Chapter 35
"Well, Concubine Yan returned to the door in three days today, the emperor has a decree..." Eunuch Li stepped forward and stared at Xueshu and said, Xueshu hurriedly knelt down, "Xueshu accepts the decree..."

"Fortunately, the Emperor Zhao said: Today, my daughter-in-law and Xiao Wuer return home, and I will give you a special reward..."

Xueshu listened to Eunuch Li's high-pitched voice recite the reward word by word with a stiff body, she was so surprised that she couldn't recover.When she stood up to receive the order, Xue Shu looked at the rare and rare treasures carried by the court ladies, and she shook her body unrealistically.

Ji Wuye only raised his eyebrows and smiled.

And the third aunt, the fourth aunt, and the fifth aunt had already leaned weakly on their respective daughters, mainly because they were too stimulated.

The second concubine, however, ran to the prince with a smile on her face and gave a deep bow, she was extremely enthusiastic and courteous, "I have met His Royal Highness, and I know that His Highness is coming today, Jiao Er, she has been looking forward to it all morning..."

Everyone was in an uproar, and the other aunts glared at the second aunt angrily, it was too hypocritical.

His Highness the Crown Prince's eyebrows lit up when he heard this, and his face was full of joy.

"Xuejiao has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The fourth sister Yan Xuejiao's voice came from behind everyone at just the right time, that extremely delicate voice was really charming to the bone.Everyone turned around.

Xueshu narrowed her eyes all of a sudden, it was obvious that the fourth sister at this moment had been dressed up with a lot of thought, her face was picturesque, her posture was magnificent, her eyes were as affectionate as spring water, and her gestures were graceful and luxurious.Her elegance at the moment surpassed all three older sisters.Just now he didn't know when she left, but when she appeared at this moment, her thoughts were clearly revealed.Xue Shu was surprised to find that the Fourth Sister's dress and demeanor had imitated Qin Birou from Qianqing Palace, she felt ashamed.

As for the prince, he seemed dumbfounded.

Second Aunt glanced at everyone proudly, as if the prince was about to become her son-in-law.

"Follow me to the study." Suddenly, the Backer King gave a deep and sharp voice.

Xue Shu turned her head and saw Ji Wuye rubbing her nose and smiling at her father, obviously her father's callousness was meant for him.

Xue Shu hurriedly pulled Xi Bao to her side, and whispered into her ear.Xi Bao's eyes lit up, and Pi Dian ran over to cover the box with all the gifts brought by Ji Wuye, and led the guards and maids into the courtyard of Princess Backer like sheep.Seeing this, the other aunts grabbed their skirts and wanted to vomit blood.

Ji Wuye smiled, and glanced at Xue Shu meaningfully before leaving, who said she was stupid?She is smarter than anyone right now.

Xueshu happily went to the kitchen with her mother.

It wasn't until the food was put on the table that Ji Wuye came out of the study step by step with his father. Xueshu stared at him, suddenly feeling very weird.Apparently, he and his father had a good understanding. The two made eye contact, silently, but with a tacit understanding.There was a hint of tenderness and appreciation in the father's eyes.As the crown prince, the prince doesn't seem to be important in the eyes of his father.If not, the father would have left the prince to have a secret talk with him in the study for so long.

Looking back at the prince, he was sitting on the grand master's chair, being served by the second mother and the fourth sister very comfortably. With frivolous eyebrows, he flirted with the fourth sister indulgently, and did not shy away from the three aunts and several sisters and brothers-in-law next to him. Strange eyes.Xueshu's heart suddenly became clear. The prince was enshrined as the heir apparent by the emperor since he was a child.If you don't say that his city mansion is deeply hidden, it is incompetent.It is reasonable for the father not to wait to see him.

On the other hand, Ji Wuye's eyes flashed darkly, his sharp aura was calm and introverted, on the surface he looked a little cynical and unrestrained, but he gave people the feeling of a sleeping lion, with a contemptuous arrogance, unruly, If he doesn't sing, he's done. No one dares to underestimate him.

Seeing him walking slowly, the three brothers-in-law hurriedly stood up and walked towards him, greeting him with respectful hands and smiling faces.Ji Wuye grinned, with a faint expression, and with a wave of his hand, the royal dignity was fully displayed.

Xueshu stared at her eyes and was a little lost in thought, but if Ji Wuye has no desire to fight for the position, then let it be, if not...

Xueshu's heart jumped suddenly and she didn't dare to think about it anymore. That man was born with a submissive kingly temperament, no matter whether the prince is true or not, he will not be his opponent.Thinking of this, Xue Shu's breath suddenly became short of breath.

A sharp gaze swept towards her, Xue Shu raised her head and met Ji Wuye's eyes as deep as deep pools, with some scrutinizing eyes with a bit of teasing that seemed to see everything, Xue Shu suddenly felt that this man was very hateful, His gaze directly made her feel invisible, as if he had spied out that she was just pretending to be stupid.Xue Shu turned her face away abruptly.

When she was seated at the banquet, Xueshu was so angry that she didn't want to sit next to Ji Wuye, so she walked to the last seat and sat down.The mother came over and brought her to Ji Wuye's side again in a reproachful manner. Ji Wuye didn't look at her but suddenly let out a series of light laughter, full of complacency, which made Xue Shu frown and was very irritable.

Although the crown prince is honorable, this time is after all a family banquet at the King's Mansion, and he sits on the upper right of his father, just opposite to Ji Wuye.Next to him, the second sister and the second aunt sat down on duty.All the aunts, sisters and brothers-in-law accompanied the next one in turn.The banquet was very dull at the beginning, no one spoke, Ji Wuye happily drank the nourishing soup his mother made for him, grinning so much that he could tie a donkey.Xue Shu was so depressed that she didn't look at him.Everyone took care of their sons-in-law at the banquet. The second sister and second aunt stood up frequently to pick up vegetables for the prince, which made everyone feel shameful. However, the second aunt's eyes were sharp, and everyone dared not speak out.

Xue Shu didn't understand her father's attitude. They were five sisters, and her father was the only one who cared about her marriage.When the other elder sisters got married, he simply ignored them, and easily married off his daughters without even inquiring about the situation of her husband's family.Just like now, the fourth sister's performance today is very telling, but the father turned a blind eye, his indifferent expression seemed to turn a blind eye.I really don't know if he is pampering Fourth Sister, or if he doesn't want to care about her future.If not, the position of Crown Princess is now vacant. With the relationship between the father and the emperor, as long as he is willing to contribute, it will not be difficult for the fourth sister to take that position.But the father was just indifferent, and even stood by.Everyone said that the father was very protective of his shortcomings, but in fact, all of his father's protection was used on her alone, and he didn't pay half his attention to the other sisters.

Alas, Xue Shu sighed.

"Ah..." Suddenly he groaned in pain, and the third brother-in-law Lu Yuyi suddenly turned pale and fell down clutching his stomach.

Immediately afterwards, the three aunts, the eldest sister, the eldest brother-in-law, the second sister, the second brother-in-law, and the third sister all slid down the table one after another holding their stomachs in pain. Everyone reacted differently. Embarrassed.

Xue Shu was dumbfounded, and before she could react, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also let out a scream and collapsed on the ground clutching his stomach.

"Ah, it turns out that there is poison in the food..." The second aunt screamed first, and the fourth sister hurriedly knelt on the ground and hugged the prince, "Mother, what should I do? The prince is so painful that he is about to pass out."
