After being reborn with Sister Zha, I was stunned!

"What? Are you going to hand it over yourself?" Qin Jinshu showed a smug look on her lips.

It's impossible to hand it over...

A body search is a must.

She just wanted to step on her hard in front of everyone.

Let her be too embarrassed to show up in such occasions in the future.

It would be best if I could not even leave the house from now on...

In this world, beauty alone is useless.

Without a noble status, everything is in vain.

"Your Highness, you are joking. I have never seen your jade pendant, so how can I hand it over to you? I just have something to remind you, Your Highness." Shen Qingyin's expression was indifferent, and there was even a hint of a smile on his face.

Qin Jinshu sneered and became more aggressive: "Humph, reminding this princess? You are so arrogant! Are you trying to delay time by talking nonsense? Let me tell you, nothing you say today will work!"

"Cough, cough——" Mrs. Mu suddenly coughed twice.

Realizing that she had lost her composure, Qin Jinshu softened her tone and said, "Just tell me what you want to say. This princess has always been tolerant and kind. I'll give you a chance to argue."

It's no harm to let the prey fall into the trap and struggle a little. She can't escape anyway.

Shen Qingyin cast a grateful look towards Madam Mu and continued:

"I just want to remind you, my lady, that you shouldn't search me."

"Then who should be responsible?" Qin Jinshu blurted out.

"My Lady, the laws of our dynasty are strict. If I remember correctly, only the government offices have the right to search the bodies and homes of non-slave criminals and suspects. No one else has the right to do so except the government offices. Violators will be punished with caning..."

"The princess wants to search me today. I know I didn't do anything wrong. After the search, I can prove my innocence. It's not a big deal. But if this gets out, it will be very disadvantageous to the princess!"

"Those who know me know that you lost something and you lost your mind in a panic, so you ignored the law...Those who don't know me think that you knowingly broke the law and ignored the laws of the Beixin Dynasty...If I implicate you and cause you to be caned, how could I bear it?"

Qin Jinshu was stunned for a moment, and then her face turned red with anger.

Ignore the law?

Knowingly committing a crime?

Ignore the law?

As soon as her upper and lower teeth touched, she was accused of a lot of things!

This set of nonsense, under the banner of doing things for her benefit, is actually using the court's laws to suppress her!

Qin Jinshu's face turned pale.

Shen Qingyin had no intention of stopping, and continued to speak carefully: "What's worse, if they misunderstand that Prince An didn't teach his daughter well... that would be even worse..."

"Shut up, shut up!" Qin Jinshu couldn't bear to listen any longer.

"Do you know who my father is? How can I allow you to slander him at will?"

Shen Qingyin immediately knelt down, looking panicked: "Princess, how dare I? I am worried about this happening, so I want to remind you first..."

"You! You... humph!" Qin Jinshu felt like she was about to explode with a breath stuck in her chest.

She really wanted to rush over immediately, tear that mouth apart, and scratch that face...

But when she talked about her father, she couldn't help but think of how he had always told her to keep a low profile when outside and not to ruin the future of Prince An's Mansion...

Forget it, important things matter, so I had to suppress the impulse in my heart.

It was just so hard to endure that my whole body was trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Shen Qingyin said seriously, "Princess, don't be angry, and don't be anxious. If you think I'm suspicious, you can immediately send someone to Jingzhao Prefecture to ask officials to come and investigate. It will be reasonable and legal for them to search me, and it will not cause any trouble to you, the princess, and naturally it will not cause any trouble to Prince An's Mansion. What do you think, Princess?"

His words were still about Qin Jinshu's consideration.

Qin Jinshu suddenly froze.

Ask the officials to conduct a thorough investigation?

How can that work?

Everyone knows that the officials in Jingzhao Prefecture are stubborn and don't give face. Last month, they even sent the queen's relatives to jail...

She just wanted to teach this woman a lesson today on a whim, and she hadn't prepared properly...

If the police were really called in and the truth was discovered, how would she end up today?

"me……"

Qin Jinshu opened her mouth again and again but couldn't say a word. She was really embarrassed.

Almost all the women present lowered their heads and remained silent.

They are not fools.

Even at this point, the princess didn't ask anyone to invite the officials, which was already telling...

"Okay, let's just look for it carefully. Why bother mobilizing so many people and sending runners here?" The eldest princess spoke at the right time and finally rescued Qin Jinshu from the predicament.

The female members of the family also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, yes, it must still be in the garden. Let's look for it again." Everyone echoed.

Another round of searching.

However, this time it didn't take long before Qin Jinshu's maid ran over and shouted, "Found it, found it, the princess's jade pendant was found!"

According to the maid, the jade pendant fell into a snow pit that had not yet melted along the road.

Everyone's mind was clear as a mirror, no one asked for details, only people praised:

"Tsk tsk, it is worthy of being a gift from the Queen. It is indeed a rare gem!"

"Yes, the princess looks so well matched with this jade..."

Because of Qin Jinshu's identity, many women in the family still spoke flattering words to her and tried to please her, but she was obviously no longer in the mood.

There was no response to everyone's praise...

After all the hassle, it was almost noon and everyone returned to the warm hall to prepare for dinner.

Mrs. Du dragged Shen Rongyue along, and she came out from nowhere and blended into the crowd...

The entire lunch was unusually quiet.

It seemed that the food was more delicious than ever before, and everyone was too busy to speak.

Shen Qingyin didn't care and just kept eating.

I got up too early in the morning and was really hungry.

This incident just now came suddenly, and everything was done passively with no choice.

But after this incident, Mrs. Mu must have had a clear impression of her.

Whether or not she would be chosen as the granddaughter-in-law was no longer something she could easily change by saying or doing anything. She could only leave it to fate...

After lunch, the mother and daughter returned home and Shen Zhinian was already waiting at the door.

"How was it? How did you perform in front of the princess today?" Shen Zhinian looked expectant.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Shen Rongyue said perfunctorily and ran to see Qin Yueze.

Shen Qingyin said he was a little tired and returned to his own small courtyard.

Only Mrs. Du followed Shen Zhinian to the hall to talk.

Upon learning that Shen Qingyin had actually offended Princess Jinshu, Shen Zhinian became furious.

"What a reckless thing!"

"What is Princess Jinshu's identity? What is her identity? Doesn't she have any idea?"

"I told her to behave well, but she got me into trouble for no reason!"

He immediately ordered that Shen Qingyin be confined to Fangcao Courtyard and asked him to reflect on his mistakes.

The next morning.

Shen Qingyin was still asleep when he was woken up by Fan'er.

"Second Miss, something big has happened!"

Shen Qingyin suddenly opened his eyes.

Big news? Could it be——

"You won't believe it even if I tell you that the General's Mansion has sent a matchmaker here!" Fan'er's face turned red with excitement.

Shen Qingyin was slightly stunned.

Everything is the same as in the previous life.

I just wonder if he is still interested in Shen Rongyue this time?

"Could it be that he has taken a fancy to you, Second Miss?" Fan'er looked expectant.

"Go to the front yard quietly and listen." Shen Qingyin said.

"Yes, Second Miss!" Fan'er ran out of the door.
