience and did not dare to speak at all.
"No, no, Qingyun and I, oh no, Miss Shen and I are friends. This time I also want to tell her that the previous pill preparation has been released. Look, my skin has become smooth again."
With that said, Lian Rufeng took Si Moli's hand flatteringly and prepared to touch his face.
Si Moli frowned and shook him off in disgust, turning to face Shen Qingyun with a serious look on her face, her tone even a little aggrieved: "I don't know if I am Miss Shen's friend."
Shen Qingyun didn't expect that these two people actually knew each other. They seemed to be very familiar with each other. When he heard Prince Li's words, he immediately understood the meaning and couldn't help but blush a little: "Of course, from now on, Your Majesty, just call me Qingyun." .”
"Then don't call me Prince, please call me Mo Li in private, okay, Qingyun?"
It's obviously an ordinary name, but when it comes out of King Li's mouth, I always feel a little tired.
Shen Qingyun's ears were a little red and she nodded lightly.
Mo Li, Mo Li, she thought these two words secretly in her heart, and had a different feeling.
