After the replacement of the delicate imperial concubine, my emperor will never come to court again

Chapter 31 Questioning and Obstruction

Ren Qianyu sat next to Shen Yanzhi again. Both of them just drank tea from the cups in their hands, and they became quiet for a while.

Ren Qianyu had no intention of drinking tea, she just stared at the ground and thought fiercely about how to deal with Ren Yuhuan.

Ren Yuhuan told her not to seduce Shen Yanzhi, so she did the next best thing and hooked up with Shen Hebei!

What a foxy, bitch! The same virtue as her mother!
  Shen Yanzhi put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Ren Qianyu, who was still staring blankly at one place, and said, "Concubine, what do you think?"

When Ren Qianyu heard Shen Yanzhi's voice, she immediately raised her head and looked at Shen Yanzhi with a smile like a flower.

Ren Yuhuan wanted to escape from her grasp, how could it be possible?

"Your Majesty, this is really a great joy. However, I am afraid that the prince may have misunderstood me. My concubine told me yesterday that she did not want to get married and wanted to serve me in the palace for the rest of her life!"

Hearing this, Shen Yanzhi narrowed his eyes: "But this is already the best opportunity for her, right?"

Ren Qianyu smiled and waved her hand: "My concubine is still young. My mother said that she always has no rules at home. She asked me to bring her to the palace to learn the rules for a few years and then send her out to get married."

This is contrary to the information Shen Yanzhi sent to investigate. The imperial concubine did not lie.

And if you really want your daughter to make friends with the upper class, you won't send your daughter to the palace to be a maid.

Shen Yanzhi believed the concubine's words and felt a little relaxed.

"It's a pity, but I don't think my parents would agree to this marriage."

"And I think the Queen Mother may not agree, right?"

Ren Qianyu tested it step by step and looked at Shen Yanzhi's face.

"Perhaps the prince has already spoken to Ren Yuhuan's family members——"

Ren Qianyu immediately raised her voice and said, "No, my mother never mentioned this when she sent someone to deliver a food box to me, definitely not!"

So, Shen Hebei didn't even go to the Ren family to propose marriage, so he came to him first to propose marriage?

If Shen Hebei didn't even know this, why did he ask for a marriage?

Unrequited love?
  Shen Yanzhi suddenly looked up at the imperial concubine, looking for Ren Yuhuan's face on her face.

"Is there any wine?"

Ren Qianyu just thought that Shen Yanzhi was going to stay here for the night, and immediately called for people to prepare.

Shen Yan drank a glass of wine and thought about Ren Yuhuan's expression in the garden. How shy was he? How happy?

Ren Yuhuan may not be able to tell the imperial concubine anything, maybe she already has someone in mind...
  Shen Yanzhi thought that it had indeed been a while since he had seen Ren Yuhuan come to the corridor to create a chance encounter.

Ren Qianyu looked at Shen Yanzhi's expression, fearing that if he was happy and offered Ren Yuhuan a marriage, the matter would be over.

He immediately approached Shen Yanzhi with a smile and tapped the back of his hand: "Actually, Ren Yuhuan's daughter has told me all her thoughts."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said with a smile, "She had a sweetheart long before she entered the palace."

Shen Yan's hands involuntarily clenched into fists and flicked Ren Qianyu's fingers away.

"I thought I still had some unfinished business, so I left first."

Ren Qianyu was eager to leave Shen Yanzhi tonight, so she immediately stood up to see him off.

After Shen Yanzhi told her not to send her out, Ren Qianyu absorbed the smile from her tense face and said solemnly: "Take Ren Yuhuan!"

The old grandma immediately led people to arrest him personally, but found that Ren Yuhuan was not in the room at all.

It turned out that Ren Yuhuan was staring at the umbrella in the room, but he heard Shen Yanzhi coming.

She thought about it several times, but she still felt that she couldn't keep this umbrella.

Shen Hebei said he was going to see His Majesty, so he must not have gone far yet.

Ren Yuhuan thought this way, picked up the umbrella and went out through the back door.

Shen Hebei was still strolling in the garden, naturally not waiting for Ren Yuhuan.

However, when he saw Ren Yuhuan coming again, he smiled. “Your umbrella, Your Majesty.”

Ren Yuhuan rushed up, without looking at Shen Hebei, and held the umbrella straight out with both hands.

Shen Hebei looked at Ren Yuhuan's expression and knew that she had not heard about the marriage.

He immediately smiled tenderly, reached out and took the umbrella handle and hung it by his side.

"Since you don't like it, I'll take it back."

"No!"

Ren Yuhuan bit her lip, holding back her panic and shyness and said, "I dare not hide the prince's umbrella without permission. If the imperial concubine finds out, it will be difficult to explain."

Shen Hebei nodded without persistence and said, "Whatever you think is good, we'll do it, okay?"

Shen Hebei's smile was so gentle and warm, like a warm light shining on her humble body.

Ren Yuhuan waited until the magic of the smile passed, and immediately asked: "I forgot to ask just now, can the prince tell the slave about my mother's current situation, so as to alleviate the slave's pain of longing for her."

When Shen Hebei heard this, he smiled and said, "Of course."

As he said that, he led Ren Yuhuan all the way.

They were just talking about ordinary things, just small things.

However, Ren Yuhuan heard the same daily habits as his mother, and knew that Shen Hebei was not lying. He couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. His eyes were covered with mist, and he lowered his head and twisted his hands, and big pearls fell to the ground.

Ren Yuhuan didn't pay attention along the way, but she didn't expect that Shen Hebei would send her back to Yikun Palace!
  Fortunately, no one was seen along the way to Yikun Palace, and Ren Yuhuan was scared to death.

He quickly saluted Shen Hebei and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will go back now. Please leave earlier, Your Majesty."

However, Shen Yanzhi was stepping out from the threshold. Ren Yuhuan's back was facing the palace door, but Shen Hebei was facing directly.

Shen Hebei reached out and picked up the handkerchief and put it on Ren Yuhuan's face, catching a teardrop hanging on Ren Yuhuan's long eyelashes.

"I can take it as tears of joy, right?"

"Yes!"

Ren Yuhuan smiled and nodded vigorously at Shen Hebei.

"How unbecoming is it to hang out in front of the palace gate during the day?"

Shen Yanzhi scolded in a deep voice, which scared Ren Yuhuan to the point where he immediately turned over and knelt on the ground.

Shen Hebei stood in front of Ren Yuhuan: "Your Majesty, I was the one who pestered her to send her back to the palace. If Your Majesty wants to punish her, please punish me."

Ren Yuhuan was kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise his head to look at Shen Yanzhi's face, but just waiting tremblingly.

Shen Yanzhi glanced at Ren Yuhuan coldly and stopped looking at her. He just said to Shen Hebei, "If you are fine, please stop wandering around the harem and go back early."

When Shen Hebei heard this, he just smiled slightly, nodded in agreement, "Yes, thank you, Your Majesty, I will leave now."

As he said that, he stretched out his hands to help Ren Yuhuan.

But Ren Yuhuan avoided it.

Ren Yuhuan stood up from the ground and raised his eyes just in time to catch Shen Yanzhi's gaze.

In those dark eyes, there seemed to be a lot of suppressed anger behind the indifference. Ren Yuhuan did not dare to look directly and quickly lowered his head.

When Ren Qianyu heard the palace servant's reply, she stood up anxiously.

"Okay, she really went out to seduce the prince!"

The old nanny came closer and asked softly: "Mother, do you want to go out?"

Ren Qianyu leaned on the soft stool and put her legs on the soft stool: "What are you doing out there? Do you have to go out to rescue her? Let her go. No matter how His Majesty punishes her, she is asking for it!"
