As expected, people came to the palace not long after, and Shen Qingyue was hurriedly called out to receive the order. Zhang Youwei couldn't help but whisper in her ear: "Daughter, I beg you, mother, this is yours." Life, don’t mess with me anymore, even if the third prince is obsessed with you, you are the concubine after all, and you are from the Shen family, you have to be clear that the Shen family is your backing."
Shen Qingyue sneered: "How could I have a mother like you who pushed me into the pit of fire with your own hands? If the Shen family wanted to be my backer, they would not have prepared a woman for the third prince before I even got married!"
"Daughter, ask yourself, how have we been in the Shen family these years? The Shen family, apart from being a little indifferent to us, has always been generous to us.
We eat the Shen family's food and use the Shen family's food, but in the end you are going to bite the Shen family back. You have ruined the Shen family's reputation. What have you gained in the end? Even though my mother is illiterate, she knows that the Shen family is good and we are safe."
Zhang Youwei's words did not arouse Shen Qingyue's approval. She was stubborn and paranoid and hated Shen Qingqing. One day she would return this hatred to them with profits!
As soon as they walked into the yard, they were frightened by the betrothal gift wrapped in a red tie.
There were hundreds of people carrying the betrothal gift, which was very spectacular, as if the palace had been moved there.
The mother and daughter stopped and said, "This is..."
Shen Qingyue said a little unconfidently: "The betrothal gift has already been given once, why does it come again?"
But he couldn't help but feel happy on his face. Could it be that he knew about Qi Yelin's misdeeds and the emperor wanted to compensate her for the sake of the Shen family?
Just as he finished thinking this, he saw Jiang Yi's figure, "Put it down gently, there are all the jade articles that His Royal Highness loves so much, so don't knock them."
Prince?
Shen Qingyue's face changed immediately. This was the betrothal gift given by the prince to marry Shen Qingqing. It was many times more than what she had received that day.
Shen Qingyue had never felt that the red color was so dazzling! She didn't even feel the redness on her palms when she was pinched by nails.
Shen Qingyue turned her head and saw Shen Qingqing walking out of the flower hall, looking lazy and without any joy on her face.
Jiang Yi immediately came over and said with a dogged smile, "Miss Qi, the Emperor has issued an order! His Highness wanted to come in person to deliver the betrothal gift, but unfortunately the Liu family's case has been difficult recently, so please ask your subordinates to come over, Miss Qi. Don't be surprised."
Shen Qingqing waved her hand, "No wonder, no wonder, where is the imperial edict?"
Jiang Yi took it over respectfully, "Here it is, your majesty pardons Miss Seven without having to kneel down to receive the decree. I will read it out right now."
"Fine."
Jiang Yi looked at Shen Qingyue, and his attitude towards Shen Qingqing was completely different. He cleared his throat and said coldly: "Third Miss, kneel down and accept the order."
Shen Qingyue almost gritted her teeth. Shen Qingqing stood and she knelt.
They are also betrothal gifts, one in heaven and one on earth.
Why can she, Shen Qingqing, enjoy the best of everything? She has to be lower than her in everything.
What's even more ridiculous is that their wedding day was on the same day.
The Shen family married two daughters at the same time.
And she, Shen Qingqing, was the crown prince's main concubine, and she was the prince's concubine. Just like their identities, they were destined from the beginning.
Shen Qingqing accepted the order with a playful expression.
After Jiang Yi read out the betrothal gift, he said with a flattering look on his face: "Miss Seventh, is there anything else you are dissatisfied with? His Highness said that as long as you want it, he can get it for you no matter what it is."
"That's enough."
"Miss Seven, please don't be polite. As long as it is your request, His Highness will definitely satisfy it."
Shen Qingqing nodded, "Okay, I'll contact you if you need anything."
Shen Qingyue asked unwillingly: "I wonder which girl the Crown Prince's concubine has chosen?"
Jiang Yi turned back to look at her, "Third Miss, who told you that our Highness is going to marry a concubine? His Highness rejected the Emperor's proposal and will only marry Miss Seven on the wedding day."
