Xie Jinyan wants to marry Shen Rou as his concubine?
Yu Qingwu was shocked, but he quickly understood.
No wonder Xie Jinyan took back her Yu family's property so quickly because she had reached a deal with the Shen family.
Yu Qingwu's face quickly darkened.
Seeing her sullen face and not speaking, Shen Rou thought she had been hit, raised her voice, and said contemptuously, "Cousin, if you kneel down and lick my shoes clean, I will consider letting you do the most despicable thing to the prince brother. Concubine."
The word concubine made Yu Qingwu very uncomfortable.
But she can make Shen Rou even more uncomfortable.
She sneered and didn't answer.
Shen Rou was confused by her smile and said angrily, "Bitch, why are you laughing?"
"I laugh at you for taking yourself too seriously." Yu Qingwu curled his lips, pointed at the jade pendant between his ears, and chuckled, "Shen Rou, look at this, does it look like your dowry?"
"Well, to be precise, it's the betrothal gift from my eldest cousin." She raised her eyebrows and looked at Qin Yiliu with a smile in her peach-blossom eyes.
Sure enough, Qin Yiliu's expression changed in an instant, and Shen Rou was even more shocked, with anger in her eyes.
In addition to being angry, he also had doubts. He asked Qin Yiliu angrily, "Sister-in-law, why are your earrings at her place?"
"Maybe your mother took the dowry by mistake when she was preparing it for you."
Qin Yiliu's expression suddenly became very unnatural. She clenched her teeth, seeming a little annoyed and embarrassed.
She glanced at Yu Qingwu unwillingly and said, "Okay Arou, don't pay attention to her. You are the quasi-princess, so don't lose your decency."
After saying that, she pulled Shen Rou and hurriedly disappeared from Yu Qingwu's sight.
Yu Qingwu had a feeling that Qin Yiliu seemed to want to snatch anything that belonged to her, including men.
She didn't understand why Qin would do this, but it seemed to be a good breakthrough for the Shen family.
Looking up at the winter sun hiding behind the clouds, she smiled and walked into Shen Ke's Hongxiang Courtyard.
Shen Ke's residence is the same as himself. It looks simple and elegant from the outside, but it is full of warblers and swallows inside.
When Yu Qingwu came in, Shen Ke was wearing a hairpin for a maid in red. The maid's face was red and she was sitting on his lap, shy and happy.
"Cough..." Yu Qingwu coughed lightly.
The maid was startled, then hurriedly got off Shen Ke's lap and said awkwardly, "Cousin."
"Go down." Yu Qingwu waved to her and walked straight to Shen Ke.
Shen Ke was also a little embarrassed. His face turned blue and white, but he kept a serious look. He looked up at Yu Qingwu and sarcastically said, "Didn't you enter the prince's house? Why are you back again? Are you tired of being played with?" "
Yu Qingwu ignored him, only put a box of mung bean cakes on the stone table, and smiled back at him, "I don't know if the prince is tired of you, but... Mrs. Qin must be tired of you, second cousin."
Hearing this, Shen Ke's expression suddenly changed, and he retorted in a panic, "You... what are you talking about!"
How did she know about her affair with Qin?
Shen Ke was panicked and even more confused.
Yu Qingwu laughed lightly, leaned over and sat next to him, picked up the tea bowl on the stone table that was stained by the maid's finger, and continued, "Has Mrs. Qin not paid much attention to you recently?"
"Do you know why?"
Shen Ke looked at her angrily and said nothing.
Yu Qingwu wiped off the red rouge on the edge of the bowl and looked at him sympathetically, "Because she hooked up with the prince, she persuaded the prince to marry Shen Rou just to facilitate the two of them to commit adultery."
"If second cousin doesn't believe it, you can ask His Highness the Crown Prince in person." She sighed, and moved her lips to Shen Ke's ear with an ambiguous breath.
Shen Ke trembled, and his ears suddenly became hot.
Yu Qingwu sneered in his heart and pushed him away fiercely. He changed the subject and said, "Okay, second cousin, I came to you today to ask you to return all the letters I wrote to you. I don't want to let him Your Highness misunderstood."
When she mentioned Xie Jinyan, her tone became gentler, with a bit of the coquettishness of a little daughter.
Sure enough, jealousy burst out from Shen Ke's eyes...
His Adam's apple slid slightly, his gaze passed across Yu Qingwu's lips, and he said dryly, "The letter you wrote has gone somewhere long ago. I will send someone to deliver it to you when I find it."
Send someone to deliver it to her? To Xie Jinyan, right?
"All right."
Yu Qingwu smiled ambiguously, patted his shoulder again, pointed to the mung bean cake on the table and said, "Mung bean cake, your favorite."
After finishing her words, she turned around and walked out of Hongxiangyuan.
Shen Ke sat there, with a hint of unknown emotion in his eyes.
After Yu Qingwu returned to the carriage, he wiped his hands again and again.
When she returned to the Prince's Mansion, her palms were already red.
But she didn't apply the medicine immediately. Instead, she ordered Aunt Xun to fetch water, took a careful bath, and then applied Xie Jinyan's favorite gardenia-flavored ointment on her body.
Xie Jinyan was preparing to take a rest when Nanny Xun suddenly came to deliver a message saying that Yu Qingwu was ill.
When Xie Jinyan came in, she was lying on the bed, her beautiful face full of tears due to pain.
Xie Jinyan frowned, sat in front of the bed, and asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Yu Qingwu didn't answer, he just looked at Aunt Xun and motioned for her to step back.
Xie Jinyan's frown deepened, as if he was remembering something, and he asked again awkwardly, "Did... Gu hit you too hard last night and hurt you?"
Yu Qingwu still didn't answer. She stood up tremblingly, with mist in her eyes, and asked him with resentment and grievance, "Are you going to marry Shen Rou?"
Hearing this, Xie Jinyan was startled, his face suddenly turned ugly, and he asked coldly, "Have you gone to Shen's house?"
"You are not allowed to marry her." Yu Qingwu interrupted him, with charming anger in his eyes.
Xie Jinyan was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly and looked at her with a smile, "So, senior sister, you pretended to be sick and called Gu here today just to say this?"
"I know that you have a grudge against the Shen family, but it's not your turn to comment on Gu's matter." Xie Jinyan warned coldly, shook off her hand, stood up and walked out the door.
Yu Qingwu naturally knew that she was not qualified to intervene.
Xie Jinyan looks ridiculous on the surface, but in his heart he is the most rigid and the best at wielding power.
Yu Qingwu was not surprised at all that he married Shen Rou.
But she would never let the Shen family and Xie Jinyan marry, no matter what the price...
Taking a deep breath, Yu Qingwu stood up and chased Xie Jinyan with bare feet. His clothes were scattered all over the ground as he walked.
When she walked behind Xie Jinyan, Yu Qingwu only had a small piece of clothing left. She hugged his waist from behind and sobbed softly, "Xie Jinyan, I'm so scared. I'm afraid that the Shen family will kill me after they gain power. Just like Harm my mother, harm my father, harm my brother like that..."
Xie Jinyan frowned and wanted to move her hand away, but Yu Qingwu hugged her tighter, sliding her soft hands down, untying his belt with one hand, and sobbing into his ear, "Jin Yan, please stay with me tonight. Just like when you were a child, holding me tightly..."
