"When my sister opens her mouth, Fengjiao naturally wants to satisfy her. But today, my sister can't take the lead. Why don't I ask my eldest sister to play the piano? My piano skills are naturally inferior to those of my eldest sister." Shen Fengjiao said shyly.

But the corner of her eye fell directly on Shen Xinyue's face.

Shen Xinyue has never learned music and female music properly since she was a child, so Shen Xinyue was often ridiculed for this matter in Jiangnan.

Shen Xinyue's face darkened. She was a miracle doctor in modern times. She only knew how to perform surgeries and take pulses with her skillful hands. She had not dabbled in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and could only be considered a beginner.

In this ancient time, all women from wealthy families were proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting and nvren. This was a required course for them.

When Shen Fengjiao said this, it was obvious that she wanted to make Shen Xinyue, who had no musical proficiency, make a fool of herself in public!

"It seems that you have heard about my reputation in Jiangnan, so you should know that Shen Fengjiao is a famous and talented girl in Jiangnan. As an elder sister, I will naturally give my younger sister more opportunities."

Shen Xinyue narrowed her eyes and said loudly.

Shen Fengjiao disagrees. All the ladies and concubines here want to see a joke, so she will definitely make Shen Xinyue embarrassed in public today! Only in this way can she bring out the excellence of Shen Fengjiao!

When Lan Qingruo saw the person in the distance, her eyes were filled with shock, and she quickly lowered her head. She originally wanted to speak, but now she tightly closed her mouth, not daring to say a word.

"Sister, how can my sister steal the limelight from my elder sister? In such a scene, only my elder sister can play the piano. My younger sister is of low status, so I'm afraid playing the piano won't reach your ears. Sister, don't hide it, I know it. , my sister plays the piano the best."

Shen Fengjiao refused to let Shen Xinyue hide away easily.

Suddenly, a cheerful male voice appeared.

"My imperial garden is so lively!"

The visitor was wearing a bright yellow robe with a nine-clawed golden dragon on it, which was exquisitely made.

This person is none other than the current sage, Emperor Huo Tianyi.

The person next to Huo Tianyi was none other than the Regent Huo Weilou! The two of them stood together, and they were even fifty-six percent similar in appearance.

"I have met the emperor. Long live the queen! Long live the regent! Thousands of years old!"

"Queen, I was passing by the Imperial Garden, and why did I hear someone being disrespectful to the Princess Regent? Tell me, why?" Huo Tianyi asked.

The queen's expression changed slightly, while the others' expressions changed drastically.

Why did Huo Tianyi come? On weekdays, the queen would hold palace banquets when she had nothing to do, gathering the concubines in the palace together.

But Huo Tianyi never asked or came.

But when the queen saw Huo Wei Tower, she had some suspicions in her heart.

Huo Weilou couldn't help but feel a little angry when he heard that these people dared to embarrass Shen Xinyue.

Huo Tianyi came today because Huo Weilou met with him in the afternoon.

Before, study room.

"Wei Lou, you have handled your work well these days, and I am very satisfied. By the way, you married a wife some time ago, but I have never seen her."

"Your Majesty, the princess will also attend the palace banquet hosted by the queen today. Why don't you and your Majesty go together to see the excitement?" Huo Weilou replied neither humble nor overbearing.

Huo Tianyi's emotions were all hidden in his eyes, but there was a slight smile on his face: "Of course, I'll leave now."

A dark light flickered in Huo Tian's eyes. He knew Shen Xinyue's origin and past very well, so he understood that Huo Weilou's visit to him this time was just because he was worried that Shen Xinyue would be bullied. He wanted to go, but there was no suitable person. The reason. But if he goes with the emperor, he doesn't need a reason. He can protect his princess.

Therefore, Huo Tianyi took advantage of the situation and sold Huo Weilou a favor.

Royal Garden.

The queen told Huo Tianyi the conversation they had just had.

Huo Tian frowned, and Shen Fengjiao lowered her head and did not dare to speak, but her body could not help but tremble.

"I didn't expect that there would be people who would be disrespectful to the regent princess! As a concubine, she actually wants to embarrass her eldest daughter! You really don't know any respect!" Huo Tianyi angrily scolded Shen Fengjiao.

Everyone was silent, no one stood up to speak for Shen Fengjiao.

"Your Majesty, the daughter of the people...the daughter of the people realizes her mistake..." Shen Fengjiao fell to her knees on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Shen Fengjiao looked at those people who encouraged her to provoke Shen Xinyue with pleading eyes. However, some of the ladies were looking at the flowers and some at the ground. No one cared about her life or death.

At this time, Shen Fengjiao experienced firsthand what it meant to be alone and helpless.

At the same time, she also knew what despair was.

If no one had helped her, she might have died in the palace today.

Shen Fengjiao burst into tears immediately. She was scared, she was really scared.

Shen Xinyue took some time to look at Shen Fengjiao's embarrassment, and finally she spoke.

"Your Majesty, Fengjiao is my concubine. She is used to being carefree. Today, she made some unscrupulous remarks in the palace, which made His Majesty unhappy. Xinyue is here to apologize to Your Majesty for Fengjiao, and also asks Your Majesty to forgive my concubine. unreasonable."

Shen Fengjiao raised her head sharply and looked at Shen Xinyue.

She never thought that at such a time, it would be Shen Xinyue who spoke for her!

Huo Tianyi never expected that it would happen like this. He thought that if he was stricter and stood up for Shen Xinyue, he could gain Huo Weilou's favor. But he didn't expect that Shen Xinyue didn't intend to take revenge?

But it's okay, his goal of wanting Huo Weilou's favor has been achieved.

"What do Weilou think?" Huo Tianyi left the decision-making power to Huo Weilou.

"Just listen to the princess. Since the princess will not hold her disrespectful, give her a chance. Next time, I will punish you severely." Huo Weilou said calmly.

Huo Tian nodded and pretended that this had not happened.

But Shen Fengjiao and the ladies from the aristocratic families were trembling. This time the palace banquet was not as lively as in the past. Everyone saw that the atmosphere was heavy. Although they tried to mediate, the effect was not great.

Therefore, after the sky darkened, the palace banquet ended.

Shen Fengjiao was still trembling with fear until she followed the old princess back to the palace, fearing that her head would be lost.

Several people got off the carriage together, Shen Fengjiao held Shen Xinyue's hand tightly, she was still scared.

In desperation, Shen Xinyue could only let Huo Weilou go back by himself, while she first sent Shen Fengjiao back to the courtyard where she was staying temporarily.

When they arrived in the room, only Shen Xinyue and Shen Fengjiao were left.

Their maids were guarding the yard to prevent others from approaching.

Shen Fengjiao caught Shen Xinyue's eyes and noticed from her eyes that Shen Xinyue was not in a good mood.

Shen Fengjiao thought Shen Xinyue wanted to educate her, but when had she been educated by Shen Xinyue?

In the past, it was Shen Fengjiao who educated Shen Xinyue in the Shen Mansion! She must not let Shen Xinyue educate her this time!

For this reason, Shen Fengjiao took the initiative and asked sarcastically: "Shen Xinyue, you are really capable. You can even ask the emperor to help you! Why, it's not enough to hook up with a regent, but also hook up with the emperor? Today's drama is also You acted it on purpose, right? To embarrass me deliberately and make it difficult for me to get off the stage among all the ladies and concubines!"

"Shen Fengjiao, use your pig brain. If it weren't for me, it would be a question of whether you could return to the palace alive today." Shen Xinyue looked down at her mockingly.

Shen Fengjiao hated Shen Xinyue's look the most. She was furious: "Shen Xinyue, what do you mean? Do you think I will be grateful to you for saying those words? If you hadn't seduced them, Will they help you like this? Shen Xinyue, you are no better than me! If you can sit in the position of Princess Regent, so can I! Sooner or later, this position will be mine!"

Shen Xinyue wanted to talk to Shen Fengjiao in a normal tone, but Shen Fengjiao didn't give her a chance at all. It seemed that she had to let Shen Fengjiao calm down.

Shen Xinyue slapped Shen Fengjiao's face directly, and a crisp slap sounded. Immediately afterwards, a bright red slap mark appeared on Shen Fengjiao's face, and one side of her cheek instantly swollen.

The two maids in the yard heard the commotion and barged in directly.

Si Qi was worried that Shen Xinyue would be beaten by Shen Fengjiao, so he hurriedly came in to protect the master.

And Shen Fengjiao's maid was also worried that she would come too late and make Shen Fengjiao unhappy waiting. She was afraid that she would be beaten, so she rushed in quickly.

Neither of the two maids expected that the person being beaten turned out to be Shen Fengjiao.

"Miss, are you okay?"

"Princess, are you okay?"

The two maids said in unison.

But one of them was concerned about Shi Fengjiao's face, while Si Qi was worried that Shen Xinyue would hurt his hand when he hit someone.

"Si Qi, take her to the yard to wait for me. No one is allowed in before I leave." Shen Xinyue waved her hand.

"Yes, Princess." Si Qi always followed Shen Xinyue's orders to the letter and executed them immediately.

Although Shen Fengjiao's maid wanted to help Shen Fengjiao, she was soft-spoken and did not dare to disobey the princess's order. She could only follow Si Qi out with a worried look on her face.

When there were only two people left in the room again, Shen Xinyue said unceremoniously: "Shen Fengjiao, you are really stupid."

"You!" Shen Fengjiao subconsciously spoke out, but because of the burning pain on her face, she stopped talking.

"Those young ladies at the palace banquet and Princess An Ning are just taking advantage of you. Not only did you not notice, you even rushed to be their dog!"

"They treated you as a gunman, but you not only didn't hide, but you even enjoyed being stupid! Shen Fengjiao, do you really have a brain?"

Shen Fengjiao thought that when the emperor came just now, no one spoke for her. Only Shen Xinyue interceded for her, which saved her from punishment.

Thinking of this, Shen Fengjiao lowered her head and did not dare to speak.

"Shen Fengjiao, if you continue to be so brainless, you will not only kill yourself, but also the entire Shen family! If you offend Miss Shijia and Princess Anning, what kind of impact will the Shen family's business be affected? I don't need to tell you. Say it again?"

"If you are allowed to offend the emperor today, the Shen family's business will not be affected as easily. The whole Shen family may be wiped out." The following words were deliberately spoken by Shen Xinyue to scare Shen Fengjiao.

When Shen Fengjiao woke up from her dream, she realized what kind of stupid thing she had done! She actually had to rely on Shen Xinyue to remind her!

Shen Fengjiao's body suddenly trembled, and she felt a sense of fear in her heart. Did her actions today...have she offended them?

Seeing that Shen Fengjiao was woken up by herself, Shen Xinyue stopped intervening too much between Shen Fengjiao and the Shen family. If Song Ruyu hadn't been in the Shen family, no matter how hard Shen Fengjiao tried to commit suicide, she would not have cared about her. Life or death, even if he was thrown in front of her dead, she would not frown.

"Shen Fengjiao, the choice is yours. Whether you want to continue to be stupid and become a gun and a scapegoat in the hands of others is up to you."

After Shen Xinyue finished speaking, she opened the door, called Siqi, and went back to her yard with her.

Shen Fengjiao sat at the table and thought carefully about what Shen Xinyue said.

The maid brought the ointment and applied it to Shen Fengjiao gently.

If they were put together, Shen Fengjiao would punish the maid if she applied the medicine a little too hard, but today, Shen Fengjiao seemed not to feel the pain and said nothing.
