The thoughts in Shen Ying's heart were coming out, making her completely absent-minded. Later, when I heard that the theater troupe was singing in front of me, Shen Ying took Zhou Yingxue to the theater.

When Zhou Yingxue was fascinated, Shen Ying found another reason and left quietly.

Mrs. Chen was talking to several ladies of her family when a servant came in and said that the second young lady was in an emergency.

She thought something had happened, explained a few words to the ladies, and hurried to the side room.

"What's wrong? You're so anxious to find me." Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter first when she entered the door, and saw that she didn't seem to be wronged, but instead showed inexplicable excitement on her face.

When Shen Ying saw Mrs. Chen coming in, she stepped forward and took her arm.

"Mom, I heard that Prince Duan is here."

Chen didn't know why, "Prince Duan is here, what's wrong?"

Shen Ying whispered: "Mom, I heard from the little princess that the inner palace of Prince Duan's Mansion is in chaos."

"Shen Yue is an eyesore in the mansion, why not let her serve Prince Duan."

"Hasn't father always wanted to hook up with Prince Duan? Isn't this a good opportunity?"

Mrs. Chen was a little surprised. She didn't know why Shen Ying thought of this.

It is a bit unbearable and dirty for a young lady who has not left the government to secretly study who her sisters should serve.

So Chen subconsciously scolded her, "What nonsense are you talking about? That's your sister anyway."

Shen Ying ignored Chen's scolding and snorted: "What kind of sister is she? She is just a despicable concubine."

"I don't know what my grandmother and third uncle think. They treat her better than me."

Shen Ying took Mrs. Chen's arm again and said coquettishly: "Mom, I won't be happy if Shen Yue is in this house."

Mrs. Chen pulled Shen Ying's hand away and said, "Don't make trouble. How could such a scandal happen on the day of your eldest brother's wedding?"

"Besides, if Shen Yue causes a scandal, it will also affect your marriage."

For Chen, nothing is as important as Shen Zhao's marriage.

So these days, even her confidants and supervisors were told to stop causing trouble to Su Qingyu. It would be better than anything else to complete Shen Zhao's marriage in a glorious manner. As for taking care of Su Qingyu, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so there is no rush now.

Shen Ying said unhappily: "Mom, you know that big brother is talking about me now."

"Look, the young Marquis is still thinking about Shen Yue. If you think of a way to get Shen Yue to serve Prince Duan, maybe the marriage between the young Marquis and I can still come true."

Mrs. Chen was so angry that the veins on her forehead bulged, "Are you still thinking about Mr. Zhang Xiaohou? He has canceled his marriage to Shen Yue, how can he possibly discuss marriage with you again?"

"You should give up on me as soon as possible."

"Besides, what does it look like for you, a girl's family, to open your mouth and keep silent about getting married?"

Shen Ying said hurriedly: "Whether I marry Mr. Zhang Xiaohou or not is a matter for later. What I am talking about now is Shen Yue."

"I just don't want to see her at home. If my mother doesn't agree with me, I won't live at home. I...I'll go find my eldest sister."

Shen Ying's eldest sister is Shen Wu, the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter of the eldest family, who married into the royal palace of Rong County as the eldest concubine.

Mrs. Chen was afraid that she would really bother Shen Wu, who was pregnant, so she hurriedly said, "Don't bother your eldest sister. Your eldest sister is having a hard time getting pregnant."

Shen Ying continued: "Help me, mother, we will do it quietly. We won't let others know, and we won't make a joke."

"As long as Shen Yue marries Prince Duan, I will feel at ease. Only by letting her suffer in the back house of Prince Duan's palace for the rest of her life can I get out of my bad breath."

Mrs. Chen's head hurt from being tortured by Shen Ying, and she thought about what she said again.

She also disliked this concubine's daughter who was registered under her name. It was only because of Shen Zhixiu and the old lady that she had been able to maintain the image of a legitimate mother all these years.

If it is true as Shen Ying said, it would be a good idea to quietly let Shen Yue serve Prince Duan.

Moreover, on days like this, when there are many people at home and many things to do, it is easier to get things done quietly.

After all, Mrs. Chen has been in charge of the family for more than ten years. As soon as this matter came to her mind, she knew what to do.

She whispered in Shen Ying's ear: "Go find Aunt Zhang and do this..."

Shen Ying nodded repeatedly, and Mrs. Chen asked again: "Don't make this matter a big deal. After all, it is your brother's marriage. Do you remember?"

"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely handle this matter with Nanny Zhang. Mother's idea is watertight, and there is no way Shen Yue will see the clues."

Mrs. Chen signaled Shen Ying to find Nanny Zhang, and she called her personal maid.

"Go and tell the eldest master, I have arranged for someone to serve Prince Duan."

Although Mrs. Chen and Prince Duan were somewhat related, Princess Duan passed away early, and the relationship was effectively broken over the years.

Prince Duan is the elder brother of the current emperor, and the two brothers have a very good relationship. Shen Zhiheng has always wanted to get close to Prince Duan, but there has never been a suitable opportunity.

Prince Duan came this time for Shen Zhixiu's sake.

Mrs. Chen knew that Shen Zhiheng would definitely agree and cooperate fully if she said this.

Shen Yue, who was hiding in her yard at this time, didn't know yet that the gears of fate changed by Su Qingyu's rebirth were turning again.

Jade did not wait beside Shen Yue, but hid in an inconspicuous place in the dark.

Just after noon, a unfamiliar little maid came in and said that the third lady asked her to deliver a message.

Shen Yue sat at the nanmu kang table in the banquet room and ordered people to come in, "Third Aunt asked you to deliver a message? What did you say?"

The little maid was wearing a pea green satin skirt, with a double bun, and a pair of bright eyes that showed a bit of agility.

"In reply to Miss San, Madam San said that the old lady of the Su family and Miss Su's fourth family are here, and she would like you to come over and talk with them."

Shen Yue felt suspicious, "Why are you delivering the message? Where are you serving?"

"The slave is served by Beiyuan, and her name is Xiao Xi. Because Beiyuan is pure and clean, the third lady placed her there to rest."

"Everyone around the third lady was busy. Seeing that the slave was free, she sent the slave to deliver the message."

There was nothing wrong with Xiao Xi's words, and the Beiyuan area was indeed pristine. It was regarded as a yard prepared for guests at home.

But if the old lady of the Su family comes, shouldn't she go to Qingyuan Residence to talk?

Seeing that Shen Yue didn't say anything, Xiao Xi explained, "When the old lady of the Su family came, she suddenly felt a little flustered and short of breath, so she went straight to Beiyuan to rest."

In fact, she forgot this sentence, and suddenly remembered it, so she could only add this sentence.

Shen Yue's face remained calm, "You go back first, I'll change my clothes and go."

After Xiao Xi bowed and retreated, Jade came out of the darkness.

"Third Miss, there must be something going on here. Our wife also said this morning that the Su family won't come until tomorrow."

Originally, the madam asked her to guard the third lady, but she didn't take it seriously. Now it seems that Madam was right to worry.

Shen Yue looked at Jade with a solemn expression.

"Do you want me to go or not?"

After thinking for a while, he said: "I want to find out the person behind the scenes. Let's go to Beiyuan."
