The second lady looked at her for a long time and couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
She had taken on the identity of the real seventh lady of the Zhou family and had a relationship with the regent. Whether this identity was an enemy or a friend to her, the second lady was not sure.
This question is difficult to answer, and Shen Xingwan is not prepared to answer it.
She asked, "How far are you willing to go for Fourth Sister?"
The second lady closed her eyes in pain, "She is the only daughter I have. I live until now because of her. I am willing to do anything for her."
"I want to know why, madam, she is targeting you?" Shen Xingwan asked.
The second lady fell into deep thought, and those suffocating painful memories flooded back to her brain. She pinched her temples and tried to keep herself awake.
The second lady twitched her lips and said, "Miss Seventh, if I say some words, it is very likely that I will die."
This is for her to express her stance.
Shen Xingwan really wanted to talk to her, so he revealed something appropriately, "What I can tell you is that the Zhou family and I, and even the eldest lady, are not of the same mind. In a sense, I am imprisoned in the Zhou family.
of."
"Are you telling the truth?" The second lady was a little shocked. She thought she had at least reached some kind of cooperative relationship with the Zhou family.
"I don't need to lie about this kind of thing anymore." Shen Xingwan said calmly.
The second lady soon realized that the things involved might be more complicated than she thought.
Judging from the current situation, the Zhou family's imprisonment of her must have nothing to do with the regent.
"Your identity is not simple," the second lady blurted out.
Shen Xingwan neither admitted nor denied it.
The second lady began to feel entangled in her heart. It was obviously difficult to go against the entire Zhou family, but Shen Xingwan was the only hope in front of her.
"It's a very important matter, let me think about it." The second lady did not make a decision immediately.
He was helped back while coughing.
Shen Xingwan also got up and went back to his room, and happened to run into Ying'er who was looking for them everywhere.
"Sister, where did you and the young lady just run away?" Ying'er asked in a low voice.
"Oh, I was tired from walking, so I sat under the tree over there for a while." Bai Ling explained.
When a few people returned to the yard, they called out to Mrs. Zhou, who was looking anxiously in front of the door.
Seeing Shen Xingwan coming back, he hurriedly greeted her, "Where's the girl? Let me wait."
"I went for a walk, what happened?" Shen Xingwan asked.
Mammy said anxiously, "Girl, please clean up quickly. The Ninth Princess is here and wants to enter your yard. Madam can't stop her."
Shen Xingwan stopped immediately, "Ninth Princess of Xiling?"
Grandma nodded, not knowing why the little ancestor suddenly came to the door.
"Why is she here?" Shen Xingwan was confused.
"She said she came to see you. She has always had a good relationship with the Prince Regent." Mammy said angrily.
"Yeah…"
Shen Xingwan acted very indifferently, but her mother-in-law urged her to change her clothes, wanting to decorate her from top to bottom.
When the noble Ninth Princess of Xiling came in, Shen Xingwan had just finished drawing the last stroke of eyebrows in the mirror.
The innocent and indulgent little princess rushed in with a whip in her hand, dressed in red like fire.
Shen Xingwan turned around, her eyebrows and eyes were cold, and the rouge on her face made her look particularly cool.
The little princess, who originally came to question her in an aggressive manner, was shocked at first sight, and her temperament instantly weakened by three points, "Are you the girl he likes?"
Shen Xingwan frowned and said nothing.
The Ninth Princess shook the whip in her hand vigorously and said domineeringly, "Tell me, how do you know each other?"
She was so angry that she just went out for horse racing and came back for half a month, and he unexpectedly showed up with a fiancée.
Shen Xingwan said casually while combing his hair, "The official statement is that he saved me."
The Ninth Princess looked at her suspiciously, "What about the reality?"
"I don't know." Shen Xingwan looked a little sad, "I have lost my memory and can't remember the past, nor can I remember that he saved me. They said I broke my brain."
The Ninth Princess retracted her whip in a sullen voice, feeling a little embarrassed that she was bullying the patient.
She looked at Shen Xingwan's face and thought sadly and lostly that even if she looked like this and did nothing, she would probably be able to make people fall in love at first sight.
The Ninth Princess said in frustration, "I will not bless you."
"Ninth Princess is joking. The story about me and the regent is just a scary rumor. In fact, we are not engaged, we are not together, and we are not even close to each other." Shen Xingwan calmly clarified the relationship.
Princess Ninth's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really?"
"Of course it's true."
The Ninth Princess sat down, holding her chin and lost in thought. Shen Xingwan did not interrupt and motioned for everyone else to leave.
In any case, having to deal with that lunatic Qi Han was annoying enough, and she didn't want to offend the royal princess again. Fortunately, the one in front of her didn't seem to be a difficult person to deal with.
The Ninth Princess said without energy, "But, he has already promised to get married."
Shen Xingwan replied coolly, "That's why I was assassinated and almost died."
The Ninth Princess suddenly blushed and said angrily, "Why are you so hard to talk to? You are lucky to marry him."
"I can't afford this blessing." Shen Xingwan still looked indifferent, "My lifelong wish is to cultivate Taoism and become an immortal. I have no thoughts about these secular things."
Princess Ninth's eyes widened, "You..."
Among the many women who were flirting with Qi Han, she had seen all kinds of tricks, but this was the first time she had seen this one by Shen Xingwan.
"Men will only stop me from cultivating Taoism." Shen Xingwan looked unfathomable and unfathomable.
The Ninth Princess's anger and reproachful words suddenly flew away from the sky.
"Are you telling the truth?" Princess Ninth walked around her curiously, feeling that her idea was a bit too magical.
"Of course it's true. I grew up in a Taoist temple, and the only thing in my heart is the Taoism, but now I can only be locked up at home." Shen Xingwan looked sad and lowered his head.
The Ninth Princess looked a little soft-hearted at her glance, "What about that, does the Emperor know what you think?"
Shen Xingwan felt even more uncomfortable, "He looks cold and serious. I dare not talk to him. We are not familiar with each other. I don't know why he said he wanted to marry me..."
The Ninth Princess suddenly felt a little embarrassed, forgetting that she was here to ask questions.
This is obviously different from what is reported outside, and the person involved seems to be forced to do so.
The Ninth Princess couldn't help but ask, "Then will you marry the emperor's uncle?"
It would be better if I didn't get married...
Shen Xingwan looked at her sadly, "This... is not something I can decide, and I feel very sad..."
Fat Meow, who was watching on the sidelines: This woman is getting more and more difficult to act.
The Ninth Princess was stunned for a moment, "That's right. Who dares not to listen to what he decides?"
But she didn't hate Shen Xingwan so much in her heart. After all, she was forced to do it, unlike those coquettish bitches who took the initiative to cheat.
