Chapter 1092 Shen Maoxue's Warning
Oh, what a good calculation!
The coldness in Lin Wan's eyes became even more intense.
The more respectful and dependent Shen Nanqiao acted towards Concubine Chen, the more guilty she felt in her opinion, and it confirmed the shady activities going on in the Mountain Resort!
Lin Wan drank the slightly cool tea in the cup and suppressed the anger and contempt that was surging in her heart.
She wanted to see how long this hypocritical sisterhood could last!
As time went on, the sounds of stringed instruments and orchestras gradually died down.
Nangong Xuanyu said happily: "Today is Concubine Chen's birthday, everyone should enjoy it together and have a great time!"
This grand and solemn birthday banquet finally came to an end.
Nangong Xuanyu stood up first, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he turned his head to look at Shen Zhinian beside him. His deep eyes revealed undisguised doting and concern.
He leaned forward slightly, and his deep voice could be heard clearly in the quiet hall, with the intimacy that only belonged to the emperor and his concubine: "Nian Nian, are you tired today? I will take you back to Zhongcui Palace."
Shen Zhinian smiled sweetly, her eyes showing just the right amount of dependence and gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration."
She took the hand that Fuqiu extended and stood up gracefully.
The emperor and his concubine stood side by side, one with a graceful figure, the other radiant with beauty.
Everyone immediately said: "Farewell, Your Majesty!"
"Farewell, Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine!"
The happiest person at this moment would be Su Quanye, who had been waiting in the side hall.
Ok!
Fortunately, nothing went wrong at Concubine Chen's birthday banquet today.
Otherwise, considering His Majesty's love for Concubine Chen, he would not be able to live in peace today...
As soon as the emperor and his concubine left, the atmosphere in the hall noticeably relaxed.
The officials and ladies stood up one after another, greeted each other, and walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony in order of rank, led by palace servants.
Shen Nanqiao followed Shen Maoxue and walked out with the crowd, still with a grateful look on his face.
It was not until the figures of Shen Zhinian and Nangong Xuanyu completely disappeared from sight that the gentle smile that Shen Nanqiao had deliberately maintained on his face disappeared without a trace, and there was a cold hatred in his eyes.
Shen Zhinian!
What a great family!
Did she think that she could wipe out all the hatred between them with just a few words?
Shen Nanqiao took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the anger surging in his heart.
Now is not the time.
She must continue to play the role of a sister who has come to her senses, lying dormant, waiting for the opportunity to strike the fatal blow!
Luoluo followed Shen Nanqiao carefully, not daring to breathe. She only felt that the chill emanating from her wife was colder than the night wind in late autumn...
Lin Wan also walked slowly out with the crowd, deliberately slowing down her pace, and looked at Shen Nanqiao's back coldly.
Why else did she go to such great lengths to please Concubine Chen, other than wanting to find a backer for herself?
Shen Nanqiao must be feeling guilty!
She was afraid that her affair with her husband would be exposed, that she would be divorced by the Lu family, and that she would be despised by the Shen family. She was even more afraid that... Concubine Chen, the powerful sister, would be the first to dislike her after learning about her scandal!
Therefore, Shen Nanqiao had to take the initiative and use this false sisterhood to tie down Concubine Chen so that she could get some protection when something happened!
Really... such a deep conspiracy and such despicable means!
Lin Wan just felt nauseous, as if she saw those unbearable scenes in the Summer Resort.
Is this the woman that her husband is willing to take risks and even hurt himself to protect?
Lin Wan looked at Shen Nanqiao's figure disappearing around the corner of the palace gate, her eyes becoming sharp and cold.
Shen Nanqiao wants to rely on Concubine Chen as a big tree? Dream on!
She is determined to get to the bottom of Shen Nanqiao's shameful deeds!
Let Shen Nanqiao and that unfaithful man pay the price!
the other side.
The carriage rolled over the bluestone road outside the palace gate, making a monotonous and dull sound.
The chill of late autumn seeped in through the gaps in the car curtains. The carriage was silent except for the sound of the wheels rolling and Shen Maoxue's slightly heavy breathing.
Shen Nanqiao lowered his head, folded his hands on his knees, his fingertips were cold, and he maintained his usual weak posture in front of his father.
"Nan Qiao."
Shen Maoxue's voice broke the silence, with a kind of fatigue after the dust settled, and a hint of barely perceptible satisfaction: "You did a good job today."
His eyes fell on Shen Nanqiao's pale face, and his tone softened a little: "In front of His Majesty and the civil and military officials of the court, your attitude is quite decent, and the Royal Concubine Chen also gave you a way out."
Shen Nanqiao raised her head slightly, with gratitude and a hint of fear in her eyes. She said softly, "Daughter...daughter just remembers father's teachings and dares not act recklessly and cause trouble for father and Concubine Chen."
"Seeing that Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine Chen is willing to forgive me, I am truly... grateful to you."
As she spoke, her eyes seemed to turn red again.
Shen Maoxue nodded, feeling quite happy with Shen Nanqiao's understanding. He then stroked his beard and warned him earnestly, "It's good that you can understand this principle."
"Remember, at all times, you sisters are one. Prosperity and adversity are shared by all!"
"The glory of Concubine Chen is the glory of the Shen family, and it will also be your support in the future!"
At this point, Shen Maoxue paused, his eyes became sharp, staring into Shen Nanqiao's eyes, and emphasized his tone: "Put away all those confused thoughts you had in the past. From now on, be a quiet wife of yours, do your duty, and truly respect and protect your sister!"
"This is the way you should go! Do you understand?"
Really respect.
Protect your sister.
These words were like red-hot needles, piercing Shen Nanqiao's heart!
Shen Nanqiao forced herself to suppress the hatred in her heart, took a deep breath, and when she looked up again, only respect was left on her face: "My daughter understands, and will definitely remember my father's admonition today!"
"In the past, my daughter was confused and didn't know the big picture. From now on, my daughter will respect the Empress Chen Guifei and put the dignity of the Empress Chen and the Shen family first in everything. I will never dare to have the slightest unrealistic thoughts again!"
Her tone was firm and firm, almost like a swearing or swearing.
"Ah."
Shen Maoxue nodded in satisfaction, leaned back against the wall of the carriage and closed his eyes to rest: "I am relieved that you think so."
The carriage drove along the quiet street and finally stopped at the side door of Lu Mansion.
Lu Jianglin had already taken his mother to take up his new post. The huge Lu Mansion seemed empty and deserted, with only a few old servants left behind to greet them.
"Father, walk slowly."
Shen Nanqiao respectfully saw Shen Maoxue's carriage off. It was not until the carriage disappeared at the end of the street corner that the gentle expression on her face faded away like the tide, leaving only a biting coldness.
"Madam, are you back?"
Shen Nanqiao ignored the old servant's greeting, and walked straight across the empty courtyard with Luluo and returned to the room he had not lived in for a long time.
