When Prince Xun said this, Xiao Yi's heart skipped a beat, as if his secrets had been touched upon.

Xiao Yi tried his best to defend himself, "Uncle Eight, what you said is wrong. I am just a wandering wanderer, and I have not yet found my way home. I am not like you, Uncle Eight, who is full of romantic affairs."

After hearing this, Prince Xun sneered and said, "A carefree man? As long as he's a man, who can't be romantic? Prince Yu doesn't care about women, but I hope you don't have a homosexual habit, hahahahaha."

Prince Xun mocked Xiao Yi in a sarcastic tone, causing the guests to look at him sideways.

After hearing this, Xiao Rui said unhappily, "There are many women at the banquet. Prince Yun has overstepped the boundaries! Just eat your meal properly!"

Xiao Rui did not call him Eighth Uncle, but instead called him by his title. Everyone understood that the emperor was angry, and no one dared to speak. Prince Xun had to shut up.

Concubine Ru wanted to watch Prince Yun continue to ridicule Song Qingwan, but the emperor stopped this farce.

Turning around to look at Song Qingwan, who was enjoying her meal leisurely, he felt so unhappy!

She had entered the palace long before her, and in the blink of an eye she had become equal to her. She was also given a warning by the emperor because of what happened last time. How could she not hate him in her heart?

What’s even more infuriating is that after Zuo Wenyi gave birth to the fifth prince, her body became very out of shape and she no longer looked like a young girl. On the contrary, Song Qingwan became more and more feminine!

Song Qingwan noticed that Rupin was staring at her closely, and tilted her head and said, "Madam Rupin, how are you?"

Rupin snorted, "I'm fine!" and turned away and stopped looking at her.

Shen Guiren was sitting nearby, so she naturally saw the quarrel between the two. She shook her head and chuckled. Now she was not interested in the quarrel between these people.

All the things I worry about are about offspring.

Shen Guiren raised his head and looked for the familiar figure opposite him. He seemed to have become more mature. From a distance, he was talking appropriately with the people around him.

His wife was still as virtuous as ever, serving him food. She was so gentle and quiet. The two of them sitting together looked like a perfect match!

Soon, Prince Anling noticed Concubine Shen's gaze.

Prince Anling looked at Concubine Shen with surprise, his eyes seemed to contain thousands of words, and he wished he could go to her side immediately.

Concubine Shen's eyes were also filled with affection, and she looked at Prince Anling tenderly...

"Your Highness, please try this crane seed soup. It is very soft and tasty." Princess Anling picked up a piece of crane seed soup and gave it to Prince Anling.

But Prince Anling's eyes were full of Concubine Shen, and he didn't hear what Princess Anling was saying at all.

"Your Highness?" Princess Anling called out.

Prince Anling said perfunctorily, "Yes, I see," but his eyes were all on the person opposite him.

Princess Yuan Yuan of Prince Anling followed his gaze and saw the blushing and cute Concubine Shen opposite her. She already understood what was going on.

At first, Yuan Yuan only knew a little about their secret affair. Whenever there was a banquet in the palace, the prince would always find an excuse to leave. Even after the banquet was over, he would always arrange for a carriage to take him back home, and he would stay for most of the day.

And every time the two of them exchange glances, it always makes people imagine a lot.

The day I was honest with the prince was after returning from the last palace banquet. I wanted to help him rest, but I found kiss marks on his body. As soon as I asked him a question, he became angry and pushed me away...

Only when I questioned him with tears on his face did he admit that he had an ulterior motive in getting close to Concubine Shen. Concubine Shen was the emperor's concubine and the daughter of the general of the current dynasty. If he could get through this connection, he would be able to accomplish his planned cause in the future.

Tell yourself not to think too much and not to bother him.

Until today, I saw the two of them exchanging glances again. That kind of look was something the prince had never given me after we got married.

After the banquet, Yuan Yuan walked up to Concubine Shen and said, "I pay my respects to you, Concubine Shen."

Shen Guiren recognized her, she was the princess of Prince Anling. When she saw her suddenly coming to her, Shen Guiren thought she was coming to call her to task, and she couldn't help but break into a sweat.

"Hello, Princess." said the noble lady.

Yuan Yuan looked at the hairpin on Lady Shen's head, smiled calmly and said, "I also have the apricot blossom hairpin on Lady Shen's head!"

Concubine Shen didn't know what she wanted to say. Could it be that she had other intentions and was talking about the hairpin on the surface, but was secretly referring to the person?

So he pretended to be surprised and said, "Really? That's really a coincidence!"

Yuan Yuan replied, "Maybe it's not a coincidence, they are a pair! Your hairpin should not be made in the palace, it must be something outside the palace."

Zhenzhu, the maid of Concubine Shen, looked at her master guiltily. This Princess Anling must be referring to Prince Anling!

Concubine Shen pretended to be calm and said, "Princess, you have good eyesight. It is indeed something from outside the palace. I had this hairpin before I entered the palace."

Yuan Yuan asked, "My branch is in Quxin Pavilion. Would you like to take a look?"

Quxin Pavilion was a place where princes, nobles, and their families would temporarily rest when they entered the palace.

Zhenzhu supported Concubine Shen's hand, squeezed it quietly, and signaled to her master with her eyes not to go.

This woman must be no good. She must have known about the affair between Prince Anling and her own mistress and deliberately came to call her to task.

Lady Shen was also a little hesitant at this moment.

Yuan Yuan continued with a firm look in her eyes, "Would you like to come and take a look? See if they are a couple or if I have made a mistake."

Forget it, Shen Gui made up her mind and decided to go. After all, this was in the palace. What could she do to me? If she wanted to tell him those things, she would have told him at the banquet. She would not have waited until the guests left before coming to find me.

"Okay, I'll go with you and have a chat with the princess."

Pearl whispered, "My lord!"

Yuan Yuan said, "Please follow me, my dear."

Quxing Pavilion

After Yuan Yuan brought Concubine Shen here, she immediately sent someone to notify the prince to come over.

After Shen Guiren sat down, she looked around and asked casually, "Where is the hairpin that the princess mentioned?"

Yuan Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord. I have sent someone to get it. It should be here soon."

Shen Guiren uncomfortably tried to find a topic to talk about. "Well, this pavilion has a beautiful scenery and a gentle autumn breeze. It's a good place to rest."

Yuan Yuan said, "Yes, it's a good place."

And at the same time

The people sent to invite King Anling were ruthlessly rejected.

Prince Anling said impatiently, "I won't go back now! What are you asking me to do? What can she do?"

The palace maid relayed, "The princess said... there is someone you need to meet in person..."
