Chapter 370 Ability
"Don't worry, mother. I know what's going on." Qin Xuerong said this and left in a hurry without giving Madam Qin a chance to speak again.
Qin Xuerong returned to the position of the Shen family's family. Because Zhang Jinping was the leader here, she felt particularly uncomfortable.
But at this moment, looking at her daughter who seemed to be glowing in the field, she felt proud.
Seeing Shen Shuyi's gentle expression and whispering something to Shen Qinghuan, Qin Xuerong couldn't help but say, "No matter how much the emperor has blessed others, it's still not as good as this honor falling on me, don't you think, Sister Yi?"
Hearing the sarcasm in Qin Xuerong's words, Shen Shuyi raised his eyes to look at her and said softly, "What does mother want to say?"
Are you trying to say that no matter how close Qingyuan Marquis Mansion is to her, no matter how much the emperor loves her, she can never compare to Shen Jingyu?
Qin Xuerong smiled and said, "Your elder sister received praise from the Queen Mother, aren't you happy for her?"
Shen Shuyi could clearly see Qin Xuerong's face, which was filled with pride.
She curled the corners of her lips and said with a smile: "Isn't it too early for mother to be happy?"
That prayer wheel is indeed unique, but unfortunately, she will not let Shen Jingyu marry Xiao Yuncheng.
In his previous life, Xiao Yuncheng was defeated, and the Shen family was identified as the Eighth Prince's party and was almost liquidated. It was only because she later married Xiao Tingshan, and Xiao Tingshan took over the power of the Third Prince Xiao Heyu, that she transformed herself into the Sixth Prince who was switched by someone else, and the Shen family was able to be saved.
Now, she would not marry Xiao Tingshan again, and naturally she did not want Shen Jingyu to marry Xiao Yuncheng again...
After all, her last name is Shen. In this life, as long as she is unmarried, she will not be able to stay out of trouble and will eventually be implicated.
Shen Jingyu, it seems that what you ask for and hope for is destined to be unfulfilled earlier than in your previous life.
Qin Xuerong thought Shen Shuyi was just jealous, and couldn't help but smile hypocritically: "Sister Yi, I know you feel bad. After all, you don't even have the chance to present the gift to the Queen Mother. Even if you get the benefit of the Marquis' Mansion, what can you do?"
Shen Qinghuan couldn't help but said, "Mother may have forgotten that the pagoda given by Princess Guining also belongs to my second sister. Moreover, the Queen Mother personally ordered my sister to come to the palace often to accompany her."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xuerong became even more angry, glaring at Shen Qinghuan and said, "Okay, now anyone dares to bully me."
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Qin Xuerong to speak like this.
After all, in the past, her stepmother would have been very patient.
Shen Shuyi saw what she was thinking, and didn't hide the fact that Qin Xuerong was right in front of her. She said slowly, "If a person keeps failing and losing, he will be eager to win. The more he wants to win, the more impatient he will be, and he may even take risks. In this case, how can he have a chance of winning?"
Shen Qinghuan pondered Shen Shuyi's words carefully, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your advice, second sister."
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "How can I take this as advice? I'm just chatting casually."
After hearing this, Qin Xuerong's expression became even more ferocious. It was obvious that this bastard Shen Shuyi didn't take her seriously at all.
She took a step forward, getting closer to Shen Shuyi, and lowered her voice and said, "Shen Shuyi, don't be too proud too soon. When Jingyu becomes the eighth prince's consort, the first person she will deal with will be you!"
Shen Shuyi curled his lips as if he was looking at a fool.
"She is just the Eighth Prince's wife, not the emperor. Mother is really surprised by what she has seen so often."
Her nonchalant look made Qin Xuerong tremble with anger: "You...you...!!!"
As they were talking, they heard the eunuch's reward.
"Award Shen Jingyu, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue Shen Jingchuan, a pair of dragon and phoenix, a phoenix crown with golden beads and flowers, and ten rolls of southern silk brocade..."
A series of rewards came like a stream, and most of them were in pairs and suitable for women to get married. The attitude was clearly visible.
Many people were immediately certain of the royal family's attitude. After all, the Queen Mother would only act in this way if His Majesty gave in.
Now that Shen Jingyu has been given such a great honor, I believe that as soon as she returns to Beijing, the imperial decree granting marriage will come down.
Concubine Jing's expression also looked much better now. After all, if Shen Jingyu's preparations were not thorough and the gifts she sent were not to the empress dowager's liking, even if the empress dowager wanted to reward her, she would only do it perfunctorily.
There was also a hint of joy in Shen Jingyu's eyes, and she bowed respectfully to thank God for his grace.
Shen Jingyu and the Qin family finally put their minds at ease after getting what they wanted.
Concubine Jing looked at Shen Jingyu and said gently, "You did a good job today, but the Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion is also coming aggressively. If you can make friends with your sister, Yu Yuncheng will be a great help."
Concubine Jing was indeed jealous of the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion. After all, Mr. Zhao had been a soldier for half his life and had great prestige in the army. Even though he had been deliberately keeping a low profile in recent years, it was because he took the initiative to distance himself from the army and did not want to implicate his comrades.
Not only that, the Zhao family is also a family of brave and resourceful generals. The eldest son has outstanding martial arts, the second son is smart and clever, and the two grandsons seem to be even better now.
And Shen Shuyi has now won the favor of the Queen Mother. If Yuncheng can be won over, he will be even more powerful.
Hearing this, the smile on Shen Jingyu's face faded.
"Your Majesty, some people are destined to never join forces. My mother has taken over her mother's position. How can she let it go?" Shen Jingyu spoke slowly.
Concubine Jing turned her head and looked at her without saying anything.
Shen Jingyu said again: "Besides, instead of asking for help from such an unclear person, it is better to choose someone who is loyal to you."
Hearing Shen Jingyu's hint, Concubine Jing sneered, "How can there be so many single-minded people? If everyone was looking for single-mindedness, Yuncheng would have been killed long ago."
Shen Jingyu lowered her eyes and said nothing.
Concubine Jing slowed down her tone and continued, "The world is full of people, all for profit. Don't you think that people who defected to Yuncheng are wavering? I know you have had a dirty deal with her, but if you can make such a person work for you, that's a real skill."
"What's more, when the day comes, won't she be at your mercy? By then, everyone will be at your mercy."
Shen Jingyu was reluctant at first, but she could tell that Concubine Jing was really trying to give her advice sincerely, so she listened attentively.
After a while, she whispered, "Jingyu was deeply moved by what the queen said, and will definitely try her best to win her over and use her for her own benefit."
Hearing this, Concubine Jing nodded in satisfaction, glanced at Concubine Rou who was not far away, smiled, and said again: "If some people are destined to be enemies, then get rid of them as soon as possible, and don't let them become trouble."
Shen Jingyu's throat tightened.
Of course she understood this principle, but unfortunately, she failed several times. It seemed that Shen Shuyi was really evil!
"what!!!"
Suddenly, a piercing scream came from above, and many guards subconsciously drew their swords and became alert.
But when he looked up, he saw that it was the palace maid beside the Queen Mother who had overturned the tray in her hand, and the jade pot and the fine wine fell to the ground, rolling on a layer of sand.
Perhaps realizing that she had misbehaved, the maid quickly knelt on the ground, her face pale and her eyes full of panic: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, it was the prayer wheel... the prayer wheel..."
