As a result, Shen Qingyue and Shen Qingyue were sitting on their knees while others were sitting, and even Zhang Youyao was kneeling on the ground in fear, not daring to move even a little bit.
As for Shen Qingqing, who was sitting next to Qi Yeshen, she neither sarcastically mocked nor added insult to injury. She didn't even look at herself.
It was as if in Shen Qingqing's eyes, he was just a passerby, like a stone dropped in a big lake, inconspicuous.
He hated her to the core, but she was indifferent to him and had no qualifications to be her opponent.
So the more Shen Qingyue thought about it, the angrier she became, but there was nothing she could do about it. She was as helpless as punching down with a fist and finally smashing a pile of cotton.
During the dinner, Shen Yu was calm and solemn. He never spoke much except in front of Bai Xuxu, who was also indescribably graceful and generous.
Le Qing rarely participated in such occasions, and she was so nervous that she couldn't say a word. Fortunately, Shen Qingfeng always took care of her emotions and kept adding food to her.
Shen Qinghan and Shen Qingfeng also lowered their heads to eat. The atmosphere was as awkward as possible.
Le Qing was always a little absent-minded, twisting her fingers on the corners of her clothes again and again. Finally, she couldn't help it. She was not as calm as everyone else in the Shen family, so she finally asked: "Your Highness, can I ask you a question?" One thing, I heard that you are investigating the Liu family's case, I don't know..."
Shen Qingfeng tugged on her sleeve and said, "Don't ask questions about the case at will. His Highness the Crown Prince cannot reveal secrets."
This matter is so important that even Shen Qinghan couldn't find out anything about it. Who in the government doesn't care about this matter now? Even if they have such a relationship, it is inconvenient for the Shen family to ask more questions.
The central character Le Qing was summoned for questioning several times, and Le Qing did not know the progress of the case.
Le Qing frowned with an uneasy look on her face, "But I am also a member of the Liu family, and I just want to know..."
Not only the emperor was shocked by this incident, but the queen mother who heard that she was practicing Buddhism in the temple also knew about it and arrived at the palace today.
Speaking of which, the Queen Mother came from the Liu family, so the Liu family has been going smoothly over the years. Now that something has happened, the Queen Mother cannot just sit idly by.
The Queen Mother had been extremely tough when she was young. Although she had been eating and chanting Buddhist scriptures outside these years, it was related to the Liu family, so she naturally wanted to protect the Liu family.
It would be easier if it was just the Liu family, but the Shen family is also involved. The Shen family has a profound background and is also a strong backbone.
As a result, the case became extremely difficult, and even the emperor felt a headache, so he directly handed it over to Qi Yeshen.
Facing Le Qing's uneasy eyes, Qi Yeshen said a rare word of relief: "Don't worry, what's true can't be fake, and what's fake can't be true."
Le Qing wanted to ask more questions, but Shen Qingfeng pulled her back to stop her. Bai Xuxu also interrupted the topic: "His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, has been working hard recently. I specially asked the small kitchen to prepare some nourishing medicinal food for Your Highness to try."
Qi Yeshen used to think that Bai Xuxu was solemn and graceful, but in recent contacts, he felt more and more that there was a kind of fog about this mother-in-law that people could not see through.
Subconsciously, he respected Bai Xuxu very much, "Yes, thank you Madam Shen for your kindness."
"You have already decided on your wedding date, but you will have to change your mind in a few days."
Qi Yechen nodded, "If Madam doesn't mind, I can change my story today."
Bai Xuxu raised her eyebrows, "Yes, but once you change your words, you are now a member of our Shen family, and you should know some propriety in doing things."
After saying that, Bai Xuxu waved to Qiu He on the side, "Go and bring me the Gai Kou tea."
