The Autumn Appreciation Banquet is a rare opportunity to meet the Sixth Prince and many dignitaries. Naturally, the Shen family mother and daughter, who are determined to become rich and powerful, will not miss such a good opportunity.
Mrs. Shen shamelessly asked her new son-in-law to take Shen Ruyue with her. Shen Qing did not object, so he also followed.
Although they were both guests at the Autumn Appreciation Banquet, the treatment was very different when they first entered the door. It was as noisy as a street market, and you couldn't even find a seat.
Shen Ruyue's face turned green with anger. When she thought of that bitch Shen Qingluo being treated like that, she immediately felt unwilling. What made her even more angry was that Shen Qingluo was asked to marry as a substitute. She originally thought that the barbarian general was a savage. Man, Shen Qingluo's future life will definitely be worse than death!
But she never expected that the general would be so majestic and handsome. He should be her husband!
"Kisaragi?"
A clear voice came from the noisy crowd, and a pretty woman walked out from the crowd. She had a pink brocade skirt, elegant makeup, and a smile that showed the gentle temperament of a lady.
"It's really you. I didn't expect to meet you here." The woman's voice was kind and without any pretense.
Shen Ruyue was only slightly surprised. After seeing the person clearly, she suddenly showed contempt, "Ji Liansi? I didn't expect to meet you here."
"But... you're not marrying..." Ji Lian thought about the alleged marriage that had caused a lot of fuss a few days ago, and suddenly felt a little suspicious.
"It doesn't matter, it's Qingluo who is marrying, not me."
Shen Ruyue's tone was cold and indifferent. Ji's family was in Yangcheng. It was just a small family with a reputation as a scholarly family. The two families were family friends, so they had known each other since they were young, but she looked down on such poverty. Among people from a wealthy family, only Shen Qingluo, who pretends to be elegant like her, has a close friendship with her.
"Qingluo?! How could..." Ji Liansi was shocked when he heard this. He was deeply moved when he thought that Qingluo, who had been kind and weak since childhood, encountered such a disaster.
Shen Ruyue was worried that she would get into trouble when she saw Shen Qingluo later, so she warned her preemptively, "I'm warning you, this matter has been settled. Don't bring it up again in the future, otherwise don't worry about me not caring about the friendship between the two families!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, leaving behind a sad and regretful Ji Liansi.
She and Qing Luo are close friends. Shen Ruyue has always had a bad character, but she didn't expect that Qing Luo would be dragged into suffering. Now, after so many days, the matter should be a foregone conclusion. She can't help Qing Luo, so she can only I prayed silently for him in my heart...
In the other room, Shen Qing found an excuse to come out for some air. Baili Yunzhi disappeared as soon as she walked in. She was left alone with Xia Houzhan in the huge room, staring at each other? She didn't want that. …
Shen Qing turned left and right and walked through a few stone arches. Shen Qing, who was not paying attention for a moment, suddenly couldn't find the direction. He looked around, but felt that the roads seemed to be the same. He couldn't help cursing in his heart that the royal family was extravagant and it was just a palace. , is it necessary to build it so big? It’s such a waste of citizens’ taxes and labor!
