Is there anyone in the Shen family who looks like me?

Shen Qiaochen's heart was in chaos, and finally she could only condense into this sentence.

She racked her brains and carefully recalled the things she knew in her past and present lives over and over again. In the end, she was frustrated to find that she seemed to know nothing.

In his previous life, he only focused on Xiao Li. Shen Qiaochen never cared about anything else. Including the relationship between the royal family and the Shen family, or in other words, the relationship between Emperor Chongming and the Shen family.

It seems that I have really neglected many things in my past life.

Shen Qiaochen was just immersed in his thoughts. He didn't even know when Emperor Chongming allowed everyone to leave the palace. He didn't come back to his senses until he was sitting in Shen's carriage.

It was already Xu hour, and there were still guards on duty outside the palace gate. The spring night wind blew through the cold armor and sharp knives. No one dared to linger here even on a festival day.

Under the high palace walls, only the faint smell of wine dissipated in the quiet air.

Shen Qiaochen was riding in a carriage, leaving the majestic palace wall far behind her. In the silent night, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of horse hooves stepping on the bluestone.

Until I turned a corner, I felt as if I suddenly entered another world. All kinds of lanterns were dazzling for a while, and the sounds of shouting and hawking came and went.

Shen Qiaochen opened the corner of the car curtain, and a burst of air-conditioning hit her face. The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and food. There were still people on the street, including noble ladies like Shen Qiaochen, as well as ordinary wealthy people. Xiaojia Biyu is more like a commoner girl in ordinary civilian clothes.

But no matter who they are, at this moment, their beautiful faces are full of yearning and joy.

"Today is Women's Day."

Shen Qiao took a deep breath and said silently in his heart.

This is the first festival since her rebirth. Although tonight's palace banquet is not perfect, at least she can spend it with her relatives completely. It also cuts off Bai Xiaonian's chance to make a blockbuster with her own music score at the palace banquet.

Everything is moving in the right direction. Even if tonight she discovers that some things may not be as simple as they seem, Shen Qiaochen believes that one day, everything will come to light.

"It would be great if my parents and eldest brother were here..."

Shen Qiaochen was thinking to himself, and just about to put down his hand to lift the car curtain, he inadvertently raised his head and his eyes fell far away under the apricot tree by the river.

It rained a few days ago, blowing away the crimson petals all over the ground. There was a person standing there. From a distance, Shen Qiaochen seemed to be able to see the bright red tear mole on the side of his face and under the corner of his eye.

Suddenly the wind picked up, and Shen Qiaochen was stunned. After trying to open her eyes, she seemed to see the man turning around and looking in her direction.

Shen Qiaochen was stunned for a moment, then quickly put down the car curtain, hid in the car, and uneasily reached out to cover the already tightly covered car curtain again and again.

Yunling and Zifu, who were both in the car, looked surprised at the series of actions.

Shen Qiaochen could only pretend to be blinded by the wind, cover her eyes and cry out that it hurt.

Yunling and the others didn't care about anything else and immediately stepped forward to check. After finding that there was nothing serious, Yunling thought about it and leaned over to tell the coachman to go faster so as not to miss the four girls' rest time.

The carriage sped up, and soon Shen's Mansion was in sight.

Before the carriage could stop, Shen Qiaoran's voice sounded outside.

"Xiao Qiao, are you okay?"

After Shen Qiaochen helped Yunling get out of the car, he came forward and took Zifu's position on the other side.

Seeing that her position was occupied, Zi Fu twitched her lips, looked at her girl, and walked to the back silently.

On the other side, Mrs. Shen also stepped out of the carriage with the support of Shen Qiaoqi and Grandma Su. After struggling for a day, she fainted again. Mrs. Shen could no longer hold on anymore.

Looking at her grandmother's tired figure, Shen Qiao silently suppressed the questions in her heart, put on a sweet smile, stepped forward to take Shen Qiaoqi's place, and supported Mrs. Shen to walk into the house.

As soon as I walked outside the second door, I saw the steward of Bishui Pavilion waiting there. Seeing that the masters were back, she did not come forward immediately, but followed them consciously, and went to Mrs. Shen's Jinghe Hall together. .

Noticing her figure, Shen Qiao didn't change his expression, but glanced at Zifu who was following her again at some point. Zifu nodded slightly, turned around and disappeared into the night.

Soon, the group of people came to the fork between Jinghe Hall and Yilan Courtyard. Before Shen Qiaochen could speak, Mrs. Shen stopped and smiled at Shen Qiaochen: "Xiao Qiao, you are also tired today. , let’s go back to Yilan Courtyard first. You don’t have to get up early tomorrow, just come to Grandma’s Courtyard to have a meal at noon.”

After saying that, he raised his hand and stroked Shen Qiaochen's head lovingly, sighing a little: "In a blink of an eye, Xiao Qiao has grown so big, and now his health has improved. Today the eldest princess also told me , I will take you out more often in the future. Your third brother is right, how can such a good little Qiao from our family hide in the house all the time."

After saying that, he told Shen Qiaoran beside him: "Brother Ran, take Xiao Qiao back to Yilan Courtyard."

Then he said to Shen Qiaoqi on the other side: "Brother, come with me."

Then he took Shen Qiaoqi and everyone in Jinghetang and turned back to Jinghetang.

Shen Qiaoqi nodded towards his two siblings and followed them away.

Shen Qiaochen had known for a long time that even if she had changed a lot in the past few days, it would be difficult for everyone to change their impression of her. Mrs. Shen, including everyone in the Shen family, still only regarded herself as the person who needed to be treated. Protected porcelain doll.

So she didn't feel frustrated. Anyway, there was only one thing that could make Bishui Pavilion suffer until now.

As long as they are here, Bai Xiaonian and her daughter can't think of staying out of the matter this time. As for the final bitter consequences, they can naturally only bear them themselves. This is called self-inflicted and self-suffering.

"Xiao Qiao, let me take you back."

"Okay, brother."

Shen Qiaochen, who was in a good mood, showed a bright smile to Shen Qiaoran, then held Yunling's hand and walked towards Yilan Courtyard.

Shen Qiaoran shook his head and followed suit.
