Royal Palace.

On the second day of their wedding, Xiao Junhe took Shen Ning into the palace to meet the emperor, empress, and mother concubine Lian.

In the Qin State, Lian was the emperor's favorite concubine, and she was also the emperor's first wife before he ascended the throne. However, in order to stabilize his position and ascend the throne, the emperor needed to rely on the maternal power and military power of Queen Liu, so he had no choice but to After ascending the throne, Liu, who was a concubine, was named queen.

Lian has a gentle and kind temperament. She never fights with others and always endures her grievances silently. Even if the emperor betrays her, she never fights for anything. She lives alone in Cuizhu Garden without fighting against the world.

There were constant disputes in the palace, and the concubines in the harem were cunning and deceitful. Concubine Lian did not like disputes and complained of illness all the time, but she escaped.

The Queen knew Concubine Lian well and knew that she could not stir up trouble. Although Concubine Lian had been causing trouble for many years, Concubine Lian did not fight back, and the emperor no longer paid attention to Concubine Lian. Gradually, the queen felt bored, so she No more provoking Concubine Lian.

What's more, the queen has no heirs, and all the sons born to the concubines in the harem want to seize the throne. Whoever can win the favor of the queen is more likely to become the final winner.

"My sons and I, together with our bride Shen Ning, pay homage to our father and emperor and our queen."

Above the main hall, Xiao Junhe knelt down, his voice neither humble nor arrogant.

Shen Ning raised her head and looked at the woman on the queen's phoenix chair, slowly clenching her fingers until her knuckles turned white.

Queen...

He is also one of her sworn enemies.

In his previous life, Prince Xuan Xiao Chengyin used the queen's power to marry the queen's niece Liu Wanying, that woman... She was so vicious that people dug out her eyes with their own hands, saying that her eyes were charming and evil...

It was also the queen who colluded with the Liu family to kill her father and drive out the entire Shen family.

"Ning'er?" Seeing that something was wrong with Shen Ning, Xiao Junhe called softly and asked softly. "But it was the first time you met your father and you were scared?"

Shen Ning came back to her senses and quickly knelt down. "My daughter-in-law met her father, the emperor, and her mother. Because it was her first time to enter the palace, she found that her father, the emperor, and her mother were different from the rumors, and she was a little shocked."

Shen Ning pretended to be shy and panicked, like an inexperienced and cowardly official lady, which made people think she was inoffensive and easy to control.

"Oh?" The emperor didn't say anything, but the queen looked thoughtful. "Why don't you tell me what the rumor is about His Majesty and me?"

"After I returned to my mother, my father told Ning'er since she was a child that His Majesty is a celestial being. The majesty of the emperor can make people dare not look directly at him. If you are lucky enough to see the Holy One in the future, you need to nod and bow your head to show respect." Shen Ning whispered, revealing the Shen family's loyalty to the emperor. "Father also said that the Queen..."

The queen frowned. "What else did Prime Minister Shen say about me?"

Queen Liu, before marrying the emperor, had an engagement with Shen Ning's father. It was heard that Prime Minister Shen regretted the engagement and caused the queen to lose face, so the queen held a grudge against the Shen family. When the new emperor ascended the throne, she The family went on a killing spree.

"Shen Ning dare not say..." It was difficult for Shen Ning to act the same way.

The queen's face is already ugly, this Shen Bozhong! After so many years... he is still slandering her in front of juniors?

Speaking of the Queen, the Emperor became interested. He raised his lips and asked with a smile. "I am also very curious about what the Prime Minister said about the Queen. Let me hear it."

Shen Ning cautiously raised her head and glanced at the queen, then lowered her head and timidly said, "Father, I want to forgive my daughter-in-law for her rudeness..."

"Okay, okay, I will absolve you of the Shen family's sins." The emperor seemed to be in high spirits, as if he would be happy as long as he could keep the queen from coming to power.

The queen snorted and looked at Shen Ning coldly.
